Jiang Moxi left the private room and went straight to the eighth floor, hoping out of sight would be out of mind.
But coincidentally, at that ti, the manager inford her, "Miss Jiang, the guests in Room 8978 have requested your presence specifically."
Jiang Moxi was puzzled, wondering if it could be Qin Shuang causing trouble again.
However, Jiang Moxi thought this might actually be a good opportunity to deal with Qin Shuang while Yu Dingding was not at work.
To her surprise, the guests in Room 8978 were not Qin Shuang but a group of high-society young ladies.
The woman leading them looked sowhat familiar.
Just as Jiang Moxi entered with drinks in hand, that woman, holding a glass of drink and seething with anger, ca up to her, trying to splash the drink on Jiang Moxi’s face.
But Jiang Moxi reacted quickly, grabbing the woman’s wrist and pouring the drink over her head along with her hand.
The mont the drink fell, it drenched the woman’s carefully styled fluffy hair, and the ice cubes clattered down on her forehead.
Caught off guard by this sudden change, the woman scread, "How dare you do this to ! You slut, taking my man wasn’t enough, you dare treat like this!"
Hearing this, Jiang Moxi finally recognized her as Liu Nan, the leading lady who had perford a break-up act with Si Lin on the street before.
"I have nothing to do with Young Master Si; he asked for my help to block his admirers," Jiang Moxi imdiately clarified.
But Liu Nan, in the heat of rage, wouldn’t listen to a word.
"You still dare to argue! Taken is taken, there’s no need to lie; do you think of as a fool to deceive?"
Liu Nan had seen with her own eyes that day, Si Lin looked at Jiang Moxi with adoration in his eyes, which made her believe that Si Lin was indeed cheating.
Now that Jiang Moxi was still outright denying it, was it not only because she saw that Liu Nan had brought more people and was afraid of being dealt with?
Right then, Liu Nan’s friends saw Jiang Moxi turn the tables and splash the drink on Liu Nan’s head, putting her in an awkward position, and they imdiately surrounded Jiang Moxi.
Seeing Jiang Moxi still arguing, one of the friends suggested, "No need to waste words with her. Since she likes to flaunt herself in front of n so much, let’s strip her clothes off and make a video for everyone to see!"
The rest imdiately agreed to the suggestion, and they swiftly pounced on Jiang Moxi...
*
Si Lin ca to the eighth floor tonight to spend, because yesterday after he posted about Jiang Moxi on his social circle, soone in the circle inford him that Jiang Moxi was recently working on the eighth floor of Night Color.
Although he vehently denied to himself liking Jiang Moxi, that bad woman, he couldn’t control the desire to see her.
Thus, as soon as he arrived on the eighth floor, he called for the manager, "Where’s Jiang Moxi? Have her bring two bottles of Romanée-Conti."
The manager could only inform him, "We do have Romanée-Conti, but Miss Jiang was just called away by another private room."
Si Lin’s eyes narrowed slightly, "Who called her away?"
He thought it probably wasn’t Fu Youhan, since the ninth floor was currently hosting a welco and cleaning party for Fu Wangning, and Fu Youhan would definitely be there.
Previously Ye Chen had also invited Si Lin, but due to Si Ruo’s relationship, Si Lin couldn’t find it in him to like Fu Wangning, so he had refused.
So, who exactly called Jiang Moxi away?
Competing for her?
Seeing the dark look on Si Lin’s face, the manager imdiately disregarded custor privacy and directly inford him, "Miss Liu."
Si Lin’s eyes narrowed inquiringly, "Liu Nan?"
"Yes, yes, Liu Nan Miss," the manager said.
If it were anyone else, Si Lin wouldn’t be so worried.
But Liu Nan was the only daughter of the Liu Family, notorious in the circle for being capricious and willful.
So Si Lin guessed that Liu Nan had co to cause trouble for Jiang Moxi.
He imdiately asked the manager, "Which private room are they in?"
"8978."
