One thing he's absolutely sure of is that after Bai Pu encountered Huang Zhishu, his bond with his girlfriend started deteriorating rapidly. On the other hand, his connection with Huang Zhishu grew increasingly intimate each passing day. Bai Pu once shared a deeply memorable event with him. After Hu Lewei argued fiercely with him, she headed to a bar for drinks and got completely wasted. Then, she ended up in bed with some other guy. Bai Pu had originally intended to wed Hu Lewei, yet that betrayal prompted him to end things. He sank into profound depression for quite some time. Huang Zhishu was the one who stayed close, offering constant comfort. That's how she ended up as Bai Pu’s wife. Once married, they discovered Bai Pu's infertility. At Huang Zhishu’s urging, they took in Huan Huan and Xi Xi from the orphanage. Upon joining the Bai family, Huan Huan got renamed Bai Chenxi. Xi Xi became Bai Jingrou. Following Bai Pu's death, the chauffeur departed the household. Since Madam ordered an investigation into Huang Zhishu, I delved deeply into Bai Pu’s life before his passing as well.”
Bai Qinghao offered expressionless praise. “Well done.”
Liu Li instantly looked grateful enough to burst into tears. “Boss, you've never commended this subordinate before. Your words fill this subordinate with immense honor.”
“Quit flattering.”
“Yes, Sir.” Liu Li stood tall. Still, joy bubbled inside him.
After all, the Boss seldom praised anyone. His cherished wife was the glaring exception.
“Boss, regarding your aunt Huang Zhishu, everyone from her past and present speaks glowingly of her. They describe her as virtuous, elegant, properly raised, and never troublesome.” Liu Li went on. “Moreover, she appears to have stayed impeccably behaved in the Bai family.”
“Is that so?” Bai Qinghao pondered deeply. “This woman concealed her real nature exceptionally well. During those three years she vanished… Huan Huan, Xi Xi…”
He glanced down at the photo of Huang Zhishu and Guan Jiping. In a grave tone, he commanded, “Head to the prison and extract a vial of Bai Jingrou’s blood. Get some from Bai Chenxi too. Run DNA tests comparing their blood to Guan Jiping’s and Huang Zhishu’s.”
“Yes, Sir.” Liu Li departed.
Bai Qinghao followed up. “Dig deeper into Bai Pu’s former girlfriend, Hu Lewei.”
“Yes, Sir.”
Once Liu Li was gone, Fang Xinxin kept examining Guan Jiping’s photo. She told Bai Qinghao, “Hubby, upon closer inspection, Guan Jiping bears a striking resemblance to Bai Chenxi and Bai Jingrou.”
“Plus, the siblings are just a year apart. Doesn’t that three-year gap when Huang Zhishu vanished align perfectly for her to bear two kids with Guan Jiping?”
“If that’s true…” Fang Xinxin shuddered involuntarily. “Huang Zhishu shoved Hu Lewei out of the way to claim her spot. Your Uncle Bai Pu got not only cuckolded but also raised her children in the Bai family with open arms. This woman’s schemes are utterly ruthless!”
Bai Qinghao’s face darkened intensely. “I remember Uncle Bai Pu singing Huang Zhishu’s praises that year. He boasted of vetting her background thoroughly and declaring her pure and virtuous. Back then, he was wild and defiant. Grandfather had lost faith in him and couldn’t oversee his choices. When he insisted on marrying Huang Zhishu, Grandfather noted she seemed like a pure maiden and let it slide. Now, it turns out I owe thanks to that late uncle of mine. He invited three vicious wolves right into our home.”
He pulled Fang Xinxin into his embrace. “My wife, it’s a good thing you pushed to probe Huang Zhishu. Who knows how long it would’ve taken me to uncover this otherwise.”
She gazed at him gravely. “I’m not concerned about the rest, but you found out earlier that Xiang Feili had dealings with Guan Jiping… Xiang Feili’s a fugitive on the run.”
