Chapter: 5192

Xiao Changkun looked miserable and said, "You're talking like it's no big deal, but don't you know how important this trip was for me? If I had done well, my whole life would have been rewritten. Now that they've written their own story, I'll just be a footnote..."

Ma Ran saw Xiao Changkun looking so dejected and got furious, scolding him, "I don't care about your embarrassment in Korea or how big an impression you made. You have to clean up this living room right now, spotless, not a single speck of dust! If I don't see it spotless when I wake up tomorrow, I'll make sure you pay attention!"

After that, she got angry and started messing with the wheelchair controls, then went upstairs to her own room.

Xiao Changkun also complained, "Dad, you're really something else. The painting association is just a hobby for you, so even if this trip didn't go well, it's no big deal. Why are you beating yourself up like this? You know how easy it is to have an accident when you're alone at home, drinking and smoking so much?"

Xiao Changkun looked miserable and said, "You don't understand, my heart is really troubled. If I didn't drink and smoke a bit, I'd probably develop depression..."

Just as Xiao Changkun was about to say more, Leaf Chen suddenly reminded him, "Honey, the wife just went upstairs alone, she's not mobile-friendly, you should go take care of her and help with anything she needs, Dad is taken care of here."

Xiao Chunran's expression changed suddenly, thinking about mom breaking her leg and sitting in a wheelchair. She quickly said, "I'll go take a look first, you take care of Dad here."

She then turned to Xiao Changkun and said, "Dad, no matter what, from now on you're not allowed to smoke or drink anymore."

Xiao Changkun's face was sullen to the extreme. Just as he thought about arguing with his daughter, he looked at Leaf Chen beside him and decided not to say anything more, so he turned to Xiao Chunran and said, "Okay, okay, I know. You'd better go take a look at mom right away, how is she?"

"It is...," Xiao Chunran sighed, "Mom got hurt in New York while playing, and the old injury flared up again."

"Oh no." Xiao Changkun snorted with contempt, saying, "What old injury? I bet your mom must have annoyed someone and got hit back. I still don't understand her."

Xiao Chunran looked serious and said, "Dad, please stop talking nonsense. Mom has been through a lot recently. Maybe I'll tell you more about it later. For now, I'll go take a look at her."

After saying that, Xiao Chunran quickly went up to the third floor.

When Xiao Chunran left, Xiao Changkun's eyes turned red and his face was full of regret as he looked at Leaf Chen, unable to control his sobbing. "Leaf Chen... my good son-in-law... Dad is single again..."

"Uh..." Leaf Chen shook his head helplessly, asking him, "Dad, when did you fall in love? With whom? I didn't know about it."

"Certainly with no one." Xiao Changkun wiped away his tears and sobbed, "Of course, it's your beautiful wife, Mrs. Han!"

Leaf Chen furrowed his brows and asked, "Don't you two know each other? When did you start being together?"

Xiao Changkun hurriedly explained, "We're not together. I'm still married to your mom, so..."

Leaf Chen shrugged in resignation, "Even if we're not together, what's the point of losing that kind of love?"

Xiao Changkun felt as though he had been insulted and hastily reddened his face while trying to reason with him, "We've always had each other in our hearts!"

You remember when my son Paul and I came to your place for dinner right after she returned from abroad?

"Yes, I remember."

Leaf Chen casually added, "That time wasn't it just a reunion among old friends? What was special about it?"

Xiao Changkun spoke seriously, "Of course there was something special! That day in the kitchen, I confessed my feelings to her! Not only that, but I also hugged her! She hugged me back!"

"Really?" Leaf Chen asked curiously, "Then what happened? Did you two get together?" JrNovels.com
