The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 643 Unforgettable Great Kindness (3)_1

Many of the Shen family’s maids took the opportunity to assess Pei Qin, not just Shen Songming, who clamored to marry her. Incredibly, Young Master Mojiu from the Mo family, that extraordinarily handsome and talented young man, actually took this Pei Qin as his wife.

Pei Qin didn’t expect the Shen family to treat her with much kindness or generosity. That Old Lady Shen and Madam Shen were willing to see her was already giving her quite an honor, wasn’t it? She delivered the gifts and expressed her gratitude.

Knowing she definitely wouldn’t want to spend more time in their back house than necessary, Shen Songming came over to call for her.

Madam Shen saw that even now Shen Songming protected Pei Qin to this extent, as if fearing that they might mistreat her, which infuriated her to the point of liver pain. Pei Qin wasn’t so uniquely beautiful as to mesmerize him completely. She had already married Mo Heng and had a child with him, yet he ran off to become the godfather to her daughter. Aside from not planning to marry her, he treated her the same as before. Did he actually intend to remain a bachelor for such a woman?

Madam Shen said with dignified smile, "Lady Mo rarely visits us, and your grandmother has already said she wants to invite Lady Mo to dine with us!"

"They’re leaving the day after tomorrow, and there are other matters. Let them go back on their own and have a casual meal; no need to trouble them," Shen Songming said, beckoning Pei Qin to come out.

Pei Qin didn’t want to dine with them either; it would give her indigestion! She thanked Madam Shen for the kind offer and then took her leave with Shen Songming.

Seeing Shen Songming lead her away arm in arm, an invisible trust and closeness emanated between them. Shen Songming had bought a private residence on Dongda Street, one the Shen family didn’t allow anyone to enter, yet Pei Qin and her group moved in directly. A surge of intense irritation washed over Madam Shen uncontrollably.

After speaking with Shen Bi, Mo Heng waited at the second gate and saw Pei Qin and Shen Songming emerge. Expressionless, he led Pei Qin away with a polite farewell.

Shen Songming watched them board the carriage and snorted softly, "What a narrow-minded, jealous lot! Always grumbling behind my back!" Whether they married or not, his relationship with Pei Qin remained the closest!

Mo Heng overheard and reached out to take Pei Qin’s hand. "Your hand is so cold, let me warm it up for you!"

Pei Qin thought he would simply hold her hand to warm it, but to her astonishment, he lifted his robe and pressed her hand against his body. She stared with wide eyes and her mouth twitched uncontrollably. "You repressed pervert! Can’t you be more improper?" Where exactly was he warming her hand!?

"It’s warm," said Mo Heng, his face unchanging.

Pei Qin really wanted to jerk her hand back and kick him off the carriage. Married to an always covertly lecherous man, what should she do? Omnipotent netizens, I need an answer!

The netizens had no answers, but Mo Heng quickly provided one, with shameless and impudent intimacy.

Fang Liuming and Fang Fu came to see them, noticing Pei Qin stepping out of the carriage with a somewhat darkened expression. They exchanged looks, guessing whether Pei Qin had been snubbed during her thank-you visit to Shen Mansion. After all, Shen Songming had previously wanted to marry Pei Qin and the Shen family had disagreed. Under normal circumstances, there should be no interaction between the two, yet they still continued to visit each other like before, likely much to the displeasure of the elders of the Shen family.

However, since the Shen Mansion was Shen Songming’s home and Shen Bi had stepped in to save someone this time, technically speaking, they owed them a favor, Fang Fu tactfully advised Pei Qin a few words. They seldom came to Capital Jingcheng and had little to do with the Shen family, so it was best not to mind them.

Only Mo Heng knew why Pei Qin’s face was darkened, yet he asked the two about their situation at the Imperial College with seemingly good spirits.

"We have already registered at the Imperial College and can attend at any time. Cousin, when do you plan to return?" Fang Liuming was worried about Pei Qian back in Yuanyang County, not knowing if she had been mistreated and now unable to return to see her.

"Tomorrow or the day after," replied Pei Qin.

"Tomorrow," however, Mo Heng interjected.
