Especially in ten years' time, his paintings would have the highest price in an auction among the painters of this generation.

This was a moving treasure trove that she met!

In the remaining time, Gu Qingyao prepared the items attentively. She made a trip to Old Master Yang's every two days and always returned with a pile of treasures.

She stayed in the capital for another ten days before finally packing her luggage and taking the train back home.

Mo Beihan had already been wistful while waiting in the provincial capital. His little wife! She's finally coming back!

He couldn't wait anymore!

Gu Qingyao sent a telegram in advance, so Mo Beihan knew when she would arrive. She especially calculated the time to arrive when he was on his break time.

When she arrived, Mo Beihan happened to be on his break.

He had already been waiting at the train station since early. When Mo Beihan saw Gu Qingyao with a little luggage from afar, he wished dearly that he could go toward her and embrace her.

What a pity!

This was a conservative era! He could not do this.

Seeing Gu Qingyao, Mo Beihan stood in front of her excitedly. “Yao Yao…”

Gu Qingyao smiled. “Let's go home! We will be returning to our hometown in a few days!”

Returning to their hometown was great!

Once they return to their hometown, it would be the new year which meant that she would be 18 years old. She can marry at 18!

When the couple reached home, Mo Beihan immediately hugged Gu Qingyao and twirled in circles. “You're finally back. I couldn't wait anymore!

“Let me hug you quickly. A good hug!”

Mo Beihan truly missed her immensely as she had left for so long. Now that she was back, he was naturally extremely delighted!

“All right, all right. Don't mess around anymore. Put me down quickly.”

She just had a long train ride, and now that she was being twirled in circles by him, she was giddy!

Mo Beihan put her down quickly. His heart ached dearly at the sight of her exhausted face.

“You must be tired from traveling to and fro! Hurry, wash up and take a nap first.”

Without saying anything, Mo Beihan immediately urged Gu Qingyao to wash up before pulling her to the bedroom for her to have a good sleep.

Gu Qingyao was indeed tired from the long train ride. Being embraced in Mo Beihan's arms, she fell asleep in no time.

When she woke up, a whole afternoon had already pa.s.sed, and the sky had darkened!

“It's so late already?”

Gu Qingyao looked up and mumbled dazedly.

Beside her, Mo Beihan propped his head on a hand and chuckled. “So be it if it is late. If you have not slept enough, you can sleep a while more!”

Having his wife sleeping beside him was the best feeling!

Gu Qingyao looked at him. “I'm hungry!”

Mo Beihan replied immediately, “You can sleep awhile more then. I'll cook for you.”

Gu Qingyao pulled him and said, “It's not like I don't have food with me.”

She hurriedly got out of bed and went to the living room with Mo Beihan to eat. There were many cooked foods in her inters.p.a.ce that she could eat directly when she was tired and did not wish to cook.

Gu Qingyao only stayed in the provincial capital for a day before heading straight back to her hometown in the Qing River Brigade. However, Mo Beihan did not follow Gu Qingyao as he needed to return home next spring to prepare for the wedding. He needed to take a leave, so he might as well have stayed to work during this period.

Talking about the wedding, Mo Beihan was actually a little torn about it.

He wished to give his Yao Yao the best and wanted to organise a grand wedding. That meant that it would be best to marry her after he returns to the Mo family.

However, he could not wait to marry her.

A struggle!
