novelYou Teased Here and There in My Arms, Igniting My Body With Flames
| ← Ch.0655 | Ch.0657 → |
Ji Nuan sat up with some difficulties and picked up the pillow to smash at him once more: "Clinging onto you is one thing. You should also know that I wasn't rational at that point in time. Besides, couldn't you be gentler?"
Mo Jingshen bent down and leaned close to her. His voice became gentler and heavier with his one movement: "You used that insatiable appearance and kept burying yourself into my arms. Your legs constantly rubbing here and there on my body, yet you still expect me to be gentle?"
"..."
"If you were aware that my stamina was running out, you could have satisfied me on the surface. Was there a need to use all your might and be increasingly..." Ji Nuan raised her head to glare at him: "You know what I mean!"
Mo Jingshen asked unhurriedly: "How was I supposed to satisfy you on the surface?"
"You could have just held me, and coaxed me... if you had coaxed me to sleep, we would have rested much earlier..."
"After teasing here and there in my arms, and igniting my body with flames, you expect me to hold you and coax you to sleep?"
"..."
"I can't do it."
"..."
Ji Nuan rushed to stand up but the immediate, aching pain tugged on her nerves. Her expression twisted and she fell backward, sitting on the bed.
The man chuckled lowly: "Don't you remember how last night unfolded? I should really order someone to investigate which exact drug Ji Mengran had used. There were several occasions when I slowed down because my heart was aching for you, yet you were unforgiving and even bit down on me because I was going too gently and slowly. I wanted to let you off, but your ability to cling onto me is truly outstanding. Time after time, after I showered and decided to stop for the night, you would seduce me back to the bed. I'm afraid you're the only woman in the world who could accomplish this."
Ji Nuan: "..."
By now, she had regained her rationality. She reached for the blankets and wrapped it around herself, changing the topic: "Last night, that person, that Sheng Yihan, will he die?"
"Do you hope for him to survive?"
Ji Nuan's expression turned cold: "Even death won't be able to wipe his bad deeds away. But I don't wish to become a murderer. At the time, I had no choice but to smash the ashtray on him. He had also taken the drug last night. If I hadn't knocked him unconscious, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to control the situation."
Mo Jingshen watched her: "Regardless if he is dead or alive, the responsibility won't land on your shoulders."
Ji Nuan raised her head to watch him: "In the past, you mostly neglected the Sheng Group and didn't place much importance on them. Right now... what are you planning on doing?"
He smiled mildly."It's Monday today. I've placed aside the company's weekly senior management meeting to sleep with you. Are you sure the first thing you wish to do after waking up is to discuss that man who took a bite out of your neck last night?"
Ji Nuan found that his smile was slightly frightening and did not bring up Sheng Yihan again.
At this moment, she finally fully recognized that it was Monday evening.
Not only did Mo Jingshen have a senior management meeting that he normally wouldn't miss unless he was out on a business trip, but the MN Group group also had a routine management meeting every Monday. She was similarly absent.
Ji Nuan subconsciously rushed to look for her phone but recalled that during last night's evening party, when she was being brought away, the little purse she carried with her seemed to have fallen on the ground.
"My purse and my phone..."
"Shen Mu was in charge of clean up last night. If he found it in at the venue, he will deliver it over for you tonight."
Ji Nuan set her heart at ease but recalled a different issue. She abruptly spoke up: "Mo Jingshen, did you use any protective measure last night?"
Mo Jingshen instantly turned his cold eyes on her: "Mrs. Mo, what protective measures do you expect me to have taken?"
"... Please keep the words, Mrs. Mo, away. Even if the company is busy, I'll definitely make time to check with the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow. Otherwise, you might unfairly take advantage of me with words."
"Sure. So long as you wish to go, I can accompany you there anytime." The man bent down and leaned close to her: "As your husband, there may be some things we missed out on in between and some things we had no choice but to give up on in order to change the direction of your life. Those add up across a large span of time, but on legal terms, your identity as Mrs. Mo has never once changed. Not only do I have the privilege of being your husband, but I also have the responsiblity of performing as your husband. Mrs. Mo should also give me the identity of being a father soon. Besides, with the way you clung onto me last night, how could I possibly have any time to take any measures?"
As he spoke, his breath landed on Ji Nuan's skin, affecting her thoughts.
Ji Nuan moved unnaturally, shifting her face away: "Your phone has been ringing in the living room for quite some time. Aren't you going to go answer it? The Shine Group's CEO abruptly disappeared for the whole of Monday. There must be quite some issues waiting for you to handle. Also, ask Shen Mu to bring my purse over quickly. I'm afraid there should be a lot of calls waiting for me as well."
After speaking, she lifted the sheets over her head and shifted her head back to the pillow to lay down.
"Have a good rest. When you wake up later, take a bath to relax your body. I'll ask someone to send some dinner over before the sky darkens." The man stood up and left the bedroom.
Ji Nuan tugged the sheets down to watch his back view. When she clung onto him earlier, he had also appeared flustered from the impatience. However, as she watched him right now, she realized that from the moment she asked about protective measures, his entire being had turned cold. Was he angry?
The miscarriage she had three years ago in America did not leave any trauma behind. At the time, they had experienced a lot, and Su Xueyi had even pushed her out of the car on a highway. In that situation, there was no way the baby could be kept. Furthermore, Mo Jingshen had also nearly sacrificed his own life to protect her.
The marriage circumstance and emotions between them were yet to be confirmed. If she hadn't been drugged, she wouldn't cared much about protective measures either. She was simply asking about it, was there a reason to be so mad?
Ji Nuan turned over and covered the blanket over her eyes once more.
Hiding in the darkness under the sheets, she placed her hand over her forehead. Images of last night's intense activity on this bed replayed constantly in her mind. Her ears gradually turned warm.
——
In the living room, Mo Jingshen received the call from Shen Mu.
"CEO Mo, Sheng Yihan's life has been kept but he is still unconscious. That ashtray was very thick and heavy. Miss Ji must have used quite some force in order to protect herself, but she did not kill him. At the very least, we can ensure that this won't affect her emotions, " Shen Mu reported calmly."As for last night's incident, we've found sufficient evidence to directly ruin Sheng Group and Ji Mengran together."
Mo Jingshen spoke: "En, then let the lawyers proceed."
"This... although we are taking the legal route, everything took place secretly. We can find evidence for the illegal happenings on the surface, but the consequences would be too light. At most, we can only send them to prison for several years. It won't be sufficient to keep them locked away for life."
Mo Jingshen's tone was composed and light. With a few words, he placed a death sentence on Sheng Group and Ji Mengran: "Then let them bite the hook."
