Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?
Chapter 73: What If My Husband is Seized by Others?
Mo Jingshen's gaze passed through his face like the wind as he nonchalantly declared, "Vegetables."
"Oh."
Ji Nuan was a little embarrassed as she wrote next to the vegetable plate option. From what she said, she understood that Mo Jingshen preferred vegetarian food, so she picked a few more lighter items.
After that, he handed the menu to her. “Try to see if there is anything you want to add? I didn't order too much."
Mo Jingshen picked it up but did not see it, directly handing it over to the server near the table.
"What do you both want to drink?"
"Do you have any warm water? Normal drinking water can also.” asked Ji Nuan.
“Yes, I will send it to you soon. How about you, Mister?”
"Either."
Ji Nuan immediately raised her head to observe Mo Jingshen, silently recalling.she knew very well that Mo Jingshen did not like milk. He also does not like tea or coffee. Just like him, he was loyal to ordinary water. Her choices were in healthy food, so she somewhat began to understand her taste.
The server holds the menu and leaves. Not long after, the clear soup broth Ji Nuan ordered was delivered.
Less than a minute later, steam began to rise between the two of them.
“Previously, I was worried you wouldn't get used to such an environment.” Ji Nuan retrieved the glass pot sent by the server. It contains warm water with lemon slices.
Mo Jingshen's charming brows moved slightly. "What do you mean?"
“For people like you who usually spend more time at social events and official places frequented, chances are you won't be too fond of hot pot.”
“It's true I don't like it, but that doesn't mean I won't eat it.” Mo Jingshen simply smiled and did not tease her with the topic of his choice that almost deviated from the norm.
"Then, do you enjoy sweets?" Ji Nuan suddenly held her face with one hand, staring at the handsome face of the man through the white steam.
He's observing. "Are you planning to start understanding my taste?"
Ji Nuan calmly smiled. “I have no choice. I suddenly experienced a strong wave of danger today. If I don't take the initiative, what if my husband is snatched away by someone else!"
Mo Jingshen chuckled.
"I guess you definitely don't like candy," Ji Nuan murmured to herself.
This was because the last time he bought his rice ball soup, there were many left, but he did not take a single bribe. It was too sweet, and most likely he did not enjoy it.
He raised his eyebrows, and he assumed it meant he was right.
These hot pot foods feed them well. Ji Nuan kept asking all the time, while Mo Jingshen occasionally answered and sometimes ignored her.
In the end, Ji Nuan even asked what color she liked before she finally could not tolerate it and brought this little lady, who had suddenly become a good disciple, out of Hotpot City.
...----------------...
Ji Nuan stayed at home for two days to browse through the documents and reports of the acquired companies. He didn't leave the house.
In this period, Ji Mengran called twice. He didn't even answer once, pretending to be dead and stupid.
The night before the weekend of Elder Mo's birthday celebration, Ji Mengran called again.
Ji Nuan just came out of the study. He glanced at the number and picked up the phone expressionlessly.
"Sister, these few days you and Brother Jing Shen did not return to Yu Garden?" Ji Mengran asked carefully.
Ji Nuan's tone was in no hurry. "No. Why why anyway? You went to Yu Garden to look for us?”
“I... In the afternoon, I had a reunion with my classmates and passed Yu Garden. I wanted to go in to look for you, but Aunt Chen said you and Brother Jing Shen have not returned to stay in Yu Garden recently.”
Passing Yu Garden?
Yu Park rests on the south side of Hai Cheng city area. It was also positioned in a quiet environment. Regardless of where Ji Mengran went, there was no way she would pass through Yu Garden on her way back.
“It's true we haven't been back there. Your sister-in-law and I have enjoyed our little world. We will most likely not return to Yu Garden for a few more days.” Ji Nuan smiled coldly.
“Can't we meet tomorrow at the Mo family home? Why are you in such a hurry to find me today?” Ji Nuan was too lazy to act excited, rejecting coldly. “If there is anything else, let's talk tomorrow. I'm busy."
“I brought you something nice, Brother. If it's convenient, let me go find you.” Ji Mengran was very determined.
Ji Nuan was silent for a moment. He did want to see what exactly he was trying to sell here. Tomorrow is Grandpa Mo's birthday celebration. In the past two days, Ji Mengran had earnestly tried to contact him, which indicated that there must be something planned.
...----------------...
He met Ji Mengran at the dessert shop. Ji Nuan did not reveal where she lived.
After arriving at the dessert shop, Ji Mengran noticed that Ji Nuan was sitting by the window and walked in. He scanned his phone while sipping a cup of milk tea.
Ji Nuan pretended not to see it, her eyes fixed on the news she was scrolling on her phone. He looks helpless. Only when Ji Mengran approached the table did she coldly speak. "Sit. What exactly do you want to talk about?”
She lazily gave Ji Mengran a lot of face, nor did she feel the need to pretend that their sister relationship was strong.
Ji Mengran pushed a smooth box towards him. “Before, didn't you mention that you wanted to give the chessboard to Elder Mo? I begged Dad for a very long time, and he finally agreed to give this to me. Big brother, why don't you give this to Grandpa Mo tomorrow.”
Last time, Ji Mengran was unaware of the fact that they had managed to obtain a chess book.
Ji Nuan did not even raise her head, her eyes fixed on the phone. His voice was cold, causing others to feel like there was a distance of a thousand miles between them. "Grandfather Mo's birthday, you're really worried about that."
Ji Mengran naturally had to put on a concerned expression at her sister. “After all, you are my sister and Brother Jing Shen treats me well. I have to do something for you both.”
"Is that so?" Ji Nuan put down the phone, indifferently glancing at Ji Mengran.
By the time their eyes met, Ji Mengran felt fear in her heart due to her cold and indifferent gaze. “Sister, recently we have become much further away. You won't let me go to Yu Garden, and now you won't even tell me where you live. What exactly are you wary of?”
Ji Nuan glanced at the box, reaching out to open it. He saw that it was indeed a jade chessboard from the early Tang period that his father had kept for many years.
That it's real, it's very strange…
Ji Nuan closed the box, raised her thin fingers and unhurriedly tapped it onto the glass table. “Why have you been so suspicious recently? Could it be that you really did something wrong to me?”
Ji Mengran's natural expression almost froze. “How could I have done something to you. You are my sister. My brother is blood related!”
Ji Nuan's gaze returned to her phone. His voice is like the wind. “Isn't that? If you don't make mistakes, why are you always worried?"
“A-I just... just ask... I'm afraid we're getting too far. Since I'm just thinking too much, then I won't ask more.”
Ji Nuan was indifferent and did not answer any further.
About ten minutes later, Ji Mengran found an excuse to leave.
Ji Nuan did not even peek at the chessboard anymore. His eyes remained fixed on his phone screen. He casually searched for information relating to this jade chessboard and after that, his lips curved up forming an ambiguous smile. His eyes were clear and bright, revealing nothing from his mind.
