MY MASTER'S KISS, VOLUME 2 - Season 6 Episode 5

Mo Jingshen lowered his head to scan the wound on Ji Nuan’s neck and noticed that she was barefooted against the ice-cold ground. His mild voice carried a few hints of unhappiness. “You’re not wearing any shoes? Are you trying to make your body even weaker against the cold?”

Ji Nuan eyed her own feet. Under the man’s gaze, she could not help but curl her toes inwards.

It wasn’t that she didn’t wear any. Earlier, it had been too difficult to walk with Mo Peilin stepping on her shoes, so she decided to leave then by the staircase.

She then heard the man speak with a cold voice, as though holding in a smile: “On the second floor, there is a fire escape path through the backdoor. I only told Mo Jiaxue one sentence. If she dares to take one step into my bedroom tonight, I’m afraid that from now on, the great Hai City won’t have any space for the mother and daughter pair.”

His words were directed at Mo Peilin.

Ji Nuan immediately raised her head to watch Mo Peilin, who had turned pale in an instant.

“You…” Mo Peilin’s gaze was flustered. It was true that there was more than one door with access to this villa. Earlier, she had guarded the main entrance, thinking it would be fine to keep away the people from there, but had neglected to consider if Mo Jiaxue would escape from the back.

“Although your daughter doesn’t have many opinions, she understands what’s at stake much better than you. Rather than bringing that bowl through my door and inciting my ire, at the very least, she knows when to back down.” Mo Jingshen’s tone was extremely indifferent.

Mo Peilin met the cold, thin smile in his gaze. Although she wanted to speak, she could not.

This wouldn’t do, she had to look for Jiaxue for a clear answer!

Before escaping, she abruptly tossed a mocking smile at Ji Nuan: “Haven’t the both of you divorced already?”

As Ji Nuan’s expression turned stiff, Mo Peilin approached the backdoor with quick steps. She pushed open the door to see smashed remnants of the glass bowl on the floor, accompanied by pieces of white fungus. She was instantly angered into trembling.

That damn brat!

The moment Mo Peilin left, Ji Nuan immediately began struggling out of Mo Jingshen’s arms.

The man lowered his eyes to glance at her expression. He did not say anything as he directly lifted her into his arms and brought her through the doors. With a ‘peng’ sound, the door was closed once more.

The instant she was brought into the room, the familiar environment left Ji Nuan’s body covered in goosebumps.

This was not only Mo Jingshen’s room but the room they once returned to three years ago when they were still in love.

The past was vivid in her mind. She pushed him away with force but was carried onto his bed. The moment her body came into contact with the sheets, she felt like jumping off of it.

“Don’t move.” Mo Jingshen took another glance at her neck and picked up his phone while asking heavily and coldly: “Was it scratched by her nails?”

Ji Nuan did not answer. She raised her hand to touch the aching area, but before she could, her wrist was abruptly caught by the man’s hand.

It wasn’t clear who he had called. Before the call went through, he spoke: “Don’t touch it. We’ll disinfect it later.”

Ji Nuan was about to shove his hand aside when she heard the man speaking into the phone: “Bring the medicine box over.”

He then tossed the phone aside and glanced at the way Ji Nuan had subconsciously curled her toes in her tensed state. He watched her with deep eyes for a while, and seeing the way she kept avoiding his gaze coldly, he couldn’t help a chuckle.

Hearing the man’s laughter, Ji Nuan swerved her head back to glare at him: “What are you laughing at?”

“It’s so late, yet you didn’t sleep. You ran all the way to my place, barefooted. You were worried about me, en?”

Ji Nuan’s expression turned colder: “Don’t flatter yourself. I coincidentally heard the conversation between the mother and daughter pair and realized that they were conspiring a scheme. This is the Mo family. If that sort of despicable, disgusting, and shady business really happened here, it might drive Grandfather Mo ill the very next day. You can consider my mind partially mad to interfere in this sort of idle matter.”

“Is that so?” The man was still softly chuckling.

Ji Nuan originally did not plan on interfering with his ‘good matter.’ However, when she saw the small silver bag in Mo Peilin’s hands, she felt that they were too despicable and charged in. By now, she had already begun to regret, but expressing it would only make her seem as though she was sulking. Even if she tried to explain, it would only worsen matters. No words would be of any use now.

She was very vexed at her own impulsiveness.

In the past three years, had she somehow managed to forget Mo Jingshen’s character?

How could he possibly fall for such a scheme?

However, when Uncle Ou told her about this, the image of Elder Mo breaking his walking stick against Mo Jingshen’s back had strangely flashed through her mind. It made it impossible for her to sleep in peace.

In any case, she had truly been too impulsive tonight.

Ji Nuan’s heart was vexed.

The helper came quickly. In less than three to four minutes, she brought the Mo family’s medicine box over.

Mo Jingshen went to the door to receive the medicine box. Whenever Ji Nuan attempted to climb off the bed, the man would toss the two threatening words over: “Don’t move.”

At this moment, he was retrieving the medicine from the box. His expression was unfazed as he maintained an unhurried pace. He was calm and profound, and difficult to comprehend.

Finally, as he brought the medicine over, Ji Nuan watched him warily with a stony expression. He indicated for her to lift her chin. Ji Nuan glanced at the tightly shut doors and hesitated for a moment before slowly raising her head. As the disinfectant came into contact with her skin, she trembled slightly from the pain but did not make any sound. She shifted her face away and shut her eyes to keep from looking at the man helping her.

Mo Jingshen glanced at her tolerating expression. He did not say anything but lightened his movements on her skin. As he applied the medication, he realized that this was perhaps not a nail scratch wound. He recalled the diamond ring Mo Peilin typically liked to wear and understood the cause of this wound.

“If you hadn’t injured yourself, perhaps I could be grateful for your heroic action. Unfortunately, despite your wealth of courage, you failed even to protect yourself well.” The man gave her the assessment in a somewhat ridiculing manner.

Ji Nuan: “…”

She was still vexed by her choice in coming today. By now, she had built up quite some temper and was holding it in. When she heard those words, she immediately tried to stand up and push him away. Who would have thought the man would abruptly touch her ear. The pain and indescribable sensitivity strangely caused her to release a small cry. Earlier, when Mo Peilin had grabbed her hair, her nails had also touched her ear. Although it didn’t cause a big wound, it had likely left a scratch.

“What are you crying out for?” The man applied the medicine onto the scratch on her ear. His tone did not reveal any emotions as he mildly stated: “When Mo Jiaxue opened the door, I inhaled some of the scent on her body. Cry out again if you dare. See if I’ll be able to restrain myself.”

Ji Nuan: “…”

She sensed that the drug was likely still in effect. The instant Mo Jingshen moved his hand back, she stood up abruptly to run away. However, the man’s arm easily wrapped around her and caught her. Before she knew it, she had fallen back on the bed.
