Chapter 1413 - 1411: Yun Su’s Deceased Daughter
It never occurred to Yan Yan that Song Hanyi would investigate Yun Qiluo.
That night, he had his arm around Yun Qiluo, who had finished her novel and was already sleepy. After thinking for a moment, he still asked:
"Are you close with Luo Nianqing?"
"It’s okay, just regular friends," Yun Qiluo smacked her little lips. Although Nianqing was a pretty nice person, she always felt they couldn’t really play together. "What about her?"
"Nothing," Yan Yan lowered his head and kissed her. "Go to sleep."
Yun Qiluo had long been sleepy. She yawned, rubbed against his arms, and quickly drifted off.
.
The next afternoon, Secretary Qin’s investigation results came out. Yan Yan deliberately cleared time to listen to his report.
"Boss, I followed your instructions and checked it out. I found a very important piece of information," Secretary Qin sounded a bit excited. "Twenty years ago, Song Hanyi and Yun Su actually had a daughter, but when she was a bit over three, she died in an accident."
Yan Yan paused slightly. "They had a daughter?"
"Yeah, but this is a taboo for Yun Su. No one in their circle dares to bring it up again, and with so much time passing, a lot of people have just forgotten."
"Do you know what her name was?"
Secretary Qin shook his head. "I couldn’t find that. Song Hanyi locked this down very tightly." Then he continued, "But, Boss, you told me to start from Luo Nianqing’s side, and I did find something that might be related."
"Luo Nianqing has a childhood nickname, Luo Luo. People close to her all call her that. Supposedly, the reason Yun Su and Song Hanyi acknowledged her as their goddaughter back then was because of this."
"Then I thought of this—Miss Yun’s childhood nickname is also Luo Luo. Could it be..."
Yan Yan’s gaze grew deeper. He had thought of the same thing. If Luo Nianqing was taken in as a goddaughter because of that nickname, then it’s highly likely that the daughter the Song Hanyi couple lost more than ten years ago had the childhood nickname Luo Luo, or at least the same-sounding ’Luo.’
Secretary Qin was already impatient. "Boss, do you think there’s a chance that Miss Yun is actually Song Hanyi and Yun Su’s daughter?"
Yan Yan leaned back in his chair, his fingertips tapping the tabletop. After a long moment, he said, "It’s not impossible."
If Yun Qiluo really was the daughter of Song Hanyi and Yun Su, then a lot of things could be explained.
Like why he had investigated for so long yet never found any information about her parents, and why he had never heard of any family with the surname Yun losing a daughter more than ten years ago.
If, in Song Hanyi and Yun Su’s minds back then, they had already decided she was dead, then naturally they wouldn’t keep looking for her.
Moreover, given Lady Yun’s temperament and Song Hanyi’s doting-on-his-wife nature, their daughter back then was very likely to have taken her mother’s surname.
Also, more than ten years ago, Yun Su’s status in Z Country was already very high. No matter how bold that organization was, they wouldn’t dare openly kidnap her daughter. Setting up a scheme to make her think the child had died—wasn’t impossible either.
Yan Yan asked again, "Any other information about their daughter?"
Secretary Qin said, "There isn’t much on record, but Yun Su really liked that daughter. She used to take her to all kinds of events. They say the girl was very smart, far above kids her age in IQ. Back then, everyone in their circle called her a little prodigy."
Here, he paused, and, out of professionalism, added, "But this is all too far in the past to verify. I only know it from what I’ve heard. The specifics aren’t clear."
