Rebirth Counterattack: I Heard That the Imperial Marshal Has a Crush on Me

By the time Chu Muxi and Lu Junzhi returned to the Central Star, things had basically settled.

The aircraft flew directly to Shen Garden, and Lu Junzhi escorted Chu Muxi to the door.

Chu Muxi: “I’ll go back to see grandpa first. Grandpa must have a lot of things to ask me.”

Lu Junzhi replied, “Okay, I’ll pick you up after you finish talking to grandpa,” straightening his collar.

Chu Muxi raised his eyebrows, saying, “You call him grandpa quite smoothly, but that’s my grandpa! Don’t call casually! My old man hasn’t recognized you as his grandson yet.”

Lu Junzhi gave him a deep look and said meaningfully, “Grandson? Isn’t I his grandson-in-law?”

Chu Muxi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and scolded, “Hey! You’re still saying you’re not possessed!” He pushed Lu Junzhi towards the aircraft while thinking, “Your character is ruined, Marshal Lu!”

Lu Junzhi smiled and touched his head. “I’ll pick you up later.”

“…Well, okay,” Chu Muxi replied, looking at him.

Lu Junzhi: “???”

Suddenly, Chu Muxi reached out and grabbed his arm, then stood up on tiptoes and kissed him on the face.

“Okay, go go! I’m going to – um!”

Lu Junzhi’s eyes dimmed, and he directly pressed him into his arms, kissing him so hard that Chu Muxi almost couldn’t breathe. After a moment, Lu Junzhi hugged him tightly and said in a hoarse voice, “If you do this again, I won’t let you go.”

Chu Muxi thought to himself, ‘Every day I suspect that the marshal is possessed, what should I do? Waiting online, urgent!’

“I’m going back first!” Chu Muxi coughed lightly and walked away.

.

While he was still on the starship, the communication device started ringing. He briefly explained the situation to Shen Wu and told him to call later. His grandpa who was concerned about him called again.

“No, grandpa, it’s all for acting. Brother Xu was also captured by real pirates before, and Junzhi has arranged for him to meet Uncle Xu on the resource planet,” Chu Muxi reassured Shen Wu.

Shen Wu hesitated to speak, but finally couldn’t help but ask cautiously, “Xiao Xi, are you really okay?”

After all, just a month ago, the father-son relationship between Chu Muxi and Chu Tianhao seemed to be very close.

Now Chu Tianhao was directly taken away by the picket team. Not to mention that the Chu family’s property was investigated and confiscated, Chu Tianhao would definitely never turn around again. His reputation had become so bad on Central Star that everyone spat and cursed when talking about him.

Shen Wu had already received calls from countless friends. Some were either comforting him, scolding Chu Tianhao, or feeling sorry for Shen Lan.

He didn’t care what happened to Chu Tianhao, nor did he care about the Chu family’s little money.

He only cared about his only grandson. After all, Chu Muxi still had a father-son relationship with Chu Tianhao. Now there were people on the Central Star deliberately smearing his reputation and scolding him, saying that like father, like son.

“Haha, let them be. The clown won’t be able to dance for long.” Chu Muxi didn’t care. “Grandpa, I won’t take any of Chu Tianhao’s money. Even if I don’t turn it over to the empire, I will donate it.”

He still felt disgusted when he thought about the dirty money.

“That’s right, we don’t want his dirty money. Grandpa’s family wealth will be yours from now on. We don’t want those bad things,” Shen Wu reassured him.

Chu Muxi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Grandpa, I didn’t mean that. Oh, forget it, let’s not talk about him. But Grandpa, I want to go back to the Chu family later.”

“Why go back?” Shen Wu asked, not sounding happy. “That place is unlucky. Don’t go there anymore!”

Chu Muxi reassured him, “Don’t worry, Grandpa, I just want to go there to pack some things. Mom still has some belongings there. I have to retrieve them all.”

When Shen Lan was mentioned, Shen Wu looked sad. “Oh, go ahead. I’ve wanted to retrieve your mother’s things for a long time.”

After Shen Lan passed away, because of Chu Tianhao, the relationship between her and Shen Wu worsened, and Shen Wu never set foot in the Chu family again.

Chu Muxi nodded heavily. “I don’t even want to ask for his things. But I will never leave anything of my mother’s behind.”
