Chapter 497: Chapter 497 Early Birth of a Precious Child (1)_1

This news was so sudden, so shocking. Not to mention Fang Li, even Old Scholar Fang, who had always been prepared, was somewhat unable to react at once. Moreover, he had only heard that Mo Heng was Teacher to Pei Wendong and had not yet met the man.

Lady Yu, worried, tugged at Pei Qin, asking about Mo Heng’s background, "Where is he from? How old is he? What’s his character like? We’ve only heard a word about him and haven’t seen him. How come you’ve suddenly decided to marry him?" Weren’t we always planning a marriage with Young Master Shen?

"Both his character and appearance are very good, and he’s the same age as me. Because he keeps a low profile and hasn’t been out and about much in recent years, not many people know him," Pei Qin briefly introduced and said, "It’s late, I shouldn’t stay any longer. You all can meet him tomorrow, just in time to start preparing for the wedding," then called Lu Hai to prepare to leave.

Grandma Fang followed her out, "It’s so late, why not stay the night and leave tomorrow, or I’ll go back with you!"

"Lu Hai knows martial arts; she is a very competent guard. It’s fine," Pei Qin said and then got into the carriage.

After nodding to the others, Lu Hai directly drove the carriage away.

Only then did Lady Yu let go of Fang Li, "Qinqin isn’t a rash person, let’s meet this Mo Heng first thing tomorrow."

"What do you mean ’not a rash person’? I’ve never even heard of this Mo Heng, and she’s suddenly marrying him. There must be something fishy!" Fang Li angrily exclaimed. Not planning to marry Shen Songming, and suddenly there’s a Teacher Mo popping up, what about his eldest son?

"Let’s all go to sleep, we’ll eat early tomorrow and then go have a look," Old Scholar Fang commanded with a stern face.

Grandma Fang sighed with worry, "What about Young Master Shen? Is there some trouble on his side? Why did Qinqin suddenly change her mind, not marrying Young Master Shen and instead marrying this Teacher Mo who appeared out of nowhere?"

"If he was teaching Wendong, then he should have known Qinqin for a long time," Old Scholar Fang said with a sigh, afraid Teacher Mo was not a reliable person.

The whole family was holding their breath, thinking about this suddenly decided marriage.

Pei Qin returned to town and, when returning the carriage to Mo Heng, saw that the lights were still on in the house.

Zhang Gengshan, limping, came up, "The gentleman is still waiting for Ms. Pei."

"He’s not asleep yet?" Pei Qin frowned slightly and walked toward the room still lit.

Lu Hai pursed her lips and lowered her head, waiting to the side.

Inside the room, Mo Heng was weakly propping up his tired eyes, eagerly looking as he heard her return.

Seeing his face had improved a bit, Pei Qin sat down beside the bed and pulled out the pillow behind him.

But Mo Heng reached out to embrace her, "You, do you really want to marry me? You’re not deceiving me?"

Pei Qin pushed him away and rolled her eyes at him, "When have I ever deceived people?"

"Many times." Mo Heng had evidence; when she told lies, she wouldn’t even blink an eye.

Pei Qin’s face stiffened, "It’s hard enough being human..."

"What?" Mo Heng didn’t understand.

"Life is already so difficult, do not expose me!" Pei Qin looked up... at the ceiling.

Mo Heng’s face paled, and he clung to her hand more tightly, panting with difficulty, "So... you don’t really... want to marry me?"

Pei Qin’s mouth twitched again and again, "These are two different matters! Since I’ve promised something, I won’t go back on my word! The wedding clothes are all ready, do you want to see them?"

Mo Heng stared into her eyes for a while until he was sure she was serious. He shook his head then hugged her tighter, "Wear them when we get married!"

"Who would have thought that, despite the rush, I would still manage to get such a beautiful wedding gown! Are you sure you don’t want a sneak peek?" Pei Qin thought about the randomly purchased wedding gown and was pretty satisfied.
