Chapter 78: Tear the White Lotus
Ji Mengran's expression froze.
All of her deliberate words were put on the table in an instant because of Mo Jingshen's words that were neither light nor light.
She bit her tongue and turned her eyes to Shen Heru to ask for help, but Shen Heru didn't look at her, just sat beside Ji Hongwen and acted like it had nothing to do with her.
At the beginning, it was agreed not to involve her, but Ji Mengran felt tight in her chest, so she had to endure it and just stared at the gift box. Anyway, with this thing, Ji Nuan couldn't get rid of it!
"In my opinion, let's open the gift box and take a look!" Ji Mengran insisted.
Ji Nuan smiled and stretched out his hand calmly, but as soon as his hand was placed on the gift box, he suddenly caught the sight of Mr. Mo.
This is because the old man saw that Ji Nuan had a plan. In case she really couldn't come down on this occasion, he warned her with his eyes not to open it. If it is really that thing, don't say that he looks unlucky, many famous people present are a little superstitious, if it is really Ji Mengran saying something, Ji Nuan really can't find a way to go down.
Ji Nuan threw a reassuring smile at the old man, put his hand on the box lightly, and the expensive red sandalwood gift box was opened instantly.
Ji Mengran, who stood up just now because of excitement, suddenly trembled fiercely when she saw the things that were placed right in the middle.
how can that be?
She clearly gave the things to Ji Nuan before, but actually... it's not...
Seeing the contents in the box, Ji Hongwen breathed a sigh of relief in an instant, but then frowned in a blink of an eye, and looked at Ji Mengran, who had been petrified, with cold eyes.
This damn girl! It really lost the face of their Ji family!
"Grandpa, a farce made you laugh." Ji Nuan laughed: "When Jingshen and I went to buy gifts, Jingshen said that you have a preference for ancient chess. This is Gu Shiyan, a famous master in the late Tang Dynasty. The ancient chess manuals left behind have been handed down from generation to generation, and have been carefully treasured in the palaces of successive dynasties, and they are still well preserved. I hope you like it.”
The old man Mo was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't believe it. When he recovered, he reached out and took it with a look of joy, opened it and turned it over, nodding happily while looking at it: "You really have a heart, this book is indeed what I wrote before. I've been wanting to collect it for years, but I've been trying to get a good thing! I didn't expect to actually get it before I was alive!"
Mo Jingshen raised his hand, pressed it lightly, and let Ji Nuan, who had been standing by the table, sit down. When he spoke, his voice was the same as before: "The chess manual was specially requested by Nuan Nuan for you, and it took a lot of effort."
The old man nodded happily, as if his eyes were inseparable from the chess book in his hand, and he kept looking carefully at page by page, obviously it was really precious.
Ji Nuan quietly took Mo Jingshen's hand under the table and whispered, "It's clear that you won, so how can I ask for it?"
Mo Jingshen's voice was low-pitched, but gentle and clear: "Everyone is yours, and what I won is of course yours."
Ji Nuan: "..."
Invisibly, it seems to have been slapped hard again.
Ji Mengran, who was sitting across the table, was pale and panicked. She wanted to say that Ji Nuan was clearly holding a chessboard, but now she was being looked at by all kinds of eyes, and her father's warning eyes to her. Looking up at Ji Nuan, for a while, I don't know how to make this thing go.
What should she do now...
The people sitting are very shrewd, and everyone can see how deliberately she just wanted to pull Ji Nuan into the water. How can she explain it so that it is reasonable?
It seems... what kind of explanation doesn't make sense...
"Mengran." Ji Nuan's voice suddenly came, with some coldness, and she called her in public.
Ji Mengran raised his eyes sharply.
She is now both afraid and hateful, and she can't hide the fear in her eyes.
Ji Nuan's tone was slow and prolonged, but with a coldness that could not be ignored: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding between us. It's your first time in the Mo family. Why don't you go to the back yard with me? Let's chat?"
Ji Mengran's face turned pale.
After so long, she already knew that Ji Nuan was no longer the one who let her fool around.
In addition to the Ji Mo family, there are also many famous people sitting, which is really a big loss!
Ji Mengran lowered her head and said nothing, but didn't want to go with her.
Ji Hongwen said angrily: "Why don't you go out with your sister? Want to keep stumbling in front of so many people? Your sister is enough to give you face!"
The old man Mo also said coldly: "Indeed, I think there seems to be some misunderstanding between your sisters. This younger sister framed her sister in public. This is the first time in my life that I have seen the old man. If you have anything to say, you can say it later."
Ji Mengran's expression became more flustered, her eyes flickered, she didn't dare to look at them, and she didn't dare to look at Ji Nuan: "I...I just..."
At first, Ji Nuan didn't plan to get into a deadlock with Ji Mengran so soon. First, she didn't find a suitable opportunity, and secondly, she wanted to take the opportunity to find out all Ji Mengran's ways.
But now this opportunity is very appropriate. Since Ji Mengran doesn't want to have a better life, don't blame her for being rude.
...
Ji Mengran followed Ji Nuan out of the banquet hall, Ji Nuan was speechless all the way, Ji Mengran followed behind, drumming secretly in her heart.
Ji Nuan turned around when he arrived at a place where there were fewer people in the Mo's backyard.
Ji Mengran raised his head and stared at her at the same time, and said as if to seize the opportunity: "Sister, I'll tell you straight, what happened today was indeed my intention, but it was also because you..."
"Snapped!"
The extremely loud applause, crisp and sudden, shocked the servants who passed by in the distance.
Ji Mengran was so shocked that he couldn't even make an expression.
I can't believe that Ji Nuan actually slapped her.
What's even more unbelievable is that the person who beat her has been letting her down since she was a child, hurting her Ji Nuan!
Ji Mengran raised her hand to cover her face, so shocked that the muscles on her face froze.
After a long time, she screamed in disbelief: "Ji Nuan! You actually hit me—"
"Snapped!"
Another neat slap was slapped hard, and Ji Mengran's face turned to one side.
Ji Nuan's icy voice had a frost-like coldness: "It's you who was beaten! Faceless and skinless, endlessly courting death!"
Ji Mengran screamed again: "Ji Nuan!"
She has never been beaten in her life!
But she was beaten by Ji Nuan! Hit it twice!
Ji Mengran trembled angrily: "Ji Nuan! What I hate is your self-righteous arrogance! Why do you have to stand on my head everywhere, why can you..."
Ji Nuan sneered, raised his hand and slapped again.
Ji Mengran didn't expect that there would be a third blow. She was stunned, and her whole face froze on the expression she had just spoken.
