This meant that Yao Yao treated his family as hers. And that was why she was so thoughtful.
Mo Beihan smiled, “There are houses nearby?”
Gu Qingyao nodded, “Yes, there are a few nearby. Aunt should rest for a few days first. You must be exhausted after such a long train ride. I’ll bring you around to take a look at the houses after a few days. We’ll get the one that you like.
“It’s near Teacher’s workplace, and there’s a department store around the corner. It’s not too far from the Mo family. Brother Beihan and the children can come and visit you often.
“The few houses I selected are huge and have enough rooms. It’s okay if the children want to stay for a few days. Oh, most importantly, it’s not far from the school they will be going to. If you miss them, you can visit them directly without notifying the Mo family.”
“Really?”
This was the most surprising news for Jiang Yingqiu now.
Gu Qingyao smiled, “Of course. The Mo family were delighted when they knew that the children were coming. They have arranged a school for them. I have already heard about the school. It’s not far from here.”
Grandma Mo visited her often. It was easy to know which school the children would be attending.
In order to please Mo Beihan and show their respect to her and Jiang Yingqiu, the Mo family chose a school that was nearer to where Jiang Yingqiu would stay.
Jiang Yingqiu finally smiled, “That’s good! That’s good!”
The children that she raised all these years had never left her sight. How would she be willing to let them go now?
She felt relieved when she knew that she could still see them. Jiang Yingqiu was tired from the train ride. Mo Beihan asked her to rest early and left the room with Gu Qingyao.
The children were exhausted as well. Mu Mu fell asleep earlier on when Gu Qingyao was there. Jiang Xun and Mo Chengrui were not asleep yet. They were in their room and watched their younger brothers.
Mo Beihan followed Gu Qingyao to her room. There was no one else in the room, so Mo Beihan would not have to control himself anymore. He pulled her into her arms immediately and asked, “When will you be leaving?”
“About mid-March.”
There was not much time left.
Mo Beihan did not say anything but hugged her tighter.
They would be separated for a few years. It would be lying if he said he would not miss her. But he could not force her to stay.
“There’s not much time left. I will not be going to the Mo family now. I will stay here to accompany you. After you leave, I’ll then settle my stuff, okay?”
Jiang Hongying would not let him go easily if his identity was exposed. Yao Yao would be affected as well.
It would be late to go back after she left.
Gu Qingyao sighed softly, “Okay!”
She knew that Mo Beihan was not willing to let her go and she did not want to leave him either.
But she had no choice. When she knew that her mother might be in France, she could not stay here anymore. She must go overseas this time.
In the time before Gu Qingyao left, Mo Beihan accompanied her all the time besides the time of her training. He brought her to go shopping and walk around. Though they were a couple, they could not hold hands outside. The generation was still conservative. Such actions were not allowed in the public.
Mo Beihan sighed. He envied the freedom overseas. Now he also wanted to go overseas!
Then he would be able to hold Yao Yao’s hands on the streets.
