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

Chapter 221

Having known Mo Zhonggui for so long, Shen Lingjun knew that when he made a decision in that tone, it usually left no room for argument. No amount of nonsense from her would change anything, and she couldn't possibly be so stubborn as to defy him to the death.

Well, no one else knows anyway, and he's not a real man anyway, so I guess I'll just stay in a room.

He's done even more absurd things than this. You can't approach him with the conventional wisdom of ordinary people.

To reiterate, if he wanted to do something to her, he would have done it already, and she couldn't stop him.

Shen Lingjun took a breath, ignoring the sweat pouring down her back, and said generously, "Then you can sleep on the bed, Chief Supervisor Mo. I'll just sleep on this chaise lounge."

This is the top-tier room, which, in addition to the bed, also has a chaise lounge.

Mo Chonggui turned his head and glanced at the chaise longue. His right hand landed on it, and the next second, the chaise longue turned into a pile of wooden fragments on the ground.

Mo Chonggui: "What chaise lounge?"

Shen Lingjun: "..."

He's amazing, he's amazing, she lost.

Mo Zhonggui: "Go take a shower. Look at you, all travel-worn."

Shen Lingjun gritted her teeth and took a bath that lasted almost half an hour.

Mo Zhonggui didn't rush her. It wasn't until Shen Lingjun was soaking in the bathtub and almost fell asleep that he woke up and had to change his clothes and come out.

Mo Zhonggui had obviously also bathed and changed into a white nightgown, and sat at the opposite table drinking tea.

His long hair was slightly damp, draped over his shoulders, with water still dripping from the ends. His striking features appeared hazy yet deep under the lamplight. It was so different from his usual appearance that it possessed an unusual allure.

Shen Lingjun didn't dare to look at him. Her mind was a mess, and she didn't know what she was thinking. In any case, she was extremely tense, and her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

What exactly does he want to do?

Mo Zhonggui pointed to the large bed in the corner: "Go up there, what are you standing there for?"

Shen Lingjun: "..."

She walked step by step toward the large bed like a condemned prisoner on the execution ground, feeling an atmosphere of utter tragedy, as if she were about to embark on a heroic sacrifice.

I lay down on the bed, closed my eyes, and pretended to be a dead fish.

Mo Zhonggui stared at her on the bed, his gaze growing increasingly deep and dark, his Adam's apple bobbing involuntarily.

He stepped forward, stopped in front of the bed, and continued to gaze at Shen Lingjun, motionless, as if possessed. Instinctively, he raised a hand to touch her face...

Shen Lingjun lay there with her eyes closed, waiting for a long time without any movement. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer and opened her eyes. The room was empty, and Mo Zhonggui was nowhere to be seen.

"..." Shen Lingjun looked completely bewildered.

Why did they leave so suddenly without saying a word?

Could it be that this esteemed official was just bored and wanted to tease her?

She could never guess what Mo Zhonggui was thinking, but one thing she was sure of was that now that he had left, he definitely wouldn't be coming back tonight.

Thank goodness, otherwise she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

Shen Lingjun breathed a sigh of relief. He was really sleepy at this point, so he turned over and fell into a deep sleep without a care in the world.
