Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

Chapter 76: Ji Nuan Has Been Preparing to Have a Child?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The ones who had the right to come to the Mo family home today all belonged to the higher society within the country and within Hai Cheng. From the government to business to the media, they all sent their representatives to attend. Rather than calling it a birthday party, it would be more accurate to call it a social event that tested people’s will.

Everyone’s expression was an act in the show of trying to make it in this world.

Mo Peilin remained unhappy. She followed them in, opening her mouth the moment she stepped through the door. “Miss Ji sure is capable. You were able to coax our Jing Shen to the point where he treats you like a treasure. However, what good is that ability for? After marrying in for half a year, you’ve never once returned to the Mo family. Why aren’t you using your ability today, isn’t it good enough to just stay at home to be Mrs. Mo? What did you come to the Mo family home to do? After all, you’ve never cared much about us old things.”

Ji Nuan was just about to speak up when she pulled into Mo Jingshen’s embrace.

“This has nothing to do with Ji Nuan. Her body is weak. Having her rest more at the Yu Garden and go out less was arranged by me,” Mo Jingshen spoke up to protect her. His attitude was icy and did not give her any face whatsoever.

Mo Peilin rolled her eyes. The last time she brought her daughter to the Yu Garden, they did not manage to gain any benefits.

She really could not bear this injustice!

The ones who were here today included not only Mo Jingshen and the Elder. Regardless of everything, Mo Peilin had to properly discipline Ji Nuan today.

“Elder, hurry up and take a look. This is the first time Jing Shen has brought his wife home since they got married and he is already using such an attitude. He completely doesn’t give us the respect we deserve as elders. If we let this be any longer, I fear that even you won’t be prioritized above Ji Nuan. If Ji Nuan says one, it’ll be one; if she says two, it’ll be two. If she were to be unhappy and stops allowing Jing Shen to come back to the Mo family, he really would cut off contact with the Mo family!”

“Pei Lin, you’re already so old, yet you don’t know how to keep your mouth shut!” Elder Mo furrowed his brows, impatiently saying, “The reason I set their wedding home at the Yu Garden and not in the Mo family home was to let them enjoy their peaceful days. Barely anything happened in this past half year. There were no New Year’s celebration or festivals. Jing Shen is also busy with work. What would they return to the Mo family home for? Don’t stir up trouble here!”

Mo Peilin’s expression froze. She had no choice but to change her expression quickly. Although she was smiling, her words remained sharp. “How can this be considered stirring trouble ah! Elder, this Ji Nuan has not returned home even once since marrying in! I’m just using the position of an elder to nag at her.”

“Not to mention, our Jing Shen is good in every aspect. Why did he marry Ji Nuan? This Ji family’s eldest daughter, aside from having a face to boast about, how else is she suitable for our Jing Shen!”

Mo Peilin finished her words and was met with Mo Jingshen’s cold eyes. She quickly turned her eyes to meet the Elder’s but could not find any warmth in his expression either. She could only shift her gaze to a corner for fear of being glared into feeling guilty.

“Oh, that’s right, the words I spoke today also represent Jing Shen’s father’s thoughts.”

At this moment, only by using Mo Jingshen’s father could she suppress Ji Nuan.

Otherwise, Ji Nuan would really depend on Mo Jingshen and the Elder to act as she pleased in this Mo family.

Not far away, An Shuyan who sat on a sofa raised her eyes slightly, observing Mo Jingshen.

From the moment he stepped through the door, Mo Jingshen did not glance in her direction even once. Everyone in the living room was watching Mo Peilin’s show as she fearlessly ran her mouth. No one dared to cut in.

Mo Jingshen’s cold and indifferent expression and Ji Nuan’s polite smile, did not change from beginning to end. Like a mirror, it revealed how Mo Peilin had gone out of line by claiming untrue things.

“His father?” Elder Mo stood up threateningly as he slammed his walking stick down against the floor harshly, speaking sternly, “I’m his father’s old man! This old man has said nothing yet, what right does he have to speak!”

Mo Peilin’s expression faltered. She never expected that the Elder’s temper would explode. “What I mean is...”

“Grandfather, it’s all right. Aunt is, after all, an older relative. It’s all right for her to nag me a little. Previously, that I did not return to the Mo family home was also my wrong,” Ji Nuan spoke up, an appropriate smile on her lips.

Mo Jing Shen also lightly curved his lips, helping her to block the words Mo Peilin still wanted to say. “Aunt, Nuan Nuan’s stomach may have the Mo family’s great-grandchild. You better not scare her.”

After finishing his words, under the shocked gaze of a group of people including the Elder, he held the equally shocked Ji Nuan and led her to sit on a sofa.

His words and actions revealed a natural protectiveness for Ji Nuan. Everything displayed Ji Nuan’s importance clearly. It also showed that Ji Nuan was not only Mrs. Mo by name. Mo Jingshen truly spoiled her rotten and cared for her firmly.

“What did you say earlier?” Elder Mo appeared as though he had just awoken from a dream. Right now, he did not even care about Mo Peilin’s almost twisted expression, directly looking at Ji Nuan’s stomach instead.

Mo Jingshen’s gaze was clear and calm. “When Ji Nuan was young, she suffered a bad cold. Her body is slightly weak. Even if she wants to have a child, she has to go through a period of nourishment. In this half a year, I kept having her rest at the Yu Garden to avoid going outside. Who would have thought our home affairs would become an eyesore for Aunt.”

The Elder approached using his walking stick. Looking at Ji Nuan, he smiled and could hardly close his lips. “This child, if your body is not good, then say it ah. It’s all right that your body is weak. With Jing Shen around, nurse your body for a period, and you will definitely be able to have a healthy baby. Don’t worry. Grandfather will protect you regardless of whether it’s inside or outside of the family. Whatever criticism you hear, ignore them all. Peacefully take care of your health. If you were to be pregnant right now, it would be even better. However, you still have to care for your health! Grandfather’s body is still strong; I can wait!”

Speaking, the Elder glanced back to glare at Mo Peilin. “Ji Nuan has been preparing to have a child and taking care of her body at home, but instead you spoke about her like that! You’re so old already yet all you know is to stir up trouble!”

Mo Peilin had some trouble getting off the stage. Her face looked extremely unhappy, yet she did not dare to casually ridicule the Mo family’s great-grandchildren. After all, this was the Elder’s bottom line.

If she were to touch that bottom line, she most likely could not enter the Mo family’s door anymore.

As for Ji Nuan, she was quiet while occasionally glancing at the man by her side.

Preparing to give birth?

Mo Jingshen was indeed extremely cunning.

His few words alone sufficed to force all the words against her out of the door. After all, her position as Mrs. Mo could already be considered stable. Adding on pregnancy to it, who would dare to offend her. If they were to upset her and cause her to be uncomfortable and thereby harming the Mo family’s great-grandchild, they would be tossed into eighteen levels of hell by the Elder.

But... about preparing for pregnancy...

So many people were looking. At this moment, Ji Nuan was unsure as to where to put her hands. Should she press it against her tummy to act along? Or should she...

She sat with Mo Jingshen on the sofa. The man moved to hold her hand once more, naturally interlocking them and placing their hands on his lap, offering her a suitable solution.
