281: You are brothers
Gu Jun knew he should be patient and listen.
Listen a little longer and the man will reveal more about himself.
After listening for a while, Jason was pushed more by the man and would naturally lean more towards Gu Jun's side.
However, when Jason heard the man's questioning, he couldn't even say a word of rebuttal, and Gu Jun became inexplicably angry.
Jason is an adult in his twenties. Are you still treating him like a child?
Gu Jun pulled off his headphones and walked into the coffee shop.
Seeing Gu Jun, the man was stunned at first, then he realized, "You're following Lin Sen?!"
Gu Jun neither admitted nor denied it. Just as Gu Jun said just now, if you don’t even want morality, you won’t be kidnapped by morality.
"I'm worried about Jason."
Gu Jun corrected the man's statement: "Jason only wants his paintings. You helping Jason bring the paintings back to South City was fake. The real purpose was to take him abroad. Jason has been able to control his emotions very well since leaving Fu Hong. Your sudden return has made him anxious. I have spent so much effort to let him live the life he wants. Why do you want to destroy the fruits of my efforts? Blood relationship is not something you can rely on to force Jason. He is already an adult and does not need a guardian to make decisions for him!"
Gu Jun's words could be said to be very impolite.
The man didn't care about being angry when he heard the last sentence. He looked surprised and said, "...Do you think Lin Sen is my son?"
Gu Jun frowned.
What does it mean, isn't it?
Gu Jun couldn't help but look at the man. He didn't look very outstanding from a distance, and he looked even more ordinary when he looked closely. He really didn't look like Jason.
So, Jason is not the son of Fu Hong and the man in front of her. Jason’s biological father is someone else?
The man obviously knew what Gu Jun was thinking, and his voice became anxious: "You misunderstood. Although I have been taking care of Lin Sen, he and I are not related by blood. He is your biological brother from the same mother and father! You also have a big misunderstanding about your mother. Your father is suspicious by nature and always suspects that your mother has an affair with other men. Your mother ran away from home because she couldn't stand it. She was already several months pregnant when she left your father. Lin Sen is your biological brother!"
When talking about these past events, there was still anger in the man's tone. Obviously, Fu Hong had said a lot of bad things about Gu Wenting in front of the man.
Gu Jun had actually thought about this.
Jason and Gu Jun look so much alike.
If they were half-siblings, they shouldn't be so similar.
But Gu Jun's memory was incredibly good. He still remembered hearing his parents argue as a child. Gu Wenting scolded Fu Hong for being fickle and for having an affair, ruining the child she'd fathered. Fu Hong hysterically yelled at Gu Wenting, calling him a worthless loser and saying she just wanted to have a child with a capable man. Gu Jun's head felt like it was being stabbed with needles. Fu Hong had admitted to cheating, so how could Jason be his brother?
Gu Jun turned to look at Jason, who looked even more shocked than Gu Jun.
Apparently, Jason didn't know this before.
Gu Jun's face darkened, "You'd better not lie to me!"
The man was indeed very confident about this matter. "Whether I lied to you or not, you can find out by yourself by getting a diagnosis. You have both money and connections, so no one can fool you. Come back to me after the diagnosis results come out, and I will tell you why your mother ran away from home."
Gu Jun turned to Jason and asked, "Do you want to chat for a while?"
Jason shook his head. "I don't have anything else to say."
The man did help Jason bring Black Sea back home. Although the conversation with Jason didn't go as planned, and he didn't use Black Sea to manipulate Jason, he still let Jason take the painting away. Judging from the man's work style, he was much more reasonable than Fu Hong. No wonder Jason didn't want to see Fu Hong again, but took the initiative to contact the man.
On the way to deliver the painting to Jiang Zhiyan, Gu Jun took the initiative to break the silence:
"I thought he was you..."
Jason was still in shock and his words were a little stammering: "I thought so too... Although I always call him uncle, I thought..."
I thought "uncle" was just a cover-up because the man was not comfortable admitting that Jason was his son.
However, today in front of Gu Jun, the man said that he had no blood relationship with Jason.
Not to mention Gu Jun, Jason himself was also very confused.
If he is not your father, why should you be so nice to him?
I paid for his painting studies, sent him to private school, helped him immigrate, and held art exhibitions for him.
Gu Jun calmly inquired, "He has been taking care of you all along?"
"Yeah, it always has been like that. Ever since I can remember, there's been no one else I call uncle but think of as dad."
These words had been weighing on Jason's heart for a long time. Now that he had an outlet, he wanted to spill them all. "I've known since I was little that my family was different. Other kids had moms and dads, but I only had my mom and an uncle I seldom saw. My uncle was very kind to me, but he wouldn't take me to the amusement park. The three of us rarely went out together. On the rare occasions when we had to be together, he would be extra cautious and intentionally keep us hidden. For a long time, I had no idea what my uncle did for a living, or where he lived when he wasn't with us."
One day when he was in elementary school, Jason heard the words "mistress" and "illegitimate child" from a classmate for the first time. The classmate's father raised the mistress and the illegitimate child in another place, and the incident came to light when a relative from his mother's side of the family was on a business trip.
Then there was a fight, a divorce battle, and the feud between the adults involved that classmate, who turned from a good student into a problem student in just two or three months.
When Jason heard his classmates swearing at mistresses and illegitimate children, he couldn't help but put himself in their shoes.
It turns out that he is the illegitimate child who cannot see the light of day.
After realizing this, Jason was afraid to get close to his classmates. He didn't dare to make friends, and his friends would often visit each other because he was afraid that his secret would be discovered!
Jason was not the only one who had this wild thought. After he suspected that he was an illegitimate child, he even asked Fu Hong about it.
Fu Hong's expression was very ugly, but she did not correct Jason's thoughts.
"For so many years, I thought I had a illegitimate child. She always knew about it. Why didn't she tell me?"
Jason covered his face with his hands, tears still streaming from between his fingers.
"She knows everything, she knows everything!"
I know that he is suffering because of this, humbled because of this, and cannot hold his head up because of this.
Fu Hong clearly knew why he was suffering, but she said nothing and did nothing.
If he is really the Gu family's child, why not tell him?
Jason would rather be abandoned by Fu Hong in Gu's house like Gu Jun, and would rather grow up with his poor grandfather like Gu Jun, than live in a townhouse and study art in a private school... Hahaha, how ridiculous, after he has lived as an illegitimate child for more than 20 years, he is suddenly told that he is not even an illegitimate child?
If he is not even an illegitimate child, then he is a parasite. Together with Fu Hong, he parasitizes a married man, spends the money given by the married man, and enjoys the learning conditions provided by the married man.
Jason sat in Gu Jun's car and cried without caring about his image. Gu Jun didn't know what to say. When Jason was tired of crying, Gu Jun handed him a tissue: "This is not your fault."
