Substitute Bride’s Husband Is An Invisible Rich Man Novel - Chapter 128

Chapter 128: His Heart

Chen Ya wanted to get Mo Yan into Lin Group’s young master’s bed so bad that she even contacted a woman named Mo Lian.

Both of their surnames were Mo, and she remembered hearing this woman talking bad about Mo Yan with her family.

After contacting Mo Lian, the two of them hit it off. After all, they both had a grudge against Mo Yan.

Chen Ya and her uncle really spent a lot of effort trying to mess with Mo Yan/

Initially, they had planned to sow discord between Mo Yan and Xu Tian in advance, so that Mo Yan would be on guard against Xu Tian. At the same time, Xu Tian would have a sense of distrust towards Mo Yan due to the errors in her data.

However, Mo Yan did not act like they thought she would and alienate Xu Tian because of her suspicion towards Song Yun. This caused all of their subsequent plans to be ruined.

After having a conversation with Mo Lian, Chen Ya called her uncle.

Chen Jin asked Chen Ya about what the Lin family’s young master thought about Mo Yan. After hearing that Chen Ya was able to confirm that the young master was interested in Mo Yan after what happened at the banquet, he told Chen Ya not to act in a hurry. He wanted to see if the young master would take the initiative to contact her.

Sure enough, on the third day after the banquet, Mr. Zhao called her and asked about Mo Yan.

After negotiating, Chen Ya was ready to make a move on Mo Yan. However, for some reason, Mo Yan was nowhere to be found. This made Chen Ya very anxious.

As for Mr. Zhao going to Mo Yan directly today, it seemed that he couldn’t wait any longer.

“To be honest, your proposal isn’t that good. If it weren’t for the additional conditions, I think Lin Group would choose to cooperate with another company. Tonight is your last chance, Ms. Chen.”

…

Mo Yan had just walked downstairs when she noticed the man standing in the dark alley.

She jogged all the way to Luo Tao’s side. Mo Yan was ready to scare him. “Luo Tao!”

However, Luo Tao wasn’t frightened and simply smiled at her.

…

“Are you done with the meeting?” Luo Tao asked.

“No, it will continue in the afternoon.”

Thinking that she would have to wait the whole afternoon to go on a date with Luo Tao, Mo Yan frowned gloomily.

It was said that absence makes the heart grow fonder. This was what Mo Yan was going through. When she wasn’t able to be with Luo Tao, she missed him. When she was finally able to be with him, she only wanted to stay with him.

Holding Luo Tao’s hand, Mo Yan asked, “When did you arrive? Have you been waiting for a long time?”

Unknowingly, the two of them had developed the habit of holding hands.

Luo Tao held Mo Yan’s hand with one hand and handed her a bottle of honey lemon water with the other.

“That was my guess.”

Mo Yan took the honey lemon water and looked at it. “Mo Nuan?”

Mo Nuan was a beverage shop that Mo Yan found online. After reading the comments, she found out that this beverage shop was very famous in Jing City.

Out of curiosity, Mo Yan once took Li Guoguo and Xu Tian there to get drinks.

However, the beverage shop was too crowded. They would have to queue up for an hour for their turn. The three of them decisively gave up.

Mo Yan had jokingly told Luo Tao about this matter. She didn’t expect Luo Tao to remember it.

“So you didn’t just arrive. The queue at Mo Nuan is at least an hour long.” Mo Yan said helplessly.

Luo Tao smiled and patted her head without answering. He recalled when Qin Yuan asked if he wanted to buy a drink for Mo Yan.

Mo Yan used a straw to drink the beverage and took a deep breath.

As expected of a well-known beverage shop. The taste of lemon and honey combined perfectly. It was sweet and sour, refreshing and soothing for the throatt.

Mo Yan secretly glanced at Luo Tao from the corner of her eyes. How did he know that her throat was sore?

Although her throat had almost fully recovered and she could speak normally, she still felt a tingling pain.

The honey lemon water made her throat feel much better.

Luo Tao saw that she had been sneaking glances at him, so he asked what was wrong.

“How did you know that I wanted to drink something? And you even brought me honey lemon water?” Mo Yan asked.

Luo Tao chuckled. “I remember the beverage shop that you talked to me about. After being in a meeting for so many hours, drinking honey lemon water is good for you.”

Mo Yan stuck out her little white teeth and gave Luo Tao a big smile. “You’re too thoughtful! Then I’ll reward you with a mouthful.”

After saying that, Mo Yan brought the cup to Luo Tao’s lips and glanced at the straw that she had already bitten. Luo Tao looked back at Mo Yan with a deeper gaze…
