Gu Qingyao stood before Qiao Yuying. She had prepared many things to say, but at this instant, she could not utter a word.

Meanwhile, the instant Qiao Yuying saw Gu Qingyao, she was completely dumbstruck.

The girl before her looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, but her looks were extremely similar to hers. Most importantly, for some reason, there was an intense feeling of wanting to get close to her the moment she saw her. She did not know why, but a certain void in her heart was filled instantly.

It seemed that her life was finally complete after seeing her.

Qin Zhiyuan had already left, and there were only the two of them in the room. After all, Gu Qingyao was already prepared and was slightly more composed than Qiao Yuying. She spoke after a while, “My last name is Gu, and I am called Gu Qingyao. I am eighteen this year. My father is Gu Yunshen, and we live in a small village called Qing River Brigade at the bottom of Jiangchong City in China.”

To Qiao Yuying, these words were far more impactful than seeing Gu Qingyao's face.

She rushed to Gu Qingyao abruptly and clutched her hands. “What did you say? Who is your father? Say it again!”

Gu Qingyao sighed at the sight of her astonished expression.

She clearly still remembers Father.

“My father is Gu Yunshen, and he is very medically skilled. Nineteen years ago, he rescued someone on a mountain near my place. It was a very intelligent and gorgeous girl. Afterward, this girl married him, but she left when she was pregnant.

“Afterward, when my father went out, he met her when her tummy was large and when she was about to give birth. After he sent her to the hospital, she gave birth to a daughter. Father was elated, but he happened to find out that this little girl was in danger, so he secretly carried her away.

“When he returned after sending the girl to a safe place, he found out that someone brought his wife away. He chased after the people but failed to catch up with them and was also afraid that something would happen to the child if he left for a long time, so he could only return first.

“Father said that he went to look for her afterward but failed to find her. At the very beginning, when he was in the hospital, he heard an old couple saying they wanted to bring his wife overseas. There had been no news of her after so many years, so he guessed that she really left!”

Qiao Yuying's face was tear-stricken right now.

She was young back then and met someone she liked in such a circ.u.mstance. She never regretted marrying him, but unexpectedly, that incident happened – she actually found out that he was already married a long time ago.

After going overseas for eighteen years, she still could not put that relations.h.i.+p behind her and could not believe that person would lie to her. But she could not return either and had waited for eighteen years.

Qiao Yuying grabbed Gu Qingyao's hands tightly. “You… you…”

Gu Qingyao replied, “I am that child. Back then, it was Father who carried me back personally. He brought me home and I grew up in the Gu family.”

Gu Qingyao took out the wedding certificate when she finished speaking.

“I was specially permitted to go overseas this time. I was actually a little hesitant about going overseas, but Father pa.s.sed this to me and said that Mother was overseas and very likely to be in this country. He told me to look for you and help him to ask if you still remember him?”

Looking at that exceptionally ancient wedding certificate from nineteen years ago, Qiao Yuying's vision was blurred by her tears. Her trembling hands received it, and she let out a painful cry when she looked at the names on it!

“I looked for him. I looked for him before. But he lied to me. He is already married, and he even has kids!”
