Ji Nuan had already stepped toward the conference room door. Her expression was startled as she faltered by the door.

That day, the issue she should not have been concerned about, the suspicion and mistrust that should not have existed, when she really wanted to ask if she had left any marks on his life…

Right now, was this considered a form of response?

Was she important?

At the same time, Ji Nuan felt a familiar gaze land on her back. She stood in her position, aware that this was the principal’s meeting room and that there were many important figures present. She composed herself and took quick steps out of the room.

Feng Ling stood outside, waiting for her. When she saw Ji Nuan appear, she immediately approached, using her gaze to ask if the person inside was Mr. Mo. Ji Nuan nodded and headed downstairs.

The sky had already turned dark. T City’s street lights were flickering on, and the lights in T University were a distance away.

Ji Nuan said that she wanted to be alone for a while, so Feng Ling stood a distance away from her to not disturb her. Watching as Ji Nuan paced back and forth on the campus grounds, Feng Ling could not understand what she was thinking about.

After around an hour, the sky gradually darkened. In the school building, only the highest floor was still lit.

Ji Nuan saw the lights in the conference room on the highest floor turning off. She abruptly took quick steps to enter through the back door and saw several school heads arriving downstairs. When she saw Professor Lin at the back, she approached to ask, “Professor, has the meeting ended?”

“It’s already past eight, you haven’t returned to the dormitory?” Professor Lin looked at her in astonishment. “The wind is strong today. You should head back soon to rest, don’t catch a cold.”

“Has everyone left?” Ji Nuan did not see Mo Jingshen’s silhouette.

“The investor has already left. I stayed back with several other school heads to extend the meeting by several minutes. Right now, there’s no one left in the meeting room. Why? Who are you looking for?” Professor Lin considered her for a moment. “I’m considered old friends with your father, but because I’ve been busy in recent years, I don’t understand much about your Ji family. President Mo is also from Hai City, could the both of you…”

“He has already left?” Ji Nuan knitted her brows. She did not refute Professor Lin’s guess, silently agreeing.

Professor Lin took another look at her. He thought back to when Mo Jingshen specially requested to take a look at the information on corporate management classes at T University and understood that it wasn’t a coincidence.

So, it had been for Ji Nuan, this brat.

Professor Lin smiled. “He hasn’t left for too long. If you wish to chase now, he should probably be by the school gates. Right now, there is a large traffic jam outside the gates. His car shouldn’t have left yet.”

After finishing his words, Professor Lin felt that he had said enough and left.

He had no right to ask too much about the young people’s affairs. But because it was Ji Nuan’s presence that allowed T University to receive such a significant investment, this could be considered a great service on Ji Nuan’s part to T University and its one-hundred-year-old library.

Ji Nuan’s lagged for two to three seconds before she abruptly turned around.

She ran all the way to the school gates to see the cars parked by the side of the road; however, she did not know which car was Mo Jingshen’s.

He did not bring the Ghost to T City. Mo Corporation had its own branch company in T City, but she did not know which was the company’s car, or if he had prepared a car to use here. She had previously seen him driving an off-road vehicle but, right now, that car was not present.

Ji Nuan looked out toward the parking lot outside the school and finally could not hold in the urge. She picked up her phone and dialed Mo Jingshen’s number.

The call went through but was not picked up after a long time; finally, it dropped on its own.

Ji Nuan also did not catch the sound of a nearby ringtone.

Which meant that Mo Jingshen must have already left.
