Once Old Master Mo had acknowledged him, he naturally did not have to worry about the Zhang family anymore. The danger was past and Gu Qingyao could once again resume her peaceful life.
This time, Gu Yundong and Gu Jinlin viewed Mo Beihan with new eyes.
They had known how outstanding Mo Beihan was in the past. But this was different.
In the past, Mo Beihan was just a poor fellow from the village, who had depended on his own abilities to obtain his present achievements.
He was amazing, but this was a different story.
A family like the Zhangs had some influence in the town and had members in the capital. Although Gu Yundong knew that the Zhang family members in the capital were small fry, they could definitely oppress someone like him.
Even the Ji family was no match for the Zhang family. How had Mo Beihan managed to do it?
He must have very powerful connections.
But Mo Beihan refused to say. Although Gu Yundong and Gu Jinlin could barely contain their curiosity, they had no choice!
How had that damned fellow done it?
Even Gu Qingyao was consumed with curiosity, much less Gu Yundong.
In her estimation, Elder Brother Beihan did not have such abilities at this time. Yet he had managed to pull it off.
Mo Beihan was on leave that day and Gu Qingyao went to look for him.
The first thing they did was to go to the grocery store for some food. She had a feeling that something was amiss with Elder Brother Beihan.
She knew Mo Beihan too well and was used to her treating her well. She was used to this man carefully sheltering her and doting on her.
After being reborn for so long, she had not found anything suspicious about Mo Beihan.
But now that she thought about it, at this time, had the Elder Brother Beihan of the past been so good to her and doted on her so much?
To be precise, although he really liked her and cared about her, a fellow in his early twenties without much experience would not know how to treat a young girl well. But the present Mo Beihan was different. It was as if he had been trained.
Mo Beihan’s lips curved in amusement when he saw that the girl was observing him, but he did not say anything.
The two of them were walking along when that Zhang Qiang suddenly rushed out. Gu Qingyao was looking at Mo Beihan and she jumped in fright!
Mo Beihan immediately pulled Gu Qingyao behind him and looked at Zhang Qiang coldly.
The Zhang Qiang of the present was not as arrogant as before.
His face was all bruised and he had shadows under his eyes. One could tell at a glance that he had not slept well for a long time. He was in a sorry state.
“Gu Qingyao!”
In the beginning, he had not even known Gu Qingyao’s name. But how could he not know it after so much had happened?
“Get lost!” Mo Beihan did not want to waste words on him.
Zhang Qiang glared at Mo Beihan angrily and resentfully. “Who are you? You’ve destroyed my entire family for the sake of a girl. Why are you so vicious?”
“Have I dug up your ancestors’ graves? Is there a need to kick up such a big fuss over a small matter?”
Mo Beihan immediately lost his temper. He grabbed Zhang Qiang’s collar and dragged him over. “Do you want to repeat that?”
Zhang Qiang was shocked. Mo Beihan had destroyed his entire family. He was somewhat afraid of Mo Beihan, but he had been spoilt since young and did not understand what error he had committed.
“I… did I say anything wrong? Bro-brother, if you like this woman, you can have her. I guarantee I won’t touch her in the future. There’s no need to do this because of a woman… Ah…”
Mo Beihan was so angry he sent him flying with another kick.
Then he followed him and kicked him several more times before stepping on him, and forcing him to the ground. He said angrily, “Open your eyes and take a good look. This is my fiancée. We are engaged. She’s here to help out her relatives. You only met her once and you dared to harass her. I will thrash you every time I see you.”
