Chapter 895: Dispelling Gossip (2)

“One of them is Gu Ruoqing, the one who came with Zhang Xiaohui to make a fuss at our home. The other is Gu Qingyao.

“When they divorced, Zhang Xiaohui disliked Gu Qingyao. She had already found another husband and wanted to marry a rich man who lived in town. When Gu Yunshen and Zhang Xiaohui divorced, they took one daughter each and completely cut off any ties between them. Even their daughters cut the ties between them.

“Gu Qingyao is indeed the same age as Youran, and they were born on the same day of the same month, in the same year. They were even born at the same place Fourth Aunt gave birth to Youran.”

Old Master Bai was delighted. “That’s wonderful. Hurry up and let the Gu family know… I’ll go myself, and you must come along too!”

“All right!”

Old Master Bai could barely contain himself. The Bai family had only raised one daughter, but now they had two. These two could greatly benefit the family. Of course he was happy.

“Grandfather!” When Bai Fei saw that the Old Master had risen and was about to leave, he hurriedly added, “There’s something else I have to report to you!”

“What is it?”

“Gu Qingyao was engaged to Mo Beihan, and I heard that the wedding date is fixed for next month. If she really belongs to the Bai family, we don’t have to waste another daughter since Youran is already married into the Mo family!”

Old Master Bai was taken aback. He had not thought of that.

That’s right!

In their previous investigation, they had already found out that Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan were engaged. With Bai Youran married into the Mo family, they already had a marriage alliance with them. There was no need to also marry Gu Qingyao into the Mo family. That would be a waste!

“You’re right. Since she’s the Bai family’s daughter, then we will call the shots.”

“Also, since Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing used to be part of the Gu family, then… might the Gu family be behind this? Or perhaps… Mo Beihan?”

Bai Fei frowned. “I’m not sure. Mo Beihan has the biggest motive. If he reveals Youran’s identity and destroys the marriage alliance between the Bai family and the Mo family, it will certainly be an advantage to him in the Mo family.”

Old Master Bai grunted coldly. “Villagers have no foresight. He probably didn’t foresee that the Bai family would accept Youran! He probably thought that when he destroyed Bai Youran’s standing, the Bai family would support him after he marries Gu Qingyao. That way, he would immediately have an advantage over Mo Yunhao in the Mo family!”

Old Master Bai was very dismissive of Mo Beihan. He led Bai Fei towards the Gu home.

At the moment, Gu Qingyao was at the Qiao home. When she heard what Mo Beihan had done, she raised her eyebrows. “I guess that the Bai family will probably come looking for my father. They might even think I’m the Bai family’s daughter!”

Mo Beihan laughed. “I know. Things have gone so smoothly for the Bai family recently that Old Master Bai has grown arrogant. He’ll never guess how I’m plotting against him.”

Gu Qingyao smiled. “Have you discussed it with my father? If Old Master Bai comes looking for him, how are you going to handle it?”

Mo Beihan said nonchalantly, “That’s easy. After I told Uncle Gu about it, he guessed that Old Master Bai might come looking for him. He has been waiting.”

Gu Qingyao was amused. Her father was a bad man. Since he was prepared, she did not have to worry.

“What do you want for lunch? I’ll cook for you.”

Mo Beihan’s eyes brightened. He and Yao Yao had very little time alone ever since their return to China. He seldom got to eat her cooking any more.

“Cook whatever you like. I like everything that you cook.”
