Chapter 354: I Just Feel That It Is A Little Unreal
“So, expand the scope of the investigation.” Shi Yuting turned around as he looked at Xiangyi with his dark eyes. “No matter who it is, as long as the person was standing behind her that day, I want you to investigate them thoroughly. This includes Gu Yansheng and also Tengtang Xi!”
Xiangyi was startled when he heard Shi Yuting’s words.
It turned out that Shi Yuting had also thought of this possibility himself.
Xiangyi glanced at Shi Yuting before he nodded slightly, “Yes, Mr. Shi.”
However, it was rather difficult for Xiangyi to look into the matter because the crime scene had already been cleaned out.
After all, Tengtang Xi had a very special identity. Moreover, so many days had passed since that day. If it was still on the same day itself, then they could just check the gun smoke response to determine whether she had actually fired a shot that day. Since it had already been so many days, it was now very difficult for them to investigate the matter.

In the ward.
Gu Yansheng and Zuo Weiyi had a very long conversation with one another.
“I really did not expect you to be Grandpa Zuo’s granddaughter.”
Zuo Weiyi could only smile slightly at Gu Yansheng before she lowered her head.
She was still a little confused about the truth behind her past.
Gu Yansheng could not help but feel a little puzzled when he saw no joy on Zuo Weiyi’s face at all.
If someone else had found out that she was the granddaughter of the president of a country, she would definitely be overjoyed and excited. However, Zuo Weiyi did not look happy at all.
Gu Yansheng could not help but wonder why.
“Weiyi, you… are you unhappy because you found out that you are Grandpa Zuo’s granddaughter?”
Zuo Weiyi raised her head and looked at Gu Yansheng before she smiled and said, “No, I just feel that this is a little too unreal.”
After all, she had always been living as an ‘illegitimate daughter’ that was mocked and humiliated by everyone for the past twenty-one years. After twenty-one long years, the president of a country suddenly popped up and said that he was her grandfather. Even if she was happy or excited, it was only reasonable for her to be in disbelief, right?
Furthermore, Zuo Weiyi did not know anything about her grandmother at all.
Zuo Weiyi raised her eyes to look at Gu Yansheng as though she has suddenly thought of something. “Well, I… I want to see Uncle Yu.”
Since Uncle Yu had been by Grandpa Zuo’s side for so many decades, he would definitely be very clear about everything that happened back then. Although Uncle Yu did mention some things about her grandmother yesterday, he did not explain everything clearly.
This matter was related to her life and Zuo Weiyi would have a very special identity if this was the truth. Therefore, Zuo Weiyi really wanted to figure out the truth. She did not want to make a mistake because if she made a mistake, then those people who were mocking and making fun of her would only sneer at and humiliate her more.
In order to ascertain what happened more than forty years ago, Gu Yansheng agreed to bring Uncle Yu over to the ward to see Zuo Weiyi.
Uncle Yu started explaining everything that happened in the past to Zuo Weiyi, from the times when Zuo Yi and Shen Ruoxi were merely acquaintances to the times where they became lovers.
After listening to her grandmother’s past, Zuo Weiyi felt that her heart was a little heavy.
If her grandmother knew that her grandfather has already registered their marriage with the Civil Affairs Bureau using her identity card and household registration book, would she still be forced to leave her grandfather?
But…
“How did Grandpa Zuo manage to register their marriage? Don’t both parties have to be present to register a marriage?” Zuo Weiyi felt that it would not be difficult for Zuo Yi to get his hands on her grandmother’s identification card and household registration book, but what about her signature? Wouldn’t she have to sign on the marriage certificate for their marriage to be officially registered?
Zuo Weiyi knew this because, both she and Shi Yuting also had to sign on the marriage certificate when they registered their marriage.
Uncle Yu could not help but laugh when he heard her question.
“Miss, it seems as though you have already forgotten the fact that Mr. President was already confirmed as the next president. Naturally, he could easily register his marriage without the need for Miss Ruoxi to be there in person. However…” Uncle Yu could not help but bow his head sadly as he thought about Zuo Yi’s regrets from decades ago.
