Half an hour later, Ji Nuan came downstairs.

Feng Ling was already waiting for her.

“Mrs. Mo.” Feng Ling approached. “Mr. Mo is leaving today?”

“En.”

“All right. Then from today onward, I’ll continue accompanying you at T University.”

“Are the wounds on your elbow fully healed?”

“They had healed a while ago. It’s fine. President Mo wouldn’t have been at ease with me by your side if I still had problems.”

On their way to T University, Ji Nuan casually said, “I noticed that you trimmed your hair. It was actually quite nice when it was grown out slightly. You trimmed it so short, those who don’t know might think that the person by my side isn’t a female bodyguard, but a handsome little boy with beautiful skin.”

“Isn’t this exactly President Mo’s wish? If it appears that there is a handsome boy by your side, who would dare to approach you carelessly.” Feng Ling chuckled lightly.

“...It was fine when you didn’t mention it, but now that you’ve brought it up, I can’t help but suspect if this was his exact intentions when he assigned you by my side.” Ji Nuan pursed her lips.

“Otherwise, why would he have me follow you all the way to T City?” Feng Ling lifted her brows slightly.

“...”

Mo Jingshen, this man, was truly cunning and full of schemes!

...

At night, Ji Nuan left T University and returned to the condo. This was her first night alone after Mo Jingshen’s return. After having his company for more than half a month, she was suddenly unable to adjust.

The kitchen was empty. The silhouette of Boss Mo who returned on time every day to cook personally for her was absent. He, who was used to holding her on the sofa, was nowhere to be found. Even the bed had no sign of him.

Only the bathroom had a razor left behind by the man. It was placed neatly in the cabinet, as though waiting for its owner’s return.

It was only the first night, and she had already begun to miss Mo Jingshen. How could this be?

In less than two days, Sheng Yihan’s car appeared and blocked Ji Nuan right at T University’s entrance.

When Sheng Yihan’s car appeared, Feng Ling immediately tugged Ji Nuan behind her. Her gaze was cold like knives as she watched the man’s face through the car windows.

“So cold?” Sheng Yihan sat in the car. His gaze scanned the two of them and finally landed on Ji Nuan’s composed expression.

Ji Nuan was expressionless as she watched him. “Does the Sheng Family have a lot of free time that you can come to T City to be an eyesore whenever you feel like it? Didn’t you bring Ji Mengran away a while ago? Now that she’s gone missing, rather than feigning sympathy, why have you come to look for me?”

Hearing the ridicule in her tone, Sheng Yihan coldly and indifferently said, “Ji Nuan.”

Ji Nuan raised her brows: “Please address me as Miss Ji or Mrs. Mo. I’m not familiar with you.”

The man coldly spoke, “Since you’re unable to let go of what happened years ago, I won’t force you to move on from it. My only question is, regarding the case of the Sheng Group’s Hong Kong shares being suddenly suppressed by the Mo Corporation, was it done on your request or was it single-handedly done by Mo Jingshen?”

Hearing this, Ji Nuan watched him and spoke casually and naturally: “Do you really need me to give you the answer? Do you think Mo Jingshen would have the time to shift his focus onto a secondary company like Sheng Group? It was naturally done because I find you displeasing to my eyes.”

Sheng Yihan gave a cold, mocking smile: “This isn’t the first day that Mo Jingshen is suppressing the Sheng Group. Did you think that he would wait for your request to act upon me? It’s only that he has begun to interfere even with our shares recently. I suppose you’re right. Without your involvement, there is no way he would put so much thought into controlling the Sheng Group’s lifeline.”

Ji Nuan gently pushed Feng Ling, who was standing before her, aside. She was quiet for a moment before speaking: “Since you already know of this, why did you come to ask? His actions and my intentions will not differ.”

“Ji Nuan.” As he spoke these two words, his tone was sharp. “Do you plan on always maintaining such an attitude when you speak to me?”

“How else would I speak to you? Mr. Sheng, who do you think you are? Do I need to be polite to you? As someone who used to hold that sort of role in my life, do you expect me to behave like a saint and express my forgiveness for you? I’m sure that I’ve always expressed such an attitude, and my stand has always been clear.”

Sheng Yihan suddenly chuckled. His smile was mild, but the corner of his lips carried dense frigid intent. After a moment, he concealed it.

Ji Nuan smiled on the surface as well, but her eyes did not contain any smiling intent. “Must I make things even more clear? Although I was young back then, I know that you weren’t as drunk as you made yourself appear.”

Neglecting the man’s sudden gaze, Ji Nuan turned and walked away.

Sheng Yihan did not follow them. The silver car was parked outside T University’s gates for a long time, unmoving.

The three months of classes at T University were finally approaching its end.

T University’s one-hundredth anniversary celebration was only three days away. On this day, the school’s internet service suddenly met with a problem. Both the students’ mobile data purchased from private companies and the school’s wireless data were down.

Ji Nuan only found out that night that someone had anonymously posted the photos of Ji Nuan and Mo Jingshen taken from that day. Although the account was taken down within five minutes, to prevent this gossip from spreading, Mo Jingshen, who was all the way in Hai City, had actually ordered someone to seal away all the internet services at T University for a day.

The photos were actually not q big deal. There were only shots of Ji Nuan alighting from Mo Jingshen’s car, and of the two of them dining in the restaurant near Mo Corporation’s office. There was nothing scandalous captured.

However, the content written beneath the photos was extremely unbearable to look at. Through groundless accusations and conjectures, the person who posted the photos used words like ‘prostitute,’ ‘seduce,’ ‘shameless,’ ‘third party,’ ‘dirty,’ ‘greedy for money,’ and many other adjectives to describe Ji Nuan.

After investigating the source of the photos, Feng Ling brought those photos and charged into their dorm room. Ling Feifei had only just entered. If she hadn’t moved away in time, her waist would have been broken by Feng Ling’s kick.

“Ah! What are you doing!?” Watching Feng Ling, who had directly slammed her leg out toward her, Ling Feifei was frightened into jumping away.

“What am I doing? You’ll find out soon.”

With a cold smile, Feng Ling grabbed hold of Ling Feifei’s hair. As Ling Feifei released a sharp cry of pain, she hauled her with force toward the side. She stretched her other hand out and with a single tug, she removed Ling Feifei’s bedsheets. All of the things on her bed slipped off onto the ground.

“Ah—”

Ji Nuan had only just entered the room to hear an incessant, blood-curling shriek. The moment she raised her eyes, she saw the following scene:

Feng Ling’s expression was cold as she stepped on Ling Feifei’s things on the ground. She tossed through her phone and her skincare products and finally found an SD card hidden under Ling Feifei’s pillow. She picked up the SD card and pushed Ling Feifei harshly against the corner of the room.
