Chapter 186 In This Lifetime, I Actually Managed to Catch a Glimpse of President Mo!
“I didn’t want to accept this at all, you cant blame me, ah. I suspect my assistant must have found this watch too expensive and couldn’t bear to throw it away, so she stuffed it in my bag. I completely didn’t notice it on my way back;’ Ji Nuan explained helplessly. 0
Mo Jingshen looked at her for a moment and did not speak before he decisively tossed that pink watch into the trash bin.
Ji Nuan did not even look at the watch. She
felt that he could throw it as he pleased; it was what she had intended to do anyway. She did not plan on accepting anything from Sheng Yihan.
At this moment, Mo Jingshen received a call from the company and stepped into the study.
Ten minutes later.
The study door was opened once more. The man stepped out expressionlessly and began to flip through the bin for the watch. He held it and left the room.
“What are you doing?” Ji Nuan asked suspiciously.
When Ji Nuan followed him out, she saw
Auntie Chen carrying a cup of water up the stairs. Mo Jingshen saw this as well and casually raised his hand, tossing the watch into the cup.
The cup was still steaming with hot water. In that silent moment, it ceased to move and was frozen at nine in the evening. With the distance between them, the little boy and girl were unable to touch one another, and they never would be able to again.
Auntie Chen held the cup, startled. It had happened so quickly that she was unable to react.
As Ji Nuan’s body was weak to the cold, Auntie Chen would always boil a cup of hot water for her at this time, serving it to her
after it cooled down. She never missed a day.
But today…
Ji Nuan stood by the door, pursing her lips.
Breaking it once and for all, such a method was indeed very much like Mo Jingshen.
This sort of expensive watch could resist being soaked or smashed, but it was weak to boiling water.
“Mr. Mo…” Auntie Chen stared dumbstruck at the cup. This watch…?”
“Toss it.” Mo Jingshen’s tone was cold.
Auntie Chen nodded her head. Since the water couldn’t be drink anymore, she
carried the cup down the stairs quickly, planning to send a new cup up.
Before heading back into the room, Mo Jingshen glanced at Ji Nuan. “What are you looking at? Unwilling to part with it?”
Ji Nuan giggled. After all, she had to leave for T City soon. She couldn’t pick such a time to provoke him.
Of course I can! I’ve been wanting to toss it out since morning!” While speaking, she followed him into the room.
After closing the door, Mo Jingshen saw she appeared to have something to say. He glanced at her mildly. “Look at that flattering smile; are you so afraid that I wont let you go to T City?”
..” There was no need to always expose her like this.
Ji Nuan pursed her lips: “The classes are starting soon…”
“Since you’ve already planned to go, set your mind at ease and go study. Someone else will help to arrange the other things.” Mo Jingshen’s tone remained unkind; he was clearly giving into her for her so-called big goals, but Sheng Yihan’s apparent and brave provocation kept his tone from turning warm.
“Really? Then I’ll have to rush to delegate all the projects in the studio. Several of my assistants and subordinates have gone to Xia Tian’s place tonight. I was planning to
have a video conference with them. I’ll take the opportunity to give them some clear instructions: Seeing that Mo Jingshen’s expression remained unhappy, Ji Nuan took the initiative and hugged his arm.
Mo Jingshen coldly glanced at her. After checking that she did not reveal any inappropriate emotions after Sheng Yihan’s provocation, he said mildly, The computer is still turned on. Go:
Ji Nuan checked the clock and saw that it was nearing their agreed meeting time. Seeing that Mo Jingshen planned to let her off and did not further pursue the matter, she wrapped her arms around his neck with a smile, pulling him down to press a kiss on the corner of his lips.
After kissing him, she was afraid that he would toss her on the bed and quickly slithered out of his embrace, running into the study.
Ji Nuan sat in front of the computer, having a video conference with Xia Tian and the rest.
Based on the timetable given, she had to leave for T City the day after. Although three months of schooling would pass by in a blink of an eye, the studio was still in its developmental stages. The studio had her blood, sweat, and tears in it, and she needed to give them detailed instructions to set her mind at ease.
As Mo Jingshen often needed to have video conferences with his overseas partners, the computer in his study had an extremely high-definition camera. From Xia Tian’s side of the screen, it appeared as though Ji Nuan was sitting right across from them.
During the conference, Xia Tian held the project files Xiao Ba had handed to her and said, “Don’t worry, in these three months, I’ll definitely help to stabilize your sales position in Hai City’s property industry. I’ve seen the land and properties you’ve purchased, as well as the projects that are under development. Your foresight is indeed good. You’ve already gathered the important cornerstones, there’s no need for me to work too hard. I’ll just have to .
guard what we already have, and it’ll be sufficient. Have confidence in us:
Ji Nuan held her chin, looking at them. Of course I have confidence. Hai City’s geographical location is also blessed by the heavens. Fm not in a rush to sell out. Right now, the most important thing is to take care of the studio’s personnel. Watch the people who are coming in carefully. There isn’t a need to hire too many people, but make sure we are making full use of all of them:
Afterward, they had a simple discussion about expanding the studio space. Several colleagues in Xia Tian’s home also pointed out several operational problems that were often neglected. Ji Nuan spoke seriously
with them, exchanging thoughts on how to increase the rates at which their immovable properties and resources were being converted into liquid funds, while at the same time preventing any loss.
After a lengthy discussion, Xia Tian suddenly appeared flabbergasted on the screen. Xiao Ba also stared at Ji Nuan in shock.
Ji Nuan glanced at them in confusion, subconsciously turning back only to discover that at some point, Mo Jingshen had stepped into the room.
The man was holding the glass of water Auntie Chen had sent in earlier. Right now, the water temperature was suitable for her
to drink. As he stood there, the glass in his hand reflected the warm light in the study. It seemed like he did not intend to interrupt her conference.
However, those across the screen were already looking straight…
Xiao Ba suddenly exclaimed, “In this lifetime, I actually managed to catch a glimpse of President Mo!” 0
Ji Nuan: “…”
