Chapter 704: Ji Nuan Blushed in Embarrassment

Mo Jingshen walked down the stairs.

Ji Hongwen and Xiao Zhenjun who hadn’t left turned around and found he had come downstairs.

He looked cold yet dignified and walked very steadily. The living room fell into silence.

Mo Jingshen looked at the two of them who were silent. “You’re still here? Do you have anything else?”

Ji Hongwen sighed. “I didn’t expect that Nuan Nuan could only recognize you. I think I’m not a good father.”

After a short pause, he asked, “I guess you must make a lot of effort to appease her when she just woke up, right? Seeing her current state, I can’t imagine what she was like when she just woke up.”

Auntie Chen said in a small voice on the side, “Madam almost smashed everything she saw the day she woke up, and then she hid into the closet and didn’t allow us to touch her. Fortunately, Mr. Mo came back in time. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have known what to do.”

When Ji Hongwen heard this, his heart ached and he couldn’t help blaming himself.

Ji Nuan had been so badly injured and sick, but he couldn’t do anything to help her.

Xiao Zhenjun closed his eyes, saying, “When Qinglin was in bad shape, only you stayed by her side and took care of her. Although you hid my daughter from me for more than two decades, it can’t be denied that you took very good care of her and her mother. The Nuan Nuan I saw just now reminds me of Qinglin. Now I think even if I had offered to take her away back then, she wouldn’t have gone with me.”

Not expecting Xiao Zhen, the condescending boss of Ling Xiao Group who had a bad temper, to say these words, Ji Hongwen took a look at him.

Mo Jingshen didn’t respond to his words but said, “Auntie Chen, have dinner prepared. Chairman Ji and Chairman Xiao are finally willing to have a good chat after more than twenty years. Let them sit down and talk.”

“No, take good care of Nuan Nuan. Contact me if you need any help. We, the Xiao family, will do whatever we can to help.” Xiao Zhenjun looked a bit sad, perhaps because Ji Nuan repelled him and was scared of him, or maybe her current state reminded her of her mother. He didn’t want to blame Ji Hongwen anymore, nor make up with him. With that, he turned to leave with a dark face.

Mo Jingshen narrowed his eyes and didn’t say anything.

Ji Hongwen left soon after too. After all, everyone in Yu Garden was busy taking care of Ji Nuan, and he didn’t want to bother them anymore. He told Mo Jingshen to take good care of Ji Nuan and then left with Xiao Zhenjun.

Mo Jingshen looked at their receding figures and then turned to go upstairs.

In the bedroom, Ji Nuan lay prone on the bed. Now her headache had gone and she was looking with a confused look at that Ji Nuan in the video, observing the way she spoke, and from time to time, laughing as she laughed and making the same gesture as her.

Hearing the sound from her iPad outside the door, Mo Jingshen had guessed what she was doing. He gazed at her for a moment at the door. After making sure that she was just observing her former self, he went to his study and told the servants to keep an eye on her outside the bedroom.

In the study.

The video conference had been cut off. Mo Jingshen shut the laptop and picked up his cell phone to make a call, his voice cold and clear. “Cut off the secret arms dealing channel. The channel shall not be used anymore. And give the major part of that business to Nanheng.”

Recognizing it was his voice, the person on the side of the phone asked respectfully, “Mr. Control, are you going to cut off the relations with those arms dealers?”

“I haven’t contacted them for years, although I know how to contact them. Do you think I still want to maintain these relations?”

“Well…” The person asked in surprise, “Have you… made up your mind?”

Mo Jingshen said flatly, “Just do what I tell you. You won’t have any loss. Do it right now. Contact Nanheng and he will send his men over. XI Base will know what to do.”

“But… but we’ve been trusting you for so many years because we know you will never give us away no matter what happens. Now if you cut off the channel, will you…”

Mo Jingshen smiled. “I won’t give you away unless you make me really impatient.”

“OK, OK, I understand. I’ll do it right away.”

Hanging up the call, Mo Jingshen made another call.

He put his hand on the laptop and looked at the bookshelf not far away with his deep, calm eyes. “I’ll give you all the management rights of XI Base. I’ve made up my mind. Don’t think you can persuade me. Eliminate those Cambodian men. Otherwise, they will come to you sooner or later. Then I can’t help you.”

Nanheng’s lazy, sexy voice rang on the phone. “So you just want to be the CEO of Shine Group and stay home with your darling?”

Mo Jingshen said seriously, “She is different from Feng Ling. Feng Ling belongs to your world but was kicked out by you, whereas Ji Nuan doesn’t belong to this world but gets dragged in. It’s time to stop.”

After a short pause, the other end of the call laughed. “All right. I see. Just as Grandfather Mo expected before, I know you’ll quit the underground world one day.”

Then he paused. “How is Ji Nuan now?”

“She hasn’t come to her senses.”

“Since Qin Siting is in Hai City, he will cure her soon. Leave it to time. Now you can finally stay with her. At least she won’t try to leave you. Unlike Feng Ling, I can’t even catch her. Now she took revenge on me with what I taught him. She became more and more difficult to deal with, like a loach that will bite you if you try to catch it.”

There was a noise on the other end. Nanheng paused and said, “Leave this matter to me. Just stay in Hai City and take care of Ji Nuan. I gotta go.”

Mo Jingshen grunted in response, hung up, and put the cell phone on the table.

Ji Nuan was standing quietly at the door of his study. Hearing him hang up, she secretly pushed the door a crack and peeped carefully in, but soon Mo Jingshen noticed her and looked at her. Under his gaze, Ji Nuan blushed in embarrassment. She didn’t expect to be seen so soon.

She pointed to the iPad in her hand and then pointed inside, asking in a small voice, “Shenshen, may I go in? I want to ask you a question…”
