Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 505

Chapter 505: Marry a substitute
Qi Yongrui raised his head and looked at Luo Huian, who was standing in front of him. When he saw her, his eyes widened slightly. For a few seconds, he couldn’t believe that Luo Huian really came to look for him.

He thought that she was going to leave him alone for acting like a fool. But she came to look for him?

“Hu—”

“Luo Huian!” Before Qi Yongrui could say another word, Long Zhong wriggled over and bit Luo Huian on the thigh. With his mouth full of the fabric of Luo Huian’s pants, he said to her, “You—you actually left us to starve here. Do you think we have three stomachs like cows? That we won’t starve even if you leave us without food and water for more than three days?”

Luo Huian calmly glanced at Long Zhong and shook him off. She said to him, “Is it because of me that you are trapped in this place? Be thankful that I came here. Or else you would have turned this guy’s meal and buried somewhere in the back of this village.”

She pointed to Gu Qinfan before throwing down the bag that she was holding and rolling her arm in a circle. “Damn, it hurts so much.” She had to carry these many packages from all the way to the town to the village and because she was riding Xiao Hei, she could only hold them tightly lest they fall.

Now her arm was sore and she felt annoyed with how stiff it felt.

Long Zhong didn’t pay attention to her cursing. All of his attention was on the many food bowls that Luo Huian had brought and he said to her, “Come on, open our ropes so that we can eat.”

“Not worried about being caught?” Luo Huian arched her brow as she questioned, causing Long Zhong to fall silent. But a second later he parted his lips and said, “You are so careful; certainly you must have already taken care of everything?”

Luo Huian only smiled when she heard the words of the little mer. She then crouched down and started undoing Qi Yongrui’s ropes.

“Don’t move around too much; the ropes are tied too tightly. If you cut your skin, then don’t blame me,” she told Qi Yongrui. Though her voice was filled with impatience, her concern was raw.

Qi Yongrui looked sideways and stared at the charming face which could enchant just anyone as long as they stared at Luo Huian for more than three seconds. He felt his heartbeat go wild and turned his face away but even after looking away, he didn’t feel his heartbeat getting any calmer.

Every stroke, every trace, her warm breath against his skin—Qi Yongrui could feel every single thing. It was as if his entire body had come alive. He wanted his heart to stop beating so wildly but he couldn’t.

“Alright, it is done.” Luo Huian pulled back and turned to look at Qi Yongrui just in time for the mer to turn and look at her. Their lips brushed ever so slightly, causing a subtle spark to light up.

The two of them turned to look away at the same time.

And Long Zhong, who watched everything, felt disgusted. He glared at the two lovebirds in front of him and said, “Can we please do this after I have eaten something? I really cannot do this on an empty stomach.”

“I want food, not dog food, alright?”

Luo Huian cleared her throat. She suppressed her thumping heart and calmed herself down. Walking over to where Long Zhong was lying, she undid the ropes on his hands before walking over to Gu Qinfan and handing him the tarts that she had made.

“I don’t know which desserts you like, so I made these tarts,” she said to the mer. There was no oven and no fancy ingredients and she could only make tarts.

However, for Gu Qinfan, who had never eaten anything so delicious before, it was good enough. He thanked Luo Huian and started eating. In the middle of his little feast, he sensed someone staring at him and raised his head to look at Qi Yongrui.

When he saw the jealousy in the eyes of the mer, he was speechless.

Was this necessary? Even though Luo Huian was making egg tarts for him, she was his wife. He could eat such things at any time, right?

Wrong.

Qi Yongrui looked down at the food bowl that Luo Huian had brought for him and suddenly the braised beef no longer smelt as fragrant as before. He sighed and then pursed his lips before continuing with his meal. No matter what he thought, Qi Yongrui didn’t have the confidence to ask Luo Huian to hand him some egg tarts.

Forget about how much trouble he had brought him; he wanted to kill her for heaven’s sake!

Qi Yongrui sighed and then started eating the rice in his bowl without saying much. He wanted to thank Luo Huian but felt it was too shallow. He had threatened her and tried to push her into a corner by using the contract that their family signed. When he thought about how much trouble he had brought Luo Huian, Qi Yongrui had no face to look at her.

He thought of his sister and the brother whom he had treated as a treasure with all his heart. The more he thought, the more he realised that his relationship with Luo Huian was destined to doom from the start. He couldn’t stay with her—if he did, then the Qi family would certainly harm her.

Qi Yongrui bit the end of his chopsticks and a determined glint flashed in his eyes.

Luo Huian waited until the mers finished eating their meals and then packed up before tying them back up. When she was tying Qi Yongrui, she heard the mer say, “Wait for things to die down… will—give you an explanation for everything.”

Luo Huian paused and raised her head to look at the mer. Though Qi Yongrui didn’t say anything, she understood that the mer had finally seen things through. She hummed and went back to tying his hands.

The Qi family had harmed him like this; if Qi Yongrui still continued to work like a dog and a cat for them, then she would certainly look down on him.

She didn’t care if this mer had evil intentions towards her. She could handle him just fine and the fact that she couldn’t hit this mer showed that he never wanted to do anything to harm her.

But what she could not handle was cowardice. She could never withstand such a thing.

“You three take care of yourself.” Luo Huian got to her feet and looked at the three mers before saying, “I can’t come here every day so try to keep yourself out of harm’s way.”

After speaking, she turned on her feet and then walked out of the shack. With Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai guarding her, no one detected her and Luo Huian was calm through and through.

Qi Yongrui watched her leave and his expression shifted slightly before he turned to look away and faced the grimy wall once again. Seeing him like this, Long Zhong knew that Qi Yongrui had made some serious decisions. Though Qi Yongrui was like a terrified child, he was also very stubborn.

Once he had made a decision, he would see it through.

“Yongrui, what are you thinking?” Long Zhong asked.

Qi Yongrui didn’t reply; he simply smiled at him. What other decisions could he make other than divorcing Luo Huian? Only by divorcing her would the contract that he had signed become null and void; if not, the Qi family would continue to target the Luo family.

“What did you say?” Luo Yeqing stared at the woman in front of her and was speechless when she heard the good things that the woman was telling her. She blinked her eyes and looked at Old Madam Qi sternly before saying to her, “What do you mean by those words, Old Madam? I think I seem to have misheard something.”

Old Madam Qi,however, simply smiled at Luo Yeqing. She waved her hand and said to Luo Yeqing, “There is no need to be so shocked, Madam Luo. We both are businesswomen and we both know how to deal with troubles and losses, don’t we?”

Old Madam Qi smiled and then continued in a calm voice, “My grandson went to finish some business dealings but ended up getting lost. This is why we had no choice but to adopt another mer from the branch family from one of my in-laws.”

She waved her hand and then pointed at the little mer who was sitting next to her.

This only made Luo Yeqing frown even more. She thought that this old woman was joking but she never thought that she actually meant it! She wanted Luo Huian to marry this mer just because Qi Yongrui’s whereabouts were unknown!
