Chapter 434: Seeing Han Han Meiqing Again

~8 min read 1,549 words

A little past eight o'clock, Ye Chen drove the car, carrying his overly flashy father-in-law, and went out.

There were still more than two hours before the plane landed, but Xiao Xiao Changkun was already somewhat impatient.

After leaving Tang Chen Yi Pin, he hurriedly asked Ye Chen: "Good son-in-law, do you know where flowers are sold? I want to buy a bouquet of roses to bring along."

Ye Chen said: "Dad, she's bringing her son along. Is it really appropriate for you to give roses in front of her son?"

Xiao Xiao Changkun thought about it, nodded, and said: "You're right. Then let them put together a bouquet of ordinary flowers for me."

Ye Chen then said: "I know a flower shop not far away. Let's go buy the flowers first."

At the flower shop, Ye Chen spent five hundred yuan to have the shopkeeper help put together a bouquet of fresh flowers that symbolized friendship, and only then did he take Xiao Xiao Changkun back to the car.

Holding the bouquet of fresh flowers, Xiao Xiao Changkun was extremely excited and said with a smile: "This boss has good skills; these flowers look very grand! I believe Han Meiqing will definitely like them!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, thinking to himself that his father-in-law was experiencing a typical second spring. If this Han Han Meiqing still had feelings for him, perhaps the two of them could end up together.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen also felt some sympathy for his father-in-law.

There was no help for it; for the sake of his own wife, he certainly couldn't let Ma Lan vanish into thin air just like that. Therefore, although his father-in-law could happily go meet his old flame now, once Ma Lan was released in a few days, his bitter days would begin again.

If Ma Lan knew that Han Han Meiqing had returned, there was no telling how she would make a scene. By then, Xiao Xiao Changkun's days would likely be even harder than before.

However, Ye Chen naturally didn't say this to his father-in-law. After all, he was at his most excited moment right now, so let him enjoy this feeling of freedom and the scent of his first love before Ma Lan came out!

At this time, Xiao Xiao Changkun asked again: "Oh, right, Ye Chen, you've booked the place at Bai Jinhangong, right?"

"It's booked." Ye Chen nodded and said: "You can rest assured when I handle things. I will definitely make you and Auntie Han satisfied today."

"That's good, that's good!" Xiao Xiao Changkun breathed a sigh of relief, then held the flowers and examined them, leaned into the only rose in the bouquet to smell it, and sighed: "Fragrant! It's truly refreshing!"

After finishing, he couldn't help but hum an old song: "Rose, rose, I love you; rose, rose, the sentiment is heavy..."

Ye Chen shook his head, sighing inwardly that he hadn't expected his father-in-law to be quite the closet romantic after his spring fever...

Driving to the airport, the two arrived at the arrival hall. Xiao Xiao Changkun kept staring at the airport's arrival screen, and after searching for a long time, he finally found the flight Han Han Meiqing was on.

The flight's estimated landing time was 10:20, still an hour away. Moreover, since the other party was returning from abroad, there would certainly be an entry process, so it would probably be 11 o'clock by the time she came out.

Xiao Xiao Changkun was extremely excited and didn't feel tired at all, standing there for over an hour.

Five minutes before 11 o'clock, a group of people walked out of the exit. Xiao Xiao Changkun held the flowers and looked forward with anticipation. Suddenly, he saw a middle-aged woman wearing a long black dress and immediately waved at her excitedly: "Han Meiqing!"

When the other party saw him, she was stunned for a moment, and then said with a face full of surprise: "My God, Xiao Changkun!"

Having said that, she took a few quick steps and walked toward Xiao Xiao Changkun.

Ye Chen also became interested all of a sudden, hurriedly wanting to see what his father-in-law's first love looked like.

So he took a look, and was immediately stunned!

Han Han Meiqing's age was said to be the same as Xiao Xiao Changkun's; both were 48 years old. However, Han Han Meiqing didn't look like a 48-year-old woman at all!

She was tall and slender, and her skin was very well-maintained. Wearing a long black dress, she had a goddess-like temperament, and her hair was styled very elegantly.

