Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing? - Chapter 397
Chapter 397: Will CEO Mo Kill Me If I Send Him This Photo?
Ji Nuan smiled politely. “Thank you. One drink will be enough for me.”
At this time, Mr. Vinse’s secretary also came over. The secretary was very young and obviously had a crush on the handsome, rich, and young Mr. Vinse. Her eyes rested on Ji Nuan’s ring finger when she sat down. Looking at Ji Nuan’s clean, slender fingers, she asked with a smile, “Miss Ji, If I remember correctly, you’ve been married a long time, haven’t you? Why didn’t I see you wearing a ring when I came out with our general manager to meet you these days?”
Ji Nuan lowered her head, forked another piece of matcha cake into her mouth, and didn’t glanced at the secretary until she swallowed the cake. “I am thinner than when I got married. The ring is too big for me, so I put it at home. What, is it strange not to wear a ring after marriage?” she asked indifferently.
“Of course not, it’s just that I’ve never seen you wear your wedding ring, nor have I ever seen you and Mr. Mo appear at the same time. People may assume that you’ve divorced, or that you’re trying to make it seem like you’re single when you’re socializing outside…” That female secretary looked into her eyes, still smiling. “Miss Ji, you know when you were married to Mr. Mo, many girls in Hai City were heartbroken. I wonder what’s wrong with you. Why do you insist on running your own business instead of just staying at home and enjoying the wealthy life your husband brings to you…”
She was trying to remind Mr. Vinse, who stood beside her, that Ji Nuan was a married woman and that her husband was Mo Jingshen that Mr. Vinse couldn’t afford offending.
Mr. Vinse couldn’t have been unaware, and the secretary was merely trying to remind him.
Ji Nuan didn’t speak, She wasn’t interested in either of the two, so this undercurrent of thought between Mr. Vinse and his secretary didn’t mean anything to her.
“Miss Ji, I heard from your assistant last time that you seem to have been close to your business partners recently. You’re so busy dealing with these bosses that you don’t even have time to take our manager’s invitations. And we finally got a chance to meet you again today, but you look absentminded and seem not to take BGY’s cooperation agreement seriously at all as if you are sure it’ll be yours…”.
Without looking at her, Ji Nuan just said coldly, “I think the most appropriate expression of seriousness is the attitude in the progress of cooperation, not in the negotiation of the contract. What’s the point of all the smiley faces before signing a contract? We are old acquaintances, and it’s not the first time we cooperate. You know how efficient our studio can be and how good the price we quote is, don’t you? What kind of attitude do you expect?”
As for that, she didn’t have time to accept Mr. Vinse’s invitation, that was exactly what she told Xiao Ba to tell them. But she said Ji Nuan was busy dealing with those bosses. Well, that was sheer nonsense.
Ji Nuan’s expression remained cold and disdainful. The secretary was about to say something else, when Mr. Vinse said coldly, “Are you drunk? You’ve only had a few drinks, and you are already talking nonsense?”
The secretary froze and knew her boss was angry. She was angry to see Mr. Vinse trying to please Ji Nuan, so she came over to taunt Ji Nuan to vent. However, hearing this warning, she didn’t dare to say more but got up and walked away, but her eyes still glanced at them from time to time, as if she was afraid of any ambiguous relationship or further intimacy between Mr. Vinse and Ji Nuan.
Finally, it quieted down. Ji Nuan remained deadpan, and Mr. Vinse handed her a piece of cakes. “Please don’t mind it.”
Ji Nuan smiled and took the cake. “It’s all right. A person like you must have many admirers, and your secretary is just one of them. I’ve been in this situation before. I don’t mind.”
Mr. Vinse raised his eyebrows. “Do you have many admirers and suitors around you?”
Ji Nuan’s hand, which was holding the fork, paused and she took a look at Mr. Vinse.
At the moment when they looked at each other, Xia Tian, standing on the opposite side, suddenly held up the phone and took a photo of them.
Ji Nuan paused and suddenly turned her eyes to Xia Tian, and the latter just raised her cell phone and shook it at her with a smug look. She knew from the look on her face that she was going to do something bad.
And Xia Tian had recently hated Mo Jingshen so much that she didn’t know what Xia Tian would do with such a picture that could easily give rise to misunderstanding.
She immediately got up. “I’m going to have a word with Xia Tian, and I’ll have someone else to come and accompany you to drink. Excuse me.”
Ji Nuan got up with a cold look. It was not the first time he had met her, and he knew that she never curried favor with her business partners like other businesswomen would do, but that was why he liked her so much.
Mr. Vinse didn’t say anything but just smiled and moved his legs to let her pass, without any intention of pestering her.
He was a gentleman.
If he wasn’t, Ji Nuan would have given up the cooperation with BGY and wouldn’t have come here.
Ji Nuan hurried up to Xia Tian and held out her hand. “Give me your phone.”
“No.” Xia Tian was also eating cake. She ate and carefully protected her phone.
Ji Nuan gave her a cold look. “Give it to me!”
Seeing that she was about to get angry, Xia Tian reached out to pull her over, asked her to sit next to her, and then picked up the phone to show her the photo. “Look, you and Mr. Vinse look just like a perfect couple! But there are still ten centimeters between your shoulders! Right? As you said last time about Mo Jingshen’s photos taken by that magazine, he didn’t hug or kiss any woman. What’s the big deal with that picture? Don’t you think so?”
Ji Nuan didn’t say anything but reached out to grab Xia Tian’s cell phone. Xia Tian, However, quickly put the phone back in her pocket, not letting her touch it.
There were so many people here that Ji Nuan couldn’t fight with Xia Tian for her cellphone, so she could only draw near her and said to her in a voice that only Xia Tian could hear, “Fine, you can take that photo, but don’t send it to anyone. You hear me?”
Xia Tian snorted. “It depends on my mood.”
“Don’t send it to anyone.”
“Okay, then I’ll only send it to Mo Jingshen.”
“…If you want to die.”
“You mean he will kill me if I send him this photo?”
“No, I’ll kill you first,” Ji Nuan said coldly.
Xia Tian: “…”
