Chapter 639: Since You’ve Turned to Me for Help, You Should Completely Trust Me
Looking at his hand, Ji Nuan paused, went up the steps, hesitated, and took his sleeve.
She said, “Mo Jingshen, I’m here to ask for your help not to fall in love with you.”
The man smiled, took her hand and pulled her into his arms. Ji Nuan’s feet went numb after she sat there all night, so she stumbled and fell to his arms. At the moment when her face touched his chest, she heard the man whispered to her with a smile: “Is there any difference?”
If she hadn’t still loved him, how would she turn to him for help?
Ji Nuan didn’t speak. After all, she was here to ask for help and she had no reason to be so arrogant, but why did she have the feeling that this man had been waiting for her for long although he looked unconcerned about and uninterested in her matters.
The man led her out of the staircase and still held her hand. He took a look at the time. “You’ve been sitting in the staircase for so long. Aren’t you hungry? Go to my office and have breakfast.”
Ji Nuan didn’t speak and just let him lead her into his office.
The cleaner had left. Shen Mu thought that Mo Jingshen had found Ji Nuan after seeing him go to the staircase, so he went to his office. There was no one else in the office that was bright, spacious, and modernly-decorated and there was a faint, fresh smell in the office. The cleaner must have put a mildly aromatic disinfectant on the floor.
After Ji Nuan went in, he asked her to sit down, so she went to the sofa and sat down.
The man took a look at her and called his secretary to ask her to bring breakfast. Then he called Shen Mu, telling him to arrange for a press conference to be held at 10:00 am.
Hearing ‘press conference,’ Ji Nuan thought it was about some new project of Shine. She didn’t mind him being busy with his work. After all, it made no difference for her to stay in Yuehu Bay or here.
After breakfast, the man went out for a meeting, asking her to take a nap in his break room. Ji Nuan was sleepy indeed. After all, she sat in the staircase all night and didn’t sleep. And it wasn’t the first time she entered his break room. After the man left, she went into the break room.
Not knowing how long the meeting and press conference would take him, Ji Nuan sat on the bed and threw her bag and cell phone aside. She had kicked the habit of checking her cell phone before bed because of the personal abuse online on her in the last three days. She didn’t bother to read those malicious comments, laid down, and closed her eyes.
She soon fell asleep. Half an hour later, it was already 9:30 am and the press conference was still half an hour away when Mo Jingshen returned to the office.
The person in charge of a department store in Hai City entered the office together with him. The person held a suit of clothes specially selected for Ji Nuan and respectfully waited in the office.
When being woken up by Mo Jingshen, Ji Nuan was still sleepy-eyed. After all, she only slept for about one hour…
Sleepily, she heard the man said, “Go wash up and change. Go to the press conference with me.”
She sobered up. Looking at his gentle and patient face as he bent to wake her up, she asked after a long pause, “What press conference? Why am I going with you?”
Seeing her still a bit sleepy-eyed, Mo Jingshen sighed and kissed her on the lips. Kissed by him, Ji Nuan completely sobered up. She jumped up from the bed and quickly went to wash up.
She went out and saw the clothes specially delivered for her was a French brand suit that fitted perfectly, which was more suitable for the press conference than the black hoodie and jeans that she was wearing.
Ji Nuan didn’t ask much but she could guess that Mo Jingshen held the press conference because of the scandal. Not thinking much, she obediently changed the clothes.
When it was 10:00 am, Ji Nuan went into the hall of the press conference that was a very large multimedia hall on the fifth floor of the Shine Group where project and product launches of Shine were usually held.
When she walked in, she saw the seats were all full. From the cameras these people held and the logos on their microphones, she knew the major media of China were all present, including the authoritative ones that never reported gossips. Although there were many people in the room, no one dared to speak loudly and everyone was waiting patiently for the press conference to start. After all, here was the Shine Group.
So many media were attracted here in such a short time, which showed how hot Ji Nuan’s news was. As for the authoritative media that were present, they came here so quickly because of Mo Jingshen.
Ji Nuan stood backstage and looked at the media, only to find that she didn’t panic at all standing here and seeing so many people, although she hid from these people in Yuehu Bay for two days.
Why?
She turned and looked at the man in the black suit beside her. “Although I admit that you can save me some face if you stand up for me, aren’t you afraid that you will be in serious trouble after holding a press conference to take sides with me?”
The man looked at her face. “Are you afraid?”
“Of course not.”
The man chuckled. “Since you’ve turned to me for help, you should completely trust me.”
Ji Nuan certainly trusted him, but she didn’t want to expose that they used to be married. However, to her surprise, Mo Jingshen who had always been low profile would choose to hold a grand, formal press conference.
When she was about to go to the stage, Ji Nuan suddenly saw some people that she knew. For example, Ji Mengran was in the crowd, seemingly coming in with a media friend. Surely, it was impossible for her to get in unless someone purposely let her in.
Seeing Ji Mengran in the crowd, Ji Nuan narrowed her eyes and guessed that perhaps Mo Jingshen didn’t hold this press conference to explain for her or support her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t allow Ji Mengran to show up here.
Ji Mengran stared at the backstage in a distance. When Ji Nuan and Mo Jingshen appeared, JI Mengran raised her eyebrows. To her disappointment, Ji Nuan seemed to be in a good shape, not as decadent and dazed as she imagined at all. Seeing her stand beside Mo Jingshen, Ji Mengran gnashed her teeth in hatred.
