“Right now I’m in your arms, doesn’t that make it more uncomfortable for you?” Ji Nuan carefully maintained a distance from him. Yet, even so, she could still feel the frightening heat from his body.
What sort of restraint did Mo Jingshen have that even when the circumstances were like this, he was still able to tolerate it?
“With the way you look right now, there’s no difference for me whether you are standing over there or seating in my arms.” Mo Jingshen held her waist, breathing in her refreshing fragrance accompanied by the scent of rain on her body. “Why not sit here and let me hold you.”
Ji Nuan sat unmoving in his embrace. However, his suffering caused her heart to be in discomfort.
The man held her this way; his head pressed against her snow-white neck. His burning hot kiss landed on her collarbone, causing her body to shiver.
Feeling her sensitive reaction, Mo Jingshen tightened further. He decided to close his eyes and not look at her, choosing to chat to distract himself. He asked, “How did you know I was here?”
“An Shuyan went to the Mo family home,” Ji Nuan answered honestly. “She said that although she wished to be with you, she didn’t want to use such a method, so the person sent today wasn’t her but another female secretary working with her.”
Ji Nuan had no need to lie, nor to speak poorly of An Shuyan.
After all, even she was able to notice An Shuyan’s motives. There was no way Mo Jingshen was not aware of it.
As expected, when he heard her words, Mo Jingshen opened his eyes and his gaze became colder. He tightened his grip around Ji Nuan, softly saying, “And so, earlier, you climbed up from below?”
Although he was softly asking against her ear, his voice still carried some danger.
Ji Nuan stuttered for a moment as she thought about how she could phrase it to prevent angering him. “I was too impatient and worried you would be taken advantage of, so I…”
“What I asked was, did you climb up from below?” Mo Jingshen’s tone became colder. His slanted eyes stared at her.
“…”
Ji Nuan thought back to the disturbing experience earlier. When she arrived on the 32nd floor, she had nearly fallen down since the rainwater was too slippery. She did not have any protective gear on her, so the fact that she was able to keep her life was truly a blessing from god.
“I didn’t climb too high up. I started on the 30th floor, so I only climbed three floors,” she said softly without much confidence.
“Three stories?” Mo Jingshen’s gaze turned icy. His tone was obviously angry and reprimanding. “Do you know how high up this is? Even firefighters have to use ladders and ropes to get up here. Did you climb up just like that? Don’t you want your life anymore?”
“But the 31st to 35th floor have all been locked down. I didn’t have any choice. And aren’t I all right right now?” Ji Nuan reached out to tug on his shirt, pulling on it gently as she muttered softly, “My luck and my life is big. It’s all right!”
Yet, at this moment, Mo Jingshen’s gaze was deep to the point of frightening others. He focused on the abrasion on her face and suddenly pushed her hand away. Ji Nuan was startled and thought he was truly angered. She rushed to stand up, yet the man had already left to turn the bathroom light to the brightest state. The sudden brightness caused Ji Nuan to squint her eyes. In an instant, he had returned to the bathroom.
Without waiting for her to get up, Mo Jingshen expressionlessly held onto her little ankle that was no longer cramping. He tugged it up, and before Ji Nuan could even gasp in surprise, he had already pulled up her pants. After seeing the red scratches left on her knees and legs by the air-conditioning, his gaze instantly became icier.
“I’m really all right. These are all superficial injuries; they didn’t cut deep…”
Mo Jingshen did not speak as he pushed her sleeves up. He saw the scratches on her wrist and elbows were much more serious than on her legs. He then flipped her hand over to reveal her swollen and scratched fingers and palm.
Ji Nuan had on a guilty look. She tried to retrieve her hand but was firmly held by the man.
“It’s really all right… this is just…”
Ji Nuan wanted to speak but saw Mo Jingshen’s expression was frighteningly heavy.
She pursed her lips and suddenly smiled to say, “Thankfully, the security in this hotel is not that thorough. Otherwise, I most likely would have been discovered quickly when I was climbing earlier. The distance between each room is not so far. In between, the air-conditioners are very firmly installed and could be used as stairs. It’s actually really safe. I wasn’t even scared, so you don’t have to…”
Her words had yet to finish when all of a sudden, Mo Jingshen held onto the back of her head and pushed her heavily into his embrace.
It was a very heavy, very tight type of embrace.
In that instant, she could not speak. It was as though she was completely pressed into his body.
The man did not speak a single word and only held her.
Ji Nuan gradually quietened down and no longer tried to explain herself. She also did not make any more noises and only quietly allowed him to hold her. She pressed her face against his burning neck and closed her eyes.
One night of heart-shaking fear. Regardless of it all, at the very least, they had not lost each other. That was good enough.
Earlier on, when she had climbed up from the 30th floor, she did not think much of it. She only wanted to rush up, to look for him, and to see him. Even if there was the possibility of falling and breaking her bones, she did not want to lose the smallest opportunity to help him.
Even if right now she had finally calmed down, she still did not regret anything.
Ji Nuan stayed in his embrace, closing her eyes. She moved her hand up to his well-defined back to hold him but opened her eyes when she felt his burning body. She asked softly in his embrace, “Do you want to soak in cold water?”
Mo Jingshen held her and did not release her. He gently dropped a kiss on the top of her head. “With you here, even dropping me into an ice bucket would be useless.”
“Then what should we do? Should we switch off the lights? The surveillance cameras shouldn’t be able to capture anything.”
Mo Jingshen did not speak.
“Could it be that the surveillance cameras have a night vision function?” Ji Nuan suddenly raised her head to look at him.
He stared at her, silently agreeing.
“…”
Mo Shaoze was too ruthless.
Although, it was not as if he would intentionally watch his son in bed with some other woman. The purpose of installing the cameras was most likely to use as evidence in case Mo Jingshen refused to admit it. So, the choice of night vision cameras was surely…
“Then what should we do?” Ji Nuan felt that he was burning up even more than earlier.
Mo Jingshen’s brows moved. He lowered his eyes to look at her and suddenly smiled. At this moment, his clothing was slightly disheveled, and his darkened gaze was not wholly composed. His slanted body had a gloomy yet attractive scent.
“It’s fine. The sky is already brightening. This sort of medicine would usually lose its effects after 12 hours.”
“Right now, it’s only one in the morning…” Ji Nuan lowered her head and suddenly raised her hands, “Or, I’ll use my hands… to help you…”
Mo Jingshen’s gaze instantly became darker and more dangerous. He narrowed his distant, dark eyes and saw the apparent wounds on her palms. He pressed her hands down, bending over to bite her lips almost as though he was venting. “Little vixen, right now your husband’s mental state is so weak. If you dare to seduce me any further, I might not even be able to control the consequences myself.”
