Chapter 717: Back To China (1)
This fellow was getting good at sweet-talking!
Gu Qingyao ignored him. Her father’s sudden arrival would keep her busy!
She glared at him and turned to leave!
Mo Beihan rubbed his nose and smiled.
Since Gu Yunshen was here, of course he must meet the Qiao family and wait for them to accept him before he could go back. But Gu Qingyao could not wait. She had already been here for six years, and her studies were complete. Of the batch of students who were first sent here, she had received the highest level of education. She had to make a trip back.
Gu Jinfeng, Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao were waiting in the living room. They wanted to give Gu Yunshen and Qiao Yuying some space. They had not met for so many years. Now that they were meeting again after half a lifetime, they must have a lot to say to each other.
Qiao Yuying and Gu Yunshen only returned from the garden in the evening. When Gu Qingyao and the rest of those in the living room saw them return, they immediately stood up.
“Father, Mother!”
Qiao Yuying’s eyes were a little red, but she still looked very happy, a kind of heartfelt joy that was easily visible.
Gu Qingyao laughed. “Father, Mother, are you hungry? We can eat now. I’ve finished cooking!”
She and Mo Beihan had finished cooking together just now. The food was in the kitchen!
They brought the food out, and everyone sat down to eat.
It was an authentic Chinese meal. This was the first time Gu Yunshen, Qiao Yuying and Gu Qingyao ate a meal together as a family of three.
After dinner, Gu Qingyao and Qiao Yuying went back to the Qiao house together. Since Gu Yunshen was here, he would certainly have to pay the Qiao family a visit. She had to tell her parents in advance.
When they got back, Qiao Yuying was still rather distracted.
Gu Qingyao held her hand. “Mother, it’s great that Father is here to see us! Look at how much Grandfather and Grandmother care for you. You’ve suffered so much all these years, and Father has not been with you. Now that conditions allow it, it’s natural for Father to come here to seek their permission, right?
“That’s his duty as a son-in-law. Don’t worry. Although this is Father’s first time overseas, there shouldn’t be any danger. Father is very intelligent.”
Qiao Yuying was startled. She looked at her daughter’s beaming face and immediately laughed. “Of course! Your father is very smart. I knew that long ago.”
Qiao Yuying told her parents about Gu Yunshen when she got home. They arranged a time for Gu Yunshen to visit them.
Their granddaughter had already grown up. Although the two old folks were still rather prejudiced against Gu Yunshen, they would still meet him.
Three days later, the Qiao family’s uncles and older cousins arrived. Gu Yunshen was also visiting that day.
Gu Qingyao stood on the second floor and peered downstairs. Gu Jinfeng, who was standing next to her, clapped her on the back. “What are you looking at?”
Gu Qingyao said smilingly, “I’m watching how my father deals with my uncles!”
Mo Beihan stood there, with his lips twitching. He was enjoying Gu Yunshen’s discomfort!
He pulled Gu Qingyao over. “All right, let’s go and pack up. We have to go back to China soon.”
Gu Qingyao was reluctant. “I’m all packed. But… we don’t have to go so soon! Father has only been here a few days. I want to keep him company for a little longer!”
She had only had both her parents with her for a few days. She did not want to leave!
Gu Jinfeng stood there enjoying Mo Beihan’s discomfort!
Mo Beihan glanced at him and ignored him. He looked at Gu Qingyao. “Our trip is already planned. You have to go back to report. Although you don’t need to accept any work arrangements now and can do as you please, things were different when you left the country!”
