Chapter 1022: A Present For You (2)
Gu Qingyao bellowed in rage. Everyone in the courtyard was so frightened they dared not make a sound. Silence fell over the yard.
Zhou Furong was so terrified that she turned pale. She did not dare to say anything anymore. Even Great-aunt Mo, who was usually so domineering, was now s.h.i.+vering and huddled together with Zhou Furong and the others. The entire family was silent.
Gu Qingyao laughed coldly. She put away Mo Beihan’s gun and steadied him.
Mo Beihan had drunk a lot of alcohol that day. Although he still knew what he was doing, being drunk was unpleasant. He had been in a pretty good mood when he was looking for Gu Qingyao but had encountered so many irritating people. They made such a fuss that he felt annoyed.
Mo Beihan leaned on Gu Qingyao’s shoulder and nuzzled her. He said somewhat pitifully, “They’re so noisy. They’re making my head ache!”
Gu Qingyao rubbed his temples. “You’ve had so much alcohol, of course your head aches.”
She glanced at Old Master Mo. “Grandma, Brother Beihan has had too much to drink. I’ll help him back to the room to rest. You help Grandfather back! We’ll settle things here.”
Old Master Mo did not say anything as Grandma Mo dragged him off.
Old Master Mo left with Grandma Mo. Gu Qingyao glanced at Steward Zhong, who was in the yard. “Steward!”
Steward Zhong hurried forward. “Madam!”
“Bring these people to the house in the suburbs. Get someone to watch them. No one is to step outside of the house without permission from the Master or me.”
“Yes!”
With that, Gu Qingyao helped Mo Beihan up the stairs.
After they had gone upstairs and closed the room door, they could still hear Great-aunt Mo, Zhou Furong and Sun Huihui crying and screaming in the yard.
“I won’t go! I won’t go! I’m a daughter of the Mo family. This is my home…”
“Let me go… this is my home…”
Bang!
Gu Qingyao closed the room door. Finally, they had some peace!
She helped Mo Beihan to lie down. He had really drunk a lot of alcohol. His face was flushed, and he reeked of alcohol.
Gu Qingyao helped him take off his jacket and remove his s.h.i.+rt. Then she took off his shoes and pushed his legs onto the bed.
She got a hot towel and wiped his face. Mo Beihan opened his eyes to see the girl taking care of him.
“That girl seduced me!” he said pathetically.
Gu Qingyao opened his s.h.i.+rt and wiped his body.
“I know!”
“That girl seduced me!” Mo Beihan’s voice rose.
“I know. That’s why I was so angry I almost shot her mother. Really, how dare she seduce my husband. She’s asking for it!”
Mo Beihan smiled. He was finally satisfied. He closed his eyes and lay there obediently while Gu Qingyao changed him into comfortable pajamas.
When she finished changing him, he complained of a headache. Gu Qingyao had no choice but to sit at the head of the bed and let him lie in her lap while she ma.s.saged his head.
Gu Qingyao was a doctor, so she knew where the nerves in the head were. Her ma.s.sages were very soothing.
Mo Beihan closed his eyes and said smilingly, “How nice!”
Gu Qingyao was amused. He must really be drunk to act so childishly!
After she had ma.s.saged him for a while, Mo Beihan reached out and pulled Gu Qingyao in front of him, then embraced her.
“Yao Yao!”
“Mhm!”
“I made a lot of money today!”
“Oh? You’re so clever?”
Mo Beihan hugged her smugly. “I bought a few houses for you near Main Street in the city center.”
Gu Qingyao thought about the little districts near Main Street. She vaguely recalled that a premium district had been built near Main Street recently.
“Why are you buying me houses for no reason? We aren’t going to live there.”
