Chapter 1718: Chapter 1718: The Truth Comes to Light 2
"I’ve seen him; he was the commanding officer of our division. When we were training, he often came to inspect us. I was young and naïve, couldn’t speak much, and the elder comrades always took care of me on his orders."
So, when he learned that he was Gu Dantou’s son, Shi Guantao’s emotions were a mix of complex feelings, indescribable.
Upon hearing this, Doctor Gu suddenly burst into tears, crying so hard as if the world had changed color, "But he never knew you were his son. Even if I take you to his grave, he would never know."
With a loud rumble, the thunder clapped outside.
Seeing the sky darkening outside, Feng Qingxue directed the children to go upstairs and close the windows, while she and Wang Cuilan hurried to bring in the clothes drying in the yard. Just as they brought the clothes inside, the rain came pouring down.
The wind howled, and the rain flew sideways, pounding on the doors and windows, producing faint sounds like those of metal striking stone.
Shi Guantao hurriedly consoled Doctor Gu, "The heavens are crying for you, please don’t cry anymore."
Lu Erxiong poked his dimpled cheek, crawled off the mat, and sat in front of the mother and son, "Is Uncle Shi Grandma Gu’s son? Just like I’m my mom’s good son."
"Yes, uncle is grandma’s son, her real son." Doctor Gu stopped crying but started hiccuping.
"Grandma should be happy, so why is she crying? My mom is always happy to see me."
Doctor Gu forced a smile, "I’m different from your mom. I lost my son and never treated him well for decades, so seeing him again only makes me sad."
"But you’ve found him now, just like how Grandma Rong found Uncle Jiaoyang and was very happy."
Doctor Gu was taken aback, "Yes, yes, you’re right, I should be happy, I should be happy."
Shi Guantao still insisted on investigating before drawing conclusions.
He was insistent, Doctor Gu gave a bitter smile, "It’s been almost forty years; the people involved are no longer here. How can we investigate? Anyway, I believe you are my son, and that’s enough."
Shi Guantao felt it wouldn’t convince others and might lead to rumors.
Feng Qingxue thought for a moment and interjected, "What is your blood type?"
"Type O." Shi Guantao answered without hesitation.
Feng Qingxue then asked Doctor Gu and Gu Dantou’s blood types, and Doctor Gu’s eyes lit up, "Type O, both Dantou and I are Type O. We first connected during the war when I donated my blood to him! He then made pig liver rice for me every day, and slowly, we got together. Xiaoxue, I remember you said that children born to parents who are both Type O can only be Type O, right?"
"Correct!" Without DNA paternity testing technology, blood type was the only way to guess familial relations, "If Gu Qing is Type O, then it would be hard to determine the truth, and I’d be powerless. But if he has a different blood type?"
As long as Gu Qing is any blood type other than Type O, it would confirm he’s not the son of Gu Dantou and Doctor Gu.
Doctor Gu suddenly stood up, "Gu Qing never got hurt needing blood or donated blood when he grew up by my side, so I don’t know his blood type. But people in the military undergo medical exams, officers are checked even more thoroughly, and if they get hurt and need blood, they can quickly get the right plasma without waiting for tests, as testing takes time. I’ll call Gu Tian and have him ask Gu Qing for his blood type; I’ll have him come back."
