Chapter 1: Return
In Linzhou City, Jiangnan Province, two men came out of the airport.
One of the young men in their twenties had a morbid and pale complexion.
;Cough cough!; He couldn't help coughing when the wind blew, and covered his handkerchief with his mouth. After a moment, the handkerchief was covered with scarlet blood.
The other one is a middle-aged man with a tall figure as a mountain and full of iron blood.
Seeing this, he quickly asked worriedly: "How are you?"
Xiao Chen waved his hand and signaled that he was fine, then he asked: Qin Shan, is there any evidence that I asked you to investigate?
As he spoke, a cold light flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes.
Eight years ago, his master entrusted him to a family named Qiao to take care of him, and then he disappeared without a trace.
Five years ago, Xiao Chen joined the army. In just five years, he made great contributions and made outstanding achievements. No one in the entire Xia Kingdom could match it.
This time, I was seriously injured because of resisting foreign enemies, so I had time to return to my hometown to recuperate.
Over the years, Xiao Chen has been trying to find the whereabouts of his master.
However, during the three years in the Qiao family, Xiao Chen did not have such great energy. After five years in the army, he was busy fighting and killing enemies and could not do everything himself.
Now, taking advantage of the time of recovery, we can just look for the whereabouts of the master.
Qin Shan shook his head and said: "There are some mistakes, but there is no major progress. During this period, someone seemed to be hindering my investigation."
;Obstruct?;Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows, "If you dare to have an obstacle, let them get out. If you don't listen, then you will be killed without mercy!"
Xiao Chen must investigate this matter. Xiao Chen dares to stop him, so Xiao Chen doesn't mind using iron-blooded means.
;Yes!; Qin Shan's heart was shocked.
Although the young man in front of him looks a little weak, he looks like he is powerless.
But his ruthlessness, his wrists, and his strength. I am afraid that there may not be any other person in the entire Xia Kingdom.
However, he was still a little hesitant, but this place is Linzhou after all, and Linzhou belongs to...;
Before Qin Shan finished speaking, Xiao Chen said in a deep voice: "I know what you are worried about. However, he dares to come and care about my affairs unless he doesn't want to live anymore."
;But there is no hurry to do this. After all, after many years, take your time.; After a while, Xiao Chen's tone calmed down. Next, I will stay in Linzhou for a while, and you can find me a residence.;
;By the way, get another car, so it is convenient to drive by yourself wherever you go.;
;I'll go to Qiao's house to check it out, and after you finish the task, go to Qiao's house to pick me up.;
;Yes!;Qin Shan agreed and hurriedly retreated.
Xiao Chen took a taxi and headed to Qiao's house.
Xiao Chen's master once said that he was kind to the people of the Qiao family. Therefore, before leaving, he entrusted him to the Qiao family.
The people of the Qiao family were indeed good to him, especially Qiao's father, who even made an oral engagement for Xiao Chen and his only daughter Qiao Xue, and treated him as his own.
That girl Qiao Xue was very attached to Xiao Chen at the beginning. She followed Xiao Chen like a follower.
The two of them are childhood sweethearts. If Xiao Chen had not joined the army, I'm afraid the two of them would have really come together now.
There is equivalent to Xiao Chen's home.
Now that I have been away for five years and have returned to Linzhou again, Xiao Chen will of course go back to take a look.
Soon, the car stopped in front of an old community.
;When I turned around, I had to ask Qin Shan to help Uncle Qiao buy another house.; Xiao Chen shook his head.
With his current status and wealth to him is just a number. Since he has the ability, he naturally hopes to improve the lives of Uncle Qiao and others.
I bought some fruits from a nearby fruit stall, and Xiao Chen walked towards the community.
;Hey!;Just just walked into the community and came to the building in my memory, Xiao Chen was slightly surprised.
I saw a Mercedes-Benz parking downstairs.
Judging from the style, the value is not low, it should be one of a million levels.
Moreover, Xiao Chen could feel the breath of Qiao Xue and Qiao’s father and mother in the car, proving that they had been in this car.
Although he was injured, he still had this sense of perception.