As for her appearance, it was impeccable—beautiful, moving, poised, and possessing the scholarly aura of the previous generation of intellectuals.

Among celebrities in this age group, there was an actress named Xu Qing, who was considered one of the most beautiful and charming women in that age bracket, but the Han Han Meiqing before him was even more beautiful than Xu Qing!

Xu Qing was already in her early fifties and still charming, while Han Han Meiqing's actual age was three years younger than Xu Qing's, and she looked at least six or seven years younger than her!

This was no middle-aged aunt nearing fifty!

This was completely a big sister in her thirties, not yet forty!

Ye Chen was simply stunned. He truly hadn't expected his father-in-law's first love to be such an impeccable, super middle-aged beauty. One could imagine that she must have been extremely beautiful when she was young!

My God!

Ye Chen even felt a bit envious of Xiao Xiao Changkun. How did this wimpy father-in-law manage to date such a super beauty back then!

At the same time, Ye Chen also felt even more sympathy for Xiao Xiao Changkun!

Because of Ma Lan, he had lost such a peerless, elegant beauty. This was simply picking up a sesame seed and losing a ten-acre watermelon field!

At this moment, looking at Han Han Meiqing, who was still as stunningly beautiful as ever, Xiao Xiao Changkun felt even more sympathy for himself than Ye Chen did!

Why was it that after more than twenty years, one still couldn't see many traces of time on Han Han Meiqing's face?

Why was it that after more than twenty years, she was still so beautiful that she took his breath away?

Why was it that after more than twenty years, her gentle smile and faint dimples were still so intoxicating that he couldn't move his legs after just one glance?

At this moment, Han Han Meiqing walked quickly to Xiao Xiao Changkun. After standing still, she gazed at him and said with a gentle smile, "Xiao Changkun, I really can't believe it; we haven't seen each other for over twenty years!"

Xiao Xiao Changkun was a bit nervous. He said in a flustered manner, "That... yes, Han Meiqing, I really didn't expect that in the blink of an eye... it's been so many years!"

Seeing that his father-in-law was still holding the flowers while talking to Han Han Meiqing and had forgotten to give them to her, Ye Chen hurriedly reminded him from behind, "Dad, don't just keep holding the flowers. Hurry up and give them to her!"

Only then did Xiao Xiao Changkun come back to his senses. He hurriedly handed the flowers to Han Han Meiqing and said nervously, "Han Meiqing, these... these flowers are for you. Welcome back to Jin Ling!"

Han Han Meiqing took the flowers with great delight, looked deeply at Xiao Xiao Changkun, and said, "Xiao Changkun, thank you!"

With the flowers gone from his hands, Xiao Xiao Changkun suddenly didn't know where to put them. He could only rub his hands together awkwardly and said with a stiff smile, "Han Meiqing, we haven't seen each other for so many years, why are you still being so polite with me..."

At this moment, a tall and handsome blond young man walked over from behind, dragging his luggage.

This blond young man had very fair skin, no different from a white person of European or American descent, but his eyes were black, and his features had somewhat of an Asian style. Moreover, he bore a slight resemblance to Han Han Meiqing; at a glance, one could tell he was of mixed heritage.

He walked to Han Han Meiqing's side and asked with a smile, "Mom, is this your college classmate?"

Han Han Meiqing hurriedly pulled him over and introduced him to Xiao Xiao Changkun, "Xiao Changkun, let me introduce you. This is my son, Paul."

Xiao Xiao Changkun took the initiative to reach out his hand and said with a smile, "Oh my, hello Paul! Your Chinese is really good!"

Paul smiled and said, "You're too kind, Uncle. Although I have American citizenship and my father is also American, I still have half-Chinese blood in me. My mother taught me to speak Chinese since I was a child and never let me be the least bit lazy about it."

Xiao Xiao Changkun nodded and hurriedly introduced Ye Chen, saying, "Han Meiqing, Paul, let me introduce you. This is my son-in-law, Ye Chen!"

Paul took the initiative to reach out his hand to Ye Chen and said with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Ye!"
