Chapter 735: She Was Actually Pregnant With Twins!
Coincidentally, right after Ji Nuan spoke, it became midnight.
Thankfully, she had made it in time.
The man stood outside the bathroom door watching as she stepped out.
Ji Nuan did not have the courage to raise her head. After speaking once, she immediately looked down and stared at his slippers. She was nervous to the point where she could barely hear her own breathing. She then softly added: “Happy birthday, Mo Jingshen.”
“Those who don’t know would think that my slippers are named Mo Jingshen.” His eyes were smiling as he caressed her hair. He chuckled softly. “Look at me.”
Ji Nuan reached up and caught his hand. She looked up and glared at him. The bashfulness in her heart was really vexing her. She could not control herself as she brought his hand up and bit down on it to vent her nerves.
The man raised his brows and stared at her in response. Ji Nuan immediately released her grip but he did not move away. Instead, he directly lifted her up into a bridal carry. His expression was sincere as though he was preparing to open his present while he brought her into the bedroom.
Ji Nuan’s face was scarlet red the entire time.
There was completely no need for her to explain herself. They had been married for so long. With one glance, he was able to understand the goal behind her outfit, the thoughts she had about it, and just how bashful it made her.
It was slightly dark in the bedroom. Mo Jingshen sat down on the bedside and placed her on his lap. He held both her hands, wrapping them up and holding her gently in his palms.
The heat had only just begun to subside from Ji Nuan’s cheeks and she immediately began to feel flushed again.
She raised her head for a quick glance at him. She felt that perhaps her outfit made her seem too much like a kitten. In a surprising turn of events, the man did not transform into a beast. Instead, he was gentle and patient, as though he was trying to keep her in his sight until she melted.
Since her clothes were already changed, and the plan of gifting herself to him was already proceeding, it seemed like there was no point in feeling embarra.s.sed.
Ji Nuan closed her eyes and leaned close to peck the man’s lips.
Her action caused Mo Jingshen to smile. As Ji Nuan was moving back, he held the back of her head to keep her from moving. He gave her an intimate kiss.
“Did you manage to eat during your business meeting?” His lips moved against the corner of hers. His husky voice caused her heart to tremble. Despite all of this, he did not forget to worry about her.
Ji Nuan softly made an ‘en’ sound. “I ate.”
“Then, it’s my turn now.”
It took some time for her to react. By the time she fully processed his words, the man had ceased being gentle as he pushed her heavily down onto the bed—
…
When Ji Nuan learned that the floors above her apartment in Yuehu Bay actually belonged to Mo Jingshen, she was in fact unsurprised.
Perhaps she did not consider it in the beginning. However, afterward, she gradually began to feel that only this person had the ability to conceal himself from her while protecting her. Aspects of their lives were also strangely intertwined. The more she thought about it, the more she began to suspect Mo Jingshen. She simply did not dare to confirm her thoughts.
When Mo Jingshen and her were preparing to resume their vacation, the residential housekeeper at Yuehu Bay sent the clothes Ji Nuan needed over for her. Ji Nuan recognized her from the sixteenth-storey and the answer immediately came to her.
She once interrogated Mo Jingshen over this matter.
Yet, Boss Mo had been unruffled when he gave his answer: At the time, there had been far too many people chasing after her. If he hadn’t been despicable enough to cut off those people who had thoughts of mingling with her as neighbours, it was likely that before he could even make any moves, she would have been duped away by someone. It had been a once in a lifetime opportunity, there was no way he would have given it up.
Look, look, even Mo Jingshen himself was admitting that he was despicable.
Thankfully Ji Nuan had already guessed it; she had only been unable to confirm it. Now that she gave it a second thought, the obstacles Mr. Vinse faced when he had been trying to purchase an apartment at Yuehu Bay finally made sense.
Spit, spit, spit…
It was really hard to tell based on his looks. Mo Jingshen’s shamelessness seems to be even more serious than she had thought.
Wait, no, she had already seen an even more shameless side to him. What was there to be surprised by?
As they say, ‘all businessmen are evil.’ If Mo Jingshen wasn’t this shameless, and this despicable, how could he have become an existence that every bystander feared in the business world?
When Ji Nuan investigated her Yuehu Bay’s apartment, and also investigated the relations.h.i.+p between his apartments and her, she found that even before moving in, those floors of Yuehu Bay’s apartments had already been transferred to her name. This meant that the apartments worth several hundred million all belonged to her.
At the same time, Ji Nuan also checked all of the a.s.sets under her name. It was only then that she found out that, without any prior notice, the Ling Xiao Group had transferred part of their inheritance to her name. This included half of Xiao Zhenjun’s private a.s.sets.
Ji Nuan did not plan to accept it and had arranged for her lawyer to return all of the things that did not belong to her. However, before doing so, she still calculated all of the a.s.sets that were under her name. She then took a screenshot and sent it to Mo Jingshen.
Ji Nuan: [Right now, am I considered the richest Chinese woman in the world? When I add up the Ji family, the Xiao family and MN Group, it should be so, right?]
Yet, the reply Mo Jingshen gave her was: [Tomorrow, I’ll transfer everything under my name to you. You’ll be the richest Chinese in the world. There’s no need to add the word ‘woman.’]
Ji Nuan: […I don’t want it! I plan to quickly send the Xiao family back their things. I also don’t need the Ji family’s a.s.sets. My dad can still manage the company for at least twenty to thirty years. I don’t want to tie myself down with so much responsibility. One MN Group alone is sufficient to work me to the bone!]
What was the point in having the t.i.tle of the richest person in the world? The words, Mrs. Mo, already had more than enough power.
——
Ji Nuan’s vacation to London, Greece, Egypt, and many more had only just resumed. Yet, the moment they returned from Egypt, they had to abruptly pause their journey.
The reason was that recently she had been puking everywhere she went. She really could not hold on any further and was forcefully dragged to the hospital by Mo Jingshen. It turned out that she was pregnant for more than a month, and when they did an ultrasound, they found that there were two little things in her tummy.
It was no wonder that her morning sickness was that bad!
She was actually pregnant with twins!
Ji Nuan had been completely astonished when she saw the two little blurry figures on the ultrasound image.
On the other hand, Mo Jingshen’s smile had become a permanent fixture on his face.
That night, when they were in bed, Ji Nuan laid in Mo Jingshen’s embrace. For the entire day, she had frequently brought out the ultrasound images to confirm that she wasn’t dreaming. She was really pregnant with two babies.
Before she fell asleep, Mo Jingshen caressed her hair and spoke softly, “Everything that you’ve lost; they’ll all return to your side one day.”
That night, Ji Nuan dreamt that the little baby they had once lost actually did not leave them. Instead, he had been fearful that he would be lonely, and was especially clever to go looking for another little girl that looked just like him. They flew toward her together and as they approached her with their little heads, the big brother was running in front, while the little sister kept chasing him with her small feet…
