After the call, Mo Yan felt a wave of inexplicable fatigue. When she returned to the brick house, Luo
Tao was sitting quietly at the table, and the food in front of him had not moved a single bit.
Seeing Mo Yan come in, Luo Tao picked up his chopsticks expressionlessly, picked up a piece of
cabbage, and put it into his mouth.
Mo Yan also sat down. It was hard to hide her emotions, but she was worried that Luo Tao would find
out. She looked at the dry plate of stir-fried vegetables on the table, forced a smile and said, “There’s
only a little bit of vegetables at home. That’s all I can do. Next time I go out, I’ll buy some meat.”
“Okay, no worries.” Luo Tao nodded. There was no change in his expression. In fact, his doctor had
already told him to focus on a light diet. Now, this was exactly what he wanted.
“Luo Tao, have you ever thought about raising some chickens and ducks at home…” Mo Yan bit on her
chopsticks and said a little embarrassedly.
Today, she carefully observed the surroundings of the brick house. There was only a small vegetable
field with some vegetables that were easy to take care of. The surroundings were uncultivated

She had heard rumors that Luo Tao stayed idle at home every day and did nothing, and that he had
absolutely no source of income.
The only money he had might have been left behind by the elders of the Luo family.
That was why she thought that since money was so tight, it would be better to live like a real rural
household and raise some livestock so that they could eat meat. This way, they would at least not go
hungry.
Faced with Mo Yan’s suggestion, Luo Tao was stunned, then he frowned.
He did not take over Luo Tao’s identity to be a rural farmer. This woman wanted to raise chickens and
ducks because she was worried that there would be no meat to eat?
Thinking of this, Luo Tao’s face darkened. He put down the bowl and chopsticks with a cold face and
asked, “Do you need money?”
Mo Yan did not expect that Luo Tao would be able to accurately pinpoint her weakness every time he
asked a question. Her breathing stopped for a moment before she remembered who she was
supposed to be. In front of Luo Tao, she should act like her stepsister, Mo Lian.
“Of course not. I have money…” Mo Yan answered guiltily, her mind still thinking about the 500,000
yuan dowry that her father had promised.
After all, Luo Tao did not know the situation she was in. The matter regarding her mother and brother
had nothing to do with Luo Tao, so she could not cause him pressure with it.
Swallowing a mouthful of rice, Mo Yan adjusted her state of mind and said again, “If you don’t like
chickens and ducks, we don’t have to raise them. I don’t mean anything by it. I’m just asking.”
Seeing through Mo Yan’s embarrassed look, Luo Tao sighed in his heart. Since she was not willing to
take the initiative to ask him for help, then he had no right to interfere in her matters and expose her
identity. He said lightly, “If you want to raise them, do as you wish.”
After getting Luo Tao’s permission, Mo Yan heaved a sigh of relief. A smile that came from the bottom
of her heart appeared on her face. She nodded solemnly and replied, “Okay!”
Luo Tao glanced at her, got up, and left.
Outside of the brick house, Luo Tao took out his cell phone and wrote a message to the number that
had called earlier: The person who married into the Luo family is not Mo Lian. Find out who she is.
At the bottom of the message, there was a photo attached. It was of Mo Yan cutting the vegetables in

The light from the sun shone on her face through the gaps in the thatched roof. The woman’s skin was
so white that it was almost translucent. Her expression was focused and her eyes were filled with
gentleness and indifference. Her waterfall-like long hair was tied loosely behind her back, she looked
like she had lived a peaceful life.
At the time, Luo Tao was lifting weights in the small courtyard. When he saw this scene, he thought she
looked extremely beautiful, so he casually took a picture. He did not expect that it would come in handy
at this moment.
A reply came quickly saying that she was a woman called “Mo Yan.”.

Luo Tao’s eyes were as black as ink. After quietly reading the message, he turned back to look at Mo
Yan, who was in the room. She squatted down as if she was fiddling with something.
“What are you doing?” Luo Tao walked behind her and asked.
Mo Yan was holding a hammer to fix a table leg when she was suddenly shocked by Luo Tao. She was
so shocked that the hammer in her hand was knocked askew. The crooked nail hit the thumb of her left
hand, and bright red blood immediately gushed out.
Mo Yan gasped in pain.
Luo Tao just wanted to ask her what she was doing, he did not expect to scare Mo Yan into hurting
herself. He immediately lowered his voice. “Don’t move..”
