Chapter 440: Mo Beihan Comes Home (1/2)

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!”
