Chapter 322 They're back safe and sound, that's good.

Zhu Kaixuan looked at the tall and strong young man in front of him, and after a while, he finally matched his memory with a young and innocent face. He breathed a sigh of relief and a long-lost smile appeared in his eyes.

"It's Xiao Ba! You've grown so tall and strong." Zhu Kaixuan raised his hand and squeezed his nephew's strong shoulder, nodding with satisfaction. "You've trained well. It seems you haven't wasted a single day of your training over the past ten years."

Zhu Bao looked at his uncle with red eyes. This big man was so excited that he couldn't speak for a while. After calming down, he nodded.

"Uncle, I always remember what you told me before you left home: the men of the Zhu family should live like men, not only to protect the country but also to safeguard their families. I never believed in that, so I studied hard and practiced martial arts. Now I am a criminal police officer in the public security system."

"Good job, well done!" Zhu Kaixuan patted his nephew's arm with a smile, then tossed the bag he was carrying over, his tone becoming more urgent: "Alright, we can talk about other things later, I need to go find someone first."

"Uncle!"

Just as Zhu Kaixuan was about to turn around, Zhu Bao suddenly grabbed Zhu Kaixuan's arm. Because he was so anxious, the veins on the back of his hand bulged, as if he was afraid that if he let go, the person would suddenly disappear.

"I chose to rush to find you. We can talk about it later. You go home first." Zhu Kaixuan frowned and suddenly turned to glare at Zhu Bao. Because of his anxiety and the unease he had been trying to ignore, he couldn't control his aura, which made him look more like a sharp blade.

An officer who had spent more than a decade on the chaotic border battlefields, teetering on the brink of death every few days, and who had just returned from the battlefield, had already managed to regulate his emotions and the fierce aura that had been tainted by the smoke of war and the brushes with life and death.

Even Zhu Bao almost lost control and let go of his uncle's hand when faced with such a pair of eyes.

Fortunately, Zhu Kaixuan wasn't so incapable of distinguishing friend from foe, and he immediately suppressed his intimidating aura.

Fortunately, Zhu Bao was still rational and remembered his grandfather's repeated instructions before he came to pick him up. He quickly said, "Uncle, when I came, my grandfather repeatedly told me to take you home to see him first. He also said... he said that if you can't find him, you should go back to see him first, and he will tell you where he is."

Hearing these words, Zhu Kaixuan felt an even stronger sense of unease, but he knew his father's personality and temperament, so he could only believe what he said.

He took a deep breath, turned around, opened the car door, and got in, urging the tall guy who was still standing there dumbfounded.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go home."

"Oh, oh, oh, here it comes, here it comes!" Zhu Bao jumped up with a start, quickly took a long stride, opened the car door and jumped in, then started the car and sped off towards the No. 1 Military District compound in Beijing.

On the way back, Zhu Bao glanced at his uncle, who was sitting silently in the back seat, through the rearview mirror. His brows furrowed slightly, as if the lingering fear he had just felt still lingered in his heart.

Now he finally admitted it completely: the girl he met in Kaiyuan City a month ago was indeed his uncle's child.

It has to be said, this blood ties are truly amazing.

Just a moment ago, the instant he met his uncle's eyes, it was as if he had suddenly met another pair of beautiful fox eyes.

One possessed a more chilling and intimidating hardness, while the other was more agile and cunning, yet equally powerful intimidating, capable of silencing the opponent with a single glance.

Moreover, he discovered that his little cousin's eyes looked exactly like his uncle's, as if they had been peeled off from the same face.

However, according to his grandfather, his little cousin actually looks more like his aunt. Unfortunately, he only saw her once from afar when he was young and didn't even know that she was his aunt.

Just as Zhu Bao appeared calm on the surface but was experiencing a mental storm, the military green jeep slowly drove into the No. 1 Military District compound in Kyoto and finally stopped in front of a three-story building.

The moment the car came to a complete stop, Zhu Kaixuan pushed open the car door and jumped out. He didn't even want to wait for the gate to open. He ran up in a few big strides and lightly leaped over the waist-high fence. Before Zhu Bao could even get out of the car, his uncle was already out of sight.

Zhu Kaixuan moved here with his parents before he joined the army, so even though he had been away for more than ten years, he was still very familiar with the place. After pushing open the door, he went straight to his father's study on the second floor without looking at anything else.

Pushing open the study door, Zhu Kaixuan immediately saw a figure standing by the window with his back to him.

My father's figure was still tall and strong, probably because of the bloodline of the Zhu family. The men of the Zhu family were born with a large frame and were particularly healthy from birth. There were very few weak boys around them. Unless they encountered some major disaster, none of them would grow up to be thin and weak.

Whether it was my aging father or my grandfather in my memory, even in their old age, they were still tall, strong, and robust old men.

He has a somewhat rugged appearance, but he's definitely not ugly; he's just... fierce, very fierce.

But the wives they find, regardless of their true personalities, are always pretty and charming with a gentle temperament.

In the words of Old Master Zhu, only by finding a wife like this can the appearance of the next generation be improved, so that the whole family won't always be mistaken for bandits when they go out.

This method did succeed, but the success rate was a bit low. Of Zhu Dadao's generation of brothers, only the youngest looked like his mother. It was also a coincidence that Zhu Kaixuan's generation, the youngest, was handsome, but unfortunately, his personality was completely opposite to his face. He was known as a troublemaker among the younger generation in their area.

Who would have thought that the youngest member of the Zhu family, who had always loved teasing cats and dogs, was fearless and caused headaches for many elders, and was even predicted by many to never amount to anything, would give up everything for a belief and a legacy passed down from his ancestors, willingly becoming what others called a dead man, to carry out a mission with no return date and no prospect of life or death.

"I'm back!"

Hearing the noise, Old Master Zhu turned around and looked at his youngest son, whom he hadn't seen for over a decade. His seemingly calm face was taut, and his hands, clenched into fists behind his back, trembled slightly. In the end, all his turbulent emotions boiled down to a single sentence.

"It's good that you're back safe and sound!"
