Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

As they entered the Yu Garden villa, Xia Tian completely gave up on sending her any more messages and directly called her.

Ji Nuan picked up the phone while changing her shoes. As she was not paying too much attention to it, she accidentally turned on the speakers.

In an instant, from the phone came Xia Tian’s roar: “I don’t care! Since you broke my red thread of love, you have to find me a man with an attractive index like that of Doctor Sheng within half a year! Someone tall, who has an amazing job, and is outstanding in every area! Otherwise, my wounded little heart cannot heal!”

Ji Nuan: “…”

“I want a man! I want a handsome one! Ji Nuan! You have to compensate me!”

Ji Nuan: “…”

Auntie Chen had just arrived at the door to welcome them. When she heard these words, she could hardly hold in her smile.

The corner of Ji Nuan’s lips turned down. She rushed to turn off the speakers, bringing up the phone to press against her ears as she softly said, “Be quiet! How many miles away are you trying to let that loud voice of yours be heard?”

Xia Tian: “… Fuck, don’t tell me, was I on the speaker earlier?”

“Indeed.”

“…”

Ji Nuan turned back to see Mo Jingshen who had just walked in. His gaze focused on her with some hidden meaning.

Ji Nuan pointed at the phone that had already been hung up on, explaining, “After staying in the hospital for so long, Xia Tian is really about to crumble from the boredom. Right now, she’s really becoming smitten as she please, ahhh…”

Mo Jingshen was expressionless. “If I hear another word related to that Sheng one from her mouth, the Xia family will immediately arrive from City S to bring her back. She won’t ever get to even think about taking one step back into Hai Cheng.”

“Whenever we chat, we’re always so unrestrained. Just listen and forget about it, don’t take it to heart.” Ji Nuan knew that he would definitely be able to put his words into actions.

Mo Jingshen faintly curved his lips, staring at her as he huskily said, “Stay further away from those men who are trying to approach you, en?”

His tone sounded calm and unaffected, but it also contained a hint of warning.

The next day.

Ji Nuan was in the Yu Garden’s study when she suddenly received two videos in her email box. She opened it and caught a glimpse of it before directly closing it. She then smiled thinly while her gaze turned cold.

In the evening, she received Mo Jingshen’s call. She eyed the laptop screen on the desk with one hand under her chin as she lazily said, “Why are you calling me at this time? Could it be that you have to stay overtime in the company again?”

Mo Jingshen softly chuckled as his clear and deep voice rang. “Are you so afraid of being at home alone?”

“I just can’t bear for you to work till late and have to take the long drive home. After all, the Yu Garden is slightly further away from Ao Lan International.”

“Even if Mrs. Mo is staying in the outskirts of Hai Cheng, this home is still a place I should return to.”

Ji Nuan’s lips instantly curved into a smile. Her voice was clear, happy, and soft as she asked, “Has the cooperation item with Shine Group ended yet?”

Actually, what she wanted to ask was whether An Shuyan and Mo Shaoze had already returned to America. However, when the words arrived at her lips, she could not help but change the method of asking.

Mo Jingshen did not answer. After being silent for a moment, he said, “Tonight, I’ll bring you to meet someone. Wait for me at home obediently.”

Ji Nuan glanced at the time. “What time tonight?”

“Before 6:00 p.m.”

“Sure, but I’m dropping by the studio later. There’s a small situation there. I should be back in the evening.”

“Has the financial crisis there been resolved?”

Ji Nuan paused for a moment. “It’s fine. They’re all small problems. I can resolve them.”

Mo Jingshen was silent for a few seconds: “Head there early and come back early. In the next few days, try to avoid going out too much.”

“I understand.”

Ji Nuan could somewhat guess the meaning hidden in his words. There was definitely a reason behind his request for her to move back to the Yu Garden.

Since he did not explain, she would not ask.

——

Before noon, Ji Nuan stepped out of the house and headed straight for the studio.

She had only just arrived at the studio when upon catching one glance of her, Xiao Ba ran over as though she had seen her savior. “Boss Nuan! You’re finally here! If you were any later, I would have died from the anxiety!”

“What’s going on? Earlier on, you were so flustered over the phone. Which investor came to make a commotion?” Ji Nuan unhurriedly approached her office.

The two arrived at the office door. Xiao Ba had yet to speak when they suddenly heard the sound of a woman speaking through the door. Every word and every phrase contained all sorts of arrogance and mockery.

Ji Nuan stood outside the door to listen for a moment before pushing the door open and walking in.

“Immediately bring over the person in charge. How did the thirty million yuan we invested turn into zero so quickly? It hasn’t even been half a year since the investment was made. Not only did we not see any profits, but you’ve also changed ownership. Right now, you can’t even bring my money out! Going on about what studio, isn’t this just an empty capital with the title of a studio!”

Ji Nuan eyed the woman standing in front of the desk as she pointed at the financial supervisor and scolded endlessly. That woman was likely around 30 years old. She was tall and beautiful, her clothing was trendy, and her skin was well maintained.

“Boss, this is CEO Jin. Previously when CEO Han was still around, she took the relationship between their company and Han Corporation into account and invested thirty million here. What she is referring to is a contract meant to last three years. They were promised a profit of at least 20% every half a year. It has already been more than half a year, but the promised profit hasn’t been given and even the money initially invested is gone…” Xiao Ba stood by Ji Nuan’s side and softly explained the situation.

“CEO Jin? Isn’t she the one in charge of financial affairs in the company named Tian Sheng Investment?” Ji Nuan calmly asked.

Xiao Ba nodded her head: “That’s right!”

CEO Jin noticed the sounds from behind her and turned back to look at the person by the door.

Xiao Ba was only an intern. CEO Jin’s gaze moved away from her face and landed on Ji Nuan.

When she saw Ji Nuan, her eyes narrowed.

Ji Nuan wore a white, goat fur sweater. It was soft and suitable; casual and close-fitting. The light-brown coat she wore was also very low-key. She stood there calmly, and her gaze was fixed in CEO Jin’s direction. Unlike the other people who appeared to be too compliant, her gaze carried some politeness and a distant, faint smile. Of course, that smile was not too obvious and was indistinct to the point where it seemed like it would disappear with one blink.

CEO Jin coldly harrumphed and placed her expensive, international branded bag to the side. She turned her head firmly and began to size up Ji Nuan: “You wouldn’t happen to be the new boss that these people have been mentioning, are you? Miss Ji, oh?”

“Pleasure to meet you, I’m Ji Nuan,” Ji Nuan answered simply. Her gaze was cold and indifferent but not too distant. She imperceptibly maintained a strong position that could control any sort of situation, but her restraint was extremely well-done.

“En, I’ve heard of you. The eldest young daughter of the Ji Corporation.” CEO Jin gave a disapproving laugh. “I heard that you’re only twenty years old. At such a young age, you actually dare to dream of taking over two property companies and combining them into a studio. Although I admire your courage, after making such a big fuss, how can it be that your financial state is in a complete deficit? Isn’t Miss Ji afraid of losing the Ji family’s face if this situation were to get out to the public?”
