Chapter 349: In the Dark Corner, a Man and a Woman…

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Especially when Su Xueyi suddenly saw Ji Nuan, she stared at her with red eyes as if being stimulated, and then turned and came straight to Ji Nuan.

Before Ji Nuan had noticed Su Xueyi’s motion, Mo Jingshen had quietly drawn her behind him and shielded her with his body.

“Ji Nuan? Why are you here?” As if not seeing anyone else, Su Xueyi stared at Ji Nuan.

Su Xueyi was about to go up to her when Mo Jingshen’s cold and indifferent voice rang. “Elder Su, what do you mean?”

“Xueyi has been cooped up at home since she was frightened last time. Now it’s Spring Festival, and we can’t keep this child in the room all day. As her best friend, Zhilan took her to this dinner party for relaxation. You know, she suffers a mental illness, so if we take her to places where there are a lot of people maybe she can get better,” Elder Su said all smiles.

Mental illness?

No wonder Su Xueyi looked so strange. It turned out that she had a mental illness, but Su Xueyi could still speak out her name. Did Mo Jingshen or Nan Heng do something to Su Xueyi because of what Su Xueyi did to her? She knew they would surely take revenge on her, but what kind of revenge had frightened her into this state?

She had lost at least ten pounds, and she looked so pale and frightened, which couldn’t be faked. Obviously, she was indeed ill.

Ji Nuan didn’t come forward but, standing behind Mo Jingshen, looked pensively at Su Xueyi, who kept staring at her as her eyes grew redder and redder.

“Come on, Xueyi, Miss Ji just came to attend this dinner party. Let the past be the past. She won’t do anything to you anymore. Don’t be afraid.” Su Zhilan took Su Xueyi’s hand, coaxing her in a voice that was loud enough to be heard by everyone present, looking like a good sister who doted on her poor little cousin.

The people present were all surprised at what she said.

No one knew why Su Xueyi suddenly became like this, but from what Su Zhilan said, it seemed that Su Xueyi became ill because of Ji Nuan? Su Xueyi was scared of Ji Nuan? It was known to everyone that the Su family was very powerful. Su Xueyi was a member of the Su family. So, was it because of Ji Nuan that Su Zhilan lost her fiancée, and Su Xueyi was driven mad?

In an instant, everyone gave Ji Nuan strange looks while she glanced expressionlessly at Su Zhilan, who took Su Xueyi into the crowd. She didn’t expect that Su Zhilan would take Su Xueyi here. What was the point for her to do these meaningless things?

Mo Jingshen suddenly tightened his grip of her hand as if trying to comfort her. Ji Nuan couldn’t help cracking a smile at him, ignoring those strange stares.

Then, Su Xueyi, who had just been taken away, suddenly looked back and stared crazily at Ji Nuan.

Ji Nuan withdrew her gaze from Su Xueyi and asked Mo Jingshen in a low voice behind him, “What’s wrong with her?”


Mo Jingshen tightened his grip of her hand again and looked back at her. “Let’s leave earlier tonight. We’d better not stay here for long, okay?”

Ji Nuan nodded, and Feng Ling, standing beside her, said to her in a voice that only she and Mo Jingshen could hear, “You were kidnapped in T City last time, which was planned by Su Xueyi. The Su family used to be connected with the underworld, so she dared do that to you and cooperated with that night cellar owner to kidnap you. After she was sent back to the US, Nan Heng had K and his brothers teach her a lesson, and she has been like this since then.”

Ji Nuan looked at Mo Jingshen and then at Feng Ling. “So, what did K and his men did to Su Xueyi?”

“They just paid her back in kind. They drugged and kidnapped her. She was beaten, threatened, and sold to an underworld bar of the American black market. She was bought by three men and tortured by them for several days. When the Su family had the police save her, she was in the brink of death.”

The horrible scene last time popped out in Ji Nuan’s mind. If Mo Jingshen hadn’t come in time, she might not have been able to escape from those people. Then what would have happened? Would she have committed suicide after being raped, or would she not even had had the strength to commit suicide and then be sold over and over again?

Su Xueyi just reaped the fruits of her own actions. K and his men just copied her means, so she could blame no one but herself.

Su Xueyi was frightened and then tortured by three men. No wonder she became so spaced out and skinny.

The Su family people were gone, but Mo Jingshen still held her hands and stayed by her side, not leaving her again.

When the banquet was in full swing, there was a burst of laughter and applause. It seemed that Mo Shaoze was drinking with several business partners of his. Seeing that many people around were applauding, Ji Nuan also raised her hands to follow the applause. Her eyes searched among the crowd, but she didn’t see Su Xueyi and Su Zhilan.

Had Su Zhilan taken Su Xueyi away because the latter was in such a poor condition? After all, she had successfully taken advantage of Su Xueyi to splashed dirty water on Ji Nuan.

When everyone was toasting together, Ji Nuan didn’t drink because she was pregnant. Mo Jingshen smiled and quietly held her hand in his. He was really good-looking, especially when he smiled.

The dinner party went well. When it was about to end, Ji Nuan touched her belly. As a pregnant woman, she needed to go to the restroom frequently. She said, “Jingshen, I’m going to the restroom.”

Mo Jingshen happened to be talking with one of his business partners, and he certainly couldn’t accompany her into the ladies’ room, so he patted her hand and signaled her to go with Feng Ling. “Let Feng Ling go with you.”

“All right.”

Ji Nuan turned to search for Feng Ling, only to see Nan Heng was pushing Feng Ling into a corner when no one was paying attention.

In the dark corner, a man and a woman…

Ji Nuan: “…”

It seemed that she shouldn’t go over now!

She glanced over there, then at the restroom a few steps behind her…

On this side, Feng Ling finally broke free from Nan Heng’s arms and took a look at the dining hall expressionlessly, only to find that Ji Nuan, who had been following Mo Jingshen, disappeared.

Feng Ling looked around in confusion but suddenly found that Su Zhilan was standing with Elder Su, and Su Xueyi was not in sight.
