Ji Nuan pursed her lips. “No way. I’m only suited to be your wife; for you to kiss and hug, and to be raised up high. If you were to be my teacher, I predict that in just a few days, I’ll be disciplined into having a glass heart.”
The smile on Mo Jingshen’s handsome face was bright. He reached out to serve her a bowl of soup. “How could I possibly scold you?”
It was true. He would not scold her.
He would only use his actions to make her cry from night to day. Wasn’t that much worse?
“Eat first, don’t sit there in a daze.” Mo Jingshen reminded.
Ji Nuan picked up her bowl and began eating. After speedily finishing her food, she ran upstairs and entered Mo Jingshen’s study to look for books.
In the end, after looking for a time, she still could not find any suitable books. Instead, there were a lot of well-known overseas and domestic business records and books in various languages. The remaining were all files from the company temporarily being stored at home.
She really could not find any. Ji Nuan gave up on his study and was about to head out, only to see the man standing right by the study door.
The light in the study room was not exceptionally bright, but it blended with the moonlight coming through the window, giving him a clear and breezy aura. It also made him look slightly mysterious.
“What are you looking for?” He walked in, reaching out to hold Ji Nuan’s back and pulling her in front of him. His fingers gently caressed her hair and her thin waist, while his warm breath landed on Ji Nuan’s cheeks. He was warm and seductive.
Ji Nuan thought in her heart that she really could not let Mo Jingshen teach her.
Otherwise, she predicted that when she sought his help, he would first toss her into bed like this for a round of tenderness. It would really delay her learning.
“I thought there would be books related to corporate management here, but there isn’t even one.”
“I don’t read those things, so there naturally aren’t any.”
Some geniuses are really born that way. He managed such a company, yet he remained completely in control. When Mo Jingshen finally takes over Shine Group, he would most likely handle it with similar ease, displaying even more skills.
Mo Jingshen’s phone rang. Ji Nuan did not wish to delay his work and turned to pick up an original work with classic business cases to read.
When he returned after hanging up the call, she was sitting on the bed reading. The man picked her up and placed her on his leg.
Ji Nuan’s gaze shifted away from the book as she looked up at him. “Why are you looking at me? I don’t understand all of the books in other languages in your study. The only one I can read is this English one.”
Mo Jingshen glanced at her before taking the book from her. He flipped through it and only stopped in the middle before handing it back to her.
“Behind this page, there are several cases on property sales abroad,” he calmly said.
Ji Nuan thoughtfully scanned through it before raising her head to stare at his handsome, perfect face in shock. “There are at least seven or eight books of different languages on that shelf. You can’t have read them all? You remember the contents of all of them?”
He chuckled softly, unhurriedly hugging her. “Having a good memory is a necessary skill for anyone managing a business. Regardless of when or where you must have an impression of all the significant and minor details of the company. This way, you’ll be able to gain a better picture of every situation and make the best analysis and strategies.”
Ji Nuan raised her book. “Are you already lecturing me? If you can maintain the attitude of a gentleman, I will reconsider letting you teach me.”
Mo Jingshen resisted a smile, rubbing her head. “I’ve thoroughly touched every part of you countless of times, and you want me to be a gentleman now. Lying to oneself is not the attitude one should have when managing a business.”
“…”
There was no way to win him with words!
Ji Nuan decided to lower her head and continue reading.
Late in the night, she was still laying on the bed with her eyes fixed on the book. Mo Jingshen picked her up and placed her into the bed, calmly saying, “Grandfather called earlier. He wants us to stay for a night at the Mo home the day after.”
“So suddenly? Did something happen?”
Mo Jingshen brought Ji Nuan into his embrace. “An Shuyan and her father are currently guests at the Mo home. Their flight back to America has been confirmed for this weekend. Although Grandfather doesn’t plan on forming a close relationship with the An family, as the head of the family, he still has to be polite. He wants us back for a meal with them as a farewell.”
“Why do I feel like this isn’t a request grandfather would make.” Ji Nuan raised her head to look at Mo Jingshen’s expression.
Mo Jingshen rubbed her head. “You’ve seen through it, yet you refuse to admit it; you quick-witted one! With me around, regardless of whether it’s at the Mo family or the Ji family, no one would dare to bully you.”
Ji Nuan bit down on his chin. “It’s good enough that I didn’t bully An Shuyan. Who would dare to bully me, ah…”
Mo Jingshen bit back on her lips. “I dare.”
Ji Nuan raised her head and continued biting him. The two nibbled on each other for a long while, and as Ji Nuan’s breath quickened, she quickly called for a pause and obediently stopped moving under him.
Mo Jingshen’s hand held her slightly cold feet under the blanket. His brows wrinkled. “Your feet are so cold.”
“It’s approaching mid-autumn. The temperature outside is only slightly higher than zero degrees. Whenever it’s this time of the year, both my hands and feet will be cold.” Ji Nuan allowed him to hold her feet as he pleased and did not tug them out. “The elders say that having cold feet means there isn’t anyone doting on you.”
Mo Jingshen kissed the corner of her lips. “Don’t I dote on you enough?”
Ji Nuan was only casually speaking but was instantly killed by a few words of his. Without any words to refute, she could only move her feet in his grip. In an instant, he tightened his grip.
“I won’t bully you anymore. Rest early. When we return to the Mo home, soak in the hot springs. It’ll help with your weakness against cold.” His tone was unhurried.
Ji Nuan’s eyes instantly shined. “The hot springs in the mountain behind the Mo home? Aren’t outsiders prohibited from entering?”
“You are Mrs. Mo, not an outsider.” Mo Jingshen used his gaze to warn her to place her book aside, commanding, “Sleep.”
Perhaps because she was used to being disciplined by him on the bed, Ji Nuan obediently placed the book on the bedside table.
——
The next day.
While Feng Ling was driving, Ji Nuan was reading the news on her phone. She suddenly saw the news that Hai Cheng’s Tian Sheng Investment company had closed.
Even if the police were interfering, they could not have moved so quickly. Furthermore, the party with money was always more powerful. If CEO Xiao and CEO Jin both had the intention to hold onto the company, they would be able to reduce the scandal into a small matter. It would be then difficult for the police to continue interfering.
However, this company was suddenly dropped from the market. This was akin to closing down in a single night.
Ji Nuan’s finger paused on the screen as she turned to look at Feng Ling who was driving. “You told Mo Jingshen about what happened last night?”
Feng Ling replied while seriously driving. “Yes.”
No wonder.
Mo Jingshen was indeed too scheming. He appeared so calm last night, but a whole company had actually quietly died under his hand within a day.
