“Aren’t we headed to the evening party? What are you doing?” Ji Nuan’s body instantly went on alert. By the time she turned back fully, he had locked the spare bedroom door. She couldn’t help but say: “You… you’re not going to the party anymore?”

“I’m going to wear it for you to see.” The expensive tie was carelessly tossed onto the ground. He then unhurriedly began to unbutton his shirt.

“To save you from yearning for it everyday.”

Ji Nuan: “…”

It was true that it had crossed her mind. After all, Mo Jingshen’s outfits were typically quite ordinary. He was either dressed as a serious and strict CEO, or in a set of clean and comfortable homewear. It was rare for him to be styled intentionally. Even though it was for the photoshoot, his outfit had really been astonishing. At the time, she had been filled with regret at the thought that he would never wear such an outfit again.

To think that he had even noticed her regret.

She watched as the man’s fingers slowly moved down. From his collarbone, to his chest and his firm and thin waist. His beautiful silhouette and perfect figure was vaguely hidden by the white dress shirt.

Finally, the man placed the outfit on right before her eyes. The sight left Ji Nuan dazed.

If he had previously appeared breathtaking, right now, as Mo Jingshen wore the high-quality outfit, the man’s outstanding and uninhabited innate charisma was completely released.

Mo Jingshen saw that the little woman’s gaze was dazed and his lips curled slightly. “Do you like it that much?”

Ji Nuan nodded blankly.

It was likely because she had become more honest recently and no longer held onto her temper to say things that went against her feelings, but her obedient appearance was especially charming. Before she could speak up, the man lifted her into his embrace. She was still dressed in the gown she had just changed into. In order to look for the complementing shawl, she had run around in circles for a long time with the gown on. When the man placed her down on the soft, white bed, the train of her gown fell over her.

It was a white gown. The train consisted of layers of beautiful white chiffon fabric. The fabric swayed with her movement and spread across the sheets. Layers of white formed a beautiful pure, white visual.

His lips and hands were familiar with her body and he explored her with a well-practiced touch. Very quickly, she was left at his mercy.

Right before her rationality left her, she heard him whisper by her ear.

His voice was hoarse and his breathing was slightly hurried.

“There’s no need to look for that shawl anymore. Change into a new gown later.”

Ji Nuan: “…”

With the way things were unfolding, she would have to change to a new gown even if she didn’t want to…

——

“Wait… wait…” Ahe suddenly remembered that it was almost time for the evening party. She frantically tried to remind him.

“Why?” His hands gripped her disobedient waist.

Ji Nuan couldn’t resist a low cry. Her voice almost concealed his light sigh of satisfaction.

Just as Ji Nuan began to lose her awareness of time, Mo Jingshen’s phone rang.

Ji Nuan originally wanted to call him to stop. However, when she saw the man reach out for his phone, she instinctively felt that this wasn’t good.

“En. It’s me. Speak.” He placed his index finger against his lip and indicated for her to stay silent.

Ji Nuan did not expect him to do this. She quickly covered her own lips and barely managed to hold in her voice.

Mo Jingshen, are you three years old?!

“I have time now. Take your time to speak.” Although he was speaking to the phone, he kept exploring her body with his eyes. The unrestrained desire in his gaze was practically eating her alive.

Ji Nuan gritted her teeth to hold in her voice. The man’s palm brushed past her cheek as his long fingers moved along her lips to press into her mouth. As a result of his action, she couldn’t help but release a broken cry.

The voice from the other side of the phone was unclear, and an unprecedented anxiety provoked her senses.

Furthermore, the man’s playful and desire-filled gaze was exploring her body over and over again. It was a familiar scene on the bed, but with the lights turned on, her body began to tremble involuntarily.

Ji Nuan felt as if she was a young girl experiencing her first taste of the world; she was completely at a loss as to what to do.

At the same time, her inner desire and pleasure was surging up and drowning her alive.

On the man’s phone call, the serious report was still being given. However, she collapsed on the bed and was on the verge of tears. She turned her head to the side and bit down on one corner of the sheets. The voice she was restraining was completely ruined by the man.

“Mo Jing… shen…” She heard her own hoarse sob as she cried out his name.

She couldn’t hold on any longer.

——

By the time he finally hung up, Ji Nuan was utterly defeated. Her face was covered with her tears and her messy hair, and her lipstick had been smeared after she bit against her lip for too long. She appeared dishevelled and vulnerable, yet she was unbelievably seductive.

Ji Nuan had always known that the desire and vulnerability she subconsciously showed was the most effective drug against the man.

It had only taken him a moment of effort, but it felt as though she was submerged in his breath. His name was carved into her every cell, and the three words had sunk into her bone to reach the deepest part of her. It was a brand she could not remove.

——

And thus, instead of thirty minutes, they were late for the event by a full two hours.

——

The key point was that Ji Nuan was completely exhausted when the man picked her up from the bed. He gave her a shower and helped her to pick a suitable outfit. As they barely had anytime, Ji Nuan styled her hair simply. She saw that it looked quite good and was then brought to the event by Mo Jingshen.

When they arrived, a crowd of Shine Group’s people and partners rushed to greet them.

Ji Nuan had been tortured by Mo Jingshen, the beast in human clothes, to the point where she barely had any strength. In the beginning, she maintained a suitable smile but when the crowd dissipated, she immediately headed to a less crowded area to sit down. She was tired to the point where she did not wish to speak. If she wasn’t attending as MN Group’s representative, she would definitely be sleeping on the bed right now. There was no way she would attend. However, MN Group’s face was at stake. She had worked so hard to bring the company up, and it was a rare opportunity to participate in this event in Los Angeles. It wasn’t suitable for her to not attend.

But she was really, so! Tired! Ah!

Most importantly, not only was her shawl still missing, he had ruined her favourite gown!

Mo Jingshen, that beast!
