Zheng Lin quivered with anger and looked incredulous.
“You… you dare to scold me?”
Gu Qingyao laughed coldly. “I can tell you’re here to stir trouble. So? Why should I be polite to you?”
Zheng Lin fumed, “You’re holding my daughter captive. How is it…”
“I’ve already told you to just spit it out. I don’t have time to waste on you!”
Zheng Lin said angrily, “Do you deny it? Yuan Yuan is my daughter. It’s natural that I want to bring her home. You use your status as Mrs Mo to insist that my daughter stays at the Chen house.
“You want to make us grateful to the Chens, right? You want us to thank the Chens for raising our daughter for four years. The Chen siblings have nothing so you will have to pay a price if you want to help them. We will certainly have to give them money. You don’t want to give them anything, but want them to be grateful to you. That’s why you’re forcing my daughter to stay at their house so that our Zhong family will have no choice but to repay them, right?”
Gu Qingyao’s dark eyes glanced at Zheng Lin. For some reason, she did not feel very surprised when she looked at Zheng Lin.
She had probably been mentally prepared since their first meeting at the Chen house when Zheng Lin cried and wailed that Zhong Bingyuan must not be allowed to suffer in the Chen house.
Gu Qingyao said, “Do you mean that if I did not make Zhong Bingyuan live with the Chens for another month, but allowed her to go home immediately, you wouldn’t be grateful to the Chens?”
Zheng Lin was shocked!
She immediately looked a little embarrassed.
“Of course not. The Chens rescued my daughter. Of course the Zhong family won’t be so unreasonable. It’s only right that we thank them.”
Gu Qingyao smiled. “In that case, why are you making a fuss here? Are you worried that after you give them gifts to show your gratitude, the Chens will be grateful to me instead of you? Ultimately, they did rescue your daughter. Your Zhong family just gives them a little money as thanks and still wants them to feel indebted and grateful to you?”
“I…” Zheng Lin turned even paler. “That’s not what I meant!”
“Then what do you mean?”
Zheng Lin said angrily, “Don’t twist my words. You’re holding my daughter captive on purpose.”
Gu Qingyao laughed coldly. “Zhong Guangping said he would listen to my advice as a doctor and let Zhong Bingyuan stay at the Chen house for a month. Since you have changed your mind and she’s your daughter, go ahead and take her away. I want nothing to do with disobedient patients.”
Gu Qingyao did not say anything more to her. She just said to her companions, “Let’s get in the car!”
They all glanced at Zheng Lin. Gu Jinhang and Mo Beihan’s expressions were ugly. In all these years, few people had dared to treat Yao Yao like that!
Very well!
They ignored Zheng Lin and simply got into the car. They slammed the car door shut and drove away.
Zheng Lin was shocked!
She had not expected Gu Qingyao to agree so swiftly to her taking Zhong Bingyuan away. She had been prepared for a long argument. But in the end, she had not needed any of her arguments?

Gu Qingyao sat in the car, and they all drove towards the fish and pickles restaurant.
Mo Beihan looked at Gu Qingyao’s frosty little face as she sat next to the driver’s seat. He smiled and took her small hand. “All right, calm down. It’s not worthwhile getting angry over a crazy woman like that. We’re out to have fun. Why let a stranger make you unhappy?”
Gu Qingyao looked at him and huffed. “I’m not angry, but… this person is very strange…”
