Shen Hu's complexion was ugly, very ugly.

After Cui Cui smashed the bowl just now, he also sobered up a lot. Seeing that the couple had left the banquet for a long time, Shen Hu found an excuse to come over to have a look. Unexpectedly, he heard Cu Cui's words outside the door. if.

And Chi Rui is also a disappointment, what is meant by 'you say no, I won't do it'.

Isn't it too ridiculous for a man of seven feet to let a little girl control his thoughts?

But while Shen Hu was angry, didn't he also forget that the reason why he joined the army in the first place was because of Chi Rui's mother?Isn't it also for a woman?

"Overlord." Chi Rui was only slightly stunned after seeing the two people outside the door, and then his face returned to that calm and breezy look, "Cui Cui is fine, we will go there soon."

"Hmph—" Shen Hu gave Cui Cui a hard look, then turned around and left with Yu Rong.

Shen Hu was a very good father when he was kind, but when he was serious, he was very frightening. After all, he was a man who had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, so he always had some bloodthirsty aura about him.

Cui Cui was weak when she was pregnant, but when he stared at her like this, her heart suddenly became frightened, and she took a small step back to stabilize her figure.

Sensing Cui Cui's emotions, Chi Rui immediately turned around and hugged her, comforting her softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

The warm breath on Chi Rui's body made Cui Cui gradually relax, but Shen Hu's eyes just now left a deep imprint on her heart.

At the end of this banquet, Cui Cui didn't know how it ended, because she never dared to raise her head.

After finally returning home, she only felt sleepy for a while, and after taking a hasty bath, she hurriedly went to bed and lay down for sleep.

In the dream, Cui Cui felt as if she had entered an illusory world, she walked along the light at the end of the road, kept walking...

The end point is a familiar place, like one of the places where Shen Jun practiced?

Turning around numbly, she saw Shen Hu pointing a gun at Zhixia. He said that the struggle between Xiangtian and Chi Rui could only end if Zhixia died.

Xiang Tian and Chi Rui?And Zhixia?How is this going?

Could this be a scene from a previous life? ?

But now Cui Cui has no time to think, because Shen Hu's hand is about to pull the trigger.Cuicui stood outside the crowd, she seemed to run to tell Shen Hu that Zhixia is your daughter, you can't kill her.

But no matter how she yelled, Shen Hu and the others seemed to be unable to hear her, and her hands and feet seemed to be bound by someone, and she couldn't move at all...

"No, don't shoot—" She wanted to struggle, but the more she struggled, the more she couldn't move her body.

Cui Cui could see the anxious expressions on everyone's faces, and could understand their conversation quite clearly, but they just couldn't feel her presence.

"don't want--"

Finally, with her roar, the picture suddenly changed...

Now Zhixia stood outside the crowd and was stopped, while Cuicui became the prey of Shen Hu's gun.

Shen Hu aimed his cold gun at Cui Cui, and said in a cold tone, "Wu Cuicui, Chi Rui is my favorite heir, why did you destroy it? I want to kill you, so that he will be obedient Accept the position of Overseer."

"No, I didn't—" Cui Cui subconsciously covered her stomach with her hands, and stepped back step by step, "Overseer, you can't shoot, if you kill me, kill Chi Rui's child, he will only He will hate you even more, and he will definitely not accept the position of Overseer."

"Then let him hate me." The finger pressing the trigger was slowly exerting force, and Shen Hu suddenly smiled, "Then let him hate me, you know, hate can make a person even more powerful."

Cui Cui's vision has been blurred by tears, she is scared, very scared...

She couldn't believe it, if she and the child in her belly were really killed by Shen Hu's gun, what would Chi Rui look like?

Looking around, she didn't find Chi Rui's figure, so she trembled even more, "Chi Rui, where are you, Chi Rui? Come and save me—"

"Chi Rui won't come, he won't come to save you." Shen Hu suddenly burst out laughing, "Wu Cuicui, do you know how many things Chi Rui has done to disobey me because of you? He wants to quit because of you." Shen Jun. Heh, what is your charm? I think he can do great things with peace of mind only after you die. Don’t you love him? Don’t you want him to have great achievements? "

"I don't want, don't—" In the empty field, there were many soldiers around, but they all watched coldly, and no one wanted to go up to help Cui Cui.

"boom--"

With a crisp gunshot, Cui Cui closed her eyes in despair.

But after a long time, there was no pain on her body, and it seemed that some hot liquid splashed on her face and body?

She slowly opened her eyes and saw that Chi Rui was standing in front of her, and there was a blood hole in front of his chest...

"Chi Rui—"

Accompanied by a startled and angry cry, Cui Cui suddenly sat up from the bed, her face and skirt were completely wet with tears and sweat.

