Ye Mohan and Gong Yixue exchanged a glance and nodded.

Ye Yunhen continued, "Although the Atre family legally practices monogamy, in reality, every man in the Atre family has more than one wife in private."

Logically, such a family should have many descendants and be prosperous, but the Atreus family is the opposite. Don't you think something is very wrong with that?"

Gong Yixue nodded and said, "That's true."

Remembering that Ye Yunhen said he had investigated some evidence, Gong Yixue revealed her guess.

"According to my investigation, Conrad has been funding an international research institute specializing in gene research for many years. Could this be related?"

Seeing that Gong Yixue was so quick-witted and intelligent, Ye Yunhen nodded with satisfaction.

Gong Yixue continued, "Then what do you mean, Dad, that the main subject of your research is Mom?"

Gong Yixue couldn't understand the connection between the two no matter how hard she tried.

Suddenly remembering something, she asked, "Could it be that Mom is from the Atlantean family?"

Ye Yunhen looked at Gong Yixue and nodded, "Yes, you guessed right. Ge'er is indeed Conrad's illegitimate daughter who was left behind."

She really hadn't expected that her mother-in-law would have such a relationship with the Atreus family.

"So, does that mean Mom was taken away for research because the Atlantean family wanted to study why their offspring were so few?" Gong Yixue asked.

Ye Yunhen nodded. "That's my guess."

Ge'er married him, and he was able to have both a son and a daughter.

This must be the reason why the Atreus family attacked them.

He was also puzzled as to why Conrad would suddenly come to him, but that wasn't the point at the moment.

"Although I don't know the specifics, I think Ge'er is very likely in that research institute."

I originally planned to go there after settling things here. Now that you're here, you can go in my place, while I stay here to continue gathering information.

Gong Yixue and Ye Mohan exchanged a glance, then looked at Ye Yunhen and said, "Even if you hadn't said anything, Dad, Mohan and I would have gone anyway. But you can't stay here any longer; it's too dangerous."

“Come with us. I believe that if we really find Mom, the person she will most want to see is you.”

A man like Conrad, who would even kill his own father, is certainly no good. If he were to discover his father-in-law's true identity...

Ye Yunhen felt very gratified. But he wasn't afraid of this danger in order to find Ge'er as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, I've survived all these years, nothing will happen," Ye Yunhen reassured the two.

"Right now we can only guess that Ge'er might be there, but what if Ge'er isn't there? So I think it's better for me to stay by Conrad's side and gather information."

He could not leave until he found Ge'er.

Ye Mohan frowned, and just as he was about to speak, Gong Yixue spoke first, "Dad, I disagree. You must come with us."

Having finally found Ye Yunhen, she didn't want any more mishaps.

"As for Mom, Mo Han and I will do our best to find her. You have been fighting this alone for more than 20 years, and we cannot afford to lose you again."

Even if you don't think about us, you should at least think about Grandpa. Grandpa has had a very hard time all these years.

Gong Yixue knew that no matter how much she said, she might not be able to move Ye Yunhen, but with her grandfather's reputation, there might still be a glimmer of hope.

And that is indeed the case.

Ye Yunhen felt an overwhelming sense of guilt when she thought of her father.

Of all the people he wronged most in his life, the old man was the first one.

He not only made his father suffer the pain of losing his son, but also made his father take on the responsibilities that originally belonged to him.

Ye Mohan also spoke up at the right time, "Dad, listen to Xue'er, let's go together. I will come to find Mom about her matter."

Ye Yunhen was persuaded by the two and finally nodded in agreement.

Since there are no more useful clues here, and the only useful clues all point to the research institute.

The three immediately decided to leave the next day.

The next morning, Ye Yunhen went to tell Conrad.

Conrad asked a few questions, but Ye Yunhen brushed him off with excuses about personal matters. In the end, Conrad agreed to his request to take a break.

Meanwhile, Ye Mohan and Gong Yixue also informed Blake that they had urgent business to attend to and had to leave early.

Blake assumed the two were leaving because of Conrad and tried to persuade them to stay, but Gong Yixue said she really had urgent business. Blake didn't say anything more and personally saw the two off from the At family.

After leaving the Yate family, Ye Mohan and Gong Yixue did not leave Boshan County. Instead, they traveled to the easternmost part of Boshan County and checked into the nearby luxury hotel, the Lucerne Hotel.

The reason for coming here is that the research institute mentioned by Ye Yunhen is located on the summit of Xuefeng Mountain, a snow-capped mountain about 10 to 20 kilometers away.

Country R has a unique climate, with an average annual temperature of 6-14 degrees Celsius, and the higher the altitude, the longer the months with snow cover.

Like Xuefeng Mountain, which has an altitude of nearly 3,000 meters, it is naturally covered with snow all year round.

The world's premier genetic research institute, the World Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute, is located atop its highest snow-capped peak.

The two had just arrived at the hotel when Ye Yunhen arrived right after them.

The reason they didn't travel together was to avoid the eyes and ears of the Atreus family. After all, this wasn't their territory, and they had important matters to attend to, so it was better to be cautious.

Ye Yunhen arrived at the address given by Ye Mohan.

For convenience and to maintain confidentiality, Gong Yixue booked all the rooms on the top floor.

However, there are only two presidential suites on the top floor, so they can sleep in one and her father-in-law can sleep in the other.

The doorbell rang, and Ye Mohan said, "I'll go open the door. It should be Dad."

Gong Yixue nodded.

Before long, Ye Mohan led Ye Yunhen in.

As the younger generation, Gong Yixue greeted them first.

"dad."

Ye Yunhen nodded and sat down with Ye Mohan.

As they got closer to the truth, Ye Yunhen grew increasingly anxious, and finally asked, "What's your plan? When are you going to take action?"

Gong Yixue said, "Let's not rush. The environment near the research institute is harsh. Let's rest for a day and prepare some warm clothes and medicine before we set off."

Having lived in Boshan County for so many years, Ye Yunhen naturally knew that the research institute's environment was terrible.

The area is covered in snow all year round, and the climate is extremely harsh. The staff inside the research institute can take a cable car to go up and down, but people like them who want to go in to investigate naturally cannot take the cable car, so the conditions are much more difficult.
