Unexpected ending

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene instantly quieted down.

Many people nearby looked over curiously.

And when they looked, they completely erupted.

"My goodness, it really is identical, who are you?"

"Could it be that Lin Yuan drew him based on his appearance?"

"Quick! Let him go in and see what’s going on."

Fang Tian was bewildered.

He was pushed inside by the crowd with a blank expression.

The moment he saw Lin Yuan and the middle-aged woman, he froze on the spot.

He realized these people weren't appreciating his painting, which made him feel a bit awkward.

But just as he inadvertently glanced at the drawing board in the woman's hand, his mind instantly went blank, and his whole body trembled.

He gasped in disbelief, "This... isn't this me?"

Hearing this, the woman looked up at Fang Tian, her expression startled, then looked at the painting again, and couldn't help but gasp, freezing in place.

Lin Yuan also widened his mouth in surprise.

Honestly, he had never seen this person before.

But the portrait in his painting was indeed too similar to this person; if not one hundred percent, the similarity was at least ninety percent!

This was too much of a coincidence, wasn't it?

After the middle-aged woman reacted, she excitedly stood up, walked tremblingly towards Fang Tian, and asked with anticipation and longing in her eyes, "Xiao Hu, what's your name?"

Fang Tian was a bit confused by this scene and replied blankly, "My name is Fang Tian!"

"Fang Tian!" The woman muttered to herself, deep in thought for a few seconds, then looked up again and asked, "Let me ask you, do you have parents?"

She spoke this sentence almost biting off each word, one by one.

Because she was afraid the answer wouldn't be what she wanted.

As a result, she was disappointed; Fang Tian nodded expressionlessly, "I have parents, and they are both still alive."

"Oh, I see." Hearing this, the middle-aged woman looked as if all her energy had been drained, and she stumbled, almost falling.

Fortunately, Huang Jiao, who was by her side, had been watching her and quickly helped her up, advising, "Big sister... don't be sad yet. Perhaps he was adopted, after all, he was only three years old when he got lost."

"Yes, yes, yes!!!" The woman instantly saw hope, and her eyes brightened.

She quickly steadied herself and looked at Fang Tian again, asking, "Are your parents your biological parents?"

Fang Tian frowned, a little displeased.

Who asks questions like that?

If it weren't for the woman's earlier display, he would have wanted to curse.

Out of politeness, he still replied indifferently, "Otherwise what!"

At this, the woman could no longer withstand the blow and completely slumped down, her face ashen.

Lin Yuan also felt considerable doubt upon seeing this.

Could there really be such a coincidence in the world?

Judging from the child Fang Tian drew, he shouldn't have been very happy.

Could there be other reasons involved?

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan stood up and asked with a smile, "Did you draw this painting of the child?"

Fang Tian heard about painting and immediately changed, smiling and nodding, "Yes!"

"Hmm, it's very well drawn!" Lin Yuan asked again, "Can you tell me your state of mind when you painted this?"

"Of course!"

Fang Tian replied enthusiastically, "Actually... I wasn't very happy when I was little."

"My parents originally loved me very much and were especially good to me."

"But ever since my younger brother was born, everything changed."

"All their love went to my brother, and I instantly felt like an outsider."

"So during that time, I wanted to run away from home many times. I couldn't understand why my parents were so biased towards my brother, and even now, I still haven't figured out why."

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene instantly erupted in an uproar.

Fang Tian looked at everyone, confused, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Yuan also trembled, asking with a serious expression, "You just said that after your younger brother was born, your parents weren't as good to you as before, right?"

"Right!"

"Then have you ever thought about why?"

Fang Tian pondered for two seconds, then shook his head, "They always told me since I was little that I was the older brother and should give way to my younger brother. Perhaps that's the reason?"

Lin Yuan smiled faintly, "What you said is somewhat possible, but don't forget, you're also a boy."

"Since ancient times, I've only heard of favoring boys over girls, but where have you heard of favoring a younger brother over an older brother? Haven't you thought about it more deeply?"

"This..." Fang Tian also faintly felt a hint of something amiss at this moment, frowning tightly as he looked at Lin Yuan and asked, "What do you mean? Are you trying to say I'm not their biological child? That's impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible!" Lin Yuan spread his hands, "You saw the painting I just drew, right? That was me deducing the adult appearance of the big sister's lost child based on her photo."

"You also think you two look very alike, right? Is there really such a coincidence in the world? Perhaps you can call your parents and ask them."

"Uh..." Fang Tian hesitated; he didn't have the courage.

But looking at the woman on the ground, the painting on the drawing board, and recalling his childhood memories, a seed seemed to be planted in his heart.

He knew that this seed had taken root deeply, and if he didn't resolve it, it would surely grow larger and larger.

Thinking of this, he steeled his heart, pulled out his phone, and dialed his mother's number.

Soon, the call was connected.

Fang Tian said with a smile, "Hello! Mom, can I ask you something?"

"What is it, son!"

"Uh, it's just, uh... I want to know about my origins."

At this moment, everyone unconsciously held their breath.

The other end of the phone was silent for more than ten seconds, with no one speaking.

"Hello! Mom?" Fang Tian's heart skipped a beat, and he asked again.

After a long while, a sigh finally came from the other end of the phone.

"Sigh~~ You know?"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Fang Tian was stunned, his mind reeled, and his breathing became incredibly difficult, as if someone had heavily hammered his chest.

The onlookers present also had expressions of disbelief.

That sigh contained too many words.

Even a fool could understand what it meant.

Unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, it ended up like this.

After the sigh from the other end of the phone, seeing that Fang Tian hadn't spoken, the tone became a little anxious, "Son? What's wrong?"

"First, tell Mom, how did you find out about your origins?"

After Fang Tian recovered, he replied with a bitter smile, "Mom, I finally understand why you and Dad were biased towards my younger brother. I understand, now I understand everything!! So, I was never your son from the beginning, right?"

Hearing her son's tearful cry of grievance, the mother quickly explained, "No, son, it's not what you think."

"I admit we were a bit biased towards your younger brother, but you are our biological son."

"I originally planned to keep this matter to myself and never tell you for my whole life."

"But I still didn't expect that paper can't cover fire."

"That's right, you are indeed not our biological son."

"That year, your father and I went out of town for business and decided to visit the county town. We found you by the roadside. I originally wanted to send you home, but you were too young and couldn't remember where home was."

"We waited for a long time but didn't find your parents, so we could only send you to the Police Station. But at that time, the Police Station didn't have a Sky Net system, and all the Police Station's information wasn't interconnected, so we couldn't find your parents at all."
