Gu Jinlin smiled. “Grandfather, don’t worry about them. They’re on very good terms!

“It’s just that it’s the new year, and Yao Yao is a year older. Judging from Beihan’s appearance, he will certainly want to marry Yao Yao next year when she turns eighteen. That’s why Fourth Brother can’t stand him!”

Gu Chonghua and the others immediately burst out laughing.

But when he thought of his granddaughter getting married the following year, he could not bear to let her go.

Lunch was ready and everyone waited awhile for Gu Jinfeng and Mo Beihan to return. They changed their dirty clothes and washed up before everyone ate together.

Of course, Mo Beihan ate with the Gu family.

After lunch, everyone gathered together to rest. There was nothing much to do that afternoon and the brazier in the house was lit. Besides the two younger ones who had gone to listen to Gu Chonghua tell stories, the rest of the younger folks were all there.

Including Gu Fangting.

Mo Beihan thought of Sun Mei and said to Gu Qingyao, “Has that Sun Mei been visiting you frequently?”

Gu Qingyao paused. “That’s right! Why?”

Mo Beihan recounted the incident he had encountered on the way to her house. Gu Jinfeng, Gu Jinhang, Gu Jinlin and Gu Fangting were all stunned.

Gu Fangting said in surprise, “She wanted to visit my older cousin? As if… they were on very good terms?”

Mo Beihan nodded. “That’s right, as if she’s good friends with Yao Yao. She said she hasn’t seen you for a long time and missed you, so she wanted to come here for a chat.”

Gu Fangting: “…”

Gu Qingyao frowned and said, “This is not the first time. Before that, I just ignored her. She was already behaving like that when Mu Mu and the others were at my house, or to be precise, when I first came back from the city.

“It’s not just her. Her lackey, Wang Li, did the same and sought me out many times. It was almost as if they wanted to win my approval. I thought it was very strange and avoided them many times.

“Later on… after what happened to her family, she probably did not have time to visit me, so she did not come for many days. Is she coming again today?”

Mo Beihan nodded.

Gu Jinlin rubbed his chin. “She really was here. I happened to see her outside the courtyard. She was looking for you, so I just said that you weren’t home. She wanted to come in! But I didn’t permit her to do so.

“But I find that girl rather strange. When I saw her, it was as if… she was carefully trying to please someone. She gave me goosebumps, so I quickly shooed her away.”

Mo Beihan laughed. “I didn’t expect her to come after I told her off!”

She was really determined.

But the more determined she was, the more apparent there was something fishy going on.

“Oh, that’s right!” Gu Jinlin continued. “Besides looking for Yao Yao and Ting Ting, she ended up asking me about Second Brother and Fourth Brother. She also asked me about myself. I found it very strange. But she is surely up to no good, so I chased her away.”

Gu Qingyao immediately narrowed her eyes. As a girl, she was the one who best understood what the other girls were up to. But she was puzzled. After all the recent events, she had no energy to bother with Sun Mei.

Now that Gu Jinlin mentioned it, her mind suddenly cleared.

“I think I know why she’s acting like that.”

Everyone immediately turned to look at Gu Qingyao.

Gu Qingyao looked at Mo Beihan and her older cousins. She laughed. “Brother Beihan, I remember that the girl seemed interested in you in the past? The main reason why she was so hostile towards me was because of you.”

Gu Qingyao was clear about that.
