645: She could only be the eldest daughter of the Wang family in Hong Kong.

The Qiao Family.

Qiao Yan walked into the house.

In the study, Old Master Qiao and Father Qiao were talking. Seeing Qiao Yan walk in, they looked over.

"Dad, what's the urgent matter that required me to come back?"

Qiao Yan had originally been gathering with some friends. After receiving the call at the Western Restaurant, he rushed back immediately.

Father Qiao spoke with a face full of joy upon hearing his son's words.

"I heard a piece of news: Gu Qi's wife is still alive. Someone saw her in Yangcheng previously..."

What?

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yan's expression was somewhat surprised.

Aunt Gu is still alive?

Although their two families were rivals, outwardly, he still addressed Chief Gu as Uncle Gu, and Chief Gu's wife as Aunt Gu.

"Is that true?"

Father Qiao nodded.

"Who spread this news?" Qiao Yan was a little skeptical.

Aunt Gu had been missing for twenty years. How could she suddenly appear?

Could this be a trap, intentionally set to lull them into complacency?

"It was Zhang Fu. Zhang Fu saw her with her own eyes. Last time she was having dinner with your mother and the others, she got drunk and brought up this matter..."

What? Aunt Zhang Fu said it?

Qiao Yan did know that Zhang Fu had gone to Yangcheng several times. Last time Uncle Gu went to Yangcheng, Aunt Zhang Fu also went. But at that time, Aunt Zhang Fu failed to approach Uncle Gu.

They had previously thought of having Zhang Fu approach Uncle Gu. That way, they could also get more information.

"Is it really Aunt Gu?"

"Zhang Fu didn't manage to find out the identity of that woman..."

Father Qiao said.

"I have already sent people to investigate. However, we don't have a current photo of her, only photos from twenty years ago..."

"If it really is Aunt Gu, then this is interesting."

Qiao Yan smiled.

"She disappeared for twenty years and suddenly reappeared. Is there any news regarding Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing?"

Hearing his son's words, Father Qiao replied.

"They participated in a mission and have returned after completing it."

Hearing this, Qiao Yan's expression turned ugly.

They actually completed the mission?

Grandmother Qiao sat in the living room and said cheerfully.

"Xiao Yan and the others started chatting in the study as soon as they came back."

"At Xiao Yan's age, he should settle down." Mother Qiao had always wanted her son to marry someone from a suitable family who could strengthen the Qiao Family.

But over the years, she had arranged blind dates for her son; he attended some, but nothing ever came of them.

"Tomorrow, I need to have a good talk with Xiao Yan and tell him to find a partner and settle down. Now that the Lu Family boy is married, we can't let them get ahead of us."

Hearing her Mother-in-law mention Lu Jing, Mother Qiao said with a smile.

"I heard that Gu Family Granddaughter is now the Captain of the Special Forces Brigade Womens Team. Why is a girl working so hard? However, they probably won't get pregnant and have children within these two years. With such an intense training load, how could she handle having a baby? And if she were to have a child, she would definitely have to leave the Special Forces Brigade..."

Hearing her Daughter-in-law's words, Grandmother Qiao also laughed.

"Then I will definitely hold a Great-grandchild before Sister-in-law Lu."

Yangcheng.

Wang Yi rode in the car and returned to the Villa early in the morning.

"Mom."

"Mom."

Seeing Xiao Niannian, Wang Yi smiled.

"Niannian, Xiao Jing."

Wang Yi smiled, nodded at them, and sat down on the Sofa.

"Mom, you must be tired from the boat ride. Go up and wash up, then rest for a bit."

Hearing her daughter's words, Wang Yi nodded.

Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing made some Breakfast.

By the time Wang Yi came downstairs, Breakfast had already been served on the table.

"Sister, hurry up and come! Niannian and Xiao Jing made Breakfast."

Young Master Wang said happily.

He hadn't expected that he would now be able to eat food cooked by his Niece and Nephew-in-law.

Wang Yi smiled as she walked to the dining table. Looking at the Steamed Buns, Plain Buns, Soy Milk, Noodles, and Stir-fried Dishes on the table, she felt very happy.

This was Breakfast personally prepared for her by her daughter and Son-in-law.

"Delicious."

Wang Yi ate about half a portion more of this Breakfast than usual.

After eating, Wang Yi looked at her daughter.

"Why have you lost weight?"

Hearing her mother's concerned words, Xiao Niannian explained with a smile.

"I haven't lost weight."

Wang Yi didn't believe her daughter's words; she clearly looked much thinner. And her hands were also rougher.

"Your hands are rough too."

Although Wang Yi didn't know what kind of mission her daughter and Son-in-law participated in, losing weight and having rough hands meant it must have been a very dangerous mission.

"You have bloodshot eyes." Wang Yi looked at her daughter with heartache.

Xiao Niannian squeezed her mother's hand back.

"Mom, I'm really fine. Please don't be sad."

Wang Yi nodded.

Her gaze shifted to Lu Jing, seeing that he had also lost weight and had bloodshot eyes.

She took out two prepared Red Envelopes from her bag and handed them over.

"These are Red Envelopes from Mom for the two of you. Xiao Jing, this is the Address Change Fee."

"Thank you, Mom."

Lu Jing took the thick Red Envelope and immediately handed it to Xiao Niannian.

Seeing her Son-in-law's action, the smile on Wang Yi's face widened.

"Niannian, Xiao Jing, this is from your Uncle."

Young Master Wang also handed over a Red Envelope.

Xiao Niannian smiled, thanked him, and accepted the Red Envelope.

Wang Yi looked at her daughter and Son-in-law. She knew that the matter of their mission could not be discussed; it had to remain confidential.

Over the past few months, she had called Chief Gu many times.

A few days ago, she asked her Parents several times, but they all denied it.

Even though she had already found clues, those people had all left Hong Kong City.

At this moment, she was certain in her heart that she was indeed Zhang Yun. But she understood her Parents' concerns. Not only her Parents' concerns, but if she were to truly resume her identity now, it would greatly affect both Gu Qi and Niannian.

It wasn't just them, but also the two children, Gu Yuan and Gu Jin, and Lu Jing.

Although she hadn't been in the Mainland these years, she had received some news. There were conflicts everywhere.

And currently, those conflicts were quite intense.

The matter of how she went missing in the first place had not been thoroughly investigated.

She sent people to investigate Zhang Fu. Zhang Fu's identity was also clarified. The people she suspected included Zhang Fu, as well as others. But Zhang Fu alone couldn't have succeeded.

Those people harmed her and her daughter back then, and now they were still hiding in the shadows.

If she were to resume her identity, the Gu Family, the Lu Family, and other such families would suffer a huge impact. Therefore, she can only be Wang Yi, the Eldest Miss of the Hong Kong Wang Family, and not Zhang Yun.

Only when the time is right can she admit that she is Zhang Yun.

Her current appearance is different from Zhang Yun's twenty years ago. If she applies some makeup, the difference will be even greater. By then, anyone who sees her will only find a seventy to eighty percent resemblance.

If the Wang Family members don't acknowledge it, and she doesn't acknowledge it, no one can use her identity to strike at the Gu Family and the Lu Family, or to harm Gu Qi and Niannian and the others.

Xiao Niannian looked at her mother's expression and noticed that her mother had recently applied makeup, making her appearance slightly different from before.
