Chapter 2416

Because he was nervous and uneasy, Su Shoudao, who had been somewhat muddled, only just discovered that He Yingxiu, who had lost her right arm for over twenty years, had actually become a normal person with both arms intact!

In this instant, he still thought He Yingxiu was wearing some kind of advanced prosthetic.

So he subconsciously said, "This... which country is this prosthetic from? This... this is too realistic!"

He Yingxiu said gratefully, "This isn't a prosthetic... Mr. Ye gave me a medicinal pill, and after taking it, my arm grew back..."

"What?!" Su Shoudao asked, dumbfounded, "Grew back?! This... how is this possible?"

Su Ruoli reminded him from the side, "Dad, you witnessed Mr. Ye's supernatural powers on Mount Ye Ling, so you cannot measure his abilities with our limited common sense."

Su Shoudao's expression froze instantly, and he immediately recalled everything he had seen on Mount Ye Ling that day.

The unimaginably powerful Wan Pojun had been defeated in a single blow before Ye Chen.

And two of the four Great Battle Kings of the Wanlong Palace had also died with ease.

Ye Chen's strength and ability were indeed beyond his understanding.

Therefore, being able to produce a pill that could regrow severed limbs didn't seem so incomprehensible after all.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected that our whole family would receive Mr. Ye's grace..."

He Yingxiu nodded gently and said, "Young Master, please get up first; I want to go thank Mr. Ye!"

"Right, right, right!" Su Shoudao was completely convinced. He hurriedly picked up the roses, handed them to He Yingxiu, and said earnestly, "Let's go thank Mr. Ye together..."

Ye Chen, who was in the living room, heard the conversation of the three and, without waiting for them to come out, immediately stood up and said loudly, "The three of you should have a good catch-up; I'm going back to my room first."

Having said that, he walked out.

Su Ruoli hurriedly chased after him, but Ye Chen had already left.

She hesitated for a second or two, then chased out the door and called out to Ye Chen's back, "Mr. Ye..."

Ye Chen turned his head, looked at Su Ruoli, and said, "Don't say anything else. Tomorrow, you accompany them back first. I believe your grandfather and the others will be very happy to hear this good news; why not go back and give them a surprise? Also, after I return to the country, I will hold a wedding for your parents at the Bai Jinhangong. If you, as their daughter, have any ideas or creative thoughts, you can find a wedding planning company to start communicating in advance."

Su Ruoli was incredibly moved and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Ye, can Ruoli stay behind to await your orders? You must still have many places here where you need people!"

Ye Chen waved his hand and said, "Old Chen and Hong Wu are still here, so you don't need to stay. Go back and accompany your parents. From today on, you are finally a proper family of three."

As he spoke, Ye Chen added, "Oh, right, you should still sleep at my place tonight. I have plenty of rooms there; you can choose any one, and give those two some private space."

Su Ruoli stuck out her tongue, closed the door, ran toward Ye Chen on tiptoe, and said with a smile, "I think I'd better not stay and be a third wheel..."

That night, many people were sleepless because of their joy.

Ito Yuhiko was lying on his hotel bed, pedaling an 'air bicycle' in the air while staring at the chandelier and giggling foolishly.

He loved the feeling of having his legs back too much; if he weren't afraid of making his daughter angry, he would have loved to run three laps around all of New York.

Tanaka Koichi was the same.

He couldn't lie in bed for more than five minutes without being unable to resist getting down to walk a few laps, then putting his legs on the table to look at them and touch them carefully. That wide, grinning mouth of his never closed from start to finish.

He Yingxiu didn't have much of a chance to carefully experience the feeling of having her right hand back, because Su Shoudao had already impatiently carried her to the bedroom, where the two revisited the passion of their youth after more than twenty years apart.

As for Li Yalin, who had been the first to take the Reshaping Pill, he returned to his home in Houston with his wife, daughter, and son-in-law on the An family's private jet.

Ever since Fei Kexin had vouched for him, his image in the eyes of his family was comparable to a superhero.

In his earlier years, his wife and daughter lived with him in New York. At that time, he was completely devoted to his work and rarely asked about his wife and children.

Moreover, due to his identity as a police officer, he was quite strict with his wife and daughter on a daily basis, creating a very oppressive atmosphere at home without even realizing it.

