Chapter 189: Unlucky to the Extreme 17_1
Before He Zhilan had a chance to glance at the opened letter, Jiang Biyun quickly grabbed it from her. Calling over Chen Xiting, the two of them hid in a corner, casting sidelong glances at the letter while keeping an eye out for Zhilan attempting to snatch it back.
Interestingly, Zhilan wasn’t fazed at all. She knew He Teng too well. Given his personality, it was unlikely that the letter was filled with sweet nothings that could excite a crowd. It would mostly report what he’s been doing recently and how well everything is going, just like the letters he sends home.
After Jiang Biyun and Chen Xiting spent over three minutes reading the letter - a few hundred words - they didn’t find anything that could be used to taunt Zhilan. They didn’t even find the word ’wife’!
"Here, take it back! This is more boring than reading a textbook!" Jiang Biyun resentfully threw the letter back at Zhilan, pouting her lips. "I thought he might have written something that could make people blush with excitement, like the letters my father writes to my mother when he’s away on business trips, and he’s much older!
As expected, a letter as mundane as its sender, He Teng was despised by Jiang Biyun.
"This letter was sent before National Day, but somehow it was delayed until now. I have no idea why it took so long this time. I thought I would get it right after I came back from the National Day holiday!" Zhilan smiled awkwardly.
"Even if it was written before the National Day, he should at least say something sweet! Look at this letter, unbelievable..." Jiang Biyun was clearly disappointed about not seeing what she wanted. After a pause, she added, "Your husband’s handwriting is terrible!"
Jiang Biyun was indeed outspoken. Only someone like Zhilan could bear with her without getting angry.
