Chapter 254 Xiao Kai and Grandpa Reunited

So, the three of them quickened their pace at the same time and hurried into Xiaokai's room.

When I looked up, what caught my eye were the two young men sitting at the table, playing checkers intently. The corners of their mouths were filled with smiles as bright and sweet as spring flowers, and they seemed to be having a great time!

Judging from this happy scene, the two of them are obviously immersed in the game of checkers.

"Xiao Xi, Xiao Kai, what are you playing? Why are you laughing so happily?" A gentle voice came.

"Sister Jiang, you're here! We are playing checkers." Xiao Kai replied with a bright smile on his face.

Jiang Yimo walked over to them, looked at the chess pieces on the board, and couldn't help but smile: "It looks interesting, do you want me to join you?"

Xiao Kai nodded excitedly: "Okay, okay! Sister Jiang, I am now an expert at playing checkers. You may not be able to beat me!"

At this moment, Jiang Yimo suddenly smiled mysteriously and said to Xiaokai: "Xiaokai, guess who I brought to visit you today?"

Hearing this, Xiao Kai immediately glanced at Jiang Yimo and the other three.

Of course he knew Jiang Yimo and Feng Wuhen, but he felt a little strange about the old man standing behind them.

However, when Xiao Kai's eyes met the old man, a strange feeling came over him.

Although the old man's eyes were cloudy, they seemed to reveal a hint of love and shrewdness. This unique look made Xiao Kai feel familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

He tried hard to recall, trying to find the corresponding face from the depths of his memory, but he had no clue for the moment.

But he always felt that he had seen the old man in front of him somewhere, but he could not remember who this old man was.

"Sister Jiang, who is this grandpa? Why do I feel he is so familiar?"

However, no matter how hard he tried, the memories in his mind were still vague, as if shrouded in a thick fog.

At this moment, Sister Jiang seemed to see what Xiaokai was thinking. She patted Xiaokai on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, think about it carefully. Sometimes, it takes some time for people's memories to awaken. Let's go say hello to the old man first."

After listening to Sister Jiang's words, Xiao Kai nodded and felt a little more relaxed.

So they walked towards the old man together, ready to greet him.

As they approached the old man, Xiao Kai suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.

He couldn't help but look at the old man's face carefully, trying to find a clue from that face full of traces of time.

"Xiao Kai, I'm your grandpa. Do you really not remember me at all?" The old man's voice was trembling and expectant.

Hearing this, Xiao Kai's heart suddenly tightened and a look of extreme surprise appeared on his face.

He stared at the strange old man in front of him with wide eyes in disbelief, muttering to himself: "Are you my grandpa?"

The old man nodded, his eyes full of love and affection, and said softly: "Yes, child, I am your grandfather Gu Yebei! And you are my beloved grandson Gu Yankai. Do you remember? The name Gu Yankai was given to you by your grandfather himself."

Gu Yebei stared at his grandson closely, a kind smile on his face.

However, soon after, his expression gradually became somewhat gloomy, as if he was recalling some sad past events.

He sighed softly and said slowly: "Alas... It's a pity. When I lost you, you were still so young, only a few years old. So it's understandable that you don't remember your grandfather now..."

At this point, the old man's eyes couldn't help but become slightly moist.

But Xiao Kai was still a little confused, standing there in a daze, as if he had not reacted at all to what was happening in front of him.

"You...you are really my grandfather?" Xiao Kai asked stutteringly, his voice full of disbelief and confusion.

Gu Yebei looked at Xiao Kai's cute and adorable appearance and couldn't help but chuckle. Then he said softly, "Child, take a look at yourself to see if you have a jade pendant with the word 'Kai' carved on it? That is the symbol of our Gu family's identity as a descendant."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Kai hurriedly reached out to his neck and took out the jade pendant hanging around his neck.

He took the jade pendant back from the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect and had been wearing it for a while, so he naturally knew that there was a word "Kai" engraved on the jade pendant.

But he still wanted to pick it up and take a closer look at the exquisite word "Kai" engraved on the jade pendant.

"This... is this really a jade pendant that only the descendants of our Gu family have?" Xiao Kai widened his eyes and looked at Gu Yebei. The shock in his heart could not be described in words.

Gu Yebei nodded, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes, and he slowly said: "That's right, child, this jade pendant is a token to prove your identity. You are a member of our Gu family."

After Xiao Kai learned about his life experience, he stood there frozen as if struck by lightning, his eyes empty and confused, as if the whole world was collapsing at this moment.

Time passed by minute by minute, but he remained motionless, like a sculpture.

Jiang Yimo saw everything and frowned slightly. She hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out her hand, gently pushed Xiaokai's back, and reminded him softly: "Xiaokai, what are you in a daze for? Hurry up and call grandpa."

Xiao Kai woke up as if from a dream, his body trembled slightly, and his lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something.

After a long while, he finally opened his mouth with difficulty, and said in a low and slow voice: "Grandpa...Grandpa."

When those two words came out of his mouth, it seemed as if they carried a heavy burden, and people couldn't help but be moved when they heard them.

Although Xiao Kai was the grandson of the original owner, when the old man heard Xiao Kai call out "Grandpa" with his own ears, an indescribable joy still surged in his heart.

"Xiao Kai~" the old man called softly, with a loving light in his eyes, "Your parents will arrive in the imperial city soon, and then we can be reunited as a family."

As Gu Yebei spoke, he suddenly raised his hand and gently rubbed Xiaokai's hair. The action was very doting.

Then he said in an extremely gentle voice: "Your parents miss you very much. Over the years, they have been trying their best to find you. They are almost going crazy."

Xiao Kai's eyes widened with disbelief. Before this, he had always thought that he was an orphan with no one to rely on, and never thought that his parents were still alive.
