Rich and powerful families placed great importance on succession, especially noble families. It was like the families in China which placed great importance on bloodlines.
Infertility was a fatal blow. If a family successor could not have children, what would the family’s future be like?
If this man could build up his health, he could have children as per normal. But too many people were coveting his position, so they simply labeled him as infertile.
This rumor had hurt him greatly.
The end of the year was almost here. Everyone in the family was concerned about his health. By now, many of them had grown impatient. By the end of the year, they would certainly hire many doctors to examine him. By then, if he was really in poor health and was diagnosed with infertility, his future would be jeopardized.
Gu Qingyao’s words were a big help to him!
Not only to him. Even the steward was very excited.
Gu Qingyao brought out the medicine that she had prepared. “The dosage is the same. Remember to take it regularly. Also, you must rest properly. Follow the menu I gave you until the end of the month. I will bring you a new one next month.”
After she had completed her instructions, Gu Qingyao took a document out of her bag and handed it to the man. “Sir, I need your help with this.”
The man raised one brow and looked at it. Then he glanced at Gu Qingyao.
This girl had really aroused his curiosity!
The contents of the document were of no great import to him. He signed without hesitating.
Gu Qingyao smiled. “Thank you!”
She took the document and added a few words of advice before she left.
The man’s legs were unsteady, so he did not get up. The old steward sent Gu Qingyao off.
He only returned after he saw the chauffeur drive off with Gu Qingyao.
In the small living room, the man was holding a ceramic bottle, sniffing the herbal scent coming from it.
He smiled. “I’ve never taken such things before. Things from the Floating World are always so mysterious!”
The old steward returned. He frowned when he thought of Gu Qingyao’s document. “Sir, that document…”
The man smiled and waved him aside. “It doesn’t matter. It’s not a big deal. It’s just a record of our cooperation. The girl may be very ambitious, but she knows her limits. I can afford it.”
Gu Qingyao mystified him. On the surface, the girl was just the Qiao family’s granddaughter. She had no business connections with the Qiao family and was just a simple, pampered young girl.
The family doted on her and gave her an adequate allowance.
But he had interacted with Gu Qingyao for some time, and now he smiled when he thought of what Gu Qingyao wanted from him. The girl was hiding something mysterious!
It was dark by the time Gu Qingyao got home. Mo Beihan was not yet back.
She ate simply, then continued with her business. She made a phone call.
A girl answered the call. Gu Qingyao said, “The contract has been signed. You may proceed.”
The voice sounded very excited. “Boss, you’re amazing. Working for you indeed brings many benefits hahaha!”
Gu Qingyao ignored her excitement and hung up.
It was late, and Gu Qingyao went to rest.
Mo Beihan only appeared in the house past midnight. He opened the bedroom door, but when he saw that the slight figure on the bed was already asleep, he walked to the bathroom softly.
