Chapter 464: All Drama Queens (1/2)
The new year was almost here. The Sun family would surely bring some things to the black market to barter for things to celebrate the new year. She had to hurry. Those things belonged to the Gu family. They must get back as much of it as possible.
Mo Beihan led Gu Qingyao over to greet the others. Jiang Yingqiu’s eyes brightened the moment she saw Gu Qingyao. She hurriedly stood up and clasped Gu Qingyao’s hand. She smiled ingratiatingly, as if afraid the girl would flee.
“Yao Yao! Why are you here? Is anything the matter? Beihan, how can you be so ignorant! Yao Yao is a girl; she’ll be so cold coming out here in the middle of winter. If she has any errands to run, why can’t you do them for her? If you let Yao Yao Yao come out, she might catch a cold. Then what will we do?”
After berating Mo Beihan, she turned to Gu Qingyao. “Yao Yao! Don’t worry, our Beihan is still young. Sometimes he doesn’t know how to take care of others properly. Don’t worry, I will teach him. I guarantee that he will take good care of you and you won’t suffer.
“Beihan shows great promise, and he is only in his early twenties. He will certainly become increasingly successful. Don’t worry! He will certainly take good care of you, all right? Aunt won’t allow you to suffer.”
Her performance was very believable!
Gu Qingyao was laughing inwardly, but outwardly, she looked very conflicted. “Aunt, I… I understand. I’m here to give Mu Mu his medicine. He is in poor health and still needs to take medicine.”
“Oh, oh, oh!” Jiang Yingqiu responded. She immediately looked delighted and heaped praises on Gu Qingyao.
“Yao Yao, you’re such a kind girl. You even personally brought Mu Mu his medicine. Look at you! You’re pretty and mature. My Beihan must have done something good in his previous life to be engaged to you!”
Gu Qingyao only chuckled hollowly but did not reply. She continued to look strained. She clearly understood that Jiang Yingqiu was trying to flatter her, to get her to accept the fact that they were taking on six children even before she was married.
Mo Beihan was deeply amused as he watched them.
His mother, the old drama queen, and his wife, the little drama queen, were putting on a brilliant performance.
Mu Mu immediately joined in. He tipped his guileless little face towards Gu Qingyao and smiled brilliantly, as if eager to please. “Aunt, you’re so nice to me. I will certainly obey you. I will obey you in everything. My grandma is very nice. When you become part of our family in the future, you won’t suffer from any grievances.”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
Mo Beihan: “…”
Wow!
