Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door

Chapter 366 A Plan to Catch the Adulterer (4)

The fully armed men behind him pointed their guns at Huang Shikun, leaving Huang Shikun dumbfounded.

"Brother-in-law, what do you mean by this?"

Major General Zhan was also at a loss for words. These bodyguards, who outwardly obeyed him, were actually just covering for Chi Moqing. His mission this time was to wipe out the Zha Sha organization, and it just so happened that Leng Yan, the core member of the Zha Sha organization, was targeting Chi Moqing and his wife. Therefore, these bodyguards from Zhongnanhai were temporarily under his command.

However, orders had also been issued from above: if anything threatened Chi Moqing's personal safety, these people didn't need to listen to him at all; they could open fire immediately. Just now, before he had even given the order, these people had already stormed in. If necessary, let alone Huang Shikun, he could act first and report later, even if it were him.

Major General Zhan slapped him across the face: "What are you doing here! Apologize to President Chi right now!"

"Sister, brother-in-law..." Huang Shikun was confused, but seeing so many people pointing their guns at him, he was already sweating profusely.

The police captain was also puzzled. General Zhan was more powerful than him, yet he didn't dare to speak casually. He was even more confused and dared not speak at all.

When Major General Zhan saw that Chi Moqing's gun was pointed at Huang Shikun, he knew that this guy was formidable. Even if Chi Moqing shot him dead, he would deserve to die in vain. So he quickly said, "President Chi, my brother-in-law is ignorant. Please be magnanimous and don't take it to heart."

Huang Shikun was dumbfounded: "Brother-in-law, are you crazy? This man will soon be a prisoner, and you still..."

With a resounding slap, Major General Zhan immediately delivered another slap to his face. "Shut up!"

Seeing Huang Shikun's defiant look, Chi Moqing sneered, "I think you're tired of living. Should I send you on your way early?"

"You dare? You surnamed Chi, you've got some nerve!" Even though he was scared, Huang Shikun still shouted defiantly.

"Want to give it a try?" Chi Moqing raised the gun in his hand, startling Huang Shikun. "What are you all standing there for? He's going to kill me, arrest him..."

Major General Zhan wished he could shoot his blind brother-in-law dead and kick him to his knees. He then turned to Chi Moqing and said ingratiatingly, "President Chi, you are a magnanimous person. Please don't take him to heart. For the sake of our years of friendship, please spare this little brat."

Chi Moqing, with Yan Zuozuo in his arms, looked down at Huang Shikun and said, "With a military leader backing you up, your aura is definitely different. It seems I still have to cater to Assistant Huang, otherwise, my life will be in danger."

Major General Zhan wiped his sweat from his brow and said, "It was my fault. It's all thanks to my guidance. Please forgive me, President Chi."

"With power and influence, I, Chi, cannot afford to offend you." Chi Moqing spoke expressionlessly, his gaze towards Yan Zuozuo unusually gentle. "Are you injured?"

Yan Zuozuo shook her head: "I'm fine."

Chi Moqing glanced at Huang Shikun, then at General Zhan, and said, "I am just a businessman. I am honored to be treated with such great respect today." After saying that, he put his arm around Yan Zuozuo and left.

Major General Zhan was so frightened that he was soaked in sweat. Only when the bodyguards pushed him out did he feel a little relieved. He was terrified.

"Damn it! What the hell are you acting so arrogantly for? What kind of trash are you?!" Huang Shikun cursed. He was someone above him, and these bastards dared to treat him like this. He would make them regret it!

Just as he was venting his anger, Major General Zhan walked in, kicked everyone out of the office, slammed the door shut, and without a second thought, pinned Huang Shikun to the ground and gave him a brutal beating, making Huang Shikun cry out in pain. "You little brat, you really made me proud. Let's see who can protect you this time!"

Huang Shikun felt wronged after being beaten: "Brother-in-law, are you kidding me? I'm your brother-in-law, how can you side with an outsider?"

"If I hadn't sided with outsiders, you wouldn't even be alive today! Who do you think you are, daring to point a gun at Chi Moqing's head? You're fucking tired of living!"

Huang Shikun was taken aback. He was just a prisoner. Why was his brother-in-law so afraid of him?

He curled his lip in dissatisfaction: "I'll send him in soon. He's a useless piece of trash. Why are you so angry with me?"

"Shut the hell up!" Major General Zhan gave the kid another beating. If he had known this kid was so hopeless, he shouldn't have let him get involved in this. Now look what's happened, he's really messed things up. If the higher-ups investigate, even he, as a major general, will be in trouble. "Did you see those bodyguards just now? They were sent by Zhongnanhai to protect Chi Moqing! You actually dared to point a gun at his head, you're committing treason!"

Huang Shikun's eyes widened. A bodyguard sent from Zhongnanhai—just how important must this man be?!

He just...

Huang Shikun's mind went blank for a moment, and with a thud, he fainted.

Inside the villa, Chi Moqing checked Yan Zuo from head to toe, left to right, until he was sure she was really alright before he felt relieved. "I won't let Huang Shikun get away with this!"

