Chapter: 971

Paul's Mandarin is truly excellent, and if I close my eyes to listen, it's completely impossible to tell that he's an American speaking. Ye Chen was also extremely surprised and, as he shook hands with Paul, he couldn't help but praise him, saying, "Mr. Paul's Mandarin is absolutely flawless."

Paul smiled humbly and said, "Ye Chen is giving me too much credit!"

Xiao Changkun hastily said, "Right, Mei Qing! I've already booked a suite at the Shangri-La Hotel for us to go over there first and have dinner, so we can give you and your son some time to relax and freshen up!"

Mei Qing smiled sweetly and said, "I'm truly grateful to you both - you're coming all the way from afar to pick us up, and then inviting us to dinner...".

"Of course, of course!" Xiao Changkun laughed hurriedly and then urged, "Just in time! We've arrived by car, so let's go straight there!"

"Okay." Mei Qing nodded slightly and then said to Paul, "Son, tell your driver one more time that we won't be taking the company car. Let's take Uncle Xiao's car instead."

Paul smiled and said, "Alright, Mom. I'll call my driver and have him send all our luggage to the hotel room first."

"Okay!"

"Paul was polite to Xiao Changkun and Ye Chen, saying, 'Xiao Uncle, Ye Chen, wait for me a minute, I need to make a phone call, sorry!'"

Xiao Changkun hurriedly said, "Hey, Paul, you're too courteous, no need to be so polite with your uncle."

Paul chuckled and said, "That's right, that's right."

Having finished saying this, he only then pulled out his phone and walked away to make a call.

Xiao Changkun was curious and asked Mei Qing, "Mei Qing, you're taking your son back to the country, and you've already arranged for a driver in advance?"

Mei Qing nodded slightly and said, "After Paul's father passed away, I wasn't always thinking of returning to the country. But his father left behind a company, and Paul said he couldn't just give up on it. So we started gradually transferring our business to the country six months ago."

Xiao Changkun was astonished and asked, "You've already transferred all your industries to the country?"

"Yes," Mei Qing replied. "But I didn't really participate in these matters; they were all handled by Paul."

Xiao Changkun lightly nodded his head, feeling a little inferior inside.

With Mei Qing and her son returning to the country and even transferring their enterprise over, it's no wonder that they've gone to such great lengths. The scale of this company must be considerable. Looking at it now, Mei Qing's economic prowess is truly formidable.

Compared to others, I'm a bit self-conscious about myself. After all, the Xiao family has already gone bankrupt, and I have no source of income; I can even be described as having nothing on my hands. The only thing I can put out my hand for is the villa of You Cheng's brand, but this villa still belongs to someone else, Ye Chen.

Thinking about this, Xiao Changkun felt a bit uneasy in his heart.

As things stand now, will Han Mei Qing look down on me?

Having lived for half a lifetime, most middle-aged people have at least some career, industry, and family affairs. But I'm still nothing, which is too embarrassing!

Ye Chen also noticed the expression of Xiao Changkun's father looking somewhat uneasy, knowing that he was definitely thinking that Han Mei Qing is too good for him, and that he's not worthy enough, but he didn't point it out.

Just then, Paul finished his phone call and said with a smile: "Mom, Uncle Xiao, and Ye Chen brother, I've already told the driver to take us out."

"That's fine." Ye Chen smiled and said: "Then let's go." JrNovels.com
