Chapter 594: Mo Jingshen Directly Plucked Her Up From Amidst the Sheets

The man abruptly let go of her. She had only just hauled the sheets over and immediately fell backward onto the bed. The instant she landed, she swerved her head over to see the light smile on the man’s lips; he seemed to be laughing at her for overestimating herself.

She was immediately angered into rolling her eyes. She tugged the sheets up to cover her head.

“You just took your medicine. Wait for a while. Someone will be delivering food later. If you don’t have the strength to eat, I’ll feed you. Your fever is high right now. Even if you wish to clash with me, you have to build your strength back first. You should understand what is best for yourself right now.” The man’s voice could be heard through the sheets.

Ji Nuan stayed within the sheets refusing to speak up. It seemed that her fever was truly serious; despite staying stifled within the sheets for so long, she did not sweat at all. If she had, it was likely her fever would have already reduced.

After a moment, she sensed that the man had stood up and walked away. She gradually tugged the sheets down and glanced through the window at the darkening skies to confirm that she had really slept for a whole day.

Right now, it was true that she lacked the strength and energy to reflect on anything. She had already missed her flight back to Hai City. Even if she went to the airport now, it was unlikely that she would be able to obtain a ticket for today’s flight. With her current state, it was also impossible for her to leave the bed. After last night’s torture, there was truly no need for her to take it out on herself.

After staring through the windows for a moment, Ji Nuan gradually closed her eyes. She easily fell back asleep.

Half an hour later, Mo Jingshen received the dinner delivered by the hotel staff. He brought the tray in to see that the little woman was fast asleep on the bed. She had curled up under the sheets as though she felt defenseless.

In her undressed state, she instinctively held the sheets tightly against her body. Before daylight, he had carried her to take a shower and had planned to help her put on her clothes. However, she was both tired and dazed. The moment he placed her on the bed, she kept struggling and crying for him not to touch her any further. Afterward, she had hidden under the sheets and squeezed toward the edge of the bed. Without moving further, she fell asleep whimpering softly. Seeing her pitiful appearance, he gave up and did not insist on putting her clothes on.

Although he could not bear to wake her up now, it had been a whole day since she last ate. Even the medicine she had taken in the day had been fed to her with some difficulty. If she didn’t eat now, it was likely that the fever-reducing medicine would cause her stomach discomfort. Furthermore, she had expended so much energy in her feverish state last night.

“Eat something before you sleep more.” Mo Jingshen directly plucked her out from the sheets.

Ji Nuan was still asleep when she was abruptly dug out of the sheets. She instinctively knitted her brows, and before she could open her eyes, she heard the man’s low, husky voice: “Vegetarian steam dumplings, tofu soup, and vegetable porridge. There are also a few light dishes. What do you feel like eating?”

Ji Nuan opened her eyes to see that the man’s face was right next to hers. She sensed that he was holding her and her reddened, feverish face immediately knitted in displeasure. She turned her head over to see the tray of dishes placed on the table.

She shut her eyes, answering hoarsely: “I want to eat roast chicken, Manchu Han Feast, sushi, pizza, roast pork dumplings, salmon…”

The man quietly listened to her speak before answering: “You can have that after your fever reduces. For now, you can only have light dishes.”

Hearing this, Ji Nuan immediately raised the sheets to cover her head back. She spoke impatiently: “Then I won’t eat.” She twisted to move out of the man’s embrace and lay back onto the bed.

However, the man easily hauled her back. He forced her to sit up on the bed: “If you don’t eat now, do you plan on maintaining this state where even sitting up leaves you exhausted?”

After being forced to sit up, Ji Nuan was angered: “I can’t take anything right now. I don’t want to eat anything bland!”

The man nodded. Just as Ji Nuan was about to lay back, he leaned down and caught her burning lips. Ji Nuan was instantly startled. She tried to push him off with all her might but only managed to separate them by a finger’s distance. Her gaze was burning with rage but before she could argue with him, he leaned down and kissed her once more.

Ji Nuan was dumbstruck for several seconds. The man then pressed his palm against the back of her head. He did not restrain himself because of her weak state and even deepened the kiss.

Their tongues intertwined. Without the influence of alcohol, Ji Nuan was fully conscious. Images from last night’s intimacy easily flooded back into her head and caused her scalp to prickle numbly. She pushed back against him weakly but at last, she could only keep her head lifted as she received the man’s kiss. Her fingers subconsciously gripped his clothes tightly.

As her consciousness grew muddled, the man released her head and stopped the kiss. Before Ji Nuan could fall back weakly, he held her waist and brought her into his embrace.

Ji Nuan took a moment to react but the man had already spoken lightly: “Are we still discussing?”

Ji Nuan: “…”

“I’ll bring you over.”

“Mo Jingshen, I’m not dressed!” Before he could bring her up, she gripped the sheets around her tightly.

The man only paused for a moment. He stood up and approached her luggage to bring out a loose and comfortable smock dress. He returned and help her to put it on before Ji Nuan finally released her grip around the sheets. He fastened the buttons on the smock dress one by one and brought her up into a princess carry.

As they approached the table, Mo Jingshen placed her on the closest couch and asked: “What do you feel like eating?

Ji Nuan did not answer. Her gaze flitted toward the dishes on the table before finally landing on the vegetable porridge and tofu soup.

The man did not ask again. He directly brought the dishes she was eyeing before her. He originally thought to hand her the cutlery, but seeing the way she was weakly leaning against the couch, he brought the bowl over and lifted the spoon to her lips: “Open your mouth.”

Ji Nuan did not wish to cooperate but she needed to regain some strength. She couldn’t continue starving.

Furthermore, after Mo Jingshen’s fierce manner last night, she felt that it was not too much to make him serve her food.

Thus, with some intention to take revenge, Ji Nuan opened her mouth angrily and swallowed the bite of vegetable porridge. Her gaze was cold and hateful as she watched the man before her.

However, as the man fed her, he sat straight by her side and appeared graceful and handsome. His cool-toned shirt was neat and his movements were natural. It made her feel as though he was personally feeding a small animal.

A small animal?

After two lifetimes, this mental image caused Ji Nuan to strangely shiver. She reached up and grabbed the bowl from him, speaking unhappily: “I’ll eat on my own.”
