Chapter 571: Chapter 570 Entrusting the Young
Xu Chihu said.
"Actually, I’m not from the inland."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan was somewhat surprised.
Xu Chihu continued,
"I was originally the head of a large underground organization overseas. I had many brothers under me. Later, because of a power struggle, I was betrayed by a close brother. A group of assassins surrounded me and even kidnapped my pregnant wife."
"I desperately fled with my wife, but an accident still occurred. My wife took a bullet for me and died tragically. Little Meng is actually a posthumous child."
"I jumped into the sea holding Little Meng, and fortunately, we were rescued by a fishing boat from the inland. They took me and Little Meng back to the mainland."
"I knew those people would not let it go, so I took Little Meng and came to this remote mountain area."
"You know what happened next."
"Originally, I thought I had no hope for revenge in this life and was planning to commit suicide after Little Meng settled down and join my late wife. Unexpectedly, I met you, not only did you cure my disability, but my strength gradually recovered."
Zhang Xiaoshan listened in shock.
Indeed, Xu Chihu was no ordinary man.
After hesitating for a moment, he said to Xu Chihu,
"According to what you’ve said, Uncle Xu, that was twenty years ago. You’ve been bedridden for twenty years with no progress in strength, while the other party definitely hasn’t been idle either and has grown much stronger. Your quest for revenge might be quite difficult."
Xu Chihu said with a resolute expression,
"I’ve thought about this too, but the vengeance for killing my wife cannot be shared under the same sky."
"And there are hundreds of brothers who died protecting me."
"I must avenge this grudge, otherwise I will not rest in peace even in death."
"Actually, I’ve been living on borrowed time for so many years; I’ve earned more than expected."
"Now that I’ve recovered, doing nothing would be too unfair to my deceased wife and brothers."
"So, I have decided to leave."
The tone of Xu Chihu was unequivocal, carrying a hint of resigned determination.
Anyone would harbor deep grudges in such a situation.
Zhang Xiaoshan hesitated slightly before asking,
"What about Little Meng?"
Xu Chihu seemed to have already made plans, and he laid it all out immediately,
"This revenge trip to the sea is bound to be dangerous, a near-certain death. Not knowing what will happen, I will not take Little Meng with me to risk her life. I plan to leave Little Meng here, to continue living incognito. If the revenge goes well and I reclaim what was once mine, I will return to the inland and reunite with Little Meng."
"If I die overseas, then there will no longer be a Xu Chihu in this world, and those enemies won’t be able to find Little Meng. Let her live the rest of her life as an ordinary person."
"Brother Zhang Xiao, I want to ask you to look after Little Meng while I’m gone."
"I can tell, you are a good man and genuinely want to treat Little Meng well."
"I..."
Zhang Xiaoshan did not know how to respond, but Xu Chihu added something even more shocking,
"I’ve been around the block and have seen all types of people. I can tell that my Little Meng genuinely likes you from her heart. In fact, it’s fine if you and Little Meng get together—even if you are a few years older than her, it’s acceptable."
"Even if you take her as a concubine, I can accept that."
"I have only one condition, regardless of the relationship or status, you must treat Little Meng well, protect her, and ensure she lives safely and joyfully for the rest of her life. That’s enough."
For someone like Xu Chihu, who had been through the underworld, he had a clear understanding of love between men and women.
Status means nothing; true love is what matters.
Zhang Xiaoshan stood up and walked to the window, looking outside.
He could see Xu Xiaomeng washing clothes in the yard.
What a kind and innocent girl.
"Have you told Little Meng about your plans?"
"No."
Xu Chihu said with a touch of sadness,
"Over the years, Little Meng and I have depended on each other. I know her character well, and I can’t tell her about these things because she would definitely not let me leave."
"Besides, once she knows the truth, she would be burdened for the rest of her life, living in pain."
"Leaving quietly is the best solution."
"You are the only person other than me whom Little Meng trusts, so I want to entrust her to you."
"Give me a year. If I’m alive, I will definitely send you a message. If you don’t hear from me within a year, I’m probably dead. I hope you and Little Meng can have a good outcome..."
Xu Chihu was very straightforward in his speech.
As long as Zhang Xiaoshan could take care of Xu Xiaomeng and ensure her safety and happiness, even if it led to them being together, it wouldn’t be a big issue to him.
Zhang Xiaoshan turned back to Xu Chihu and nodded.
"Uncle Xu, I can somewhat understand your feelings. I know I can’t stop you, so go ahead."
"I’ll take good care of Little Meng, but I don’t have many complicated thoughts. I just see Little Meng as a sister, and I care deeply about her."
"If you never return, I will find a good family for Little Meng and marry her off splendidly, ensuring her lifelong well-being."
"Good, I was right about you. Your words are enough."
"Please accept my bow."
Xu Chihu immediately knelt and bowed to Zhang Xiaoshan.
Zhang Xiaoshan, startled, quickly helped Xu Chihu up.
"Uncle Xu, this is too much. You’re going to seek revenge, and I can’t offer much help. Here, take these."
Zhang Xiaoshan pulled out a small bottle of Qi Blood Powder and gave it to Xu Chihu, explaining,
"This is a rare healing medicine; it should be of use to you."
"Alright, then I won’t be polite."
Xu Chihu accepted the items.
"Dad, are you guys done talking?"
Xu Xiaomeng’s anxious voice came from outside.
