He glanced at Fang Xinxin in admiration and continued."Guan Jiping took that photo in the Long family's courtyard. Twenty years ago, Guan Jiping was a servant in the Long family and he had even earned the favor of your Grandfather, Long Jingyuan. Later, he told the Long family that he wished to start his own business and resigned. Back then, Director Long Jingyuan even gave him a sum of money to support his business. However, after leaving the Long family, he did not contact any of the Long family's members again."
Bai Qinghao then turned to the second photo.
In the photo, Guan Jiping appeared to be in his twenties and held an attractive young woman in his arms.
The woman had her hair in a braid. Her refined and beautiful features were familiar.
Bai Qinghao immediately recognised her."The woman in this photo is... Huang Zhishu?"
Fang Xinxin looked at it carefully. Huang Zhishu normally was dressed to appear graceful and wealthy. Her hair was up in a bun most of the time.
However, the woman in the photo did clearly resemble Huang Zhishu.
She glanced at Bai Qinghao."Hubby, this is really your aunt, Huang Zhishu. It seems like Guan Jiping's relationship with her isn't simple."
Bai Qinghao's gaze turned slightly heavy.
Liu Li began his detailed report."In the past few years, Guan Jiping has taken up various labor jobs. Most recently, he is working as a delivery man. The few friends he has all say that he is a quiet and content man. If we look at the past few years, it seems like there is nothing suspicious about him. I visited Guan Jiping's hometown and spoke to almost everyone familiar with him. It was only then that I found out that he used to be a servant in the Long family. Furthermore, one of his relatives said that he used to date a girl while he was serving in the Long family. At the time Guan Jiping even announced that he would marry the girl. The two photos you see are the ones Guan Jiping mailed to his parents back then. Afterwards, it is uncertain why Guan Jiping did not marry her and even choose to stop working for the Long family. After Guan Jiping's parents passed away, he stopped returning to his hometown. I retrieved these photos from a metal tin beneath his parent's bed in their old home."
Bai Qinghao frowned as he asked coldly."What about Huang Zhishu?"
"Huang Zhishu was born into poverty. All of her old neighbors claim that she was a quiet and reserved girl. However, after she failed her high school entrance examinations, she went missing for three years. Someone claimed she had eloped with a gangster. However, Huang Zhishu returned three years later and told everyone that she had simply left the town to work. She even told them that she was still an innocent young lady and had never been in love. As the Huang family had a good reputation, no one spoke poorly about her. Soon after, she brought Boss's Uncle, Bai Pu, home to meet her parents. Afterwards, she married into the Bai home."
Liu Li paused for a moment and continued."This subordinate also heard from Qian Yang, the chauffeur that worked for Boss's Uncle while he was alive, that he had a girlfriend before he married Huang Zhishu. The girlfriend's name was Hu Lewei and the two had been deeply in love. However, Bai Pu was very playful and enjoyed flirting around. Once, he had fallen down when he was very drunk. At the time, it was Huang Zhishu who took him to the hospital. She even cared for him very carefully. Due to this, the two grew familiar. Huang Zhishu frequently volunteered at the orphanage and Bai Pu would occasionally accompany her there. As they interacted more with the children, they grew fond of a young boy in the orphanage named Huan Huan, as well as a young girl named Xixi.. Qian Yang says he was only a chauffeur and wasn't fully aware of the events that transpired between them."
