Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

She glanced at him: “We only sat together for a chat. It’s not as if we did anything beyond touching hands. Do you have to be so rude to him?”

The man did not respond to her. He approached the security officer in the parking lot to receive his keys, coldly asking, “Where’s the car parked?”

The security officer answered politely, “Sir, your car has been parked on floor B2, on lot number 208.”

Ji Nuan turned to look at Xiao Hu, who had also followed them out. Although Xiao Hu was unclear on the situation, he kept feeling that he couldn’t even protect himself right now. He did not speak, and the moment he met Ji Nuan’s gaze, he quickly turned his head away. He caught up to Mo Jingshen’s pace and called out to him, “CEO Mo…”

When they finally sat in the car, Mo Jingshen sat in the back. He did not pay attention to Ji Nuan or look her in the eye even after she climbed in.

He lowered his head to scan through a few documents placed on the backseat; his expression was still poor and ugly.

Since he wasn’t speaking, Ji Nuan did not speak either. The man flipped through the documents with his thin, long fingers. He acted as though she was not present.

Xiao Hu checked the time as he drove. He then gathered up his courage to disturb the overly silent atmosphere in the car. “CEO Mo, this morning’s meeting ended quite early. Would you like to continue with your late afternoon schedule? Or should we return to the hotel? It’s already past 12:00 p.m. Both CEO Ji and you have yet to have lunch. Should we find a suitable place to eat something first?”

“Sure,” Ji Nuan immediately agreed. Coincidentally, she was also hungry.

The man indifferently glanced at the way she appeared to brighten at the thought of eating and answered coldly, “Anything.”

Since he was finally willing to speak, Ji Nuan turned to glance at him. “Chinese food or western food?”

Mo Jingshen saw that she was acting open, as though nothing had happened. His gaze turned cold and he did not respond.

Ji Nuan was perceptive and glanced away. She did not look at him again as she made the decision for them. “We’ve been having Chinese food for the past few days, yet we haven’t encountered any particularly good restaurants. Let’s have western food today.”

Xiao Hu saw that CEO Mo did not speak and continued driving. He searched their surroundings for a suitable western restaurant.

After arriving at the restaurant, Ji Nuan handed the menu to them to order. Mo Jingshen tossed it to Xiao Hu and told him to order.

Xiao Hu continued trembling. “Um, CEO Mo, although I understand your tastes, I don’t know much about CEO Ji’s. Why don’t the both of you order?”

Ji Nuan had no plans of ordering. She was fine with eating whatever. She tossed Xiao Hu a look and indicated for him to hand the menu to Mo Jingshen.

Mo Jingshen also had no plans of receiving the menu.

The man spoke, as though his words did not hold deep meaning, “Order whatever you like. Right now, I don’t even understand your tastes and foresight in picking men, how could I possibly know what you like to eat.”

Ji Nuan: “…”

What did he mean? Was he saying that her attitude to Mr. Vinse was better, and mocking that her tastes and foresight in picking men were poor?

Xiao Hu: “…”

Was CEO Mo jealous?

“We sat closely because the seats were pre-arranged. In recent years, Mr. Vinse has been taking care of me. There’s nothing unsuitable with chatting more with him. Furthermore, Mr. Vinse has been chasing me for three years, and we’re both mature adults. Nothing has ever happened between the two of us, and we only touched hands for a moment to speak. Do I seem like such a frivolous person?”

Mo Jingshen silently glanced at her; his gaze was cool.

Xiao Hu had already stood up slowly. He felt that it wasn’t suitable for him to listen to their conversation, and quietly whispered, “I’ll head to the restroom…”

The moment he was done speaking, he sped away as though the soles of his shoes were brushed with oil.

The waiter by the side felt awkward and asked politely, “Miss, what would you like to order?”

Typically, under such a circumstance, men would give into women. Thus, it was common practice to directly ask the lady.

Ji Nuan glanced at the menu. She did not wish to take up too much of the waiter’s time and randomly ordered a few items. Afterward, the waiter politely took the menus with him and left.

Ji Nuan lowered her head to look at her phone.

Since he wasn’t speaking, she wouldn’t take the initiative to say anything.

Anyway, she had rarely seen Mo Jingshen angry. Even when they were attached by the hips, she had never known how to coax him when he was genuinely angered. Furthermore, she also had no desire to coax him now.

He could be angry if he wished to be. She was too lazy to pay him any attention.

In the past three years, she had always maintained the attitude of a friend while interacting with Mr. Vinse. She had never agreed to, nor was she ever intimate with him. She had stuck firmly by her own principles.

Nonetheless, it was true that Mr. Vinse had helped her on countless occasions. The care he had shown her could not be denied. Mo Jingshen, on the other, was completely absent in her life. He had let her be as she pleased. Even if he had no choice but to let go, and to let her venture, so that her life could return to its original trajectory.

No matter how strong she was, she would never have made it here today without the support of her friends. She held gratitude for every one of them, and it was impossible for her to maintain a cold attitude toward Mr. Vinse.

She felt that there was nothing wrong with being concerned for Mr. Vinse’s health. If Xia Tian had been feeling unwell, she would have been even more direct and forcefully brought her to the hospital.

Couldn’t there be concern among friends?

When Xiao Hu came out of the restroom, he scanned the table from afar and saw that the cold war seemed to be persisting.

He hesitated for a long moment before returning. He kept his own presence to a minimum and did not dare admit that he had arranged Ji Nuan’s seat to be with BGY’s general manager. He had good intentions when he helped Ji Nuan find a seat with her business partner, but who would have thought he would stir up such trouble.

Seeing Xiao Hu’s return, Ji Nuan abruptly stood up. “I’ll head to the restroom as well.”

Xiao Hu coughed. Under such an atmosphere, fleeing to the restroom was indeed the best option.

He quickly pointed to the restroom. “The female’s toilet is on that side. It should be on the second floor. The male’s toilet is on the first floor.”

Ji Nuan nodded. She picked up her bag and phone and turned to leave.

Less than a minute after she left, Mo Jingshen stood up as well. Xiao Hu’s eyelids twitched but he did not dare to speak up. He secretly peeked at CEO Mo and noticed that he had left in the same direction.

CEO Mo must have heard the words he spoke to Ji Nuan earlier. However, Xiao Hu watched as his family’s CEO Boss stepped past the male restroom and headed up the staircase.

Eh?
