Chapter 754 - Is It Really Bai Youran? (1)
The mother and daughter were with the superior for a very long time. He was in poor health and had never had children, but he was a very capable man.
Around the time the man’s wife was about to drive them away, Gu Ruoqing unexpectedly became pregnant and had a son, who certainly belonged to that man.
The man was delighted. But his wife was no ordinary woman either. In the end, she retained the child but gave Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing a sum of money and drove them away.
They had money and food coupons, but the man did not want them anymore. They reluctantly continued north and met another man. This time, it was a very old man.
This old man had a son, but he could not have any children. The family line was about to die out when they met Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing. In the end, Zhang Xiaohui gave the old man a son, and the two of them remained with that family for a few years.
In the end, the old man died, and the son’s wife was unwilling to support Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing. The child was registered under the old man’s son’s name when he was born, and the old man treated the baby as his grandson. In the end, the son and his wife drove Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing away.
Gu Qingyao read all this in shock. “What happened after that?”
Gu Jinhang sipped his hot tea. “After that? Then restrictions were lifted! These two are marvelous. Every man they meet is exceptional. The last old man had some money. The two of them lived with him for a few years, and they certainly got something out of it.
“Also, when they were driven out, the old man’s son was afraid they would cause trouble, so he also gave them some money. At that time, restrictions were relaxed, and Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing continued on to the capital to look for their target.”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
At that point, Gu Jinhang suddenly raised his brows and smiled. “Guess… who they’re looking for?”
Gu Qingyao was startled. “Have you found that out too? That can’t be right! When I met them, Gu Qingyao asked Zhang Xiaohui several times, but Zhang Xiaohui refused to divulge it!”
Gu Jinhang laughed. “Although she did not say exactly who she was looking for, she must surely have a goal? When she swapped the children, she must have known the family and where they lived. How can she be sure they haven’t moved after so many years? Zhang Xiaohui only knows they are in the capital. But she thinks they must be an important family. They certainly would not casually move from such a good position in the capital.”
That was true. At the moment, it was rare for an entire family to move, unless there were extraordinary circumstances.
After all, life was hard enough. They did not have that much choice.
Gu Qingyao: “Who are they looking for?”
Gu Jinhang laughed meaningfully. “The Bai family!”
Gu Qingyao’s eyes immediately widened!
“Bai- Bai family?”
Gu Jinhang said, “That’s right, the Bai family. I specially went to investigate. The Bai family currently has a very famous young lady, Bai Youran. The same one who is eyeing your Mo Beihan. When she was born, her mother gave birth at the provincial capital near our hometown, at the same place as Zhang Xiaohui.”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
This news was a complete shock to Gu Qingyao!
If that was true, if Bai Youran was not the Bai family’s daughter, but Zhang Xiaohui’s daughter, then…
She truly had been very pitiful in her previous life!
