The Wealthy Son-in-law Is Back

3"Twelve years ago, I was chased out of the Dugu family. It was freezing cold, and I ended up in the Cloud City. I was wearing thin and tattered clothes. I thought I would die in this strange city."    

    

"But I didn't die. After that, I met the most important person in my life."    

    

Xiao Tian looked at Chen Mengyao and smiled. "At that time, I was in despair and even lost the hope of living. A little girl handed me the only mantou in her hand."    

    

"She said to me, Little brother, eat quickly. Don't starve... "    

    

" From that moment on, I swear that I will protect her for the rest of my life... "    

    

Xiao Tian's words were like a key, opening Chen Mengyao's sealed memories.    

    

That day after school, she saw a big boy in ragged clothes on the side of the street. It was freezing cold. He wore very thin clothes and did not even wear shoes.    

    

The teacher said that when he saw other people in trouble, he had to do his best to help them.    

    

At that time, she was still young and didn't have money. She took out the only dollar she had and sold two steamed buns.    

    

That big brother ate very happily, and she was also very happy.    

    

When the big brother finished eating, she even let him wait for her here. She went back to help him get his clothes and shoes.    

    

But when she brought her father's clothes and shoes, the big brother was nowhere to be seen.    

    

At that time, she was still lost for a long time.    

    

Wait... Chen Mengyao finally reacted and looked at Xiao Tian in disbelief, "You... you... You are that big brother from back then?"    

    

Xiao Tian nodded, "Yes, I'm very sorry, I only told you now!"    

    

Chen Mengyao was in a mess.    

    

"Then why did you leave without saying goodbye?"    

    

"That year, I met the second benefactor in my life, my foster father!"    

    

Xiao Tian did not reveal too much. "He took me away, and then I joined the army!"    

    

"What about the deserters?"    

    

Xiao Tian touched his nose. "You can understand that I am carrying out a special mission."    

    

"That is to say, you are not a deserter?"    

    

"Yes!"    

    

Xiao Tian nodded. He was War God of Northgard. How could he be a deserter?    

    

"Then why didn't you tell me at the beginning?" Chen Mengyao stared at Xiao Tian.    

    

"I think you might not be able to accept it."    

    

Xiao Tian said, "I originally wanted to tell you everything after I completed the mission."    

    

"You are a bastard!"    

    

Chen Mengyao could not hold it in anymore. Her tears fell like pearls that had been cut off.    

    

"I am sorry, my wife. It is all my fault!"    

    

When Chen Mengyao cried, Xiao Tian panicked. He walked over and hugged her tightly.    

    

He kissed her again and again to dry her tears.    

    

He apologized again and again.    

    

Chen Mengyao bit Xiao Tian's arm. Xiao Tian did not dare to use force, for fear of collapsing on her.    

    

She was also furious. Her husband had actually met her a long time ago.    

    

But after she bit him, Chen Mengyao regretted it.    

    

She recalled every single detail of the past few days. Xiao Tian had suffered many grievances for her, and had helped her block up so many storms. He had never mentioned anything to her.    

    

No matter how others ridiculed him or mocked him, he stood firmly behind her and silently protected her.    

    

"Why didn't you dodge?"    

    

"If I could make it easy for you, not to mention one bite, even if it was a hundred bites, I would be willing to do it."    

    

Xiao Tian said, "Wife, all these years, the reason why I was able to persist is all because of you."    

    

He was almost unable to hold on many times. It was Chen Mengyao who gave him the motivation and belief to live. Without Chen Mengyao, there would not be Xiao Tian today.    

    

Chen Mengyao could feel Xiao Tian's sincerity. She suddenly thought of the criss-crossing scars on Xiao Tian's body.    

    

It turned out that she had become Xiao Tian's belief a long time ago.    

    

"Can you tell me what happened all these years?"    

    

Chen Mengyao bit her lips and looked at Xiao Tian with anticipation.    

    

"You want to hear it?"    

    

"I want to hear it!"    

    

Speaking of which, she felt ashamed. The two of them had been married for so long, and she knew nothing about Xiao Tian's past. This was partly due to Xiao Tian deliberately hiding it from her, but more because of her dereliction of duty.    

    

If she could put more energy and attention on Xiao Tian, instead of thinking about how to develop the company and how to prove herself.    

    

Xiao Tian locked the door of the negotiation room. He held Chen Mengyao and told her the story of what had happened in the military camp all these years.    

    

He omitted some bloody and dangerous parts, including his status and identity, but he did not tell her.    

    

He was tired of that kind of life of killing. If it was not for his father and the country, he would have retired long ago.    

    

Chen Mengyao just quietly listened to Xiao Tian talk about the life of the army.    

    

"Hubby, can you tell me about the Dugu family?"    

    

Chen Mengyao said.    

    

"You want to know?"    

    

"Yes!"    

    

Chen Mengyao nodded her head, "Just now that old man took a photo. The person in the photo is that old woman... Granny, right?"    

    

She shyly called out this name.    

    

"Yes, that's my mother!"    

    

Xiao Tian said, "Her name is Xiao Hong!"
