Return as the king, but only want to protect her

Dusk deepened. In the bitterly cold northern lands, a military green jeep sped along a white, snowy road, sending up gusts of snow. A young man in the back seat rubbed his reddened eyes imperceptibly. Behind the jeep, a sea of ​​people, all dressed in uniform military green combat uniforms, stretched endlessly as far as the eye could see. At that moment, they all held their fingers together, their middle fingers touching their temples at eyebrow level, their moist eyes fixed on the receding jeep. "Farewell, God of War!" "Farewell, God of War!" ... Suddenly, everyone roared in unison, like waves, shaking the heavens and earth. The driver, a large man named Ma Chao, glanced at the young man in the rearview mirror with red eyes, and said with reluctance, "Guardian, are you really leaving?" The young man's real name was Yang Chen. In just five years of military service, he had already achieved remarkable feats and achievements. At the age of twenty-seven, he had become the youngest guardian in history, guarding the northern borders of Kyushu. After becoming a guardian, he racked up countless military exploits, earning him the title of the Undefeated God of War! "The Northern Territory has now become an invincible city. Who else dares to challenge it?" Yang Chen finished, pulling out a photo of them in white clothes with a red background. It turned out to be a marriage certificate photo. The photo showed him and a woman with exquisite features. She looked to be in her early twenties, with long hair neatly tied back. Her almond eyes were radiant, her nose was high, and her mouth was plump. At first glance, she was more beautiful than those so-called celebrities. However, in the photo, she looked unhappy. "Qin Xi, are you okay?" Yang Chen murmured, staring at the stunning woman in the photo. Looking at their only photo together, a hint of happiness played on his lips, his thoughts already drifting back to the past. Five years ago, Qin Xi, a recent senior in college, founded the Sanhe Group and became a renowned CEO in Jiangzhou. At the height of Sanhe Group's development, she was framed, drugged, and forced to have s*x with a Sanhe security guard. And this "lucky" security guard was Yang Chen. "Jiangzhou's most beautiful woman slept with a company security guard!" Before Yang Chen and Qin Xi had even left the hotel, the news had already topped the Jiangzhou headlines, reprinted by countless media outlets. Suddenly, everyone in Jiangzhou, from the wealthy to the common people, knew that the most beautiful woman in Jiangzhou had slept with a company security guard. Overnight, Sanhe Group's market value evaporated by half. To minimize the impact, the Qin family approached Yang Chen and offered him a son-in-law. News of their marriage spread like wildfire, shocking the entire Jiangzhou and turning the Qin family into a laughingstock. However, shortly after their wedding, Yang Chen quietly left, hoping that one day he would be worthy of Qin Xi. For five years, that stunning figure had constantly appeared in his mind, the driving force that had driven him to the pinnacle of glory. However, whenever he thought of this woman, Yang Chen's heart was filled with guilt. ... Three days later, a Boeing 747 slowly landed at Jiangzhou International Airport. "Finally, I'm back!" Yang Chen stepped down the ladder and onto the land of Jiangzhou, a long-lost smile on his face. "Wow! Mom, where are you?" Yang Chen had just stepped out of the airport when he heard the clear cry of a little girl. For some reason, his heart suddenly tightened. "Guardian..." Ma Chao was about to speak, but was interrupted by Yang Chen: "From the moment I left the Northern Territory, I'm no longer a Guardian. That title is no longer allowed!" Looking at Yang Chen's serious face, Ma Chao couldn't help but tremble. He tentatively called out, "Brother Chen?" Seeing Yang Chen didn't respond, he smiled and said, "Brother Chen, that little girl looks a lot like you. Could you be related?" Yang Chen subconsciously glanced at the little girl, and once he did, he couldn't look away. A strong sense of familiarity washed over him. Especially the way the little girl cried, his heart seemed to ache. As if sensing something, the little girl suddenly stopped crying and looked at Yang Chen with tearful eyes. The two adults and two children met eyes, allowing Yang Chen to see the little girl's face more clearly, and the inexplicable sense of closeness intensified. A delicate little face, as delicate as jade, with soft, rosy skin as smooth as mutton-fat jade, big, watery eyes fluttering, and long eyelashes stained with tears. The little girl was only about four years old. Although still young, she was already a beauty. When she grew up, she would definitely be a little devil who would bring disaster to the country and the people. "Daddy!" The little girl suddenly called out. Before Yang Chen could react, the little girl had already run over with a face full of joy and hugged his legs. Boom! At that moment, Yang Chen felt a buzzing in his head. Ma Chao, standing by, was also stunned, his mouth moving, "Could this really be Brother Chen's daughter?" It took a long moment for Yang Chen to come back to his senses. He squatted down, looking at the little girl who was staring at him with her big, blinking eyes. He said as softly as he could, "Little girl, you've got the wrong person. I'm not your father!" "Wow!" As soon as Yang Chen finished speaking, the little girl burst into tears again, crying, "Daddy doesn't want me anymore! Daddy doesn't want me anymore!" Passersby looked sideways, pointing at Yang Chen. Seeing the little girl crying again, Yang Chen felt his heart break, and for a moment he was at a loss. He was the guardian of the Northern Territory, feared by countless people, but now he was at a loss in front of a four or five-year-old child. If word got out, it would probably shock many people. "Little girl, I'm really not your father!" "Wow... Daddy doesn't want me anymore..." Every time Yang Chen spoke, the little girl's tears grew stronger. Five minutes later, Yang Chen, sweat dripping from his forehead, finally gave in and gently picked up the little girl. The little girl's tear-filled eyes kept staring at Yang Chen. From beginning to end, her small hands tightly grasped Yang Chen's clothes, afraid that he would abandon her. "Brother Chen, since this little girl likes you so much, why don't you really be her father?" Ma Chao said with a smile, but when he saw Yang Chen's sharp eyes looking at him, he immediately shut his mouth. Helplessly, Yang Chen carried the little girl to the airport security office. The little girl cried again, but Yang Chen still reluctantly took Ma Chao away. However, just as the two of them left, a long-haired woman in a black tight-fitting business suit hurriedly ran to the airport security office. "Xiaoxiao!" When she saw the crying little girl, tears immediately streamed down her face. She rushed over and hugged her tightly, unwilling to let go. To her, the little girl was her life. Five years ago, shortly after her wedding, she found herself pregnant, and the man she had been with suddenly disappeared. Her mother told her that he had asked her father for half a million yuan and left. At that time, she nearly committed suicide, but the thought of the little life in her belly kept her going. For five years, she had suffered endless humiliation, even the business she had founded was taken away from her family while she was pregnant. All of this was caused by that man. She hated him, the man who had left without saying goodbye and disappeared for five years. "Mom, Xiaoxiao saw Daddy!" the little girl said, her bright eyes blinking. Then, her lips curled, and she was about to cry again: "But Daddy doesn't want me anymore!" Hearing the little girl's words, the long-haired woman trembled violently, as if struck by lightning, her eyes glazing over.
