Lu Wanli frowned slightly as she saw that he had brought her to his room.
But Mo Jingshen beat her to it. "The clothes are in that bag there, later on you can shop for some clothes that you want. I'll be in the study all night so you don't have to worry."
"Why don't I just stay in another room?"
Mo Jingshen felt like it would be too stressful to explain everything to her.
He didn't care about the marriage before so he didn't remove the informants here. But, perhaps it was because of the agreement between them, he felt like he needed to protect her a little.
If the Mo family knew that he didn't care for her, they would definitely deal with her.
"Stay here for tonight. As for matters between men and women, there's no need to worry about that." After saying that, he left the room.
With him gone, Lu Wanli finally checked out the room.
The design was similar to the main house. It was large and looked very spacious because of the few furniture pieces.
She checked the shopping bags that were placed on a recliner and was impressed by the thoughtfulness of the person that bought it.
The capability of a subordinate was dependent on the master.
The bag had loose pajama pieces and underwear that were of stretchy but thick material.
It would still size someone that was one or two sizes above her. Then there were two dresses. Both of them black and were also made of a thick but slightly stretchy material.
One of the dresses was larger than the other.
She picked the pajamas and went into the bathroom.
Even though she found the bathroom to be exotic, she was already used to many luxuries. In fact, she knew for certain that one could have the world and still feel empty if they didn't have the right people around them.
Once she was done in the bathroom, Lu Wanli decided to go to bed immediately.
From arguing with her parents to the registration and everything, she felt completely exhausted.
Besides, she knew that from tomorrow, her hands were going to be full.
When she climbed into bed, she found that the pillows held the familiar scent that she had smelled around Mo Jingshen.
It was slightly manly but oddly comforting and very quickly, she drifted off to sleep.
——
In the study, Mo Jingshen joined Chen Rui who had taken off his jacket but still had his necktie off.
Chen Rui had started working for Mo Jingshen as soon as he finished school while Mo Jingshen had just entered university.
Mo Jingshen was fifteen then.
In those thirteen years of working together, the both of them had formed a tight bond between them.
Chen Rui passed an iPad to him.
"I was just about printing it before you came in."
Mo Jingshen nodded but didn't start reading the contract until he was seated in the executive chair.
Very quickly, his eyes skimmed through the details and just as he wanted to hand it over, he remembered Lu Wanli's mischievous look when she talked about finding other young men.
"Include that both parties aren't allowed to see other people during this period."
Chen Rui opened the document on his laptop and informed Mo Jingshen once it reflected.
Satisfied with the final version, Mo Jingshen nodded. "You can print it now."
Because of the time zone difference, Mo Jingshen sat for two meetings while Chen Rui worked on the side.
If Mo Jingshen was paying attention, he would have noticed that his assistant's face kept darkening every minute.
The moment Mo Jingshen finished the last meeting, Chen Rui stood up.
"Young Master, this marriage isn't going to work!"
Mo Jingshen's brows raised slightly.
Chen Rui pressed a button on his keyboard and then Mo Jingshen's devices dinged with a notification.
Seeing that he had shared a folder, Mo Jingshen opened it immediately.
The first item was a video that showed Lu Wanli confessing her feelings to a boy while holding a bag of gifts and flowers.
Mo Jingshen's lips curled up slightly as he found the video a little funny. The girl had on green hair and was dressed in biker shorts and a leather jacket.
Despite the crowd that had gathered around her, she shamelessly declared her feelings.
How courageous.
How come he didn't see this courage when they were in the car and during dinner?
He clicked the next item and saw a video of her jumping over several items and chasing after someone. Eventually, she caught the person who seemed to have stolen from her and beat the person up with no mercy.
Mo Jingshen's lips twitched. It almost looked as though the girl he met and this person he was seeing were two different people.
However, he didn't see what was wrong so he looked at Chen Rui.
"Is there a particular thing you saw?"
"Young Master, there's not a lot of visual pictures because it's rumored that the man she confessed to isn't interested in her and avoids her. However, it's open knowledge that she chases after him."
Mo Jingshen nodded in understanding. "Hmm, looks like her standard is quite low," he said as he clicked on another item.
This item was also a video and it showed Lu Wanli with her current red hair riding a power bike at high speed.
She had about eight people riding behind her giving off the impression of a gang.
As she increased her speed, Lu Wanli took her hands off the bike handle and threw her head back laughing.
She had no helmet on and her hair was dancing everywhere from the wind.
Mo Jingshen's face remained blank but he shook his head slightly.
"How reckless."
He closed the folder and looked at Chen Rui. "Since you have read the contract, you should already know that we have an arrangement. However, for as long as she is Mrs Mo, then you should treat her just like you treat me."
Chen Rui had a reluctant expression but nodded.
"Also, get the butler to remove those people."
Mo Jingshen didn't need to say who they were and Chen Rui nodded in understanding.
Chen Rui turned to leave, planning to stay in a guest room overnight but just as he was about to leave the study, all the devices around them beeped with a special ringing tone.
Mo Jingshen's face turned stern while Chen Rui turned back at the speed of light.
All their devices had turned black and a voice rang out from the laptop before Mo Jingshen.
"Hehe, I didn't think that Mr Mo had this type of exceptional taste."
"Mr Mo, don't you think it's too much that you are working on your wedding night?"
A long pause.
"Tsk tsk. All of you from the Mo family are all made of stone."
The room became silent for about a minute even though the screens still remained blank.
Chen Rui's fingers were clenched tight in anger from his helplessness while Mo Jingshen pulled out a phone from his desk's drawer.
Once the phone came on, he turned on the recording button and leaned back.
"Mr Mo, you should really get some rest…." The voice came out again, this time with a lazy drawl to it.
"I'm working on your wedding present, once it's delivered, I'll be sure to let you know it was from me."
Another deliberate pause.
"Happy married life, Mo Jingshen."
