The Warm Breeze Is Not As Warm As You Chapter 149

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 s.h.i.+fted 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 .

The wind brushed past her ears . Ji Nuan suddenly returned the grip around Mo Jingshen's hand very tightly .

The man sensed her change and paused his footsteps . He lowered his head to look at her .

At the same moment, Ji Nuan tilted her head up to smile at him .

The little woman's smile made her eyes curve as well . Mo Jingshen looked at her . “What's wrong?”

Ji Nuan had on a secretive appearance as she shook her head .

Women were often emotional creatures . Even after living more than one life, it did not make her an exception .

She was simply recalling the words he had said .

They would be together forever .

Never divorce  .

Ji Nuan tightened her grip around his hand .

Late evening . Although the medical hot spring was good for her body, after soaking in it, she kept feeling thirsty .

Ji Nuan had yet to sleep at 11:00 p . m . Mo Jingshen was by her side, half leaning on a pillow as he scanned through his emails on his phone .

Ji Nuan did not disturb him and lifted the blankets to move off the bed . She only said she was, “going to ask someone to boil some water for me,” before wearing a robe to gently walk out of the room .

She was not especially familiar with the Mo home . There was a helper who was supposed to come by occasionally to check if they needed anything, but coincidentally the helper was not around .

Ji Nuan walked out and noticed the lights in the living room were still on . She thought the helper would be there and walked over .

In the end, she did not see the helper but Mo Shaoze sitting on the sofa with a poor complexion . His brows were slightly knitted .

“Father . ” Ji Nuan saw his poor expression and that he seemed to be feeling ill . Even though she did not wish to suffer his glare, she still approached him .

Mo Shaoze heard Ji Nuan's voice and immediately turned to her coldly . “Why are you here?”

“I was going to look for a helper to boil some water to drink, but I couldn't find anyone . I saw the lights were turned on, so I came . ” Ji Nuan moved closer . “Are you feeling unwell?”

Mo Shaoze impatiently frowned, raising a hand to press against his forehead as he said indifferently, “I'm getting on in years . I can't take an environment that's too warm . After soaking in the hot spring for too long, I've been having a headache for the whole night . ”

Ji Nuan scanned the surroundings but still did not see any helpers around . She asked, “Are you the only one here? Is anyone bringing medicine? Is the pain severe? Do you need to see a doctor?”

“It's an old problem, there's no need to take medicine . ” Mo Shaoze placed his hand down and glanced at her unkindly . “Don't pretend to shed crocodile tears . If you want water, then go elsewhere to look for it . Don't stand here to be an eyesore!”

If it was not because he was Mo Jingshen's father, Ji Nuan definitely would not have endured his explosive temper and would have raged back .

“If your head hurts so badly that you can't sleep, shall I try giving you a ma.s.sage?” Ji Nuan's tone was unhurried and carried the patience and respect for an elder .

Mo Shaoze's brows raised as he coldly sneered . “You know how?”

“I'll try . ” Ji Nuan did not say more and walked around the sofa to stand behind him . She did not wait for Mo Shaoze to reject her coldly and gently rubbed his head . After finding the right acupuncture point, she increased her strength .

Mo Shaoze was quiet for a moment . He did not speak, nor did he ask her to leave . He only sat there like an ice cube . After a while, he narrowed his eyes . “You know how to do this?”

“My father has headaches too . I learned a bit previously but never had the opportunity to do it for him . ”

“Don't they say Hai Cheng's Ji family's eldest daughter is extremely pampered? You actually have the filial heart to do this?”
