"Professor Yutel suggested that you find the woman Second Uncle Yu used to like."
"Hmm."
"Judging by his tone, this isn't the first time he has suggested it to you, is it?"
Qin Wan recalled what Professor Yutel had said at the hospital.
Yu Xusheng's slender fingers were pinching chopsticks, not picking up food, nor putting them down.
"Right."
"Then, have you found any clues?"
"Not yet."
Yu Xusheng pondered for a moment before saying, "Too many years have passed, and also, nobody in our family ever met the woman my second uncle was in love with."
"In that case, it's like finding a needle in a haystack."
Qin Wan continued the conversation, "I'm going to say something unpleasant—don't take offense. When Second Uncle Yu had his accident, that woman never sought him out. After all these years, she might have married someone else and had a bunch of kids."
