Substitute Bride’s Husband Is An Invisible Rich Man-Chapter 49 - Touched? Being Rash?

Chapter 49 Touched? Being Rash?

In front of Luo Tao were many tall buildings, but he could only think about the small rented house. It was not that he had lost his familiarity with tall buildings, but the warmth of the small house made him yearn for it.

“I have completed the background check on Mo Yan’s company. Hong Jing started four years ago. Its main business is real estate. If there are no drastic changes in the real estate prices in the coming years, the prospects are still good.”

Qin Yuan briefly described what the company did. Hong Jing was not a big company, so Luo Tao probably had no intention of investing in

Luo Tao nodded his head, indicating that he understood.

“Mo Yan is at work today. Get your men to pay attention to her. Don’t let those bugs trip her up in the dark.”

Hearing Luo Tao’s words, Qin Yuan clicked his tongue and agreed.

“Huo Zhen, how much longer are you going to hide? It’s time for you to come back!” Luo Tao did not answer. He put down his wine glass and glanced at Qin Yuan indifferently before preparing to leave.

Seeing that Luo Tao was about to leave, Qin Yuan got up to send him back, but was rejected by Luo Tao. Considering Qin Yuan’s flamboyant personality, who knew what kind of attention-grabbing car he would drive.

When Luo Tao arrived home, it was just past 5:00. Mo Yan would probably be back in a while later..

Looking around, Luo Tao locked his gaze on Mo Yan’s tightly shut door.

Ever since they moved in here, Mo Yan would always leave the door open during the day. She said that it was so that the air could circulate. He wondered why she decided to close the door today.

Luo Tao hesitantly held the doorknob. Unexpectedly, the door wasn’t locked.

What met Luo Tao eyes made him freeze on the spot. Mo Yan had always kept the house neat and tidy. But today, her room was extremely messy. Luo Tao understood the reason. As she was drunk from last night, she woke up late today.

From the clothes piled by the cabinet, it was obvious that she was in a hurry. However, she still made breakfast and left after eating with him.

She was trying her best to maintain this marriage that was full of lies and deceit, Luo Tao thought.

If it were not for them both substituting people in this marriage, the two of them would probably never have crossed paths. Thinking of the person who was originally going to marry Mo Yan and was called ‘Luo Tao’, an indescribable emotion suddenly rose in Luo Tao’s heart.

With a complicated expression, he picked up the clothes on the ground. Suddenly, he saw two pieces of black underwear.

Luo Tao’s breathing stopped. Everything that happened that night when the two of them met for the first time instantly popped into his mind. The girl’s curvaceous figure and the faint fragrance lingering around her neck were still fresh in his memory.

Closing his eyes, Luo Tao took a deep breath and took a few steps forward to pick up her underwear. After picking up the clothes, he quickly walked towards the washing machine and placed the clothes into the dirty laundry basket beside him.

After he was done, Luo Tao exhaled. It was not that he had never seen such items before. Instead, because he grew up in such a high-profile family, he was familiar with these things. However, right now he felt like a teenager with raging hormones.

When he thought of last night, his heart started beating irregularly.

He recalled that last night, when the girl leaned her head on his shoulder, her hair was full of the fragrance of flowers. He knew that this was the smell of her shampoo.

She was very quiet when she was drunk, unlike some people who would make a scene. She was like a tiny sleeping kitten. Even when he carried her out of the car, she did not wake up. She only mumbled a few times and wrapped her arms around his neck.

At that time, he realized that she was not guarded against others when she was drunk. He had wanted to remind her to not get drunk outside again, however, he forgot to remind her in the morning.

Luo Tao did not know how he felt about Mo Yan, but he had a hunch that he would not want to know the answer.

Sitting on the sofa, Luo Tao let out a long sigh. His gaze continued to drift to Mo Yan’s room door.

After hesitating for a long while, Luo Tao pushed open Mo Yan’s door again. There was something that caught his attention just now.

It was a notebook placed on the desk. It looked very exquisite, as if it was used by a girl as her diary.

Luo Tao stood by the desk and hesitated. He had been taught since he was young that reading other people’s notes was not something he should do, but his curiosity towards Mo Yan made him unable to control his actions.

He wanted to know Mo Yan’s opinion of him and her own thoughts about him.

He had married her because he had no other choice at the time. One day he would leave.

But what about her? Was she also extremely reluctant to marry him? Was she just resigned to her fate?

All kinds of questions lingered in his mind. Finally, Luo Tao opened the notebook.
