Chapter: 5021

Xiu Chunran's heart was filled with joy, and she quickly suggested, "Mom, why don't you hurry back to Leaf and come with him? I've been worried sick about you!"

Ma Lan hesitated, looking embarrassed, and said, "Well... actually, Mom doesn't want to go to Providence anymore. There's not much point there, so let's just stay in New York for a few days. Plus, the friend I met in jail is also free today, and she invited me to stay in New York for a few days."

Xiu Chunran listened to this and almost immediately refused, saying, "Mom, you mustn't believe strangers again! How did you get into jail? Haven't you thought about it yourself? Those people outside are all fake friends trying to use you!"

Ma Lan explained, "Oh, no way, Initial. The friend I met in jail is a really genuine person. She's also been wrongfully imprisoned like me."

As Ma Lan spoke, she told the story of that fellow inmate she had met in prison, sighing and saying, "You know how this sister ended up in jail? It's because she was selling fresh crab to Chinese Americans in America, but then some fool didn't buy it and reported her to the authorities. She got sent to prison and even had to pay a fine! What kind of world is this where there are people like that?"

Xiu Chunran was also puzzled, but she still expressed concern, saying, "Mom, you've just been released from jail, I really can't bear the thought of you being alone in New York. How about you come with Leaf and return to Providence together?"

"Ma Lan spoke firmly, 'Oh no, Initial! You have to believe me! This time there's absolutely no problem with that person. Take a deep breath. Can your mom still be deceived by anything?'"

As Ma Lan spoke, she was afraid Xiu Chunran might not agree, so she said stubbornly, "Regardless, I've already promised that sister that I'll spend a few days in New York and play well!'"

Xiu Chunran helplessly opened her mouth, saying, "Mom, then give Leaf the phone!"

"Okay." Ma Lan quickly handed over her phone to Leaf, and then gave him a nod.

Leaf took the phone and said, "Hello, wife."

On the other end of the phone, Xiu Chunran asked, "Have you seen that friend Mom mentioned? Is she reliable?"

Leaf, trying to cooperate with Ma Lan, could only say casually, "I've seen her, and she seems very reliable. Besides, I've also asked some customers in New York for help, so Mom will definitely be fine here. You can just relax."

After hearing Leaf's words, Xiu Chunran finally relaxed a little, but still said helplessly, "Alright then. Since my mom is the kind of person who only does what she decides to do, no matter how hard you try, eight horses cannot pull her back. Since you think she's reliable, I won't argue with her..."

As Xiu Chunran spoke again, "Old man, this time was really too tiring for you. You rushed ahead and behind, taking care of my mom's trouble. Thank you!"

Leaf smiled slightly and said softly, "Wife, do you need to be so polite with me? Besides, your mom is my mother-in-law, which is my responsibility."

Xiu Chunran nodded lightly and asked him, "Old husband, when do you plan to come back?"

Leaf thought to himself, his current task in New York was already complete, and it was time for him to go back and take care of Xiu Chunran. He opened his mouth and said, "I'll be back soon, just a few hours away by car."

Xiu Chunran reminded him, "Oh, don't forget to properly thank that client of yours, I'm sure they've been quite worried helping you out these past few days. Why not invite them over for dinner tonight? If time allows, we can eat first and then head back; if it doesn't, tomorrow morning is also fine. We can't let others think we're being impolite."

Leaf wasn't planning to ask Fee to have dinner, but since Xiu Chunran said so, he decided to go ahead and brief Hong Wu and Chen Ze Kai about the situation first, asking them to temporarily remain at the White Gold Palace in New York.

So, he turned to Xiu Chunran and said, "Okay, I'll take care of it. As soon as I'm done, I'll head back right away."

Leaf hung up the phone and told Ma Ran, "Mom, you just rest well for a few days. I'll go see that client and then come back to be with Xiu Chunran."

"Go ahead, go ahead!" Ma Ran laughed. "Mom will definitely be taken good care of here. You don't need to worry about Mom!"

Leaf didn't worry about Ma Ran.

The treatment Fee's hospital gave to Ma Ran was basically the highest level of treatment reserved for core family members like themselves. JrNovels.com
