Chapter 499. Affection (1)
There was a tint of hidden sadness in his words. He closed his eyes and kept them shut for a long time.
Ah Mo was startled when he heard him. He stared at Mu Yuchen in shock. “Master, do you mean that… Lingshi’s biological father is highly likely the man we met at the graveyard?”
Ah Mo had put in a lot of effort all these years to look for Mu Lingshi’s biological father. They were destined to be together, so he knew what she was thinking.
Mu Yuchen opened his eyes and took a deep breath. “If I guessed correctly, there’s a very high possibility. I tried to filter through the people who were close to Lingtian before, but there aren’t many left. Even if it weren’t them, it has to be someone who’s close to Aunty. In order to satisfy these two conditions, there’s no one else.”
“If it is him, the fact that he visited their graves means he acknowledges Lingtian’s existence, and knows about Lingshi too, but why have we never seen him before? From what I remember, Aunty said that she had fallen in love with a person who couldn’t marry her. It must’ve been someone who holds a high position in society. Master, we should narrow down the scope and filter them out one by one. Lingshi has been struggling with this recently.”
Mu Yuchen turned his chair around and opened a drawer. He took a document out and handed it to Ah Mo. “These are the results of the investigation I ordered, including everyone whom Aunty interacted with when she was still alive, and their backgrounds. Use this to filter them out. Get Lingshi involved. There’s a lot of work to do here, but I believe we’ll be able to get something out of this.”
Ah Mo was startled for a moment. He then quickly took it and flipped through several pages. As expected, it was all the information of people as well as a mapping of their relationships.
“Don’t worry. As long as we’ve got a clue, we won’t get lost!”
Ah Mo closed the document and took a deep breath. “Leave this to me, Master. I’ll find him.”
