The man stood by the door. His cold brows instantly knitted after seeing how she had frozen in place and had even wrapped herself with the robe and towel like a snowman.

“Come here,” he mildly said, his tone did not betray a hint of his emotions.

Ji Nuan remained unmoved where she was. She thought he had returned to the evening party, but he had actually…

Left to buy her food?

“During the incident tonight, you fell unconscious, and your body was cold like ice. Right now, you’re standing in front of the window to feel the breeze. Do you want to fall badly ill?” Mo Jingshen’s voice was slightly heavy. “Close the windows and come here.”

Ji Nuan did feel slightly cold. Earlier on, she had only thought the breeze would help clear her mind. After seeing Mo Jingshen’s gaze becoming colder, she closed the window.

Walking over, she glanced down at the food he was holding. Just by the scent alone, she could tell it was the few dishes she usually enjoyed.

She raised her eyes to see Mo Jingshen looking at her robe. He did not appear as cold as before.

“You didn’t return to the party?” Ji Nuan cleared her throat, speaking somewhat unnaturally. “I thought…”

Mo Jingshen stretched his hand out to hold her cheek. Ji Nuan startled, raising her eyes to look at him.

Her skin felt ice-cold. He did not speak, but his cold, charming brows furrowed. His warm palm gently rubbed her face until Ji Nuan’s expression was no longer as stiff. He then placed the takeaway in his other hand down on the table by the side.

“One An Shuyan alone was enough to anger you so much. If I were to return now, you might dare to jump down from the eighteenth floor,” Mo Jingshen’s said briskly.

Ji Nuan: “… I haven’t reached the point where I don’t want my life.”

Mo Jingshen glanced at her, reaching out to hold her chin. His cold and bright pupils looked at her in askance. “Awake now?”

“I took a shower just now. It cleared my mind a bit.” Ji Nuan attempted to turn her head away but was held firmly by him. She was unable to shift her gaze away.

She raised her eyes, meeting his. The man’s eyes were slightly dark and heavy. He focused on her for a long moment. “How do you explain Sheng Yihan?”

Ji Nuan lifted her eyelids, her tone slightly disapproving. “We don’t have much relationship. He has always been Xia Tian’s main doctor. Whenever I visit Xia Tian at the hospital, we’ll unavoidably have to interact a bit.”

Seeing Mo Jingshen watching her with that cold, dark gaze, she could not help but knit her brows as she continued explaining, “He is returning to the Sheng family soon, and he invited me to attend the evening party together. Initially, I didn’t know exactly what this party was about and wasn’t planning on attending. In the end, I was still brought here because of a series of accidents… I was afraid that there was something fishy, so I kept refusing to go in. Afterward… I saw you and An Shuyan…”

Ji Nuan’s gaze flitted up to him somewhat casually. Even if she did not speak, her meaning was clear.

What she meant was that she completely had no intention of being someone’s female companion, nor did she wish to have any relations with Sheng Yihan.

Was it not all because of him? Otherwise, there would not have been so much trouble today.

Understanding her expression of self-indignant complain, Mo Jingshen was angered and couldn’t help but chuckle.
