Chapter 645: He Was Actually Drugged…

“It’s so late. I just blacklisted you. How can you call me at such a time for such a trivial matter? Can’t you just let me sleep?” Ji Nuan complained.

The man said flatly. “It’s so late. I just refused to change my WeChat avatar. How can you blacklist me?”

Ji Nuan: “…”

“I’ve gotta go to bed. I’ll move you out of the blacklist after you change your avatar.” Without giving him any time to speak, Ji Nuan quickly hung up in case he would continue to say something that she couldn’t refute.

In Ao Lan International, the man leaned against the door frame, slightly narrowed his deep, dark, and placid eyes, and looked that phone screen that went dark.

——

The next morning, Ji Nuan got up, took a shower, and got out of the bathroom. She picked up her cell phone and found the screen frozen at the blacklist page. She clicked the blacklist, only to find Mo Jingshen’s avatar remained the same. She refreshed the page but it still remained the same.

He still didn’t change it.

That night, charity banquet.

It was an ordinary banquet, attended by celebrities of Hai City. After coming back to China, Ji Nuan had attended numerous social events and banquets, so she knew a lot of people here. Although the dirty water splashed on her had been washed clean, some people still gossiped behind her. Besides, it shocked many people that Ji Nuan was Mo Jingshen’s wife. Those men who tried to hit on her dared not approach her.

After all, Ji Nuan had been very famous in the Chinese business circle. Now knowing that the man behind her was Mo Jingshen, they dared not to mess around with her again.

The dinner party wasn’t over until 10:30 p.m.

It was already ten o ‘clock. She drank red wine in boredom and waited patiently for the dinner to be over. Although her pursuers dared not approach her tonight, there were still a few girls or ladies knowing that came by occasionally to talk to her, but they were obviously testing her, wearing a false smile on their face and asking her whether what CEO Mo said in the media the other day was true or not.

She was toasted. She had no more than two glasses of wine in all, and the wine in the glasses was only a little at the bottom. She took it courteously, clinked glasses with the other party, and exchanged pleasantries with him as she did at most social gatherings, although everyone was smiling at the banquet, nobody knew what others were actually thinking, and after a few words, the man who toasted her left.

At last, at half-past ten, the dinner was over as scheduled, and after the speeches of several leaders of the municipal government, there was thunderous applause. Ji Nuan played with a glass of wine that had just been brought in by the waiter. As the crowd moved out, she put the half-empty glass into the tray of a passing waiter and turned away.

However, she was about to walk out of the hotel when the hall suddenly darkened.

She was stunned for a few seconds, wondering whether it was a power failure or tripping. Fortunately, the dinner party had ended, and here was not far from the exit. Otherwise, nobody knew what would happen in the chaos.

Ji Nuan was about to follow the crowd out in the darkness with her dress in her hand. All around her were people hurrying forward because of the sudden darkness, and she didn’t notice that someone was approaching her.

With a bang, her purse, which matched her dress, fell to the ground with a slight thud…

…

In the room on the far right of the tenth floor of the hotel, Sheng Yihan stood under the showerhead in the bathroom. Warm water fell like a dense rain and the man’s tall and slender figure was surrounded by the dense white fog in the bathroom.

He closed his eyes. For some reason, he was a bit short of breath. He was also present at tonight’s charity banquet but left only an hour later because he was not feeling well. Learning that he was not feeling well, his secretary arranged a room for him in the hotel nearby.

At first, he just felt hot, but now as he washed with hot water, Sheng Yihan suddenly felt his body heating up and becoming intolerably hot.

Images of seeing Ji Nuan at the dinner party kept running through his mind.

Since he was expelled out of the Ji family, the only goal of his life was to get the Ji family in whatever measure. Although the Sheng family was strong enough and didn’t need to annex the Ji Corporation, he couldn’t let go of his resentment that was hidden in his heart since he was young. Something was your life-long obsession. Even if you didn’t need it, you must get it.

Although in the end, he gave up on Ji Nuan and chose to take Ji Mengran as his puppet.

Seeing Ji Mengran walk in the direction he had anticipated step by step, he didn’t need to do anything except for giving her a helping hand from time to time. After all, Ji Mengran was so stupid that she was completely capable of destroying the Ji Corporation alone.

However, Ji Mengran still failed in the end.

Sheng Yihan didn’t show up in the scandal matter, but he knew everything that had happened.

Why didn’t he show up?

Perhaps because Ji Mengran’s target was Ji Nuan, who was the only member of the Ji family that he loved but could never get.

Although it had been so many years, the resentment hadn’t gone, neither did the love.

He thought of Ji Nuan, whom he had seen tonight. She was wearing a light-colored shoulder dress with a very simple yet elegant design and was lightly made-up. The pretty face that had haunted his mind many years ago remained the same as if she hadn’t changed at all after all these years. She was still that her, except that she was more mature than before.

When he saw Ji Nuan hide from the crowd and drink quietly from her glass, for a moment, he wanted her to pass out drunk in the corner so that he could have a chance to carry her out, and then when she sleepily patted his face and asked him who he was, he wouldn’t tell her that he was her brother living under the same roof with her, but told her that he was Sheng Yihan.

As soon as this idea popped out in his mind, his lower part reacted. A strange disturbance in his body made him feel uneasy, and he withdrew his sight and went away.

Now when he was taking a shower in the room, he figured out why he reacted like that.

He was actually drugged.
