Chapter 2421

~8 min read 1,533 words

Ma Lan's words left James White stunned on the spot.

He subconsciously asked: "Ms. Ma, what do you mean by delaying for a few days?"

Ma Lan said angrily: "Delaying for a few days means exactly what it says, let them delay for a few days, don't be so anxious!"

James White was extremely embarrassed. He really couldn't understand why Ma Lan would make such a strange request.

Confused, he couldn't help but ask: "Ms. Ma, I'm a bit confused. Didn't you want me to get you out of here as soon as possible? Why don't you want to leave now?"

Ma Lan said seriously: "To tell you the truth, I have fallen in love with this place. The people here are very friendly, and I have made many friends here. If I just leave like this, I guess many people will never see each other again in this life. After all, I am not an American, and I will return to China after a while."

In fact, Ma Lan didn't have any real friends here at all. All she had were some flatterers from all over the world.

These people were respectful and flattering to Ma Lan every day, which even gave her a feeling like an empress.

It is really not easy for ordinary people to experience this feeling. After all, there is always someone better than someone else in the free world, and it is difficult to find the feeling of being the only one.

But in a small environment like a prison, it is relatively easy to achieve.

So Ma Lan also knew very well that if she left the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility, she would never find this unique experience again.

James White was also a bit confused at this time. He really couldn't figure out why Ma Lan would fall in love with this ghostly place.

So, he said awkwardly: "Ms. Ma, this matter no longer depends on you or me. It depends entirely on the efficiency of the New York police. If they are efficient enough, you will be released soon. Of course, if they are slow enough, perhaps you can stay here for a few more days."

Ma Lan suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said to James White: "By the way, aren't you hired by my son-in-law's client? Can you ask that client of my son-in-law to help me communicate with the police, let them not let me out for the time being, and wait for about 10 days? Just let me out after waiting for ten days!"

Because Zong Qiuhua had already been brought to justice, Ma Lan felt like she had taken a reassurance pill.

Although she had been living very comfortably here before, she was more or less worried. What if she couldn't get out?

Although prison life was very cool and being the Ghost Fearer of Bedford Hills was indeed very enjoyable, that was all based on the premise of experiencing life.

If she really couldn't get out, and this kind of life became normalized, she couldn't stand it at all.

But now she could be completely relieved. Zong Qiuhua had been brought to justice, and her grievances had been cleared, so she could leave whenever she wanted.

Since that was the case, she hoped to stay for a few more days with peace of mind.

James White was a bit embarrassed at this time, but he had a principle: he must not let the client down, so he immediately agreed and said: "Ms. Ma, don't worry, I will definitely convey this matter for you!"

Ma Lan breathed a sigh of relief and instructed: "Then you must not forget, I am waiting for your good news."

The first thing James White did after leaving the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility was to immediately take out his mobile phone and call Fei Jianzhong, the old master of the Fei family.

On the phone, he reported Ma Lan's strange behavior to Fei Jianzhong in detail, and Fei Jianzhong hurriedly conveyed Ma Lan's request to Ye Chen word for word.

When Ye Chen heard Old Master Fei say on the phone that Ma Lan didn't want to leave prison for the time being, he couldn't help but laugh or cry.

He really didn't expect that his mother-in-law would be addicted to being in prison.

It seems that Ma Lan's days at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility were indeed quite good.

At this time, Fei Jianzhong on the other end of the phone said respectfully: "Mr. Ye, in fact, it is not very difficult to let your mother-in-law continue to stay in the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility. I can call a friend in the judicial department and say hello."

Ye Chen said without hesitation: "Forget it, don't bother anymore, arrange for her to be released from prison tomorrow."

In fact, Ye Chen didn't want Ma Lan to come out so early. After all, he didn't want to see Ma Lan's face every day.

However, he also had to consider the feelings of his wife, Xiao Churan. He had been away from Providence for a while. During this time, his wife had been going to school and living alone, and she had to worry about Ma Lan in prison, so her days were also a bit tormented.

Although he was 100% sure that he could save Ma Lan at any time, in Xiao Churan's view, no matter how sure he was, she would feel insecure.

After all, from her perspective, her mother was framed this time and caused a big trouble. If she was not careful, she might be sentenced to life imprisonment, so she couldn't feel completely at ease before her mother was released from prison.

Ye Chen didn't want Xiao Churan to continue worrying, so he planned to let Ma Lan out tomorrow, and then take her to Providence to let Xiao Churan feel at ease as soon as possible.

At this very moment, at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility.

Since seeing James White, Ma Lan's mood had become uneasy.

When she returned to the dining hall, she didn't even have an appetite for the tomato and egg noodles carefully prepared for her by the prison guard.

Seeing her absent-minded, a group of people hurriedly asked: "Sister Lan, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"

Ma Lan shook her head dejectedly and said: "Nothing, you don't have to worry."

Ma Lan didn't want to tell them that she might be leaving soon.

If that were the case, she guessed that many of them would celebrate.

Even prisoners in other cells would celebrate the departure of the Ghost Fearer of Bedford Hills in private.

Therefore, Ma Lan decided not to say a word, so that every second she stayed at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility would still be the Ghost Fearer of Bedford Hills that everyone feared.

However, in order to ensure that she could stay in prison for a few more days, during the fresh air time, she used the public phone on the playground to call Ye Chen.

After Ye Chen connected, Ma Lan hurriedly said on the other end of the phone: "Good son-in-law, it's Mom!"

Ye Chen said politely: "Mom, how have you been these two days?"

Ma Lan said repeatedly: "Good, good, good, very good. Mom called you just to tell you not to worry about Mom. Mom is doing well inside."

Ye Chen hummed and said: "That's good. By the way, Mom, I heard that the suspect who cheated you has been caught. I believe you will be able to come out soon."

Ma Lan hurriedly said: "Good son-in-law, Mom called just to talk about this. Can you help Mom tell that client of yours, let him help find a relationship, don't let Mom out so early, Mom doesn't want to leave now..."

Ye Chen asked curiously: "Mom, what's wrong with you? You finally have a chance to regain your freedom, why don't you want to come out?"

Ma Lan stammered: "That... Mom made some friends inside. To tell you the truth, I get along quite well with these people, and I want to stay with them for a few more days! Ye Chen, I don't care! You must help Mom find a way!"

Ye Chen said vaguely: "Okay, then I'll try, but I can't guarantee it will work."

Ma Lan reminded: "It must work! If you can't help Mom with this favor, then Mom will give the prison guard a big slap after going out to see if she can be locked in again!"

Ye Chen smiled helplessly: "Okay, okay, okay, I'll help you find a way, I will definitely satisfy you."

"That's more like it!"

Getting Ye Chen's promise, Ma Lan hung up the phone with satisfaction.

However, Ye Chen had no intention of helping Ma Lan get her wish.

He sent a voice message directly to Wan Pojun, which said: "Pojun, the people you arranged at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility can all be withdrawn. Find a way to let them complete the withdrawal during the fresh air time tomorrow noon."

Wan Pojun immediately replied with a message: "Okay, Mr. Ye, your subordinate will arrange it!"
