Chapter 2324: Grandma was beautiful when she was young.

Under the sunlight, an extremely eye-catching necklace lay on Gong Jie’s collarbone, sparkling radiantly and attractively.

Youyou noticed the pendant.

He saw how his uncle was always wearing this necklace, never letting it leave his side. It must hold a special meaning to him now that he thought about it.

Therefore, he stealthily hiked onto his uncle’s side, and since the man was wearing sungla.s.ses, he did not know whether he was napping or wide awake. Therefore, he surrept.i.tiously lifted the pendant.

It seemed that the round pendant could be opened. Youyou opened it, realizing that it was a locket.

Both sides of the locker contained photographs. One photo had two kids snuggling with bright and beautiful smiles.

Youyou instantly recognized the children as his mommy and uncle when they were young.

Seeing their appearances, the two were probably seven years old when this picture was taken.

However, Gong Jie did not look as tall as he did now. He was actually shorter than Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ by half a head.

She was hugging the seven-year-old boy, posing her hand in a V-sign as she gave a brilliant smile with her pearly-white teeth showing between her rosy lips.

Meanwhile, the boy was a bit camera-shy and hid his head on his sister’s shoulder, looking at the camera with a bashful and reserved smile. His crystal clear eyes were bright and beautiful, and his beautiful, soft, black hair went a bit past his ears. Below his fringe was a docile appearance that was obedient like a lamb.

He wore a snowy-white s.h.i.+rt and a small bow tie. He looked refined and adorable as he had an arm wrapped around his sister’s waist, while his other hand formed a V-sign, too.

However, it was unknown if it was due to shyness, but the two fingers doing the V sign were curled, which made him look timid.

Uncle was clearly adorable when he was young! Youyou mumbled in his heart.

He actually looked similar to him in some ways.

Genes were truly fantastical things!

Why did he grow up to be the demon king, though? He was not only two-faced and evil but also insufferably arrogant.

Inside his head, he pictured little Gong Jie and devil king Gong Jie standing together. One was adorable and innocent like a lamb, while the other was a silver-haired demon wearing sungla.s.ses, with hands stuffed inside his pants’ pockets, his aura lethal and astonis.h.i.+ng.

It was as if they were two different people.

Youyou glanced at the other photograph.

In the picture was a young woman sitting on a flower bed, holding a moonflower in her hand as she smiled in a docile manner.

Her complexion was exceedingly similar to his mother. She looked gentle and beautiful, and her face seemed like a woman in a painting. Her eyes were like the mist on a faraway mountain, as gentle as flowing water.

Her black, straight hair was like a waterfall sans any decorations. It cascaded gently all the way to her lower back. There were a few strands that hung on her temples, which made her look even more alluring and charming.

He was amazed once again. Genes were truly fantastical things!

He immediately recognized that this lady was probably his mommy’s mother—his grandmother!

He could tell.

Grandma and mommy liked moonflowers.

Perhaps it was because grandma liked moonflowers that his mommy had always meticulously cared for them in their backyard.

Little Yichen took a peek from the side and widened his eyes in surprise.

“Is this when grandma was young?”

“Yeah!” He nodded his head, his eyes filled with warmth.

“Grandma was also a beauty when she was young,” commented his older brother.

“Of course! What nonsense!”

He flicked his twin’s forehead. “Otherwise, how could she give birth to someone pretty like mommy?”

It was no wonder that their uncle would always keep this pendant with him.
