When she heard Auntie Chen calling for her, Ji Nuan finally got up and left the room.

“I have to head to Hai City University to cook for my youngest son in the afternoon. I’ll come to visit again tomorrow. Please rest well in the time being. Mr. Mo mentioned that you cannot move about too much right now, so please stay obediently and don’t always be in such a rush to leave. I’ll come and make some good food for you tomorrow.” Auntie Chen tugged on Ji Nuan’s hands, instructing her while speaking, “What would you like to eat? Give me a call after you decide, and I’ll bring the ingredients here tomorrow.”

Ji Nuan nodded. “I’m fine with anything. There’s no need to trouble yourself so much, nor is there any need to do so much work. More importantly, you have to take care of your own health.”

Auntie Chen smiled again and said a few warm words before leaving.

Ji Nuan poured herself a glass of water in the kitchen and was about to return to the bedroom when she heard a knock against the door.

She faltered. Could it be that Auntie Chen had left something behind?

Ji Nuan approached the door quickly, holding the glass with one hand and swinging the door open with the other.

The moment the door was opened, she saw it was actually Qin Siting, who had removed his white doctor’s coat and was dressed in a white dress shirt and a pair of black pants. She stared blankly at him for a moment. On the other hand, Qin Siting, who stood outside the door, had immediately taken a large step back at the sight of Ji Nuan. He raised his eyes to the door number, thinking he had seen wrongly, before shifting his gaze back down onto Ji Nuan’s face.

Qin Siting: “??????”

Why was Ji Nuan here?

This was fucking Ao Lan International, ah!

At this moment, the door to the study opened, and Mo Jingshen stepped out. Before Ji Nuan could say a single word to Qin Siting, Mo Jingshen reached his long arms out and received the two bottles of good wine Qin Siting had brought. Then, with a ‘peng’ sound, the door was shut.

Ji Nuan stood in front of the door: “…this, what’s going on? Wasn’t that Doctor Qin?”

Mo Jingshen’s expression was cold: “You saw wrongly. That was the wine delivery man.”

Qin Siting, who stood outside the door: “?????”

“…But didn’t you mention that Doctor Qin would come today? The person earlier was clearly him…”

“It wasn’t. Is Qin Siting supposed to look that ugly?”

Ji Nuan: “…”

Qin Siting, who was still standing outside the door and listening to their conversation: “?????!”

Ji Nuan took another look at the bottles of wine in Mo Jingshen’s hands and was dazed for a moment. She subconsciously turned to look at the living room.

Three years ago, she had knocked into the wine cabinet and damaged all of the luxury wine in there. At the time, she also drank quite some alcohol.

Afterward, for the past few years, Mo Jingshen actually did not place a single bottle of wine in Ao Lan International. Even the wine cabinet was taken away and replaced by a bookshelf.

Mo Jingshen’s phone rang almost at the same time. Without needing to guess, it was clear a call from Qin Siting, whose expression was now as dark as the bottom of a pot.

He took a glance at his phone and switched it to silent mode.

Ji Nuan was still staring at the bookshelf in a daze. She turned back to see that the charismatic and tall man had thrown his phone onto the couch and was meeting her gaze.

She could tell that he really did not… plan on allowing Qin Siting in.

“Doctor Qin rarely has free time to come here. He must have reasons to visit, right?” Ji Nuan felt deeply guilty toward Qin Siting and felt that she needed to do something about this. Otherwise, it was really too much to keep the person locked outside the door!

Without glancing at her, he unhurriedly placed the wine down by the side. He then checked for the year it was produced before sparing some time to reply to her mildly: “What did I say earlier if you bring up a single word about him?”

Ji Nuan glared at him but felt that a man who had been starving for three years, every word he used was far too threatening!

She was so angry, ah!

Sensing that there were no more movements outside the door, Ji Nuan quickly walked back into the bedroom and brought her phone out from under the pillow to see that Qin Siting had sent her a message.

Qin Siting: “…”

Ji Nuan pursed her lips and quickly typed a reply: [I’m really sorry, Doctor Qin. Your suffering today was entirely unintentionally caused!]

Qin Siting: [???]

Ji Nuan did not dare to repeat the nonsense she had spouted to Mo Jingshen earlier to him. Faced with Qin Siting’s speechlessness and questioning replies, she could only cry on the inside as she replied: [There was some misunderstanding earlier…]

A few minutes later, Qin Siting had most likely gone downstairs. He sent her another message: [Why would you be at Ao Lan International?]

Ji Nuan’s heart was still overwhelmed with guilt from the accidental harm she had caused Qin Siting earlier. She did not look at his latest message carefully and directly replied: [I’m sorry, Doctor Qin T_T I’ll definitely apologize to you properly after I leave this place!]

Qin Siting: […]

These two crazies. This old man had specially brought two bottles of good wine over to witness Mo Jingshen’s crying scene, yet the moment he came, it was actually Ji Nuan who opened the door. As if this violent attack wasn’t sufficiently damaging enough, they actually said he was ugly?!

Fuck!

…

She ended up sleeping another night at Ao Lan International. Ji Nuan had planned to sneak into the study to see if the air-conditioning was truly broken. If it had really been damaged, why hadn’t Mo Jingshen hired anyone to fix it yet?

However, she was unsuccessful in finding any opportunities to sneak in. In the evening, Mo Jingshen entered the bedroom once more to sleep on the floor.

As she watched the man sleeping on the floor, Ji Nuan carefully pushed the phone under her pillow deeper into the crevice.

Thankfully, she had turned it off an hour ago.

The man’s eyes were shut, and his sleeping posture was proper, noble and graceful, as though he was laying on a limited-edition spring mattress. He did not speak up despite her careful action earlier. As Ji Nuan then carefully turned over under the blankets, the man’s lips silently curved into a smile.

The next morning, as Mo Jingshen did not have a morning meeting today, Auntie Chen came by early to make breakfast. As they were eating, someone came to knock on the door.

This knocking sound was far too abrupt, and it was rare that anyone would come to visit Ao Lan International. Ji Nuan found this strange and turned to see that Auntie Chen had already left to open the door. She remained sitting by the dining table and did not move.

However, moments after the door was opened, she vaguely heard Auntie Chen saying, “Oh, oh. Yes, yes, yes. Please wait for a moment.”

Auntie Chen quickly approached, saying, “Mr. Mo, there are two policemen outside. They seem to be SWAT team officers. They said they came to look for you.”

Hearing the words ‘SWAT team,’ before Mo Jingshen could reply, Ji Nuan had already quickly approached. She arrived by the door to see Yan Ge and another man dressed in their SWAT officer uniforms. She immediately exclaimed in surprise, “Yan Ge? Why are you guys here?”

Yan Ge was clearly startled that Ji Nuan was here. He stared at her in a daze before answering, “Sister Nuan? After your car was hijacked by those kidnappers, the police have been struggling to contact you guys. We were able to find this place after some further investigation and thought to come by and take down some statements, but why would you…”

Before Yan Ge could answer, Mo Jingshen’s tall and cold silhouette had already approached.

At the sight of Mo Jingshen, and upon recognizing that Ji Nuan appeared to be staying here for the past two days, Yan Ge’s eyes widened: “This… how exactly is he related to you, ah, Sister Nuan?”

Mo Jingshen stood by the door, expressionless: “The woman in front of you is my ex-wife.”
