Chapter 277: Gu Gongming’s Daughter

Chapter 277: Chapter 277: Gu Gongming’s Daughter

"I found out that Gu Gongming used to be the most favored youngest son of the Gu Family, being groomed as the heir,"

"But forty years ago, he fell in love with a woman. Despite everyone’s advice against it, he voluntarily gave up his position as the heir and was determined to break with the family."

"At the time, it caused a huge commotion. The Gu Family was so angry that they declared they would forever sever all ties with him, but Gu Gongming did not care at all. He eloped with that woman, and from then on, he disappeared without a trace."

Although Huo Juanyan had not witnessed that past, he had also heard about it from his grandmother.

Gu Gongming left the Gu Family recklessly and in a huff, dealing a heavy blow to the family at the time, nearly causing the group to collapse, to be divided up by the major companies in City A.

Because of this, the Gu Family, fearful for their lives in City A, shifted the focus of their business abroad.

Now, although it seemed that there were four big families in City A, the real focus of the Gu Family had long since left the city, leaving behind only an empty shell."

Huo Juanyan had not expected that Gu Gongming was the very one responsible for the severe damage to the Gu Family.

He looked at Chen Li, "What else is there?"

Chen Li continued to present the information, "Although it seemed Gu Gongming had disappeared from the public eye, I found out that after leaving the Gu Family, he settled in City C with that woman, marrying her and, two years later, having a daughter with her."

"However, the woman died from complications during childbirth, soon after giving birth to the daughter."

She then brought out another document, "After holding a funeral for his wife, Gu Gongming returned to City A with his daughter."

"Hmm?" Huo Juanyan frowned and looked at her with confusion, "He returned to the Gu Family?"

Chen Li shook her head, "No, he didn’t return to the Gu Family; he truly disappeared without a trace."

Huo Juanyan’s voice deepened, "Disappeared again?"

Chen Li nodded, "Yes, someone deliberately erased all traces of his existence, creating the impression that he vanished into thin air."

Huo Juanyan’s gaze fell upon the last document in her arms, dark and somber.

Realizing his focus, Chen Li hurriedly held the last piece of information with both hands and placed it before him.

"President Huo, Gu Gongming did not continuously disappear. Two years ago, there was finally news of him."

Huo Juanyan looked down at the last document and started to flip through it.

He scanned it quickly, soon finishing the entire contents.

When his eyes reached the last line, his pupils suddenly darkened.

"Two years ago, Gu Gongming suddenly died in City A."

His cold voice was like ice.

Chen Li nodded with difficulty, "President Huo, when we next heard news of Gu Gongming, it was of his sudden death, and he was buried in the southern cemetery of City A."

Huo Juanyan pinched the bridge of his nose, his voice low, "And what about his daughter?"

Chen Li pursed her lips, "President Huo, regarding his daughter, I have a bold guess, but I have just arranged for someone to investigate. It might take a bit more time before we can confirm her identity."

Huo Juanyan’s expression turned cold, "Hmm."

The next second, Chen Li’s cell phone ringtone rang out.

Huo Juanyan glanced at her indifferently.

Chen Li immediately picked up her phone, saw the caller ID, and quickly said, "President Huo, the person I sent to investigate is calling. It seems that they have found something."

Huo Juanyan nodded, "Answer it."

Chen Li pressed the answer button and put it on speaker.

"Hello, did you find the information?"

The hurried breath of the other party came through.

"Secretary Chen, I found it, and it is just as you guessed!"

The breathing slowed down, and the words came through clearly.

"Gu Gongming’s daughter is Gu Chuxin!"
