Chapter 820: Betting on Both Sides

Gu Zhiyu was obviously also shocked, and his usually calm face was now filled with astonishment:

"Are you talking about Deputy Chief Yao's daughter, Yao Qianqian?"

Secretary Wu nodded: "That's her."

As he spoke, he glanced at the two of them through the rearview mirror and said helplessly, "My reaction yesterday was exactly the same as yours."

"How is this possible..." Annan asked in disbelief, "What is going on?"

A-Yu and Yao Qianqian have known each other for a long time. When Yao Qianqian was in junior high school, she had already followed Deputy Chief Yao to various dinner parties.

How could she be the daughter of Vice Minister Xiao?

Secretary Wu explained as he drove: "According to Deputy Chief Xiao's confession, his mother had worked as a confinement nanny for the Yao family. During her time there, she took advantage of the Yao family's unpreparedness and swapped the two families' children..."

Deputy Chief Xiao’s background is completely different from that of Deputy Chief Yao.

He came from a poor family and was just an ordinary veteran before the natural disaster. It was by chance after the end of the world that he followed Li Mingcheng and climbed up step by step to the position of deputy chief.

If it weren't for a natural disaster, he would never have been in his current position in his lifetime.

The Yao family had gained power very early on. Deputy Chief Yao's father and father-in-law were both high-ranking officials, and his aunt and mother-in-law were both from merchant families.

Therefore, Deputy Chief Yao has been born into a wealthy family, and after combining with Yao's mother, the two have become an even stronger combination. His family not only has power, but also money.

Such living conditions soon aroused the jealousy of Deputy Chief Xiao's mother.

At that time, Deputy Chief Xiao's family was in financial difficulty. Mingming had just given birth to a daughter, but the family could not afford a confinement nanny or a babysitter, and even the child's grandmother could not take care of her granddaughter. He had to go out to earn money to supplement the family income.

During the days when she worked in the Yao family, the old lady saw the young daughter of the Yao family living a wealthy life, and then thought of her own granddaughter who was suffering at home, and could not help but sigh at the unfairness of the world.

By chance, she had an idea and exchanged her granddaughter for the child of the Yao family.

He thought that in this way, his own granddaughter could replace the real daughter and live a life without worries about food and clothing.

An Nan thought it was outrageous: "How can a confinement nanny like her have such great abilities? Isn't she afraid that her employer will find out?"

Secretary Wu shook his head: "According to Deputy Chief Xiao, his mother was introduced to the Yao family by an old client, and because of her good personality and good work ability, she is trusted by the Yao family.

Deputy Chief Yao is very busy with work. Usually, besides Mrs. Yao and the child, there is only one confinement nanny and one babysitter at home. The child has always been taken care of by the confinement nanny, Deputy Chief Xiao’s mother.

An Nan frowned: "No matter how much trust she has, Mrs. Yao can see her child every day, but she didn't realize that her child was replaced?"

Secretary Wu explained: "Mrs. Yao suffered a physical injury during childbirth, and she was carefully taken care of by a nanny during her confinement period. She basically didn't worry about the child...

It is said that the two children look very similar, and their body shape and weight are similar. They are both babies who have not grown up yet, and they are different every day. Even if you hold them in your arms every day, it is difficult to tell them apart. "

An Nan murmured, "That means the one who grew up in the Yao family was always a fake Yao Qianqian?"

Secretary Wu nodded: "Yes."

In order to take care of her own granddaughter, Mrs. Xiao worked as a nanny for another three years. She only left the Yao family when Yao Qianqian went to kindergarten.

An Nan wondered, "What about the real Yao Qianqian? Did Deputy Chief Xiao and his wife agree with the old lady doing this?"

Secretary Wu shook his head: "They were not aware of the baby swap. It was not until the real Yao Qianqian died unexpectedly that Deputy Chief Xiao learned the truth."

Gu Zhiyu frowned: "Death by accident?"

Secretary Wu sighed: "The child's mother was cooking in the kitchen and put the child, who was only a few months old, on the bed. Unexpectedly, the child pulled the quilt next to him over his face and accidentally suffocated him to death.

After the child died, the mother felt too guilty and unable to get over the loss, so she also committed suicide by jumping off a building.

When Mrs. Xiao learned of the death of her granddaughter and daughter-in-law, she hurriedly asked for leave to go home. Seeing that her son was also devastated and had the idea of ​​repenting, she told him the truth.

An Nan sneered: "Is Mr. Xiao relieved? It turns out that the child who died in his house was someone else's, while his own child is enjoying a wealthy life in the Yao family?"

Secretary Wu nodded. Then he sighed, "What a sin!"

As the eldest daughter of the Yao family, the child should have been raised with meticulous care. Unexpectedly, she became a scapegoat and died in the Xiao family due to neglect.

However, the fake Yao Qianqian enjoyed the power and wealth of the Yao family and was raised in pampering.

Annan smacked her lips. No wonder she felt that Deputy Chief Xiao looked familiar.

Now that I think about it, his eyes, nose, and mouth are almost exactly the same as Yao Qianqian's, except for the shape of their eyebrows.

Yao Qianqian has willow-shaped eyebrows, while Deputy Chief Xiao's eyebrows are rougher.

Moreover, Yao Qianqian had an oval face, which was quite different from Deputy Chief Xiao's square face, so she didn't immediately associate the two people who looked so similar together.

Gu Zhiyu on the side asked in confusion: "Since his daughter is in the Yao family, why doesn't he go to Deputy Chief Yao, but instead keeps following Chief Li?"

Secretary Wu sneered: "This guy is very smart! He has made two preparations."

He thought that eggs should not be put in the same basket. If Deputy Chief Yao remained standing, Yao Qianqian's good life would still be guaranteed.

But if Deputy Chief Yao fell, he couldn't fall with him. He had to rely on Li Mingcheng to become his daughter's new supporter.

Therefore, he has been following Chief Li with all his heart and effort, trying his best to help him deal with Deputy Chief Yao's little tricks, and loyally helped him do a lot of things, which earned the trust of the chief.

Originally, betting on both sides was indeed foolproof, but Xiao did not expect that Deputy Chief Yao would die so suddenly.

He was caught off guard and was in a state of panic.

Not only does he have to pretend to investigate a case, but he also has to help Li Mingcheng deal with the remnants of the Yao family, and he also has to find a way to make up a reasonable reason for his relationship with Yao Qianqian.

As a result, before he could finish his work, Yao Qianqian suddenly disappeared.