;It seems that the living conditions of Uncle Qiao's family are better than I thought.; Xiao Chen smiled, walked upstairs and knocked on the door.
;Here!;Not long after, a voice came from the room.
As the footsteps were getting closer and closer, the door was opened, and a middle-aged man with slightly frosted temples was standing inside the door.
It is Qiao's father.
After five years of not seeing each other, Qiao's father has grown a lot older and even his hair has become a little white.
;Uncle Qiao.;When Xiao Chen smiled and shouted.
;You are... Xiao Chen?;Father Qiao looked at Xiao Chen, and after a while, he finally exclaimed, with a hint of joy on his face, "Good boy, I haven't seen you for five years, and you have grown up so big. But why are you so pale? Are you sick?"
;You, such a big man, don’t know how to take good care of yourself. Have you suffered in the army these years? Let your aunt cook some chicken soup for you to replenish it!;
After all, when Xiao Chen was in the Qiao family, he was only in junior high school. Five years have passed and after the war, the changes have changed so much, so Qiao's father did not recognize him immediately.
I recognized Xiao Chen at this moment and felt a sudden concern and blame.
Listening to his words, Xiao Chen also felt warm in his heart.
;It's me.; Xiao Chen nodded and asked:;Where is Aunt Qiao and Xiaoxue?;
;They...; Hearing Xiao Chen's words, a hint of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Qiao's father's face, and he wanted to speak but stopped.
Just as he was about to say something, a voice came from the room, "Old Qiao, who is it? Today is a happy day, neighbors, etc., let them come in and sit for a while!"
That was Aunt Qiao's voice.
;Xiao Chen, come in. ;Father Qiao can only let Xiao Chen enter the door.
Xiao Chen was a little strange. Qiao's father was reluctant to speak but stopped. Could it be that something happened to the Qiao family?
However, he didn't care. He could settle the big things as long as he was there.
And just now, my mother Qiao said that today is a happy day and it shouldn’t be a bad thing.
When I walked into the room and came to the living room, I saw a large round table inside.
In addition to Qiao's mother, there were also a large group of relatives from the Qiao family, all of whom sat around the round table for dinner.
Qiao Xue is also among them.
But at this moment, there was a young man wearing famous brands and golden glasses sitting beside Qiao Xue.
The young man Xiao Chen didn't know him, but everyone looked very polite to him and toasted him from time to time.
While picking up food for the young man, Qiao's mother said repeatedly: "Xiaoxue is ignorant, and you will take care of you in the future."
On the side, Qiao Xue's aunt hurriedly said: "Is it necessary to say that Jiang Shao's company is about to go public. If Xiaoxue gets married in the future, she will be a young lady. She is usually served by someone, and she will suffer losses?"
;That is, it is really a blessing for our Xiaoxue to fall in love with him.;
;Jiang Shao, I would like to honor you.; Qiao Xue's uncle hurriedly raised his glass to Jiang Yunhao.
A hint of pride flashed in Jiang Yunhao's eyes, but he still said humbly: "My aunt was joking. This condition in my family is nothing in the entire Linzhou, it is just an ordinary family."
;It's all a family, you don't have to call me Jiang Shao, just call me Yun Hao.
Seeing that he was humble and approachable, he did not look down on them. The relatives of the Qiao family were even more satisfied.
Xiao Chen suddenly realized that no wonder that Father Qiao had just stopped talking but turned out to be because of this.
Calculate the time, Qiao Xue is now twenty-one years old, and it is indeed time to have a boyfriend.
When Qiao's father saw this scene, he remembered the fact that he had made an oral engagement for Xiao Chen and Qiao Xue, and his face became more and more embarrassing.
He immediately coughed and said: "Look, everyone, who is back!"
After hearing Qiao's father's words, everyone finally noticed Xiao Chen who had just walked in. For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Chen.
;Xiao Chen!;Madam Qiao exclaimed, obviously very surprised, "Why are you back?"
When Qiao Xue saw Xiao Chen, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes. Then, as if out of instinct, she moved her seat to the side and widened the distance between her and Jiang Yunhao.
Jiang Yunhao naturally noticed this, and his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes fell on Xiao Chen with interest.
