Chapter 849: No Other Extravagant Hopes

Chen Chaoxi lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said to General Chen:

"Dad, it's not that easy to bring my eldest brother back. Now Baihua City is no longer what it was before..."

“Is it easy or not???”

General Chen suddenly became excited and interrupted Chen Chaoxi. He stretched out a wrinkled finger and said angrily:

"Nothing is easy for you. Nothing is easy. This is not easy, that is not easy. Chen Chaoxi, oh Chen Chaoxi, did you have a plan long ago to kill all the members of the Chen family and then inherit your Chen family business?"

"Dad!" Chen Chaoxi couldn't help but yelled, "Am I that kind of person?"

"Then find your elder brother and Xiaofa's flesh and blood for me!!!"

After saying that, General Chen coughed, as if he couldn't breathe, and tried desperately to breathe. The sound of his breathing was as if his trachea was blocked, with a heavy noise. In the midst of Chen Chaoxi's shock, he staggered, then used all his strength to wave away Chen Chaoxi's hand that was about to help him, and said angrily:

"I don't need your help. Your elder brother and your younger brother's flesh and blood are still in Baihua City suffering, but you are sitting on the position of leader of the Kinmen base and doing nothing. What use do I have for you? Do I need you, my son, to piss me off to death???"

Outside the door, a medical staff member seemed to have heard the noise, hurried in, and helped General Chen to the bed to rest.

With the help of medical staff, his old and thin body walked slowly forward and brushed past Chen Chaoxi's arm. Chen Chaoxi stood straight, looking into the distance, with many requests in his eyes that he wanted to tell his old father, but he knew that his old father would not listen to his words.

At this time, Chen Chaoxi, who had been scolded, felt empty inside. He felt particularly uncomfortable, but suddenly he saw his father reaching out his hand to him. Chen Chaoxi felt warm in his heart and reached out, ready to take his father's hand.

As a result, General Chen's hand did not come to shake Chen Chaoxi's hand, but brushed past his hand and patted his shoulder directly. There was no father-son warmth at all. On the contrary, it was like a retired old leader admonishing a new young leader, saying earnestly: "Chen Chaoxi, you also have the blood of the Chen family flowing in your body. Don't think that now that you have become the leader, you can forget your ancestors and do things that disregard the lives of your brothers."

Those words were like a basin of ice water, pouring over Chen Chaoxi from head to toe. He looked at his father, wearing a military uniform decorated with general stars, passing by him. His old hands slid down his shoulders little by little. Chen Chaoxi's heart began to harden little by little, as hard as a rock.

He suddenly laughed at himself. He had lived in the Chen family for half a century, and he wanted the warmth between father and son? Who was Chen Chaoxi? He had already eliminated the warmth between father and son from his life. How could he have such a luxury today when he saw his father gasping for breath?

Chen Chaoxi turned around and saluted his father with a standard military salute with his posture straight. His father, no, General Chen, was a soldier worthy of respect.

This old general has been Chen Chaoxi's idol since childhood, but he is just an idol and he cannot have any other expectations.

Chen Chaoxi, you should never have any extravagant hopes.
