Chapter 444: The Diamond Bachelor of the Middle-Aged Aunt World

~7 min read 1,296 words

"What?!"

Xiao Churan said in shock: "Good looks, good temperament, perfect personality, and the key is that she's widowed and wealthy... Isn't this the diamond bachelor among middle-aged aunts?"

Ye Chen nodded and said seriously: "She is indeed a diamond bachelor, but this Auntie Han doesn't look like an aunt at all; she looks more like an older sister."

Xiao Churan asked in surprise: "Is it that exaggerated? How old does she look?"

Ye Chen said: "She looks about thirty-seven or thirty-eight, forty at most."

"Really or fake?!"

Xiao Churan was full of disbelief. She rarely saw a woman who was already 50 years old looking like she was thirty-seven or thirty-eight.

Even movie stars aren't that outrageous, right?

Ye Chen said very seriously: "I'm not joking with you at all. Auntie Han truly looks very young. You know that movie star Xu Qing, right? Auntie Han looks even younger and even more beautiful than her."

Xiao Churan exclaimed: "That exaggerated?"

Ye Chen smiled indifferently and said: "She will come to the house for dinner tonight. You'll know when you see her."

Xiao Churan no longer doubted Ye Chen's words. She said with worry: "This woman herself is Dad's first love. Now she's widowed and her conditions are so good. It just so happens that Dad and Mom's relationship is so unstable, and what's even more infuriating is that Mom is missing at this time. Doesn't that mean this woman is going to take advantage of the situation?!"

Ye Chen smiled a bit awkwardly and said: "Wife, that's not something we children can manage. After all, Mom and Dad also have their own freedom. We children can only respect it and shouldn't oppose it."

Xiao Churan suddenly became impatient. Although she knew her mother wasn't a virtuous and good woman, she was her mother after all. How could she be willing to see her mother abandoned by her father?

Thinking of this, her heart became even more urgent, urgently wanting to find her mother as soon as possible and bring her home.

So she hurriedly said to Ye Chen: "Oh, it's getting late. Let's split up and set off. You must go through all the chess and card rooms as much as possible this afternoon. You must take Mom's photo and carefully ask every boss and every guest in the shop."

Ye Chen said: "I don't have Mom's photo."

As for Ma Lan, Ye Chen couldn't hide from her fast enough in his heart; how could he keep any photos of her on his phone?

Xiao Churan hurriedly said: "I'll send you the ID photo Mom took a while ago!"

……

After Ye Chen came out of the house, he started from the neighborhood and shuttled between various chess and card rooms.

Every time he arrived at the entrance of a chess and card room, he would take a photo of the front door, then take a photo of the inside, and then send both photos to his wife to prove he had been there.

Every time Xiao Churan asked him about the results, his answer was the same: The boss said they hadn't seen this person, and the guests also said they hadn't seen this person.

Although he didn't really ask, he knew the result must be this.

Xiao Churan looked at the various feedback he kept sending. On one hand, she knew Ye Chen was indeed helping her look for her mother, but on the other hand, with no clues being found for so long, she felt more and more anxious.

It is said that the best time to solve a missing person case is within 24 hours of the disappearance. If you can find clues within these 24 hours, there is a relatively high probability of finding the person. But if there are no clues in the first 24 hours, it's likely to be ominous.

And at this time, 24 hours had already passed since Ma Lan went missing.

So Xiao Churan was also very worried and nervous now, so she went to the beauty salons and clubs Ma Lan often visited without stopping.

She arrived at one of the beauty salons, held Ma Lan's photo, and asked the boss: "Hello, have you seen the woman in this photo?"

The boss looked at Ma Lan's photo and said in surprise: "Oh my, isn't this Sister Ma?"

Xiao Churan asked with joy: "Do you know my mother?"

The boss smiled and said: "So you are Sister Ma's daughter. Sister Ma used to be a regular customer here, but I haven't seen her much these days. Sister Ma used to come here with friends to do facials often. Why? Is Sister Ma missing?"

Xiao Churan nodded and asked again: "Then may I ask if you know her friends? Can you give me a contact method?"

The boss suddenly thought of something and blurted out: "Oh my, a friend of Sister Ma's is doing a facial here right now. How about I call her out and you ask her?"

Xiao Churan said gratefully: "That would be truly thank you, sorry for the trouble!"

"You're welcome, it's only right."

The boss smiled slightly, picked up the intercom, and said: "Lili, call Sister Wang, and say Sister Ma's daughter is here to look for Sister Ma and has something to ask her in person."

A response soon came from the intercom: "Okay, Sister Wang says she's coming right over."

Xiao Churan waited for a while, and saw a fat, very wealthy-looking woman walk out with a facial mask on her face.

This woman's face was a bit too fat, so the whole mask couldn't cover it, which looked somewhat ridiculous.

But Xiao Churan didn't have any intention to laugh. She just looked at the other party with expectation, hoping to learn some information and clues about her mother from her mouth.

That Sister Wang walked to Xiao Churan, looked her up and down, and asked: "You are Old Ma's daughter?"

Xiao Churan said respectfully: "Auntie Wang, hello. I am Ma Lan's daughter. I would like to ask you, have you seen my mother from yesterday until now?"

"Your mother!" Sister Wang snorted angrily: "We can't afford to climb high to be friends with someone like your mother!"

Xiao Churan asked busily: "Auntie Wang, what do you mean by this? Does my mother have any conflict with you?"

Sister Wang curled her lips and said: "I wouldn't dare to have any conflict with Old Ma. I just called her yesterday afternoon to find her and do a facial together. Do you know how your mother spoke?"

Xiao Churan asked busily: "Auntie Wang, what did my mother say at the time?"

Sister Wang scolded angrily: "Your mother said at the time what her status was, how could she do a facial with me? She also said that doing facials at a beauty salon is something people like us do, and she wanted to buy the beauty salon directly to serve her alone. She also said she wanted to draw a line with us!"

After speaking, Sister Wang looked at Xiao Churan and asked angrily: "You tell me yourself, isn't your mother too much?"

"Everyone is a friend. I kindly invited her to come out for a facial, and she actually ridiculed and mocked me like that, and even said I was a poor person, saying that the wealth she possessed was something I couldn't imagine in my life! What does that mean? Ma Lan got rich? Looking down on us poor sisters?"

"If you look down on me, just don't contact me. Why do you have to insult people? Did I provoke you? Why did you insult me as soon as you opened your mouth? It's really making me angry!"