As soon as the manager’s voice trailed off, Si Lin imdiately got up and headed for box 8978.
Seeing Si Lin hurry off like that, the manager also worried if Jiang Moxi might be in danger, and was even more afraid of how to explain to Third Master Fu if Jiang Moxi were hard. So, he quickly followed.
But neither of them could ever have imagined the scene that would greet them upon opening the door to box 8978.
A group of well-known daughters of wealthy families were half-crouched in front of a low table, writing furiously, completely unaware of Si Lin and the manager’s arrival.
Jiang Moxi was sitting on a sofa, reading to them: "The elder Subhūti was in the assembly. Then rising from his seat, and uncovering his right shoulder..."
Liu Nan thought hard and could not rember how to write the word "uncovering," so she hastily asked the girl beside her.
"How do you write ’uncovering’?"
Her companion shook her head; her school performance was just as poor as Liu Nan’s, both having attended university due to their family connections and money.
Until now, so of those complicated characters still escaped her mory.
Unable to write it herself, Liu Nan could only look imploringly at Jiang Moxi.
Jiang Moxi then wrote the characters for "uncovering" on a piece of paper nearby.
Thus, Liu Nan and her companions quickly craned their necks to see the characters, then resud their vigorous writing...
There was no choice!
Because Jiang Moxi said, if they didn’t copy the Diamond Sutra five tis tonight, they wouldn’t be allowed to go ho.
As for why they had to listen to Jiang Moxi, it was because they couldn’t beat her in a fight and were thrashed until they were battered and bruised.
The manager, upon seeing the scene unfolding inside the box, was almost agape with shock.
Frequent contact with these pampered daughters of wealthy families ant he knew just how delicate and bratty they could be; sotis asking them to even pick up a pen and write was akin to torture.
Yet here were these delicate ladies, now writing furiously in a place of Night Color, transcribing the Diamond Sutra.
However, after his initial surprise, Si Lin suddenly began to applaud for Jiang Moxi.
The applause instantly drew the attention of everyone else in the box, including Jiang Moxi and Liu Nan.
"Liu Nan..." It was as if what Liu Nan saw wasn’t an ex-boyfriend but a savior, her eyes brimming with tears, hoping Si Lin could rescue her from this dire strait.
But as soon as she spoke, Jiang Moxi’s cold eyes fell on her: "Don’t want to write anymore?"
Liu Nan imdiately beca flustered: "I’ll write! I’m writing!"
As her voice faded, she buried her head and resud writing furiously.
At this mont, Si Lin approached Jiang Moxi and asked her, "What’s going on here?"
"It’s trouble you brought on !" said Jiang Moxi.
Si Lin stretched his neck to look at the characters Liu Nan had written, which hurt his eyes. He quickly looked at Jiang Moxi: "So you’re punishing them by making them copy the Diamond Sutra?"
"It’s not punishnt. Their thoughts are too filthy. I just want to help purify their minds," she said.
These were girls who would easily strip off clothes and take videos to ruin others’ reputations; it was inevitable to teach them a lesson.
But Si Lin, observing Jiang Moxi’s profile, said with a faint smile, "I never thought of such an ingenious way to tornt people before."
What he was marveling at inside, though, was how cute Jiang Moxi could be for coming up with such a thod to tornt people?
But Jiang Moxi was not in a good mood today, sowhat too lazy to deal with Si Lin: "You keep an eye on them. They can only go ho after each has copied the Diamond Sutra five tis."
"And you? Are you going back?" Si Lin asked.
"Yeah." Jiang Moxi nodded. Even after a fight today, her mood hadn’t improved much, so she still wanted to go ho and lie down.
But as soon as Si Lin heard she was leaving, he was no longer willing to stay either: "Then I’m not staying here to monitor them."
"It’s trouble you caused. If you don’t monitor them, who will?"
After dropping these words, Jiang Moxi left without looking back.
Si Lin watched her walk away without a backward glance, feeling that even the strands of her hair seed to spell out "enticing" with her cold indifference.
