Exchanging pleasantries, they came into the elevator. As Ji Nuan guessed, Deputy Director Chen was very curious about the Shine Group. Even the slightly more technically designed elevator amazed him, and he kept asking Shen Mu questions. Fortunately, Shen Mu was gentle, patient, and better at dealing with people than ordinary assistants. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be entrusted with such an important post by Mo Jingshen for many years.
As they chatted, the elevator reached the floor where the meeting room was. Deputy Director Chen walked in front, and Ji Nuan followed slowly behind. When she passed by an office, she saw there were many employees who she hadn’t seen before inside, as well as many old employees who she knew. She looked away so as not to arouse their curiosity and gossip.
At this time, Shen Mu stepped back and walked beside Ji Nuan. Today, she was wearing very casual, close-fitting jeans and a translucent white chiffon shirt with long sleeves. Her shoulder-length hair was slightly curly, which made her look very professional. She looked so calm as if she was not in the former Mo Corporation but just a place to attend a meeting.
“Are you hot in trousers in this weather?” Seeing Ji Nuan have no intention to speak to him, Shen Mu, walking beside her, asked her with a smile.
Ji Nuan took a look at him and said indifferently, “Assistant Shen, why do you pay so much attention to me? Do I have to explain to you why I’m dressed like this?”
The corner of Shen Mu’s mouth twitched. “Well, sorry, no offense.”
“Assistant Shen, you’d better not pay so much attention to me. It’s my first time to your company. Why don’t you introduce me to your company? Isn’t it more proper?”
Hearing her emphasized “first time,” Shen Mu knew that Ji Nuan didn’t want others to know her previous relationship with Mo Jingshen at all.
“Assistant Shen, our boss had some cuts and bruises in the arms and legs. Although it’s all right now, there are some red marks, so she wears trousers to cover up the marks. She’ll be able to dress normally in a few days when the marks are gone,” Xiao Ba whispered in the side.
No sooner than Shen Mu nodded at Xiao Ba, Ji Nuan reached back and took the documents from Xiao Ba’s arms, saying coldly, “You talk outside. I’ll go in.”
Knowing that Ji Nuan was blaming her for speaking too much, Xiao Ba followed Ji Nuan into the meeting room with a nervous look on her face.
When everyone took a seat, Ji Nuan went in and greeted the others. When she was about to sit down, there was a sudden sound of men’s footsteps outside the meeting room, which were particularly clear in the conference room, which was suddenly hushed.
Ji Nuan turned around and saw Mo Jingshen coming in.
The clear features of the handsome man perfectly coincided with that cold and dark face the day he carried her into the hospital.
He was wearing black trousers that set off his straight, slender legs and pure white shirt, which was all buttoned up. With a cold, noble, and elite aura, he looked very different from the sexy yet austere look he had when he was not in his company with a few buttons of his shirt unbuttoned.
Although this meeting was held by the construction bureau, it was held in Shine. With a smile on his lips, he looked around at the people and said in his magnetic voice, “I didn’t know Deputy Director Chen decided to hold the meeting in Shine, so I didn’t go out to welcome you. Please forgive me for the bad reception.”
“It’s all right. I know CEO Mo is very busy, and you’re appreciated for taking the time to meet with us. We chose to hold meetings here because it’s close to the site of the stadium, and the Shine Group is so large that we won’t have to worry about the meeting room.” Deputy Director Chen said and came up to shake hands with him.
After some pleasantries, Mo Jingshen withdrew his hands, and the meeting began.
Ji Nuan sat still, but Deputy Director Chen hurriedly stood up and invited Mo Jingshen to take his seat enthusiastically.
Then Deputy Director Chen told everyone else to move back by a seat. In the end, the seat beside Ji Nuan was emptied, and he sat down directly to her right.
“Sitting more closely, we can talk more conveniently.” Deputy Director Chen said and moved closer to Ji Nuan.
Ji Nuan just smiled and looked away, only to see that Mo Jingshen sitting in the leather chair at the conference table, his long legs folded elegantly in the close-fitting black trousers, and between his long, gnarled fingers were the papers the secretary had just handed him. In front of the conference room, a huge high-definition screen projected plans for the stadium. To present the drawings more clearly, there were no lights on in the conference room, and only the pictures on the blue screen kept scrolling.
Under the blue light, the man’s extremely handsome face was blurred but looked very cold.
Casting a glance at Ji Nuan, whose sleeve was grabbed by Deputy Director Chen, Mo Jingshen curved the corners of his mouth and showed a cold smile, saying in a low and emotionless voice, “Deputy Director Chen, are you here for the meeting or for CEO Ji? Did you forget there are still many other leaders and partners here?”
As soon as Mo Jingshen said this, Deputy Director Chen shivered and immediately let go of Ji Nuan’s sleeve.
Ji Nuan took the chance to withdraw her arm and calmly looked at the pictures on the big screen and the staff who were standing in front and analyzing the drawings of the stadium.
Seeing that Deputy Director Chen didn’t dare to ogle Ji Nuan again or grab her sleeve to whisper to her, Mo Jingshen threw the document in his hand on the meeting table and signaled others to continue the meeting.
Some of the attendees were in Mr. Xiao’s birthday party when they saw Mo Jingshen carried Ji Nuan out who was injured. Some saw Mo Jingshen, who always kept a distance from women, teach Ji Nuan how to play dart in the seaside resort, and some had accidentally noticed or sensed there was some special relationship between CEO Ji of the MN Group and Mo Jingshen, but none of them dared to discuss or gossip about them.
Seeing Mo Jingshen scold Deputy Director Chen after harassing Ji Nuan, they were more certain that there must be some special relationship between CEO Ji and CEO Mo. The room was quiet except for the staff standing in front of the screen.
There were a lot of people in the meeting room, so the air-conditioning temperature was very low. Most of the men present were wearing shirts, suits, and trousers. When they all felt a little cold, Ji Nuan also felt cold.
When she accidentally rubbed her arms through the long-sleeved chiffon sweater, the man sitting at the front didn’t seem to look at her, but his cold and placid voice suddenly rang. “Shen Mu, turn up the temperature of the air-conditioner.”
