When Mo Beihan saw Gu Qingyao, he hurriedly said, “Yao Yao, come and see how my grandfather is. Hurry!”
Gu Qingyao checked the Old Master. His color was poor, but she did not think it was too serious.
“The Old Master has suffered a stroke. He’d been overly excited, and he cannot move half his body. In the future… he certainly won’t be able to move with ease.”
Mo Beihan’s heart sank, and he felt even worse. “Then… can he recover?”
Gu Qingyao consoled him. “Don’t worry too much. It’s not as serious as you think. The Old Master’s leg and arm still have some sensation, and he can move them a little. I’ll perform acupuncture first, then with exercise, he might be able to recover. Don’t worry too much.”
Mo Beihan nodded and let Gu Qingyao quickly treat the Old Master.
Gu Qingyao was opening her medical kit as she said, “Only you and Grandma Mo should remain! The rest should leave.”
Of course, Mo Beihan obeyed her and asked the rest to leave. Grandma Mo was rather worried. She knew that Gu Qingyao’s medical skills were top-notch, but she had never witnessed them before. Over the years, she had eaten many herbal dishes that Gu Qingyao had created and her health had improved greatly. But this was the first time she saw Gu Qingyao treating someone to save their life.
“This… Yao Yao, she…”
“Grandma, don’t worry. Yao Yao is a very good doctor. In her six years overseas, she accompanied Grandma Qiao to treat patients, and nothing has ever gone wrong. I won’t harm Grandfather.”
“Oh… Oh…” Grandma Mo did not have anything more to say.
Mo Chengrui, Mo Yunhao and the others were about to leave when Jiang Hongying, Mo Huai and the members of the other branch of the family arrived. Young Uncle Mo, Mo Wei’s family also hurried over.
“Stop, what are you doing to the Old Master? Who gave you permission to act?”
Jiang Hongying rushed in and immediately started shouting at Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao.
“What is she doing?”
The Qiao family had become very famous in the capital lately, and even Jiang Hongying recognized Gu Qingyao. But she still did not know that Gu Qingyao was going to marry Mo Beihan.

Jiang Hongying and led the others in, making a big fuss as she did so.
“Mo Beihan, are you crazy? Old Master is already in this state. Not only are you not seeking medical treatment, but you’re letting a little girl fool around? Are you intending to kill the Old Master?”
Old Master Mo was still very alert. He knew what state his body was in and was afraid that things would become worse. It would be a disaster if he could not even speak.
So he ignored Jiang Hongying. When he saw that everyone from the other family branch had arrived, he hurriedly spoke, “You’re all here now. I have something to announce…”
“Old Master, don’t worry. Just get well soon. The Mo family will be fine. Yunhao is around. He will certainly take good care of the Mo family. You just need to relax and take care of your health.”
The members of the other branch immediately looked at Jiang Hongying.
In Old Master Mo’s generation, he was the oldest son of direct descent. He had two younger brothers and three cousins who were still living and healthy.
In the past, it had been very hard for a wealthy family like that to survive in society. They had only survived because these members had split from the family.
But Old Master Mo was very capable. Although they had suffered heavy losses, he used all his ingenuity and managed to preserve most of the Mo family’s power.
Now that society had opened up, everyone had slowly begun to gather again.
Old Master Mo was old, and no one really bothered with these big families anymore. So the Mo family was at a crucial juncture in its development.. The next master would be critical to the Mo family.
