Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing? - Chapter 732
Chapter 732: Whoever Has Ideas About Mr. Mo…
Tonight, Ji Nuan was far too quiet at the evening party. Most of the attendees had heard that Mr. Mo and Mrs. Mo would be personally attending and had specially come to take a look at her.
However, aside from when they saw the two arrive at the entrance, they barely saw Ji Nuan again.
At the moment, Ji Nuan was resting on a couch in the corner of the room. She could barely muster any strength to move with her aching waist and weak legs. Mo Jingshen also understood her condition. He placed his suit jacket on her shoulders and left her to rest comfortably.
As a result…
The other guests did not know where Ji Nuan was, but the ones nearby had all noticed Ji Nuan resting lazily on the couch. They only assumed that she wasn’t feeling very well. As they passed by, they all greeted her. Ji Nuan waved back at them with a polite smile.
A distance away, there were two young girls peeking at her secretly. They kept their heads lowered as they whispered to each other quietly. Ji Nuan did not pay them much attention.
She mustered up some strength and stood up to pick up a glass of red wine. When she sat back down, she turned back to see that one of the earlier girls dressed in a pink gown was leaning close to Mo Jingshen’s side with scarlet cheeks. It wasn’t clear what she was saying to him, but her side profile alone revealed her infatuation.
Ji Nuan only took a simple glance in that direction. Typically, there was always a crowd of women interested in Mo Jingshen. By now, she had grown used to it. She saw that Mo Jingshen did not return the girl’s gaze and only continued his conversation with the man next to him. His expression was indifferent and cold as though he could not see the little girl who was like a pink peacock by his side. After his conversation ended, he walked away from her.
From the way things seem, this must be the daughter of one of their Los Angeles’ partners. When she saw that Mo Jingshen did not toss a single glance at her, the girl was disappointed but did not dare approach again. She appeared slightly resentful as she returned to her friend’s side.
The two whispered to each other for a while, their gaze shifting toward Ji Nuan every so often.
All of a sudden, they began heading in her direction. They seemed to think that Ji Nuan did not notice them as they casually moved closer to her. Afterward, the two picked up a glass of red wine from the long table by Ji Nuan’s side. They chatted with smiles as they sipped their wines and continued shifting closer to her.
When Ji Nuan noticed one of the girls was about to tip her wine glass, she did not move from her seat. She spoke lightly: “Even if you pour the red wine on me and I have to leave this place to look for a new gown, even if I’m not sitting here, Mr. Mo will never take an extra glance at any woman that isn’t me. I advise you girls not to have any wishful thinking. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not having any mercy when you lift the boulder up only to drop it on your own feet. Even Mr. Mo won’t let this go easily. After all, no matter how wealthy the Mo family is, when a gown worth several millions is ruined, there has to be a suitable explanation obtained.”
The girl’s back stiffened. She immediately straightened the stem of the wine glass and did not spill anything. Her gaze was somewhat embarrassed as she glanced at Ji Nuan.
Ji Nuan, on the other hand, remained unruffled. She seemed to be smiling openly yet her gaze was cold. It was clear she would not forgive their nonsense just because of their young age.
The two girls were indeed young; their schemes were nothing impressive. They originally wanted to go speak to Mo Jingshen but Mr. Mo was far too indifferent. They thought it wasn’t convenient for him to interact with other girls with his wife present and wanted to take the opportunity to chase Mrs. Mo away before making another attempt to see if Mo Jingshen would pay them any attention.
But they never thought…
The two girls exchanged embarrassed glances. They placed their wine glasses down.
“Mrs. Mo, you’re thinking too much. It’s true that I wasn’t holding my wine glass properly earlier. Thankfully, you reminded me or I really would have spilled it onto you. I’m so sorry.” One of the girls turned to apologise to Ji Nuan awkwardly.
Ji Nuan’s expression did not change. She was not too cold nor too apathetic, nor did she appear as though she was speaking down to them. She maintained an unruffled appearance as she glanced at the girl to say calmly: “I can understand the tendency for young girls to become infatuated. But the Mr. Mo in your eyes is a man who has been married for many years. I advise you to change the direction of your infatuation. Seducing someone else’s husband at such a young age isn’t something you should be proud of.”
The two girls immediately blushed bright red. “We… we had no such intentions…”
“You better not.” Ji Nuan lifted her lips but her smile did not reach her eyes. “There’s nothing wrong with being simple-minded, but under normal circumstances, I won’t be polite to anyone who dares to entertain such thoughts. After so many years of marriage, I’ve seen all sorts of women. The young and simple-minded little girls are like ants on the streets; I can crush them to death the moment I say I want to. You’re both so young. What’s the point in making people unhappy and bringing harm onto yourself?”
By now, the girls’ expressions were awkward. They could barely hold onto their faces but this was Mrs. Mo. Even if they wanted to, they did not dare to argue with her.
Furthermore, the reason Mrs. Mo was saying these words was clearly because she had seen through them. Under such a circumstance, if they still looked for excuses, they would definitely be on the losing end…
The two did not dare to say more. They exchanged glances and stuck their tongues out at each other before quickly escaping. They did not dare to pause for a second longer.
Ji Nuan was completely unaffected by the small episode. She remained in her seat, sipping her red wine every so often to pass the time.
In less than ten minutes, Mo Jingshen approached. He supported Ji Nuan up and whispered in her ear with a chuckle. “Still tired?”
The man’s voice was extremely soft. She was the only one who could hear him.
Ji Nuan narrowed her eyes at him, grumbling with her gaze.
Nonsense. He tortured her so much right before the evening party. It would be strange if she could still muster any strength. For the past few nights, he had also been relentless as though he was trying to demand a hundredfold compensation for the past three years of pain.
There were people dancing at the venue. Mo Jingshen held Ji Nuan’s hand and led her through the crowd. He then released her hand and held her waist to bring her into his embrace. He lowered his eyes to watch her.
“I heard that Mrs. Mo said some harsh words today; you won’t be polite to whoever dares to have ideas about Mr. Mo, en?”
He lowered his eyes to watch the little woman who was looking at the dance floor. His gaze was filled with satisfaction when he saw the calm and composed light in her eyes.
