Because of Mo Jingshen's oppressive posture, Ji Nuan had to look up at him. Being so close to him, he could kiss her easily, so she froze there and didn't dare to move.
It was so close that she could feel the man's burning breath on her cheek.
Then she heard a low, clear click, which was the sound of the safety belt in front of her being buckled.
She drew back a little, leaned back in her seat, and kept her distance from him. It was not about compromise, but that he clearly did not intend to let her leave alone. No matter how hard she resisted, it would be useless and will end up the same.
He didn't do anything to her. He didn't get up until he saw her sitting down, and he closed the door.
Sitting in the car, Ji Nuan saw that her bag was still in his car. She remembered that when he took her out of the banquet hall, he took her bag with him. When she got off the car just now, she forgot to take her bag. If she had taken a taxi by herself, let alone the fare, she didn't even take her cell phone with her, so she couldn't go back.
With the thought that she almost escaped without money or a cell phone, Ji Nuan picked up the bag and put it on her lap to cover her thighs that could be barely covered by the shirt. If she sat there without a bag to cover her up, she would have exposed too many parts of her body.
Mo Jingshen opened the car door and, after getting into the car, caught a glimpse of Ji Nuan sitting next to him with a cold face."The clothes I bought for you are in the back seat. Will you change now or take them home?"
"I don't need to change in them now. I'll take them back. Thank you for buying me clothes, CEO Mo." Ji Nuan said flatly.
Without saying more, he drove the car away from the hospital.
After half an hour, she saw that he was driving in the direction of the apartment she was living in, so she said, "If it's convenient, please send me back to the company. I'm not going to live at home tonight."
"You're going back to work dressed like this?"
"It's so late. There won't be anyone in the company, and there are new clothes in the back. I'll put them over the shirt." Ji Nuan said emotionlessly, "It's so late. If I go home now, it's inconvenient for me to take a shower or do anything. There's an early meeting at seven tomorrow morning. I have to be there. You are also the president of a company, so you should know how important it is. I only have some cuts and bruises, and it would be too late if I stay at home."
With that, Ji Nuan said lightly, "Even if I go home in this state, I won't be able to go to the company before seven o 'clock tomorrow. I might as well go straight back to the company now. I have a break room in the office anyway. I can take a shower, change clothes, and have a good rest in the company. Then I won't have to get up early in the morning to get to the meeting. You know, it's not easy for me to ask for a leave and I don't want to be absent from an important meeting. What do you think, CEO Mo?"
He didn't say anything, but drove the car to another road, leading to the MN Group on the west side of the city.
When they arrived at the gate of the MN Group's office building, he saw that there were several floors in the office building with lights on, and security guards were guarding the door. The security situation was quite good. Mo Jingshen took the clothes from the back seat and handed them to her."Put them on before you go in."
Ji Nuan didn't answer, but picked a long, loose skirt and put it over. It wasn't until Mo Jingshen saw that the dress was down her knees that he opened the central lock in the car and allowed her to get out.
As Ji Nuan opened the door, she glanced back at him."Thank you, CEO Mo. Drive carefully at night. Don't get killed in another accident."
Mo Jingshen coldly glanced at her."I haven't seen you for years, and you're getting more sharp-tongued."
Ji Nuan gave him a brilliant smile, but it did not reach the eye."Isn't that how I used to be? Do you think my mask of tenderness and understanding hasn't come off?"
Then, without another word, she got out of the car and walked into the office with her bag, not looking back.
When she entered the company, the security guards were surprised that CEO Ji would come so late. Seeing the gauze on her arms and legs, two security guards hurried out to ask, "CEO Ji, are you OK? How did you get hurt?"
"I'm fine. I went to a party and fell down. I just have some cuts and bruises. It'll be all right in two days."I Nuan walked to the elevator without saying anything else.
"Then why do you still come to the company..."
"I was too lazy to go home. I'll sleep in the break room tonight." She thought before she got into the elevator."Get me takeout, noodles or rice noodles." The security guard nodded blankly. It wasn't until Ji Nuan got into the elevator and the door closed that the security guard hurried to order takeout.
When she reached the top floor of the building, Ji Nuan turned on the master control light of this floor, and the darkness immediately turned into brightness. As soon as she entered the office, she took off the slippers and threw her bag on the office's sofa. In her bare feet, she hurried into the break room, took off all her clothes, and carefully wiped all her body but the wounds with a towel. She washed her hair, made sure that she no longer smelled of wine and came out. Then she found a comfortable dress from the wardrobe and changed into it.
After she finished, the security guard brought her a bowl of beef noodles. Ji Nuan took it in and began to eat it happily as if nothing had happened today.
Then she heard her cell phone vibrating in the bag. She took out her cell phone and found there were a lot of missed calls, some of which were from Xiao Luye.
As soon as she picked up the call, a man's voice came from the phone."How are your wounds? Did you go to the hospital? What took you so long to answer the phone? If you hadn't picked up the call, I'm afraid I'll think you've been caught and locked up by your ex-husband."
Ji Nuan."... CEO Xiao, you overthink. There aren't many sick people in the world who like to lock up people like you!"
The man on the other side of the line coldly sneered."I didn't 'lock you up. ' I treat you with good food and drink. You didn't have to worry about anything and even had servants serving you. Even when you swam, there would be someone handing you a towel. You were better off than on vacation. Other people would beg for this treatment."
"Do I need to thank you for kidnapping me and giving me a week-long vacation?"
If it hadn't been for the fact that Xiao Luye hadn't done anything out of line back then, she wouldn't have talked with him so casually and would have stayed away from him.
