Chapter 149: Isn’t It Exciting?

Elder Mo, who had just received the walking stick, suddenly fell backwards onto the ground and then rolled several meters away.

He scolded with a face full of rage. “Your old man is already so old! After soaking in the hot spring for so long, my legs are all numb, and my hands are weak! What are you still looking for! The more I walk in, the stuffier and more uncomfortable it is! Support me out now!”

The elder had actually fallen on the ground; he was really taking this act seriously.

Mo Shaoze’s expression was ugly. He clearly knew what was happening but was unable to investigate further. He picked up the walking stick with a dark expression, supporting the elder out. As they left, the elder intentionally made ‘aiyo, aiyo’ noises.

When the two were a distance away, Ji Nuan finally relaxed and leaned on Mo Jingshen.

Mo Jingshen sighed with a smile. “What are you hiding for? Did you think he wouldn’t know?”

“He definitely knows. It’s so obvious it would be weird if he didn’t. But it’s still better than being caught red-handed, isn’t it? At least we won’t have to see him rolling his eyes, don’t you think?” Ji Nuan carefully poked her head out, and after confirming they had already left, she lamented, “I never expected grandfather to be so good at acting!”

“I also didn’t expect you were so good at hiding; hiding in such a place.” Mo Jingshen brought her out of the cave, his tone obviously mocking how that gap was completely useless when it came to hiding.

Ji Nuan refuted, “Isn’t it exciting?”

The man glanced at her and chuckled.

“All right, all right, let’s go out now. Otherwise, if Director Mo comes charging over, we would really waste grandfather’s Oscar-worthy acting!” Ji Nuan held his arm as they walked out.

On the mountain behind the Mo home, Mo Shaoze supported Elder Mo out of the hot spring entrance. When he saw An Shuyan standing outside, he asked, “Shu Yan, how long have you been out? Did you see Jing Shen?”

An Shuyan’s expression was calm, but her gaze shifted to the hot spring’s entrance as she said, “I didn’t see him.”

Mo Shaoze did not miss the look she tossed inside. His stern brows knitted, but because the elder kept making noises about his pain, he could not go in to catch them. He supported the elder away with a steely expression.

When Mo Jingshen and Ji Nuan came out, An Shuyan was still standing there.

Ji Nuan’s gaze landed on An Shuyan, but An Shuyan only smiled mildly at her before turning to look at Mo Jingshen.

Mo Jingshen calmly spoke, “What time is your flight tomorrow?”

An Shuyan’s expression was no longer as evident as it had been earlier. “It’s early. I’ll have to head to the airport before the sky turns bright.”

Mo Jingshen indifferently nodded. His arm was wrapped around Ji Nuan’s waist the whole time, and he did not speak further as he brought her away.

In the evening, every path in the Mo home, be it in the front yard or the backyard, had an ancient charm. Even though it was already mid-autumn, the small winding path on the side led them through a beautiful garden accompanied by the woody scent of the forest. They walked through a cobblestone path to see a small lake in the backyard gleaming with the reflection of the moonlight.

The entire world was dark, but with the warm lights, the atmosphere was tranquil.

Ji Nuan could not recall walking quietly with Mo Jingshen in both her first and second life. At this moment, much of the wariness and loneliness, as well as the pressure from being rejected by Father Mo, seemed to dissipate.
