Gu Yuchen paused in his teasing of the child.
"The problem now is, we all know that the younger sister-in-law is still alive, but we've searched nearly everywhere in Country Z multiple times, even in forsaken mountains where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't defecate, yet we found nothing," he said.
Shen Xiuyi thoughtfully said, "Unless the younger sister-in-law is no longer in Country Z."
At this remark, both Lu Youting and Gu Yuchen turned their heads to look at him sharply.
Lu Youting had a sudden epiphany, becoming completely lucid.
"You make a lot of sense. Perhaps from the beginning, we were deceived by Lu Xiangxiang. She deliberately created a situation of desperation to make us believe that Sisi and she were both dead. In fact, she took Sisi and left."
Gu Yuchen asked, puzzled, "But what would be her purpose in doing that? To claim the younger sister-in-law as her own?"
Without any hesitation, Lu Youting and Shen Xiuyi responded in unison, "Ji Mingche."
