Those with a kinder view would disagree, arguing that Mo Heng had already proposed to Pei Qin before rescuing her, and even seemed to have been rejected.
Shen Songming arrived with his entourage and saw Pei Qin and the others busily tidying up, with Mo Heng helping out as well. He sneered, "Well! Weren't you the one weak and nearly dying? The marriage was rushed, and after a few days of hard work, you're suddenly full of vigor?"
"Joy rejuvenates the spirit," Mo Heng looked up at him.
Caught off guard, Shen Songming gave a snort of laughter, "Still rejuvenated, huh? If you listened to what everybody outside is saying, you wouldn't feel so sprightly!"
"They're saying I'm a pretty boy kept by Qinqin," Mo Heng responded.
"Quite self-aware!" Shen Songming nodded. It had only been a few days since the marriage, and he was already so endearingly sweet!
"Who's been talking?" Pei Qin stepped out, displeased.
