Chapter 89 - The Person He Cherished

Chapter 89: The Person He Cherished

After hanging up the phone, Luo Tao gazed out of the window with a serious gaze. He was bound to go to the capital city with Mo Yan. Not only for Mo Yan’s safety, but also because his time was up.
Luo Tao’s heart was somewhat troubled. He had not made a final decision yet.
“Luo Tao? Luo Tao?” Mo Yan wiped her hair and called out his name twice.
“What’s wrong?” Luo Tao came back from the balcony.
Mo Yan walked to his side and sniffed. “Did you smoke?”!!
Mo Yan knew that Luo Tao smoked because occasionally when he came home, he would have a faint smell of cigarettes on him. However, Luo Tao had never smoked at home before, so she did not know what was wrong with him today.
“Yes.”
“Is there something wrong?” Mo Yan felt that Luo Tao seemed to have something on his mind.
Luo Tao looked at Mo Yan. Her long hair was wet, and the water dripped down her neck and slowly slid into the collar of her pajamas, causing Luo Tao’s eyes to darken.
“Do you still remember the night before your brother came?”
With Luo Tao’s reminder, the memories that Mo Yan had thrown out of the window instantly returned to her mind.
“You, how can you still remember?”
“Of course I have to remember. I have regretted it for a long time.”
Luo Tao held Mo Yan in his arms. Mo Yan’s long hair, which was full of moisture, was also wet on his face.
“Luo Tao.”
Mo Yan called Luo Tao’s name in a soft voice.
Not only was Luo Tao longing for her, she was also looking forward to Luo Tao taking a step closer.
However, just as Mo Yan was waiting for Luo Tao’s kiss to land on her lips, Luo Tao suddenly took a step back.
“Let me hug you to sleep tonight! I won’t do anything.”
Luo Tao’s voice was very gentle, so Mo Yan couldn’t say anything to reject him.
In Mo Yan’s bedroom, Mo Yan wanted to face Luo Tao, but was rejected by him. He wrapped his arms around her waist from behind.
Being hugged by Luo Tao, Mo Yan felt like she was being treasured.
“Luo Tao, what’s wrong? I feel like something is wrong with you.”
With her back facing him, Mo Yan asked. Luo Tao’s hot chest pressed against her body, causing Mo Yan’s heart to race.
“Nothing, I’m just wondering if we will continue living happily like this.”
Luo Tao’s words stopped Mo Yan. Mo Yan’s expression froze, and her heart started to race.
Continue living? Will they? She was just a substitute. Mo Lian was supposed to marry Luo Tao, and Mo Lian was supposed to be loved and cared for by Luo Tao. Thinking of this, Mo Yan felt like her heart was being grabbed by a big hand.
She did not want to admit that she was jealous because she did not have the right. However, she could not control herself and wanted Luo Tao for herself.
If one day Luo Tao found out about her identity and did not want her, or if Mo Lian found out about Luo Tao’s good intentions and wanted to snatch Luo Tao back, where would she go?
Just thinking about it made Mo Yan almost cry.
Mo Yan shut herself in the blanket, so that her voice would not sound so strange.
“Luo Tao, if one day you discover that I’ve lied to you, lied to you about a very important matter, what would you do?”
After a long time, Mo Yan did not receive an answer from Luo Tao.
She felt like she was a condemned prisoner waiting to be hanged, hoping that the ruler would grant her a little favor and let her finish her sentence quickly.
“What kind of very important matter? Do you mean cheat on me?”
Luo Tao’s voice carried a hint of a smile. Mo Yan knew that he was teasing her again. She turned to face Luo Tao and said angrily, “No! I won’t cheat on you! I’m loyal in this marriage, and… I’m loyal to you.”
Mo Yan’s last four words were very gentle. After saying that, she buried her face into Luo Tao’s firm chest.
Luo Tao did not tease her this time. The steady heartbeat coming from his chest hit Mo Yan’s eardrums, making her feel at ease.
“If I lied to you, what would you do?” Mo Yan heard Luo Tao ask her.
“Lie to me?”
Repeating his question, Mo Yan thought for a moment and said, “If you dare to lie to me, you will be punished to pick me up from work every day. You will also be punished to learn how to cook, and you will be punished to earn a lot of money and give it to me.”
Luo Tao rested his chin on Mo Yan’s head and laughed lightly, “Won’t you be angry? Won’t you ignore me?”
Mo Yan thought about what Luo Tao had said and shook her head, “No, I’m afraid I won’t be able to bear to part with you.”
Luo Tao was touched. As he hugged Mo Yan tighter and tighter, Luo Tao thought that perhaps he would really do as Mo Cheng wished and not cross the line.
Because the more you cared about someone, the less you wanted to hurt them. He was afraid that Mo Yan wouldn’t be able to accept his identity, so before he confessed, he would not touch Mo Yan again.
