Chapter 2193: A Matter of Utmost Urgency

Twenty minutes later, Ye Chen and Xiao Churan met Ma Lan at the airport, who had been away for many days.

Seeing Xiao Churan and Ye Chen, Ma Lan was exceptionally excited and said joyfully, "Oh my, Churan, Ye Chen, Mom has missed you both to death during this time!"

Xiao Churan said with a smile, "I thought you were free and easy at home by yourself, and must have been very comfortable."

Ma Lan laughed, "Comfortable is comfortable, but staying alone all the time is really too lonely!"

As she spoke, she said with an annoyed face, "I forgot to exchange US dollars when I came to the United States this time, and I also forgot to bring my bank card. Do you have enough money?"

Xiao Churan didn't think much of it and said with a smile, "Mom, you came to the United States to find us, how could we let you spend your own money? Just stay here with peace of mind."

Ye Chen also interjected, "That's right, Mom. Since you're in the United States, we certainly can't let you spend your own money. Electronic payments aren't very convenient here in the US. Later, I'll give you a Visa credit card and get you some cash."

As he spoke, Ye Chen added, "By the way, Mom, public security here in the US isn't very good. You must never carry too much cash on you when you go out."

Upon hearing that Ye Chen was going to give her a card and cash, Ma Lan's eyes lit up with excitement, and she said excitedly, "You truly are a good son-in-law! No wonder people say a son-in-law is half a son! Having a son-in-law as filial as you is even more reliable than giving birth to a son myself!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, noncommittal.

He understood Ma Lan's personality too well. Don't look at how she could be so sharp-tongued that she'd want to poke a hole in the sky; as long as you gave her a little favor, her attitude would immediately undergo a 180-degree turn.

Therefore, being able to handle Ma Lan with a little money was, for Ye Chen, a very cost-effective deal.

Afterwards, the two drove Ma Lan to the hotel.

When Ma Lan entered the presidential suite, she was so shocked she couldn't speak.

She ran around the room a few times but couldn't figure out the layout of the entire suite, so she kept exclaiming, "My goodness, this presidential suite is too big! You two have been living here for so many days? What a waste!"

Xiao Churan said helplessly, "I didn't know Ye Chen had booked such a large room either; it really is too wasteful..."

Ye Chen smiled at this moment, "It's fine. Isn't the point of earning money to spend it? Besides, this expense isn't considered high. The income from one feng shui consultation is enough to live here for several months."

Ma Lan was grinning from ear to ear, praising, "My son-in-law is still the best! It's like this money was blown in by a strong wind!"

Xiao Churan hurriedly said, "Mom, it's not easy for Ye Chen to earn money, running around everywhere. A few days ago, he was often going to New York to consult on feng shui."

"Whoa!" Ma Lan exclaimed, "My good son-in-law has business in the US too? That's truly amazing!"

Ye Chen said casually, "It's all through introductions from friends. Because they trust me, they keep introducing new clients to me. Generally, as long as it's a client introduced by a friend, I try to take it on. It's not just for the money, but also because I can't refuse a friend's face. Otherwise, if a friend kindly introduces me to their client and I refuse the order, that friend would be in a very difficult position in the middle."

Ma Lan nodded in strong agreement and said, "My good son-in-law is right. People introduce clients to us out of respect for us. Not only can we not refuse, but we must also serve them well so they can introduce even more clients to us!"

Xiao Churan said helplessly, "Honey, you should tell your friends to introduce fewer clients to you in the future so you can be more relaxed."

Before Ye Chen could speak, Ma Lan blurted out, "Good son-in-law, you're so young, you can't just think about being relaxed! Don't listen to Churan. Young people must have a positive, striving heart. How can you just lie flat in your twenties? In modern society, money is hard to earn and life is hard; earning more money for your bank account is the most important thing!"

Xiao Churan said, "Mom, I meant for Ye Chen to take fewer orders, I didn't say he should lie flat..."

Ma Lan said seriously, "Earning more money while you're young is the right path. If you don't work hard when you're young, it will be too late when you're old! Don't be like your dad, living his whole life in a muddle!"

Xiao Churan suddenly didn't know how to refute.

At this moment, Ye Chen suddenly received a call from Wan Pojun.

So, he immediately pressed the answer button and said, "Hello, Mr. Wan."

Wan Pojun on the other end of the phone immediately said, "Hello, may I ask if this is Master Ye Chen? I was introduced by Chen Zong. I would like to invite you to consult on feng shui for my family."

Ye Chen hurriedly said, "Oh, so you're a friend of Chen Zong! Hello, hello! I wonder what the situation is with your family?" ===== CHAPTER 2194 =====
