“That’s different!” Gu Jinhang argued. “You’re young, and you can do whatever you want. Yao Yao, we’re your older cousins. You are the Gu family’s daughter. No matter how difficult it is, we older cousins will not allow you to feel ashamed of your family. Remember, the Gu family will always support you and be a family that you can be proud of!
“If we say so, we will do it!”
Gu Qingyao’s eyes reddened!
She hugged Gu Jinhang’s arm and leaned on his shoulder. “My older cousins have always been wonderful, and I have always been proud of all of you. Second Cousin, I believe you will be very successful in the future… in fact, you are already successful now.
“Have you thought that while you’re secretly competing with Mo Beihan, Mo Beihan is also thinking about you in the same way? He wants to marry your younger cousin and is afraid that you will look down on him if he is not outstanding enough. That’s why he’s working so hard.
.
“Because he knows that my older cousins are all very capable and that they will never respect an ordinary man. That’s why he works so hard!”
Gu Jinhang paused. He had not considered this perspective before.
When she saw his reaction, Gu Qingyao rested her chin on his arm and looked at him with a smile. “Second Cousin, I’m so outstanding and all of you are so capable, plus I have a very wealthy mother and a group of excellent cousins.
“I also have several famous teachers, like Teacher Jiang and Teacher Zhou. I have formally become their disciple! How can Mo Beihan find anyone as outstanding as I am?”
Gu Jinhang: “…”
He felt that his younger cousin’s argument made sense.
Actually, he and his brother, Gu Jinfeng, had been competing with Mo Beihan.
He had been shocked when Gu Qingyao told him about Jin Jiang Restaurant. Later on, he thought about Mo Beihan and realized that Mo Beihan must have a great deal of quiet influence as well.
His younger cousin was about to marry such an enigmatic man. As her older cousins, they were worried that if they were not outstanding enough, Mo Beihan would feel superior and bully their younger cousin. So both he and Gu Jinfeng worked very hard to keep up with Mo Beihan.
Whether it was in terms of power or wealth, they must not lose to him!
Gu Qingyao cocked her head on one side. “Second Cousin, Brother Beihan often tells me that I have so many capable older cousins that he worries every day that you won’t be satisfied with him. Tell me, what else are you worried about?”
Gu Jinhang’s lips twitched. “Really?”
Gu Qingyao was amused. “Of course. My older cousins are so capable!”
Her flattery pleased Gu Jinhang.
He glanced at Gu Qingyao and smiled, then said suddenly, “Has Mo Beihan told you the news about Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing?”
Gu Qingyao was startled. She could not follow his train of thought. Why was he suddenly talking about them?
When Gu Jinhang saw her expression, he knew that Mo Beihan had not told her. He immediately felt rather smug. Perhaps that fellow had not found out?
Gu Qingyao asked quizzically, “Second Cousin, have you discovered something? Is Bai Youran really the one they are looking for?”
Gu Jinhang looked rather smug. “It is Bai Youran. Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing were there when the two of you beat up Bai Chi in Jin Jiang Restaurant. They saw everything. At that time, Zhang Xiaohui’s eyes were fixed on Bai Youran. Bai Youran looks a little like her.
“Ever since then, Zhang Xiaohui has been asking around for news of the Bai family. I’ve already arranged for them to meet as soon as possible!”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
