"Lan Qingyue," Lan Qingyue said with a light smile.
Hello, Miss Lan.
Hello, Ms. Yang.
Lan Qingyue didn't want to linger outside any longer. "Miss Yang, now that the child has been found, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Goodbye!"
Goodbye, Miss Lan Qingyue!
"Mom, where's my older sister?"
In her father's arms, Gu Chenxi became restless as soon as she saw her mother, leaning forward and stretching out her hands to ask Yang Yue for a hug.
"Big sister has gone home."
Yang Yue picked up the child and said, "Yizhi, let's go home first!"
After getting home and putting the child to sleep, Yang Yue pulled Gu Yizhi back to the room, her heart pounding with excitement as she said, "Yizhi, I met the older sister Xixi was talking about today, and...and..."
That name has been a source of pain for this family since last year. Whenever it is mentioned, the atmosphere in the house becomes a little heavier.
Gu Yizhi's expression was gentle, the kind of tenderness he only showed to his wife and daughter. His voice was soft, like a gentle spring breeze, very comforting. He asked, "Who?"
...
Welfare home.
Because they arrived early, Gu Yizhi and Yang Yue quickly met Liu Qingqing, the director of the welfare home.
The couple were astonished by the dean's youthful appearance and the elegant and graceful demeanor she exuded. Who would have thought that such a young-looking woman was already fifty years old?
Liu Qingqing was equally surprised.
The couple sitting opposite you can't tell their real age just by looking at them; one thing is certain, they are very young.
Judging from their clothes, demeanor, and speech, it was clear that they were of noble status. Despite their illustrious family background, they had been separated from their closest relatives for many years.
Where are the children who should be enjoying the life of princesses or princes now?
Although Liu Qingqing has never married and has no children of her own, she has been the dean of the hospital for so many years and has taken care of homeless children for so many years. She has seen too many children who lack family love and can also understand the unbreakable bond between blood relatives. Even if they have never met, that bond has always been there.
"What do you two want to know today? I will do my best to help you!"
Liu Qingqing poured a cup of tea for each of them; the steam rose and the aroma filled the air.
"Director Liu, hello. My husband and I are here to ask you to look at the list and information of the girls taken in by the orphanage 25 or 26 years ago. Is that alright?"
Gu Yizhi set aside his arrogance, lowered his stance, and explained the situation to Liu Qingqing.
“I don’t know the specifics either, but do you have photos of the children when they were little? If so, I should be able to recognize them.”
He couldn't remember much about the past. He only remembered the thought that flashed through his mind when he saw someone by chance, and he himself found it somewhat absurd.
While finding it absurd, he was also driven by a strong feeling to investigate, whether it was true or false, he would only feel at ease after investigating.
"Okay, do you two have any other important information? That way I can easily look it up?"
Liu Qingqing added that an average of one child is sent to the welfare home every day, which means that children are abandoned every day for various reasons. Over the past twenty years, this number has become enormous.
"Dean Liu, you might want to take a look at this picture; it might be helpful."
