The charm between his brows, and the noble aura he carried, were so strikingly similar to Rong Shaoze.
He was the spitting image of a younger Rong Shaoze!
Just by looking at him, if someone were to say he wasn’t Rong Shaoze’s child, no one would believe it.
However, they wouldn’t blindly confirm that he was Rong Shaoze’s child either.
Some things needed to be verified truly; without sufficient evidence, no one dared to acknowledge his identity.
Xiaocong’s face, exposed to everyone, indeed caused a significant shock in their hearts.
When Rong Mingyan saw him, his face changed immediately.
First, a hint of shock flashed through his eyes, then they narrowed slightly, a trace of sharpness sliding through, and finally, his gaze deepened, making it impossible to read his thoughts.
Rong Guangguo also fixed his gaze on Xiaocong, and when he saw his face, he suddenly grew excited, his burning eyes firmly locked on the boy’s small face without straying away.
Rong’s mother stood in a daze for a long while before pinching her leg hard, it hurt, she wasn’t dreaming!
She looked from Xiaocong to Lin Xinlan and then back again, repeatedly shifting her gaze between them.
She was utterly at a loss for words.
At this moment, her inner world was particularly complex.
There was shock, disbelief, joy, heartache, and doubt.
Is this child really Shaoze’s?
How could Shaoze have such an old child? She had no idea at all, she actually had a grandson, and he was already four or five years old!
Rong’s mother still thought she was dreaming, it must be a dream, otherwise how could such an incredible event occur...
Lin Xinlan took their reactions all in, very good, their responses had reached the effect she expected.
They also began to doubt, whether Xiaocong was Rong Shaoze’s child.
Originally, she had hidden Xiaocong with great effort, not letting Rong Shaoze discover him because she worried that Rong Shaoze might become suspicious upon seeing his face.
After all, Xiaocong resembled him too much, and the likeness was striking.
This was also why, when she met Rong Shaoze for the first time after five years, she could recognize him and knew he was Xiaocong’s father.
Since she faced Xiaocong’s face every day, naturally she could also remember Rong Shaoze’s appearance firmly.
Sitting on the sofa with the child in her arms, Lin Xinlan smiled serenely,
"Now do you still think this child isn’t Rong Shaoze’s? If you still don’t believe it, you can go for a DNA test. I think the police station should have a sample of Rong Shaoze’s blood. Or, the lady can go with him for testing to see if they are grandchildren."
She spoke with such certainty and composure, not at all afraid of them conducting any tests.
It was evident that she was confident, and this child was definitely Rong Shaoze’s.
Rong’s mother suddenly snapped back to reality and exclaimed firmly, "No need for a verification! I believe, he is Shaoze’s child, my grandson!"
Her intuition told her that this child was definitely Rong Shaoze’s bloodline.
Seeing Xiaocong, she felt an inexplicable sense of kinship.
If they weren’t connected by blood, how could such a feeling of closeness exist?
After being excited for quite a while, Rong Guangguo finally caught his breath, pointed at Xiaocong, and asked Lin Xinlan in disbelief, "Is he really Shaoze’s child? Tell me, what is going on?"
Even Rong Guangguo had started to believe.
Rong Mingyan clenched his jaw, looking down to hide the coldness in his eyes.
Was he really Rong Shaoze’s child?
