Chapter: 4764

Ye Chen was straightforward and immediately took out his phone to find the Sunday flight from New York back home. He then quickly bought a ticket for her.

Ma Ran soon received the e-ticket information from the airline and felt happy seeing that the ticket had been confirmed, just like someone who has been away from home for many years finally gets the chance to return home.

Subsequently, Ma Ran carefully put away the necklace Ye Chen had given her and then said to the two: 'Oh dear, I also have an appointment with a friend, I'm already running late. You two lovebirds go off on your own for a while, and I'll leave first!'

Saying that, she didn't wait for their response before quickly changing into sports shoes and leaving the room."

After Ma Ran left, Xiao Chu Ruan had some doubts and said to Ye Chen: "Old husband, do you feel like my mom's condition seems a bit off-kilter?"

"Not off-kilter?" Ye Chen asked curiously. "What makes you think Mom's not quite right? I feel perfectly normal. She just has a homesickness-like feeling, that's all."

Xiao Chu Ruan nodded seriously and opened her mouth slightly with a serious expression: "It's not about returning home. It's about the necklace you gave Mom, which doesn't seem right to me."

"Necklace?" Ye Chen was even more puzzled: "That's a specialty store-bought one. It couldn't possibly be fake."

Xiao Chu Ruan said hastily: "Of course I wouldn't suspect you of buying counterfeit goods! I'm just saying that Mom's attitude towards the necklace doesn't seem right!"

As she spoke, she analyzed seriously: "Old husband, you should know my mom's personality best. But this person has a biggest flaw - they love to show off. Even if you gave her a valuable sofa, she'd want to carry it on the street. So when you gave her that expensive necklace, she didn't immediately put it on but instead stored it away... isn't that strange?"

Ye Chen listened to Xiao Chu Ruan's analysis and couldn't help but look at his silly old wife in a new light.

It seemed that Xiao Chu Ruan really understood her mom's character well. With Ma Ran's personality, she would never keep good things hidden.

So when Ma Ran just now carefully put away the necklace you gave her, this behavior was indeed unusual for her.

However, Ye Chen knew exactly why Ma Ran did it.

It's ultimately just because I said something earlier - things are better when they're new, and selling second-hand means they're worth more.

I estimate Ma Ran wouldn't dare wear it and would rather take it back to sell at a good price.

So Ye Chen chuckled and told Xiao Chu Ruan, "Mom probably thinks it's too late now, even if she wears it out, nobody would notice, and besides, she's going to participate in the roller derby, which requires more intense physical activity. It wouldn't be suitable for wearing jewelry, so you don't need to worry about it."

Xiao Chu Ruan shook her head seriously, saying, "I think things shouldn't be that simple. Let's wait and see if Ma Ran wears it tomorrow. If she doesn't wear it, I bet she wants to sell this necklace."

Ye Chen hadn't expected Xiao Chu Ruan to accurately predict what Ma Ran would do, so he chuckled and said, "Hey, don't worry too much about it. Since it's a gift for your mom, how she handles it is her own business. We have no right to interfere."

"In addition," Ye Chen said, "I think Mom wouldn't really do something like that. If I'm wrong, we can just wait until we get back home and see if the necklace is still there or not."

Xiao Chu Ruan couldn't help but let out a deep sigh, saying helplessly, "I don't want to interfere with her affairs either. However, she's the kind of person who does things that are really disappointing sometimes. This necklace, after all, was given to her by you. I hope she won't just sell it for gain."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, when we get back home, this necklace will definitely still be there."

Xiao Chu Ruan didn't know why Ye Chen was so confident, but since it was an assumption that was hard to discuss deeply, she simply nodded her head and sighed, saying, "I hope it's like that..."

At this moment, in New York, the Fee family.

Since the plane carrying Fee Ke Xin and Ye Chen took off from Hong Kong Island, Fee Jian Zhong has been pacing back and forth at home, eagerly awaiting, waiting for a whole day. JrNovels.com
