My wife is too strong, Mr. Chu can't stand it

The living room fell into a brief silence. Chu Heng put down the vase and was quiet for a while before speaking, "Come with me to see Grandpa."

Chu Heng did not give Su Jin a chance to refuse. He stood up, grabbed Su Jin's wrist, and walked towards the elevator, going directly to Chu Yan'an's bedroom on the third floor.

Chu Yan'an was pruning branches on the upstairs balcony. He turned around when he heard the noise, but before he could greet anyone, he heard Chu Heng's voice.

"Grandpa, why did Great-Second Grandpa pass away?"

Chu Heng's words made Chu Yan'an tighten the pruning shears in his hand. His originally kind eyes suddenly darkened and his gaze shifted to Su Jin. "Why are you suddenly mentioning your Second Master Zeng?"

Chu Heng didn't mention Su Jin, but insisted on asking, "You said he was transporting antiques, and there was no news after he left."

Su Jin was also stunned for a moment. Transporting antiques, according to Chu Yanan's age, Chu Yanan's previous generation was indeed a person of that era.

Chu Yan'an pursed his lips, put down his pruning shears, and walked in from the balcony. His expression became extremely serious. "That was 36 years ago. Your great-grandfather was only in his early twenties back then. I also heard from my father that if there was a chance, we must find him. If he's alive, we must see him. If he's dead, we must collect his body and bury him in his hometown. It's been 88 years, and there's no direction. There's no place to find him at all."

After Chu Yanan finished speaking, he looked at Su Jin who was beside Chu Heng and said, "You shouldn't bring outsiders to ask."

Chu Heng wanted to say that Su Jin might know, but it was indeed better that the fewer people knew about Su Jin’s identity, the better.

Chu Heng could only say, "That imperial Tang Dynasty vase is fake. According to the time calculation, it should have been shipped abroad in 36. As long as we can find the real Tang Dynasty vase, we can find our great-grandfather."

Chu Yanan's eyes suddenly flashed with light, "What did you say?"

"For years, we've been searching for the antiques that were shipped abroad in 36, hoping to find the whereabouts of Second Grandfather Zeng. We've searched over and over again for possible routes. But if the antiques shipped abroad were fake, and Second Grandfather Zeng was transporting real ones, then that's not the route they took to get us out of the country. We're looking in the wrong direction."

Chu Heng frowned. The Chu family had been looking for him for decades, but all they had done were search routes from Beijing to foreign countries, and there was no news at all.

But Su Jin said that the antiques were fake and were really hidden. Is that possible?

Chu Yan'an also reacted. His chest was heaving violently with excitement and he almost couldn't breathe.

Chu Heng immediately stepped forward and smoothed his chest, then gave Chu Yan'an the medicine he had with him. He helped him sit down on the sofa, but his eyes were already on Su Jin.

He didn't know if this was a coincidence, but if it was really related to Su Jin, then the Chu family would be able to find the real antiques through Su Jin, and naturally find their relatives who were buried in a foreign land.

Su Jin finally understood what was going on. It seemed that the former elders of the Chu family had some relationship with him.

After all, it was a precious antique in that era, and if I didn't trust him, I wouldn't feel at ease.

Or perhaps the Chu family were soldiers at the time, responsible for protecting cultural relics and antiques from flowing out of the country.

But Su Jin didn't expect that more than eighty years had passed and it hadn't been discovered yet. Was he hiding too deeply?

Su Jin began to think about this problem. It should be hidden too deep. After all, there was war at that time. If it was not hidden well, it would be dug out. If it was not destroyed, it would be sold. Why let those foreigners get it cheap? It is better to bury it deep underground. You never know when it will be dug out.

Chu Heng saw that Su Jin hadn't spoken for a while, so he had to take care of Chu Yan'an first. He waited until Su Jin had recovered completely before speaking, "Grandpa, don't worry. Now that we have a new direction, we will definitely find it. It may be easier to find it in a place that was not affected by the war at that time."

Chu Yan'an nodded, held Chu Heng's arm and told him to find it.

Chu Heng didn't want to let Chu Yan'an know about Su Jin's condition, and he was afraid that Chu Yan'an would be upset again, so he helped Chu Yan'an lie down and rest. He took Su Jin to the study at the end of the corridor.

After boiling water, Chu Heng opened the tea cabinet and asked him, "What kind of tea do you like?"

Su Jin raised his eyes and glanced at him, "Mao Feng."

Chu Heng responded, brought over the Mao Feng tea, and started making tea after the water was boiled.

The Chu family used to be a prominent family, and Chu Yan'an had some influence on it, so the current Chu Heng is also very familiar with it.

After Su Jin received the tea, he waited for a while before taking a sip. He raised his eyebrows slightly and commented objectively, "Not bad."

Chu Heng smiled faintly. He really felt that Su Jin had the temperament of an antique, which was very different.

He took a sip himself, then asked him, "Have you thought of it? Where is it hidden?"

Su Jin raised her eyes, half holding the teacup in her hand, and lightly tapped the wall of the cup with her fingertips. "Now I have two questions."

"what is the problem?"

"First, if your great-grandfather was involved in the transportation, and I can now confirm that the items are hidden, then the mission is completed, and your great-grandfather should be returning."

Chu Heng's eyes darkened. "Could something have happened on the way? Were we ambushed?"

"That's possible. If that's the case, how are you going to find out? It happened 88 years ago. How many people would know about it now?"

Chu Heng lowered his eyes. He knew it was difficult, but he had reasons to look for it.

Su Jin didn't care when he was silent and continued, "Secondly, I vaguely remember that there was a lot of stuff in that shipment, which means a lot of people were involved in transporting it. You've been searching for so many years and there's no news, so it's very likely that the whole group was wiped out."

Su Jin held her chin in her hand and looked at him with a smile, "Generally, this kind of mission is carried out in batches to ensure the maximum protection of those things. If we leave, we will also be dispersed, so the chance of a group being wiped out is not high."

Chu Heng suddenly looked up and met Su Jin's gaze. "What do you mean?"

Su Jin raised an eyebrow. "Since it's about protection, who do you think can keep the secret?"

Chu Heng was shocked and looked at Su Jin in disbelief. Only the dead could keep a secret.

Su Jin was very satisfied with this look. He leaned back and answered without any emotion, "I might have killed them all."

After hearing the whole process, Xiao Jin suddenly stepped back and sat down on the ground, looking at Su Jin with horror on her face.

killed?

Kill them all?

But that is to protect cultural relics!

Besides, no matter how precious those things are, they can't be more precious than human life, right? How can they kill them all to silence them? Is this some kind of devil?

Su Jin turned her gaze over and silently admired Xiao Jin's fear, which was quite cute.

Su Jin couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, picked up the teacup and drank the remaining tea, then slowly turned her gaze back to Chu Heng.

There were some strange looks, from shock and anger to suspicion, and then gradually calmed down.

Su Jin raised her eyebrows in surprise, "I thought you were going to pounce on me and strangle me to death."

Chu Heng took a deep breath and suppressed his emotions. "You can fake the exchange and escort those things away, but you may not be able to kill to silence them. If you really did it, you wouldn't admit it to my face."

Xiao Jin looked at Chu Heng in confusion. What did he mean? Didn't Su Jin kill to silence the witness? Was he kidding them?
