Chapter 728 (1/2)

Ji Nuan stared back at her reflection; she was dressed like a student of the Republic of China. Although she was beautiful, and Mrs. Wan Zhu was complimenting her endlessly by the side, Ji Nuan still found herself to be too thin.

She touched her own waist and came to a resolute decision in her heart; from today onwards, she would have at least two bowls of rice, one plate of vegetables, and one plate of meat for every meal.

As she considered this, she headed out of the changing room to look for the make-up artist.

There was a small balcony behind the changing room and occasionally, there would be employees smoking there. Ji Nuan knew that Mo Jingshen’s changing room was not too far away and subconsciously turned to look in that direction.

To her surprise, on the small balcony under the sunshine, was the back view of a tall and broad-shouldered man. The sight was slightly foreign, yet very familiar.

A deep-colored long coat made of thick, heavy material was hanging against his shoulders. Its collar was lined with fur and it accentuated his status. Under the sunshine, the animal hair had its own distinctive luster. He also wore a similarly colored wide brim hat over his black hair. A light-colored scarf hung from his neck down to his waist and it swayed with his movements.

She watched as he turned slightly to the side; the deep gray, three-piece suit gave him a charming silhouette. The graceful, bronze buttons were a subtle touch and under the doting love of the afternoon rays, the antique design crafted on it could be clearly seen.

He tugged his black leather gloves up and a tinkling noise came from the lighter in his hands. He then lowered his head and lit up a white cigarette.

Ji Nuan rarely saw Mo Jingshen smoke.

She recalled when she first returned from London, during the several times she saw him, he seemed to be smoking a lot. Afterward, he gradually stopped again.

From what she heard from Shen Mu, Mo Jingshen did not particularly enjoy smoking. He only did so every so often.

However, in the three years she was absent, his smoking habit had been quite strong.

The lighter was clearly a prop for the photoshoot. An employee must have seen his outfit and felt that he had to offer the great boss a cigarette. Thus, the great boss casually received it and as he waited for her to change, he decided to light it.

At this moment, she was watching Mo Jingshen’s side profile as he smoked.

The movement of his Adam’s apple as he lowered his head.

His wrists uncovered by his white, dress shirt sleeves and his black gloves.

His tightly buttoned shirt collar and his fingers as he gently loosened his necktie.

This was a fatal scene; it fired several shots against her heart, leaving her dead on the scene.

Ji Nuan was lost in her thoughts and accidentally bumped against the cleaning tools leaning against the changing room door. The tools fell with a clatter and broke her mental image of throwing herself at the great boss.

Mo Jingshen seemed to have heard the commotion on her side. He stubbed out the remaining half of the cigarette and narrowed his eyes in her direction.

When he turned back, his coat and scarf formed a charming silhouette. The image of his powerful figure slammed against her heart. Under the shadow of his wide brim hat and his black hair, his gaze was distant. His rare appearance also made him appear less restrained.

Right before her eyes, Boss Mo had become a big shot from the Republic of China’s business world. It was as though a mistake in the world had caused the Mo Jingshen that belonged to her to be replaced with this man.

The sight of him easily stole her soul away.
