Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing? - Chapter 194

Chapter 194: Mo Jingshen Saw the Message Ji Nuan Sent

On Saturday, the bonfire party would begin at 6.00p.m. in the evening by the river near T University. This river ran through the entire T City, and in the evening, the wind by the bank was refreshing. The trees on both sides of the river were constantly rustling from the wind.

Coincidentally, their entire dorm was included in the list of attendees. Ji Nuan dressed as she usually did, while the other three of them all took some extra care to dress up.

“Wow, I didn’t expect this river to be so beautiful. The lights are a nice touch as well. Let’s take a picture together!” Ling Feifei suggested.

Coincidentally, Ji Nuan had been looking for an opportunity to obtain a photo of Su Xueyi but was unable to do so as she was afraid of scaring the snake away when she touched the grass. Hearing such a suggestion, she immediately agreed.

After taking the photo, Ji Nuan had Ling Feifei send her a copy. She saved it, and after checking that Su Xueyi’s face could be seen clearly, she sent the photo to Feng Ling.

That night at 9.00 p.m.

Mo Jingshen stood in front of the condo near T University. Looking at the tightly locked doors and the layer of dust on the electronic lock, he could confirm that Ji Nuan barely returned here to stay throughout the past two weeks.

He opened the door and entered. The house lights were not turned on, and the sky had already turned dark; only the neon lights outside the window could be seen.

A bonfire party for the school and its students; why was it still ongoing at this time?

He picked up his phone and gave Ji Nuan a call, only to find that her phone had already been switched off.

Mo Jingshen’s brows twitched. His gaze fixed afar on the lights by the river running through T City. He redialed her phone, but her phone remained switched off.

He abruptly turned around to head out. The moment he stepped out of the door, he saw Feng Ling appear from the elevators.

“Mr. Mo?” Feng Ling was startled to see him here. “Aren’t you supposed to be in Hai City? When did you arrive?”

Mo Jingshen saw that Feng Ling was not following Ji Nuan and asked coldly, “Where’s Ji Nuan?”

“Mrs. Mo has a bonfire party to attend tonight. Originally, I was going to head there with her, but she took a bus to the riverside with her fellow students. She called me to say that her phone was running out of battery, so I came here to retrieve a power bank for her.”

Mo Jingshen coldly said, “She already turned off her phone.”

“Is it?” Feng Ling was suspicious as she brought her phone out for a look. “Several minutes ago, Mrs. Mo sent me a message. How could she run out of battery so quickly?”

“What did she send you?” Mo Jingshen glanced at her.

Feng Ling paused in her movement. She wanted to say that she had been in a rush and had yet to check it when the phone was abruptly taken away by the man in front of her.

Mo Jingshen saw the message Ji Nuan sent and unlocked the phone. A high-definition image of a group photo was instantly displayed.

Underline it, there were these words: [Feng Ling, do you recognized the girl wearing a white dress?]

Mo Jingshen’s gaze landed on the face of the girl mentioned. Before Feng Ling could even get a clear look of his expression, the man abruptly headed for the elevator. He was surrounded by an ice-cold, gloomy atmosphere. At this moment, the typically cold and indifferent man was frigid cold. His stern eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Feng Ling keenly sensed something from Mo Jingshen’s expression and rushed to follow him.

Ji Nuan was sitting by the riverside, slightly further away from the large crowd. Bai Wei handed a freshly grilled lamb skewer to her.

“Thank you.” Ji Nuan received it and took a bite.

Bai Wei then brought two cans of beer. Ji Nuan was still deliberating whether or not to drink it when coincidentally, Bai Wei received a call at this moment. She left to the side to answer her phone while Ji Nuan considered the can of beer in her hand.

Should she drink some?

Forget it, better not. After all, she had already made a promise to Mo Jingshen.

But she still wished she could drink some.

As she was stuck in her dilemma, Su Xueyi suddenly pressed close to her. “My stomach is feeling unwell. There are too many people by the riverside. I can’t see anything clearly. Are there any public restrooms nearby? Will you go look for one with me?”

Ji Nuan calmly glanced at her. “It’s right there in the forest. Walk toward there, and you’ll find it.”

“It’s too dark in there. Walk with me, I’m scared.” Su Xueyi held her stomach. Her expression was pale, as though her stomach was really uncomfortable.

Ji Nuan glanced at Bai Wei who was receiving a call and at Ling Feifei who was currently having fun within the crowd. In this place, she was most familiar with them. It was true that Su Xueyi would have trouble requesting someone else to accompany her.

Ji Nuan did not enjoy interacting too much with Su Xueyi; she felt that there was something clearly off about this person.

However, they were still considered roommates.

“Let’s go.” Ji Nuan placed the skewer and can of beer down. She stood up and patted off her pants.

The two entered the slightly dark forest. The river lights could not reach them in here, and the road ahead was dark. Ji Nuan said, “My phone is out of battery. Use your phone to illuminate the ground. Otherwise, we won’t be able to see the path ahead clearly.”

“My phone is out of battery as well.” Su Xueyi’s voice was much softer than usual, as though she was forcefully suppressing it.

Ji Nuan thought that her stomach was in pain and did not suspect anything. She reached out to support her from behind. The two continued walking inwards.

Finally, as the noise from the crowd faded and the surroundings were unbelievably dark, Ji Nuan recalled that the public restroom here was supposed to be well-lit. Why were all the lights turned off?

“Ji Nuan.” All of a sudden, Su Xueyi’s voice was heard.

Ji Nuan was still wondering about the lights when she heard Su Xueyi asked softly, “Are you afraid of the dark?”

Ji Nuan wanted to answer but found the situation strange.

Su Xueyi had walked such a long way with her, yet she only asked her this question now?

The light could not have been so coincidentally turned off. Someone must have broken it…

Ji Nuan paused in her footsteps. She was about to turn to look warily at Su Xueyi when she suddenly heard the sound of people approaching. She instinctively tried to shout, but before she could even open her mouth, she was forcefully pressed down. Her nose and lips were instantly covered with a slightly wet towel.

“Uu… you… what are you… uu…”

Surrounded by darkness, she could not see Su Xueyi’s expression, nor could she see the people around her.

A sharp smell entered her nose. Ji Nuan struggled for a moment when she suddenly felt the world spinning. Her senses gradually became numb, and her vision turned dark as she lost consciousness.
