Seated opposite Gu Qingyao, Bai Youran was filled with jealousy as she looked at Gu Qingyao’s alluring face.
She’s just a countryside girl. What right does she have to be so beautiful?
Vixen!
“I met your mother. She’s with your younger sister, and they’re living quite a tough life. Gu Qingyao, you’re too cruel. She’s your birth mother after all. You are the young lady of the Gu family, but you let your mother and younger sister lead such lives. Isn’t it shameful if this goes out?”
Gu Qingyao chuckled. “Ten years ago, it was them who left the Gu family to lead a good life, and it was also them who said they wanted to cut ties with me. She’s a woman who does not know her place. She chose this road herself. Why do I need to pity them?
“Furthermore, I’ve not seen them for ten years, and I don’t know how they are doing. What I’m curious about is, Miss Bai, why are you so interested in this so-called birth mother of mine?”
Bai Youran’s expression changed!
“Gu Qingyao, meeting them was a coincidence. I just don’t wish to see them living such a hard life, so I helped them. Afterward, they told me some things about you. Do you wish to hear about it?”
“No!”
Bai Youran: “…”
“Won’t you regret it? Aren’t you afraid that your mother told me a secret that must not be known to an outsider and would affect your future if it is leaked out?”
Gu Qingyao stood up. “Let’s not waste time since Miss Bai doesn’t wish to say it. I’m very busy, and I have no time to waste with you.”
“Stop…” Bai Youran suddenly called out. Seeing that Gu Qingyao still continued walking, she became anxious. “Your mother said you are not a daughter of the Gu family. Gu Qingyao, you are not the young lady of the Gu family. How are you going to marry into the Mo family then?”
Gu Qingyao paused in her tracks and turned around.
Bai Youran laughed. “You never expected that, right? I found out such a big secret. Your mother personally told me that you are not her biological daughter and that you were abandoned by someone who did not want a girl back then. Didn’t you say that the Gu family treated you very well?
“If they find out that you’re not a child of the Gu family, do you think they will still treat you so well? If the Mo family knows that you aren’t even the young lady of the Gu family but a bastard child who appeared from nowhere, do you think you can still marry into the Mo family?”
Gu Qingyao was calm. “So?”
Bai Youran: “…”
She looked at Gu Qingyao in shock. She never thought that Gu Qingyao would be expressionless after hearing such big news.
“Aren’t… aren’t you worried at all?”
Gu Qingyao chuckled. “Let me ask you again. What did you tell me about this for?”
Bai Youran could not understand Gu Qingyao’s way of thinking and replied furiously, “Don’t play the fool. If all of these are exposed, everything you have now would be completely lost. If you want me to keep this a secret for you, you must listen to me.”
Gu Qingyao raised a brow. “Oh? What do you want me to do?”
“First, break your engagement with Mo Beihan and say that you are not worthy of him. You must break off the engagement.
“Second, give me five thousand yuan!
“As long as you achieve these two requirements, I will agree to help keep this as a secret.”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
She did not say anything but observed Bai Youran closely.
“Have you lost your mind from being broke?”
Bai Youran was stunned. “What?”
“I said, have you lost your mind from being broke? You suddenly came to me and blabbered about me not being a child of the Gu family then asked me to break off my engagement and give you money. Who do you think you are? Why must I believe you?
“There’s something wrong with your brain!”
