Chapter 174: We Are Still Considered Newlyweds; There is No Need to Use Distance to Shake Things Up

Ji Nuan's lips were stuffed with a mouthful of egg. She chewed, speaking with her mouth full, "Such an experience is so rare. How do you feel about it?"

"Nothing much to it. It's as though I've gained a daughter." Mo Jingshen picked up a piece of vegetable and stuffed it into her mouth without waiting for her to reply.

"If we were to have a daughter in the future, I fear that you'll spoil her to death."

Mo Jingshen's handsome brows moved up slightly. "Why don't we make one right now?"

Ji Nuan drank a mouthful of soup, swallowing before saying, "Wait for me to return from T City before I consider it."

Arriving at the topic of T City, Mo Jingshen calmly said, "The professor your father recommends in T University is indeed well qualified and has cultivated many capable leaders. But the number of students who seek him in admiration is large. His classes at T University have 40 to 50 students. Are you sure you can adjust to such a learning environment?"

Ji Nuan was not sure when he had investigated the professor. She raised her eyes. "You even have to check on a professor. Are you that worried about me?"

"T City is not close to Hai Cheng. I don't even fully understand the situation there. How can I possibly let you go without worrying." Mo Jingshen saw that she was already full and carelessly placed the cutlery down. He picked up a napkin and wiped her lips.

"But are you agreeing to it right now? Can I go there when that professor starts his new class at T University a few days later?" Ji Nuan's face was full of anticipation.

Mo Jingshen glanced at her. "I can send the most outstanding local or international lecturer here to give you a month of tuition. If one month isn't enough, we can do two. It'll be the same if you learn at home."

Ji Nuan knew Mo Jingshen would not easily allow her to leave for T City.

"No matter how outstanding of a lecturer you find, it wouldn't feel very good if he is only teaching me. Based on my age, if I hadn't studied in America in the past, I would still be in university right now. T University is a top-ranked university within the country. This sort of educational establishment would have a better learning environment."

"That professor of yours teaches for at least three months each semester. Are you sure you want to leave Hai Cheng for three months?" Mo Jingshen's tone was mild.

"It's only for three months. Just treat it as though I've left for T City to further my studies. Don't your company frequently send its people out of the country to further their studies? Three months will pass by in a blink of an eye. Furthermore, isn't long-distance relationships in trend these days? Before our marriage, we've never experienced the joys and sorrows of being separated while in love. This is a good opportunity to experience it." Ji Nuan smiled in amusement.

However, Mo Jingshen coldly sneered. "Who wants to have a long-distance relationship with you? Joys and sorrows? You've really placed too much thought into this!"

Ji Nuan: "... You're really not romantic at all! They say distance makes the heart grow fonder."

Mo Jingshen was expressionless. "From my point of view, we are still considered newlyweds. There is no need to use distance to shake things up."

Ji Nuan was choked by his words. She was about to refute his words but Mo Jingshen no longer planned to further the topic. He used his eyes to indicate for her to stand up. "Stand up. You've just eaten, it's not good for digestion. Walk around the room. I'll go fill the bathtub for you to wash up."

After finishing his words, the man turned and entered the bathroom.

Ji Nuan: "..."

She was not sure when it began, but Mo Jingshen was gradually becoming well trained in taking care of her.

After their evening argument, no, it could not be considered an argument, but Mo Jingshen's stance still appeared ambiguous. She was not sure if he would actually let her go, and his attitude toward this issue was always rather cold.

Ji Nuan's hands were bandaged. When she sat in the tub, her clothes were already removed. She was half-supported and half-carried by Mo Jingshen into the water. She had been too busy in the day, and after receiving a fright from the afternoon delivery, she had been in a constantly alerted state. The moment she entered the warm water, she could not resist her heavy eyelids and gradually became drowsy.

Afterward, she was not sure when she fell asleep while leaning against the edge of the bathtub. However, the occasional caresses against her body made it difficult for her to sleep well. When she opened her eyes from time to time, she saw the man's silhouette. Being by Mo Jingshen's side gave her a sense of security that led her to keep her eyes shut for the remainder of the time.

Mo Jingshen saw her cheeks were reddened from the warm water. The sight of her rosy cheeks against her white skin and her clean and delicate appearance softened his heart beyond measure. His eyes became more gentle, and his lips curved slightly.

"Don't sleep. If you sleep in the tub, you'll catch a cold." Mo Jingshen pinched her cheek. He did not intend to allow her to sleep in the tub like this.

Ji Nuan furrowed her brows and pushed his hand away. She leaned out of the tub, directly leaning on his shoulder.

Mo Jingshen did not force her any further. He washed her body, wrapped her up in a towel, and carried her up from the tub. With his long legs, he took big steps out of the bathroom.

After looking at the woman's tired little face, his brows knitted slightly. "You're so tired. Don't head to the studio tomorrow. Your hand needs some time to recover as well, so stay at home obediently tomorrow."

Ji Nuan snuggled closer to his embrace, speaking in a daze, "I can't... The studio is lacking in staff right now... If I don't go, everyone will be even more tired..."

"You know that the studio is lacking in staff, yet you want to go to T City?"

"That's different... if I really go, Xia Tian will come to help me." Ji Nuan snuggled closer to him again, speaking sweetly, "I really want to go."

"I didn't say I won't let you go. Let your hands heal first." Mo Jingshen carried her to the bed.

Ji Nuan's eyes were shut the whole time as she cuddled into in his arms. She drowsily spoke, "I need to work hard. Harder than I used to."

Mo Jingshen's gaze deepened as he focused on the little woman in his arms. He placed her on the bed.

The moment she touched the bed, Ji Nuan instinctively found a more comfortable position. She then raised her elbow to her nose for a sniff and said, almost as though to flatter him, "Thank you, hubby, for helping me shower. My whole body smells good now..."

For the sake of gaining his agreement, this little woman was constantly trying to think up ways to coax him.

Mo Jingshen snorted, tossing the comforter on her body. "Don't move your hands about. Place them down and quickly go to sleep."

Ji Nuan was really tired. She hugged the comforter in her arms and comfortably fell asleep.

The next day, Ji Nuan woke up to discover it was late. Her originally full schedule in the studio was already cleared.

After making a call, she discovered that Mo Jingshen had transferred someone from his office over to help her manage the work in the studio. After confirming that the initial plans were all proceeding well, Ji Nuan relaxed and laid back down on the bed.

Mo Jingshen, this man, he was usually so quiet but always did everything well. When it came to her affairs, he always arranged everything particularly well.

After resting for a while, she moved to sit up. Her hands instinctively pressed against the bed, but the sudden aching pain caused her to lift her hands up for a look. Seeing her bandaged palms and the small cuts from the blade on her fingers, she recalled the doll she saw yesterday. It immediately brought back some of the fright she experienced yesterday.
