Ji Nuan stared at him for a moment, but in the next second, his kiss landed.

"Why are you kissing as you please right now..."

"Just kissing?" Mo Jingshen's smiling tone carried a hint of teasing.

Could it be that he wanted to do it again?

When he fed her earlier, could it have been only to replenish her physical strength?

After another kiss, he finally released her. He held the back of her head in his palm, leaning against her forehead and focusing on her.

"Mrs. Mo once said that nobody is allowed to have ideas about your man." He lowered his eyes to admire the watery brightness in her eyes. He was satisfied with the slightly dazed expression she had after his kiss. "Likewise, I definitely won't be polite to whoever dares to have thoughts about Mrs. Mo."

"..."

Mo Jingshen actually had such a tyrannical side. Yet, it did not seem deliberate.

Furthermore, when this man was being tyrannical, it did not cause others to be unhappy at all. Instead, it caused her to instinctively want to state her own position clearly.

From the start, whatever had happened between her and Sheng Yihan was Sheng Yihan's problem alone. It had nothing to do with her.

Ji Nuan stared at him. Abruptly, she took the initiative to hold onto his shoulders as she leaned up, giving him a deep kiss. Under the man's gaze, which had darkened in an instant, she sincerely said, "All right!"

Her one word was sincere, seeming as if she was offering the small little world hidden in her heart entirely into his palms.

Mo Jingshen lowered his gaze, directly pressing her onto the bed. Ji Nuan fell backward, looking at the man on top of her.

The distinguished and refined man was the unapproachable CEO Mo in the eyes of others. But at this moment, he was seductive and charming like a strikingly passionate demon.

Irreplaceable in this world.

——

On the other side, even when the evening party ended, An Shuyan still did not manage to wait for Mo Jingshen's return.

All of Hai Cheng knew that Mo Jingshen was a cold and rational man. Yet, this man, who was always unmoved by emotions, had actually lost his composure for Ji Nuan.

In the early morning, An Shuyan met Mo Shaoze outside the elevator in King's Court Hotel.

"Uncle Mo." An Shuyan politely nodded her head.

Mo Shaoze glanced at her, coldly asking, "Your face looks so pale. Didn't sleep last night?"

An Shuyan smiled slightly. "I did sleep. Maybe it's because I slept too late, so I don't look that well."

"In the period you've been in the country, based on everything you've seen and heard, is it like last night? Towards that Ji Nuan, is Jing Shen serious?" Mo Shaoze's brows were slightly heavy and dark.

An Shuyan was silent for a moment, but she slowly nodded her head.

Mo Shaoze first raised his brows in dissatisfaction before he narrowed his eyes coldly. He did not lose himself in anger.

After a moment, Mo Shaoze's slowly and heavily asked, "In that case, the position of Mrs. Mo, do you still want it?"

An Shuyan was silent for a long time. She took in two breaths; her eyes slightly stubborn. "Uncle Mo, what you should be asking me is, do I still want the man, Mo Jingshen?"

Without waiting for Mo Shaoze to speak, she softly but resolutely said, "My answer is, I do."

Mo Shaoze sternly stared at her for an extended period of time before waving his hand. "All right. I understand. Go back and rest."

An Shuyan politely and respectfully nodded at him. "Thank you, Uncle Mo."

Finishing her words, she turned around.

——

When Shen Mu sent her phone over, Ji Nuan was drying her hair in the bathroom. The sound of the hair dryer rang loudly. She only knew that Shen Mu had delivered her bag and Mo Jingshen's items.

When she walked out with her hair dry, Shen Mu was respectfully and softly speaking to Mo Jingshen outside the door. "All right, CEO Mo, I understand."

Mo Jingshen signaled for him to leave. Shen Mu nodded, turned to give Ji Nuan a polite smile and left.

"We didn't bring our phones. How did Shen Mu know we're here?" As Mo Jingshen closed the room door, she casually asked while glancing toward Shen Mu's back heading toward the elevator.

Mo Jingshen mildly glanced at her, using his chin to point toward the handset in the room.

Ji Nuan reacted slowly, receiving her bag. She found the set of clothes she wore last night from before she had changed into the gown in Sheng Yihan's car. However, it only contained her clothes. Her coat was most likely left behind in Sheng Yihan's car.

With regards to Sheng Yihan, she hesitated for a moment and did not mention him. After she changed her clothes, she realized that her phone had been left uncharged since last night. She brought out the charging cable from her bag and placed it on the bedside table with her phone.

Right after she plugged it in and turned it on, the sound of messages arriving rang.

The latest message that showed up on the screen was from an unsaved contact.

[Rest well]

Simply two words. It did not even contain a simple full stop.

Ji Nuan glanced at those words, her fingers pausing by the screen. After staring at it for a long moment, she finally guessed who it was from. She opened her phone gallery to look for the picture she had taken of Xia Tian's medical record. It contained the mobile number of her doctor.

As expected, it was Sheng Yihan.

In those years, Sheng Yihan and her have always cooperatively been indifferent to one another. Even when they passed by each other in the hospital, in the instant their eyes met, their gazes had always been indifferent. He was his orthopedics specialist, and she was her Mrs. Mo. They had long become two unrelated individuals, yet suddenly, he seemed to be intentionally intruding into her life once more.

What was the reason?

Was it because he was about to formally and properly return to the Sheng family? Because one side of Hai Cheng's four prominent families was about to be in his hands?

Was he really... like how she had once known, hiding a wealth of ambition under his cold and charming good looks?

Mo Jingshen dialed the company. The moment he turned back from the window, he saw her thoughtful expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ji Nuan raised her head. Her gaze landed on the man's ridiculously gentle and perfect face illuminated by the sunlight. Her expression remained calm, but her fingers had already speedily erased the message that should not have been there. "Nothing much."

Mo Jingshen glanced at the woman by the bed, his eyes narrowing.

The little woman's fingers quickly tapped across the screen. He glanced indifferently at the sight and took a few broad steps with his long legs, taking the phone from her.

Ji Nuan wanted to reach out to snatch it back, but because of the man's apathetic gaze, she kept her hand back.

That message was already deleted. Right now, what Mo Jingshen was looking at was the most recent message displayed. It was from Xia Tian who had sent three messages in a row.

[My warmth![1.Nuan means warmth] My heart has received a large blow. I've lost sleep for many nights! That Doctor Sheng is really ridiculously handsome! After interacting with him for so many days in the hospital, I've actually only just come to realize he is such a high-quality product!]

[Are you really familiar with Doctor Sheng? Does he have autism? Otherwise, why is he always so cold. He won't even say an extra word of rubbish. He can freeze people with his gaze, but taking his face into account, I will forgive this ice mountain!]

[Aaah! I really can't sleep! Also, this Doctor Sheng's five features are so pleasing. His nose is ridiculously sharp and straight. Don't they say that you can know how a man looks below based on his nose? This ice mountain looks so refined in his white coat, but it completely fails to disguise his well-crafted physique! Wuu, I'm so moved. I really want to bed him! Nuan Nuan, since you've known him from the past, has your heart ever moved for him before?]

She saw that Mo Jingshen's expression remained unaffected, but the temperature in the air had clearly dropped by several degrees.

Ji Nuan held her forehead.

She was done!