"Cui Cui, wake up, it's a dream, don't be afraid."

As early as when Cui Cui had a nightmare just now, Chi Rui who was lying next to her was woken up by her, and then no matter how he called Cui Cui, he couldn't wake up.

Seeing her sitting up now, Chi Rui immediately hugged her into his arms and coaxed her softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine, I'm here."

Although he didn't know why Cui Cui called his name in such a shrill voice, he guessed that Cui Cui dreamed that something happened to him.

"Chi Rui?" After seeing the person holding her clearly, Cui Cui immediately stretched out her hand to touch his chest, "You just—"

"It's just a dream." Chi Rui stepped back a little, and opened his arms to show her, "I'm fine."

After carefully opening Chi Ruixue's white inner jacket and inspecting it several times, Cui Cui felt relieved, and leaned into his arms slowly, "I was scared to death, I dreamed, I dreamed that you were trying to save me. I was shot in the chest..."

As if participating in Cui Cui's dream, Chi Rui suddenly said, "That shot must have been fired by the warlord, right?"

"How do you know?" Cui Cui immediately raised her head when she heard this, and looked at him in surprise, "How do you know what I dreamed about?"

"Based on your appearance in the Governor's Mansion today, how could I not guess it?" Chi Rui smiled lightly, picked up a handkerchief from the side of the pillow, and gently wiped away the tears from Cui Cui's face.

Not long ago, Cui Cui was terrified by Shen Hu's eyes, and now Chi Rui would not find it strange to have a nightmare or something.

He just felt a little distressed. Cui Cui had already worked hard while she was pregnant, but she still had to worry about his affairs.

Patting Cui Cui's shoulder lightly for a while, when her mood gradually calmed down, Chi Rui asked curiously, "Cui Cui, what did you dream about?"

"I dreamed that the warlord wanted to kill me and the child in my stomach." Cui Cui's voice was choked up uncontrollably, "He said it was all my fault, it was my existence that blocked your future, so he must Kill me, so that you can take over the position of Overseer with peace of mind."

Although she knew that the dream was fake, Cui Cui still trembles when she thinks about it now...

After all, Shen Hu in the previous life did almost kill Zhixia, so this time, will her dream come true?

He let Zhixia off before because Zhixia was his own daughter.

Cui Cui didn't dare to think, if one day she really fell into Shen Hu's hands, what would happen to her?Will he really kill himself?

In the darkness, Chi Rui's firm eyes became brighter and brighter, "This kind of thing will never happen, absolutely not."

"Well——" Cui Cui nodded, stretched out her hand to gently attach to her stomach, and said softly, "Baby, I'm sorry. It was my mother who was too emotional just now, don't be afraid, be good, it's okay .”

During pregnancy, the older the child is, the more he can feel the mother's emotional changes, so Cui Cui is afraid that her own nervousness and fear just now will make the child also excited.

But the child in her womb seemed to understand it, and it didn't make any noise, and didn't respond at all.

"Xin'er will understand mother." Seeing Cui Cui's small movements, Chi Rui showed a faint smile on his lips, and covered Cui Cui's tenderness with his big warm hands, he comforted softly, "Go to bed early, I'm afraid the child will be unhappy when you wake him up."

"Okay." Cui Cui nodded obediently, pulled the quilt and lay down, her eyes closed after blinking twice.

After coaxing Cui Cui to sleep, Chi Rui supported his head with one hand, leaned on the bed and quietly looked at Cui Cui's sleeping face.Because she cried a while ago, there are still some wet tears on Cuicui's eyelashes.

Chi Rui leaned down and kissed her gently on the brow and eyes, certain thoughts became more and more firm in his heart.

It seems that what he said was not clear enough, which made Cui Cui feel this fear.Maybe, it's time to make a clear statement with Shen Hu.

He had no intention of military affairs, if such a day would make Cui Cui feel panic, it would be even more impossible.

In the next few days, Chi Rui left early and returned late, Cui Cui was in a state of confusion and dared not go out, so she stayed at home to conceive.It was at this time that Guier came to the door.

The girl Gui'er gave birth to a pair of twins not long after she got married, and it was tiring enough to take care of the children on weekdays, so she seldom came to Cuicui.

It's just that when she came this time, she brought a bad news——

"Young Mistress, I heard from my husband that my in-laws...he seems to have had an accident."

"What's wrong with my father?" Cui Cui had a bad premonition in her heart, "Gui Er, tell me the truth, what have you heard?"

"Master in-law, seems to have killed someone..."

Gui'er's husband originally followed Long Tianze, but because Cui Cui took Gui'er into consideration, she asked Chi Rui to help him so that he didn't have to go out to fight anymore, but stayed in Jincheng to work.

That's why Gui'er knew the news that Wu Jiu was locked up in prison after the murder this time.

