MY MASTER'S KISS - Season 5 Episode 21

The cabin doors were shut for the international flight heading from London to Hai City. All of the passengers had finished boarding.

Outside the windows, the sunlight was too piercing. Ji Nuan put on her sunglasses and closed her eyes. She did not pay attention to any other passengers.

There were only two people in the first-class cabin today, and the other man only sat down after Ji Nuan had closed her eyes. His seat was initially arranged on the other side. However, when he carelessly caught sight of Ji Nuan, he requested for his seat to be changed to the one next to hers.

As they were the only ones in the first-class cabins, the flight attendant naturally did not reject his request.

The man sat down by Ji Nuan’s side and saw that the sunlight made her uncomfortable. He closed the small window.

Ji Nuan sensed that there were movements and opened her eyes, casually glancing toward her side. She was about to close her eyes once more when she abruptly paused. She plucked off her sunglasses and looked toward the man by her side.

“Hi.” The man greeted her.

Ji Nuan stared at him for a while before speaking up: “Shen Mu?”

Shen Mu smiled happily. He had to swallow down the words ‘Mrs. Mo,’ and after hesitating for a moment, he said, “Miss Ji, are you finally returning to the country?”

Ji Nuan did not expect that she would actually meet Shen Mu in such a place. However, she did not display much shock. She sized him up for a moment before answering, “That’s right. I’m heading back.”

“How coincidental. A few days ago, I headed to London for a work trip and am about to head home now. I never expected to see you here. I did hear that MN Group was about to move back to the country, but I never caught much of the details. Who would have thought that I actually heard right.”

Ji Nuan did not speak; this could be considered a silent agreement.

Shen Mu was typically a man of few words. Perhaps it was because it had been years since they last met, but he had the rare attitude of an old friend wanting to chat. “In the past few years, Miss Ji, you’ve shown up on the news quite a bit. This year, you were even ranked on Forbes’ Businesswomen’s list. It’s astounding that you’ve become so brilliant. Back when you worked in your property studio, many people looked down on you. Right now, you’re singlehandedly holding up the entire property industry. Your achievements are truly admirable. In the list of powerful individuals and companies this year, most of those mingling in the property industry are considered winners. I have to say, Miss Ji, you truly have amazing foresight…”

As the representative of young Chinese entrepreneurs, for the past two years, Ji Nuan’s name had become known worldwide. When several flight attendants caught wind of their conversation, they couldn’t help their eyes from shifting over.

On an international flight like this one, most of the flight attendants tended to be young men. They watched Ji Nuan but saw that she barely made any movements. It was as though she did not hear Shen Mu’s words. She sat there quietly to listen but did not respond or put on a polite smile. Although she was clearly a young lady, she appeared steady and peaceful. Her composure revealed a mature charm beyond her years.

Even Shen Mu discovered that Ji Nuan had truly changed a lot in the past few years. She now had a temperament that made her the center of attention.

Previously in Hai City, she was already outstanding in her looks. With her past few years of maturity and experience in the business world, she now appeared like a model young lady who was born to mix within the upper class.

In response to his words, Ji Nuan only lifted one corner of her lip. She then closed her eyes to rest. Intentional or not, she did not speak more to him, nor did she pay him any more attention.

On the other hand, Shen Mu could not help but give Ji Nuan frequent glances. Ji Nuan acted as though he was invisible and barely paid him any mind.

By the time their plane had approached China’s skies, Ji Nuan had yet to take the initiative to speak to Shen Mu even once.

Shen Mu felt slightly wronged. Back then, the one who had divorced her was CEO Mo and not him. Although he had always remained by CEO Mo’s side, Miss Ji’s attitude was truly too cold.

The flight attendant announced that they would land in Hai City in half an hour.

Shen Mu had returned to his original seat tactfully. However, after considering that they may never meet again after getting off, he moved back to the seat next to her.

“Is there a car picking you up after you alight? Do you need me to drive you back? My car is parked right at the airport.”

“I changed my flight last minute and didn’t inform anyone. There shouldn’t be anyone coming to pick me up,” Ji Nuan finally replied. She glanced at him. “Didn’t you follow Shine to America? Mo Corporation has already merged with Shine Group to become its Chinese regional subsidiary company. You’re no longer working in Hai City. Why would you have a car at the airport?”

“Miss Ji doesn’t know?” Shen Mu asked with a smile.

Ji Nuan indifferently glanced at him. “Know what?”

“It’s been four months since I returned with CEO Mo. All of Shine Group’s international, regional companies are currently very stable. After CEO Mo took over Shine, he filtered through most of the management personnel. Even the person-in-charge of Los Angeles’s headquarters right now went there with CEO Mo initially. They are all trustworthy right-hands and left-hands. There is no need for CEO Mo to worry at all. Now that China has become the focus of international economic growth and consumerism, Shine Group will return its focus back to this country for the next three years.”

Mo Jingshen had returned.

This information did not give rise to too many emotions. After a momentary effort, she easily suppressed the mild surprise. However, she truly did not expect that Mo Jingshen would return.

“I went to London last week for a last-minute business trip. My car is parked right at the airport. If there isn’t anyone picking you up, why don’t you come with me? We’re both headed back to Hai City’s city area. There isn’t anyone else taking my car, so it won’t be too inconvenient. It’s better for a beautiful young lady like you, who is clearly wealthy, to avoid taking a stranger’s car. Problems may easily arise…”

Shen Mu’s last words were faintly discernible to her ears. Ji Nuan glanced at him, smiled, and refused.

“It’s all right. Coincidentally, I’m meeting an old customer right after I get off. I’ll take his car back. I won’t disturb you.”

Shen Mu’s choked back his words. He considered for a moment, and still decided to speak up: “CEO Mo might visit the company. Don’t you wish to see him…”

However, at this moment, the flight began descending. The rumbling noises of the turbulence began, and the plane began announcing instructions in both English and Chinese. There was too much clamor, and he wasn’t sure if Ji Nuan had heard his words. Either way, she put on her sunglasses and did not reply.
