After your family was ruined and you were left destitute…” Nangong Mingchuan suddenly paused, “But back then, you had a friend named…Chen something.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chen something?” A flash of urgency passed through Tang Yuyan’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t remember. I only heard you mention her name back then; I didn’t know her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also why, after she left unexpectedly, he couldn’t find her friend, which led to them missing each other for over a decade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Yuyan lowered her head, not pursuing the matter any further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nangong Mingchuan noticed she had been growing increasingly gloomy lately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you still investigating the matter from over a decade ago?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hiding it, Tang Yuyan admitted, “Yes, a few days ago, Mrs. Huo mentioned a private detective who is very proficient in such investigations, so I contacted him today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Nangong Mingchuan furrowed his brows, “Are you sure? Don’t get scammed. Nowadays, many private detectives will deceive and swindle for money.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Yuyan looked up, fearing he would think this way. That’s why she hadn’t let him find the private detective but went herself instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Although the fee is somewhat high, I want to give it a try.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His wife persisted, so Nangong Mingchuan didn’t oppose her decision; after all, financial matters were not a burden for the Nangong family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He patted his wife’s hand, then stood up and headed to the second floor, planning to go to the study to take care of some matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Yuyan remained on the sofa, continuing to be lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had a friend back then?
