Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

The moment he saw the great Boss’s reaction, Shen Mu immediately lost all courage to speak. He hesitated for a moment before, asking, “This… should I leave it here, or return the package to its sender?”

Mo Jingshen looked at the two copies of the agreement in his hands and tossed the pen onto the table. “Put it down. Go out first.”

Shen Mu could only approach the table to leave the papers behind. Afterward, he did not dare to check on CEO Mo’s expression and quickly stepped out.

The office was empty, spacious, and quiet.

Mo Jingshen picked up the divorce agreement. Although it wasn’t super neat, Ji Nuan’s words were beautifully written. The way each word was slightly connected revealed her indifference. It could be seen that she did not hesitate for even a moment when she signed her name. Every word was distinct and coherent.

When Mo Jingshen received the divorce contract, Ji Nuan was already discharged.

That night, Mo Jingshen returned to the Yu Garden villa.

All of the helpers were around. Auntie Chen was also there. The only missing figure was Ji Nuan’s.

From 7:30 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., Ji Nuan did not return.

Although she had already agreed to the divorce, the contract clauses had been made by the company’s legal department last minute. Now that she had abruptly returned the sum of money Mo Corporation had previously invested in her studio, several clauses needed to be altered. Aside from that investment, the two billion USD he had previously initially invested in her studio was also meant to be hers. Furthermore, following his succession of Shine, several property companies under Hai City, Mo Corporation’s hold were supposed to be transferred to her name. It was likely that Ji Nuan had signed the contract without even looking at its contents.

Even though he was the one who had facilitated their divorce, he had to make sure she wouldn’t suffer any discomfort following their separation.

Auntie Chen urged him several times to return to his room to rest.

“Mr. Mo, when I accompanied Madam out of the hospital, she left us with instructions to pack her clothes into a suitcase. She said that she would send someone over in a few days to retrieve it.” Auntie Chen said with a sigh, “Madam also said that she likely won’t return to the Yu Garden again…”

Mo Jingshen appeared not to have heard anything. He sat in the living room on the first floor of the Yu Garden.

At midnight, at 1:00 a.m., his phone suddenly vibrated. It was a call from Ji Nuan.

Mo Jingshen had yet to sleep and was leaning against the sofa. He picked up his phone and answered.

Ji Nuan was most likely outdoors. At night, the wind in Hai City was strong. The sound of the wind could be heard through the phone, causing the cold to seep into one’s heart.

The night was chilly, and her voice was similarly lacking in warmth. She coldly and indifferently said, “Mo Jingshen, I won’t be returning to the Yu Garden anymore. There’s no need to wait up for me. Rest early.”

Mo Jingshen subconsciously sat up on the sofa, asking with a heavy voice, “Are you not returning tonight, or will you not be returning ever again?”

Ji Nuan chuckled. Her voice was soft and light. “I’ve even asked Auntie Chen to pack up my clothes. Isn’t the answer obvious? You know me very well. I don’t let go easily, but once I do, I won’t look back.”

Mo Jingshen was quiet for a moment.

He was unable to ask about her plans following the divorce. Before he could even unsheathe the heartless daggers or doting questions, she had already blocked his words with her clear, elaborate explanation.

Ji Nuan was indeed someone like this. When she held onto her dedication and determination, she had the courage to see a battle to its end regardless of the consequences.

But when she completely gave up, she had also learned the decisiveness he once had. She knew to strike first and leave in advance.

This was also good.

At the very least, he had managed to teach her some things.

Mo Jingshen was silent for a long moment. In the end, he only said, “That’s good.”

“I still have things to settle here. I won’t chat further with you. Mo Jingshen, let’s go our separate ways now.” As she spoke, Ji Nuan prepared to hang up the call.

Right before she hung up, Mo Jingshen abruptly said, “A portion of the divorce agreement needs to be amended. When you’re free, come by and sign a new copy before you talk about going on our separate ways.”

The woman’s voice on the other side of the call was as mild as ever: “I don’t need anything. I created so much trouble for you previously, now that it’s time for a farewell, I should return all of the things I owe you. I’ve already returned all of your investments. As for the rest, thank you for once protecting me from any possible repercussions in my work. In the future, I’ll be working hard on my own. Right now, time is as precious as money. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go and busy myself now.”

Mo Jingshen: “Your studio is already doing very well. There’s no need to work too hard.”

Ji Nuan did not speak. She was quiet for a moment.

He could hear her breathing, accompanied by the chilly wind. It was light and soft.

“Mo Jingshen, I know that you’re still you. You’ve always been you.”

From the start, she clearly understood that he had never changed. Even when he came to know of those difficult ten years for her, he never once left, nor did he die.

Mo Jingshen was silent for a moment before he lightly spoke the three words: “Is that so.”

Ji Nuan spoke in the soft tone she always used when she was by his side, “It’s late, I won’t disturb you any further. Goodbye.”

Mo Jingshen: “All right.”

The call was instantly hung up.

Everything returned to its silence.

The day after Ji Nuan had sent the divorce letter to Mo Jingshen, the Yu Garden was sealed. No one could enter, and all of the helpers were dismissed overnight.

Auntie Chen received a large sum of money. As an old helper from the Mo family, she was supposed to return directly to the Mo home. However, she felt too ashamed to meet Elder Mo and was fearful that he wouldn’t take the news of their divorce well. She truly did not dare to face him, and because Mr. Mo did not plan to let her go back to the Mo home, she decided to return to her hometown.

Right before leaving, Auntie Chen visited Mo Nuan Studio. At the time, Ji Nuan was having a meeting with the people on England’s side. After the meeting ended, she stepped out to see that Auntie Chen was waiting outside.

Ji Nuan personally received her, but Auntie Chen did not even sit down, nor did she drink the tea. She watched Ji Nuan, who was dressed in her professional workwear and had a rosy complexion; it appeared as though she was emotionally well. Auntie Chen watched her for a long moment before saying, “Mr. Mo has sealed the Yu Garden. No one is allowed to enter now.”

“I know, I heard.”

Auntie Chen originally thought she had only come to look at Ji Nuan. After all, once she returned to her hometown, there was a chance she would ever meet her again. However, upon seeing Ji Nuan’s composed expression, Auntie Chen’s eyes immediately turned red. “That night, after you called, Mr. Mo smashed his phone.”

Ji Nuan did not reply.

“None of us dared to leave our rooms, but none of us were able to sleep either. Mr. Mo smashed every visible item in the Yu Garden. The next day, he ordered us to clean up the mess on the floor. The entire Yu Garden has been emptied. There’s nothing left.”

Ji Nuan was expressionless. She softly blew at the tea in her cup and did not reply.

“Mrs. Mo…”

“Auntie Chen, in the future, there won’t be any more Mrs. Mo. You should call me Miss Ji.”
