Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Actually, what Gu Qingyao did not know was that while she had been acting, Mo Beihan had also been acting!

In matters like these, Mo Beihan was more merciless.

Gu Qingyao was just a delicate young girl. She had been well taught from young, and was obedient and quiet. Later, after the incident, she grew even more timid and hid at home.

As she grew older, the Gu family became richer. She was a pampered young girl from an important family, who had to put up with rumors and gossip about herself. She was hardhearted enough to deal with these matters, but her methods lacked viciousness.

Also, the reborn Gu Qingyao was only fifteen. She did not have many connections or much power.

But Mo Beihan was different.

He had plenty of experience. He had been a powerful and important man in his previous life. In this life, he was still a successful man. His methods were much more vicious than those of Gu Qingyao.

Of course, he knew what was going on in the Gu family. In his previous life, Zhang Xiaohui had caused him and Yao Yao to suffer deeply. In this life, he certainly would not allow the girl he liked to be bullied.

He had already noticed that something was amiss when Zhang Xiaohui continually made trips to town. He also knew about Wang Guozhu.

During this period, Zhang Xiaohui and Wang Guozhu’s resources were provided, not just by Gu Qingyao, but also by Mo Beihan.

Mo Beihan had devised a way to give Wang Guozhu and Zhang Xiaohui even more money. He also found someone to deliberately lure them to the city to have even more fun. So, at that moment, Zhang Xiaohui and Wang Guozhu were in the city!

Wang Guozhu had been transferred there for work, and would return in a few days. Zhang Xiaohui had plenty of cash and coupons and wanted to go too, so they went together.

They had not found Zhang Xiaohui, but people had seen her and she seemed to be especially flush with cash. This news was even juicier.

That day, Mo Beihan was returning on his bicycle. He was deliberately making a trip to the Qing River Brigade. At that moment, Gu Qingyao and her grandparents were at Wang Mingtao’s house. Zhang Xiaohui had not been found, so everyone was discussing the matter.

Wang Mingtao in particular sensed that things were about to go awry. He wanted to swiftly conclude the matter. If things were as he suspected, it would reflect badly on the entire brigade.

In these times, the relationships between men and women were governed by strict rules, so Wang Mingtao was very worried.

Mo Beihan entered and greeted everyone. He looked at Gu Qingyao and said, “Haven’t you been searching for your mother lately? You don’t need to search any further. She’s in the city!”

City!

Everyone was stunned.

Before they could recover their wits, Mo Beihan continued to say to Gu Qingyao, “I had some errands to run in the city and saw her from afar. I was in the middle of something and had someone with me, so I did not have a chance to call out to her.

“By the time I was done and went looking for her, I couldn’t find her any longer. I don’t know where she is.”

“When I saw her, she and your elder sister were emerging from a department store. They were wearing new clothes and carrying many parcels. They looked like they had bought many things! Did your father give her a lot of money before he left? She bought so many things, she must have spent a lot of money!”

Gu Qingyao was shocked!

Really?

Elder Brother Beihan had really seen her?

But she had no time to think about that. She hurriedly said, “No, my father did not give us much money. In fact, he doesn’t have that much money at all.

“My older uncles and cousins live outside the village and their living expenses are very high. My older cousins are growing up. Their last letter said that my aunts are all pinching and saving so they can get married. The last time they sent some things over, they were all things they had saved to get. There is no money at home at all.”
