In an instant her heart was seen through, she really felt some humiliation .
Watching Ji Nuan's fearless expression, Ling Feifei gathered the following:
Complacency, arrogance, cockiness, and the sense that someone was supporting her provided her with confidence .
Who else aside from Mo Jingshen could be the one supporting Ji Nuan behind the scenes?
Ji Nuan did not turn to look at Ling Feifei's expression . Instead, she picked up the thermos cup on her desk and opened the lid . Through the hot steam rising up, she quietly watched as the bell chimed and Professor Lin entered the classroom .
Ling Feifei finally returned to her seat . However, her gaze would occasionally flit toward Ji Nuan's turtleneck .
Even though her collar was high, with an intentional gaze, Ling Feifei would occasionally catch the appearance of the hidden love marks .
Someone like President Mo who appeared cold, low-key, and difficult to approach, would he really… be that intense?
That night, Ji Nuan did not agree to Bai Wei's invitation to shop together . When she left T University after class, she saw Feng Ling's car parked outside .
It had been several days since she saw Feng Ling . Feng Ling appeared as per normal . Her hair had been trimmed slightly, and she was still thin and dressed in black . She seemed to be capable and clean as she stood by the car .
Ji Nuan said she wanted to head to the department store to shop . Feng Ling accompanied her but did not speak the entire way . It was as though she had reverted back to when she had first started working by Ji Nuan's side .
Since Feng Ling was avoiding her, Ji Nuan did not intentionally probe at her wound to ask . She decided not to say much as well, and only occasionally asked if the clothes she was buying looked good . After receiving Feng Ling's short opinion, she did not ask more .
At 6 . 00 p . m . , Feng Ling sent Ji Nuan to the restaurant near Mo Jingshen's branch company .
When she arrived, Mo Jingshen was already sitting there . It seemed like he had been waiting for quite a while .
She wasn't sure if he had heard or sensed her, but before she approached, he was looking up .
Their eyes met . Ji Nuan watched as the man's ink-black eyes appeared to light up like stars with a smile . He then stood up .
She approached as he tugged the chair out for her . He then removed her coat and took her bag from her, placing it by the side . His low voice concealed his doting smile: “Didn't we agree to meet at 5 . 30 p . m . ? Why are you late? After resting for a period, it seems like Feng Ling's work efficiency has yet to come back . ”
Ji Nuan raised her head to look at the man's attractive jawline: “Earlier, I went with Feng Ling to shop at a department store . There were several attractive pieces, so it took a while to try them on . ”
“The new clothes are in the car?”
“I didn't buy them . After trying them on, I felt that they didn't appear much different from what I usually wear, so I didn't buy anything . ” Ji Nuan sat down comfortably and received the menu from the waiter . While looking at it, she said, “You've been in T City for so many days, most of the time, you've been cooking personally at home . It's fine if we eat out occasionally, but I still prefer the food you make . ”
After ordering, she picked up a glass of a warm beverage for a sip . When the man sat down, he said with his clear and composed voice, “Someone is following you . ”
“How did you realize it?” Ji Nuan did not turn back for a look . From the moment she left T University, she had already sensed it . She easily guessed who it was and decided not to pay much attention to the person . After casually shopping with Feng Ling and driving here, the person was actually still following her .
“Such a common way of following someone . Her car is parked right behind Feng Ling's . Who is it?” Mo Jingshen calmly asked .
Ji Nuan placed her cup down and smiled lightly: “It should be Ling Feifei . She suspects that I've seduced you, a married man . She most likely wants to take some pictures for evidence to threaten me . Oh, right, and perhaps she'll look for you to see if she can gain any benefits . ”
Mo Jingshen appeared amused as he watched her impatient expression: “The difference in the quality of intelligence between the school and the workplace is truly worlds apart . You sure are capable of enduring . ”
“What else can I do but tolerate . You were right . Being too serious with this sort of child's play will lower my intelligence . ” Ji Nuan watched the man's smiling eyes and pursed her lips to say, “There are only two more weeks to go . After enduring T University's school anniversary and one more exam, I can return to Hai City . ” ”
Mo Jingshen raised his brows: “You plan on attending the school anniversary?”
“I've never participated in something like this when I was a student . Since there's the opportunity for it now, I'll attend . Earlier, I was planning to buy the clothes for the anniversary . I don't want to be too high profile, but I don't want to be too casual either . After looking for half a day, I still couldn't find anything suitable . ”
The man watched her and smiled lightly: “I'll be returning to Hai City tomorrow night . I'll accompany you to shop today?”
“It's all right, there's no rush . I can just pick something from my closet . ” Ji Nuan saw from the corner of her eyes that Ling Feifei's car was still parked outside . The window was lowered to reveal a small gap . Ji Nuan suspected that she was secretly taking photos and did not turn back for a closer look . She picked up her cup and blew at the hot beverage: “How is it on my Dad's side?”
After seeing Shen Mu the day before, Ji Hongwen indeed gave Ji Nuan a call . However, he only said a few words of concern before hanging up . Right now, Ji Mengran's location could not be confirmed . It was strange that there was no news from her, especially if she really had not met with an accident . However, Mo Jingshen had clearly checked that Ji Mengran did not board the flight .
It was unreasonable for someone to simply disappear, especially right when the flight met with an accident .
In this situation, it was unsuitable for Ji Nuan to make too many calls to inquire . After all, even though Ji Nuan was not the instigator for Ji Mengran's trip abroad, she was still the main reason .
“He is still waiting for further news . His emotions are much more stable than you imagine . There's no need to worry . ”
“My father is good at suppressing and concealing his emotions . Otherwise, it wouldn't take me so long to doubt my own birth . ”
At this moment, the waiter brought a bowl of borscht onto the table . Mo Jingshen scooped the soup into a small bowl and placed it before Ji Nuan, his deep-set eyes turning warm: “There's no need to inquire too much into everything . The most important thing is to stabilize your own mentality . ”
Ji Nuan watched his handsome face and indicated toward outside: “If that mentally-ill little lady brings the photos she has taken to threaten you, a married man, or to threaten me, if such a senseless thing were to happen, what do you think I should do?”
Ji Nuan did not wish to affect the mood of their dinner with Ji Hongwen's issues, so she took the initiative to change the topic .
The man reached out to caress her hair with a low chuckle . “Will you let her regret the past three months of having her nose in the air, or will you take the official status of 'Mrs . Mo' to slap her in the face?”
Ji Nuan took a sip of her soup and replied composedly, “That will depend on the degree to which she is asking for death . ”
