Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?
Chapter 124: Release Ji Nuan Soon
Ji Nuan hugged her knees as she sat by the window. His eyes remained fixed on the dark sky outside.
Locked here, it feels like time has been frozen.
Only when he heard the sound of a car approaching did he quickly stand up.
He turned around and ran towards the door, sticking his ear to the door.
This was the third floor, making it difficult to hear the movements from the first floor. Despite this, he still heard the echoes of the door opening. Following him, the sound of footsteps slowly approached as if moving up from the first floor.
Ji Nuan raised her hand and hit the door twice to tell anyone who came that she was locked here.
“You still have the power to hit the door. Do you think the one who came was Jing Shen?”
Suddenly, a somewhat unfamiliar voice sounded from behind the door. That low and heavy voice seemed to belong to a middle-aged man. His tone was ice-cold and even seemed to underestimate.
Ji Nuan's hand immediately stiffened at the door.
“Nona Ji, I'm Mo Jingshen's father. I have invited you today to stay here for one night with no intention of hurting you. After tomorrow, you will be able to regain your freedom.”
Ji Nuan could hear the hidden meaning behind Mo Shaoze's use of the word 'freedom.
He was silent for a moment before raising his voice to say, “Since you are Jing Shen's father, I should at least call you as 'father' by name. I've been considered part of your family. Why did you lock me up ... "
"I'm afraid I can't afford to be called a 'father' by you," Mo Jingshen said coldly. “Tonight, Jing Shen has an important task to complete. He doesn't have time to deal with you. Rest assured and stay here tonight.”
"Where is Mo Jingshen now?" Ji Nuan instinctively had a bad premonition.
“From today onwards, his actions have nothing to do with you. You can only stay here tonight, so don't run away and ruin her job.”
After coldly leaving these words, Mo Shaoze walked away from the door. He did not plan to waste any more breath for her.
At the same time, the sound of another car approaching suddenly sounded.
Ji Nuan suppressed the layer of insecurity in her heart and leaned against the door to listen closely. Not long after, he faintly heard the sound of a stick knocking on the floor. Then followed by Elder Mo's furious roar towards the stairs, "Have you locked that Ji girl here? Release him immediately!”
It's Grandpa Mo!
Ji Nuan frantically slammed into the wall with force: “Grandfather! I'm here! Grandpa-"
There was a momentary silence outside. Grandfather Mo most likely could not hear the sound he made from his floor.
Elder Mo shouted furiously. He came in too much of a hurry, and his words were a little breathless. “Ji Nuan and Jing Shen's relationship is excellent. If tonight, you dare force this loving little couple to live in torment from today onwards, never think of stepping through the door of the Mo family again! I will not recognize such a cruel and merciless son!”
"Dad, calm your anger." Mo Shaoze almost went down the stairs completely. His tone was not rushed. “Now, the necessary scenes have been prepared. What needs to happen is most likely already happening. Even if you fly, you won't help. From today onwards, there was no way Jing Shen would remain domestically. Years ago, he had accumulated a lot of success in America. In the future, after inheriting Shine, she will stay even longer in America. This great Hai Cheng and the mediocre young miss Ji family are no match for him!”
“It was Jing Shen's own right to decide who was a match for him! Did you think that back then, Jing Shen and Ji Nuan's marriage was fully arranged by me? If not for Jing Shen's approval, even if I brandished a knife to her neck, she wouldn't have married him!” Elder Mo said firmly.
“So, how about that? Back when Jing Shen left America, I already warned her. If not for him being so elusive, I wouldn't have needed to use such a method! He belonged to Shine and could not remain detained in Hai Cheng like that. In order for him to leave, he must be free from this insignificant grip of Ji Nuan!” Mo Shaoze's reply was cold and arrogant. He clearly had no intention of giving up.
“Let go of my ass! You have kidnapped Ji Nuan and drugged your own son, locked him in a hotel room with An Shuyan! Did you learn such devious methods from your American friends?”
Upon hearing these words, Ji Nuan, who stood still at the door from beginning to end, felt as if she had been plunged into a puddle of ice-cold water. From head to toe, his blood lost its warmth.
“Because I have sent Shu Yan to Hai Cheng, of course I have no further plans to return him to the An family in America. He should marry Jing Shen.” Mo Jingshen's tone was cold and arrogant. “You are old. You don't have to worry about marriage among the younger generation. As long as we pass through this night smoothly, Shu Yan's stomach will probably have a great-grandchild that you crave.”
“Hah! Do you want to force Jing Shen to death or force me to death?!”
Mo Shaoze's voice was cold and calm. “Dad, you came all the way today. Even if you manage to take Ji Nuan away, what might you possibly accomplish? Before I came here, Jing Shen and Shu Yan had spent over half an hour together. Right now, so much time has passed. With such medicine, let alone Jing Shen's young and fit body, even people in their seventies and eighties like you would not be able to resist it.”
"You are truly a disgrace!" Elder Mo suddenly raised his staff, and violently dropped it onto Mo Shaoze's body. “Why do I have a child like that! Immediately call your men to let Jingshen and An Shuyan out! I can't see Jing Shen being destroyed by you like this!”
"It's too late. The effect of the drug is very fast. No human can resist it. If you go and open the door now, you will definitely interrupt the good thing for Jing Shen."
“You unfilial son! I'm really sorry I didn't strangle you to death in a blanket fifty years ago!”
Mo Shaoze was unaffected and smiled coldly. "If I die, where would you go to find such an amazing grandson?"
Elder Mo angrily raised his cane to push it to the side. He was counting on her to rush up. "Where did you lock Ji Nuan?"
Mo Shaoze saw that Elder Mo had already moved upstairs and guessed he had heard the continuous sound of slamming from Ji Nuan hitting the door. His gaze became cold and heavy due to unhappiness, but as the elder had found it, he followed behind with an ugly expression.
Ji Nuan was behind the door; her lower lip was torn from biting her. He slammed the door with force. "Grandfather, I'm here!"
The sound of baton taps and panicked footsteps approached. Elder Mo climbed up and slammed his staff into the door. He was agitated with anger. Turning around, he glared at Mo Shaoze who was following him: "If you don't let go of Ji Nuan today! If you dare to cause trouble between Jing Shen and Ji Nuan, this old man will soon die before your eyes, did you hear me!"
"Dad." Mo Shaoze's face was as cold as a rock.
“Don't waste time with words! Open the door and immediately release Ji Nuan!”
