Chapter 27: I Will Definitely Be Able to Support You!
Mo Beihan’s heart raced at that sentence!
The girl before him was gorgeous – she had fair skin and especially beautiful eyes that sparkled when looking at him.
Now, at the sound of her intimate tone, it was as if his heart was drenched in honey as bliss bubbled inside him.
He had adored this girl in his previous life and had been waiting for her to grow up. Nevertheless, too many complications happened and they missed each other just like that.
The past him wished to be with her even in his dreams. However, he was reborn now and the girl before him did not hold any grudges nor have any fear that weighed on her mind persistently. Moreover, no one would insult and humiliate her. She was still an innocent and compassionate 15-year-old.
Oh, how he wished to hug, kiss and caress her.
However, Mo Beihan was aware that he could not do that at this timing or she would probably ignore him.
“I’m able... able to support you. I... I will not let you suffer!” Mo Beihan was so excited that he stuttered a little.
“Pfft...” Laughter escaped Gu Qingyao’s lips.
“Are you going to the mountains tomorrow?”
“Yes! I did not go far today as I mainly came out to obtain firewood since there’s not much left at home. I can go farther tomorrow and see whether I can hunt even more wild animals.”
“I’ll come with you! I want to look for vegetables and mushrooms.”
Mo Beihan frowned. “The mountain roads are not walk-friendly. I’ll bring whatever you want back. You can rest at home.”
He could not bear for Yao Yao to suffer. This girl was his and he naturally had to dote on her well.
Gu Qingyao pursed her lips. “No. I want to go with you. It’s very boring at home.”
Her bright eyes blinked repeatedly. Mo Beihan had no resistance against her displays of cuteness and could only nod. “Alright, I will look for you tomorrow. Go back and have a good rest tonight.”
Since Yao Yao wishes to go, he will just treat it as bringing her out to play. With his care, she will not suffer or have any hardships.
Gu Qingyao smiled. “That’s a promise then. I will prepare the food. Don’t say no.”
Mo Beihan beamed sweetly. “Alright, everything you say.”
He was a grown man and knew more than ordinary boys. He could feel that the Yao Yao at this time liked him.
This thought excited Mo Beihan.
When Gu Qingyao brought the wild chicken back home, Gu Ruoqing happened to be back and her eyes lit up at the sight of the chicken in Gu Qingyao’s hand.
“There’s chicken again? This is simply amazing. I’ve meat to eat everyday these few days.”
Gu Qingyao ignored her. She wants to eat meat? Dream on!
Gu Qingyao walked straight into the kitchen and boiled water to pluck the feathers off the chicken.
Seeing that Gu Qingyao went into the kitchen and even started the fire, Gu Ruoqing assumed that Gu Qingyao was preparing lunch and thus went to her room to sleep.
After her afternoon nap, it would be time for lunch.
After Gu Qingyao boiled water and processed the chicken, she brought it into the house to air dry it.
This was not a striking place. A family like the Gu family must lay low. If this was left in the kitchen, anyone who entered the yard would spot it immediately.
Thus, she chose this small, inconspicuous corner between the kitchen and the main house. Moreover, the air ventilation and sunlight were brilliant here and the fish and chicken from before were also left to dry here.
