Chapter 1058: Vegetative State

Editor: Henyee Translations

Bai Shao was shocked. “Miss Xiao, Miss Gu, why are you looking for me?”

These two young ladies were today’s esteemed guests. As the head of the Bai family, he naturally knew them.

However, he did not expect them to take the initiative to look for him.

Ji Linbai had the self-awareness of a tool. After calling Bai Shao over, he retreated.

Gu Yang smiled. “I want to understand the matter of ordering my daughter from Family Head Bai.”

Bai Shao nodded and asked, “Which daughter are you talking about?”

Gu Yang fixed her gaze on him. “Bai Yueshuang. Is she truly your daughter? How did she end up in Cloud Rising Orphanage?”

Bai Shao replied, “Yes, Yueshuang is my daughter, born to me and the woman I loved most. Twelve years ago, when she was just over seven, that woman, Ji Yi, took her to the mall and deliberately lost her.”

He continued, “After that, she was kidnapped and sent south. After various misfortunes, she ended up at Cloud Rising Orphanage.”

Gu Yang and Gu Jin exchanged glances, confirming that their findings about Bai Yueshuang’s background were accurate.

Gu Jin looked at Gu Yang with a questioning expression, seeking permission to proceed.

Gu Yang gave a slight nod.

Gu Jin then addressed Bai Shao with a cold demeanor. “How did you locate Bai Yueshuang five years ago? When and where did you find her? What was her condition at that time?”

Five years ago, when the Bai family found Bai Yueshuang, it was after the light cone experiment. By then, Gu Yang had already left Bai Yueshuang’s body, and it was now occupied by herself.

Bai Shao, under Gu Yang’s influence, answered readily. “During the seven years Yueshuang was missing, I used the Bai Family’s connections and hired people to search for her on the dark web.”

“However, our search radius was always limited to the vicinity of the capital. I never expected her to end up so far away in Liang City.”

Bai Shao continued, “Eventually, I learned from Ji Yi that, five years ago during the summer, people I hired from the Dark Network found her in a Liang City hospital and brought her back to the capital. Unfortunately, by then she was in a coma and in a vegetative state.”

“Liang City Hospital…” Gu Jin’s gaze grew intense. “Who sent her there?”

Bai Shao shook his head. “I don’t know.”

Gu Yang and Gu Jin exchanged worried glances. They suspected that whoever sent Bai Yueshuang to the Liang City hospital might be connected to Utopia. Unfortunately, Bai Shao had no information on this crucial detail.

Given that the incident occurred five years ago, investigating the Liang City hospital might yield no useful clues due to the passage of time.

Gu Yang asked, “So Bai Yueshuang has been in a vegetative state all these years?”

Bai Shao nodded. “Yes. She has been receiving treatment abroad all this time. She only recovered and woke up two years ago.”

Gu Yang’s thoughts cleared. She had wondered why Bai Yueshuang, who had Wuyang’s memories, hadn’t appeared earlier to search for her sister and the others.

As long as she stayed ahead of her, her chances of successfully impersonating Wuyang would increase significantly. There was no need to wait for Team Blue Whale to reappear.

Gu Yang asked, “Why did you conceal that Bai Yueshuang was receiving vegetative recovery treatment overseas? And why did you forge her piano major at the music academy?”

Bai Shao replied, “It was all Yueshuang’s idea. She didn’t want anyone to know about her time in the orphanage or her vegetative state. She also had a passion for the piano and wanted a prestigious education.”

He continued, “Both her time in the orphanage and her being in a vegetative state were not things she wanted to be known, so I helped to cover them up.”

At that moment, Ji Linbai, who had been standing nearby, coughed lightly and approached. “Someone is here to see Bai Shao.”

Gu Yang noticed Bai Yueshuang approaching and quickly asked Bai Shao one last question. “Does the Bai family have any dealings with the Utopia organization?”
