Lin Yi was taken aback for a moment, then laughed to himself after a few seconds.
"Are you kidding me? You're a person of status, and so am I. Our resumes from childhood to adulthood can be found. I'm the son of a movie star, and you're the daughter of two scientists. How could we possibly be siblings?"
He spoke these words with his head down, not daring to look at Jian Zhizhen.
Because he himself felt insecure.
He sensed many suspicious points, but some were difficult to explain.
So all I can do now is doubt myself.
Jian Zhizhen pulled up the electronic version of the previous DNA report and showed it to him directly as evidence.
“When my second brother… Jiang Fang was released, I took you home for a DNA test. Jiang Fang confessed to me about your two separate personalities and coexistence, and that you have already reunited with me and Mom and Dad. We haven’t told you yet because we were worried that you wouldn’t be able to accept that you’re not a member of the Lin family.”
Lin Yi looked at the report in disbelief.
After a long pause, he asked in surprise, "This, this is real?"
Jian Zhizhen nodded: "If you still don't believe me, you can have Jiang Fang come out and explain to you."
Lin Yi remained silent.
Does he still need to doubt?
Jian Zhizhen knew about Jiang Fang's existence and his dissociative identity disorder, which clearly showed that Jiang Fang trusted her a lot.
In his entire life, Jiang Fang had never trusted anyone other than himself; Jian Zhizhen was the only one.
Even with evidence, and even though he had subconsciously begun to believe it, Lin Yi still couldn't accept such a change all at once.
His mind went blank, and he opened his mouth slightly, truly not knowing what to say.
Jian Zhizhen sat down next to him and gently took his hands in hers.
She also liked to hold his hand like this when she was little. Her brother's hands were much bigger than hers, and she needed both hands to hold them.
Her voice was gentler than ever as she recounted the intricate bonds between them: "Brother, I believe there are inexplicable feelings between family members. Even though I didn't know Jiang Fang existed and didn't have this DNA data, I could still feel that you had already started caring about me."
Lin Yi looked at her quietly, still without giving a response.
But he knew perfectly well that what she said was true.
He did indeed have an inexplicable fondness for Jian Zhizhen when he first met her, and he would risk his life to save her when she was in danger...
However, in his memory, he was Lin Zong's son, and his biological son at that. There had never been any gaps in his memory... How did he become a member of the Lin family?
From his conflicted gaze, Jian Zhizhen could roughly guess what he was wondering about.
She took the initiative to explain his doubts: "Bai Bai, you may have been hypnotized or taken some kind of drug that altered your memories. But DNA cannot be changed, and you are indeed my biological brother from the same father and mother."
Lin Yi's mind became increasingly confused, and he felt his memory palace shaking again.
So everything I've believed all these years has been a lie?
His father, his sister, were all fake?
Moreover, considering Lin Yunfei's tone and intentions just now... did they already know?
Was it really as Qin Yubai guessed, that he was implanted with false memories?
For a moment, it felt like something was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't utter a single word. He lowered his head, staring blankly at his trembling fingertips.
Jian Zhizhen gave him some time to process the information.
After a while, seeing that he was still looking down and very frustrated, she leaned closer to his face and looked at him curiously: "Are you crying?"
"..." Lin Yi raised his head helplessly.
Normally, after such a huge shock, one should be at a loss, shocked, and in tears.
Now it's completely stopped flowing out.
Looking at the girl's clear, innocent eyes filled with laughter, and that look of anticipation on her face... how could he possibly cry!
Suddenly, even accepting the new identity didn't seem so difficult anymore.
“I believe we are indeed siblings, but I…” Lin Yi paused to organize her thoughts, “How did I get separated from the Jian family and become a child of the Lin family?”
This is also what Chien Chih-chen can't understand.
She could only tell him what she knew first: "My brother had an intellectual disability when he was young. When he was ten, he was taken away by his nanny. On the way, the nanny was in a car accident and died on the spot. We found the car and the nanny's body, but my brother disappeared."
"What happened after that..." Jian Zhizhen guessed, "Maybe the Lin family happened to be passing by and saved you? But my parents reported it to the police back then and searched for you all over the country. Don't the Lin family members use the internet? Why didn't they contact my parents and return you?"
Chien Chih-chen's guess is actually a very polite way of putting it.
She actually wanted to ask directly, "Why didn't Lin Zong send you back? Was it related to the nanny falling off the cliff? Did he deliberately kidnap you?"
But she was afraid that directly suspecting her brother's adoptive father would make him feel bad.
Lin Yi thought for a moment and slowly shook his head: "I don't know what exactly happened back then, but over the years, my dad has been very good to me, and we're no different from biological father and son. As for what happened back then... I don't know either. I'll go back and have a good talk with him after the show ends."
really.
He even had to find an excuse to explain Lin Zong's "polite guess" earlier.
Although Jian Zhizhen felt a little sad, he wouldn't be foolish enough to immediately hysterically say, "Your adoptive father and your fake sister are not good people," nor would he directly ask his brother to sever ties with Lin Zong, who had raised him for many years, and to stand on the opposite side to investigate him.
