Most of the time, it was nothing more than grievance and anger.

  Someone knocked on the door and wanted to talk to Mo Jingshen. After he went out, Ji Nuan packed her luggage alone in the room.

  Half an hour later, Mo Jingshen went back and found that Ji Nuan’s luggage had been put in one of the bedrooms, but Ji Nuan had fallen asleep because she just had a long flight and then had been waiting for him on the sofa for too long.

  Mo Jingshen bent down to pick up the phone she had left on the carpet, picked her up, and put her gently on the bed. Then he pulled the covers over and pushed her hair off the pillow. He looked at her for a moment, then turned, and walked out of the bedroom.

  In the living room of the suite, Mo Jingshen opened the floor-to-ceiling window, walked to the European-style railing of the balcony, looked out at the wide, endless lawn, pulled out the vibrating cellphone, and picked it up expressionlessly.

  The voice of the other side rang out quickly. “CEO Mo.”


  “Have you got any clue?”


  “Yes, we’ve got it. As you expected, the so-called potential business partner in Los Angeles that wants to negotiate that project with MN Group is the head of a financial investment company who has actually been bought off by Aqib’s brother, Atuta. Their purpose is to bring Miss Ji to the United States without arousing her suspicion because the business partner in the middle has a long-term cooperative relationship with that head of the financial company and also has a cooperative relationship with MN Group. Therefore, the potential partner he introduces would seem very trustworthy. They can’t do anything to her in China and they know Miss Ji is your weakness. There’s really no better way for them than to use normal business negotiations to get her to Los Angeles. They knew because you are back in Los Angeles, Miss Ji would have not refused this job and would definitely come to Los Angeles.”


  Mo Jingshen’s eyes fell on the lawn far away, and a cold gleam flickered in his cold black eyes.

  He put one hand on the railing of the balcony and said coldly, “Let her business partner who came here with her this time believe that the financial investment company had been closed a week ago and all its projects have been suspended. They will suffer a loss if they cooperate with that company. Let him drop the idea of dragging Ji Nuan into the project, and let him break off the negotiation so that they won’t have a chance to get close to her.”


  “All right.”


  The man then said coldly, “By the way, force the financial company colluding with Atuta to shut down. It will never ever have a chance to come back again.”


  “I see. Then didn’t Miss Ji come to the US for nothing this time?”


  Mo Jingshen put a hand on the railing and tapped on it with his long, well-shaped fingers. The cold wind blew on the lawn in the distance. He said, “Just find a company for her to continue this project. Don’t let her come for nothing, and send her back to Hai City as soon as she finishes the job.”


  The person on the other side of the phone said hesitantly, “It’s easy to find a cooperation company of the same level for Miss Ji, but CEO Mo, I’m afraid we can’t make her return to Hai City after finishing the negotiation…… After all, if you are here, doesn’t it depend on you whether she goes or not?”


  “Really?” Mo Jingshen said flatly, “Then I’ll send her back to Hai City in person. Everything in Los Angeles will be left to Nanheng and you guys.”


  “.……”


  The person on the side of the line almost cried. “We will try our best to make Miss Ji finish her work successfully and persuade her to go back to Hai City willingly. We won’t let her stay in this dangerous place for too long.”


  “Good, go ahead.”


  Mo Jingshen hung up and took a look at the room where Ji Nuan was sleeping.

  Atuta would certainly stop at nothing to get those secrets from him. He even wanted to use Ji Nuan. Knowing that they could do nothing to Ji Nuan if she was in China, he tried to lure her to the United States on the pretext of a business cooperation.

  It didn’t matter if he told her in advance how dangerous it was. At least she would know better how to protect herself in this situation.

  Ji Nuan slept for a while and then woke up. After all, it was not yet dark. She had fallen asleep as she was waiting for him on the sofa. She got up to wash her face and came out, only to find Mo Jingshen reading her work emails on her computer.

  “Mo Jingshen, MN Group, and Shine Group are not the same company. Why are you reading my emails on my computer? Are you trying to steal MN’s trade secrets?”


  Looking at the man’s figure, Ji Nuan came over.

  Mo Jingshen casually opened another email of hers and said gently without even looking back, “If I don’t read your work emails, I don’t know that all those small companies with no real strength are dreaming of annexing MN Group. You’re really a fat piece of meat in their eyes.”


  Ji Nuan. “.……After all, MN Group has just moved back to China, so we can’t miss any cooperation chance, but I have my criteria when it comes to choosing business partners. Although MN Group is well known in the global Chinese community, we’re not as powerful as Shine. Shine can reject any company that isn’t strong enough, but I can’t.”


  He smiled. “Why don’t you sleep a little longer?”


  Ji Nuan came over and saw that he had just deleted the useless emails in her email box. Several small companies in the United States had contacted her, but she didn’t pay much attention to it. She had planned to take the opportunity to go on a field trip, but he had deleted those emails in the twinkling of an eye.

  Ji Nuan pouted in anger and reached out to grab her computer back. “Hey, how could you delete my emails?!”


  The man looked at her. “It’s just a waste of time to read the emails from these junk companies. Just stay here for a few days and go nowhere. Don’t waste your time contacting them.”


  Ji Nuan checked the emails that he had deleted and found that those emails were all sent by the companies that she had decided to reject.

  She sat next to him and casually clicked the mouse. “Do you think this will get you off the hook for stealing commercial secrets from MN? You, the CEO of Shine, are reading my company’s emails on my computer! How did you crack my computer’s password?”


  He smiled. “It’s the same as your phone password. Why should I bother to crack it?”


  “.……”
