"What did you say? You found her?" Gu Hai had just closed a business deal and was in high spirits, but was caught off guard when his son-in-law Jiang Jing spoke, leaving him momentarily stunned.
Fang Yue suddenly brought up that daughter, but deep down, Gu Hai didn't hold out any hope.
What happened twenty-one years ago—if they'd looked for her back then, maybe there would've been a chance, but so many years have passed now; how could they possibly find the child?
"Dad, I asked a lot of people to help search, and in the end, we really found Mingzhu's younger sister." Jiang Jing recited his carefully crafted story, saying that after the child had been stolen, she was abandoned because she was frail and thought unlikely to survive. Fang Yue discreetly sought help from police near Gaoliang County, but forgot to check within Gaoliang itself.
Jiang Jing sifted through records from over twenty years ago, and finally found the police report filed by the family who'd found the child.
