Chapter 2577: Soulmate

~13 min read 2,480 words

Xiao Xiao Weiwei's strength shocked Old Mrs. Xiao, and she couldn't help but feel a chill on her back.

She was shocked because she didn't expect that Xiao Xiao Weiwei, who had always had no opinion and had always been led by the nose by herself, had become more and more strong since she served as a manager in an etiquette company, and now she had clearly stated that the whole family would listen to her from now on;

As for the chill on her back, it was because she realized today that Xiao Xiao Weiwei had actually never forgiven her for what she did at the beginning. The reason why she didn't care about herself or think about revenge was mainly because she was old.

However, the meaning of Xiao Xiao Weiwei's words was also very clear. If she continued to rely on her old age to sell her old age, she would really have no one to rely on in her old age.

Old Mrs. Xiao was not a fool. She knew that in a family, whoever mastered the right to speak of money possessed the right to speak of the whole family.

She was old and had no assets, and even supporting herself had become a problem. In this situation, it was impossible for her to continue to be in charge of the Xiao family.

And if she wanted to live a life without worry about food and clothing, she naturally could not anger Xiao Xiao Weiwei, the granddaughter.

So, she could only honestly express her stance: "Xiao Weiwei... don't worry, Grandma is no longer the grandma she was... In the future, Grandma will definitely not engage in those things anymore. In the future, everything in this family will listen to you..."

Xiao Xiao Weiwei saw that the old lady's attitude was sincere, and the anger on her face dissipated a lot. She nodded and said: "Grandma, I will send Dad and Brother to the hospital first today. It is unrealistic for you to take care of them in the hospital. For these few days, you should rest at home first. I will ask a nurse to help take care of them in the hospital. After Mom comes out, let Mom go to the hospital to help."

Old Mrs. Xiao also knew that in her situation, let alone going to the hospital to take care of her son and grandson, even if she cooked for them, she was afraid that she would be powerless. So as long as she didn't add trouble, it would be a contribution to this family.

So she nodded without hesitation and said: "Xiao Weiwei, don't worry, there are still many firewood, rice, oil, and salt at home, and your mother bought a lot of chicken, fish, meat, and eggs before, which is enough for this old woman of mine to live for the time being."

Xiao Xiao Hailong remembered something and hurriedly said: "Xiao Weiwei, you have to hurry up and drive Mom's Mercedes G-Wagon away! That car is still parked at Ye Chen and Xiao Xiao Churan's door!"

Xiao Xiao Weiwei said expressionlessly: "If you want to drive, you drive, I won't go."

Xiao Xiao Hailong was anxious and hurriedly said: "You drive that car to our house first. When I recover in the future, that car will naturally be driven by me..."

Xiao Xiao Weiwei turned her head and looked at him with disdain, and said coldly: "You might not have watched the news. The short-video platform where Mom live-streamed has issued a statement, requiring Mom to return all live-stream income, and has prepared to start legal proceedings. In other words, every penny Mom earned from live-stream shopping must be returned. Including that Mercedes G-Wagon, that car is already second-hand, and there must be a gap between the discounted amount and the purchase amount. There is also the money Mom squandered during this period, and the money she ordered for the Rolls-Royce Cullinan. These are all big holes she has to fill one by one in the future. If she can't fill these holes, she won't even want to buy a Wuling Hongguang in the future."

"Ah?!" Xiao Xiao Hailong was shocked and said: "Mom worked so hard for so long, and she can't even keep the car?!"

"Car?" Xiao Xiao Weiwei said coldly: "If she can't fill these holes, Mom won't even be able to buy a Wuling Hongguang in her life."

With Qian Qian Hongyan being detained and Xiao Changgan and Xiao Xiao Hailong being sent to the hospital, Qian Qian Hongyan's dream of getting rich was officially declared shattered.

The next day, August 5th.

Ito Nanako, her father, and her aunt took the Ito family's private jet and flew to Jin Ling in the morning.

Arriving in Jin Ling at the same time were the maids carefully selected by Ito Nanako from home, as well as a large number of high-end fresh flowers purchased from all over Japan.

