KLBC: -chuq and Object?



vumnISqu'law' Qov 'ach ghaH vInuQnIS. (Is {nuQ} the right word for "to bother"?)

I just came across the following problem:
How do I say, e.g. "We told each other the story." 

In 4.2.1 TKD tells us to use the no-object-prefix when a verb has the suffix 
{-chuq}. But what do I say when a verb requires two objects (here: "each other" 
and "the story")? 
Can I just say: lut wIja'chuq   ?
Or maybe I need a relative clause: maja'chuqbogh 'oH lut'e' (The story is, what 
we told each other)   ?
Or is it something completely different?
