"If you don't want to look for them, then don't look for them." Wen Chengyi whispered to comfort his wife, "You still have me and our daughter. We can live a good life as a family."
"No, we still have to find him, Mom, don't be so sad yet."
"Little Creek!"
"Dad, Mom, do you really believe what that old woman says? I don't. They say time reveals a person's true character. We've been with her for some years now. Do you think she's a kind person? If it were a boy, it would be fine, but Mom herself said that she's always favored boys over girls. Our family is so poor that we can't even afford to eat, and she still brought you home. Isn't that just asking for trouble?"
"this……"
Mu Fu raised her head sharply.
I was excited just now and didn't think about it carefully. Now after listening to my daughter's analysis, I feel that there is a problem here.
"Xiaoxi is right. There may be other hidden secrets here. If she really had a kind heart, she wouldn't have colluded with her son to do so many bad things. We'll know if what she said is true once we investigate." Wen Chengyi said after pondering for a moment.
"But that happened decades ago. Things and people have changed. How can it be that easy?"
"A passing swallow leaves traces. Once something happens, there will always be traces left. Let Lao Wu take care of this matter. He has a branch office in your hometown. The town is not big, so it's not difficult to find out some of the past. In short, what is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true either."
After hearing what her daughter and husband said, Mu Fu couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope in her heart.
If Cai Shizhen cheated on her again, would her parents still be around?
If she were still alive, would she be so worried about her whereabouts that she couldn't sleep or eat and was anxious all these years?
She was already a mother, and she still clearly remembered that she went crazy after her daughter disappeared in the shipwreck.
If her parents were still alive, she really didn't want them to suffer such torture.
"Okay, let's go find Lao Wu now."
Without wasting a moment, she pulled her husband and daughter out of the hospital.

The next day.
Wen Xi returned to school to continue training. She couldn't help with the investigation, and professional matters still needed to be left to professionals.
The teachers have a meeting in the afternoon, so classes are only half a day.
Xu Shan excitedly took Wen Xi shopping.
Seeing that she had red wine and candles, Wen Xi was surprised: "Why did you buy these? Are you in love? How come I didn't know anything about it?"
"Xixi, what are you talking about? I, I didn't."
Xu Shan's face suddenly turned red.
"No? Then who are you going to have a candlelight dinner with?"
"It's not for me, it's for my parents."
"Your parents?"
"Yes, the day after tomorrow is their 20th wedding anniversary. I think they seem to have forgotten it, so I wanted to give them a surprise."
"Since I've forgotten everything, is it necessary?"
"Well, I think important days should have some sense of ceremony." Xu Shan nodded heavily. "You know my dad has been home for a while now, but I always feel that there's something distant between him and my mom. Maybe it's because he was away from his debts for too long. I hope their relationship can be restored after this candlelight dinner."
Seeing Xu Shan's expectant look, Wen Xi opened his mouth but said nothing in the end. He helped her carry the bags back home.
It was almost evening and every household was busy preparing dinner. Those who cooked early had already started eating and the aroma of food could be smelled at the door of the unit.
"dad."
After calling out several times and no one answered, Xu Shan had to pull her hand out and open the door herself.
