Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The watch that Gu Jinhang was wearing was certainly from a top brand. It was a limited edition watch from Patek Phillipe, and Gu Qingyao had bought it for him overseas. It was a very beautiful piece.

Gu Jinhang was considered to be very outstanding among his generation in the Gu family. To the outside world, he was the Gu family representative to the younger generation. Gu Qingyao was evidently willing to spend money on him and help him boost his image.

Now that he had reached his current position through his own abilities, he needed something special in keeping with his position. Gu Qingyao had always been very generous towards her older cousins. Of course, she would not be stingy about things like that.

Her older cousins in the Qiao family all had such things. Gu Qingyao obviously was willing to give her older cousins in the Gu family nice things too.

It was not just Gu Jinhang. She had given one to Oldest Cousin, Gu Jinye and Fourth Cousin, Gu Jinfeng too.

But Gu Qingyao had not bought watches for Third and Fifth Cousin.

She had bought watches for them before.

Many years ago, Gu Qingyao had bought a branded watch for Third Cousin. At that time, it was also a luxury item!

But she could not keep giving him such things. Third Cousin lived a simple life; he did not need many such accessories.

Second Cousin did not ask Grandma for money. He bought it with his own money.

In this world, status and position were mysterious things.

Gu Qingyao was the Gu familys granddaughter. Her status was derived from the status of the men in the Gu family.

The achievements of her uncles and older cousins caused her own status to rise. In this respect, Gu Jinhang had contributed a lot to the family.

Without him, everyones status in the family would be greatly reduced.

So Gu Qingyao was naturally willing to spend a little more on this cousin.

It was true that the money belonged to Gu Jinhang. He had obtained it using his own abilities.

But Gu Jinxuan frowned. Youre bluffing. How much can Second Cousin be earning? Hes been in university for the past few years. How could he possibly have so much money to buy a watch? I saw that Second Cousin has more than one branded watch. If it wasnt our grandparents, who else could have given him the money?

Surely, it cant be you, Younger Cousin? Younger Cousin! You mustnt play favorites. Im your older cousin too. Youve bought so many gifts for Second Cousin. Why dont you give me anything!

Gu Qingyao narrowed her eyes. To be honest, she really did not like this cousin!

Relations.h.i.+ps were a two-way street. Second Cousin doted on her and worried that he did not give her enough. He was busy building the Gu familys position, working hard to gain a promotion, and also worried that Mo Beihans overseas empire was so large that the Gu family would not be able to provide her with an adequate dowry.

If Gu Qingyao had not counseled him, Second Cousin would not only be busy with his own work but also thinking of ways to make more money!

Gu Jinhang had never asked her for anything.

Gu Qingyao suppressed her anger and put a smile on her face. Fifth Cousin, is it nice for you, an older cousin, to ask me for things? Shouldnt you be giving your younger cousin presents?

Gu Jinxuans expression stiffened!

But he was her cousin after all, and Gu Qingyao did not want to strain their relations.h.i.+p for fear that it would be counterproductive.

She smiled and said, Besides, Second Cousin is very rich. He earned his money himself. Neither I nor our grandparents gave him the money.

Theyre brothers! They will probably work together in the future. Second Cousin will rise through the ranks of the government while Fourth Cousin will make money. Second Cousin has been very busy making sure that Fourth Cousin will have supporters in China when he returns home to start his own business. He has achieved such a high position at a young age. He certainly did not accomplish that overnight.

Second Cousin provides Fourth Cousin with status, so Fourth Cousin earns money for him to spend! Theyre brothers; of course, they help each other!

Gu Jinxuans expression flickered.
