While sipping his soup, Mo Yang observed his father with sharp, discerning eyes.
“Father, are you trying to copy our Little Sweetheart’s expression? It looks quite stiff on you; you aren't nearly as adorable as she is when she does it!”
Mo Beihan shot him an immediate look of annoyance. “Be quiet!”
Gu Qingyao was left speechless. “Our son has barely returned, yet you’re already scolding him? You missed him terribly while he was away, but the moment he’s back, you start criticizing him.”
“I didn’t miss him at all,” Mo Beihan declared with a proud huff. “Every time I visited him over these past four years, it was only because he couldn’t handle things on his own.”
Mo Yang wouldn't let that stand. “Father, don’t slander me! Throughout these years, I have been perfectly capable of managing every business matter.”
Hearing this, Gu Qingyao felt a surge of maternal pride. “That’s right. Our Yang Yang is the most brilliant. You’re even more intelligent than your fourth cousin.”
Years ago, she had believed Mu Mu was the most gifted child she knew. Even at a tender age, he was worldly and a rapid learner. To her amazement, however, her own son had proven to be even sharper than Mu Mu.
The thought filled Gu Qingyao with immense satisfaction.
“That’s only because of my excellent teaching,” Mo Beihan cut in, seeking his share of the credit.
“Yes, yes, of course. It’s all thanks to you that Yang Yang is so talented. Here, have some of this to nourish yourself!”
Gu Qingyao pushed a bowl of soup toward Mo Beihan and placed chopsticks directly into his hands. Only then did Mo Beihan look content.
Seated across from them, Mo Yang gave a mischievous grin. “Father, I’ll be taking Yue Yue out to play in a few days. You’ll need to handle the business for a while longer! Since you built this empire yourself, you should remind everyone that the big boss hasn't lost his touch, even if he hasn't bothered with work in years!”
Mo Beihan’s lip twitched. “How long do you plan to be gone? Didn’t you just get back from the coast?”
Mo Yang laughed in response. “That was ages ago! We’re planning a much longer trip this time. Yue Yue wants to learn how to drive, so I picked up a sports car for her. Also, regarding those villas at Mount Nan Lake—I bought one for Yue Yue halfway up the mountain. Since the renovations are finished, I’m taking her to see if the decor suits her taste.”
“There’s a massive plaza right by the lake, which is the perfect spot for her driving practice. I’ll bring Yue Yue home once she’s mastered the wheel. She rarely gets a vacation, after all!”
The Mount Nan Lake Villas were a brand-new development boasting incredible views, making it a premier holiday destination.
Mo Beihan arched an eyebrow. “You certainly aren't stingy when it comes to Yue Yue.”
Mo Yang lifted his chin confidently. “Naturally. I learned that from you, Father, though I’m far more generous. Unlike you, who managed to win my mother over with nothing but a few snacks!”
“Pfft…” Gu Qingyao couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Mo Beihan ground his teeth in frustration. “Who told you I only bought your mother snacks? Your cars and villas are nothing compared to the things I gave her in the past. Your skills are far below mine!”
His eyes glinted as he began to lecture his son. “We are men! We must be talented and doting to raise a proper woman. Look at your mother. Initially, the entire Gu family spoiled her. After being married to me for all these years, she remains just as youthful and beautiful. Furthermore, she is both virtuous and brilliant. That’s because I invested heavily in nurturing those qualities.”
“If you want your Yue Yue to turn out like your mother, you’d better work hard and make money. Don't just focus on having fun. If you take Yue Yue out to play, you can accompany her during the day and handle your work at night. Do you understand?”
Mo Yang: “…”
After all that grand talk, you just want to dump your workload on me!
