Chapter 613: What on Earth is the Relationship Between You and CEO Mo?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ji Nuan paused and looked at the food in Xiao Ba’s hand. “Mo Jingshen?”

“Yes, he had his assistant called Xiao Hu send the breakfast here, who said the breakfast was personally ordered by CEO Mo and that CEO Mo told you not to leave until after breakfast and not to go hungry to make time.”

Ji Nuan took a look at the breakfast and said indifferently, “Which one would you like?”

“Any will do. These are obviously your favorite food. When you were in the UK, you couldn’t get enough of these Chinese breakfasts, but you couldn’t find genuinely Chinese food. The Chinese food cooked by foreigners is terrible. Wow, CEO Mo knows all your favorite foods for the morning and bought them all!” Xiao Ba said, looking at Ji Nuan with sparkling eyes. “In fact, there is nothing urgent in Hai City. Would you like to stay in Beijing for a few more days? CEO Mo really cares about you...”

“Aren’t the tickets already booked?”

“...Tickets are refundable.”

“No, let’s just go back. I’ve got something urgent to check.”

“OK.” Xiao Ba handed her the breakfast. “Shall we leave after breakfast? Don’t waste CEO Mo’s kindness.”

Ji Nuan took a look at the breakfast again and turned into Xiao Ba’s room, where she intended to finish the breakfast with her.

Xiao Ba eagerly opened the box of small wontons, handed her the cutlery, and mumbled as she ate her toast and drank the milk, “Boss, I saw CEO Mo last night when he walked out of your room.”

Ji Nuan paused, without speaking, lowered her head, and ate a small wonton.

“Then when I went into your room again, I saw your lips a bit swollen...” Xiao Ba said, shrinking her neck as if she were afraid Ji Nuan would hit her, but the latter was still eating quietly and ignoring her.

Xiao Ba looked at her again. Then she could not help it, put down the food she was holding, and whispered, “I really don’t want to be a gossip, but you and Mr. Mo were on a business trip together, and then he was still in your room so late at night. Although he left in the end, obviously the relationship between you two is not as simple as you described that you two are just strangers after divorce. CEO Mo is really nice to you. Although I don’t understand why he chose to divorce you back then.”

After a pause, Xiao Ba went on. “So, Boss, what on earth the relationship between you and CEO Mo is?”

Ji Nuan blew the hot soup in her bowl, took a sip of the wonton soup, and spoke slowly, “Up to now, I’m not sure yet what our relationship is. Perhaps I’ll find it out when I return to Hai City and make investigations.”

Xiao Ba was puzzled, but since Ji Nuan didn’t want to talk about this topic at all, she could only continue to munch on toast.

...

At two o ‘clock in the afternoon, Ji Nuan and Xiao Ba arrived at Hai City.

After returning to Hai City, they went straight to the company. Without stopping, Ji Nuan cleared the backlog and worked through the night until the next morning.

Xiao Ba had long been used to Ji Nuan’s way of working. Every time she came back from a business trip, she would deal with the backlog first, and would not rest until the jobs were all finished.

The next morning, Ji Nuan took a short break in the office with her eyes closed, and Xiao Ba had been working with her since last night.

In the afternoon, Xiao Ba pushed the door, only to see Ji Nuan still taking a nap on a chair behind her desk. Xiao Ba said nothing but brought in her oversized suitcase, opened it, and helped her sort her suitcase and took out some documents that were supposed to be put in the office.

She opened the suitcase to check it out and was surprised to see a scroll in the suitcase. Since Ji Nuan put the painting carefully in her suitcase and took it all the way to Hai City, it must be some expensive famous painting. She dared not to touch it and just took the documents.

“Bring me that painting.” Suddenly, Ji Nuan said quietly, sitting behind the desk with her eyes closed.

Xiao Ba turned to look at Ji Nuan who hadn’t opened her eyes. Obviously she had woken up as soon as she entered.

She carefully took the painting and put it on the table. Ji Nuan opened her eyes, took a look at it, and asked, “Is there any other job to be handled?”

“No. Recently, the projects of the company are going on in an orderly way. There is nothing to worry about, and as you travel frequently, the vice president has taken over a lot of your jobs. There are just some documents that you need to sign and check. Now you’ve signed them, there isn’t any job.” Xiao Ba continued to help her with her suitcase, saying, “Actually, Boss, since you’re not busy recently, why don’t you have a vacation for one or half a month? The new projects you signed in Beijing have been assigned to different departments and they can handle it. You don’t have to do all the jobs yourself.”

Ji Nuan did not reply.

She really hadn’t had a vacation in a long time.

Ji Nuan was still considering when to go back to the Ji family and put this painting back to Ji Hongwen’s study. Perhaps there was some ‘telepathy’ between her and Ji Hongwen. Before she left the company, Ji Hongwen called her, saying that he knew she had come back from Beijing and asking her to come back to the Ji family to have dinner with him. He had asked Auntie Qin to make her favorite dishes.

No time like the present. Ji Nuan agreed.

At 5:00 pm, Ji Nuan drove to the Ji family. Over the years, she did not contact the Ji family much. After returning to China, she only came back occasionally to have dinner with her father. Now she had no intention to ask who her biological father was and didn’t care about it anymore.

Seeing her come in with a scroll, Ji Hongwen took a look at the scroll in her hand. “What is it? It’s not a festival today. Why did you bring me a painting? Where did you get this painting? Do you want to ask me about my opinion on this painting?”

“I saw this painting in an auction in Beijing. I thought you must like it, so I took it for you.” Ji Nuan said briefly and wasn’t in a hurry to open the scroll. “I’ll hang the picture in the study after dinner. Then you’ll see.”

Ji Hongwen looked at her meaningful look and then at the scroll in her hand for quite a while. He pondered and, without any other words, ordered the servants to prepare the dinner.

“Dad, I know you’re not a sociable person, you have Mengran and I accompany you at home before. Now I’m too busy with my word and Mengran doesn’t come back much. I think you should look for a wife,” Ji Nuan said as she put food into Ji Hongwen’s bowl with her chopsticks.
