Chapter 355: Identification Result (2)
Zhao Youlin’s expression instantly looked blank. After some time, she was snapped out of her daze and understood the underlying meaning of the former master’s words. She casually closed the door.
The heavy wooden door hit the solid door frame and made a loud sound. Luckily, at that time, both Zhao Shunrong and Duan Yarong were still in the company. Otherwise, they would certainly feel uneasy and come upstairs to question them.
Zhao Youlin could not care much less about all this. She quickly went up to the former master and asked nervously, “Has the result of the paternity test been released? How is it? Is Mr. Han…”
The former master did not answer Zhao Youlin’s question. Instead, he turned around, took two reports from the table and passed them over to her.
Zhao Youlin received them in a haste. When she saw the following extremely similar identification results from the two reports, she was completely dumbfounded.
First appraisee, Han Yichen and second appraisee, Duan Yarong, the combined probability of mother-son relationship was 99.8%.
First appraisee, Han Yichen and second appraisee, Zhao Shunrong, the combined probability of father-son relationship was 99.9%.
“Indeed, he truly is…” Zhao Youlin held the reports in her hand tightly. Her voice started trembling.
No wonder she had found that Han Yichen looked so much like the combination of Zhao Shunrong and Duan Yarong. How could he possibly not have any relationship with them at all?
Even though many people in this world look alike. But, there were not many who resembled both the father and mother!
The former master’s heart clenched as much as Zhao Youlin did. The moment when he received the reports, his eyes had already turned red.
It was due to his excitement and guilt. His accidental negligence at that time had created an opportunity for others with ill-intentioned to take advantage of them. As a result, his eldest grandson was left stranded outside and had to endure various sufferings. At the same time, he had caused his own son and daughter-in-law to live in despair and suffered for so many years.
If only at that time, he had noticed the difference and had someone to conduct a thorough investigation regarding the incident, wouldn’t he have been able to avoid this twenty years of separation?
If not for Zhao Youlin coincidentally stumbled upon the child in distress and realizing that his eyes and nature resembled Zhao Shunrong, would they have never known in their lives that they still had a blood relative in exile?
As the former master thought of this, the hint of guilt in his eyes grew increasingly profound.
Even though Zhao Youlin was equally excited about this, she focused on the former master. When she saw him in his current state, she immediately read his mind and understood that he must have been thinking nonsensical stuff in his mind. She quickly said, “Grandpa, it’s a good thing that we’ve been able to recover Elder Brother for my parents. We should be happy.
Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, only then did the former master relax a little. He smiled gently as he said, “You’re right. This is something good. Where’s your elder brother now? I want to see him. By the way, you have to quickly inform your parents about it. They must be very happy to learn of this. Yes, yes, yes! I’m going to tell them now!”
“Hold on, Grandpa!” When Zhao Youlin saw the former master’s anxious look, she rolled her eyes in resignation. She grabbed his hand and said, “Did you forget what I’ve told you half a month ago? That guy had something to do, so he had left and would return after a month.”
“What? He’s left?! Youlin, how could you simply let him go? It had not been easy for us to finally confirm he is your elder brother. How could you just let him go? What if he’s not returning? What if something happens to him out there? What if… Sigh… You…” The former master was so worked up that he shouted at Zhao Youlin. In the end, he did not know what else to say. He looked heart-wrenching and heaved a sigh. Then, he remained silent.
When Zhao Youlin saw this, again, she rolled her eyes helplessly. So, was this the foreshadow of dumping his granddaughter once he had found his grandson?
“Alright, Grandpa. Don’t get so worked up. Your granddaughter-in-law is still staying in my outlet. So, your precious grandson would not run away.”
“What’s with my granddaughter-in-law?” Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, the former master was stunned. The moment he was snapped out of his daze, the matter piqued his interest. His eyes lit up and he stared at Zhao Youlin curiously.
The corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips unwittingly twitched. She heaved a sigh and said, “Your precious grandson seems to have fallen for a young lady working in my outlet. Oh, she’s the one who found him and took him back from the roadside that I mentioned before.
“The young lady who had taken my eldest grandson back from the roadside? Are you sure my eldest grandson has truly fallen for her instead of just purely trying to repay her kindness?”
Zhao Youlin felt a stump in her chest upon hearing the former master’s words. Why did everyone think that the incident between Han Yichen and An Yue was merely because that guy wanted to repay her kindness?
Was saving grace considered a burden that was difficult to understand about?
Zhao Youlin unwittingly felt pity for Han Yichen whose passionate love was repeatedly misunderstood by others.
“Grandpa, enough! Just look at Father if you want to understand your eldest grandson’s virtue. Do you think that Father looks like one who would compromise himself for the sake of repaying the opposite party’s kindness and even disregard his own safety for the sake of that party?”
The former master was rendered speechless. He had raised his own son and had been with him for forty years. He clearly understood that he was someone who would repay other people’s kindness. However, he certainly would not take his own feelings as a bargaining chip for repayment.
All his life, he only had one person in his heart. Even though at that time he already knew that Duan Yarong could never produce an offspring belonging to the two of them, he had never thought of dumping her and remarrying another woman.
Just like the former master himself. Even though his partner had passed away for many years, he had never had the thought of remarrying. This was because the two knew that once they decided to be with that person, it would be a lifetime commitment.
“Grandpa, let me be frank to you. The day before my elder brother came over to tender his resignation, an accident had happened in the kitchen. A large shelf that was filled with stuff fell down and nearly hit your future granddaughter-in-law. He was the one who had recklessly rushed over to cover up for her. As a result, his hand was wounded. Even though it was nothing big, he bled profusely. As such, I seized the opportunity to get a blood sample from him to conduct the paternity test. Doesn’t this fully explain the entire situation?”
“In other words, that kid is truly sincere when it comes to that girl.” The former master said in a low voice. He was slightly relieved over the fact that his future granddaughter-in-law was still stuck in Zhao Youlin’s outlet, and that his eldest son, whom he had taken great pain to recover, would not leave them once and for all.
“That’s right. Therefore, you could be rest assured that your eldest grandson would not run away. He said he would leave temporarily for a month only, he didn’t say he wouldn’t come back for the rest of his life. So, why do you have to get so worked up? Besides…” A hint of a smile flashed across Zhao Youlin’s eyes. “If I was right, he might give us a surprise by the time he returns to us.”
