Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing? - Chapter 557

Chapter 557: Jingshen? Were They Already This Close?

This Miss Rong must have watched too many TV dramas and read too many love novels. She took herself as a female lead in some idol drama but others as supporting characters or NPCs who were doomed to be beaten by her in the end.

The princess of the “Capital Circle” was really arrogant.

It was quiet outside. Miss Rong should have been through with her call. Ji Nuan waited a little longer and then came out when she heard nothing.

To her surprise, she hadn’t gone but stood silent and still like a ghost!

Since she had come out and Rong Yan had seen her, Ji Nuan just took a glance at her, came over, put down her bag, washed her hands, and dried them with hot air before she took her lipstick out of her bag and looked in the mirror to fix her makeup. After all, the dress she was wearing today was of a very simple and elegant style and she only wore light makeup. Without fixing the makeup, she might look too perfunctory for the party.

As Ji Nuan was applying powder on her face, Rong Yan stood looking straight at her.

Ji Nuan didn’t mind being stared at but still paused at Rong Yan’s weird action. They stared at each other through the mirror. One was carefully looking and observing, whereas the other was indifferently applying lipstick on her lips.

Ji Nuan knew why Rong Yan was looking at her. It was an inquisitive gaze because she was uncertain of Ji Nuan’s identity, but she was not sure what to ask Ji Nuan, so she just observed her to measure her up.

There was a cold sneer in Ji Nuan’s indifferent eyes. She had seen a lot of pampered girls from wealthy or powerful families, who were arrogant and aggressive. Rong Yan, the so-called princess of the “Capital Circle,” was just like a little innocent white rabbit because she was too well protected by her family, but she was sick of this type of girl.

She fell for a man but did so many stupid things that would get her nowhere. She went to work in his company incognito and served him as a little intern, dreaming that the man would be moved by her when he found out that this little intern was actually the second daughter of the Rong family. Did she think she was living a drama?

Did she think Mo Jingshen was a teenage boy who would be moved by her unflinching and romantic approach and court her?

In Ji Nuan’s opinion, Rong Yan’s approach was strange and Mo Jingshen probably took her as a lunatic.

Perhaps she was not a real little white rabbit.

After all, even a rabbit would bite when it was cornered.

Noticing the coldness in Ji Nuan’s eyes and, out of women’s sensitivity to a love rival, Rong Yan came up to her and asked her, “Miss Ji, what’s your relationship with Mo Jingshen?”

Still looking at the mirror, Ji Nuan raised her eyebrows and chuckled at her straightforward question, asking lightly, “What do you think, Miss Rong? What do you think our relationship should be?”

With that, she withdrew her eyes and continued to fix her makeup, not intending to waste any time on her.

Rong Yan didn’t want to just walk away like this. She simply went straight up to Ji Nuan and blocked her view. However, when she saw Ji Nuan’s face clearly at such a close distance, her heart trembled slightly.

Ji Nuan had been sitting on a sofa in the corner of the banquet hall, which was not well lit, and she could only see that she was a very beautiful woman.

Now she looked much more than beautiful.

Rong Yan had seen a variety of beautiful women since childhood. She had literally seen many beauties, but very few could match Ji Nuan.

Ji Nuan’s beauty was very special.

The woman in front of her was gorgeous, although there was an impatient sneer in her eyes. Although she blocked her view, she still calmly fixed her makeup and put her stuff back into her bag, as if what in front of her was only an obstacle that could not be removed, which she had no intention of avoiding or pushing away but just completely ignored.

Seeing Ji Nuan just ignore her and about to leave, Rong Yan asked again, “I mean… what’s the nature of the relationship between you and Jingshen? You and he…”

Jingshen? Were they already this close?

Ji Nuan took her bag in the hand deadpan and looked at her. “Do you know him so well? No matter what nature of the relationship between us, it’s none of your business. No matter how powerful your family is in the capital, you have no right to poke your nose into others’ affairs. Miss Rong, who do you think you are? What makes you think I will confess what happened between us to you as long as you insist on asking me?”

Rong Yan didn’t expect that Ji Nuan would ignore her or be unkind to her. So something did happen between her and Mo Jingshen?

She was well-protected by the Rong family since childhood. It was fair to say that she was the apple of the Rong family’s eye, but she was not that kind of arrogant, pampered rich girl. She was not naive, although her thoughts might be too simple sometimes. How could Ji Nuan be so rude to her? Rong Yan couldn’t help but frown.

Rong Yan bit her lips and said, “When I was working in Hai City, I heard someone mention Miss Ji, but only once in a while. At that time, those people looked at each other carefully, as if the name mentioned was a taboo in the company, so this “Miss Ji” is you?”

“Yes, so what?” Ji Nuan asked.

“You and Mo Jingshen were lovers, weren’t you? But then you broke up, didn’t you? So they were afraid to mention your name in the company. Did you hurt him? Then how can you have the nerve to come back to him? He deserves a better woman, and you’re not worthy of him!” Rong Yan stared at her.

Her eyes widened in anger and she looked like a fighter defending his lover. Seeing her like this, Ji Nuan envied her a little.

At least she grew up carefree. At least all her purposes were pure.

Ji Nuan spoke to her with the intention to break this innocent girl’s unrealistic fantasies of the man she liked, but she didn’t expect that this Miss Rong was so simple and stubborn.

No wonder she called her Mom Jingshen’s “old flame.”

Rong Yan might think she and Mo Jingshen used to be in love, but then she left him because of interest or misunderstanding, so she labeled her as Mo Jingshen’s ex-girlfriend or “old flame.”

Hearing her words, Ji Nuan coldly looked at her without any word, and Rong Yan had a feeling that she must have touched Ji Nuan’s sore spot.

Although Ji Nuan was beautiful, she believed Mo Jingshen just didn’t know that he no longer loved her. She must have seen that Mo Jingshen was becoming more and more successful in the business circle at home and abroad, so she wanted to make use of him for her own good. She was just a shameless, profit-oriented bitch.

With this in mind, she stared at Ji Nuan’s delicate, perfect face, and despised her even more.