"Intentional murder? Oh, what a big hat—" Cui Cui stabilized her figure with the support of the table, and said in a deep voice after a long time, "Gui'er, can you ask your husband to take me there?" Prison to see my father?"

"But Young Mistress, your body?" Gui'er glanced uncertainly at Cui Cui's six-month-old belly, "Don't you want to tell Young Master?"

"Since you know everything, Chi Rui should know too." Cui Cui said while walking with Huan'er's support, "Maybe Chi Rui is chatting with my father in the prison right now."

Cui Cui's premonition was correct, when she entered the cell led by Mrs. Gui'er, Chi Rui was drinking with Wu Jiu.

"Why are you still in the mood to drink?" Cui Cui walked in and smiled helplessly at the two of them, "How is it? Doesn't it have a special taste to sit in this kind of place and drink?"

In fact, it's not that Cui Cui said it's bad, it's just that she thinks Chi Rui and Wu Jiu are really a strange combination.

Chi Rui saw that he was the kind of personable Mr. Jia, saying that there was nothing wrong with him drinking and talking with Shen Hu, but if he was with Wu Jiu, a gambler, it would be weird no matter how you looked...

"I knew you would definitely come." Chi Rui showed a more helpless expression than her, then took off her coat and put it on the chair next to her, and then let Cui Cui sit down, "That girl Guier told Yours? Really, I'm already married and don't let me worry. "

When he said this, Chi Rui gave Gui'er's husband who was standing at the door of the cell a hard sideways glance.

The man immediately laughed a few times in fright, turned his head and ran away.

"Father, what's going on? Don't tell me, you really killed someone? Did you kill a sugar man or a puppet?" Cui Cui crossed her arms and looked at Wu Jiudao expressionlessly, "I It's your daughter, I know you best, I don't believe you have the guts."

Wu Jiu twitched the corner of his mouth in embarrassment. Should he thank his daughter for her trust?Or should I actually kill someone to show Cui Cui and prove it?

Ouch, this question is really cruel...

"It's meaningless to pursue this now. The governor ordered him to arrest him." Chi Rui answered Cui Cui's question instead of Wu Jiu, "Cui Cui, don't worry, I can't take my father-in-law out immediately, but Give me some time, and I will negotiate with the Overseer."

Hearing Chi Rui's words, Wu Jiu quickly echoed, "That's right, girl, you are pregnant now, so don't worry too much about your father, you can go back and raise your baby with peace of mind."

"I'll make arrangements here." Chi Rui pulled Cui Cui up, tidied her bangs a little, and then pushed her out, "The air in the cell is not good, you should get out."

"No, I—"

"Girl, don't worry, my good son-in-law is here." Seeing that Cuicui was about to speak, Wu Jiu immediately interrupted her, "Just be obedient and go back quickly."

Cui Cui was fooled out of the cell by the two of them singing together, and she didn't realize that she didn't ask anything at all!

Cuicui is not stupid, so she naturally knows that Chi Rui and Wu Jiu are going around like this, but they don't intend to tell her the real ins and outs.

"Don't you say so?" Cui Cui raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and directly opened the car door and sat on it, and said coldly to the driver, "Go to the Governor's Mansion."

Since you don't say anything, I'll just ask the mastermind behind this matter.

As if guessing Cui Cui's visit, Shen Hu is waiting for her in the study.

Instead of the tension of the last time, Shen Hu seemed much more cordial this time, and his tone softened, as if he was talking about family matters in normal times, "Cui Cui, I heard from Ling Xue that you call Bicheng a 'godmother' right?"

"Yes." Cui Cui replied blankly, but she was thinking about Shen Hu's plan in her heart.

What is Liu Bicheng doing at this very moment?

"Since you recognize Bicheng, you are naturally Shen Hu's goddaughter." At this moment, Shen Hu has never been kind to Cui Cui, "Have you not officially called me 'godfather' yet?" ?”

Cui Cui suddenly felt a little helpless, why is she picking up relatives now?

Shen Hu had never raised this question before, but now that he said it like this, no matter how you look at it, there is a problem!

Biting her lower lip tightly, Cui Cui looked at his smiling eyes, and it took her a long time to call out in a low voice, "...Godfather."

"good--"

"..."

If it wasn't for the wrong time, Cui Cui felt that now is a scene of confessing relatives, and Shen Hu might take out a red envelope to give her at any time.

Hey, wait, didn't she come to recognize her father, okay?

"Overseer, I came today to ask, who did my father kill? How did he kill it? Why are you sure he is the murderer?" Too lazy to go around with Shen Hu, Cui Cui directly asked her doubts, "Please You tell me."

"Didn't you just come out of prison?" Shen Hu said leisurely and calmly, "Didn't Chi Rui tell you?"

