Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Mo Jingshen’s tone was calm, but it was layered with cold danger.

Ji Nuan suddenly felt a sharp frost seeping into her bones from this man who was usually gentle and patient with her.

“It’s actually not a big issue. They can’t bully me,” Ji Nuan softly whispered in his embrace.

However, Mo Jingshen only gently caressed her hair, warmly saying, “Be good, some people have to be disciplined. Just because your temper is good, doesn’t mean I will tolerate it.”

Miss Han’s expression was about to crumble, while the crowd by the side cried in their minds.

Ji Nuan’s temper is good?

When has her temper ever been good?

Did Ji Nuan actually possess outstanding acting skills, or was this the so-called ‘beauty is in the eye of the beholder’?

Ji Nuan was stunned into silence for a moment. She then gently pinched his sleeve, whispering, “My goal in today’s evening party is to leave a good impression on the leaders of the city hall’s National Land Office. Taking back my face will suffice, don’t tangle yourself in such matters.”

Mo Jingshen pressed a kiss on her hair comfortingly. “All right, I understand.”

His attitude could not be considered too gentle, but the various wealthy young ladies present, including Miss Han, were all green with envy.

The typically cold and indifferent man actually doted and loved Ji Nuan above all; what right did she have!

“CEO Mo... let’s just let today’s incident go...” Miss Han’s father thickened his skin to speak up. “This... My daughter is also partially at fault here. Her favorite gown was dirtied, and it caused her to lose control of her emotions. She offended Mrs. Mo, but it’s really...”

Miss Han’s father wanted to continue speaking but was silenced by Mo Jingshen’s gaze. “I dislike watching my woman being publicly humiliated more than anything. Everyone present here, who else wants to watch her take off her clothes?”

Both Miss Han and Miss Lin began to tremble involuntarily.

Sheng Yihan did not feel much about the situation earlier. Now that Ji Nuan was held in Mo Jingshen’s embrace, his gaze swept passed Mo Jingshen, revealing an amused smile.

Glancing at Miss Han, who was trembling from fear, Mo Jingshen’s black eyes scanned her darkly. “Didn’t you want a public confirmation of her figure? Since you were the first to look for trouble, we’ll start from you. Take off your clothes.”

Miss Han’s expression stiffened as she held her skirt in a deathly tight grip. On the one hand, she was scared witless by Mo Jingshen, and on the other hand, her face had turned red from Mo Jingshen’s forceful demand of taking off her clothes.

Seeing that this Miss Han could still blush in such a situation, Ji Nuan’s heart felt unhappy. She raised her eyes to look at Mo Jingshen. The man lowered his lids to meet the gaze of the jealous woman in his embrace, before taking a glance at the time; he understood she no longer had any patience to deal with these people.

He then glanced back at them. “Those who were stirring up trouble earlier, whoever wishes to see them take off their clothes, this Mo doesn’t mind opening up a big hall in the hotel for you to see your fill.”

Although the crowd was large, the hall was silent; No one dared to speak up.

Everyone could hear Mo Jingshen’s intentions in ‘opening up a big hall’ was actually to send these troublesome people to a certain place; anyhow, it was not going to be a good place, and they were definitely going to have a tough pill to swallow.

“Not taking it off, is it?” Mo Jingshen then threw another frosty glance at Miss Han before he coldly chuckled. “Then shall we listen to Mr., Sheng’s earlier suggestion and dig out the first pair of eyes?”

Miss Han’s face instantly turned pale, her eyes filling up with terror. “I...”

Mo Jingshen’s cold, indifferent eyes swept through the crowd. Instantly, bodyguards charged in from every direction. Feng Ling, who had stayed in her position earlier with the assumption that Ji Nuan would be able to manage things well, also stepped forward.

Mo Jingshen’s tone was unhurried, but it contained an iciness that seeped into their bones. “Bring her away, take off her clothes, and throw her outside the hotel entrance.”

“No!” Miss Han suddenly shrieked, “I won’t take off my clothes! I don’t want to!”

Those guards had already rushed forward to hold her down. Miss Han struggled and shrieked frantically. “I don’t want to... no... CEO Mo, you can’t do this to me. My clothes were dirtied by Ji Nuan. I only wanted to play a joke on her; I didn’t actually plan on doing anything...”

Mo Jingshen’s lips curved up into a cold smile. He glanced at her as though she was the true joke. “So, do you want to take it off yourself, or do you want my people to take it off for you?”

“I’ll take it off! I-I’ll take it off...” Miss Han tugged her hand out and pulled down the sleeve of her gown while crying. Although her action only opened her gown slightly, she still felt extremely humiliated. She wailed miserably at Mo Jingshen, begging for him to let her off.

Mo Jingshen’s cold gaze did not land on her. He turned to glance at the dumbstruck Miss Lin by the side. “Do you want my people to help you or will you do it yourself?”

Miss Lin was startled to realize that she would also be punished. She stood unmoving in embarrassment, and as the guards approached her, she cried out in alarm. She hugged her shoulders and sat on the ground, crying and refusing to take it off.

Miss Han’s father could not stand watching any longer. He could only politely whisper to Ji Nuan, “Miss Mo... We were truly in the wrong today, but this... There are many government officials here today. It won’t benefit anyone to stir up a big fuss here...”

What he meant was for Ji Nuan to beg for their forgiveness. He understood that if Ji Nuan did not speak up, Mo Jingshen would be able to settle the accounts with everyone present.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ji Nuan considered for a moment; although she did not possess such a benevolent heart, she honestly did not wish for Mo Jingshen to stir up too much of a fuss for her.

She did not want for her own problems to implicate him, especially when it came to these issues between women...

Ji Nuan was about to raise her head in his embrace when she heard Mo Jingshen speak up from above. “Using the political world to warn her; do you think this Mo is only decoration?”

Miss Han’s father was instantly embarrassed.

Indeed.

No one among the present people dared to refute Mo Jingshen. Even the people from the political side had to give him face.

In such a situation, the government officials would try to mollify Mo Jingshen’s temper. Who would dare form a poor impression of Ji Nuan in his embrace...

By the side, Miss Han continued crying while tugging at her clothes. Her movements were feeble.

Mo Jingshen’s gaze did not turn in her direction. Instead, he gently caressed Ji Nuan’s head, asking softly, “Do you feel better now?”

Ji Nuan nodded. Although it was indeed very satisfying, she still tugged on his sleeves to whisper, “Let them off with a few apologies, all right? I still have to interact with these people. I can’t leave them with too poor of an impression. Otherwise, they’ll keep their distance from me in the future.”

There was a pin-drop silence in the hall. The only thing that could be heard was Miss Han’s trembling body.

Hearing Ji Nuan’s words, Miss Han suddenly turned to her with a bright red face. She really did not wish to take off her clothes any further and could only cry out an apology. “Mrs. Mo, I’m sorry... I admit I spilled red wine on myself intentionally earlier. I shouldn’t have looked for trouble. It was my fault!”
