Actually, what Gu Qingyao did not know was that while she had been acting, Mo Beihan had also been acting!
In matters like these, Mo Beihan was more merciless .
Gu Qingyao was just a delicate young girl . She had been well taught from young, and was obedient and quiet . Later, after the incident, she grew even more timid and hid at home .
As she grew older, the Gu family became richer . She was a pampered young girl from an important family, who had to put up with rumors and gossip about herself . She was hardhearted enough to deal with these matters, but her methods lacked viciousness .
Also, the reborn Gu Qingyao was only fifteen . She did not have many connections or much power .
But Mo Beihan was different .
He had plenty of experience . He had been a powerful and important man in his previous life . In this life, he was still a successful man . His methods were much more vicious than those of Gu Qingyao .
Of course, he knew what was going on in the Gu family . In his previous life, Zhang Xiaohui had caused him and Yao Yao to suffer deeply . In this life, he certainly would not allow the girl he liked to be bullied .
He had already noticed that something was amiss when Zhang Xiaohui continually made trips to town . He also knew about Wang Guozhu .
During this period, Zhang Xiaohui and Wang Guozhu’s resources were provided, not just by Gu Qingyao, but also by Mo Beihan .
Mo Beihan had devised a way to give Wang Guozhu and Zhang Xiaohui even more money . He also found someone to deliberately lure them to the city to have even more fun . So, at that moment, Zhang Xiaohui and Wang Guozhu were in the city!
Wang Guozhu had been transferred there for work, and would return in a few days . Zhang Xiaohui had plenty of cash and coupons and wanted to go too, so they went together .
They had not found Zhang Xiaohui, but people had seen her and she seemed to be especially flush with cash . This news was even juicier .
That day, Mo Beihan was returning on his bicycle . He was deliberately making a trip to the Qing River Brigade . At that moment, Gu Qingyao and her grandparents were at Wang Mingtao’s house . Zhang Xiaohui had not been found, so everyone was discussing the matter .
Wang Mingtao in particular sensed that things were about to go awry . He wanted to swiftly conclude the matter . If things were as he suspected, it would reflect badly on the entire brigade .
In these times, the relationships between men and women were governed by strict rules, so Wang Mingtao was very worried .
Mo Beihan entered and greeted everyone . He looked at Gu Qingyao and said, “Haven’t you been searching for your mother lately? You don’t need to search any further . She’s in the city!”
City!
Everyone was stunned .
Before they could recover their wits, Mo Beihan continued to say to Gu Qingyao, “I had some errands to run in the city and saw her from afar . I was in the middle of something and had someone with me, so I did not have a chance to call out to her .
“By the time I was done and went looking for her, I couldn’t find her any longer . I don’t know where she is . ”
“When I saw her, she and your elder sister were emerging from a department store . They were wearing new clothes and carrying many parcels . They looked like they had bought many things! Did your father give her a lot of money before he left? She bought so many things, she must have spent a lot of money!”
Gu Qingyao was shocked!
Really?
Elder Brother Beihan had really seen her?
But she had no time to think about that . She hurriedly said, “No, my father did not give us much money . In fact, he doesn’t have that much money at all .
“My older uncles and cousins live outside the village and their living expenses are very high . My older cousins are growing up . Their last letter said that my aunts are all pinching and saving so they can get married . The last time they sent some things over, they were all things they had saved to get . There is no money at home at all . ”