Sure enough, his every move has been monitored by him, Cui Cui pulled the corner of her mouth helplessly, "Chi Rui refused to tell me, that's why I came here."

"It's not that he doesn't want to tell you, but he's afraid that if he tells you, he will disappoint you." Lit a cigarette, Shen Hu took a deep breath, and after exhaling all the smoke, he slowly said, "Because, it's too late now." There is absolutely no way Rui can help you rescue your father."

"Overlord, my father didn't kill anyone." This is the only thing Cuicui is sure about.

With Wu Jiu's temperament, Cui Cui would believe that he owed tens of millions, but Cui Cui would never believe in murder.

After all, it is her own father, no matter how unbearable, Cui Cui will not follow others to accuse him for no reason, let alone believe this absurd theory of murder.

"You're a smart man, is it useful to argue with me?" Shen Hu avoided Cui Cui's words and asked another question, "You just need to know that in Jincheng, the warlord is the one who can decide everything."

"..."

Cui Cui did not speak again, but quietly waited for Shen Hu's next words.

"If Chi Rui takes over my seat, he will be able to say that the whole Jincheng belongs to him, then as long as he says a word, your father will be safe."

Like a hunter who has been waiting for his prey for a long time, Shen Hu slowly lured Cuicui into the net that he had set up a long time ago, "Isn't the title 'Madam of the Warlord' better than 'Mrs. Chi'?"

Madam Overseer?

For this question, Cui Cui felt a little familiar?

Ah, now that I think about it, it seems that Long Tianze asked her this way in his previous life.

At that time, Long Tianze rebelled, and he wanted to be the military governor himself. When he informed Cui Cui that Chi Rui was dead, he also informed her that he would marry her as the only military governor's wife.

Cui Cui at that time, she refused because the person was wrong.

Now, with the same question, she will still refuse it again. The person is right, but the thing is wrong.

"Sorry—" Because she was pregnant, Cui Cui couldn't bow, so she could only slightly nod to express her apology, "I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, Governor, I don't like the title 'Ms. I'm just a little woman in this mansion, I just want my husband and children to live with me in peace."

Hearing such an answer, Shen Hu didn't even snort coldly.

Still a little girl?This Wu Cuicui can really speak, she can be said to control the rise and fall of the future Jincheng and the future Shen Jun, and she has the nerve to say that she is an insignificant little woman?

"Let me ask you, why don't you want Chi Rui to be the military governor? You clearly know that he is more suitable for this position than Xiangtian and Tianze." Shen Hu didn't want to break his face yet, so he held back his anger and asked, " Why do you think I'm patiently chatting with you here? That's because Chi Rui listens to you the most, and your nod is more effective than Yu Rong's words."

It's not that Shen Hu has never tried to deal with Yu Rong and Grandma Chi, but they were all rejected by Chi Rui without exception.

And the reason for the rejection is the same - Wu Cuicui!

"Of course I know he is suitable." Cui Cui always has a sense of pride every time she talks about Chi Rui, "Chi Rui is my husband, and no one knows him better than me. But I don't want the burden on his shoulders to get bigger and bigger. There are more and more. He lost his father since he was a child, his mother remarried, and he is already tired enough to support Chi's family alone. If he takes over the position of military governor again, with Chi Rui's temperament, he will definitely be responsible to the end."

"Heh—" Shen Hu sneered as if hearing some funny joke, "Isn't it good for a man to be responsible?"

"Of course. But what I'm most afraid of is his mentality." Cui Cui unconsciously took two steps forward, and boldly asked Shen Hu, "Overlord, don't you think you are too selfish? Just because you If you are dissatisfied with Long Tianze, do you want Chi Rui to stand up? Chi Rui has his own ideals, and it was already an accident that he joined the army, and I don't want another accident to happen."

Cui Cui clearly knows how dangerous it is to challenge Shen Hu's authority, but for Chi Rui's sake, she is willing to try it.

This time, she absolutely wouldn't budge.

"Bam—"

Shen Hu slapped the table fiercely, and the cigar she held on her fingertips just now was also smashed together, "Stubborn!"

"If the warlord thinks so, it means I, Wu Cuicui, are really stubborn." Cuicui nodded slightly again, "Cuicui is leaving today."

Watching Cui Cui walking towards the door step by step, Shen Hu's cold voice was as terrifying as coming from hell, "Come here, arrest Young Mistress Chi."

Cui Cui, who was detained by the guards who rushed in from outside the door, had a slight sullen look on her face, "May I ask the governor, what crime have I committed?"

Shen Hu calmly took out a dagger and stabbed a bloody hole in his arm, then pulled out the dagger and threw it at Cui Cui's feet, "Assassination of the warlord, is this crime enough? Young Mistress Chi!"
