"Indeed." Mo Heng nodded coldly.
Wu Dongsi smiled as he offered congratulations. Although Mo Heng had broken away from the Mo family, he didn't seem destitute; his demeanor was still compelling. Looking at him like this, it was as if he truly wanted to marry Pei Qin. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to snatch her away from Shen Songming.
Pei Qin thanked him and took a cartload of New Year goods back home with Mo Heng.
This year, there were a few more people celebrating the New Year, but it felt even less festive.
Mo Heng, sullen by nature.
Feng Wei said he was old and couldn't be lively even if he wanted to, so he just went along with the crowd.
The two people recently sent by Shen Songming were of the cool and distant sort.
Apart from Zhang Gengshan, who was a bit more lively.
But with so many eyes watching, with more than half of the people either quiet or cold, how could anyone feel happy or festive?
Pei Qin had become pregnant again.
