Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?
Chapter 718
Chapter 718: Calm Down, Calm Down, Ahhh, She Needs to Calm Down!
Mo Jingshen's graceful brows moved slightly. "Does that mean I can kiss you?"
Ji Nuan: "…"
Before her accident in Los Angeles, he always did as he pleased without consideration of their location. Right now, was he taking advantage of the situation to act obedient? Was he regaining his true colours as an old fox now that she had finally untangled her emotional knots?
Ji Nuan rolled her eyes at him. "No."
After speaking, she quickly approached the dining table to place the bowl down. She then rushed back into the kitchen, saying: "You should eat first. I'll go serve myself a bowl; I'm so hungry."
The man glanced at her and did not say more. He did as he was told and sat down.
Finally, Ji Nuan brought another bowl out along with two sets of cutlery. She handed one of them to Mo Jingshen. The man watched from the side as she lowered her head to sip the porridge, commenting casually: "Ever since you regained consciousness, you won't even look at me when you eat. And so, for the past few days, the little clingy bug who constantly lazed on top of me refusing to budge, who would hug and kiss me for no reason, was that actually you?"
Ji Nuan: "…"
In everyone's subconscious, there would always be less restrained sides to them; such as a more immature personality, or a more startling behaviour.
Unfortunately, what she allowed Mo Jingshen to witness was the most naive, immature, innocent and harmless side of her.
Ji Nuan bit down on her spoon and raised her eyes, speaking unclearly: "Don't you find it extremely dumb?"
"It's not dumb if it's you."
"…"
"It's quite cute."
"…"
"Especially when you clung onto me refusing to budge, and when you kept asking about the 'good things' I was storing in my pants."
Ji Nuan: "…"
——
Calm down, calm down.
She couldn't let him off just because they had a serious incident of life and death in Los Angeles.
Ji Nuan soaked in the pool and held her breath. It seemed like her head injury this time was quite serious. In the past, she was always able to hold her breath for quite some time. However, right now, her head would begin throbbing from the lack of air after several seconds.
She repeated this over and over again, slowly increasing her endurance. In her heart, she kept saying to herself, calm down, you need to calm down.
Originally, Ji Nuan did not plan on swimming. However, the doctor from last night was here again today to give Mo Jingshen a check-up; to confirm if his condition had improved. Ji Nuan did not head into the room and after sitting in the living room for a while, she decided to come out for a walk. Mo Jingshen knew that she was no longer as dazed and allowed her to leave; however, she was still restricted to the hotel area.
The hotel's business was good and the area was quite crowded. Only the private areas and swimming pools close to the suites were empty. Thus, Ji Nuan decided to come here.
By the side, there was a fresh robe and a new swimsuit suited of her size delivered by an attendant. After sitting by the pool for a while, Ji Nuan decided to change to swim.
——
The doctor had already left. Mo Jingshen only had a simple case of gastritis, and now that his fever had reduced, and he had taken the prescribed antibiotics and kept to a light diet, there was nothing much to worry about.
The man stood before the ceiling-to-floor windows, facing the blue, round swimming pool set amidst the green, grassy area. A white figure swam here and there like a fish. She was very self-aware and repeatedly practiced holding her breath to train her brain's endurance.
He saw that Ji Nuan's posture in the pool was no longer as excitable and curious as it had been previously. She took a break after swimming for a while and did not continue swimming.
He watched for a long moment. At 2:00 p.m. sharp, two hotel employees knocked on the door and entered to perform room service. When they saw that Mo Jingshen was still present in the room, they spoke respectfully: "Mr. Mo, we're here to clean the room. Are we disturbing you?"
Mo Jingshen responded lightly and did not say more.
Hearing his response, the two rushed to clean up this immense suite.
As the vacuum cleaner noise filled the room, Mo Jingshen gradually shifted his gaze away from the figure moving about in the pool. He seemed to have recalled something and turned to speak to the employee who was cleaning in the living room. "Are there any fresh roses in the hotel?"
The employee thought over his question. "We do, Mr. Mo. As the only seven star hotel in this island, we order up to thousands of roses into the island everyday. Most of them are used to decorate the dining tables. We also scatter the petals onto the beds for newly wedded couples. We specifically ship in famous Bulgarian roses."
Back in Jing City, he recalled a little brat who didn't fear death gifting Ji Nuan with a large bouquet of roses. At the time, he had thrown it into the rubbish bin right before her eyes.
Mo Jingshen asked calmly, "How much roses are left from today's delivery?"
"They are all untouched. We typically only start preparing them in the late afternoon to be used in the evening."
"Have them deliver over and send everything you have right now to me."
"All right, Mr. Mo." After hearing Mo Jingshen's command, the employee did not dare to delay and immediately arranged for someone to do so.
Half an hour later.
Ji Nuan was still practicing holding her breath underwater. She previously did some research on the internet and found that there shouldn't be much problems when it came to recovering from head injuries like hers. At most, she would experience occasional headaches. To avoid this, it was advised for her to exercise regularly and to swim often to practice holding her breath. This would strengthen her brain's endurance and speed up her recovery. It claimed that, as long as she practiced this regularly, the headaches would be eliminated easily.
After practicing for a long while, she was able to stay underwater for around twelve to thirteen seconds. Everytime she came out of the water, she found it easier to breathe.
This time, she managed to hold on for a second longer. Ji Nuan's head had just reappeared when her eyes widened into a dumbstruck expression. A few beads of water flowed down from her eyelashes, and she rushed to wipe the water away from her eyes.
The man who was supposed to be resting in his room had suddenly appeared by the poolside. He was even holding onto a bouquet of… glistening and alluring roses.
It was red; the red roses were especially vivid and beautiful.
Ji Nuan was dazed:."Why are you holding onto those roses?"
"Don't you like them?" The man watched her and spoke lightly, "They had some in the hotel, so I asked them to bring them over."
Ji Nuan: "…"
He was really unashamed of sharing the truth.
He could have said that he had specially shipped them from abroad for her, or explained simply that he wanted to move her heart. Instead, he directly divulged to her that this was what the hotel already had.
She stayed in the pool. Originally, she wanted to say that she didn't want it. However, when she raised her head to see that the man, who was typically calm and composed, was holding onto the bouquet as though he was waiting sincerely for her to come up from the pool…
Ji Nuan quickly submerged her head back underwater.
Calm down, calm down! Ahh, she needs to calm down!
