BXBX NOVEL Chapter 718 - Back To China (2)
Gu Jinfeng rolled his eyes. This was such an obvious ruse. His younger cousin would never fall for that.
Mo Beihan continued, “It’s been six years. Everyone else has returned, except you. You had better make a trip back soon.
“More importantly…”
“What?” Gu Qingyao asked.
Mo Beihan glanced downstairs at the living room. “More importantly, our parents have not seen each other for so long. How many years have they missed? Now they are almost middle-aged, and the best of their youth is over.
“Now that they are finally together, shouldn’t you… give them some time to enjoy themselves together?”
Gu Qingyao thought about it and nodded. “It’s true. I should let my parents have some space. They have missed so many years.”
Mo Beihan laughed. “That’s right! Let’s go back to China. Think about it! You’re their daughter. With you here, even if they want to go out and have fun, they will feel obliged to bring you along, won’t they? After all, you are a family of three! Your mother was not with you in the past, so they must feel that they have to make it up to you. As long as you are here, your parents will certainly bring you along whenever they go out to make it up to you. Then how will they have their own space?”
Gu Qingyao batted her eyes. That did make sense.
Mo Beihan smiled. “So! You had better come back with me! Also, something has happened back in China, and your parents won’t be able to keep you. That also gives you a good excuse to let them have some space. What do you think?”
Gu Qingyao was silent, then nodded. “You’re right. Let’s go back first! Or with Mother’s personality, she will insist on bringing me wherever she goes with Father. I don’t want to be a third wheel!
“I might as well go back first, so my father can have free rein to be a good son-in-law and please my grandparents. We’ll go back and make arrangements so that when my grandparents and the others are ready, my father can bring them back.”
Mo Beihan immediately smiled. “That’s right! There are so many others in your family waiting for you! Think of your grandparents. They haven’t seen you for a long time. And Eldest Cousin and his child! Don’t you want to go home and see them? And Mu Mu. Mu Mu must be so handsome by now!”
Gu Qingyao thought about her family back home and immediately longed to go home.
Just like that, Mo Beihan successfully enticed Gu Qingyao home.
Gu Jinfeng: “…”
He also wanted to go back to China, but he had not finished his studies, so he could not go back now.
When he saw his younger cousin being dragged away by that bastard Mo Beihan, Gu Jinfeng suddenly remembered how Mo Beihan always talked about the importance of education and that he should finish his Masters and doctorate. He said Gu Jinfeng was still young, his studies were the most important, and it was not urgent to go back to China and develop his career.
He also said that Yao Yao, as the younger cousin, had graduated with a doctorate, so as the older cousin he surely could not do any less, or his family back home would tease him.
Then, he had really felt that studying was very important. His younger cousin had also approved of him furthering his studies and pursuing a doctorate.
So although he had spent more time studying than Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan and was concurrently pursuing his Masters and PhD, he still had not graduated with his doctorate.
At that moment, he suddenly wondered if it was Mo Beihan’s ruse? So he could have more time to entice Gu Jinfeng’s younger cousin while he was busy studying?
