Chapter 712: Mo Jingshen’s Cold Smile Carried Poison
Mo Jingshen did not answer her. He expressionless s.h.i.+fted his brows, watching her sternly: “How does it feel to have your cake smashed?”
“…” Yiyi had a guilty conscience and did not dare to raise her head. She was at a complete loss for words and could only force herself to answer: “It-it’s all right. As long as CEO Mo is happy…”
Mo Jingshen chuckled softly: “I’m happy?”
“Yes… yes… CEO Mo, as long as you’re happy…” Yiyi nodded her head as she spoke incoherently.
“To make me happy, you’ll have to pay a certain price.”
Yiyi caught the cold mockery in Mo Jingshen’s icy voice and could not comprehend how she had managed to offend a G.o.d like him. She felt completely helpless.
Her heart was fl.u.s.tered; could it be that Ji Nuan was really his wife?
All of a sudden, Mo Jingshen pointed to the nearest seven-layered cake on display. He indicated for an employee to push the cake over to Yiyi.
Yiyi’s gaze stiffened as she turned toward Mo Jingshen.
“Smash it,” Mo Jingshen spoke coldly; his peaceful gaze did not contain any warmth whatsoever.
Yiyi s.h.i.+vered: “This… this…”
Mo Jingshen’s cold smile contained poison: “As long as I’m happy. Didn’t you say that?”
“But this…”
“Smash it!” Mo Jingshen did not give her the opportunity to speak further; his eyes were as sharp as knives.
Yiyi was dazed, but under his freezing gaze, she did not dare to dilly-dally. She reached out to pick up the heavy, seven-layer cake. Even though the movement caused her clothes to become stained with cream, she did not dare to say anything. After pausing for several seconds, she gritted her teeth and smashed the entire cake onto the floor under his gaze.
Two enormous cakes had been smashed. The ground was now covered in fresh cream and cake pieces. The sweet scent of fresh cream in the air did not cause one to feel happy; instead, they could only feel the smoke from the gun drawing closer.
The employees did not dare to say a single word. Yiyi’s husband was even more fearful. He did not dare to speak up for his wife.
The commotion in the shop caught the attention of the pa.s.sersby and a large crowd was beginning to form outside.
“Continue.”
Mo Jingshen’s voice was distinct and cold. He mildly glanced at the various large and small cakes left in the shop; most of them were pre-ordered and set to be collected by customers today. Others were samples of new cakes made a few days ago.
When the employees saw Mo Jingshen’s gaze, they immediately guessed his intention. However, no one dared to say anything, much less attempt to stop him.
Initially, the employees were clueless as to who CEO Mo was. However, when they saw the way their manager had fawned over him, they guessed that he was likely the owner of this island. They had heard that the owner had the surname ‘Mo.’ With little doubt, the so-called G.o.d was him.
Who dared to provoke such a powerful man, ah. To do so would be to express their desire to cease living in Argentina!
“CEO Mo, this… one should be enough… this…”
Mo Jingshen was apathetic to her words. He glanced at her indifferently: “Are you going to smash it, or should I call your husband to do it?”
Yiyi trembled from head to toe. Things wouldn’t be as simple if she implicated her husband. After all, Mo Jingshen was the owner of this island, and her husband was the person authorized by s.h.i.+ne Group to be in charge of the island. If they were to provoke this boss, her husband would likely… by then, the cost wouldn’t be as simple as a few cakes.
She rushed to pick up two other small cakes on display and ruthlessly smashed them onto the ground.
The crowd outside the shop slowly grew. All of them pointed at and criticized Yiyi who was smas.h.i.+ng the cakes. She and her husband had acted like tyrants for the past few years on this island, and there were many business people who were upset with them. Now that they saw her smas.h.i.+ng the cakes, they couldn’t help but whisper among themselves. They all thought she had gone insane and the crowd watching the show increased.
“Continue,” Mo Jingshen’s voice was still as distinct and cold.
As he spoke, he glanced at Ji Nuan who had kept her head lowered silently.
Yiyi’s eyes reddened but she did not dare to dilly-dally. She smashed the cakes one after another. The employees saw Mo Jingshen’s expression and were afraid of slighting him. They all took the initiative to move the cakes over for her to smash.
The fresh cream and cake pieces by Yiyi’s feet were piling up like a mountain. She appeared a sorry figure covered in cream, yet she turned to continue smas.h.i.+ng the other cakes.
By the time all of the cakes were smashed, the ground was completely covered in cream. With just one glance, it was clear that this mess wouldn’t be easy to clean up.
Yiyi thought that she would finally be able to breathe a sigh of relief when Mo Jingshen suddenly glanced coldly at the employees who were hiding by the side. His voice was ice-cold: “Bring all of your finished and unfinished products out from your kitchen.”
The employees were shocked and Yiyi was similarly in disbelief.
However, when they noticed Mo Jingshen’s gaze, they instinctively rushed to carry out his instructions.
The crowd outside the shop was completely blocking the door. Ji Nuan stood before Mo Jingshen to watch as this scene unfolded and strangely felt a lot of memories flash by her mind. She felt that this man had often stood up for her and was constantly protecting her.
She faltered and turned to glance at Yiyi’s pale complexion.
Ji Nuan actually could not understand much of the situation. However, she strangely felt extremely invigorated in her heart and was especially pleased. The upset feelings from earlier seemed to have completely disappeared.
She reached up and tugged on Mo Jingshen’s sleeve gently. She whispered: “Shenshen, I don’t want to stay here any longer.”
Coincidentally, the employees had returned with a lot more cakes from the kitchen. Yiyi’s expression worsened when she saw Ji Nuan’s dependant and spoiled appearance in front of Mo Jingshen. She then noticed the cakes that were being brought out and her complexion became completely white.
“Give it to her. Continue smas.h.i.+ng it.” Mo Jingshen brought Ji Nuan into his embrace with one arm and gently patted her back.
“CEO Mo, I… can I stop now? The ground is already covered…” Yiyi’s eyes were red as she pleaded for forgiveness.
“I thought you liked this cake shop a lot? Weren’t you very conceited earlier?” Mo Jingshen spoke coldly. “You’ve only smashed a few cakes and your heart has started aching?”
“No, CEO Mo, I, I…”
“I’ll give you a reminder; all of the cakes you smashed today will be billed to you.”
“…” Yiyi’s legs immediately weakened and she almost fell onto the ground. However, the ground was covered in fresh cream. She rushed to support herself against the table by the side and barely stood firm.
None of the cakes were cheap; even the smallest ones were worth three to four hundred dollars. After taking into account the large cakes and the unfinished products from the kitchen, she had a least smashed up to three million yuan.
