This chapter is updated by Wuxiahere.com

While her heart ached at the thought of the tough living conditions back in their home country, she was simultaneously glad that her daughter could grow up in such a warm environment in the Gu family and that Gu Yunshen doted on her throughout all these years, allowing their daughter to grow up safely and into such an outstanding person!

Hearing that Gu Jinfeng was here, Qiao Yuying was rather happy. She knew that her daughter was close to her older cousins. Qiao Yuying would naturally want to meet him.

“Of course I’ve to meet him. When is he free? Oh right, where is he staying now? Is he well adjusted after coming abroad?”

Gu Qingyao smiled. “Tonight will be good. Let’s meet him when you get off work. He just arrived, and I told him to live in my house for the time being. That place is near the school.

“As for adjusting to the country, I reckon it will take him some time. Their batch of students came on a quite tight schedule, unlike me who came many days in advance. He had to report to the school the moment he arrived. It’s been only two to three days since he arrived, and he still hasn’t completely adapted!”

Qiao Yuying chuckled. “Everyone is like this when they’ve just arrived. I was like this too when I just went abroad. I only gradually adapted after guidance from my friend!”

The Qiao family was a large family clan and had a wide circle of friends. She had friends who went abroad before her, and her elder brothers were studying abroad at that time. The Qiao family only reunited after they came abroad.

Gu Qingyao beamed. “Tonight shall it be then! I’ll go back and inform them first. I won’t return to the Qiao house these two days as I’ll be bringing Fourth Cousin to familiarize with the area.”

“All right!”

Qiao Yuying agreed at once.

But Gu Qingyao did not leave. Not only that, she kept staring at her mother and did not say anything. Looking at her, it was obvious that she had something to say.

Qiao Yuying was perplexed. “Why? What is there you can’t tell your mother? Did you stir any troubles? Or did you beat Guo Yu up again?”

Gu Qingyao smiled in a slightly fawning manner. “Mother, Fourth Cousin told me that they have already received the items I wanted Zhao Mingjiang to bring back to the country just a few days before they prepared to go abroad. Father must have seen the photograph I sent him.”

Qiao Yuying paused for a moment and was suddenly a little nervous!

Gu Qingyao smiled. “Father hasn’t told anyone in the family about you, and Fourth Cousin only knows about you after I told him when he came here. However, Father told him to bring an item for me and even had him relay a message: He is always waiting. He will wait for me to return and for us to reunite as a family!

“It is very clear that he has always been waiting for you!”

As Gu Qingyao spoke, she handed the item that Gu Yunshen wanted to be brought over to Qiao Yuying. It was a very simple and tiny box which contained a handkerchief inside!

Qiao Yuying’s belongings from back then!

Qiao Yuying recognized it the moment she saw it! Her eyes reddened immediately. More than twenty years – they passed by each other for more than twenty years!

Actually, this was not any important handkerchief and was just something that she carried back then. There was no special meaning or symbol on it!

However, apart from that wedding certificate, this was the only item Gu Yunshen had that was related to Qiao Yuying.

He had been treasuring it for more than twenty years!

Gu Qingyao said, “Mother, I did not specify the details in the letter to Father because I am not close to Zhao Mingjiang. It would not be good if anyone sees the content upon inspection.

“But now that Fourth Cousin has come, he said that our home country is much more open now. He probably could have brought letters out, but Father did not write any and merely brought this for you. I believe that after so many years of waiting, he must have a million words to tell you but does not know where to start from.

“He’s waiting for us to return and reunite as a family!”
