Chapter 426: Drink two cups happily

~8 min read 1,431 words

At dinner, Xiao Churan barely touched her chopsticks.

She repeatedly picked up her phone to call Ma Lan and send WeChat video calls, but everything was like a stone sinking into the sea, with no news feedback.

Xiao Changkun was at ease. Anyway, he felt that it would be best if Ma Lan ran away, ran away like Qian Hongyan. In that case, his life would be truly liberated.

Xiao Churan was so anxious that she kept talking about going to the police station, so Xiao Changkun said on the side, "Oh Churan, your mom is an adult. Maybe she has something to do. Why do you care what she does? What if she really wants to leave this home? You can't let the police catch her back, right?"

"How could that be?" Xiao Churan said seriously, "Mom has been looking forward to Tomson First Grade for so long, and now she has finally moved in. Even if she wants to leave home, with her personality, she would never leave at this time. This is not her style at all!"

Xiao Changkun fell into deep thought.

His daughter's words woke him up.

What kind of person was Ma Lan?

She was someone whose vanity was strong to the point of exploding.

And she was also someone who dreamed of enjoying herself.

There was no way she would leave home on the day the whole family moved into Tomson First Grade. This was completely not her style.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown, thinking to himself, could it be that Ma Lan really had an accident?

Actually, although Xiao Changkun disliked Ma Lan, they had lived together for so many years after all. To say that this person had an accident all of a sudden, he felt a bit empty in his heart. If he really stayed at home drinking tea, he felt it was a bit inappropriate.

So he sighed and said, "Eat first, and I'll go out with you to look for her after eating."

Xiao Churan saw that her father's attitude had eased, and felt a little more comfortable, so she hurriedly said, "Dad, why don't we split into two groups later? I'll go report to the police, and you go look for the mahjong parlors Mom often goes to."

Xiao Changkun said, "Okay, I'll go look."

Ye Chen said, "Wife, I'll go with you to report to the police."

Xiao Churan hurriedly said, "Reporting to the police is simple, one person is enough. You should go with Dad to look around."

"Okay." Ye Chen nodded, but he was a bit worried about Xiao Churan, so he said to Dong Ruolin, "Ruolin, you accompany Churan."

Dong Ruolin hurriedly said, "No problem, I'll accompany Churan."

After eating a few bites of food, the four of them split into two cars and left Tomson First Grade in two directions.

Xiao Churan drove Dong Ruolin to the police station, and Ye Chen drove Xiao Changkun to the mahjong parlor.

However, before getting in the car, Ye Chen specifically sent a WeChat message to Chen Zekai, "My wife is going to report to the police. You greet the police station and don't reveal any information about my mother-in-law."

Chen Zekai replied quickly, "Young Master, don't worry, I've already greeted them. The Young Mistress will definitely not find any information about Ma Lan."

"That's good." Ye Chen felt much more relaxed.

Driving, he carried Xiao Changkun out the door.

As soon as they went out, Ye Chen asked Xiao Changkun, "Dad, where are we going to look?"

Xiao Changkun sighed, "I don't know where she likes to play mahjong. Let's just turn around in the neighborhood and see if there are any mahjong parlors. If we see one, we'll go in and look."

Ye Chen laughed inwardly. It seemed Xiao Changkun was also just going through the motions to show Xiao Churan.

They looked around a few mahjong parlors and didn't find Ma Lan's shadow. Xiao Changkun wasn't in a hurry either. Anyway, his main idea was to go out and go through the motions, and by the way, he could feel at ease. As for Ma Lan's specific safety and whereabouts, he didn't care much.

After looking around and finding no one, Xiao Changkun said, "Ye Chen, why don't we go back, or find a place to eat some grilled skewers? Churan is always nervous at dinner, making me not full."

Ye Chen laughed, "Okay, I know a roadside barbecue stall, the taste is very good."

Xiao Changkun slapped his thigh, "Let's go, get two grilled big kidneys to taste, and by the way, let's drink two bottles of beer."

Ye Chen hurriedly said, "I'm driving, Dad, I can't drink."

Xiao Changkun waved his hand, "Hey, I'll call a designated driver. It's not easy for us to have a drink. Usually, your mom controls me, chirping and nagging in my ear all day long, it's annoying. Now that she's not here, shouldn't we drink two cups happily?"

Ye Chen shrugged and laughed, "Since you said so, let's drink!"

Saying this, he drove the car to the side of the barbecue stall.

The two ordered a lot of skewers and a few bottles of beer, and sat on the side of the road happily eating skewers.

Ma Lan was missing, and Ye Chen, as the mastermind and initiator, was naturally very happy.

And because Xiao Changkun had been tortured by Ma Lan for too long, he felt much more relaxed all of a sudden, and his mood was naturally very happy.

The two had just sat down and were about to eat when Xiao Churan called Ye Chen.

He hurriedly gave Xiao Changkun a wink, then answered the phone and asked with concern, "Hey Churan, did you report to the police?"

Xiao Churan's voice was a bit frustrated, "Reported, but the police's meaning is that Mom is an adult, and now the missing time is less than ten hours, so there's no way to send police force to help look for her for the time being. However, they have already reported the missing person in the system. If anyone finds her, they will notify me."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "That's good. Actually, the police are right. It's only been a few hours since she went missing, how can they send a large number of police to look for her? The police have more important things to do."

"Sigh..." Xiao Churan said, "I just feel not very good. My intuition always feels that things are a bit strange. I'm really afraid that Mom will have an accident... With her personality and temper, if she has a conflict with someone outside, it's easy to suffer a big loss..."

Ye Chen thought to himself, sure enough, no one knows a mother like a daughter! Xiao Churan knew Ma Lan's personality and temper like the back of her hand.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Ever since he married Xiao Churan and entered the Xiao family, he felt more and more that Xiao Churan was an extremely rare good girl.

It wasn't just how beautiful she was on the outside and how attractive she was to him, but more importantly, the kind quality she possessed was truly admirable.

Especially in this kind of family environment, the whole Xiao family, from Ma Lan to the old lady, to Xiao Changqian's family, none of them were good people.

Xiao Changkun was barely okay, but he was also cowardly and afraid of trouble.

Xiao Churan could possess golden qualities in such a family, which was something Ye Chen had always admired.

He also began to ponder Ma Lan's matter.

If Ma Lan was locked up for the rest of her life, there was no doubt that Xiao Churan would definitely not be able to let go.

That is to say, for the sake of his wife, sooner or later, he would have to release his brain-dead mother-in-law.

It's not impossible to release her, but the key is to let her suffer enough inside first.

Moreover, he still had hidden dangers that hadn't been solved.

For example, when Ma Lan comes out, she will definitely ask him for accountability for the first time, asking why he has such a bank card.

She will definitely treat him as a member of a fraud gang.

In that case, she will definitely tell Xiao Churan about this.

So, no matter what, he must first think of a way to make Ma Lan obediently shut her broken mouth!
