Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

Xiao Hu finally had an opportunity to display his abilities. His eyes lit up as he spoke, “How about Deep Blue, the seven-star hotel? It’s on the Second Ring Road in Jing City. It isn’t too far from here and if there isn’t a traffic jam, you should be able to arrive there within twenty minutes.”

Deep Blue was a hotel in Jing City famous for its scenery. Not only were its hot springs the cleanest locally, but it also offered a seven-star service. They also had unique, deep sea-themed rooms. Jing City was not close to the ocean, and through the artificial seaview, it could satisfy the desire to face the sea whilst ensuring the guests’ safety.

Mo Jingshen’s fingers tapped against the table for a moment. He turned to see that Ji Nuan was still looking for food in the buffet area; she picked up some bacon before ordering a bowl of vegetarian noodles. It seemed like she had no plan of returning to the table anytime soon.

His expression remained unchanged as he asked, “How many days of work schedule are remaining?”

“There are still a few partners you have to meet personally. This includes the finance representatives in contact with Hai City’s side. There are also two meetings organized by the National Chamber of Commerce, as well as several last-minute meetings. I’m sure CEO Ji also has some of her own business partners she needs visit; after all, it’s rare for her to come to Jing City. Adding it all up, it should end within a week.” Xiao Hu calculated the time as he spoke, “For now, it’ll be best if we remained in Sheng Tang Hotel. After all, this is Shine’s place. Most of the meetings and business discussions will be held here as well. It’s convenient to do everything here. After work ends, you can move to the seven-star hotel, Deep Blue, for another three to four days. ”

By now, Ji Nuan had returned with the bowl of vegetarian noodles cradled in her hands. As she placed it down, she lifted her head to see that Xiao Hu was seriously planning out the schedule. He even brought out his planner every so often to take a look. Mo Jingshen, on the other hand, was calmly drinking his coffee.

She pretended as if nothing happened last night and quietly ate her food.

After breakfast, they began the work on the schedule for the day.

Today, the first place they had to visit was an exhibition hall; they had agreed to meet with a business partner there. It was also the furthest place they would have to visit during their time in Jing City. According to Xiao Hu, the car ride would take longer than two hours, and because of the long-distance, there was the possibility of encountering several traffic jams.

Ji Nuan made an understanding noise, indicating that she had heard him, and did not say more. Since she couldn’t sleep last night, it wasn’t a bad idea to nap for two hours in the car. Mo Jingshen clearly saw through her thoughts. The moment she turned back, she met the man’s gaze; it was hidden with a smile, and it instantly ignited her rage.

Exactly whose fault was it that she slept poorly last night?

The moment she climbed in the car, Ji Nuan sat closely pressed against the door. Mo Jingshen watched the way she was obviously keeping a distance from him and couldn’t help narrowing his eyes. “The car is only so big. How far can you possibly run from me? Do you need me to arrange another car for you?”

Ji Nuan originally thought that their transport would be arranged by various business partners, and did not expect that Mo Jingshen would choose to simplify things. He only allowed Xiao Hu to drive them and did not arrange for any other fanfare. As a result, she had to sit on the same vehicle with him every day.

“Naturally, it’ll be great if you could really do that.” Ji Nuan did not refuse him.

The man’s handsome and tall figure appeared graceful, cold, and noble. He coldly narrowed his eyes at her. “Don’t even think about it.”

Ji Nuan: “…”

“When you were feeling unwell, you enjoyed the care I gave you and ate the porridge I personally made for you. Now that you’re sitting in my car, you’re still trying to keep a distance from me, and you even want me to arrange a separate car for you? Did you come here for a business trip or to anger me?”

Ji Nuan chuckled, answering unhappily, “In the name of caring for me, you ran into my room in the middle of the night. Why didn’t you bring up the things you did while ‘caring’ for me?”

Xiao Hu, who was in the car: “…”

God, somebody please block his ears, please! This sort of flirtatious banter was very torturous, all right?

The man watched her and seemed to be smiling imperceptibly. “I saw that you weren’t especially refusing my appearance every night. When did I not leave you fully satisfied with my car?”

Ah, aaah.

She was indeed satisfied.

Satisfied to the point where she could barely sleep last night.

Ji Nuan leaned against the car door and tried her best to maintain as much distance as she could from him.

The man glanced at her: “Come over here. Don’t sit against the door. Doesn’t it feel uncomfortable to lean against it?”

“I’m quite all right sitting here.” Ji Nuan stubbornly turned toward the window.

The location they were headed to was truly quite far. After sitting against the door for nearly half an hour, she began to find it hard and uncomfortable to lean on. Furthermore, her back had begun to ache from sitting for so long. Earlier, she had wanted to sleep in the car for two hours. Sleep what sleep, ah. There was no way she could sleep like this.

However, it would be too embarrassing if she tried to sit over now.

Her waist ached from being pressed against the side of the door. As she raised her hand to rub it, the man reached his long arm over and firmly pulled her over without giving her an opportunity to refuse or struggle. He then kept his arm around her shoulders, pressing her down. Ji Nuan was fully brought into his embrace.

Ji Nuan: “…”

Mo Jingshen did not let go of her. “Even when you’re uncomfortable, you’re stubborn about staying there. Do you insist on maintaining a distance from me even when your back is hurting? Make the decision on your own, would you rather sleep in my arms for a while, or lean against the door to glare at me while using up your already infinitesimal amount of energy?”

Ji Nuan was forcefully pressed in his arms. She struggled a while but could not move, and turned to look at Xiao Hu who remained staring ahead while pretending that he was unaware of anything. She then turned back to Mo Jingshen and rolled her eyes at him. “Mo Jingshen, where is your face? If I wish to sleep, is there a posture I can’t sleep in? Why must I lean in your arms?”

“Ah.”

“…”

She watched his mild and noble demeanor in response to her mocking words and felt that he was completely unaffected by her. It was clear that he had been deeply satisfied last night and his mood was extremely good today.

But her mood was extremely poor!

Ji Nuan even suspected if he would begin boasting about how warm and comfortable his embrace was.

Thankfully, he did not. As he held her, he gently patted her back comfortingly. “There’s a long day ahead of us. Are you sure you won’t take a nap?”

“I’ll lean against the side to sleep.”

Ji Nuan’s expression was stiff. She raised her hand and tried to push the man’s arm away.

After a long moment, she could barely move him. She unhappily turned to eye the man’s hand and lowered her head to bite on it. In the end, before she could even touch him, the man had already shifted his arm to her waist. This empty bite left Ji Nuan silently glaring at her own shoulder.
