Chapter: 4760
"Yes, yes, yes..." Ma Lan nodded hard and said, "You're right, Mom knows now!"
She quickly changed the subject and said, "Mom, let's not talk about that anymore. We have to get dressed and go to the street protest team meeting."
Just as Ma Lan was about to go back to her room to change, the door suddenly came up with a knock.
Ma Lan said somewhat unhappily, "Isn't the bell not ringing? How come it's still knocking on the door, what a nuisance!"
As she spoke, she cursed and cursed her way to the doorstep...
Ma Lan suddenly flung open the big door, just about to yell at someone outside for a few words, only to see Li Chen standing right outside, with an expression that instantly turned from gloomy to ecstatic. She exclaimed excitedly, "Ah, good son-in-law! When did you come back? Why didn't you even give me a heads-up?"
Li Chen smiled slightly and said, "I was afraid you'd worry so I didn't give you a head's up."
Ma Lan laughed with a smirk and said, "Mom knows, it's definitely to surprise Xiao Chu-ran!"
Inside, Xiao Chu-ran heard the commotion and walked towards the doorstep while opening her mouth to ask, "Mom, is Li Chen back?"
Ma Lan hurriedly turned around and shouted from inside, "Daughter, the son-in-law has come home, hurry up!"
As she spoke, she saw a service staff pushing a luggage cart behind Li Chen. Upon taking another look at the luggage cart, she noticed three large luggage boxes on it and couldn't help but ask excitedly, "Good son-in-law, I remember when you left, you didn't bring any luggage with you, how did you come back with so many things? Is it for mom's gift?"
Li Chen smiled and said, "Most of them are gifts from friends, some local specialties. But I also prepared a small gift for you."
Ma Lan heard there was a gift and immediately felt her excitement and curiosity growing.
She knew that Li Chen was now showing off his wealth to others, making it easy to earn money, so she couldn't help but think in her heart, "As long as Li Chen just puts out his hand, he'll definitely get something worth over 10,000 yuan."
At this moment, Li Chen had already led the service staff into the suite and was directing them to unload the luggage to one side.
The service staff carefully unloaded the luggage, and Li Chen handed the man a $100 bill as a tip. The man thanked him profusely and left.
Just then, Xiao Chu-ran happened to come over, saw Li Chen, and exclaimed happily, "How did you not give me a heads-up? I wanted to pick you up at the airport!"
Li Chen smiled and said, "If I had told you ahead of time, you would probably be worried during that period from takeoff to landing. So I decided not to tell you and planned to surprise you."
It was clear that Xiao Chu-ran was very happy to see Li Chen return, but she still couldn't help but remind him, "Husband, compared to the surprise you gave me, I would much rather drive myself to the airport to pick you up. Next time, please give me a heads-up, okay?"
Li Chen nodded and smiled, saying, "No problem, next time for sure."
As he spoke, Ye Cheng took out two necklaces he had bought in Hong Kong from his small luggage bag and handed the two jewelry boxes to Xiao Chunran and Ma Ran. He smiled and said, "Chunran, Mom, this is a little gift I got for you guys while I was in Hong Kong. Take a look."
Ma Ran heard these words and immediately reached out to take it, noticing that the packaging had Bulgari's logo on it. She thought to herself that this must be expensive, so she exclaimed happily, "Ah, my good son-in-law is the best! He always gets me international brands like Bulgari or Cartier. Next time, will he get me a Van Cleef & Arpels?"
Ye Cheng didn't expect Ma Ran to make such witty remarks at this moment.
It seemed that Ma Ran really wanted a Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry.
So, Ye Cheng smiled and said, "Mom likes Bulgari, so I'll buy it for you when I go out next time." JrNovels.com