In the field of agriculture, Americans are skilled at genetic modification, while the Japanese are skilled at breeding. Moreover, Japan is more refined in high-end categories; many high-end fruits that one can name are cultivated by Japan, from the Fuji apples of earlier years to the current Shine Muscat grapes, Red Face strawberries, and Chun Jian citrus. The island nation truly has a knack for this.

And the fresh flowers brought by Ito Nanako from Japan were also top-grade varieties carefully cultivated locally, which were not only full and beautiful, but also very fresh.

Since Tanaka Hiroichi arrived in Jin Ling a few days earlier than the Ito family, he specially arranged a motorcade to pick up the plane today.

When the Ito family left the airport by car, the fresh flowers that arrived at the same time were also transported away by multiple refrigerated trucks prepared in advance.

Although the only person she was thinking about was Ye Chen, Ito Nanako's first stop was still chosen at the Bai Jinhangong Hotel.

However, Ito Takehiko did not go to Bai Jinhangong, but was taken to Tomson First Grade by Tanaka Hiroichi. Before the wedding, Ito Takehiko did not plan to go to Bai Jinhangong, because he was also a well-known figure in Japan, and he was

It was only when Ito Nanako's motorcade arrived at the Bai Jinhangong Hotel that Chen Zekai received the news.

Upon learning that she had arrived, Chen Zekai immediately called Ye Chen to report this news to him.

When Ye Chen heard that Nanako had arrived, his first reaction was naturally one of pleasant surprise. It just so happened that Xiao Xiao Churan had gone to the company, and Ma Lan was forcing Xiao Xiao Changkun to drive her out for some fresh air, leaving him alone at home. So, he simply drove Xiao Xiao Changkun's old BMW 5 Series and headed toward the Bai Jinhangong Hotel.

As for Su Ruoli, she had been preparing the wedding venue for her parents at the Sky Garden of Bai Jinhangong since yesterday. She knew that her mother had not had an easy life over these years, so she wanted to do her utmost to create an unforgettable wedding for her.

Because the Sky Garden at Bai Jinhangong is not usually open to the public, and this time it was specifically reserved for Su Shoudao and He Yingxiu's wedding, Su Ruoli had plenty of time for on-site preparations, unlike many popular hotel banquet halls that only allow setup to begin the night before the wedding, making the time particularly rushed.

At this moment, she was discussing the set design plan with the project manager of the wedding planning company when she suddenly saw Ito Nanako walking in with a group of maids. She was pleasantly surprised and hurried forward, saying, "Miss Ito, why did you come so early? I thought you wouldn't arrive until tomorrow or the day after."

Ito Nanako smiled and said, "The wedding for Uncle and Auntie is on the eighth; how could I arrive too late?"

As she spoke, Ito Nanako added, "I brought a lot of fresh flowers. The staff will bring them up one after another later. I'll arrange them on-site for you to see so you can decide which style you like better."

Su Ruoli asked subconsciously, "If we arrange the flowers now, I'm afraid they won't last for three days, right?"

Ito Nanako smiled and said, "The flowers brought this time are specifically for finalizing the plan with you. I have already arranged the flowers for the wedding. They will be carefully selected and pruned on the morning of the seventh, then flown from Japan to Jin Ling by air in the afternoon. Furthermore, I have already instructed the supplier that the flowers cut on the morning of the seventh should not be in full bloom, but about to bloom. This way, when everything is set up on the night of the seventh and the flowers are given enough water, it will only take one night for the flowers to be in their best full-bloom state for the wedding on the eighth!"

Su Ruoli said with a look of surprise, "This... preparing two batches of flowers like this, and both by air freight, isn't the cost too high?"

Ito Nanako patted her hand and smiled slightly, "This bit of cost is not worth mentioning for the Ito family. Miss Su, don't take it to heart. Our goal is to let Uncle and Auntie have a perfect wedding; what is a little bit of flowers compared to that?"

Su Ruoli was moved in her heart and said very sincerely, "Miss Ito, thank you so much..."

Ito Nanako shook her head and smiled, "After what happened with our parents, we can be considered friends. Why be so polite with me?"

Su Ruoli nodded gently. She understood the meaning behind Ito Nanako's words. Her mother and Ito Nanako's father had both been amputees. Some time ago, they had both received Ye Chen's Reshaping Pill in the United States at the same time, and it was that experience that allowed the two to quickly become familiar with each other.

