She seemed not surprised by that, and she then said to Gu Qingjiu, “Good girl. I got it now. I merely wished to ask you and have no other intentions. I believe Lance will support you. Have an early rest. Good night.”
Even though she still had questions, Gu Qingjiu said goodnight to Hilda nonetheless.
Honestly speaking, she felt confused.
But she wasn’t planning on telling Helian Niancheng about this conversation.
After he came in, she didn’t tell him anything.
But the Helian family members were all pretty busy. Ever since seeing them on the first day of arrival, she didn’t even get to see Hilda on the second day.
Helian Niancheng explained that they were all swamped and didn’t have much time to stay at home. Situations like this didn’t happen all that often.
Gu Qingjiu just happened to be around in time to make it for this gathering.
This meeting was enjoyable, and two days later, Gu Qingjiu took a flight to the US to see her older brother.
As Helian Niancheng had matters to be busy with within Penalan, he didn’t accompany Gu Qingjiu.
On the other hand, Gu Qingmo, who was incredibly busy in the States, was shocked to hear that Gu Qingjiu was suddenly coming.
“Qingjiu, what brings you here? Isn’t Chinese New Year just around the corner?”
Gu Qingmo, who freed up some time to pick up Gu Qingjiu at the airport, was still shocked when he saw his sister in person.
As he wouldn’t go back for a few years, he was quite happy to see his kin suddenly.
“Mom said you wouldn’t be going back during Chinese New Year, so she asked me to come over and keep you company. Moreover, I just went to the Chief Instructor’s home…”
After some thought, Gu Qingjiu felt that the only appropriate person she could tell this to was her older brother. After some hesitation, she told him about her trip to Penalan.
But Gu Qingmo still didn’t know about Helian Niancheng’s true identity for the time being.
He was shocked. “You guys are serious? Have you ever met his parents? How was his parents’ attitude towards you?”
Gu Qingjiu said after a halt, “Brother, I’m going to tell you something. Don’t get too worked up after you hear me.”
“Why would I get worked up?” Gu Qingmo frowned, thinking that Gu Qingjiu was picked on while at the Helian home. “Did his family treat you poorly?”
Actually, from Helian Niancheng’s manner of doing things, Gu Qingmo could see that the Helian family was no ordinary family, so he feared that she had suffered the same treatment as he did.
“Of course not, Brother. His family treats me pretty well. But…”
“But what?”
Gu Qingjiu summoned her courage and finally decided to reveal this to him. “Brother… the Chief Instructor doesn’t come from an ordinary family…”
“I know. That’s for sure. So how rich are we talking about?”
Gu Qingmo felt that he wouldn’t get too worked up regardless of how rich they were.
“It’s not a matter of how rich they are. Chief Instructor is, in fact, a royal prince of Penalan. If I marry over, I’ll become the princess consort…”
Cough cough cough!
Gu Qingmo nearly agitatedly stomped on the brakes after Gu Qingjiu finished speaking.
After letting out several violent coughs, he jerked his head towards Gu Qingjiu. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Look in front! Look in front! I told you not to get too worked up!”
Gu Qingjiu was scared that Gu Qingmo would get into an accident, and they would end up making their maker here.
“I’ll tell you after we reach your place. I’m afraid you’ll get into an accident…”
Holding a breath, Gu Qingmo speedily drove towards his home in America. After settling Gu Qingjiu down, he then heard her recounting the entire story.
