Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing? - Chapter 445
Chapter 445: He Had Once Stood Behind Her and Taught Her Like This (3)
A lot of people in the crowd asked Ji Nuan if she needed help.
Ji Nuan did not reply.
Suddenly, the crowd behind Ji Nuan quieted down, and she noticed Sheng Yihan and Ji Mengran’s expressions changed. Ji Nuan paused and suddenly perceived someone approaching from behind.
The man behind her came up to her and took her by the shoulder; a refreshing smell familiar, yet strange hung over her. Ji Nuan froze, and the man’s hand reached over from behind, holding her wrist, and helping her to adjust her posture. His cool, deep voice suddenly sounded in her ear. “Don’t be nervous.”
She didn’t have to look back.
She knew it was Mo Jingshen.
Even if the last three years had made the distance between the two of them as great as the Milky Way, as long as he got close to her, she could tell who he was from his taste, his aura, and his voice.
Seeing Mo Jingshen, who had been nonchalantly sitting in the rest area, came over to help Ji Nuan, Ji Mengran clenched her teeth, and she clutched the dart so hard that her fingers whitened.
Ji Nuan wasn’t nervous, but when his breath suddenly surrounded her and the people around suddenly dared not speak but looked at them quietly, she was suddenly seized with tension.
Mo Jingshen put his hand on her waist and corrected her posture as she froze. As if really only teaching her how to play darts, he raised his hand to her neck and helped her correct the direction and field of her vision. Then he moved the hand that had taken her wrist, and with a broad, warm palm, he took her hand in its entirety.
“Focus on the middle dot, and don’t be so stiff. Darts require skill instead of strength. Calm down and aim at the center.” His lips were almost close to her ear, and he took her hand and spoke slowly and placidly, “Are you ready?”
Ji Nuan looked at the dartboard. “Yes.”
The man took her hand and shot the dart.
He was also teaching a newbie, but this colorful dart hit the central ring, knocking down the dart of Sheng Yihan and Ji Mengran.
It was a crushing victory.
Thunderous applause broke out all around. Ji Nuan ignored Ji Mengran, whose face turned purple in anger and the onlookers’ interested looks and only looked at the central ring in the distance. Time seemed to go back to three years ago in XI Base in Los Angeles when she did not have the confidence to hit the bull’s eye 100 meters away, and this man had stood behind her and taught her like this.
Ji Nuan’s eyes were so placid as if the past did not exist.
“Thank you, CEO Mo.” Ji Nuan looked at the dart in the center of the dartboard and took her hand out of the man’s. Standing in his arms, she said calmly and even coldly, “Can you let me go?”
However, the man didn’t leave but drew back his arms without any hesitation. Ji Nuan turned to thank him, making the distance between them half a meter again.
“Thank you.” Ji Nuan thanked him.
Mo Jingshen saw the apparent coldness and alienation in her eyes and did not answer. As Ji Nuan walked away deadpan, he looked quietly at the colorful dart in the center of dartboard.
Ji Nuan walked very fast.
Mo Jingshen pushed her away with his own hands. Since he had said that the past he was dead, she would choose to accept the cruelest reason, no longer asking, no longer staying, and no longer trying to get him back.
Times had passed, and the circumstances had changed. After she came back to Hai City, she did not want to have any contact with Mo Jingshen again.
It wasn’t easy for them to meet again. She did not want to become an enemy of this powerful CEO Mo, but he had nothing to do with her.
After signing the divorce agreement, she did not plan on seeing him again. Even if the Yu Garden was smashed and sealed, even if she went away to England, she did not think that she could talk to him in such close quarters.
Ji Nuan went back to her room. When she entered the room, she found that her whole body was covered with sweat. In the morning, she had been basking in the sun for so long. In the afternoon, she had been playing this and that all the time. After all these exercises, she guessed she didn’t smell that good when she was playing darts.
She thought again of the scene, of the gossiping words of the people around her when they saw him take her in his arms and help her, and of Mo Jingshen’s calm and indifferent eyes.
It may be exciting for old lovers to meet again, but Ji Nuan didn’t want to see him again.
Ji Nuan went into the bathroom and stood under the water. The water was warm.
Since she nearly lost her life in the cold air and cold water of the hotel three years ago because of her high fever, she has hardly taken a cold shower and seldom touched cold water. Even in the hot weather, she would never take a cold drink. Because of this, she had become much healthier and now didn’t have the severe pain in her stomach when she was on her period.
After she had taken a bath, it was half-past seven. It was summer, and it was just getting dark, but the day had not been completely covered by night.
The resort was still bustling, and many of the successful people who had come to Hai City in recent years were young, unlike before when successful men were all potbelly uncles of forty or fifty years old.
Some people were barbecuing in the barbecue area on the beach, and some were drinking and chatting. It was very lively.
Ji Nuan’s room was on the second floor of a villa and had a huge balcony. She opened the window and went out on the balcony. The sea breeze blew from a distance, she looked at the group of people who were having a barbecue. They were all friendly people she met these days. Sheng Yihan, Ji Mengran, and of course, Mo Jingshen were not among them.
Stars gradually appeared in the sky, and she sat on the balcony, watching the night sky, listening to the happy voices of the crowd below.
As the sea breeze blew by, Ji Nuan raised her hand and lifted her half-dry hair. When she lowered her head again, she saw that there was Shen Mu in the group of people who were having a barbecue, but obviously, Shen Mu just came to join the fun and Mo Jingshen did not appear.
