Chapter 1016 - Just Based on Your Intuition?

If Lin Nuan’s birth parents were also Cen Mo’s birth parents…

He didn’t dare imagine it. His birth mother had gone crazy because he went missing, and his father had lost his job because of him.

He frowned and looked at Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an. “Did you find something, evidence?”

Cen Mo thought that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an found their way to him in their search. But if Fu Huai’an was checking on him and he didn’t sense it at all, then wasn’t Fu Huai’an too scary?

“No evidence!” Lin Nuan said. “I just feel that a Chinese kid that went missing in the US, one who remembered his surname was Lu and isn’t a child of Lu Xiangsi’s family, perhaps he might be the child my parents lost! If… you really are the child my birth parents lost, I feel that only by finding you will my parents be able to rest in peace!”

Song Yao, who was seated next to Cen Mo, was still in a daze. Was Lin Nuan saying Cen Mo was her older brother?

“No evidence, just based on your intuition?” Cen Mo handed the photo in his hands to Lin Nuan.

Although Cen Mo didn’t say he didn’t believe her, considering the fact that Lin Nuan was making this claim with no evidence on hand, one couldn’t help but think that Lin Nuan’s guess was a bold one.

It was such a huge world, and tens of thousands of children were abandoned or went missing every day. How could it be such a coincidence that she would bump into her biological older brother just like that?

Moreover, Lin Nuan met Lu Xiangsi in Iraq in the past, and she also rescued Tuan Tuan, which meant Lu Xiangsi owed her a debt of gratitude.

With all these coincidences summed up, Cen Mo didn’t dare believe it was true.

“So, are you willing to do a DNA test with me? I share the same father and mother with that missing older brother of mine. Although my parents are no longer around, we should have similar genes, so it shouldn’t be difficult to determine if we’re siblings,” Lin Nuan said.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Cen Mo’s brows tightly furrowed. Gazing at the photo of the letter in Lin Nuan’s hand, he somewhat… didn’t have the guts to do the DNA test.

Or perhaps since he just confirmed he wasn’t a child of the Lu family, with Lin Nuan suddenly saying he might be her older brother, Cen Mo feared he might be disappointed once more!

After finding out he wasn’t a blood-related child of the Lu family, Cen Mo wasn’t planning to seek his biological family. But Lin Nuan suddenly came to him and said all that…

Sensing Cen Mo’s hesitation, Lin Nuan said steadily…

“My mother was crazy her entire life. She sobered up right before she passed away and left this letter. I believe… she did so because she couldn’t let go of the child she lost. She wanted me to help her find her child, find my biological older brother! Be it my birth father or birth mother, they lived their entire lives in self-reproach, spending all they had to look for the missing child. When they were still alive… they weren’t able to accomplish their wish. Now that they’re no longer around, I still want to look for my older brother. I wish to bring him to my parents’ tombstones and tell them that they can rest in peace now because I found the child they lost!”

Lin Nuan’s words made Cen Mo’s eyes turn red.

From Ji Yun’s words, Cen Mo could sense that the reason Ji Yun had been mad her entire life was that she wasn’t able to come to terms with losing her son!

Because of their guilt towards their first child, they didn’t want to let their second child suffer with them. This was what led her father to switch Lin Nuan and Lin Ran’s identities…

Despite how tough their life was, they would still take out a portion of their money to look for their child, even if they knew the money might go to waste.

Cen Mo felt that if he was truly the child Lin Nuan’s parents lost, he should be blissful because he was missed dearly by his parents, and they had never given up on looking for him!

But Cen Mo also felt that if it were the case, his parents had led a pitiful life. After Lin Nuan was switched with Lin Ran, Lin Ran had lived in misery, and after the truth came to light, the insults Lin Nuan had to endure, plus his father jumping off a building!

If he was that boy, he was the cause of all those unfortunate happenings!

“Just a vial of blood from you to do the DNA test, okay?” Lin Nuan pleaded softly.

Cen Mo looked at Lin Nuan. This young lady had always been a stubborn one. This was the first time he heard Lin Nuan speak to him in a pleading tone.

After a long while, Cen Mo nodded. “Okay…”

Not anticipating?

Did Cen Mo really not want to look for his own family?

No…

He was just afraid he would be disappointed!

Afraid his own kin didn’t look for him after he went missing, afraid that it was his parents who abandoned him in the first place!

But now, seeing the letter Lin Nuan’s birth mother left behind, Cen Mo was also afraid!

He was afraid that he was indeed the child Lin Nuan’s birth mother lost…

He was afraid that because of his going missing, he caused his father to lose his lucrative job on Wall Street!

Afraid that because he went missing, his mother went crazy for so many years!

Afraid that because of him, a family that should have been blissful fell apart.

Those thoughts he had previously… afraid he would be abandoned by his family, afraid he wouldn’t be able to stop himself from hurting them, seemed particularly funny…

When the family physician came by to draw the blood, Song Yao gazed fixedly at Cen Mo. She rarely saw Cen Mo so quiet.

After a long while, Song Yao quietly grabbed Cen Mo’s hand. Only then did she find that a thin layer of sweat had formed over Cen Mo’s palms.

Song Yao didn’t let go. On the contrary, she held Cen Mo’s hand even more tightly, wanting to give him strength.

“Mr. Cen, the results will be out in three hours!” the family physician said to Cen Mo as he put the two vials of blood into his case.

Cen Mo pressed against the cotton swab on the inside of his elbow and nodded at the family physician.

Fu Huai’an also helped put a coat on Lin Nuan, who was holding the cotton swab to the inside of her elbow.

Saihand accompanied the family physician as he sent the two vials of blood to the lab.

In the huge Cen residence, there was only the sound of the grandfather clock ticking away. Lin Nuan remained silent, and Cen Mo all the more so.

“Actually, I’m very nervous…” Lin Nuan was the first to speak up.

Cen Mo looked towards Lin Nuan.

He heard Lin Nuan let out a low laugh. “In the past, I used to detest you. To be doing a DNA test with you suddenly and saying you could be my older brother, this is such a weird feeling!”

Cen Mo’s throat vibrated, a smile in his dark and deep eyes.

Fu Huai’an watched the light drizzle outside with one hand in his pocket. He was more or less sure… that Cen Mo was Lin Nuan’s older brother.

This was perhaps Lin Nuan’s father blessing them from up above, for his children to be able to find each other!

“I feel especially weird too…” Song Yao couldn’t resist joining in the conversation. “Nuan Nuan, Xiaonian, and I are the best of friends. All of a sudden, I’m about to become Nuan Nuan’s sister-in-law. This feeling… is too marvelous!”

Lin Nuan nodded.

“At the start, I didn’t like you either!” Cen Mo said.

Lin Nuan nodded, expressing her knowledge of this. The first time they met was at the Lins’ house. Lin Nuan could still vividly remember Cen Mo’s arrogant attitude and his impertinent remarks.
