Chapter 627: Mother’s News (2)

Qiao Yuying!

That’s right! Wasn’t it very similar to Qiao Yuying!

Her features and demeanor. The more he looked, the more similar they seemed.

Qin Zhiyuan remained silent for a moment and asked after much deliberation, “Why… are you looking for her?”

This tone meant that he knew her?

Gu Qingyao was delighted!

“I have something very important to ask her. I… Don’t worry, I don’t mean any harm. It’s just… Before she went abroad, she had a very good friend, but they lost contact afterward. The friend only knows that she went abroad but doesn’t know where she is exactly. This time, I had the opportunity to go overseas, and the friend wanted me to find out about her and pass her something as well. Can you let me meet her?”

Gu Qingyao was very emotional. Her greatest objective for coming here was to find her mother. She originally thought that it would be an extremely difficult task, but who would have thought that she managed to receive news of her not long after arriving here. This was truly a surprise!

But Qin Zhiyuan did not agree immediately.

He remained quiet.

Qiao Yuying was the Young Lady of the Qiao family, the prized treasure of the family and a renowned, able woman in the business world. With her unrivaled looks, she still had numerous pursuers even though she was currently in her middle age. One of them even pursued her for more than twenty years, from China to overseas.

Gu Qingyao’s eyes were too similar to Qiao Yuying. Their relationship…

Seeing that Qin Zhiyuan did not reply and was staring at her face, Gu Qingyao immediately understood. Her father had told her that she was very much like her mother, and if Qin Zhiyuan knew Mother, he definitely realized something.

Gu Qingyao immediately said, “Uncle Qin, to tell you the truth, the Gu family has a similar status as the Qin family in the country. I grew up in the countryside from a young age, and there’s a cowshed near my house. Many old masters and old madams raise cows there!

“Many of their children went abroad, and they don’t have news of them. Everyone is expecting me to bring back news of their children from this trip! There’s one more person. His last name is Guo, and he used to live in Shanghai back then. His family owned a business and could be said to be a capitalist family.

“He is called Guo Shizhong, and he is 46 this year. Have you heard of him?”

Guo Shizhong was the son of Grandpa Guo and Grandma Lin Wanyin and his reason for leaving was different from Qin Zhiyuan’s. Qin Zhiyuan was not in Jiangnan back then, and he went abroad at the last minute. Had he not left then, there was probably no chance for him to anymore. It could be said that he had no other options.

And given the situation in Jiangnan, even if he did return, it would serve no purpose.

He still had a wife and children. His children were still very young back then, and he could not abandon them.

But Guo Shizhong was different. He was the classic type of person who fled for his own life while abandoning his parents. Not only did he abandon his parents, he even harmed them: Together with his younger sister, he reported his own parents in return for a chance to have a breather. Subsequently, he took a portion of the family’s gold and assets with him and fled alone.

While his younger sister married one of those people who harmed Old Master Guo and Lin Wanyin. To date, her husband was still doing these dirty deals, and his victims were mostly the acquaintances of the Guo family – those whom she used to call Uncles.

Old Master Guo and Lin Wanyin were extremely disappointed with their children and did not have any hope for them.

But when Gu Qingyao went overseas, Old Master Guo and Lin Wanyin still told her about their son, Guo Shizhong, who was overseas.

They did not have other requests and simply wanted to know if he was still alive. They even reminded Gu Qingyao to be careful if she met him because someone who even entrapped their own parents was really not a good person!
