The moment they saw the photo of that year, Gu Yicheng and Mo Sui were already convinced of the result.
“I think so.” Gu Yicheng gave her a firm answer.
Even though the answer was already planted in her heart, Mo Sui still breathed a sigh of relief because of his words.
“I’ll call Officer Fang. You take the child and wait for me in the car.” Gu Yicheng said.
Mo Sui took the car keys and took An An.
The little dumpling shook her head and waved her hands vigorously: “An An walks by herself!”
“Why?” Mo Sui asked softly.
The child’s face turned red: “An An is too fat.” (T/N: Oh~ Our An An broke my sad emotion.)
Mo Sui wanted to laugh, but when the corners of her lips raised, her eyes began to heat up again.
She hugged An An tightly in her arms, her voice choked with sobs: “Who said that? Our An An is not fat. Mom just likes to hold you.”
“But An An’s belly is so round.” The little dumpling muttered softly.
“Is it as round as a watermelon?” Mo Sui smiled and used a hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
“Mom, pat my watermelon belly!” An An showed a soft smile.
Mo Sui gently patted the child’s belly and asked, “How much is a pound of watermelon?”
“One yuan a pound!” An An raised a finger.
“Why is it so cheap?” Mo Sui continued.
An An had no idea of the price. After careful thinking, she came up with the biggest number she knew: “One hundred yuan?”
The little girl was still not sure. After saying the one hundred yuan, she shyly hid in her mother’s arms and buried her little face: “Is one hundred yuan too much?”
But Mo Sui, who was holding her, shook his head gently: “Our fat watermelon will not be sold no matter how much money it costs.”
When the Fat Watermelon heard this, she was more satisfied and smiled embarrassedly.

Gu Yicheng contacted Officer Fang who was in charge of their case.
Officer Fang said that even if they had the answer in their hearts, they still had to do a paternity test first according to the procedure.
First, after confirming it, the police could investigate from the orphanage where An An grew up.
Although Mo Yaqin was already a person with no civil capacity, how were the death certificate and cremation certificate issued at that time? Did the relevant personnel commit dereliction of duty or forgery of documents?
Secondly, the adoption procedures at the orphanage had not been completed. The Adoption Law stipulated that couples under the age of 30 were not allowed to adopt children.
But if they were the biological parents of the child, they did not need to go through the relevant adoption procedures.
Until now, Gu Yicheng still couldn’t believe what happened in just a few minutes, and his mind was almost in chaos.
At this time, Officer Fang pointed him in the direction. He suddenly realized that the 60-day public notice period proposed by Dean Wang was about to pass halfway, but he had not yet found a reasonable and legal means to register the child’s household registration under their name.
He accepted Officer Fang’s suggestion, and the family of three drove to the nearest appraisal agency.
“Don’t go to the hospital?” Mo Sui asked.
“Not all hospitals can do this—” Gu Yicheng held back what he had not yet finished saying and changed his words.
“To do this kind of identification, it must be done in a hospital that has a DNA laboratory and has obtained relevant qualifications. Assistant Fang checked and found that the hospital that could do the identification was quite far away. It is the same if we go to a regular appraisal agency.”
