"At such a time, why would there be a car approaching?" Hope suddenly materialized in Elder Mo's eyes. He glanced outside and muttered, "Quickly go see! See if Jing Shen has returned!"

Ji Nuan was one step ahead of the elder, and before he had even spoken, she had already ran out…

"Aiya, Ji brat, why didn't you take an umbrella! Quick! Go bring one to her! Don't get soaked, ah!" The elder chased her with his walking stick but was unable to match her speed. He watched as Ji Nuan ran out of the doors without any care for the pouring rain outside the villa.

The helpers and the housekeeper rushed to chase her with their umbrellas. Ji Nuan could barely feel how cold and wet she was. Her gaze was fixed toward the headlights of that car as she ran toward it.

Yet, as she approached, she discovered it was not Mo Jingshen's car but a taxi.

Her footsteps came to a halt as she stood in the rain. Filtered through the rain, the lights on both sides of the Mo villa's road wavered.

When the door opened, the first thing she saw was the appearance of An Shuyan's silhouette. Ji Nuan's brows and eyes instantly turned cold.

An Shuyan alighted and approached with an umbrella. When she raised her eyes and saw Ji Nuan, her movements stopped as well. She turned her head and watched as the helpers and housekeeper brought their umbrellas above Ji Nuan's head. However, Ji Nuan was already thoroughly drenched.

An Shuyan walked toward Ji Nuan, and through the curtain of rain, she softly said, "Mrs. Mo, I'm really sorry."

Ji Nuan stood there and stared at An Shuyan who had come alone. From beginning to end, she did not catch a single glimpse of Mo Jingshen's silhouette.

Her expression was calm, yet it appeared as though she was silently suppressing waves of emotions. Her gaze was cold and her tone low and unhurried. "What did you do? Why do you need to apologize to me?"

An Shuyan lowered her eyes, gripping her umbrella. "The rain is so big. Let's go in first before we talk."

"That's right, Madam! Your body is completely drenched, let's return and change your clothes!" The helper carrying the umbrella for Ji Nuan reached out to tug her hand.

Ji Nuan silently stared at An Shuyan. She saw a flash of a particular emotion in her eyes, it was as though she suddenly understood everything. She did not speak any further and allowed the helper to tug her back into the villa.

The elder had just walked a few steps out with a helper holding an umbrella for him. When he saw that they were about to enter, he quickly ordered the helpers to open both doors so they could enter rapidly.

The helpers' hands were quick as they brought two, thick towels over Ji Nuan's body. From beginning to end, An Shuyan carried an umbrella and was not drenched. As she stepped through the door, she placed the umbrella down.

"Shu Yan? Why is it you? This… what on earth happened today?" Elder Mo saw An Shuyan was impeccably dressed. Unlike what Mo Shaoze had said, she was not locked in a room.

"Grandfather Mo, I'm sorry. I should have come earlier, but because people were watching me, I was unable to avoid them and could only rush over so late." An Shuyan said apologetically to Elder Mo: "I can explain tonight's situation to the both of you. But right now, can you let me speak alone to Mrs. Mo first?"

Elder Mo raised his brows, turning to look toward Ji Nuan whose face was still dripping wet.

Ji Nuan calmly looked toward An Shuyan. Her tone was slightly cold, "What do you want to say?"

An Shuyan walked toward her, using her gaze to indicate to Ji Nuan to move toward the side. Ji Nuan did not speak, turning to approach a tall flower vase in the corner of the room.

An Shuyan stood by her side, speaking with a soft voice only Ji Nuan could hear. "To speak the truth, for me, tonight is indeed a rare, good opportunity. I've liked CEO Mo for many years since I was 11-years-old. My father and Uncle Mo once promised me that I would be able to marry him in the future."

As the autumn wind was too cold, Ji Nuan's face and lips had already turned pale. Yet, her gaze remained cold and bright. "So? Miss An most likely didn't come at such a time to only announce your stance to me."

An Shuyan smiled lightly, yet her expression carried some bitterness. "I like CEO Mo, and because I like him too much and admire him too much, I'm unable to use such a method and hold him down forcefully."

Ji Nuan silently raised her brows.

Like, was the desire to possess, while love, was not easily understood.

At this instant, Ji Nuan finally understood how serious An Shuyan was when it came to Mo Jingshen.

An Shuyan tone was unhurried. "I was aware the plan would be carried out today. Although Uncle Mo's actions have crossed the line slightly, from beginning to end, I had accepted it. It was only at the most vital moment that I gave up."

"To avoid the eyes that Uncle Mo had arranged, I handed the coffee they had given me to a different secretary working with me. It contained a drug that would cause one to lose consciousness for more than ten hours. After she became unconscious, I exchanged my clothes with her. The people Uncle Mo had arranged aren't especially familiar with me, so they brought the unconscious secretary away and into the arranged room."

Ji Nuan glanced at her. "Since you agreed to this plan, why did you still arrange to drug yourself?"

An Shuyan chuckled lightly. "It should be easy for you to guess the reason."

Ji Nuan smiled coldly.

Indeed.

A shrewd woman like An Shuyan, if she wanted to use such an opportunity to be with Mo Jingshen, she would definitely save a backdoor open for herself. If she were similarly drugged, she would then become an innocent party.

"Actually, if it was a fair competition, I might not have lost to you. Even if I lost, it would be based on CEO Mo's feelings and not against you," An Shuyan softly emphasized.

Yet, Ji Nuan only lightly curved her lips. "Miss An, the very instant you agreed to such a plan, you already lost."

An Shuyan's expression faltered, and the hint of helplessness in her eyes did not escape Ji Nuan's notice.

"If you had even the slightest possibility of victory, you wouldn't have agreed to such a narrow-minded and low-class plan!" Ji Nuan's eyes were filled with iciness. "What woke you up at the end, was not how much you loved Mo Jingshen, but how much you understood him. You knew that such a plan would not only prevent you from obtaining him, but it would also trigger consequences that are beyond your imagination."

An Shuyan chuckled. "Mrs. Mo, you really are unlike how the rumors described you or perhaps I've underestimated you."

"I don't need you to think highly of me." Ji Nuan slowed her words. "Right now, your own realization is what has truly saved your life. You should be aware that Mo Jingshen isn't someone who takes to threats well. That you would take such a step was all to protect yourself."

An Shuyan suddenly stared at her, speaking softly, "Right now you're so impolite, aren't you afraid that I'll leave and keep CEO Mo's location a secret?"

"I'm your protection amulet. Do you dare to leave?" The mockery in Ji Nuan's eyes was light, yet it was precise enough to cause An Shuyan's mental state to tremble.
