Chapter 1688: A Huge Surprise
“He also told me to give you this. He said that you’ll definitely recognize it,” Yin Feng said as he handed a photo to Huo Yunshen.
It was a photo of half a jade. Huo Yunshen instantly recognized it as the elders gave two jades to the children when they were born. The two jades could be combined into one.
Ever since Huo Yunshen lost Little Apple, he kept the piece that belonged to Little Grape in secret.
Huo Yunshen quickly opened his drawer and took out a red box. He opened it and in it lay the half that belonged to Little Grape.
The engravings on the photo matched the jade that Huo Yunshen had.
It could only mean one thing.
The person who had the photo must’ve met Little Apple.
And that Little Apple was still alive.
Tears filled Huo Yunshen’s eyes as he finally had news about his long lost son three years later.
“Bring me to him!” Huo Yunshen ordered excitedly.
Huo Yunshen and Yin Feng quickly came to the front door. He could see a man standing by the stairs.
The man stood there quietly with a cane by his side.
The man’s back was so familiar that Huo Yunshen could instantly recognize him.
It was Mo Yutian.
He was still alive.
Huo Yunshen recalled how he had jumped down the cliff just to save Little Apple.
Huo Yunshen walked towards Mo Yutian, his feet getting heavier with every step. Complicated feelings filled his heart.
He remembered all the wars he’d had with Mo Yutian and then thought of how the man changed himself.
Even though Huo Yunshen hated him, he was thankful for what he did in the end.
Before Huo Yunshen could even open his mouth, tears were rolling down his face. He was happy, happy that he could meet with someone he thought he’d lost, and that he was about to meet his son too.
He wondered what the little boy looked like now.
Yin Feng was the one who broke the silence.
“Sir, our king is here,” Yin Feng told Mo Yutian.
Mo Yutian slowly turned around and their eyes finally met. They remained silent for quite some time, just staring at each other.
Mo Yutian then slowly took off his sunglasses and said, “I’m back, big bro.”
One sentence from Mo Yutian was enough for Huo Yunshen to forgive him for all that he’d done.
“You’re still alive…”
“Yes, I’m not dead,” Mo Yutian said as he slowly walked up the stairs. “I was lucky and I lived on, just so that I could come back and tell you that Little Apple is still alive and I have not failed you.”
Mo Yutian had been walking too much and his legs hurt him. Just as he was about to reach Huo Yunshen, his legs gave in and he fell.
Huo Yunshen quickly caught Mo Yutian and helped him back to his feet.
“As long as you’re back, everything is fine…” Huo Yunshen cried and brought Mo Yutian into the palace. “How did you survive for the past three years?”
“By doing everything I could.”
Mo Yutian told Huo Yunshen everything, about how he was swept away by hidden currents and carried to a country called the Star Kingdom.
