Chapter 427: Chapter 427: Just Like Shaoze When He Was a Child

No matter if he’s real or fake, this child must not stay!

Lin Xinlan glanced at Rong Mingyan and smiled, "Grandfather, he is indeed Rong Shaoze’s child, as well as my child. The reason is very simple: I met Rong Shaoze five years ago, but I always kept the matter of his child a secret. If it weren’t for Rong Shaoze’s disappearance today, I wouldn’t have brought out the child. I’m not trying to compete with Rong Mingyan for the inheritance; I simply believe that everything belonging to Rong Shaoze should be left to his child. Besides, my child has every right and necessity to inherit his estate."

Only then did Rong’s mother realize that the child was also Lin Xinlan’s.

It was too coincidental; how could the child be both Shaoze’s and hers?!

She even suspected that a Bodhisattva had manifested to help her secretly.

When her gaze fell on Xiaocong’s face again, Rong’s mother found that the more she looked, the more he resembled Rong Shaoze.

She couldn’t help but laugh and mutter, "Dad, look, doesn’t he look exactly like Shaoze when he was little?"

She shouldn’t have mentioned it, but once she did, Rong Guangguo thought so too.

"Mmm, indeed, they’re exactly alike."

Rising to her feet with excitement, Rong’s mother said, "Wait for me, I’m going to get Shaoze’s childhood photos for you to see!"

She rushed upstairs with excitement, flipped through a treasured album, and ran down eagerly.

She distributed the photos of Rong Shaoze at the age of four to everyone present, laughing and talking incessantly.

"Everyone take a look and compare, aren’t they identical? It’s as if they were cast from the same mold."

Rong’s mother even kindly gave one to Rong Mingyan; the man took it lightly, his heart in fact blazing with rage, nearly exploding with suppression.

"Mingyan, take a look, aren’t they identical?" she asked with a deliberate smile.

Rong Mingyan glanced at it and responded coolly, "Second aunt, you can’t just determine he’s Shaoze’s child by looks alone. Don’t you find Lin Xinlan’s words puzzling?"

Rong’s mother blinked, indicating her confusion.

"She said she met Shaoze five years ago. But we all know Shaoze didn’t know her at all before. Moreover, if this child really is Shaoze’s, why didn’t she reveal the truth sooner? I don’t believe she’s not at all tempted by the Rong Family’s wealth."

Lin Xinlan smiled faintly, telling a partial truth, and modified the past events.

"You’re quite right, I’m not at all tempted by the Rong Family’s wealth. As for why Rong Shaoze does not recognize me, that’s because of a beautiful mistake one night five years ago. With his flirty nature, of course he wouldn’t remember me, but I remember him. However, I didn’t love him, didn’t want to be with him. Later, when I discovered I was pregnant, I decided to have the child, knowing that if Rong Shaoze learned of the child’s existence, he would definitely take him away, separating mother and son. I couldn’t bear to lose my child, so I kept it a secret and didn’t tell him."

Rong Mingyan’s lips curved into a cold smirk, his dark eyes a sheet of icy coldness.

"Even if what you’re saying is true, why then did you marry Shaoze later, and took the position of the Young Madam of the Rong Family, yet you still weren’t willing to tell him about the child’s existence? If you had spoken up at that time, you could have secured your position as the Young Madam even more firmly, and your child wouldn’t be separated from you either."

"It seems you didn’t hear me clearly. I said, I don’t love him; I didn’t want to be with him."
