Chapter 1527: Happy Birthday!

Originally, the family was happily waiting for twelve o'clock to arrive, but Xiao Changkun didn't expect that he couldn't hold back his mood and showed off, only to have Ma Lan take away all his future income.

While he was heartbroken deep in his heart, he also began to reflect on why he was repeatedly defeated by Ma Lan.

He found that Ma Lan had this ability. She seemed simple-minded, just relying on a shameless and shrewish energy, but in fact, Ma Lan could always find the most precise point on him and hold him firmly.

Recalling these twenty-plus years of married life, Xiao Changkun felt a sense of despair, because in these twenty-plus years, he had never won against Ma Lan. He had been eaten to death by Ma Lan for half his life, with no room for resistance at all.

Seeing that Xiao Changkun was a bit dejected, while Ma Lan on the side looked proud, Ye Chen sighed silently. He felt more and more that his father-in-law was like mud that couldn't support the wall.

This timid middle-aged man had no ability, limited level, couldn't hide things in his heart, was easily complacent, and a bigger problem was that he had always lacked courage. Looking at it this way, he was afraid that he would never escape Ma Lan's nightmare in his life.

Xiao Churan also saw that her father was in a low mood, so she hurriedly changed the subject and said to Ye Chen: "By the way, husband, Mom just said that when her leg is better, she wants you to take her to experience a yacht. I don't know if it's convenient for you?"

"Convenient." Ye Chen agreed casually and said: "When Mom's leg is better and the weather is warmer, we will go out to sea for a spin."

As soon as Ma Lan heard this, she was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Oh, that's really great! I have lived for so many years and have never been on a private yacht!"

Ma Lan, who was overjoyed, blurted out: "By the way, when we sail out to sea, can we go all the way south to Nanhai Island for a spin?!"

Ye Chen nodded and said: "No problem. It's not far from the estuary to Nanhai. At most, it's two thousand kilometers. With a yacht, it will take at most two or three days."

Ma Lan was immediately excited, clapped her hands and said: "That's great, that's great! I have never been to Nanhai either. A few years ago, when winter came, Old Mrs. Xiao would arrange to go to Nanhai for the winter, but she only took Xiao Changgan's family every time and never let us follow. Thinking about it makes me angry!"

After saying this, Ma Lan began to take out her phone and study the famous scenic spots and delicacies in Nanhai.

The family chatted casually, and the time had already reached 12 o'clock in the morning.

At 11:59, Xiao Churan took out her phone and silently counted down. At exactly 12 o'clock, she put down her phone and said softly to Ye Chen, who was sitting beside her: "Husband, it's twelve o'clock. Happy birthday to you!"

Ye Chen laughed: "Thank you, wife!"

Ma Lan also hurriedly echoed: "Happy birthday, good son-in-law! Mom wishes you rolling wealth and a big fortune in the future!"

Xiao Changkun was a bit dejected, but still cheered up and said: "Ye Chen, Dad wishes you a happy birthday, may you have this day every year and this morning every year!"

Ye Chen thanked the old enemies one by one, and his phone began to vibrate constantly, with various text messages and WeChat messages, receiving more than dozens in a row.

He opened his phone and saw that many friends had sent him birthday wishes at this time. Chen Zekai, Hong Wu, and Qin Gang went without saying. Song Wanting, Qin Aoxue, Chen Xiaozhao, Dong Ruolin, Wang Dongxue, and Ito Nanako also sent messages wishing him a happy birthday.

In addition, Gu Yanzhong and his wife, Du Haiqing and Su Zhiyu, He Yuanjiang and He Zhichiu, also sent messages of blessing.

Ye Chen didn't expect that even Xiao Weiwei sent a blessing text message, and also thanked Ye Chen for his help during this period.

However, the one person Ye Chen didn't expect was his grandfather, Ye Zhongquan.

Even this elderly man kept the time of 12 o'clock and sent a message on time to wish him a happy birthday, which Ye Chen didn't expect.

And his aunt, Ye Changmin, who had suffered a lot in front of him, actually sent a message wishing Ye Chen a happy birthday and apologizing for her previous actions, hoping to get Ye Chen's forgiveness.

Xiao Churan saw Ye Chen constantly receiving various messages and couldn't help but be surprised. She didn't look at the content of these messages, just guessed that these people who sent messages should be Ye Chen's clients.

Ma Lan, sitting opposite, saw Ye Chen constantly receiving various messages and couldn't help but sigh with a smile: "Oh, my good son-in-law, your popularity is really good now. So many people are waiting for 12 o'clock to wish you a birthday. They should all be your clients. Looking at it this way, your business this year must be better than last year!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "Actually, they are all old clients, just that after a long time, they have become friends."

Saying this, Ye Chen replied thank you to everyone who sent messages. Even for Ye Changmin, he politely replied with the two words thank you.

Subsequently, he said to Xiao Changkun and Ma Lan: "Dad, Mom, it's getting late, you should go back to your rooms to rest early."

Ma Lan nodded and yawned: "Oh, I'm really a bit sleepy. As I get older, I can't stay up late."

After saying this, she turned to Xiao Changkun and said: "Help me, send me back to my room."

Xiao Changkun didn't dare to make a sound, reached out to help Ma Lan, and accompanied her into the elevator.

Xiao Churan saw the two enter the elevator and couldn't help but ask Ye Chen: "Husband, do you think my parents can return to how they were?"

Ye Chen laughed twice: "This kind of thing, who can say?"

Xiao Churan asked in a low voice: "What is the situation between Dad and that Auntie Han now? After Dad cried and complained so much in the car last time, I was embarrassed to ask him about these things again..."

Ye Chen smiled slightly: "I don't know about this recently either, but I feel it will be clear soon."

Xiao Churan asked nervously: "Husband, what do you mean by it will be clear soon?"

Ye Chen thought of He Yuanjiang and said indifferently: "I can't say for sure now, but if there is any result, I will tell you as soon as possible."

Xiao Churan nodded helplessly: "Alright then..."

Saying this, she couldn't help but sigh and said: "To be honest, ever since Dad told me about him, Mom, and that Auntie Han last time, I have really sympathized with him. But Mom gave birth to me and raised me after all. If they really want to divorce because of that Auntie Han, I'm afraid Mom will be too pitiful alone in the future..."

Ye Chen smiled, held Xiao Churan's hand, and said earnestly: "Even if Mom and Dad really divorce, don't we still have Mom? Let them handle their own affairs. We, as children, only need to support the decisions they make themselves."

Speaking of this, Ye Chen comforted: "You see, many young people don't want their parents to interfere in their private lives, let alone parents. So we don't need to worry too much."

Xiao Churan nodded gently, as if she was relieved at this moment, so she held Ye Chen's arm and said: "Okay, then listen to you, let them make their own decisions, let's go back to the room to rest." ===== CHAPTER 1528 =====
