Mo Jingshen’s voice was low and calm. “Secretary An was directly sent here by my father from America. Regardless of the reasons she was sent here, her work ethics and professionalism are all up to par.”

Ji Nuan calmly curved her lips, but her smile did not reach her eyes. “Grandfather Mo said that she was outstanding. It seems like it’s true since even you can’t pick out any flaws in her. Right now, should I feel some sense of danger?”

Mo Jingshen curved his fingers and gently knocked against her forehead. “The entire office is filled with the sour scent of your jealousy. Our only interaction here is restricted to work. Outside of the office, I won’t see her at all.”

Ji Nuan wanted to say that she was not narrow-minded, but after all, it was someone that his father sent here. The meaning was so clear that there was no way she could pretend that nothing had happened.

“I am not jealous, but Mr. Mo, I need to clarify things to you.” Ji Nuan’s tone was lukewarm, and her expression calm. “Since I’m Mrs. Mo, I won’t easily give up my spot to any other woman. I’m very aware, as Grandfather Mo has mentioned, the elders had originally planned to shove that one with the surname of An to you, but you had no interest. Since you weren’t interested, based on your habits, you most likely won’t develop any feelings for her in the next ten years.”

Mo Jingshen did not speak, quietly watching her.

However, it was not difficult to tell that because of her words, his mood was rather good.

“But even as I am clear about all these, after all, that Secretary An isn’t a secretary with pure intentions. She’ll be in your office every day, during work, during meetings, during business trips, and even during business parties. It’ll be unavoidable that you’ll have to interact. My heart will be uncomfortable, and with time, it might even have ridiculous notions. It will affect my emotions and my ability to be rational when it comes to my trust in you.”

Finishing her words, Ji Nuan directly turned around and headed out. “This is all I’m going to say. In the future, we won’t mention this issue anymore. I’m hungry. I’m going to go eat hot pot.”

Seeing Ji Nuan’s “great-aunt will leave these words here today,” appearance, Mo Jingshen lost his smile.

She really was good at leaving things behind.

Ji Nuan did not care if he had the time to accompany her. She was about to walk out of the office.

Suddenly, her hand was forcefully held back, and in a second, she was brought backward and almost fell into the man’s embrace. She unconsciously tried to stand firm, but Mo Jingshen pressed her into his chest, not leaving her with any space to move away.

The edge of his lips carried a hint of a smile. “Look at your half-angered state. Being rational above being willful is not a completely good thing. Why not just throw a good tantrum at me.”

“I don’t have a temper. Other people are so outstanding, how could I have a temper.” Ji Nuan moved her gaze away from him.

Mo Jingshen was unable to restrain a smile, rubbing her little face that had a mocking expression. “I don’t plan on keeping her for long.”

Ji Nuan finally glanced at him. “How long is that exactly?”

“Secretary An is viewed very well by the elders of the two families. My relationship with her cannot be ruined that openly. I have to take into account her relationship with the Mo family. Give me two weeks; I’ll definitely give you an answer you’ll be satisfied with, en?”

Ji Nuan was expressionless. “Your relationship with her? She likes you, doesn’t she? Why else would she be so obedient and return to the country the moment she was told. After all, Shine is the Mo family’s true business foundation. She’ll have better prospects there. Coming here only means that her target is you.”
