CHAPTER 676: CHAPTER 676: LOVE GROWS EVER DEEPER (121)
Gu Lili gently pushed her hat back and slowly walked to sit across from them. "Firstly, congratulations to the President on his inauguration. I hope you can bring a better spring to the people of S Country. May I know why the President and Madam have summoned me here?"
The tea was served, and Yin Qi reached out, "Miss Gu, please have some tea. We can talk while we drink."
Gu Lili nodded, picking up the cup and taking a sip. After all, with Long Yubei secretly protecting her, what did she have to fear?
Noticing that she drank the tea, Yu Wen spoke up, "The thing is, on the night of the inauguration, we were following the online discussion."
"I saw that too. I figured it was posted by someone with too much time on their hands. If it has caused any trouble for you and Madam, please don’t take it to heart. My appearance hasn’t been surgically altered; it’s natural. I do think there are indeed many people in the world who look alike."
"Yes, we actually don’t mind either. We just wanted to see what you look like in person."
Gu Lili suddenly felt a wave of dizziness wash over her, and before she could utter a word, she passed out.
Long Yubei, who was nearby and ready to appear, noticed Yu Wen plucking several of Gu Lili’s hairs and guessed what was happening. He decided not to take any action for the moment.
Yu Wen handed the hair to a trusted individual to send for verification.
After closing the door, she breathed a long sigh, "If she is our daughter, the test results will tell."
Yin Qi looked at the unconscious Gu Lili; she looked so much like her.
Seeing her husband’s silence, Yu Wen asked, "What’s the matter?"
"She must be our daughter."
"The results haven’t come back yet."
"She must be." Yin Qi clasped his hands tightly together, certain.
"Are you really that sure?"
"That certain." He looked down, "And I’m getting more and more of a sense that even if she knows the results, she won’t acknowledge us."
"Don’t worry about that too much," Yu Wen reassured him. "Even though she has borne two grandchildren for the Long Family, Long Yubei still hasn’t remarried her. If she privately acknowledges us, the Long Family would not dare to underestimate her."
"Knock knock knock."
Yu Wen called out, "Come in."
The Secretary-General came in, holding a stack of documents, "Madam, this is the information you asked me to investigate on Miss Gu. It’s all authentic and reliable."
"This much?"
Yu Wen carefully reviewed the documents, "Husband, it turns out the rumors we saw online are true. They said she can see unclean things. Could she really be the reincarnation of an Evil Spirit? If so, can we use this to our advantage, to get help ordinary people can’t?"
Yin Qi glared at her, "What are you thinking about at this time?"
"Well, I have to think about it. If she really is our daughter, we must acknowledge her. We can’t say we abandoned her in the past but rather she was stolen from us. We must put it this way so that she will understand and forgive us."
Yin Qi agreed with this, "Let’s say it just like that."
The couple meticulously went through the information again, and after finishing, Yu Wen found some of it unexpectedly revealing.
The documentation showed that Gu Lili held two percent of Gu Group’s shares. She was also on very good terms with Gu Xichen. That was not all; she was friends with Antonio, the heir of the Anton Family from T Country, and she was the one who initiated the divorce from Long Yubei, whom Long Yubei still dearly loved.
She alone covered a network of many significant relationships.
At first, Yu Wen thought after so many years without contact, the recognition would not be as heartfelt, but after seeing all this confirmed information, she changed her mind.
