Chapter 508: This World Is Full Of Ill Intentions Towards Bachelors!
Mo Beihan was stunned!
He truly had not expected Gu Qingyao to speak to him like that. The Yao Yao of his previous life had never flirted with him!
How adorable!
He wanted to hug her again!
Mo Beihan was so delighted he was beaming. He could not restrain himself as he moved a step closer towards her. But before he could reach out, Gu Qingyao backed away in fright.
“What are you doing! Someone will see us!”
Mo Beihan: “…”
This dampened Mo Beihan's excitement. This was a very conservative era, and it was not as liberal as later times when young lovers could hold hands on the street or even exchange a kiss or two.
In these times, they would be accused of public indecency if they stood a little closer…
Mo Beihan felt very gloomy!
In his previous life, he had pursued her all his life but had not managed to marry her. They had finally gotten engaged in this life, but they still had to maintain their distance.
It was difficult to be a bachelor!
He felt that the world was full of ill intentions towards bachelors!
“Don't worry. Of course, I will only be good to you. I am definitely yours.”
He had no choice but to coax his wife.
Gu Qingyao smiled and batted her eyelids at him.
Mo Beihan said, “Sun Mei is plotting against your family. She doesn't just want to marry your older cousins, she has something even more wicked in mind. It would not be such a big deal if she just wanted a better life, but I certainly will not let such behavior pa.s.s.
“Especially when she hurt you so badly in our previous life.
“Yao Yao, I sought out this w.a.n.g Jie because I seem to recall his father-in-law from my past life. I have never met him, but I heard from a friend that he was very arrogant and greedy. Later, he was accused of wrongdoing and fired from the factory. His entire family was implicated, and I think all of them lost their jobs. It was tragic. This will happen either next year or the subsequent year. I can't remember the actual time!”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
He had only heard about this incident from his friends because it had been a particularly tragic one. The father-in-law's decline had been steep and swift. He had been so impressive, only to fall into a pit in an instant. The contrast had been too great.
He actually did not know w.a.n.g Jie, but when they went to town to look for a target, he had coincidentally found out that w.a.n.g Jie was the man's son-in-law. When he investigated further, he discovered what w.a.n.g Jie was looking for, which was why he thought of marrying Sun Mei to him.
Gu Qingyao was shocked for a moment, then she giggled.
“Brother Beihan, you are too naughty!”
The w.a.n.g family were about to move over and the entire family would depend on that father-in-law. If something so drastic happened to the father-in-law, the w.a.n.g family would certainly be implicated!
Brother Beihan probably had not interacted much with these people in his previous life, but he had heard his friends mention it. After decades had pa.s.sed, he did not remember the details.
However…
If not next year, then the subsequent year?
That meant that Sun Mei would not enjoy many happy years after marriage before the w.a.n.g family was destroyed?
What would she do then?
Would she come back to work and earn work points?
Gu Qingyao looked forward to it!
Mo Beihan was happy to see the girl so delighted. “Yao Yao, the new year holiday is almost over. Why not take a trip to the provincial capital with me? Then we can make a trip to Nancheng and come back after the autumn harvest is over. What do you think?”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
This fellow was so bold.
Come back after the autumn harvest?
The new year had just pa.s.sed. If she left now and returned after the autumn harvest, that meant she would be away for more than half a year!
Gu Qingyao shook her head. “No, I can't leave now!”
