Marriage first, love later: Domineering husband comes gently

Chapter 258

Chu Haoxuan nodded, "Then go, don't be too tired from work, or I will go to find my brother-in-law myself."

"I know, I will pay attention," Shen Ningxuan said with a smile.

"En," Chu Haoxuan responded.

"What about your business? What's your plan next?" Shen Ningxuan asked.

Chu Haoxuan's expression suddenly changed, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and after waiting for a while, he said, "Honey, I'm applying for discharge."

"What?" Shen Ningxuan was still a little surprised when she heard this. Chu Haoxuan made such a decision without discussing it with herself at all. How could she not be surprised by such a sudden news?
Chu Haoxuan explained too much, but simply said, "Both Lu Yu and I have left the army."

Shen Ningxuan knew that Chu Haoxuan didn't want to explain, and she didn't want to force him, she believed that he had his own reasons for doing so.

"Oh," Shen Ningxuan responded softly, after thinking about it, she still asked, "Then, what about the family?"

Shen Ningxuan's words made Chu Haoxuan feel even more distressed. Chu Haoxuan knew what Shen Ningxuan was asking about. After the old man passed away, he had to take over more than a few things.

"Baby," Chu Haoxuan called out suddenly, but his voice was helpless.

"En," Shen Ningxuan responded.

"I'm very confused now," Chu Haoxuan said.

"What's wrong?" Shen Ningxuan looked at Chu Haoxuan seriously, what happened?How could he look like this? His tightly furrowed eyebrows made him feel uncomfortable just looking at them, which meant that he must have something on his mind, otherwise his expression wouldn't be like this, even when he spoke, he wasn't as firm as usual.

"I can't find the token," Chu Haoxuan said helplessly.

"Token?" Shen Ningxuan repeated, she didn't know much about the Chu family's affairs, and many things were guessed by herself. Hearing Chu Haoxuan say the word token, it must be very important. Otherwise Chu Haoxuan wouldn't be so worried.

Chu Haoxuan didn't intend to continue to hide from Shen Ningxuan any more. Some things should be known to this woman. I always wanted to protect this woman before, and I didn't want her to know too much. I was afraid that she would be hurt. But now, I feel that It is necessary to tell this woman that I believe that she is a smart woman, that she knows what to do, that she will take care of everything.

"When I was young, my grandfather once saved two people, one named Li Cong and the other named Jiang Hong. Both of them were gangsters. They were hunted down by their enemies that night. It was Grandpa who saved them," Chu Haoxuan said. Shen Ningxuan's voice clearly rang in Shen Ningxuan's ear, "Later, Li Cong and Jiang Hong followed Grandpa. Both of them were orphans. With Grandpa's relief, they have been living in the dark place of society."

"Grandpa didn't intend to let them become his subordinates. Grandpa once told me that he just looked at the two children with pity. At that time, Li Cong and Jiang Hong were only 17 years old. Grandpa wanted to save them and occasionally give them some financial help. But they lived in such a dark place since they were young, and they couldn't get out at all," Chu Haoxuan told a story that he had been reluctant to tell. Only he and the old man knew this story. If there were anyone else, it would be Li Cong and Jiang. The macro himself was gone.

"Until that time when I was a child," Chu Haoxuan opened up the original scar again, "That year, He Xuyan's parents had an accident. According to the military law, He Xuyan's parents must die, and He Xuyan, will It's going to be a hell of a life."

Shen Ningxuan listened quietly, what Chu Haoxuan said was what she wanted to know, what she desperately wanted to know, finally one day, Chu Haoxuan was willing to tell herself with an open heart, and on this day, at this point.

"At that time, my ignorant love had already begun. I didn't want to see He Xuyan get hurt, so I desperately wanted to protect her and let her live in this city safely," Chu Haoxuan said, with the corners of his eyes It's already wet, "I don't care about my grandpa's beating and scolding, and regardless of my grandpa's persuasion, I only want to protect He Xuyan in my heart."

"Then what happened next?" Shen Ningxuan couldn't wait to know what happened next.

"Grandpa finally didn't hold me back. He asked me to stay at home quietly, saying that he would help me protect He Xuyan from any harm," Chu Haoxuan said.

"Grandpa protected He Xuyan?" Shen Ningxuan asked.

"En," Chu Haoxuan responded, "Grandpa used all his contacts, and even asked Li Cong and Jiang Hong to help. Li Cong and Jiang Hong respected Grandpa's wishes, and they did as Grandpa ordered."

Shen Ningxuan didn't speak any more, but just listened quietly.

"Later, He Xuyan was saved, but in order to keep He Xuyan, grandpa paid too much. Even the An family was implicated, and the Chu family was almost found out," Chu Haoxuan recalled the events of the year , "Grandpa made a lot of sacrifices in order to keep our Chu family, money, contacts, grandpa protected me and the Chu family at all costs."

