(1) Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

Chapter 43: Carrying Her Up and Stuffing Her Into the Blanket

Earlier, the car had driven out too quickly. Right now, they were still 400 to 500 meters away from land.

While being tugged forward by Mo Jingshen, Ji Nuan tried her best to paddle forward with her hands to prevent from being too much of a burden.

Even after leaving the surface, Ji Mengran still held tightly onto Ji Nuan, refusing to let go no matter what.

“Almost there!” Ji Nuan saw that land was closer and closer.

“Still able to hold on?” Seeing that their goal was near, Mo Jingshen’s voice was no longer as heavy.

Ji Nuan nodded her head. “I can!”

He gazed at her face; some sentiment surging in his dark eyes. His low, hoarse voice carried some difficult to detect praise. “Based on your fitness level, your ability to swim is considered rather impressive. You actually still have the energy to swim over.”

Ji Nuan saw the approaching land, and her emotions relaxed. “I have to hold on! Let go of me; I can swim there by myself!”

It was only then that Mo Jingshen released her.

A few minutes later, just as she was about to climb on land, she almost felt forward as the sand she stepped on was too soft. Mo Jingshen, who was by her side the whole time, reached out and held her.

They had finally arrived on land. Ji Nuan no longer had any energy, so Mo Jingshen supported her.

The sky had already turned dark. Ji Nuan’s body was trembling from head to toe, yet she did not forget to hold on tight to her purse. Her teeth could not stop chattering. “The chess record meant for Grandfather Mo is still in my bag… this bag of mine is supposed to be waterproof… and the phone is also inside the bag… I’m not sure if water entered…”

“You’re still worried about the chess record at such a time?” Mo Jingshen glanced at her drenched body, raising his brows that remained handsome despite his drenched look.

Ji Nuan did feel slightly uncomfortable. Her whole face had already turned pale, and she was cold to the point where she could not speak very well, “This is… what you won for me… and it’s what Grandfather Mo likes…”

In the autumn night by the sea, their breaths could visibly be seen turning misty white when they spoke. This showed how cold it really was.

Compared to the autumn night, his gaze was much warmer. His cold and charming eyes held tenderness for her. He reached out his hand and gently pushed aside the wet hair stuck on her face. “Let’s leave this place first.”

“All right.” Ji Nuan nodded while shivering. Under the night sky, her eyes seemed to shine like stars.

Ji Mengran was behind them. After collapsing on land, she took in breaths desperately. She could not speak, nor could she move. Since she had followed them out of the ocean, when she was done resting, she could find a way back herself.

After climbing back on land, from beginning to end, Mo Jingshen did not glance at her, much less give a word of concern or comfort.

Ji Mengran harshly clawed the sand beneath her. She refused to accept this; she refused, she refused!

Ji Nuan, what right do you have?!

——

After returning to the Yu Garden, Ji Nuan finally relaxed. The moment she stepped through the door, she no longer had any energy and entirely leaned on Mo Jingshen’s body.

“We came back alive…,” she breathed harshly. Her voice was hoarse because of the fatigue.

If not for Mo Jingshen and his quick thinking and actions that helped them to avoid the dangerous situation, her second life would have ended right there.
