Thinking about the Gu family’s circumstances back then, Qiao Yuying’s heart ached!
Even though everyone in the family doted on her daughter, she must have suffered a lot while growing up in that environment.
Gu Qingyao added, “I got engaged to him at sixteen. Brother Beihan has always been waiting for me to reach the legal age! In the end, when I turned eighteen, I suddenly received a letter from Teacher saying there’s a chance for me to go abroad and told me to treasure this opportunity. We were very surprised by this news back then, but Brother Beihan was the first person to support me in going abroad. We were already preparing for our wedding then.”
Qiao Yuying was stunned. “Him? Why?”
“So that I can have a better future! He knows the environment here is relatively more comfortable, and more so, I have the opportunity to attend school here but not in my hometown! It’s only a few years. He said he could wait for me.
“Afterward, Father told me to look for you. It was only then I found out my mother was overseas. So I came!
“They came abroad just like how I did back then. Brother Beihan especially came to look for me.”
Qiao Yuying composed herself for some time before finally accepting the fact that her daughter already had a fiance.
Gu Qingyao tugged Qiao Yuying’s arms and said, “Mother, Brother Beihan is a very nice person. Otherwise, my whole family would not bear to let me marry him. Don’t you think so? Do you want to meet him tonight also?
“He is a very nice person and especially good-looking. He is even more handsome than my eldest cousin!”
After interacting with Qiao Yuying for several years, Gu Qingyao realized that her mother seemed to find good-looking people irresistible. Perhaps Mo Beihan’s face could win Mother’s favor!
Indeed, Qiao Yuying’s eyes lit up. “He is better looking than your eldest brother?”
Gu Qingyao nodded hurriedly, “Mhmm!!”
Qiao Yuying replied, “Let’s meet him then!”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
After arranging with Qiao Yuying, Gu Qingyao returned back to notify Gu Jinfeng and Mo Beihan. Qiao Yuying got off work in the afternoon and headed to the agreed location.
Mo Beihan, Gu Jinfeng and Gu Qingyao waited at the hotel entrance instead of heading in, although they had already booked a private room.
When Qiao Yuying appeared, Gu Qingyao went forward to receive her. “Mother!”
The moment Qiao Yuying got out of the car, her eyes landed on the two young men before her.
Having been in the business world for years, Qiao Yuying had a keen judgment of people. Looking at the demeanor of these two men, she could tell that they were not simple people.
The man on the left appeared steadier and possessed a certain sternness and dominance, which, although held back, were still very powerful.
Even more so than the man on the right!
Gu Qingyao held Qiao Yuying’s arm and smiled while pointing to Gu Jinfeng on the right. “Mother, this is my Fourth Cousin, and this is Brother Beihan, Mo Beihan!”
The Gu family used to be a top family clan before its downfall, so it was not strange to raise such a child like Gu Jinfeng. Rather, Mo Beihan’s demeanor actually was more powerful than Gu Jinfeng’s, and this caught Qiao Yuying by surprise.
She raised a brow!
Gu Jinfeng never thought that his Young Aunt was such a beautiful and capable woman. She appeared to be more capable than any woman he had seen in the past. He was caught in awe.
Mo Beihan was much more calm. He knew about the Qiao Jewelry in his previous life as well but did not expect the founder to be Gu Qingyao’s mother.
Mo Beihan greeted, “Hello, Aunt!”
Gu Jinfeng greeted, “Hello, Young Aunt!”
Hearing Mo Beihan’s voice, Gu Jinfeng returned to his senses and hurriedly greeted!
Qiao Yuying smiled. “Hello. Let’s enter! You all should be hungry by now! Let’s enter and chat over some food!”
