Chapter 380: Chapter 380 Last Words

Xiahou Yi gave his little granddaughter a set of very beautiful jade jewelry.

At a glance, the jewelry was clearly extraordinary, with its luster as if about to drip, and the incredible craftsmanship of its carving. Even an outsider like her could tell, this must have been something from the imperial palace of the past.

"Great General, what is this...?"

"You take good care of it for her, so that when she gets married, it can serve as her dowry,"

the old man said with a smile as he sat there.

Yin Hehe: "..."

Later, it was the two little boys who stepped forward, and when the old man saw the gift they brought him, which was actually a model of a warship, he rubbed their little heads and smiled happily.

"Do you boys like these?"

"Yes!" Cen Bao, always lively, immediately responded.

"My brother has many, many models like this, with fighter jets, warships, and all kinds of tanks."

He rattled off his brother’s collection as if he were presenting treasures.

This caused Xi Bao to blush with embarrassment beside him.

Xiahou Yi’s gaze then turned to this eldest grandson and he asked, "So, what do you want to do in the future? Do you want to become a Great General?"

Xi Bao lifted his head: "No, I just want to protect people and defeat the bad guys!"

This response was really quite something.

Yin Hehe heard it and wanted to pull her son to her side. Instead, Xiahou Yi, upon hearing it, was extremely pleased.

"Very good, very good, I like a child with such spirit. You will certainly be able to become a towering hero in the future!"

He touched the boy’s face again and then had the butler behind him hand over a small golden key.

"What’s this?"

Yin Hehe, seeing this, immediately asked.

Fearing the old man would bestow upon her son another gift so significant that she couldn’t possibly accept it.

Fortunately, Xiahou Yi casually mentioned, "It’s just a keepsake. This is the key to a tank I used to drive during combat. If this child gets into a military academy in the future, he can use this key to drive that tank away."

"..."

Before Yin Hehe could regain her composure, Xi Bao had already reached out and taken the key.

Yin Hehe saw this and just let it be.

But Sheng Siyuan, who saw this scene, had his pupils shrink.

He had heard the stories about the old man and the tank. In the military, that tank was actually tantamount to his identity.

Thus, one could imagine what it meant for him to give this key to the child.

Sheng Siyuan’s handsome face grew somber.

Finally, it was Cen Bao’s turn. Naturally lively and cheerful, Cen Bao didn’t prepare any special gift for the old gentleman, but he could tell the old man was in pain right now.

So, he climbed up and personally rubbed the spot over the old man’s heart with his little hand.

"Old Grandpa, I don’t have anything to give you, I just want you to not hurt here anymore,"

"..."

In an instant, Xiahou Yi sitting there felt a jolt in his heart. In just a few seconds, despite having held on for so long, he couldn’t hold back anymore and bent over to tightly hug the little guy to his chest.

"Thank you~~," he said with a choked voice, while his cloudy old eyes were already brimming with tears.

"Grandpa doesn’t hurt anymore. Seeing you three, everything is better!"

He looked at the little guy with a happiness and contentment on his face that he had never known before.

At that moment, he probably also realized why his son had always been reluctant to follow him to the capital. It turned out that his current life was the happiest in the world.

Xiahou Yi took off the jade thumb ring he wore on his thumb and gave it to his little grandson!

This jade thumb ring had never been taken off before.

Yin Hehe was startled again!

She wanted to refuse on her son’s behalf, but then the man sitting beside her, who had been silent the whole time, looked at her.

"Hehe, why don’t you take them out for a bit?"

"...Okay." The intelligent Yin Hehe immediately grasped the man’s intention.

Soon after, she led the children out.

"What are you planning to do? A last will and testament thing?"

As soon as Yin Hehe had left, the man stared at the old man in front of him and was quite rude, so much so that it turned the ever-present butler’s face pale.

"Young master, you..."

"It’s alright, let him speak," Xiahou Yi stopped him with a gesture of his hand.

Thus, the already angered man continued to rant, "Do you think that by pulling this stunt with me, I’ll compromise? I’m telling you, it’s never going to happen!"

Xiahou Yi smiled...

"You’re mistaken, I was really just happy to see the three of them. And I had prepared those gifts long ago; you don’t need to overthink it."

"..."

"By the way, if you’re not busy, you can take them back with you."

All of a sudden, the old man began showing them out.

The man’s expression turned even darker and more unsightly, making the butler stamp his feet in anxiety.

"Great General, why are you doing this?"

"Fine, I’m leaving!"

Before the butler could finish, the man in front of him stood up with a livid face and, not long after, stormed out, pushing his chair behind him.

This was quite the scene...

And so, Yin Hehe, who had thought she could stay longer at this place, was angrily taken back by the man.

They didn’t even have a proper meal.

Such temper...

Yin Hehe had no choice. After returning to Jiangbei, she dared not mention anything about the old man in front of this man.

Three months later, Jiangbei had entered the height of summer.

Regarding their trip to Chongzhou in the spring of March, after three months, they had almost forgotten about it.

Until today at noon, Dr. Qin from the Drug Rehabilitation Center, who had not been in contact for a long time, made a phone call.

"Xiaoyin, do you know someone named Xiahou Shaojie?"

"Ah?"

Yin Hehe couldn’t recall.

Xiahou Shaojie? Who was that?

"What’s wrong, Dr. Qin? Why are you suddenly asking about this person?" she still asked.

Dr. Qin then said with a frown over the phone, "He’s been arrested and just brought to our Drug Rehabilitation Center. He’s claiming to be your nephew specifically by name."

"..."

Yin Hehe’s CPU completely burned out.

What nephew? Where did she get such a big nephew who also happened to be a drug user?

Yin Hehe flatly denied it.

"Dr. Qin, I don’t know him, just follow the rules of your Drug Rehabilitation Center, okay?"

After she finished speaking, she was about to hang up the phone.

But upon hearing this, Dr. Qin immediately responded on the phone, "The main issue is he’s now suspected of FD and if he doesn’t have the money for a lawyer, he might be sentenced to death."

"..."

"So, he was wondering if you could, considering your past relationship as family, fight this lawsuit for him. According to the information we have at the Drug Rehabilitation Center, he indeed has never committed FD; someone is framing him!"

Dr. Qin added one last sentence on the phone.

Yin Hehe fell silent...
