Qin Zhiyuan was overjoyed, truly overjoyed.

Qin Si’s heart ached a little when she saw her father who had always been refined, gentle and capable shed tears. She passed him some tissue paper and comforted him, “Father, don’t be sad anymore. We will reunite with Grandpa and Grandma.”

Qin Zhiyuan collected himself and said, “Father is happy! Happy!”

He looked at Gu Qingyao with a smile. “I never thought Mother would actually accept you as her disciple. She was famous at a young age for her extraordinary medical skills and had a prestigious identity in the Jiangnan area. There were plenty of people who once wanted to be her apprentice, but she never accepted any of them.

“Afterward, the Jiang family had a downfall, and the issue about taking a disciple was put to an end. Unexpectedly, she actually met you in her later years!”

Qin Zhiyuan stood up and bowed to Gu Qingyao deeply. “You saved my mother’s life. Thank you so much!”

Qin Zhiyuan’s action was so sudden that Gu Qingyao could not stop him in time. She hurriedly rose and helped him up. “Uncle Qin, you’re too polite. Teacher is very nice to me. She taught me many things, and I learned a lot from her. As for rescuing her…”

Gu Qingyao smiled a little shyly. “That… is just a coincidence. Coincidence!”

Qin Zhiyuan smiled in return. “Regardless of whether it’s a coincidence, you rescued my mother. I should be thankful to you.”

He let out a deep sigh. “All these years, I’ve been missing my parents and felt guilty for escaping without being able to bring them along and letting them suffer in the country. It’s been so many years, and I have been trying my best to find out news about them, but unfortunately, I was unsuccessful.

“Now that I know they are safe and well, I can finally be at ease!”

Qin Zhiyuan looked at his daughter with a smile. “You’ve made a great contribution today. It’s not early anymore. Let’s go eat first! Miss Gu, today was just too rushed, so let’s just eat something first. Do you have time tomorrow? I wish to officially invite you to a meal. I will bring my wife and children with me as well then to express my gratitude. I also hope that you can tell me more about my parents’ situation in the country. There’s still too little written on the letter.”

Gu Qingyao smiled. “Uncle Qin, you’re too courteous. You can just call me by my name. There’s no need to treat me to a meal. Really. Teacher has been very nice to me, and I am her disciple, so helping her is my responsibility. You really don’t need to be polite to me.

​ “I… actually have something to ask for your help too!”

“Oh?” Qin Zhiyuan said, “Please say it. As long as I’m able to do it, I’ll definitely help you.”

Gu Qingyao thought for a moment and said, “This opportunity to go overseas is rare, and I wish to ask you about a person. Back then, she left the country for a similar reason as yours. Her name is Qiao Yuying. The Qiao family was a famous family in the capital back then, and it is very likely for them to have come here when they left the country. I just don’t know whether they are still here now.

“I don’t need to know about the Qiao family. I just want to find out about Qiao Yuying. Have you heard of her?”

Those who had the qualifications to go overseas back then were mostly from large and powerful families. As long as the Qiao family did not decline, perhaps they would still be in the upper-class society. It was best to find out about her from Qin Zhiyuan.

Qiao Yuying?

Qin Zhiyuan frowned slightly. He took another look at Gu Qingyao and was taken aback!

Previously, he was too agitated and had been so absorbed in the joy of learning about his parents that he did not observe Gu Qingyao’s features closely. Now that he calmed down and observed her, why did she look a little familiar?
