Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife - Chapter 440
Chapter 440: Mo Beihan Comes Home
Mu Mu suddenly burst into tears. “I don’t want to join the Mo family! Please don’t hate me!”
Gu Qingyao paused and turned to look at the child in her arms. Mu Mu’s eyes were red and his cheeks were tear-streaked. He looked at Gu Qingyao with an injured and sorrowful expression.
When Gu Qingyao saw how hard he was crying, her eyes also reddened. She hurriedly wiped away his tears.
Sometimes, the connection between people was very mysterious. Mu Mu had attached himself to Gu Qingyao and he was such a mature and obedient child that Gu Qingyao could not help but like him too.
She had plenty of resources and could support many people. These children were so pitiful. Even if they did not belong to the Mo family, since she had gotten to know them, she certainly would not allow them to suffer.
She did not know what their relation to the Mo family was, but regardless of whether they joined the Mo family, she knew that she would certainly help them. She would not see them go hungry.
Furthermore, Gu Qingyao knew that if they were really related to the Mos, Mo Beihan would not abandon them.
Gu Qingyao stroked his little head gently. “Mu Mu is such a clever and mature boy; why would I hate you? Be a good boy and wait for your Uncle Mo to return. Right now, I cannot make any decisions and I’m not sure what the truth is. Let’s wait until he gets back, all right?
“No matter what, I won’t hate you. In the future, I will teach you to read and write, as usual, all right?”
Mu Mu paused and said somewhat disbelievingly, “Really?”
Gu Qingyao smiled. “Really!”
After she coaxed him for a long time, she finally persuaded the children to stay until Mo Beihan returned.
On the evening of the third day, Mo Beihan and Gu Jinlin returned. With them were Second Brother Gu Jinhang and Fourth Brother Gu Jinfeng.
It was definitely a surprise to see Second Brother and Fourth Brother. Second Uncle lived very far away, and Gu Qingyao had not expected them to come back.
“Second Brother, how did a busy man like you find time to come back? What a surprise!”
Gu Qingyao had not seen her Second Brother for a long time. In fact, this was her first time meeting him since she had been reborn more than a year ago.
Her second brother, Gu Jinhang, was a classic example of a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He was like a fox. Of the five cousins, he had done the best and his position was even higher than Eldest Brother’s previous position.
Gu Jinhang was always smiling and affable, but he had a crafty aura.
“What’s the matter? It’s not that long since you saw me. Don’t you recognize your second brother anymore? Let me look at you…”
Gu Jinhang walked over to Gu Qingyao and looked at her carefully. He nodded. “Uhm! After not seeing you for so long, I think our Yao Yao has grown prettier!”
Gu Qingyao immediately laughed. “Second Brother, you’re also much more handsome!”
Gu Jinhang raised his brows. As a grown man, he was not at all embarrassed to be praised for his looks. Instead, he seemed rather happy and pleased!
“Of course. What do you take me for?”
“Hehe…”
Gu Qingyao burst out laughing.
Gu Jinfeng, who was standing nearby, looked at his brother scornfully. “Don’t lead Yao Yao astray!”
Gu Jinhang pulled Gu Qingyao over and put his arm around her shoulders. He glanced at Gu Jinfeng. “I’m such a good person, would I lead our younger sister astray?”
Gu Jinfeng: “…”
Gu Qingyao looked at Mo Beihan, who was standing nearby, then turned to look at the room where Jiang Xun and the others were staying. They had remained in the room and were probably very nervous by now.
Gu Qingyao said to her cousins, “Go on in! Brother Beihan, I have something to tell you.”
