She remembered what had happened last night. She and Mo Beihan had talked openly. So even if Mo Beihan would not act inappropriately, he did not need to sleep somewhere else either. It was most likely that he would sleep next to her.

But there was no one next to her.

Gu Qingyao got up and checked the living room, but there was no one there either.

She frowned. Could something have happened?

Which caused him to stay away all night?

Gu Qingyao shrugged and returned to her room. She never imagined that Mo Beihan was sleeping in the study, and that her third brother was here.

She was not tired anymore when she returned to her room, so she went straight into her inters.p.a.ce.

There was about ten acres of land in her inters.p.a.ce, and she managed them very well. The ground was easily cultivated, the soil was of superior quality, and there was very little gra.s.s growing there.

Besides medicinal herbs, she grew some vegetables and fruits.

She had always saved some of these things. Besides what they ate themselves, she kept the rest for the time when she would open a food company or a restaurant in the future.

Things grew too well here. During the right season, after the fruit trees mature, they would continually flower and bear fruit. Once the fruits matured and were picked, they would bear more fruit. If she did not pick them, they would just hang there without over-ripening. They would always be fresh and juicy.

Almost every night, Gu Qingyao would come here to pick some fruits and vegetables. But she could not pick as fast as they ripened.

She had no choice. The area was so big that she could not keep up if she worked by herself.

Gu Qingyao was exhausted after working hard for a long time. She sprawled on the veranda in front of her house and said, “Ow, I can finally drag Elder Brother Beihan here to do the manual labor. This is exhausting!”

Now that Mo Beihan knew, she could do what she had done in the past, which was to drag Mo Beihan in to do the manual work. That would be wonderful!

Gu Qingyao rested for a while, then she decided to forget about the fruits. She would wait until Mo Beihan returned.

She went to pick the medicinal herbs. These were her treasures!

Medicinal herbs could be left to grow in the inters.p.a.ce. She also could not keep them in the warehouse in her inters.p.a.ce because time stopped there. They would retain their freshness in the living inters.p.a.ce, and the herbs would remain tender even after leaving them there for a long time. So the best solution was to pick and dry them. When she had processed them, she would store them in the warehouse of the inters.p.a.ce.

After bustling around for a while, Gu Qingyao tidied up and went into the room to practice her calligraphy and drawing. She practiced every day. Even after she moved to town, she would periodically send her works back for her teacher to take a look and ask for pointers.

Actually, her abilities had far exceeded her present standard. But she could not reveal that too soon. After all, her teacher was well aware of her abilities.

But now, she was improving much more rapidly than before. She believed… that her teacher would get used to her unusually fast progress.

When everything was done, Gu Qingyao bathed and changed her clothes before leaving the inters.p.a.ce.

It was only 5 am in the outer world. It was not yet completely bright. Gu Qingyao was rather tired, so she went back to bed.

When she woke up again, it was already 8 am.

Gu Qingyao stretched and rubbed her eyes. She heard some noise in the living room and knew that Mo Beihan must be back, so she stumbled out blearily.

“Brother Beihan…”

Her voice was soft and lazy, and still sleepy.

But Gu Jinlin was in the living room and he was shocked when he saw Gu Qingyao!

He stared at the girl and asked, “Yao Yao, what are you wearing?”
