Chapter 746: A Threat Would Always be a Threat (2)
Gu Qingyao found that amusing. “It’s safe here. Nothing will happen even if it’s late. I’m not far from home. Just go and settle your things. You should be glad that I’m not beating people up.”
Mo Beihan smiled and looked at her. He suddenly drew nearer to her and smiled cunningly. “Don’t you want to ask me what I’m going to do?”
Gu Qingyao giggled and hugged his arm. She rested her head on his shoulder and said, “There’s not a need for me to ask. Anyway, it must be something important.”
Mo Beihan raised his eyebrows. “Don’t you want to see your husband being the big boss in this world?”
Gu Qingyao’s eyes sparkled. “In my eyes, you’re always the big boss who is capable of doing anything!”
Mo Beihan felt delighted with the worship from his fiancee. It felt good!
He hugged her over and kissed her on her forehead. “Then you should go back first. I will find you in a few days. I need to slowly shift my business here, so I will be busy. If I don’t have time to find you, you must come and look for me, okay?”
Gu Qingyao kissed him back and smiled, “Of course.”
Mo Beihan kissed her a few more times as her lips were sweet.
“I’ll leave first.”
“Mhm!”
After Mo Beihan left, Gu Qingyao headed home. However, she saw two familiar figures as she walked back.
Though it had been many years and the two people’s appearances changed, Gu Qingyao recognised that the two people were Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing.
Gu Qingyao was surprised. The two of them escaped from their hometown back then. In such a harsh environment, how did they manage to survive till now without a recommendation letter, food coupons or money?
It was right that kind people always had a shorter lifespan, but a threat would always be a threat!
What an irony for them to survive so long!
Gu Ruoqing and Zhang Xiaohui appeared slightly pathetic, but the clothes they were wearing were better than what normal people could afford. They must have lived a good life all these years. At least they did not need to worry about money.
Gu Ruoqing stared at the sky as it got darker and complained, “Mom, where shall we stay for the night? We don’t know anyone or anything in the capital, what can we do now at night?”
Zhang Xiaohui was illiterate, and it was difficult enough for her to bring Gu Ruoqing to the capital. The life after they escaped from their hometown was full of suffering as they did not have a recommendation letter or food coupon. It took them so many years to find the opportunity to come to the capital. It was extremely difficult!
Zhang Xiaohui said, “It’s okay. There’s hope now since we are in the capital. We will have a good life soon. For now, just suck it up!”
Gu Ruoqing looked miserable. It had not been easy for her all these years. She had been through so much when she was only in her twenties. She had even a strong desire for a good life and for money.
They needed food coupons a few years ago, but now the era had changed. They could buy anything they wanted with money. People sell goods, food and clothes everywhere. As long as they had the money, they could buy everything. She really loved the present era.
So, she needed money. She was crazy for lots of money!
“Mom, where is your friend? Is she very rich and powerful? Will she give us a good life? We can be rich after we find her?”
There was madness in Zhang Xiaohui’s eyes, “Of course. She is my last resort! We risked our lives to be in the capital. As long as we find her, we will have the best life and money for the rest of our life! We will have a high social status!”
