Chapter 897: Dispelling Gossip (4)
Gu Yunshen said nonchalantly, “Anyway, the child wasn’t mine, so I didn’t care if she abandoned the child or killed her. Yao Yao is my daughter!
“Now, it looks like she didn’t abandon the child but instead placed her in a rich family to enjoy the life of a wealthy young lady!”
Old Master Bai, “…”
Bai Fei: “…”
Bai Chi: “…”
At that moment, Qiao Yuying entered the living room and sat down next to Gu Yunshen with a smile. “Yao Yao is indeed my biological daughter. That year, my family ran into trouble and went overseas. But my husband did not know about it and thought that I had met with an accident. Zhang Xiaohui deliberately latched on to him. He passed her off as one of the twins to legitimately bring her into the Gu family as his daughter.”
When Bai Chi and Bai Fei saw Qiao Yuying in the flesh, they lost all hope.
They had seen Gu Qingyao and knew what she looked like. She and Qiao Yuying looked very similar. One could tell at a glance that they were mother and daughter.
Qiao Yuying had already said so. She claimed that the girl was her biological daughter, and the Bais had no proof, so they had no choice but to give up!
On the way home, the Bai family was still mourning the fact that Gu Qingyao was not their child.
Gu Qingyao was in the kitchen. Once she knew that the Bai family members had been sent packing, she laughed and said, “They must be dreaming!”
Mo Beihan was standing next to her, chopping vegetables. “Of course they’re dreaming! Out of the blue, they acquired another tool to make a marriage alliance, and it even involves the Qiaos.”
“What are you intending to do about Zhang Xiaohui?” Gu Qingyao asked.
Mo Beihan put the cut vegetables on a plate. Yao Yao said she would make him dumplings with these green, tender chives.
“I’m not intending to do much. The Bai family will not let them off. My men have ended things swiftly and erased all evidence. The Bai family won’t trace it back to me.”
Gu Qingyao nodded. She understood!
When the Bai family realized they could not make Gu Qingyao their pawn and confirmed that their child had been exchanged, they would certainly get even with Zhang Xiaohui!
Gu Qingyao finished up a few dishes as she asked, “Are we really moving out after our wedding, or are we going to stay at the Mo house for a while?”
Mo Yunhao’s incident had broken Old Master Mo and Grandma Mo’s hearts. Mo Chengrui and the other children had not yet grown up. The two old folks had pinned all their hopes on Mo Beihan. They surely would not let him go.
Mo Beihan lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time before he replied, “We’ll stay at the family house for a while! Grandfather has been in poor health lately, and Grandma is not doing so well either. You’re well-versed in medicine, can you look after their health for a while?
“The marital house I prepared earlier still belongs to us. If we want to, we can stay there in the future and visit the family home often.
“The rooms in the Mo house backyard have been renovated. We won’t live with Mo Yunhao. You just have to keep my grandparents company when you have time. Our rooms will have their own kitchen, and you can do your own cooking.”
Gu Qingyao nodded. “All right, I understand!”
Both Grandfather Mo and Grandma Mo had been very good to her and Mo Beihan in their previous life. They were old now – it was only right that they take care of them.

Mo Beihan stayed there that afternoon and had dumplings with the Qiao family before he went back and called his subordinates.
“Hello, Boss!”
“What’s happening on Mo Yunhao’s side?”
The other man smiled. “Boss, don’t worry. Everything is under control.”
“Uhm! You can make things public now!”
