Chapter 6 The result? The truth!
Pei Yan's investigation results were quickly sent to Gu Mocheng's mailbox. It was very simple, only one page, and part of it was consistent with what Lu Ming had inquired about.
It also shows the name of the orphanage where Ye Nuan lived as a child, "The House of Lonely Leaf".
Pei Yan wanted to find some useful information in the orphanage, but the orphanage in Q County was small, dilapidated and old, and the system for entering information was not perfect now, let alone 25 years ago.
Through the paper registration files, we only know that Ye Nuan was indeed picked up when she was a baby. The police were unable to confirm her identity and had to send her here. She has no name, and the name Ye Nuan was also given by the orphanage.
How could there be such a coincidence? Gu Mocheng had doubts in his heart, but he didn't want to prove anything.
If Ye Nuan is related to the Gu family, she must be a twin with Wanwan. Her mother was indeed pregnant with triplets back then. So what about Xixi?
When the mother gave birth, what had switched the baby? Why? Gu Mocheng felt that there was a big problem behind this.
Pei Yan's call interrupted Gu Mocheng's thoughts: "Brother, did you see the email I sent you?"
"Um."
"Brother, there are some other situations:
The conditions here are too poor, and the orphanage’s annual subsidies are sometimes not enough. The children here can still rely on subsidies to go to school and live before high school.
After they turned 16, most of them chose to leave in order to give their younger children a better life, and went to high school by working and receiving government subsidies for poor students.
The director said that this was even more so in the past, with very few adopted children. Sometimes the children here had to distribute flyers and do odd jobs to earn some money.
I went to the high school where Ye Nuan was studying. Her teacher said that she looked malnourished when she was in high school. She was thin and small, and didn't talk much. She would apply to stay overnight at the school during holidays, and would work part-time near the school during winter and summer vacations. But she studied very hard.
"Yeah, I understand."
"Brother, there's a photo of her in the excellent student column of their school. She really looks like Sister Wanwan. How about doing a paternity test..."
"Okay, come back as soon as you finish the investigation." Gu Mocheng interrupted Pei Yan.
Paternity testing is indeed the fastest way to prove whether Ye Nuan is a member of the Gu family, but what happens after the test?
Gu Mocheng hesitated. He always thought things through and didn't want any unexpected mistakes to happen. If that was the case, why would the Gu family have an extra child out of nowhere?
Such a thing is unbelievable for the entire Gu family, especially for the grandparents who are in poor health.
Gu Mocheng's work efficiency has been very low these past two days, and he has been sitting in the office for half a day. Suddenly, the ringing of his cell phone broke his thoughts. He picked it up and saw that it was his father, Gu Lizhou.
"Acheng, are you in the office now?"
"I'm here, Dad. What's wrong?"
"If you have any meetings later, please postpone them. I'll be right there and I'll talk to you in your office."
"Well, okay." Gu Mocheng heard the seriousness in his father's tone and waited for his father to come over without asking any more questions.
Ten minutes later, Gu's father pushed the door open and locked it.
"Dad, what happened?" Gu Mocheng looked at his father's strange behavior.
Father Gu sat on the chair opposite Gu Mocheng and said, "Originally, I didn't want to tell you brothers about this, but now that it involves the stability of the company, I have to dig up some old stories."
Past events? Gu Mocheng frowned slightly. Could Ye Nuan be related to this?
"When your mother was pregnant with Wanwan and the others, something went wrong in one of the factories under the Gu Group.
At that time, a relative of your aunt's family worked as a technician in a factory. Due to negligence, he missed a part, which caused the machine to suddenly break down during the trial run. It injured the programmer who was debugging it and turned him into a vegetable.
At that time, the factory discovered the problem after investigation. Although the factory apologized and compensated, the programmer was the only college student in his family and the hope of their entire family.
When the programmer grandfather heard the news, he suffered a heart attack on the spot and the hospital was unable to save him. His family was determined not to let go of the technician who made the mistake, who was your aunt's relative.
In order to resolve this matter, your aunt's family members begged your grandfather for a long time, hoping that the old man would come forward and solve the problem with money. As you know, your aunt's status in her family was already bullied by a group of brothers, and your uncle felt sorry for your aunt, but he did not have the ability, so he had to ask your grandfather for help.
Finally, your grandfather got fed up and tried his best to communicate with that family. He promised that the programmer's family would be supported by the Gu family in the future and that they could work in any of the Gu family's industries.
But the family said they didn't dare take the Gu family's job, otherwise the whole family might be involved, but at least they agreed to the first request. "When Father Gu said this, he sighed deeply.
"Hasn't that family come to make trouble for so many years? Why are they suddenly bringing up this matter again?" Gu Mocheng was puzzled.
"So many years have passed, and every year the Gu family has allocated a sum of money specifically for their family. I thought we could live in peace.
But a month ago, the programmer lost his vital signs, and his brother came to our house again and started making a fuss, saying that our family owed them two lives, and if it weren't for what happened that year, their family would definitely be living a happy life now.
But now that his younger brother had left, the family's resentment had reached a peak. His eldest brother even threatened: "Now that he's not young anymore and has no more burdens, he will definitely take vengeance on the Gu family."
"Dad, is this also the reason why you reminded me after Xixi got into the car accident?"
"Well, they are just ordinary people. They wouldn't do anything that would affect the company's finances. I'm only worried about the safety of our Gu family."
"Why do they hate our Gu family so much? What about my aunt's nephew?"
"Alas, besides being sad, they were also attracted by the Gu family's money. If they hadn't been greedy at the time, even if your grandfather gave them all his property, they would not have let go of the technician who caused everything."
Gu Mocheng was silent. If Ye Nuan was really related to this matter, there must be endless grievances and sorrow behind it!
