Chapter 173: Under the Light, Mo Jingshen’s Calm Eyes Abruptly Turned Cold

Ji Nuan immediately froze where she stood.

The well-crafted, Italian handmade shoes smacked against the floor steadily with force. However, to Ji Nuan’s ears, this sound was an ominous signal.

She had just arranged her expression to show a perfect smile when she felt a slightly cold hand land on her shoulder.

“Your hands; stretch them out,” Mo Jingshen calmly said.

“…” Ji Nuan stared at him without moving.

The man’s expression gradually turned cold. After staring at her for a long while, he suddenly released a light, cold chuckle. “Did you think you would be able to hide it for long?”

Ji Nuan sighed loudly in her heart.

She really did not wish to tell him about the small accident that had occurred due to her own carelessness. It was too embarrassing.

Her feet subconsciously took another step back. She was about to use the opportunity to head in first when she saw Auntie Chen by the door.

“Come here.” Mo Jingshen’s voice became heavy.

Ji Nuan was helpless and could only droop her head as she approached. Mo Jingshen lowered his eyes to look at her.

She paused, noticing that Feng Ling was still outside the Yu Garden’s door. She suspected that there was truly no way she could continue hiding this, and could only stretch both her hands out from behind her back.

Mo Jingshen lowered his eyes to see her bandaged palms and her slightly reddened and swollen fingers. He immediately held her wrists and strode into the villa. Auntie Chen saw his heavy and cold expression and did not dare to approach and speak. Just like this, Ji Nuan was brought upstairs into the room.

“These are just some superficial wounds. I didn’t want to make you worry, so I asked Feng Ling to keep quiet about it. I’ve already had it checked in the hospital. It’ll be fine as long as I don’t touch water for the next few days. Don’t be angr…” Ji Nuan knew that Mo Jingshen was clearly displaying the calm before the storm, and could not give up the opportunity to soothe his anger. She kept trying to explain herself.

Mo Jingshen did not reply. He opened the main bedroom door and brought her in. “Go in. My mood is bad right now. Don’t make me repeat myself.”

All the words Ji Nuan wanted to say were immediately blocked. She could only enter obediently.

The moment the door was closed, she turned back to see that Mo Jingshen’s expression was rather unkind.

“Explain,” he coldly spat out this word.

“First, promise you won’t blame Feng Ling. She’s very diligent. It’s all because of my own carelessness. I was also the one who stopped her from telling you,” Ji Nuan said helplessly.

Mo Jingshen took off his coat and threw it aside. His actions could not be considered as gentle as he unbuttoned his collar. He told Ji Nuan heavily, “Don’t rush to cover someone else’s wrongdoings. Since you made her hide this from me, explain yourself well. How did your hands get wounded when you only spent less than ten hours in the studio?”

Ji Nuan could only honestly repeat in detail everything that happened today. When the man heard about the dismembered doll dressed in a wedding gown, his increasingly icy gaze made her rush onto the explanation about how Feng Ling brought her to the hospital. She told him about how Qin Siting cleaned and bandaged her wounds.
