Gu Weiwei's hand that was holding the teacup shivered and the tea spilled onto the book and herself.
Hearing the sound, Fu Hanzheng leaned forward and took a look.
"I … I am going to get changed."
She forced herself to look calm and quickly left the study to get changed in the walk-in closet.
She entered the walk-in closet and leaned against the door, her breathing trembling.
She had always thought that the Gu Family had done her a great favor by adopting her and giving her a good life.
But the Gu Family, who had always valued interests, would never do anything without asking for anything in return.
In the end, even the adoption of her was a secret deal.
Because of her mysterious biological father, who never showed his face, the Gu family gave her the most luxurious life. They carefully protected her safety at all times and hid her identity.
During those years, she read her mother's diary and tried everything she could to find her father, who had been missing for years.
He even risked his life to go to the warzone where the flames of war were raging for the slightest clue.
But she just could not find him.
Gu Siting told her that her father had passed away a long time ago.
However, he clearly knew who he was, where he was, and even … he had seen him before.
But he had been lying to her, not telling her a single piece of information.
Was she just a bargaining chip for Gu Siting and the whole Gu Family?
She stayed in the walk-in closet for a long time. Fu Hancheng finished the video call and knocked at the door.
"Weiwei?"
Gu Weiwei came back to herself, got changed quickly and adjusted her expression in front of the mirror. Then she opened the door and walked out.
Fu Hancheng could see that she did not look well and asked, "How are you?"
"What took you so long? Are you not feeling well?"
"My stomach is not feeling well."
Gu Weiwei found an excuse and covered it up perfectly.
Fu Hancheng thought for a while and said, "Maybe you drank yesterday.
"Maybe it's because of the alcohol yesterday. If it's serious, let's go to the hospital."
Gu Weiwei nodded and went to lie down on the sofa.
Fu Hanzheng gave her a cup of brown sugar water and called Lei Meng to talk to him about something serious.
"Any suspicious news from the Gu Family these days?"
Raymond thought for a moment and said.
"Nothing special. We haven't been able to find the person Gu Siting was looking for the last time. He hasn't found the person either."
Fu Hancheng furrowed his brows and said after listening.
"What about the Gu Weiwei adopted by the Gu family?"
According to the news from the military, Gu Weiwei had been missing for several months.
"She hasn't shown up for a few months. Should we investigate her?" Raymond asked.
Although Gu Weiwei was the eldest daughter of the Gu Family, she did not interfere in the affairs of the Gu Corporation.
It could only be said that he was a talented person in the field of art, so he had never been in the scope of their intelligence tracking.
Fu Hancheng's expression was cold. "Yes, investigate her. It's best if … we can find her."
Raymond was stunned for a moment before he asked.
"Then the person Gu Siting is looking for …"
Fu Hancheng said, "Let's look for him together. Maybe the Gu Family is looking for him because they know about Gu Weiwei."
"Got it, Boss." Raymond hung up after hearing the words.
Gu Weiwei was sitting on the sofa with the cup in her hands. Seeing him finish the phone call in front of her, she asked tentatively.
"Do the Fu Family and the Gu Family have a deep grudge against each other?"
Fu Hancheng sat down next to her and put his arms around her shoulders.
"During my grandfather's generation, the two families were at odds with each other. Second Grandfather, my uncle and aunt died in the hands of the Gu Family, and the Gu Family paid the price."
At the mention of the Gu Family, a sinister look appeared in his eyes.
"Twenty years ago, the Fu Family had suppressed the Gu Family until they almost collapsed. But suddenly, an underground force started to support the Gu Family, allowing the Gu Family to quickly turn the situation around. They even have a close relationship with the royal family of A Land."
Gu Weiwei took a sip of the warm brown sugar water and asked casually.
"Then why are you looking for Gu Weiwei?"
Fu Hancheng thought that if she knew about the grudge between the two families, she would know to stay away from the Gu Family, so he did not intend to hide anything from her.
"She is the daughter of the leader of the underground organization. This kind of underground force is always fighting against each other. That is why the leader hid his daughter's identity and gave her to the Gu Family to raise. She is the biggest bargaining chip for the cooperation between the Gu Family and his allies. As long as the Fu Family finds her, the Gu Family … will be finished."
All these years, it was because of the obstruction of the underground force that the Gu Family had been growing stronger and stronger.
Gu Weiwei suddenly understood. "… Can you still find her?"
She was already dead and yet she was right next to him.
