Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

For some reason, Ji Nuan suddenly had a feeling that everything had gone back to the way it was. She opened her eyes in a daze and looked at the man close at hand. It took her a long time to wake up. Then she saw the man gazing at her.

His eyes were placid and mild.

She didn’t know how long he had been standing and gazing at her here.

“Have you finished your job?” She asked sleepily, resisting the impulse to lean into his arms because he was standing so close to her.

“Why didn’t you go to bed?” His voice was colder than the night outside the window.

She shook her head and pulled up the thin blanket she covered herself with, still huddled on the sofa. Since she just woke up, she said nasally, “You’ve just been discharged from the hospital. I don’t think you’ll be comfortable sleeping in the study, so I’ll give you the bed.”

The man looked at her silently for a moment and said flatly, “As a man, I won’t sleep on the bed and let a woman sleep on the sofa. Go, go back to bed.”

The first sentence was somewhat distant and polite, but the last one sounded like an order. He sounded exactly like the Mo Jingshen who would tell her to eat and sleep well.

Ji Nuan paused, grabbed a corner of the blanket, and said hoarsely, “Why… are you so polite to me?”

He looked quietly at her with his dark, calm eyes. “Then, how am I supposed to treat you? Do you want to share the bed with me? Or do you want something to happen between us tonight?”

“We’re a husband and wife, aren’t we?” Ji Nuan looked into his eyes.

However, the man’s cold eyes soon let her realize that she was being foolishly sentimental.

“You may not have found your place.” The peculiar scent of the man was lingering in her nose, but after these words, he turned and walked away from her.

The door of the study was opened and closed. Ji Nuan curled up on the sofa, looking at the door and then at the empty bed.

…

During this time, the two of them were like strangers to each other. As the Mo family gradually put pressure on the Su family, the Su family blocked the news. Even Elder Su could not control the invisible net that was being cast over his granddaughter.

When Elder Su could no longer bear it, he came straight to the Mo family. Mo Jingshen didn’t reject his visit. He was smiling, but there was a cold gleam in his dark eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking of. In Elder Su’s eyes, Mo Jingshen had always been a man difficult to understand and deal with. It seemed to Elder Su at this moment that Mo Jingshen, who had just woken up from a two-month-long sleep, was more determined and ruthless than ever.

“Xueyi died in that car. Can’t we just leave this case like this? Why do you have to become our Su family’s enemy?” Elder Su looked at Mo Shaoze, who had found out about the truth and was cold to him and then at Mo Jingshen. He gritted his teeth and tried to win a chance for Su Zhilan.

However, Mo Jingshen just coldly turned up the corners of his lips.

Everything went as he planned.

The Su family had been turned upside down after Mo Jingshen woke up. Elder Su tried to talk to Mo Jingshen again but couldn’t see him. The Su family people were no longer allowed to enter the Mo family home and the Shine Group.

Three days before they went back to Hai City, the evidence that Su Zhilan was behind the accident was corroborated. The medicine Su Xueyi had taken, all the diagnosis about her issue, and all the other evidence related to her plan were brought to the surface one by one.

Elder Su was completely powerless in the face of the Mo family’s pressure and the evidence.

Su Zhilan was grounded in the Su family as a suspect, and then taken to the police station. She couldn’t explain all the crime evidence at all and couldn’t prove her innocence.

After knowing the whole accident was actually designed by Su Zhilan, Su Xueyi’s parents were enraged. They went to the police and exposed many crimes committed by the Su family, as well as many unknown things between Su Zhilan and Su Xueyi.

Ji Nuan had lost a child.

Within the week upon Mo Jingshen waking up, the Su family was almost destroyed. Su Zhilan was convicted. Unable to stand the blow, Elder Su fell into a coma and was sent to the hospital. Su Xueyi’s body was finally taken away from the forensic lab and buried by her parents.

Realizing that he was inferior to Mo Jingshen in resolution, measure, and judgment, Mo Shaoze asked him several times when on earth he planned to take over Shine.

In the past, Mo Jingshen wouldn’t bother to answer this question.

However, before he returned to Hai City, Mo Jingshen watched Ji Nuan get into the car and fell silent before he said, “Don’t touch my men. The Mo Corporation will be merged with Shine in two years, and then I’ll take over Shine.”

Mo Shaoze raised his eyebrows and looked at him in shock. “Are you sure?”

Mo Jingshen’s cold voice was full of ridicule. “If I don’t take over Shine in two years, with your ability and Shine Group’s development in the emerging industries, I’m afraid it can’t resist the joint strike of the two Internet companies, VK and Hua Hong. Give me two years. The Mo Corporation will bring them down, and then they won’t even be qualified to be Shine’s opponents.”

Although Shine was the largest Chinese company in the US, there had been a significant shift in industry trends both at home and abroad in recent years. Many companies were turning to the Internet and technology. Mo Shaoze was already old and knew little about these industries, so Shine didn’t develop well in these emerging industries. If he continued to run Shine, in a few years, Shine would eventually decline amid the tide of change in these industries. Shine’s potential was even less than the Mo Corporation that was founded by Mo Jingshen. Therefore, it would be the best choice for Shine to merge with the Mo Corporation or be taken over by Mo Jingshen.

Mo Jingshen had never given him any response on this matter, so Mo Shaoze thought he would never take over Shine and had been worrying that the Mo family’s enterprise would be destroyed in his hands.

Now hearing Mo Jingshen’s words, Mo Shaoze felt much reassured.

…

When Ji Nuan boarded the airplane to Hai City with Mo Jingshen, Feng Ling had to execute a task in the US, so she would go back to Hai City later.

The plane had been flying for several hours. The blue sky and white clouds outside the window all looked beautiful, but the man sitting beside her remained silent.

Under Wan Zhu and Mo Shaoze’s stare, they boarded the airplane. However, the man had not spoken to her since they got on the plane.

The plane flew so long that many people fell asleep. Ji Nuan turned her eyes to the man whose eyes remained closed, wondering whether he was asleep or just taking a rest. Although the two of them shared the same bedroom, he insisted on sleeping in his study. Except after dinner, when she could see him for a moment, he was like a total stranger to her. She had few opportunities to sit beside him and look at him like this.
