Chapter 687: Chapter 687 Always Heart-Wrenching (1)_1

Pei Qian was already seething with anger, ready to find Pei Qin and give her a good scolding. She wouldn’t be placated by Wendong’s sweet words and wake up as if nothing mattered, she definitely couldn’t let her daughter be brought up as unruly as her, eating insects of all things? Their family was not wanting for food!

On seeing that several students from Songyang Academy had already arrived, coming so overtly, her face immediately darkened.

They were all wearing long robes, exuding an air of scholarship. When they saw Pei Qian leading Jiujiu through the front yard gate, they took her for a maid and didn’t pay her much attention, their eyes were all on Jiujiu. Seeing how delicate and pretty she was, such a young child already with such features, she was bound to be stunningly beautiful when grown.

Zhang Gengshan limped forward, "Gentlemen, please come inside! My master has gone to the Government Office and will return shortly."

The visitors were taken aback for a moment before realizing that Mo Heng was the Inspector of Runing Prefecture, "We apologize for any inconvenience!"

Huang Qiu looked inquiringly at Pei Qian.

With guests at home, she could hardly reprimand her older sister in front of strangers. Pei Qian pulled Jiujiu back to the front yard. As for those students from the Songyang Academy, she had no desire to arrange how to entertain them; their mere presence was an annoyance to her!

Zhang Gengshan reported to Pei Qin, brewed tea, and brought snacks to the hall.

The scholars accepted the tea and asked if the child they saw earlier was Mo Heng’s daughter.

"She is our young miss," replied Zhang Gengshan, asking them to please wait a moment.

They had all heard of Young Master Mojiu’s fame, not only because he passed the imperial exams at a young age, but also because of his unparalleled handsome features and his natural grace, comparable to the God of Love. The infant girl already had such delicate features; they were keen to see how handsome Mo Heng could be.

The visitors, here to discuss academic matters, suddenly anticipated the encounter even more.

Soon afterward, Mo Heng returned from outside, along with Pei Wendong, Chang Yonglin, and Xiao Yong.

"Is it a day off today?" Pei Qian came out when she saw the three also returning.

Pei Wendong shook his head, looking towards Mo Heng. They had been in class when he pulled them out, brought them straight home, just to watch him debate with people from Songyang Academy?

Chang Yonglin noted Pei Qian’s expression and knew no other guests had arrived, then laughed, "We might as well consider this day off! It’s the last break before the busy farming season."

Mo Heng glanced at the three, "Go pay your respect to your older sister." He too returned to the rear courtyard to change out of his official attire.

In the hall, the scholars were conversing when Mo Heng came back, they all stood up and came forward to greet him.

Not expecting too much before, they were all stunned upon seeing him unexpectedly—a look of admiration crossed their faces unanimously.

Having gone to the Government Office, Mo Heng wore his everyday attire, a dark green robe embroidered with a quail patch on the chest, which lent his handsome face an added air of dignity and severity.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Mo Heng invited the scholars into the room, then went back to his own room to change clothes.

Pei Qin was leaning on the soft couch, seemingly on the verge of slumber. Mo Heng smiled, walked over, sat beside the couch, glanced at the book in her hand, and placed it on the high table beside her.

Feeling someone intruding, Pei Qin’s drowsiness instantly vanished as she opened her eyes wide. Recognizing it was indeed him, she rolled her eyes and then closed them again.

"There will be an argument later, would you like to listen in?" Mo Heng leaned over her and planted a light kiss on her lips.

"Get off! You’re crushing me!" Pei Qin didn’t want to deal with him at all at the moment. Who was the brute responsible for her not being able to stand up and walk?

Mo Heng watched her lying underneath him, powerless to resist and at his mercy, recalling the frenzy of the night before, his tongue invaded, deeply kissing her.

Pei Qin watched expressionlessly as he changed clothes right in front of her.

Mo Heng dressed in his usual dark-colored robe with subtle patterns, leaned down to press a kiss on her lips, then cheerfully left the room.
