âNo, sheâs not a moron. She has been good at pretending dumb since her childhood. Although she looks pure and innocent, she is actually very sophisticated and cunny,â Yiyi said and glanced at Ji Nuanâs clothes.
âNo matter how sad your marriage is, you still have to move on, donât you? Fortunately, youâre still young and pretty, if you really canât make peace with your husband, I can introduce you to some rich men, but they are mostly old and married and have had kids. They just like having fun and can pay you good money if you sleep with them. Do you wanna see them?â
Ji Nuan seemed not to hear her but just raised her hand to her forehead.
Seeing her ignored her, Yiyi felt as if she had just punched a pile of cotton. She remembered that although Ji Nuan looked quiet and gentle, she was actually a vixen. Otherwise, she wouldnât have been famous for her bad temper.
And Ji Nuan was very sharp-tongued.
But why did she gave this look? Yiyi felt confused and also angry for being ignored.
At this time, the two female customers came to Yiyi. âCousin, weâve ordered the cake for you. Do you need us to buy anything else for you?â
âNo, thanks. You guys go back. Oh, by the way, call my husband over,â Yiyi said in a sweet voice.
The two women nodded and left.
Ji Nuan also wanted to go, but Yiyi took her arm, pretended to chat with her, and didnât let her go. Just when Ji Nuan became impatient, a tall man came in. He had dark hair, dark eyes, and fashionable whiskers and looked caucasian. This man was an Argentinian.
âHoney~â When Yiyi saw this man, she immediately released Ji Nuanâs hand, ran to the man at the door, and hugged him. Then she turned around and pointed to Ji Nuan. âLet me introduce you. She is Ji Nuan, a playmate of when I was in Hai City. We grew up together.â
The man looked at Ji Nuan indifferently and hugged Yiyi into his arms. âHoney, I thought you wanted me to take the cake home for you. Why did you bother to introduce this woman to me? She is not important, isnât she? As for the cake, you can have the clerk of the cake shop deliver it. Are we done here? Letâs go back.â
âOk! Just a minute. Let me tell them something,â Yiyi said sweetly and turned to say something to the shop assistant.
The shop assistant nodded and then said harshly to Ji Nuan whose head was still aching. âDonât get in the way here. We need to get the cake out of the way. Donât delay our business. If Miss Yiyiâs cake canât be delivered on time, youâll have to compensate us for our loss!â
Ji Nuan felt these people were really strange. They spoke strange words. Although she didnât understand what they were talking about, for some reason, she felt uncomfortable hearing their words.
She turned her eyes outdoor. When she saw the familiar figure, she felt much better. She wanted to smile at him, but she couldnât and she forced a smile.
Yiyi wasnât looking at Ji Nuan, so she didnât notice Ji Nuanâs expression.
They were not enemies. She just wanted to bully Ji Nuan and show off to her how good a husband she had. After all, when she was little, her family was not as rich as the Ji family. Although she was on good terms with Ji Mengran, she still felt inferior to the Jis. Now, on this island and after so many years, she finally won a round over Ji Nuan and got rid of her childhood psychological shadow, so she felt really good!
âHoney, letâs go.â Finishing showing off, Yiyi took the manâs arm and was about to leave.
When they turned around, however, Yiyiâs husband paused and looked at the man who seemed to be standing outside the door. He looked at him for a few seconds to make sure he was really that man and his expression immediately changed. âCEO Mo?â
Hearing his word, Yiyi paused and soon figured out who this man was.
Her husband was the person in charge of this island on behalf of the Argentinian party, but the real owner of this island was the boss of Shine Group, CEO Mo. Since her husband called him in such a respectful way, this man must be Mo Jingshen, CEO Mo.
Yiyi hurriedly gave him a polite smile. âHello, CEO Mo.â
Mo Jingshen remained deadpan and stood with his back to the crowd in the street. There seemed to be an icy aura around him and his frosty eyes fell on them.
Yiyi was a bit frightened by his look and looked at her husband nervously.
Her husband was also wondering what had happened. Mo Jingshen turned his eyes from them to Ji Nuan. âWhich cake do you like?â
Ji Nuan pursed her lips and didnât speak. She knew she was ill and was a bit dumb now and she didnât want to cause any trouble to Shenshen, so she just quietly shook her head and remained silent.
Hearing Mo Jingshen speaking so patiently to Ji Nuan, not only the clerks of the cake shop but also Yiyi and her husband froze.
The air in the whole bakery seemed to freeze in an instant...
âCEO Mo, you...,â Yiyiâs husband said carefully and tentatively.
Before Yiyi figured out what had happened, Mo Jingshen had entered the cake shop without even looking at them. When he walked past her, Yiyi couldnât help but tremble at his freezing aura. She looked at her husband nervously and asked in a small voice, âWhat happened? Why is CEO Mo here?â
Most importantly, why did he seem to be very familiar with Ji Nuan?
A womanâs sixth sense instantly gave her a very bad hunch. Were they...
Mo Jingshen walked up to Ji Nuan. Seeing that her aggrieved yet restrained look, he stroked her hair to comfort her. âI just went to line up for a cup of milk tea for you, and then I couldnât see you. Which cake do you like, en?â
Ji Nuan lifted her finger and pointed to the nine-tiered blue cake behind her. âI just thought the cake looked nice and came in to have a look, but they said it was expensive and I couldnât afford it.â
âReally?â Mo Jingshen looked coldly at the shop assistant and there was an icy smile hovering on his lips.
