Chapter 277 Gu Gongming's Daughter
"I found out that Gu Gongming was once the most favored youngest son of the Gu family and was trained as the family heir."
"But forty years ago, he fell in love with a woman and, despite everyone's dissuasion, voluntarily gave up his position as the family heir and was determined to break away from his family."
"It was a huge uproar at the time. The Gu family was so angry that they announced that they would never have anything to do with him again. However, Gu Gongming didn't care at all. He left home with that woman and disappeared from the public eye ever since."
Although Huo Junyan had not witnessed that incident, he had heard about it from his grandmother.
Gu Gongming left the Gu family without caring about anything and angrily, which caused heavy damage to the Gu family at that time. The group was almost destroyed and was divided up by major companies in City A.
Therefore, the Gu family at that time was afraid of dying in City A, so they shifted the focus of the company's business overseas.
Today, the entire City A seems to be dominated by four major families, but in fact, the focus of the Gu family has long been away from City A. It is just an empty shell that remains here.
Huo Junyan never expected that Gu Gongming was the culprit who caused the Gu family to suffer heavy losses.
He looked at Chen Li, "What about the others?"
Chen Li continued to take out the information, "Although Gu Gongming disappeared on the surface, I found out that after he left Gu's company, he married that woman and settled down in City C. Two years later, he and the woman had a daughter."
"But the woman died after giving birth to her daughter due to complications during childbirth."
She took out another document and said, "After Gu Gongming held his wife's funeral, he returned to City A with his daughter."
"Hmm?" Huo Junyan frowned and looked at her in confusion, "He came back to the Gu family again?"
Chen Li shook her head. "No, he didn't return to Gu's family. He really disappeared."
Huo Junyan said in a deep voice, "Disappeared again?"
Chen Li nodded, "Yes, someone deliberately erased all traces of his existence and made it look like he disappeared out of thin air."
Huo Juanyan looked at the document in her arms, and his dark eyes fell on it.
Chen Li noticed his gaze and quickly placed the last piece of information in front of him with both hands.
"Mr. Huo, Gu Gongming did not disappear forever. It was not until two years ago that there was finally news about him."
Huo Junyan lowered his eyes to look at the last piece of information and reached out to open it.
He skimmed through it quickly and soon finished reading all the content.
When he read the last line, his dark eyes suddenly turned gloomy.
"Two years ago, Gu Gongming died suddenly in City A."
The cold voice sounded like it had been quenched by ice.
Chen Li nodded with difficulty. "Boss Huo, the next time we heard about Gu Gongming, he had died suddenly and was buried in a cemetery in the south of City A."
Huo Juanyan pinched the bridge of his nose and said in a low voice, "What about his daughter?"
Chen Li pursed her lips and said, "Boss Huo, I have a bold idea about the news about that daughter, but I just arranged for someone to check it out. I may need some more information to confirm the other party's identity."
Huo Junyan's expression was cold, "Yeah."
The next second, Chen Li's cell phone rang.
Huo Junyan glanced at her indifferently.
Chen Li immediately raised her phone and saw the name on the caller ID. She quickly said, "Boss Huo, the person who went to investigate called and they should have found it."
Huo Junyan nodded, "Take it."
Chen Li pressed the answer button and turned on the speaker.
"Hey, did you find out the news?"
The sound of the other party's hurried breathing was heard.
"Secretary Chen, I found out, and it's the same as your guess!"
The panting sound gradually slowed down, and every word could be heard clearly.
"Gu Gongming's daughter is Gu Chuxin!"
