Chapter 654: The Unfortunate Bai Youran (1)

The Qiao family was not as difficult as Gu Qingyao had imagined. In fact, they were one happy family!
Although the past eighteen years had been cruel to her parents, they had already passed. They did not have much time to lose.
Gu Qingyao hoped that the situation would change quickly, so she could bring her mother back to see her father.
So during this time, she did not want to quibble over who was right or wrong. She wanted to build good relationships with her mother’s family so that when she brought her mother back, it would reduce the obstacles to her parents reuniting.
The two old folks in the Qiao family felt very guilty towards their daughter, and they treated Gu Qingyao in the same way. If circumstances had not prevented them from returning to China for so many years, they would certainly have looked for the child.
Now that the girl was still alive and had come to look for them, they focused on how to make it up to Gu Qingyao.
Gu Qingyao instantly became the Qiao family’s little princess.
Qiao Yuying slept for two hours before she awoke. During that time, Gu Qingyao kept her company in the Qiao house and made a call to Qin Zhiyuan to tell him what had happened.
Qin Zhiyuan was somewhat surprised by the Qiao family’s reaction, but he sighed with relief!
“I can stop worrying then. But, Yao Yao, I must mention something. I feel that that Huo Lin is a hypocrite. He is determined to have your mother, and for years, he has maintained an image of being devoted to her. This has given his companies a good reputation.
“But he has had two wives, many mistresses, and several illegitimate sons. Although the women all look like your mother and others say that his actions show how deeply he loves your mother, the fact is that he has many women.
“Your existence affects his family. His children covet Qiao Jewelry’s assets. They’re waiting for their father to marry your mother so that they can divide up Qiao’s Jewelry! Now that you have emerged, they may attack you. Be careful!
Gu Qingyao’s heart warmed at his words!
In high society, being a busybody was taboo!
Right now, from Qin Zhiyuan’s point of view, not mentioning Huo Lin’s relationship with her mother was the best course of action to take. That way he could avoid being involved.
He was clearly thinking about her when he reminded her.
Gu Qingyao smiled. “Thank you, Uncle Qin, I will be careful. Don’t worry, I’ve already made my preparations before I decided to approach the Qiao family. I will be careful!”
When Qin Zhiyuan heard the child’s self-assured tone, he did not know whether she was really capable or entirely ignorant.
But he thought that since this girl’s medical skills had already surpassed that of his parents and that she could produce such a superior piece of raw jade, then she must be no ordinary girl.
The girl had just arrived and did not know anyone. She could not possibly have bought the raw jade after she came overseas. In that case, had she brought the raw jade with her from China?
How had she brought it along?
Qin Zhiyuan could not figure it out. But he did not bother to quibble over it. It was good that the girl was so resourceful. His mother would not think so highly of her if she did not have some ability.
Besides, how could her medical skills surpass his mother, who was a famous Jiangnan physician? Since Qin Zhiyuan could not figure it out, he did not bother to think about it.
“All right, as long as you’re aware of this. If you need anything, you can always let me know. Don’t forget, you are not just the Qiao family’s granddaughter, but also my family’s little granddaughter! Your teacher is not here now, so I will take care of you!”
