Ji Nuan caused quite a stir when she appeared at the banquet hall.

Everyone was stunned by her beauty.

But the most important reason was that she showed up with Mo Jingshen as his female companion.

These people belonged to the so-called “Capital Circle,” so many people didn’t know them, but with Mo Jingshen’s influence in the domestic business circle, any circle wanted to draw him in. Many people were sucking up to him. But after all, the people of “Capital Circle” were very proud, even if they wanted to curry favor with Mo Jingshen, they just looked polite but not quite fawning. Although these people were self-important, as soon as they saw Mo Jingshen appear, they couldn’t help coming over and proposing toasts to him.

They didn’t know if Mo Jingshen had ever been married, but they all knew he never brought any women with him when he went out to parties.

They didn’t expect CEO Mo to bring a female companion with him who seemed to be a good match for him.

After all, there were a lot of ladies who pursued Mo Jingshen. It was said that there were several young ladies in the capital who even chased him all the way to Hai City, but they all came back in frustration without even seeing him. No one could imagine what kind of woman he would like, nor could they imagine how well-matched they looked when he actually had a woman standing next to him.

No matter in temperament, appearance, or other aspects, they looked very suitable for each other. When they appeared, they caused a sensation.

Some people curiously inquired about Ji Nuan’s identity, wondering which family she was from, or who had given her to Mo Jingshen. This girl was so lucky as to become CEO Mo’s female companion.

Ji Nuan took the glass handed over by the other party and answered with a graceful smile, “My last name is Ji and I’m the CEO of the MN Group. Nice to meet you.”

The people who approached her to ask who she was were surprised to hear her answer, then remembered the rise of the MN group in London three years ago, and the famous female entrepreneur, Ji Nuan, who was ranked in this year’s Forbes list.

No wonder she could stand shoulder to shoulder with Mo Jingshen. She was here not because of her family background, but because she was that CEO Ji of the MN Group who was very famous in recent years.

Ji Nuan never cared much about the looks of others, and they were all strangers she had just met today. As the night went on, she took the glasses that were handed to her and remained indifferent and graceful. There wasn’t much champagne in each glass, only a sip or two at most. She drank a few drinks and followed Mo Jingshen.

She was so obedient tonight because she knew she represented the MN Group here and shouldn’t act too arrogantly or lowly. Otherwise, these arrogant people of the “Capital Circle” would look down upon her. After all, there were many bosses of domestic well-known enterprises at this party, who could become partners of the MN Group.

On the other hand…

Before arriving at the party, Mo Jingshen reminded her that Beijing was far more complicated than Hai City.

So she was safest with Mo Jingshen.

As the saying went, those who suited their actions to the times were wise. Although she did not want to make up with Mo Jingshen, she’d better stay with him now.

Mo Jingshen was the No.1 big shot in the domestic business circle. Even in the “Capital Circle,” no one dared to mess up with him. With him behind her, she could be safe.

Mo Jingshen took a look at Ji Nuan beside him, who kept her hands on his arm, never letting go.

The man grabbed a piece of cake from a passing waiter’s plate.

“Why are you so obedient?”

“This is a banquet in capital. Neither the atmosphere nor the circle is the same as in Hai City. I don’t know anyone else except you. But if I had a second choice, I would never follow you like this,” Ji Nuan answered honestly and forced a smile.

The man didn’t seem to mind her saying so but just smiled and handed her the cake.

Ji Nuan. “…is it proper to eat on such an occasion?”

He glanced at her. “So ‘The Number One Warmth’ dares not to eat in a banquet?”

Ji Nuan: “…”

She had attended many banquets since she was a child. She had long been used to secretly taking the delicious food and trying them at a corner after having small talks with people. Many times, she got drunk in some corner and was carried home.

Ji Nuan was not a glutton, but she had been attending these parties with Ji Hongwen since childhood. She had long ceased to be interested in these parties and was only interested in passing the time with something to eat, or she would be bored to death by those hypocritical faces.

Ji Nuan curled her lips and didn’t say anymore.

Before coming to the party, Mo Jingshen knew she would be hungry at night, so he asked Xiao Hu to buy some food to put in the car, but Ji Nuan didn’t eat it in the car, and the dessert was left behind.

She didn’t want to get the car dirty, so she didn’t eat the dessert.

But she was really hungry now, especially when she was in her period. In her period, if she was cold, tired, or hungry, she would feel weak.

She took the cake, found a single sofa in the corner, and sat down to eat.

There were people sitting around, chatting about work cooperation and casually drinking

Ji Nuan was brought here by Mo Jingshen. Although she was stunningly beautiful and she was the CEO of the MN Group and didn’t look as cold as Mo Jingshen, those men with big stomachs dared not to hit on her. She just sat there eating and didn’t even look at those men.

Mo Jingshen was talking to a man coming by, who was all smiles and saying something to him. Mo Jingshen’s indifferent expression showed that he was the one who was flattered. People came and went, greeting CEO Mo constantly.
