CHAPTER 589: CHAPTER 591 DO YOU REMEMBER THAT COUPLE?

"Mom, if we don’t call the police, we won’t know if we can find the person once the baby is born." Gu Mingzhu was scared to death, her good days with Jiang Jing had just begun, and she didn’t want to die.

"Mom, is there something else you’re keeping from us?" Gu Mingzhu looked suspiciously at Fang Yue.

"No." Fang Yue quickly answered, and she diverted the topic, "Mingzhu, you shouldn’t scare yourself. You’re still young and healthy, so you’ll have the baby smoothly, and you’ll be fine."

"Mom, it’s better to be safe than sorry. Plus, now that Dad knows you want to find the baby, are you really going to stop looking halfway?" Gu Mingzhu had already realized that Fang Yue was keeping more from them. She took Fang Yue’s hand and said, "Mom, we’re mother and daughter. If you have something you can’t tell Dad, you can tell me."

"I can also help you come up with ideas." Gu Mingzhu’s voice turned deliberately gentle as she said, "Mom, I’m your daughter after all, I grew up by your side, don’t you trust me?"

"Mom, can you really bear to watch me die?" Gu Mingzhu’s eyes brimmed with tears as she pitifully said, "Mom, I haven’t been able to take good care of you yet, and I haven’t given birth to your grandchild. I don’t want to die."

"Mingzhu, it’s not that Mom doesn’t trust you." Fang Yue hesitated after Gu Mingzhu’s plea, also concerned that they hadn’t found the person after searching for so long and might not find the person even when the baby was born.

"Mom, if you’re worried, I swear, I promise not to tell anyone what you say." Gu Mingzhu raised her hand and made a solemn vow.

Fang Yue sighed and stopped her before she said, "Your grandmother wanted a grandson, and when I gave birth to another daughter, your grandmother would definitely force your dad to divorce me, and I was helpless.

Covering her face in tears, Fang Yue poured out all of the desperation she felt at that time.

Gu Mingzhu didn’t agree with Fang Yue’s actions, abandoning her own daughter, but in that moment, for her own sake, she consoled, "Mom, you were also forced into it. And then what happened?"

"Then, I took your sister to the Big Locust Tree." Fang Yue recalled the scene, still shuddering at the memory, and said, "I saw a couple take her away before I left."

"Do you remember what the couple looked like?" Gu Mingzhu inquired.

Fang Yue shook her head and said, "After so many years, I can’t remember anymore."

"Well, if they found the baby, they would have likely called the police. If we inquire at the police station, we’re bound to get some news." Gu Mingzhu had barely finished speaking when Fang Yue hesitated, "But what if your dad finds out..."

"Mom, do you think Dad cares more about her or about me?" Gu Mingzhu countered without answering.

Without a second thought, Fang Yue said, "Of course, he cares more about you."

Gu Mingzhu was intelligent and talented, something Gu Hai had praised several times. He only regretted that Gu Mingzhu was not a boy; otherwise, she would have been able to carry on the Gu Family business.

"Then there you go. Besides, if Dad isn’t looking for her, we can ask around quietly ourselves. Later, we can just make up an excuse to cover it up with Dad, right?" Gu Mingzhu was anxious to find the person and immediately said, "Mom, I’ll contact someone to inquire right away."

"Okay." Fang Yue of course trusted her daughter and told her the location as she remembered, and she remembered nothing more than the Big Locust Tree.
