True. Everyone knew that the prices of old-fashioned courtyard houses would be sky-high in the future. Even now, when the economy was just beginning to grow, they were not cheap.

Although the price did not seem much now, salaries were low and ordinary people could not afford them.

Gu Qingyao smilingly glanced at her second cousin.

Gu Jinhang smiled. “No problem. Anyway, I’ll have to prepare a marital home when I get married. If you prefer an old-fashioned courtyard house, then I’ll buy that!”

At that moment, Ji Mingyue did not know what to say.

She was a little excited and a little embarrassed.

Gu Qingyao saw that Ji Mingyue was flustered, so she quickly changed the subject.

“You were smiling when you came in. You looked as if you had something to tell me! Has something happened?”

Ji Mingyue hurriedly said, “Nothing important. I just haven’t seen you for a few days. Something happened that you probably don’t know about.”

Gu Qingyao raised her brows. “What?”

“I heard that Mo Yunhao and Bai Youran are engaged.”

Gu Qingyao: “..”

She stared rather blankly at Mo Beihan. “So fast?”

Mo Beihan shrugged. “It was love at first sight!”

Gu Qingyao: “..”

She was so infatuated with you. Would she fall in love with Mo Yunhao so easily?

Gu Qingyao did not dare to believe it. Impossible! In their previous life, Bai Youran had been dead set on Mo Beihan!

How had she changed her mind so quickly in this life?

Ji Mingyue leaned over. “She’s been very smug lately. She’s been showing off. Mo Yunhao has bought her many, many things! He has bought her bags and bags of clothes and shoes. I’ve seen Bai Youran several times lately, and she was wearing something different each time.”

“I even saw her showing off her rings and bracelets recently. She said Mo Yunhao bought them for her. They’re so expensive!”

Mo Yunhao had bought some jewelry for Bai Youran lately.

Gu Qingyao’s mouth twitched. Recently, she had spent her time with her parents, buying furniture and renovating the house. Had the world changed?

She looked at Mo Beihan. “Is it true that.. Mo Yunhao has earned a lot of money?”

Mo Beihan glanced at Ji Mingyue and Gu Jinhang. Gu Jinhang did not seem surprised at all. He was perfectly calm. But Ji Mingyue was watching him as if waiting for him to answer.

Ji Mingyue was considered family. Mo Beihan rubbed his nose. “It’s true for now!”

Gu Qingyao: “..”

Ji Mingyue: ..

Ji Mingyue looked at Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao. She sensed that they were hiding something.

She could not help but remember a recent rumor going around the capital. According to this rumor, Mo Beihan had lost a lot of money in business, and Old Master Mo had washed his hands of him. Gossip even talked about how he was from a village and could not compare to Mo Yunhao.

She had been worried about Gu Qingyao and had asked Gu Jinhang about it.

Gu Jinhang told her there was no need to worry.

Now she also knew that the Qiao family was a powerful family. Their fortunes had not declined because they had simply left the country and had done very well overseas. They continued to be a pillar of high society.

The Qiao family’s sons and grandsons all had their own businesses overseas. Just Gu Qingyao’s mother, Qiao Yuying, owned Qiao’s Jewelry.

They were very wealthy!