Later, his relationship with his family became increasingly strained. When his daughter was in college, she specifically gave up schools in New York and chose to study in Houston, just to get further away from him so she could breathe a sigh of relief.

His wife also took the opportunity to accompany their daughter to study in Houston, beginning a de facto separation from him.

Fortunately, the two had always just been separated and hadn't reached the point of needing a divorce.

Li Yalin's daughter was not outstanding in her studies and was relatively rebellious in her youth. It just so happened that her father was a decisive and efficient detective who was stricter than the average parent, so although she struggled desperately, her rebellion never had a chance to surface.

Don't look at the fact that Li Yalin had lived in the United States for most of his life; deep down, he was a thorough Chinese-style parent. His approach to his daughter's education could be summarized in eight words: "excessive interference, strict restraint."

Because of the high pressure he brought, his daughter went from being rebellious to having a relatively decadent aversion to learning. It was precisely because of this that the relationship between father and daughter had never eased.

Before Li Yalin retired, his income was roughly four to five hundred thousand US dollars a year.

Although this income level was not low, it firmly welded his family's social status to the middle class. At best, they were free from worry about food and clothing, but to say they were wealthy was not really the case.

His daughter married last year to a young Chinese man who graduated from a prestigious university and worked at NASA.

Although his son-in-law had some talent, his aspirations were too high, and because he wasn't highly valued at NASA and even faced some exclusion and discrimination, he was often quite frustrated.

Li Yalin understood his son-in-law quite well. He was an aerospace professional with solid academic qualifications and technical skills, but because of his Chinese heritage and lack of connections or background, he had always been suppressed at NASA.

In fact, Li Yalin had been the same when he first became a detective.

Within the American police system, although ethnic minorities rarely faced obvious discrimination, the suppression of the general environment was everywhere.

Most minority police officers held relatively grassroots jobs; if they wanted to climb up, they had to put in far more effort than others.

After returning home, Li Yalin left his family in the living room and said with great emotion, "It wasn't easy to come back; let's have a meeting with everyone first."

His wife, daughter, and son-in-law all agreed without hesitation and sat on either side of Li Yalin.

Li Yalin took out the ten-million-dollar check Fei Kexin had given him from his pocket and said, "Regarding this money, my current thought is to leave it all to the baby in Yuanyuan's belly and set up a family trust for him."

His daughter hurriedly said, "Dad, the child hasn't been born yet; you don't need to think so far ahead for him..."

Li Yalin said seriously, "This is something I must consider. Before, it was because I thought too little of you all that our family's relationship became so distant. Besides, I'm not doing this for you, but for your child and his future children..."

As he spoke, he sighed, "After having more contact with your Uncle An and his family, I understood a principle: the reason why wealthy people in the West can remain rich is that their asset inheritance focuses more on contracts rather than blind succession. So, starting from the baby in your belly, we will also set up a family trust and invest all ten million dollars into it. Before the child turns eighteen, all this money will be used for the lowest-risk investments. By the time he is eighteen, it should at least double."

Li Yalin's son-in-law couldn't help but speak up at this moment, "Dad... there is something I've been wanting to find an opportunity to tell you on the way back. Please don't be angry with me when I say it..."

Li Yalin looked at his son-in-law and nodded, "Xiao Sun, go ahead."

The son-in-law hesitated for a moment, then bit the bullet and said, "When we were at the Anbang Building, Mr. An Chongqiu of the An family talked to me. He said the An family is willing to put up one hundred million US dollars to set up a trust for the child Yuanyuan and I are having. The condition is that if the child in Yuanyuan's belly is a boy, he must take Yuanyuan's surname, Li. If it's a girl, we can choose to have her take the surname Li, or wait until we have another boy and let the boy take the surname Li..."

Li Yalin and his wife and daughter were all startled.

Li Yalin felt even more guilty. He didn't expect An Chongqiu to have spoken to his son-in-law about this privately. He hurriedly said, "Xiao Sun, don't be angry. Your Uncle An told you these things mainly because your Grandpa An is a bit old-fashioned. Please don't take it to heart, and don't blame him in your heart..."

"No..." the son-in-law said awkwardly, "Dad... I... I have already... I have already taken the liberty of... agreeing to it..."
