Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 356: Dad

"You came back before, why didn’t you acknowledge me? Why are you acknowledging me now?" Xu Qinghuan was somewhat puzzled.

Such an experience of crying bitterly, she hadn’t had for many years.

Since she became sensible, she never cried bitterly again, because even if she cried, no one would feel sorry for her. Instead, it would annoy people.

Jian Jingchuan took out a handkerchief and wiped his daughter’s face, "Dad was previously due to the nature of his task, and was afraid that acknowledging you would put you in danger. Now that some things have been exposed, telling you about the situation and letting you be vigilant might be safer."

He felt very guilty, "I’m sorry, Dad brought trouble to you."

Xu Qinghuan didn’t really care, "You know, just when I went to the countryside, Song Wanlin sent people to kill both me and Xingye. The Lu Family’s methods this time were quite mild, they didn’t immediately want my life."

Jian Jingchuan probably knew already, so he didn’t seem very surprised. His big hand stroked his daughter’s hair and then slid down her frail shoulder, "Dad will seek justice for you!"

"How will you seek justice?" Xu Qinghuan curiously asked.

Jian Jingchuan said, "Didn’t you say Lu Ranglian is suspected of plotting against me? If this suspicion holds, he did not only plot against me, he has committed the capital crime of treason.

If I can’t find evidence, I can still accuse him of destroying a military marriage. I heard from Uncle Li that the Huo Family has relevant evidence?"

"The evidence is with me," Xu Qinghuan said, "But, in this way, wouldn’t you be letting the entire nation know you have been cuckolded?"

Jian Jingchuan chuckled, "Are you afraid of hurting Dad’s dignity?"

Xu Qinghuan pursed her lips without saying a word, but this awkward look was seen by Jian Jingchuan, and his daughter was wonderful in every way.

He seemed to be reminded of when she was young, from birth, as long as he wasn’t on a mission, she slept with him. At night, he was the one taking care of her, except for feeding, bathing, changing diapers, and braiding pigtails, he did it all himself.

Such a tiny one, curled up in his arms, her two small legs often kicking his stomach. One of his hands could hold her two little feet, and when she wasn’t happy, she would claw at his face with her hands, making him hug her and kiss her fervently.

Later, during those long years in foreign countries, he made it through by reminiscing these moments.

National sentiment may be stirring, but in the end, he was only a common man, with his heart unable to let go of only the country and his daughter.

"Dad’s dignity is not here, even if the whole army knew, no one would dare laugh at Dad."

Jian Jingchuan did not mind before because Song Wanlin gave him a daughter, to him, the most precious treasure in the world.

Song Wanlin and Lu Ranglian may dare to touch his daughter, how could he be lenient?

Xu Qinghuan also understood, her dad was a soldier, his achievements and face were on the battlefield. He never lost a battle in his life, he fought alone like a lone wolf for fourteen years, who wouldn’t respect him as a hero?

Jian Jingchuan took out a manila envelope from the briefcase beside him and handed it to Xu Qinghuan.

"What?" Xu Qinghuan had just cried, her voice buzzing.

"Open it and see, Dad saved it for you." Jian Jingchuan worried that his daughter wouldn’t want it, he ran his hand over Xu Qinghuan’s hair, "Dad always thinks that his daughter has grown up, and when she marries in the future, she can’t be without a dowry, lest people ridicule."

Xu Qinghuan’s eyes were red again. As she opened the passbook, there were actually more than forty thousand yuan inside, "How could it be so much?"

"Because Dad has been receiving two salaries over these years."

He wanted to support the families of those comrades who had sacrificed, but he couldn’t contact anyone domestically, and his expenses weren’t high, so all the money was saved here.

He did not say much, and Xu Qinghuan did not ask, many things might need to be kept secret.

There were four property certificates, two garden houses in Shen City and two courtyard houses in Yan City, the locations were very good, the areas quite large, and all written in her name.

"Dad heard you like buying houses, in the future, keep the money for yourself, Dad will help you buy the houses." He looked at his daughter’s expression, cautiously said.

Xu Qinghuan wrinkled her nose, her finger gently picking at the creases on the paper, which was what she did when she was helpless, "So much, it’s enough, I don’t want much."

She lifted her eyes and looked at Jian Jingchuan.

She didn’t mean to blame him, in the past life her biological parents abandoned her, and she never blamed them, letting go might be hard, but no matter how difficult, how long, she made it through.

The person in front of her, for the sake of the country, was unable to care for her, but his heart never left her.

This passbook was in an account opened with her name, from the day she was born, it had been saving money, saving until today, accumulating such a substantial sum, it was the heaviest gift she received from an elder in both lifetimes.

Jian Jingchuan gave her the love of parents from two lifetimes.

Xu Qinghuan couldn’t call out "Dad," she simply placed her forehead against Jian Jingchuan’s shoulder, sobbing softly.

Jian Jingchuan was heartbroken, he hugged his daughter in his arms, gently patting her just like when she was a child to coax her to sleep.

Jiang Xingye heard Xu Qinghuan crying, anxious, but he understood better than anyone, no one doesn’t yearn for parental affection, he didn’t yearn for it because it could not be sought, it couldn’t be obtained.

After fourteen years of no news, Jiang Xingye did not know what Xu Qinghuan thought, so, at that time, he suspected Jian Jingchuan’s identity and held back from telling Xu Qinghuan.

If forgiveness weren’t possible, it would be better to let the person die.

But Jian Jingchuan wanted to recognize his daughter; he had no position to intervene.

"Huanhuan?" Jiang Xingye couldn’t listen anymore; he wanted to rush in.

Xu Qinghuan restrained her tears, raised her head, Jian Jingchuan coaxed, "Don’t cry, your eyes are swollen, it won’t look good."

He used a handkerchief to wipe Xu Qinghuan’s tears, "Xingye, come in!" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Only then did Jiang Xingye push the door open and enter, and he glanced over at Jian Jingchuan, his gaze on Xu Qinghuan was as gentle as water.

The father-in-law and son-in-law each took a seat on either side of Xu Qinghuan.

"Xingye, you should have heard outside the door earlier, my identity?" Jian Jingchuan said.

Jiang Xingye nodded, "I respect you as a hero and a remarkable soldier!"

But definitely not a good father.

Jian Jingchuan understood the underlying meaning of the words, even though he felt uncomfortable, life is always filled with this or that burden to bear, and he had passed through gunfire, wandered at the gates of hell, survived countless times, long accustomed to moving forward under heavy loads.

"Thank you for taking care of my daughter during her most difficult times."

"It’s my obligation, I do it willingly, I don’t need anyone’s thanks."

Jian Jingchuan nodded, "Whether you need it is your affair, whether I thank is mine. There might be danger in the following period, can I entrust her to you?"

Jiang Xingye was somewhat angry, was silent with a cold face.

Xu Qinghuan smiled at his awkward expression, "Dad, I trust him; he is like you, willing to exchange his life for mine, you need not doubt his sincerity or capability."

Jian Jingchuan heard her call out "Dad" naturally, just like when she was young, tears glistened in his eyes.

He nodded with difficulty, "That’s good!"

As he nodded, the tears fell, striking towards the ground.
