Chapter 676: Grandfather, I had no choice

Either it was someone from the Gun King Special Training, and they had people in Huaxia, people very deep-rooted, whom they had not detected.

Or, someone had leaked the news.

Regardless of which it was, for Huaxia, it was not good news.

"Regarding An Yinan's matter, the higher-ups have no right to choose; everything is left to her."

"To accept the challenge, or to refuse."

The Gun King Special Training—if a designated person does not arrive, it is considered a refusal, and an existence despised by militaries worldwide.

Coward!

Trash!

A series of words, used to label them.

They knew, which was why they were angry.

But they had no choice.

"Good." Chen Xun nodded.

"The mission in City, it cannot do without Nan Nan, but you and Zhang Qian must enter secret special training for a period of half a year."

"Nan Nan's temper, you know, I know; will she back down?"

Yun Fei looked into Chen Xun's eyes; two men, for the sake of a person they both protected, were plotting everything for the future.

Would she?

No,

She would not!

This answer did not even need to pass through their brains; they both knew it.

An Yinan, would not!

Then...

"I will take the special training." Chen Xun said firmly.

Special training, to raise physical functions to the best state, to exhaust all efforts to develop physical functions; when the time comes, whoever touches her, he will slaughter them.

Yun Fei nodded with relief; fortunately, he did not say he would persuade Nan Nan.

Instead, he accepted the mission directly.

No one knew the purpose of the Gun King Special Training, and no one knew who was ultimately controlling everything behind the scenes.

But...

At this moment, Yun Fei was satisfied.

"Chen Xun." He shouted loudly.

Chen Xun immediately stood straight, legs together, his slender and explosive body now upright, "Here!"

"The special training lasts for half a year, starting at two o'clock this afternoon; you only have two hours to prepare, do you understand?" Yun Fei asked.

"Understood!" Chen Xun replied immediately.

He looked at Yun Fei, then said firmly, "Big Uncle, I am going to say goodbye."

This time, when he returned from saying goodbye, it would be half a year later.

"Go." Yun Fei waved his hand.

Chen Xun left the military, driving a military jeep; the people at the military supply department had asked him that morning whether he and his wife were choosing one courtyard for the two of them, or one each?

Two military commanders, both from red-blooded families; regardless of whose status they relied on, either was sufficient to enter the Military District Compound.

They relied on their own abilities.

One a confidential military commander, one with countless military merits who climbed up step by step on their own; they were enough to command respect.

He had not expected that after calling his wife in the morning, he would have to go say goodbye in the afternoon.

"Daddy."

"Daddy."

The two Xiaobao looked at Chen Xun running back with long strides, both of their eyes lighting up; except for the two days after they were born, Chen Xun had spent more time with them later than Nan Nan had.

The two of them were extremely affectionate toward him.

"Dabao, Xiaobao." Chen Xun picked up the two children, kissed one, then the other; there was no reluctance in his eyes.

He just looked at Dabao and said, "Dabao, you are the older brother; take good care of your sister in the future, you know?"

Dabao blinked his eyes; he was still small now and did not understand the meaning of taking care of someone.

But he seemed to be able to sense his father's nervous mood, using his chubby little hands to gently pat Chen Xun's face, as if it were a form of comfort.

Afterward, Chen Xun looked at Xiaobao, "Xiaobao, be good and listen to your brother, and listen to Grandma and Grandmother."

Because "Great-Aunt" was a bit convoluted, when An Yinan and Chen Xun taught the children, they always called Liu Xicai "Big Grandmother" and Fang Hong "Second Grandmother."

One reason was that it was easy for the children to remember.

Another was that their love for the children was worthy of such titles.

Liu Xicai frowned, "Chen Xun, are you going on a mission too?"

Sun Chunhua looked at her son; when her son went on missions in the past, he would just call home to ask if everything was well.

Now he was giving instructions to the children; it did not look like he was going on a mission, but rather like... entrusting them to others?

Chen Xun smiled, put the two children down, and hugged his mother, "Mom, I am going for secret training; I might not be home for half a year."

"I will have to trouble you to look after the house."

"Big Aunt, for so many years, whether it was us or the children, we have caused you much trouble; I know you cherish Nan Nan like your own daughter, so I will not stand on ceremony with you."

Liu Xicai looked at Chen Xun, "You child, why are you saying all this?"

Chen Xun smiled, "I am going back to see Grandfather."

His expression was somewhat indifferent; he never regretted things once he had made a decision.

"Go on then," Liu Xicai nodded.

Sun Chunhua and Liu Xicai exchanged a glance; they had sent one away yesterday, and today, they were sending off another.

When would this family ever be able to gather together?

Chen Xun went over to the Chen Family, and when Grandpa Chen saw him return, he put down his newspaper.

He didn't read much when he was young, but now that he was old, he had grown fond of reading newspapers; after all, he could always see reports about his granddaughter-in-law in them.

Whether it was the An Group or the Development Economics of Pengcheng, the shadow of his granddaughter-in-law was everywhere.

"Have you decided?" Grandpa Chen asked.

He was a veteran revolutionary, after all; when the higher-ups held meetings, he naturally attended, and he understood the situation even better than they did.

Seeing his grandson return, he already had an idea in his heart about his choice.

Moreover, he felt quite gratified.

"Grandpa, I have no choice," Chen Xun smiled; after seeing his child and mother, his mindset had relaxed quite a bit.

Besides, even if he had a choice, he would still have to go!

This was not just about his personal life or death; it also concerned the international standing and the face of Huaxia.

He could die, but the face of Huaxia was something won back by countless predecessors and martyrs; he could not lose it, nor could he let it go.

Knowing it meant death, he would still go!

This was what a soldier was; obeying orders was a sacred duty, and the determination to face death was the red flag waving above, the blood of martyrs beneath their feet, and the shoulders of countless people striving forward.

"Good!"

"Worthy of being a member of my Chen Family."

Grandpa Chen slapped the armrest of his chair and stood up straight, looking at Chen Xun with deep gratification in his heart.

This was his grandson, the grandson of his Chen Family.

"Grandpa supports you. You can rest assured about the family; as long as I, this old man, am still around, no one will dare to touch them," the old man promised.

As for the name of An Yinan, he did not ask, nor could he ask.

In his heart, he didn't want his granddaughter-in-law to go either!

"Grandpa, I want to make a phone call to my wife," Chen Xun said.

At the Yun Family, there were many things that could not be said because the Yun Family had too many people and loose lips, but at the Chen Family, there was only Grandpa himself, and he knew the situation.

Moreover, the phone in the Dayuan was the most secure; one never knew if phones outside were being tapped.

"Go ahead and call; I'm going back to my room," Grandpa Chen said, leaving the space to his grandson.

At this time, Nan Nan should be at her project; these two people, they were both just too capable—capable enough to make other countries wary and make them exhaust every scheme.
