She had been quiet since she stepped over the threshold. It was not appropriate for her to interfere with the Mo family’s affairs. She just focused on treating Old Master Mo.
Even now, she was still bending over the Old Master, steadily giving him acupuncture.
Jiang Hongying’s expression stiffened. “What did you say?”
“I said I gave him the three hundred thousand yuan.”
Jiang Hongying was furious. “Just because you say that you gave it to him does not mean that it’s true. It’s three hundred thousand yuan, not three thousand yuan. Where would you find so much money to pay his debts? You should consider your own worth before you make such boasts.”

Jiang Hongying recognized Gu Qingyao. After the Qiao family’s status was revealed, Gu Qingyao had attracted a lot of attention in the capital. But to Jiang Hongying, Gu Qingyao was merely the Qiao family’s stepdaughter and the Gu family’s daughter. The Qiao family certainly would not dote on her. She was doing pretty well if Qiao Yuying did not deal with her severely.
Gu Qingyao cocked her head and said nonchalantly. “What is a mere three hundred thousand yuan to the Qiao family? We can even afford three million, much less three hundred thousand yuan.”
Jiang Hongying laughed. “Do you think the Qiao family’s money is yours? Who are you to use it as you please? You’re just a stepdaughter.”
Gu Qingyao smiled. “The Qiao family’s money may not be mine, but the money that belongs to Qiao’s Jewelry is definitely mine. I’m the sole heir to Qiao’s Jewelry!
“As for my cousins, uncles and grandparents, if I need a little money to make ends meet, I just have to say the word!”
“You’re just a stepdaughter, how can you be the sole heir to Qiao’s Jewelry? You…”
“I forgot to tell you that I’m my parents’ biological daughter. Fortunately, Old Master Bai is here and can act as a witness. My parents told Old Master Bai themselves. Young Master Bai was present too, right?”

Gu Qingyao turned and cocked her head at Old Master Bai and Bai Fei.
Everyone looked at them.
Old Master Bai and Bai Fei’s expressions immediately stiffened. At the moment, they regretted coming to the Mo house.

Gu Qingyao just looked at him. If he did not say anything, she would just keep looking at him.

Old Master Bai looked rather awkward, but he could not refute something like that.
“It’s true… Miss Qiao told me herself that this young girl is her biological daughter.”
Jiang Hongying was bewildered!
Everyone knew how wealthy the Qiao family was. But everyone thought that this girl was a stepdaughter from the Gu family. Who knew!
She was actually the Qiao family’s granddaughter!
“That can’t be right. Why should you pay his debts. What is your motive…”
Gu Qingyao interrupted Jiang Hongying before she could finish. “I forgot to tell you that Brother Beihan and I are engaged. We got engaged seven years ago, back in our hometown, and we’re getting married next month. The invitations are ready, and we will send them to everyone soon.”
Her words struck Jiang Hongying and Mo Yunhao like a bolt out of the blue. Their brains were ringing, and they could not think straight.
Engaged?
Mo Beihan was engaged?
He even got engaged seven years ago?
Why did they not know about this?

Gu Qingyao ignored their shock and continued. She was prepared to deal with the problem for once and for all.
“Mo Beihan is the most suitable person to be in charge of the Mo family and its resources. He has the entire Qiao family group to guide him. The Qiao family has settled in the capital and is looking to partner with a local family. The Mo family is naturally the best choice.
“My teacher is Jiang Yiru, the famous doctor from Jiangnan. She is also the mother of Qin Zhiyuan, the head of the Qin family, which has also just moved to the capital. The Qin family has always been on good terms with the Qiao family overseas and are also looking for partners.
“If I’m the next mistress of the Mo family, the Qiao family and the Qin family will happily hand the partnership over to the Mo family. Is this sufficient reason for Mo Beihan to be the Mo family’s successor?”
