BXBX NOVEL Chapter 710 - Time Flies (2)
Gu Qingyao lowered her head and continued to sketch in her book. “Fourth Cousin, I think you should build a firm foundation. We will certainly have to return to China in a few years. There are so many opportunities back there. Think about it. When you have studied here for a few years, there will be plenty of opportunities to use your talents back home.
“Anyway, those older cousins may not be able to adjust when they go back, because they are not familiar with the environment. They will be in the same situation that you are in now!”
When he thought about the situation back home, a spark kindled in Gu Jinfeng’s eyes.
“I think so too. One of my goals in coming overseas was to obtain a better education. I should not change my priorities now. Without true ability, I can only envy others. Even if I catch up with your cousins now, I will meet even stronger competitors in the future. Then I might not have the ability to deal with them. I cannot survive without real knowledge.”
Gu Qingyao smiled. “That’s right! Fourth Brother, you just need to focus on your studies. Just learn more, expand your horizons and think about China’s situation. There’s no hurry!”
Gu Jinfeng patted Gu Qingyao’s head. “How old are you? Why are you talking like an adult?”
Gu Qingyao said, “Please, I grew up long ago. I arrived here before you, so I have more experience.”
Gu Jinfeng: “…”
Time had flown. In his mind, his younger cousin was still the little girl back home who smiled so sweetly as she clutched the pocket money he had given her. How many years had passed in the blink of an eye?
“Where has Mo Beihan gone?” Gu Jinfeng asked as he watched her sketch.
Gu Qingyao’s hand paused before she carried on sketching. “He’s busy. He has things to attend to.”
Gu Jinfeng was somewhat surprised. “What is he busy with?”
Gu Qingyao laughed. “He’s probably feeling stressed! Although he is the Mo family’s eldest grandson, now that he has seen what things are like here and what the Qiao family is like, he must be thinking that he must provide me with a good life when we really get married!”
Gu Qingyao did not say anymore. But Gu Jinfeng read between the lines and understood!
In the Qing River Brigade, Mo Beihan’s family background might still make him worthy of Gu Qingyao. Later, when he became the Mo family’s grandson, his status became higher than that of the Gu family. Now with the Qiao family in the picture, he did not have any advantage.
Considering how rich Young Aunt was and how much the Qiao family doted on Gu Qingyao, Mo Beihan was… really under immense pressure if he wanted to marry her!
Gu Qingyao took a bound document out of her drawer and handed it to Gu Jinfeng. “Take this and have a look. This contains my predictions. You can refer to it when you think about your future interests.”
Gu Jinfeng was surprised. “What’s this?”
“My analysis of what the professions in China will be like over the next two decades. Perhaps you will find it helpful when you start your business in the future.”
Gu Jinlin was shocked!
He took it and flipped through it. Sure enough, there were predictions for the various professions. This…
“Where did you get this from?”
Gu Qingyao replied, “I wrote it! I’ve been here for a few years, and I have had many thoughts. Also, my uncles, older cousins and mother are all in business. They dabble in so many lines, so I’ve heard a lot from them.
“Also! There are so many classes in school, including economics classes, so I attended them.”
Gu Jinfeng: “… You… Aren’t you studying medicine?”
Gu Qingyao nodded. “I am!”
Gu Jinfeng: “…”
Gu Qingyao had indeed written this. It contained an analysis of the current state of various professions and her predictions.