"Afterwards, He Xuyan was sent away according to Grandpa's order, and the Chu family also escaped the most dangerous time, but those things, whether it's in the business world, political circles, or even the military circles, are afraid of the Chu family. They were all afraid of grandpa's methods," Chu Haoxuan said, "at the same time, grandpa was also prepared for that matter, so grandpa bought Li Cong, Jiang Hong, and their subordinates with a lot of money. It can be said that Li Cong and Jiang Hong's people all obeyed Grandpa's orders."

As Shen Ningxuan listened, she was shocked. It turned out that the power of the Chu family was really unimaginable.

"But grandpa made some rules with them at the beginning," Chu Haoxuan told Shen Ningxuan this important information, and Chu Haoxuan told Shen Ningxuan all the details that even Lu Yu didn't know, "Grandpa, Li Cong and others There is a token in between, as long as they get this token, Li Cong and Jiang Hong will help the owner of the token to do things without violating their own interests, no matter who the owner of the token is."

"However, Li Cong and Jiang Hong also have the right to resist," Chu Haoxuan said, "If the owner of the token is not recognized by Li Cong and Jiang Hong, they can also resist, but the premise is that the token belongs to the Chu family. out of hand."

"That is to say, if someone from the Chu family is holding the token, Li Cong and Jiang Hong will not resist. If it is someone else, they have the right to resist," Shen Ningxuan said while guessing.

"Well, this was decided through discussion between Grandpa and them. Grandpa is afraid that the token will fall into the hands of others, because the power of Li Cong and Jiang Hong is beyond imagination, and the property behind them is also a huge amount," Chu Haoxuan said.

"They still have property?" Shen Ningxuan asked.

"Yes, they have always been businessmen," Chu Haoxuan said, "Actually, Grandpa made a rule back then, that is, to let Li Cong and Jiang Hong stay in their own place forever, unless it is absolutely necessary , Grandpa will never use their people, but once he does, there will be close contacts between the Chu family and them, and they will no longer stay quietly."

"But for so many years, grandpa has never been in touch with them, right?" Shen Ningxuan said, based on her own understanding, since she married into the Chu family, she has never found out that grandpa has been in contact with any unknown person, the old man in her memory He has always been kind, he is just enjoying his old age, the housekeeper is by his side, enjoying a quiet life, how could he have an affair with those people?

Chu Haoxuan shook his head and said, "Grandpa didn't get in touch, but I did."

"You?" Shen Ningxuan looked at Chu Haoxuan in surprise.

Chu Haoxuan met Shen Ningxuan's gaze, and said word by word, "That's Li Li."

Shen Ningxuan couldn't help shivering, Li Li, the person next to Chu Haoxuan, could it be him?

"Li Li is from Li Cong's side," Chu Haoxuan said. He recalled the scene when Shen Ningxuan left. The people sealed in the world, and that group, have been active since then, waiting for orders from the Chu family at any time. For so many years, if it wasn't for the old man's pressure, plus some of their own connections and influence, It is estimated that they have already surfaced.

Shen Ningxuan shook her head calmly, she didn't dare to imagine what would happen next.

Chu Haoxuan looked at Shen Ningxuan's appearance, touched Shen Ningxuan's hair, and said with a gentle tone, "Baby, this is why I have been unwilling to tell you, and I don't want you to know too many things. , the less you know, the better."

Shen Ningxuan didn't have time to worry about herself at this moment, she had already guessed the seriousness of the matter, and asked quickly, "Then Haoxuan, what are you going to do next? I can't find the token, will Li Cong and Jiang Hong resist? "

Hearing Shen Ningxuan's words, Chu Haoxuan shook his head, "Not yet, the Chu family is kind to them, they won't do this."

Chu Haoxuan paused for a moment, then continued, "However, it won't take too long. In fact, my plan is to find the token and discuss it with Li Cong and the others. In the future, they will no longer be used by the Chu family, and let them live independently. my own life."

Shen Ningxuan looked at Chu Haoxuan, not knowing what to say.

"Before, I lived in a world without feelings. I lacked the love of my parents since I was a child. Even if grandpa loved me again, I felt lonely until I met you." Chu Haoxuan looked at Shen Ningxuan seriously, "After marrying you , I realized the importance of family, what I want, and what I should cherish."

Chu Haoxuan continued, "Grandpa's departure, I also want to understand a lot, Li Cong and Jiang Hong, I have to come forward to solve it, talk to them peacefully, and I can be an acquainted friend in the future, but they no longer obey An order from the Chu family."

"I just want to live peacefully with you and my son," Chu Haoxuan said, "plus Lu Yu and Shiqi, let's live peacefully together."

Shen Ningxuan looked into Chu Haoxuan's eyes, and was so excited that she couldn't speak. It turned out that these were all in this man's heart. He always had his own place in his heart, and that place was always in the center.