Yan Zuozuo looked at Chi Moqing strangely, her brows furrowed. "Honey, those bodyguards came in with that leader, right? But they seem to listen to you more." Moreover, some of them looked familiar; they must be the people who saved her last time.

Chi Moqing carefully combed her hair and nodded, saying, "Those people are my bodyguards. They won't show themselves unless absolutely necessary."

"That's a police station, how can bodyguards be so arrogant?" Yan Zuozuo was even more puzzled.

Chi Moqing paused in combing her hair, but quickly regained her composure. "They're not ordinary bodyguards; they were sent from Zhongnanhai."

Huh? Yan Zuozuo's eyes widened. Had she heard correctly? Zhongnanhai had sent bodyguards to protect her husband?

Then he...

Seeing Yan Zuozuo's complicated expression, Chi Moqing sat down in front of her and said seriously, "Wife, there's something I haven't told you. Actually, the reason I retired from the army was because of an international joint anti-drug operation. Two-thirds of the people involved died, and the rest were protected."

Yan Zuozuo stared at him in shock, speechless for a moment. After a long while, she murmured, "Being protected? Why?" This is completely illogical.

"The other side is an international criminal organization. They suffered heavy casualties in that battle. So they issued an arrest warrant for me because I was the commander of that battle."

Yan Zuozuo blinked in surprise: "But all these years... nothing's happened, has it? Or... or is it that... all the recent events are related to that battle?"

Chi Moqing held her hand tightly: "According to the latest intelligence, J is the head of that criminal organization. He came out in person this time to take my life, to pay tribute to their dead brothers."

Yan Zuozuo couldn't help but stiffen: "Then...then will you be in danger?"

"Don't worry, even though I've been away from the army for so many years, I haven't missed any of the training. It won't be so easy for J to take my life. But..." Chi Moqing looked at her apologetically, "Wife, it's all my fault, I've dragged you into this."

"What are you saying!" Yan Zuozuo glared at him. "We're husband and wife, shouldn't we share joys and sorrows? Besides, your past is a blank to me, so being able to go through these things with you is a kind of compensation for me."

Chi Moqing smiled, reached out and hugged her, resting his chin on her head, and said contentedly, "Wife, I love you."

"I love you too, my husband." Yan Zuozuo nestled in his arms with a smile. Although she was a little worried about J-ye's situation, as long as she could stay by Chi Moqing's side, she had nothing to be afraid of.

Just as they were lost in their sweet romance, the doorbell rang. Yan Zuozuo looked up in confusion, "Who could it be at this hour?"

"I'll go take a look." Chi Moqing got up and went downstairs. Not long after, Yan Zuozuo heard a familiar voice coming from downstairs.

Shining!

Her eyes lit up, and she quickly went downstairs to greet her. Every time she saw Chi Xuecan, she felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and familiarity. "Cancan, what brings you here?"

"Such a big thing has happened, how could I not come and see?"

Yan Zuozuo quickly ushered Chi Xuecan in: "Cancan, your information network is too good! How did you find out so quickly?"

Chi Xuecan smiled but remained silent. Seeing that Chi Moqing was about to close the door, she quickly said, "Don't close it, don't close it. The food delivery person is right behind us."

Yan Zuozuo's eyes widened: "Can Can, you even brought food over? Just tell me if you want some. Although I'm not a great cook, my husband is!"

"I know he's a good cook, so I cooked this and brought it over for him to try, to see if there's anything wrong so I can improve." Her goal is to be a virtuous wife and loving mother, but Huo Heng always can't bear to let her cook. Even if she cooks occasionally, no matter how good or bad it is, Huo Heng always says it's delicious and eats it all.

Although she was very touched, she still felt that she hadn't done enough. Not being able to have a child with Huo Heng was already sad enough for her; she couldn't let Huo Heng continue to have regrets.

"Cancan and Huo Heng have such a good relationship." Yan Zuozuo helped bring the food to the table and then went to the kitchen to get plates and chopsticks.

The table was overflowing with food, a real feast of everything. From steamed dumplings to seafood, from Western steaks to Chinese wontons, even the three of them probably couldn't finish it all in a day.

At the dinner table, Chi Xuecan's eyes were wide open, waiting for their evaluation, and she kept asking, "How was it? How was it?"

Yan Zuozuo glanced at Chi Moqing and saw him frown slightly. "This is too sweet. Reduce the sugar content by one-third."

Chi Xuecan quickly took notes, and then heard Chi Moqing say, "This tastes wrong, there's too much salt, that meat isn't cooked through, and the seafood over there isn't prepared the right way..."

He commented on almost every dish, which made Chi Xuecan feel frustrated. "I knew it, I can't do anything right."

Yan Zuozuo glared at Chi Moqing playfully, thinking, "Is he really that hurtful?" She quickly tried to comfort Chi Xuecan, "Cancan, let's ignore him. His standards are Michelin. We can just cook regular dishes."

"No way! I'm going to aim for Michelin standards too!" Chi Xuecan slammed her hand on the table, declaring with high spirits. But her smile vanished quickly, and she slumped onto the table, muttering, "Huo Heng has done so much for me, and I've done nothing for him. I can't have children, and I can't even cook a decent meal..."
