Gu Zhizhou looked at the young man in front of him.
The young man's features were so similar to his own that when the young man appeared before him and told him that he was his son, he was deeply moved.
After his initial shock, Gu Zhizhou gradually understood what had happened.
“I had no idea you existed. For thirty years, your mother has never looked for me.”
The man sneered: "You probably wish my mother would disappear from your sight forever, right? Heh, you feel guilty towards her, so you're afraid to see her. She gave up her identity and her promising academic future for you, and even became an unwed mother for you, raising me all by herself. And you? After returning to the capital, you quickly married the Qin family's daughter, having long since forgotten about that foolish woman."
Hearing this, Qin Lin vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
She grabbed Gu Zhizhou by the collar: "Gu Zhizhou, tell me yourself, is he really your son?"
"I..." Gu Zhizhou opened his mouth, but couldn't bring himself to say the word "yes".
"Heh, what a show." A deep voice, laced with anger, boomed.
Old Master Gu, Old Madam Gu, and Gu Zhizhou and Qin Lin all looked towards the door.
"dad!"
Upon seeing Old Master Qin, Qin Lin's eyes immediately welled up with tears, which streamed down her cheeks.
The disappearance of her son has been causing her sleepless nights and loss of appetite for the past few days.
Unexpectedly, something even more unexpected happened to her today.
After many years of marriage, she discovered that her doting husband had an illegitimate child, and she had been kept in the dark for almost thirty years.
Old Qin walked over, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Brother Qin, don't be angry yet, let this kid explain first."
Old Qin snorted coldly, staring straight at Gu Zhizhou.
"No need to sit, just stand here and talk. Gu Zhizhou, is this kid your son?"
"dad……"
"Actually, it's okay if you don't answer. Just get Lao Fu here and have him do a paternity test for you. You can get the results today."
“Okay, I agree with this approach.” The young man smiled faintly.
Old Qin's sharp gaze shot towards him.
Looking closely at the young man in front of him, he noticed that his features were very similar to Gu Zhizhou's, and he even looked quite like A Ye.
Looking at Gu Zhizhou's expression, Old Qin already knew the answer.
"Dad, it was you who insisted that I marry Gu Zhizhou back then. You really ruined your daughter's life." Qin Lin cried and complained when she saw Old Master Qin.
Old Qin's face was ashen, his lips were pursed, and he remained silent.
Naturally, I felt bad.
Soon, Old Fu arrived.
"Mr. Gu, why did you call me to your home in such a hurry? Are you feeling unwell?"
Old Master Fu, wearing reading glasses and carrying his usual medicine box, hurriedly walked in.
Mr. Fu is a retired expert from the military hospital and also lives in the compound.
If Old Gu had any ailments, he would usually ask Old Fu to come and see him.
Therefore, when he learned that Old Master Gu had invited him to the Gu family, Old Master Fu assumed that Old Master Gu was ill.
But when they entered the room, they found the old man standing there unharmed, his face full of confusion.
"Old Fu, could you please help Zhizhou and this young man... get a paternity test done?"
Upon hearing the reason for Gu Lao's invitation, Fu Lao's expression faltered slightly.
His gaze shifted from Gu Zhizhou to the young man, and he immediately understood.
"OK!"
After taking the blood sample, Old Fu said to Old Gu, "The results will be out in two hours."
"Old Fu, then I'll have to trouble you."
"Of course, I'll go to the hospital now."
Two hours later
Mr. Fu personally delivered the appraisal results to the Gu family.
The test report shows that Gu Zhizhou and Pei Shaoyuan are father and son.
Upon seeing this result, both Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu fell silent.
Gu Zhizhou looked dejected; this had happened too suddenly.
The thought of suddenly having such a grown son overnight must have felt like a thrilling rollercoaster ride.
"Young man, what's your name?" Old Gu had mixed feelings about the young man who had suddenly appeared before him.
If he really was the son who committed the sins outside, then he is his own grandson.
Pei Shaoyuan.
Old Gu silently repeated the name in his heart: "Your mother's surname is Pei?"
"Yes! Commander Gu should be aware of this."
Gu Zhizhou lowered his head and remained silent.
Qin Lin felt her head buzzing, and a surge of anger welled up in her heart.
She tapped her throbbing forehead: "I'm not feeling well, Dad, Mom, excuse me."
"Wife, what's wrong?" Gu Zhizhou hurriedly stepped forward to ask with concern.
Qin Lin waved away his outstretched arm with a look of disgust.
"Don't touch me! Gu Zhizhou, I don't have time to deal with your mess right now. I just want to see my son as soon as possible."
Gu Zhizhou felt guilty towards Qin Lin: "I have already sent people to look for A Ye. He is such a smart person, he will definitely be fine, so don't worry too much."
“He’s missing now and may be in danger. How can I, as his mother, not worry? Heh, you’re the one who’s not worried. Even if something happens to A-Ye, don’t you still have another son?”
"Qin Lin, how could you think of me like that? How could I not worry about A Ye? I know you're angry with me right now, but I still want to say that in the twenty-nine years since we got married, I have never betrayed you. I met Shao Yuan's mother when I was studying abroad, and I had no idea she was pregnant. So... I only found out about Shao Yuan's existence today."
"Stop talking, I don't want to hear your explanation. In short, I don't want to see you right now, so as not to affect each other, you shouldn't go back anytime soon."
After saying that, Qin Lin turned and walked resolutely toward the door.
Old Qin watched his daughter's departing figure without saying a word to stop her.
"Gu Zhizhou".
"Dad!" Gu Zhizhou, exhausted, turned his gaze to Old Master Qin.
“When you and your husband had conflicts before, I always criticized Qin Lin. She is my daughter, and I know her personality very well. I also know that you have been tolerant of her in many ways over the years you have lived together. But I never expected that you would hide such a big thing from her. I think, just like Qin Lin said, you two should both calm down first.”
"Brother Gu, congratulations on the birth of another grandson."
"Brother Qin, please don't say that."
Old Qin waved his hand with a cold laugh: "Forget it, I won't disturb your family reunion. I'll find my grandson myself. You shouldn't be so worried about him now."
“Brother Qin, I raised Seventh Brother myself. She is the apple of my eye. My own grandson is now missing. How can we, as his grandparents, not be worried? What you are saying really breaks my heart.” Madam Gu’s eyes were moist.
