Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?
Chapter 125: Why Are You Back?
"If this old man can't save his own granddaughter and son-in-law today, I will make you die with me!" Elder Mo climbed the stairs, trembling in anger.
Mo Shaoze saw that not only did he put up a face, and his expression instantly turned cold. “Ji Nuan can be released, but even if you take her to look for Jing Shen now, the result cannot be undone. What's the point of doing something unnecessary?”
“Get go, you dog! Jing Shen would definitely not touch that brat from the An family!" Elder Mo firmly claimed. “Do you release it or not? Are you trying to push our family into the ruin of — because I beat you, this unfilial son, to death, and brought our Mo family into a chaotic and messy house? Are you just going to stop when that happens?”
Mo Shaoze was silent for a moment before he suddenly glanced towards the guard standing near the stairs.
The guard nodded and brought the key forward, unlocking the room where Ji Nuan was locked up.
The sound of the door being opened rang. The next second, Ji Nuan pushed the door open forcefully and stumbled out. As he raised his eyes, he saw Mo Shaoze standing in the hallway with an unhappy expression. His face turned pale as he moved to look at Elder Mo.
“Bocah Ji! Are you hurt anywhere? Quickly, tell grandpa!” Elder Mo walked over tremblingly with the support of his cane. He watched her with eyes filled with heartache.
Ji Nuan's lips turned red from the blood from her bite. He stared silently at the elder for a long time, ascertaining the truth of the man's anger and heartache before he suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart. He tried his best to ask calmly, "Grandfather, what you said earlier, is that all true?"
Knowing that he had heard it, Elder Mo closed his eyes. He obviously didn't want her to suffer too much as he gently comforted, “Don't worry. I believe in Jing Shen. He can definitely pass through.”
Mo Shaoze's eyes were dark and cold. “Dad, you've seen that guy. Can you be sure now?”
Elder Mo had turned around to scold him, but Mo Shaoze had already called the guards. "Send the Elder back to Mo's house."
“You want me to go back alone? No way, Ji Nuan has to come with me!”
Elder Mo held his staff with one hand, while his other hand quickly stretched out to hold Ji Nuan's wrist. He pulled her behind him; her old, slightly angled body kept Ji Nuan safe.
Ji Nuan looked at the elder in front of her but could not say a word. His eyes were cold as he looked at the expressionless Mo Shaoze.
Mo Shaoze did not care about Ji Nuan's gaze as he slowly and coldly said, "I've allowed you to take a quick look, to make sure that he has done nothing wrong here. However, before tomorrow morning, he was not allowed to leave this place. He must remain obedient in my sight and cannot be allowed to ruin this good thing between Jing Shen and Shu Yan.”
Ji Nuan's breathing almost shook. He suddenly opened his mouth. “You have used such a method to force him to be cornered. Have you thought about what consequences you will have to face tomorrow!”
Mo Jingshen chuckled in disdain. “Consequences? Of course, you will sign the divorce papers. Do you think after tonight Jing Shen will still be yours?”
In both of his lives, Ji Nuan had never been angry to the point of trembling. If the person in front of his eyes was not Mo Jingshen's father, he would have attacked him with a knife.
Sensing his agitated emotions, Elder Mo pressed his hand. "Ji boy, go back with grandpa first."
"He can't leave!" Mo Shaoze's gaze was slightly displeased.
"He has to come back with me!" Elder Mo firmly held onto Ji Nuan's wrist, refusing to leave her here. “He is Jing Shen's man. Even if Jing Shen is not here, just based on how Ji Nuan called me 'grandfather', I must make sure I bring him back safely to the Mo family!"
"Shu Yan can also call you 'grandfather'." Mo Jingshen's expression was cold and heavy. "After tonight, Jing Shen will understand that the person who is most suitable for her is still Shu Yan."
Elder Mo spoke low with anger. "Anyone who dares to touch my granddaughter-in-law must first step on my body!"
"Dad!" Mo Shaoze's face darkened while his voice contained warning and dissatisfaction. "At your age, you shouldn't bother the younger generation!"
Elder Mo refused to move. Even though he was old, his gaze remained bright. He was not inferior in any way when compared to his fifty-year-old son.
Seeing this scene, Mo Shaoze furrowed his brows after a while and waved his hands impatiently. "Alright, alright. Let them go. Send the elder back to the old house.”
Elder Mo's expression did not warm up. He was angry, and his face was pale, as he led Ji Nuan down the stairs.
“It's okay if you want to bring Ji Nuan back to Mo's house. Tomorrow morning, I will have Jing Shen and Shu Yan go greet you, and ask her to directly sign the divorce papers," Mo Shaoze stood by the stairs, saying in a heavy voice.
Elder Mo let out a cold snort and paid him no heed.
Ji Nuan was taken into the car. Elder Mo sat in the front seat and ordered the driver to start driving with a heavy expression.
He turned around to comfort her. “My son, don't worry. I believe in Jing Shen. Based on his determination, he would definitely be able to cope with everything that happened tonight. He loves you and wants to keep your marriage. Other than you, he won't touch another woman. Trust in your grandfather.”
Ji Nuan had suppressed her emotions for a long time, trying her best to keep her composure in front of the elder to prevent her from worrying. She gently asked, “So now, she is actually with An Shuyan? They're locked together?"
Elder Mo sighed softly. “I know better than anyone any type of person like Mo Jingshen's father. That he could lock you in here today forcefully meant that things must have gone as he had planned on Jing Shen's side. If not for me hearing some rumors from the people on Shao Ze's side, I wouldn't have been able to rush here to take you away.”
"Since you can find me, does that mean you know where Jing Shen is?" Ji Nuan furrowed her brows.
Elder Mo shook his head. “Before coming here, I've sent my people to search. But Hai Cheng was huge, and there were over ten thousand four and five star hotels. All Grandpa can do now is save you. Although I cannot find Jing Shen, you are his heart. I can't let you get hurt."
"Stop the car." Ji Nuan suddenly said. "Grandfather, let me down."
Elder Mo was silent for a moment. It's not that he doesn't understand his character. After all, this was a marriage between her and Mo Jingshen. If he feels the need to say or do something, it is not right for him to stop it.
The car stopped, and Ji Nuan suddenly pushed the door open and came down.
He turned around and ran back to the villa, rushing in before the main gate closed.
Mo Shaoze heard a quick step outside the door. He turned around and saw it was actually Ji Nuan. His heavy and cold eyes watched him apathetically.
"You've been taken away by the older ones, why are you back?" Mo Shaoze said coldly.
“You should be well aware that in An Shuyan's matter, Jing Shen saved some face for the An family and you. However, now that you have used such an unreasonable method to hold it in, you might not be able to continue suppressing it the way you want!" Ji Nuan did not care about the two guards who were blocking him. Her cold eyes were directed at Mo Shaoze.
