Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

When she returned to Hai City several days ago, the people in the company did not tell her about the situation. She didn’t know until now that when she was not around, the Sheng Corporation in Hai City had been attacking MN Group.

Ji Mengran’s studio started the attack by launching a concessionary land purchase project and underselling a couple of really good plots. Sheng Yihan invested a large sum of money, and advertisements for this project were everywhere, which attracted a lot of attention and made those plots that MN Group put for sale unsought.

However, Ji Nuan could attract real estate practitioners’ attention back by lowering the prices. After all, the current real estate price in Hai City was the highest in the last three years and such an opportunity must not be wasted.

 But then the Sheng Corporation began to paly dirty and instigated her competitors to make trouble for her.

 As a result, Ji Mengran’s studio was booming this month, and even their business partners gained good performance. Everyone could tell, with this developing speed, Ji Mengran would soon be able to establish her own company.

Although she didn’t have a bigwig like Mr. Zand help her, she had already gained a place in Hai City and had the Sheng Corporation behind her, if she could gain enough financing, her studio’s performance would be close to the current level of MN Group.

Although MN Group had gained certain popularity in the international Chinese community, it was moved to China from London and hadn’t gained a firm footing in Hai City. If Ji Mengran kept attacking it in the real estate industry, no one knew what would happen to it.

 So at this critical time, Ji Nuan stayed in the company and paid close attention to the trends of the real estate industry in Hai City. She hadn’t left the company for a week, nor returned to the Ji family to deal with those personal matters.

 Just a week after Ji Nuan returned to Hai City, the online and paper media in Hai City suddenly released a piece of news.

 The news was all kinds of gossips about the President of MN Group Ji Nuan from anonymous sources, and the title of the news was quite eye-catching: [Shock! The Forbes-listed female entrepreneur Ji Nuan was actually ex-wife of Shine Group’s boss!]

The media exposed the past of Ji Nuan when she was still the “Number One Warmth” of the upper society of Hai City and broke the news that Ji Nuan, the so-called eldest daughter of Ji Hongwen, actually had no blood tie with Ji Hongwen and her biological father remained unknown. The Ji family didn’t make it public just to save face.

 The news also exposed the marriage of Ji Nuan and Mo Jingshen, describing how Ji Nuan married Mo Jingshen but divorced him and went abroad for unknown reasons three years later.

 Although what the headline emphasized was the past marriage of Ji Nuan and Mo Jingshen, but the news’ contents skimmed over this matter and focused on Ji Nuan’s personal life.

For example, why Mo Jingshen divorced Ji Nuan before he went to the US to take over Shine; how close Ji Nuan was to the famous businessman Mr. Zand when she was in Britain; how Ji Nuan hugged, smiled at, took hands with, and even kissed almost every single man she met in social circumstances when she tried to set up her company in London; Although Ji Nuan just kissed their cheeks, which was a part of etiquette in Western culture, the photos were snapped at odd angles and looked as if she stuck to those men and went for a hug or an affair.

 Every single word of this news was taunting the way Ji Nuan made success, claiming that she sold her body to countless men and seduced countless men in social circumstances. By selling her body, she gained investments and obtained the upper hand in bidding and negotiation in all sorts of ugly ways.

More importantly, of the over two dozen photos, only four or five showed Ji Nuan’s frontal face, which was secretly snapped in the dinner parties or social occasions where Ji Nuan was present. The other photos only showed a woman’s back or profile and led people to believe that it was Ji Nuan.

 The woman in the photos that only showed her back or profile was dressed in skimpy clothes, being hugged and kissed by men in vaguely lit places, or sitting on a man’s lap, the straps of her dress slipping down, looking as if she was about to be undressed in public without any sense of shame. Those photos showed no frontal face but the woman in them looked just like Ji Nuan, successfully labeling Ji Nuan as the “Number One Courtesan” of Hai City and leading people to believe that her achievements these years were only the results of sex deals.

 Soon, all business partners of MN Group were in an uproar and many of them called MN Group to complain. The wives of some bosses of those companies suspected their husbands to have an affair with Ji Nuan and cursed her on the Internet. MN Group was also chaotic. Its PR department was busy receiving complaint calls and the company was crowded with journalists and curious onlookers.

 Even when MN Group held its regular meeting, some journalists rushed in and waited at the door of the meeting room, but Ji Nuan didn’t show up.

 When MN Group was a mess and the public was condemning Ji Nuan, demanding MN Group to get out of Hai City and go back to London, Ji Nuan was in her apartment in Yuehu Bay.

 As soon as that news was released, she came home from the company, so no one knew her whereabouts, including the staff of her company.

Ji Nuan locked herself at home like a hermit since the news was released, ignoring the public cloudburst. Now she sat on the balcony, looking at the Yuehu Lake downstairs and quietly drinking milk. No one knew why Ji Nuan remained silent to the malicious news, which was not her style, and some people guessed maybe the photos and news were true, so she had no cheek to explain because she couldn’t explain them at all.

 As Mo Jingshen’s ex-wife and a lady of note in Hai City, she actually gained a place in the business circle in such a disgusting and dirty way! Within two days, everyone who had read the news took her as a disgrace.
