Chapter 109: 061: Begin the investigation into Lin Guixiang’s background_1

Hearing Wu Muzhen’s words, a giant stone that had been pressing on Fang Hongyu’s chest finally fell to the ground.

It was good that Tang Shaowei was alright.

Wu Muzhen turned to look at Fang Hongyu, her lips lifting into a slight curve, "Hongyu, your aunt and uncle are fortunate to have such a dutiful niece like you."

Fortunate?

Upon hearing this, all Fang Hongyu could see through her downcast eyes was a desolate expression.

She was obedient to Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei.

She never talked back to them.

She complied with everything they wanted.

Even outsiders said that not even a birth daughter might be able to do what she did.

But Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei never felt it was their good fortune.

They disregarded her feelings, and were always missing Tang Qiushui, even preventing her from entering the Tang Group...

Everyone said she was the future heir of Tang’s.

But only she knew.

She meant nothing in Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei’s hearts.

They were always on guard against her.

They had never considered.

That she was a person of flesh and blood as well...

Fang Hongyu sighed inwardly, her lips lifting into a smile, "Aunt Wu, don’t say that, I’m not that great. If I hadn’t come to my aunt and uncle’s house, breaking their tranquility, then Sister Qiushui wouldn’t have gone missing... In fact, over the years, I’ve always felt so guilty, guilty that I went to school that day, wondering why I didn’t stay at home and keep a close eye on my sister. If I had stayed at home, my sister wouldn’t have..."

After Tang Qiushui went missing, Fang Youling was devastated, spending her days crying.

The teenage Fang Hongyu didn’t know how to comfort her, so she studied hard every day, hoping her excellent grades would make her aunt happy and let her aunt know that she could also become her daughter.

Even though Tang Qiushui was gone, she could still honor them, take care of Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei in their old age on behalf of Tang Qiushui.

Unfortunately...

Fang Youling didn’t take her words to heart.

She spent every day looking for her daughter.

She even posted a reward of millions.

Nobody knew what a reward of millions meant thirty years ago.

When she saw that reward, Fang Hongyu was stunned.

She thought to herself.

If the person who went missing was herself, would her aunt and uncle spend such a huge price to find her?

Definitely not!

Because she wasn’t their birth daughter.

"Aunt Wu, I just hope my aunt and uncle can find my sister soon. They’ve worked hard for most of their lives and have never had a single good day; for the rest of their days, I hope they can be happy every day. As long as they find my sister, I am willing to do anything, even if it means giving up twenty years of my life," Fang Hongyu finished, her eyes welling up.

This matter clearly had nothing to do with Fang Hongyu, but she still took all the responsibility upon herself.

Who wouldn’t feel sympathy in her place?

Moreover, to find Tang Qiushui, she was even willing to give up twenty years of her own life.

Forget being a niece.

In today’s society, it would be hard to find many children of one’s own who could do as much as Tang Qiushui did.

Wu Muzhen placed a hand on Fang Hongyu’s back and sighed, "Good child, you mustn’t think that way. This has nothing to do with you; even if you hadn’t come to this family, Qiushui would still have gone missing. It’s Qiushui’s fate, how can you take all the responsibility upon yourself?"

"As an old friend of your aunt for many years, I too hope that she can find Qiushui soon. But after searching for so many years with no news, I’m afraid Qiushui might already..." she trailed off, her eyes also reddening.

There were some things she couldn’t say in front of Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei.

But often, one has to accept fate.

Having tried hard to find her and still without result, it’s better to cherish the people in front of you.

In this world, there is medicine for everything.

Except for regret.

With that, Wu Muzhen continued, "Hongyu, don’t think too much. There’s a saying, ’one can’t always do as others wish, but one can strive to be at peace with oneself.’ As long as you’ve tried your best, that’s enough. There is a divine watching three feet above, and I believe that one day, your aunt and uncle will see how hard you’ve had it."

Time reveals a person’s heart.

Although Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei have not yet publicly acknowledged Fang Hongyu as their successor.

But one day, they surely will.

The two of them have no children, but Tang’s family legacy must continue. Fang Hongyu is sensible and dutiful, and entrusting the Tang Group to Fang Hongyu is better than handing it over to outsiders.
