Yu Weilan frowned: "So, the real child of the Yan family is already dead?"

The information in Xue Yirou's memory is indeed true.

Xue Yirou had her lover arrange for someone to impersonate a political enemy of the Yan family, sneak out of Yan Zhixue after she had been away for more than a month, and kill her to prevent any potential problems.

In this way, even if the Yan family finds their child in Yu Shiwei in the future, and discovers that Yu Shiwei is indeed the Yan family's child after a DNA test, they will be able to secure a child for the Yan family.

Once Yu Shiwei is recognized by the Yan family and becomes their daughter, she will have no more worries.

There's absolutely no need to worry about the Yan family's real daughter suddenly appearing sometime in the future.

It must be said that Xue Yirou was ruthless enough to nip any possible factors that might hinder her schemes in the bud.

"Unsurprisingly, he is indeed dead. But if we must be certain, it would be best to have the Yan family find a master of Yin-Yang metaphysics to examine him and determine whether the child is alive or dead."

These words reminded Yu Weilan of something.

He said, "The Yan family has never given up searching for their child since the child went missing nineteen years ago."

"Later, we even found a master of metaphysics who was very skilled to predict the child's fate. We learned that the child was still alive and have never given up the search over the years."

"Until they discovered that Yu Shiwei was the child the Yan family was looking for."

A smile on the moon's face, that's interesting.

If that child is still alive, but hasn't been found by the Yan family all these years, there's only one possibility.

She has always been in someone's hands, and this person's power and background are no less than that of the Yan family, so they can cover up the child's whereabouts.

If the person in charge of stealing the child was Xue Yirou's lover, then the Yan family's child is most likely still in his hands.

Thinking this, Jin Shangyue took out her personal computer and projected the man's image directly into her mental form based on the image of the man Xue Yirou had seen in her memory.

"Does Father know this person?"

Jinshangyue virtually projected a life-size replica of a person into mid-air.

Yu Weilan saw that the person was wearing a blue robe with red flowers and embroidery, with long hair braided into braids tied behind her head, and countless shimmering seashells and silver ornaments adorning the braids.

Her features were delicate and feminine, yet with a hint of sickly eeriness; her dark eyes had almost no whites visible.

They were pitch black, like two abysses of hell, making people feel uneasy at first glance, with a kind of horror of facing hell directly.

Especially the red flowers on this person's robe, which looked like blood-red faces pieced together from poppies, were eerie and sinister cannibalistic faces.

Wearing it, paired with that exotic hairstyle, and with a tiny blood-red skull painted on her forehead and between her eyebrows.

The person seemed more like an evil spirit or monster from some dark and sinister alternate dimension.

"He's from Louyin, how do you have his likeness?"

Lou Yin is one of the world's seven top aristocratic families, the largest branch of the Lou family, and the fifth grandson of the current head of the family, Lou Tianchong.

The current head of the Lou family's main branch, Lou Shengchi, is a half-brother of Lou Yin's grandfather, Lou Tianchong.

The Lou family branch, a collateral branch, is the largest branch of the Lou family besides the main branch.

Later, it developed to the point that it was almost on par with the main family's direct line, Lou Shengchi's lineage.

Not only because the Louyin lineage produced several exceptionally talented descendants.

Furthermore, because the Lou family's Black Ancestor favored Lou Yin's great-grandmother, he extended that favor to Lou Yin's grandfather as well.

Although Lou Shengchi, the eldest son, later became the head of the family, the Black Ancestor secretly gave Lou Tianchong a lot of subsidies.

He also frequently sent the best things he had to the branch of Lou Tianchong who was not related by marriage.

Over time, coupled with the exceptional talent of Lou Tianchong's grandsons and the constant resource support from the Black Ancestor, they naturally grew stronger and stronger.

Now they can almost challenge the lineage of the main family, Lou Shengchi.

Therefore, the Lou family is a very murky place, with constant internal strife. Yu Weilan felt that the Lou family would inevitably have a major conflict sooner or later.

When the time comes, a major purge will occur. Either the collateral branch will defeat the main family and take the position of family head, or the main family will eliminate the collateral branch.

Jin Shangyue has only been back for a short time, and she hasn't even figured out the depths of the Longwu Empire yet, so how would she know about the Lou family?

As Yu Weilan was thinking this, a possibility suddenly occurred to her, and her eyes instantly sharpened.

When they looked at Lou Yin's projection again, their faces turned somewhat dark.

Sure enough, what I had guessed came next.

Jin Shangyue said, "He is the one who made my father wear the green hat that Madam Yu did."

Yu Weilan: "..." This sly little cotton-padded jacket is no longer acceptable!

"Alright, I understand. You have so much to do right now, go ahead and get busy."

Hurry up and leave. You're such an unfilial daughter, spending all your time watching your old father's drama!

Seeing that Yu Weilan couldn't stand it anymore and was kicking him out, Jin Shangyue smiled and left.

He didn't even ask Yu Weilan how he planned to deal with Xue Yirou and Yu Shiwei.

As the head of the family, Yu Weilan would naturally handle this matter in the best way possible.

The most likely outcome is a direct divorce, allowing Xue Yirou to take Yu Shiwei back to the Xue family.

It's even possible that Xue Yirou would have to bear the consequences of deceiving the Yan family herself, and use her own savings to compensate them.

Given the Yan family's status, background, and power, Xue Yirou will inevitably have to suffer a great loss and significant setbacks to resolve this matter.

If they still don't reveal the true child of the Yan family, they might even have to pay with their lives.

Jin Shangyue wasn't in a hurry; she would wait for the results before taking any action.
