Mo Jingshen was clearly pleased by her willingness to let him take her hand and lead her out of the office, but she was immediately embarrassed after they were out of the office.
Now it was office time and there were many people around. Even if they used the elevator exclusive to the CEO, there were still many people in the lobby on the first floor.
However, although she wanted him to let go of his hand, he definitely wouldn’t.
So this morning, the CEO of the Shine Group and the CEO of the MN Group suddenly showed up together in MN Group. The cold and noble man and the beautiful and elegant woman were walking together, which made very eye-catching scenery.
Mo Jingshen had early made a statement about their relationship in media, so most of the employees of the MN Group knew they were actually a couple and no one would gossip about them.
They walked out of the company and Mo Jingshen stroked her fingers.
Although Ji Nuan bought some silver ornaments in Ji City that she really liked, she didn’t wear them a lot, because they would tear her clothes.
Mo Jingshen looked down at her hands, on which she wore no jewelry no matter her wrist or fingers. He asked mildly, “Did you leave the blue diamond I gave you at home as a piece of junk? I never see you wear it.”
Junk?
Ji Nuan said, “I wore it once in a party, but the ten-carat blue diamond is so striking that I don’t usually wear it.”
“I gave you that blue diamond and you just hid it at home?”
“If not?”
“Either you put it on as your wedding ring, or I’ll buy you another one.”
Ji Nuan: “…”
When they were together before, Mo Jingshen rarely bought her gifts, but now he seemed keen to buy her presents.
Or to be exact, he was keen to make her wear his ring.
They grabbed some food in a breakfast bar near the company. Ji Nuan hurried back to the company for she had to attend a meeting at eight o’clock.
Mo Jingshen looked at the empty bowl on the opposite side and wasn’t in a hurry to leave. A waiter came to put away Ji Nuan’s bowl and chopsticks. At this time, Mo Jingshen’s cell phone casually placed on the table vibrated. He glanced at the caller ID and picked the call.
“CEO Mo, something bad happened…”
He remained expressionless and said casually, “I know. I’ll take the afternoon flight back to the United States. Contact Nanheng if you have any problem.”
The one on the other end of the line said something. Mo Jingshen paused and asked, “Have you found the person?”
“Yes, that guy was Aqib’s twin brother. He had planned for three years to avenge his brother. The remnants of those bandits in Cambodia are following him now. In the past three years, they have made connections and bought off people from all sides in the United States…”
“Aqib’s brother’s ability to make connections in the United States suggests that he is more sophisticated than his brother.”
“Yes, now no gangster in America dares to confront them. By the way, CEO Mo, there is another thing…”
“Speak.”
“We found Shi Niange who has been missing for a year in Washington the other day. Should we notify Dr. Qin?”
Mo Jingshen said flatly, “The people he sent has found her first. There is no need to inform him. This is their problem. We don’t have to intervene. I’ll call him before I leave.”
“OK, I see.”
Mo Jingshen hung up the call and put the cell phone aside. He looked at the wonton, which he had barely touched, and remembered how satisfied Ji Nuan had been when she had eaten it. He picked up his chopsticks and began to eat it carelessly
…
It had been two days since Mo Jingshen went back to America. Ji Nuan seemed to work as usual these past two days, but only she knew how absentminded she was.
Two days later, she couldn’t help but remove Mo Jingshen from the WeChat blacklist. She was about to ask him how he was after he returned to the US, but when she clicked the chat window open, she found that he had changed his WeChat avatar.
And the new picture he used was…
The picture he took of her face that night when he slept with her in her break room and she was asleep in his arms.
She was so deep in sleep that she didn’t even notice that the man had taken a picture of her. The picture showed her sleeping face clearly with his well-shaped chin in one corner of the picture and it could be seen that she was sleeping in his arms. Although only a part of the jaw was exposed, any acquaintance of his could recognize it was Mo Jingshen at a glance.
God, he replaced the picture of her and the scenery outside the car window with a picture of him holding her to sleep.
Now she just wanted to throw him back to the blacklist.
Ji Nuan’s temples twitched. She resisted the urge to put him back on the blacklist and sent him a WeChat message. She wanted to say hello but ended up complaining. [You took my picture while I was sleeping? How come I didn’t know you had this hobby before? And how dare you use it as your avatar?! You’ll stay in my blacklist forever if you don’t change it!]
After she sent the message, she did not receive a reply for half an hour.
Ji Nuan wondered whether it was because he still couldn’t receive her message although she had removed him from the blacklist, or was anything else wrong?
She thought and waited for another half an hour, but still received no reply. She could only send him an ‘Angry’ emoticon.
An hour later, there was still no reply.
Ji Nuan thought: Was Mo Jingshen too busy or has he changed phone number after going back to the US? Or has he stopped using WeChat after being blacklisted by her?
Since she registered a WeChat account for him, she rarely sent him a message, but once she sent him one, he would reply immediately.
Was he too busy?
It had been so long that she could not retract the two messages, but stared at his avatar and looked at herself sleeping in his arms. She wasn’t satisfied with the picture, but she couldn’t do anything about it.
She knew well how she was like in the daytime.
But she never knew how she looked when she was in the same bed with Mo Jingshen and asleep beside him.
The scene was warm and sweet and she seemed to be used to being dependent on him.
Wholeheartedly dependent.
Was this her habit all the time, or it was just because she was so tired that night…