So, Su Ruoli asked Ito Nanako, "May I ask if Mr. Ito has come?"

"He has." Ito Nanako said in a low voice, "Ever since his legs recovered, my father has kept a low profile, worried about being discovered by outsiders, so he went to his residence to rest first. He asked me to convey that he will definitely come to the scene to offer his congratulations on the day of the wedding."

After saying that, she asked Su Ruoli, "Is Auntie He here?"

Su Ruoli smiled, "Mom is in the hotel room trying on her wedding dress. Miss Song arranged for a designer to come here to tailor it for her, and Mr. Chen arranged a presidential suite to make it convenient for these few days of wedding preparations."

Ito Nanako nodded and smiled, "That's good too. Let Auntie He take care of herself, and leave the setup of the wedding venue to us younger generation."

Su Ruoli nodded slightly and then asked Ito Nanako, "By the way, Miss Ito, did you tell Mr. Ye in advance that you were coming today?"

"No." Ito Nanako said with a hint of shyness, "Mr. Ye Chen must be busy on weekdays, so I didn't tell him in advance."

Su Ruoli smiled, "Even if you don't tell him, Mr. Chen will tell him immediately. Mr. Ye values you so much, maybe he is already on his way here."

Ito Nanako blushed and said, "How could that be... I think Mr. Ye Chen values you a lot too..."

Su Ruoli was rarely embarrassed as she said, "I... I'm in a different situation than you... I am Mr. Ye's subordinate, and you are Mr. Ye's close confidante..."

Ito Nanako looked at her and asked with feigned curiosity, "Are you really just a subordinate?"

Su Ruoli felt a bit unnatural for a moment and said, "I really am just a subordinate... Mr. Ye has saved me many times and helped me so much. Naturally, I must always be by his side to serve him and repay his kindness to me, so naturally, I am his subordinate..."

Ito Nanako nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Actually, I envy you more. Being his subordinate, at least you can see him often, unlike me, where it's not easy to see him usually."

Su Ruoli was slightly stunned when she heard this.

Originally, she had envied Ito Nanako. After all, anyone with eyes could see that although Ye Chen had many confidantes, he had a special preference for her.

But thinking about it carefully, what Ito Nanako said was not unreasonable.

She usually lived in Japan, so it was indeed not easy to see Ye Chen, unlike herself, who was in Jin Ling, so the opportunities to see Ye Chen were naturally much more frequent.

Just as she was sighing in her heart, the sound of high heels approached, and Su Su Zhiyu, wearing a professional suit and looking very capable, walked in quickly.

Seeing her arrive, Su Ruoli quickly said to Ito Nanako, "Miss Ito, my sister is here. You should know her too, right?"

Ito Nanako nodded with a smile, "I know her. After all, on the surface, we are both shareholders of ISU Shipping."

Su Su Zhiyu had already walked quickly to Su Ruoli's side. Su Ruoli showed joy and said, "Sister, why are you here?"

Su Su Zhiyu smiled and said, "Dad is getting married, so I, as his daughter, must definitely come."

As she spoke, she looked at Ito Nanako and smiled, "Miss Ito is here too. Long time no see."

Ito Nanako nodded and smiled, "Long time no see, Miss Su."

Su Su Zhiyu looked around and asked Su Ruoli, "Ruoli, is Dad not here?"

Su Ruoli said somewhat awkwardly, "That... Dad is in the presidential suite... accompanying my mom... trying on the wedding dress."

Su Su Zhiyu nodded slightly and asked again, "Then is Mr. Ye here?"

"He's not." Su Ruoli shook her head and asked her, "Sister, do you have something to discuss with Mr. Ye?"

Su Su Zhiyu pursed her lips, feeling a bit uncertain in her heart as she said, "I'm looking for Mr. Ye because I want to beg him to give my brother a chance to come back and attend the wedding... My brother is still on the road kowtowing, and Dad is getting married. As the eldest son, he should be there, but I don't know if Mr. Ye will agree..."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a familiar voice that often echoed in her dreams: "Since Miss Su wants Su Su Zhifei to attend the wedding, then I will arrange for someone to pick him up!"
