Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 155

Shen Lingjun was speechless and could only close her eyes with a sense of resignation, imagining herself as a dead fish lying on a chopping board.

Let him do whatever he wants...

This is the price you pay for asking him for help.

She was willing to pay such a price so that her father and brothers could return safely. Anyway, she had mentally prepared herself... well, not at all.

But they're all the same!

She can endure it!

After waiting for a long time, they still didn't hear any further action from Mo Zhonggui.

Mo Zhonggui laughed out loud: "Madam Shen looks so tragic, anyone who didn't know better would think you were about to die a martyr."

Shen Lingjun opened her eyes: "..."

Knowing that he didn't really mean anything to her and was just toying with her, she breathed a sigh of relief, but was also secretly annoyed.

Is it really that fun to mess with her?

What she feared most was someone like Mo Zhonggui, whose moods were unpredictable. You never knew when he was in a good mood and just joking with you, or when he harbored hatred and murderous intent towards you. One wrong move and he might take your life.

Mo Zhonggui took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Shen Lingjun.

"Written by your brother for you and your mother."

Shen Lingjun quickly took it and opened it to take a look.

Upon seeing that familiar, elegant, and powerful handwriting, she couldn't help but shed tears again.

Her brother—that's proof he's still alive...

She suddenly felt Mo Zhonggui's hand reach out towards her.

Her fear of Mo Zhonggui was ingrained in her bones; she felt a chill run down her spine at any touch from him and instinctively flinched away.

She didn't dodge, but Mo Zhonggui didn't do anything to her either; his hand simply wiped away a tear from her face.

This action stunned Shen Lingjun, who didn't react for a moment.

When she came to her senses, she looked at Mo Zhonggui and was immediately filled with a sense of horror.

This powerful and ruthless killer... is actually wiping away her tears?

It's going to rain red blood!

Shen Lingjun waited a few seconds, feeling that after he wiped away her tears, his hand should move down again and strangle her or something... that would be more in line with his style.

--not at all.

Shen Lingjun glanced at Mo Zhonggui and saw that he looked very natural, as if his actions just now were perfectly normal.

This made Shen Lingjun afraid to make a fuss, lest she anger him.

Her head was comfortably perched on her neck and she had no intention of moving.

Shen Lingjun could only remain silent, suppressing the horror and astonishment in her heart, and pretending that nothing had happened, as she continued to read Shen Jingyang's letter.

The letter was short, probably because it was to avoid worrying Shen Lingjun and the Wen family. It only reported good news and not bad news, briefly mentioning his and Shen Wei's situation. Everything else would be discussed when they met in Kyoto.

But for Shen Lingjun, that was enough.

She looked at the letter as if it were a rare treasure that had been lost and found, her eyes filled with both laughter and tears.

She hadn't dared to tell her mother before, fearing that if she gave Wen Shi hope, it would all be for nothing in the end, and Wen Shi wouldn't be able to bear the blow.

But now I can say that my brother's letters have indeed arrived.

I can't even imagine how happy the Wen family will be then?
