"You heard her. The result will be ready in two to five business days. Give me your number and I will give you a call once they notify me." He demanded from the younger man.
"But what do I do now?" Zhang Jiren muttered after giving his father his mobile number. Should he go back to the Zhang family?
"Go back and meet your friends. Whether you are Zhang Jiren or Tang Lingjun, you have a life to live and to enjoy. We will figure out what to do next once the result is out, but for the meantime, resume living your normal life and don't let the Zhang family know that you met me." Tang Lixue said his piece.
He could sense that Zhang Jiren was really troubled by his unknown identity. The way he frowned reminded Tang Lixue of his Little Moyu whenever she was confused about something. If they were really twins, it would make sense why the two shared the same habit.
"And if I am your son? Do you plan to take revenge on the Zhang family?" Zhang Jiren asked him in return.
Tang Lixue only raised a brow. He and the Zhang family were like water and oil. They would never get along with each other.
"No, not yet. We will get there eventually. The first thing we need to do is to keep you and Moyu safe."
"Is that why you were eager to send her abroad to study? You don't want her to stay with you or your family any longer?"
The slight smile on Tang Lixue's face told Zhang Jiren that he was right. By sending Tang Moyu away from the Tang family, he would be able to protect her from further pain, compared to if she stayed with Zhang Wuying at the Tang Estate.
"It's for her sake. Not only would it keep the family away from her, but I want Moyu to learn how to stand on her own, I don't want her to rely on the Tang family." Tang Lixue said as they walked away from the lab.
"You should also do the same, Zhang Jiren, no matter if you are my son or not. So long that you two can fend for yourselves, it would be hard for the Tang family to abuse your weaknesses."
Tang Lixue had learned from his mistakes the hard way and he didn't want his children to commit the same mistake that he did.
If only he was a more capable person back then, he would be able to resist the pressure from the Tang family and refuse the Zhang family's influence at once. He wouldn't have to lose his family if one he had a backbone, if he was able to stand on his own feet to defend them.
Two days later, Tang Lixue and Zhang Jiren came back to the lab to see the results themselves. Both were nervous with anticipation to read it. When the lab manager released and passed the result to Tang Lixue, Tang Lixue felt like someone splashed him with ice cold water as he saw the results.
A 99.99% possibility of relationship between them, proving their connection as father and son.
Tang Lixue passed the paper to Zhang Jiren, who was looking at him with confusion and nervousness at the same time. He took a seat, trying to calm his nerves and his breathing, while Zhang Jiren froze on his spot upon reading the contents.
'Darling, after sixteen years of thinking he was dead… do you know, our son is still alive? He was taken from us by the Zhangs.' Tang Lixue covered his face with both hands as he wept in the empty hallway.
Zhang Jiren understood what his father was feeling right then. Both of them were denied and robbed of the chance to be together for so many years. If Zhang Xianzhe didn't take him away, he would have lived and grew up alongside his twin sister. He wouldn't have to grow up in a place where he was left unwanted.
The pain of losing Yan Qiuyu and his youngest child was excruciating for Tang Lixue. He thought that he'd lost everything, but here his son was, alive and grown up. He had somehow survived despite the fact that he had been kept away by the Zhang family.
"Dad…" Zhang Jiren called out to his father. For so many years, he thought that he was alone and nobody loved him, yet here he was, meeting his own father face to face.
No matter how the public perceived him, Tang Lixue was still human. Being reunited with his long lost son, how can a man like him not shed a few tears upon seeing Zhang Jiren?
Damn the Zhang family for ruining their lives! Tang Lixue swore that there would come a day when it would be the Zhang family's turn to crumble in the near future. Whether he did it himself, or his children would be the ones to execute their demise.
Tang Lixue gave his son a tight hug and patted Zhang Jiren's back. For so many years, this child of his suffered on his own, not aware that he had a family weeping for his absence. So many wasted years that should have been spent together.
Tang Lixue had forgotten how many times he'd shed tears for his beloved and the son he was never be able to raise.
"I should have delved deeper into the investigation. I should have at least suspected that you weren't the dead child I buried with your mother. I'm a failure father, not only to you, Lingjun but also to your sister. I'm so sorry. Until this day, I still haven't found who killed your mother."
"Dad. Don't say that." Zhang Jiren held onto his father tightly, allowing his tears to flow. "You didn't know that I am still alive. You weren't aware that I was kidnapped and taken away. As for the person responsible for mom's death, let's take it one step at a time, okay? Let's wait until Sister Moyu is safe."
