Unless, in her previous life, they weren’t divorced at all.
Seeing Ji Nuan falling into a daze, Mr. Vinse frowned. “Have you ever seen a divorce certificate?”
Ji Nuan put her hand on her lap and, without speaking, looked up at him. “But I think Mo Jingshen is not a common person. With the Mo family’s power and Mo Jingshen’s ability, he can easily get the divorce procedures done as long as I signed the divorce agreement, can’t he?”
Mr. Vinse sneered. “Naive.”
Ji Nuan fell silent.
In the afternoon, she accompanied Mr. Vinse in the hospital and chatted with him for some time, and at sunset, when the doctor came in to take him to have a stomach check, Ji Nuan got up and left.
On the way back to the hotel, she took out her cell phone to check online whether it was necessary for both husband and wife to attend the divorce proceedings in person, and the answer was yes. Both husband and wife must be present in person at the same time, which was a statutory condition for handling divorce procedures.
When the taxi stopped in front of the hotel, the driver looked back at her, only to see that her eyes glazed over after she checked her phone and then she leaned against the seat with her eyes closed as if she were about to fall asleep. The driver stopped the car and woke her up. “Lady, we’ve arrived. Are you feeling sick? Shall I take you to the hospital?”
Ji Nuan immediately opened her eyes and didn’t look sleepy at all. “No, thanks.”
Then she paid the fare, opened the door, and got out of the car.
Before she went back to her room, she took out her cell phone and wanted to call Mo Jingshen to ask him, but thinking of a possibility and that she had told him that she didn’t want to have anything to do with him that day, she thought it was unnecessary to call him.
She should just finish the work here and get back to Hai City as soon as possible, and then she would find out the truth as long as she checked it in the Civil Affairs Bureau of Hai City.

When Ji Nuan woke up the next morning, she opened her phone, only to find she was bombarded with messages.

Xia Tian. [What happened?! (picture)]
Ji Nuan enlarged the picture that Xia Tian sent to her. This was a screenshot of a financial newspaper with a color photo on it. It was in Mr. Vinse’s ward in the hospital. She was feeding Mr. Vinse and both of them were smiling and looked quite close.
It seemed that the picture was taken by some medical staff member or someone pa.s.sing by through the transparent window on the door of the ward. She didn’t expect a person would know who they were, take a photo of them, and sell it to a newspaper.
The business circle was not as complicated as the entertainment circle, but some famous bigshots of the most outstanding figures of the industry were often interviewed by the media, and gradually gained popularity.
Besides, the real estate industry had attracted much attention in China, so many people had seen the names and photos of the heads of large domestic real estate companies like BGY.
The photo was t.i.tled “Forbes listed young female entrepreneur returned to China because she fell in love with the general manager of BGY Group!”
Seeing it, instead of replying to Xia Tian, Ji Nuan made a call and ordered her men to have this stupid news removed from the media.
MN Group may not be powerful enough to manipulate the media, but she was able to make this gossip news published in an insignificant financial media disappear. Financial media was not as popular as entertainment ones, so she could remove the news and photo before they were widely spread.
Using gentle methods and force, she finally made the financial media remove the report and made them agree to apologize publicly in tomorrow’s newspaper for the false report.
It was already afternoon. Today, Ji Nuan was going to an entertainment club to have dinner with some business partners. Inevitably, she would have some wine, so she arranged a car in advance to pick her up from the club when the dinner finished.
When she arrived at the club, she shook hands and exchanged pleasantries with the business partners. As they were old friends of a long cooperation, she felt at home tonight, but she knew her capacity for liquor and didn’t drink much. Many people asked her about the news, and Ji Nuan just smiled and explained that she just went to visit an old friend in the hospital, but a pa.s.serby secretly took a photo outside the ward and sold it to the media. And she explained that she had been single all these years and would let her friends know if she fell in love.
Hearing her explanation, the business partners believed her and didn’t ask her about the news anymore but began to talk about business.
It was already ten o ‘clock at night when the second half of the party started. It was raining hard outside, so the business partners suggested waiting until the rain stopped. They booked another large room in the club to play cards, sing Karaoke, and have a few drinks. Ji Nuan was already tipsy and was in a good mood because she had just got a very good project, so she went with them.
In the room, the business partners were playing cards. Ji Nuan had drunk a little too much this evening, and, with an opened beer in her hand, went to the corner of the penthouse box and looked at the semicircular French window. It was raining heavily. She held the beer in one hand, put the other on the window, and through the thick gla.s.s, overlooked the lights of the city.
But she was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery. All she could think about was what Mr. Vinse had said today about whether she was really divorced.
The more she thought about it, the more she drank, and the more sober she became.
The rain hadn’t stopped and had become even heavier when it was already twelve o ‘clock. The car she had booked had been parked outside for a long time. The driver had called her several times, but she had not answered. It was so noisy in the room that she didn’t even hear the calls and, besides, she was so drunk that she forgot about the driver coming to pick her up.
When Ji Nuan finally remembered it, it was already 12:30 at night. She took out her cell phone and called the driver as she waddled out.
She walked to the elevator door and looked at the door of the elevator in front of her squiffy-eyed. When the door opened, she was about to walk in but stopped when she suddenly caught glimpse of Mo Jingshen in the elevator—-
