Chapter 234 You Haven't Quit Smoking



However, what troubles him the most is Yang Cheng's personality. He is still unwilling to settle down, even though he is already thirty-four years old.

He doesn't need to worry about anything else, his only fear is that the old man will never see things clearly and will go down this path to ruin. How will the old man bear that?

Qin Yangjin and the others got up one after another to greet the guests, leaving only a few of them at the table. Mo Qing wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but then she remembered that most of the elderly people had a habit of not speaking while eating or sleeping.

She thought about it and swallowed her words.

However, the people at the next table were having too much fun and seemed to be related to Ji Muhan. They even came over to their table and kept calling for Ji Muhan to drink.

Mo Qing was worried that Ji Muhan's personality might embarrass them.

On such a joyous occasion, it would really be awkward if Ji Muhan had a cold expression...

Fortunately, Ji Muhan seemed to be in a good mood today, and she drank the glass of wine that the person who had been egging her on down without saying a word.

It was rare that I didn't give them a cold look.

Mo Qing immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Her beautiful face, which had been tense, looked much better now. Especially when she habitually smiled at Ji Muhan, revealing the dimples on both sides of her mouth, it was truly captivating!

Ji Muhan glanced coldly at the men who were staring blankly at Mo Qing, her expression aloof and her eyes revealing an undisguised chill, as if she were about to drive them all away at any moment.

Fortunately, the men knew to restrain themselves, and the moment Ji Muhan's gaze swept over them, they all looked away from Mo Qing.

However, those people's gazes would always unconsciously drift to Mo Qing, lingering for less than two seconds before they felt a cold wind blow past, making their necks feel very cold.

He immediately looked away and continued to pour wine for Ji Muhan.

Ji Muhan was forced to drink three glasses of wine, and her eyes became slightly unfocused, while the coldness emanating from her body also subsided considerably.

Seeing that those people were going on and on, Mo Qing felt conflicted again.

Previously, the worry was that Ji Muhan wouldn't give him any face; now, the worry is that Ji Muhan will accept all offers. This is already the fourth cup, and although on the surface, he still seems normal...

But she still couldn't rest easy!

She could only secretly nudge his waist, her brows furrowing slightly with concern, and said, "I've seen online that many people who drink and smoke have stomach problems, so you should drink less today. What if you really have stomach issues?"

She hadn't forgotten that Ji Muhan smoked; most smokers don't have good stomachs! She was afraid that Ji Muhan was like that too!

Perhaps Ji Muhan had drunk a few glasses of wine, for her eyes softened somewhat, no longer displaying the cold and ruthless demeanor that usually kept people at arm's length.

When he looked at her, the aloofness in his eyes softened considerably. He gently curved his lips into a smile and couldn't resist reaching out to gently ruffle her hair a few times. The black, shiny, and smooth hair felt wonderful to the touch. He reassured her, "I'm fine."

“No, you haven’t quit smoking,” Mo Qing paused here, then suddenly moved closer to him.

Ji Muhan's eyes flickered slightly. He clearly felt that at that moment, his heartbeat also became disordered without warning, as if a beat had been missed, making him feel flustered and uncomfortable.

She had no idea how much of a reaction her actions had caused Ji Muhan, and she naturally and skillfully used her nose to sniff him all the way down to his chin, stopping a centimeter away from it.

Mo Qing suddenly looked up and met his gaze.

At this moment, Ji Muhan had already skillfully concealed the hint of panic in her expression, and looked back at her with a calm and unwavering gaze.

Mo Qing looked at him with a firm gaze, "You definitely smoked today, you smell like smoke all over you. Don't try to lie to me, my sense of smell is very sharp, my judgment is never wrong."

Although it's faint, you can smell it immediately.

Just like when they first met, he carried a hint of mint and a strong smell of tobacco.

Ji Muhan's gaze deepened as he looked at her. From his angle, the girl's fair and beautiful face was particularly eye-catching, and the collarbone he caught a glimpse of out of the corner of his eye was delicate and striking, making him want to keep looking down...

He honestly confessed, "Yes, I smoked one."

Those people seemed to be drunk, and all they knew was to keep surrounding them and urging him to drink. Mo Qing frowned when she heard this, and without thinking, she snatched the glass from his hand and said boldly, "I'll drink."

Ji Muhan leaned half her body against the back of the chair, her left hand on the armrest, and turned to look at her.

A cryptic smile played on his lips, which he completely concealed with his left index finger, so Mo Qing and the others couldn't see the fleeting glint in his eyes.

I don't know what was going on with him, but he neither stopped her nor said anything; he just stared at her without uttering a word.

Mo Qing stood up gracefully, without the slightest embarrassment, and smiled at the group of relatives and friends who had come to celebrate, saying, "I'm sorry, his stomach isn't feeling well. I apologize on his behalf. I'll drink this glass first."

"..." A heroine among women!

Meanwhile, Qin Yangcheng, who was on the other side, naturally took in the situation and couldn't help but give Ji Muhan a thumbs up in his heart.

As always, she was cunning and scheming. By simply blocking the drink, even the most clueless person would know about the relationship between Mo Qing and Ji Muhan. This also allowed her to assert her dominance and deter any men who were secretly plotting against her.
