Chapter 453: Can't we slow down first?

Because Han Meiqing's culinary skills were truly too good, everyone ate until they were a bit bloated.

Although Xiao Churan had some dissatisfaction with Han Meiqing in her heart, and even some rejection, she had absolutely no ability to resist the food she made.

She, who usually paid great attention to dieting, actually ate three times her usual amount of food this evening.

Ye Chen and his father-in-law Xiao Changkun were even more so. The two big men swept through the food like a whirlwind, almost eating all the dishes clean, not even leaving much soup.

After eating, Xiao Changkun secretly put his hand under the table and loosened his belt, allowing his bloated stomach to get some temporary relief.

At the same time, he couldn't help but think to himself: "Han Meiqing is truly perfect in every aspect. If I could really divorce Ma Lan and be with her, that would simply be coming from the eighteenth level of hell straight to heaven."

Even Ye Chen couldn't help but fantasize that if his father-in-law could be with Han Meiqing, his own future days would be much more comfortable.

A mother-in-law like Han Meiqing would be impossible to find even with a lantern, and she cooked so deliciously. If she became his "step-mother-in-law," he would save himself from cooking in the future.

It's just a pity that he couldn't let Ma Lan evaporate from the world just like that.

After dinner, he had to go find Chen Zekai to chat and see how to get Ma Lan out of the detention center.

After dinner, Han Meiqing took the initiative to clean up the dining room and kitchen.

Ye Chen hurriedly wanted to take over, but she wouldn't let Ye Chen intervene, saying that things in the kitchen should originally be done by women.

After everything was cleaned up, Han Meiqing then said to the family, "It's getting late, Paul and I won't bother you all today. Thank you for your hospitality today, this meal was very enjoyable!"

Xiao Changkun hurriedly said, "Oh Meiqing, I should be the one thanking you. It was you who let us taste such a sumptuous Su-Hang home-cooked meal, and also fulfilled a wish of mine from over twenty years ago."

Han Meiqing nodded with a smile. For her, it was also fulfilling a wish from many years ago, but in front of Xiao Churan, many things were not suitable to say, so she said, "Alright, we won't bother you anymore, you stay, we'll go first."

Xiao Changkun asked, "How did you come?"

Han Meiqing said, "Paul drove here, but the car is parked at the entrance of your villa area."

Xiao Changkun said, "Oh my, can Paul drive after drinking?"

Han Meiqing said with a smile, "He can't, but I can. I didn't drink."

"Oh right!" Xiao Changkun said with a smile, "I forgot about that. That's fine, I'll see you to the car."

As he spoke, without waiting for Han Meiqing to express her stance, he opened the door directly, walked out first, and then made a gesture of invitation.

Seeing this, Han Meiqing said, "Then I'll trouble you, Changkun."

Ye Chen and Xiao Churan saw them to the gate, and after politely saying goodbye to them, Xiao Changkun took them out.

Seeing them walk away, Xiao Churan closed the door and said to Ye Chen, "The feeling between this Auntie Han and my father is too obvious. Do you think my dad will cheat..."

Ye Chen said earnestly, "I think Auntie Han is definitely not that kind of person. A person like her has principles. Even if she likes our dad very much in her heart, she will definitely wait until our dad and our mom divorce before having any development with our dad."

Xiao Churan scolded angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could Dad divorce Mom?"

Ye Chen knew that Xiao Churan definitely couldn't accept such a thing, so he didn't go deeper into it with her. He looked at the time and said, "Wife, you should rest well at home, don't go out to look for Mom anymore. I'll go beg some friends to see if they have any other channels to help inquire."

Xiao Churan nodded and said, "Do you want me to go with you?"

Ye Chen hurriedly said, "No need, no need, I'll just take a taxi myself. You haven't worried less these two days, you should go back to your room and rest well."

Xiao Churan sighed and said, "Alright then, I won't go with you. Remember to communicate with me in time if there are any problems. If there are any clues, you must tell me immediately."

Ye Chen agreed fully, opened the door, and said, "Alright, then I'll leave directly."

After saying goodbye to his wife, Ye Chen left Tang Chen Yipin. When he arrived outside the entire villa area, his father-in-law had just sent Han Meiqing and her son away.

Seeing Ye Chen was about to go out, Xiao Changkun hurriedly asked, "Ye Chen, it's so late, are you still going out?"

Ye Chen nodded and said, "I'm going to beg a few friends to see if I can find any clues related to Mom."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Changkun immediately became nervous. He hurriedly pulled him and asked, "Who are you going to beg? Are you going to beg Master Hong Wu? Or are you going to beg that Miss Song?"

Ye Chen said, "I'll inquire with all of them. They have wide connections, perhaps they have some way to find Mom."

"Oh my..." Xiao Changkun clutched his chest with a pained face and asked, "Good son-in-law, is this matter so urgent? Can't we slow down first? You said the two of us have only lived a good day, and you are going to destroy it with your own hands?"

Ye Chen naturally knew his father-in-law's thoughts. He must be ten thousand times unwilling to let himself bring Ma Lan back right now.

After all, he had just met his first love today, and the two seemed to have some opportunity for development. At this time, the person he least wanted to see was probably Ma Lan.

However, in Ye Chen's eyes, his father-in-law's happiness was naturally not as important as his wife's happiness.

So he could only say helplessly, "Sorry Dad, Churan's mood hasn't been very good lately. If I still can't find Mom, I estimate she will be stimulated, so I have to find a way to bring Mom back as soon as possible."

Xiao Changkun's expression was extremely ugly. He said earnestly, "Good son-in-law, Churan is already an adult. Adults should have a certain ability to endure. You can just treat it as tempering her, let her wait a couple more days. Consider it Dad begging you..."

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "Dad, don't be so anxious right now. Even if I ask friends for help, it doesn't mean I can bring Mom back immediately."

Xiao Changkun blurted out, "How could I not be anxious? Whether it's Master Hong Wu or Miss Song, they are all people with great abilities in Jin Ling. Isn't it simple for them to find someone? Maybe your mom will come back tonight!"

Ye Chen looked at Xiao Changkun's expression, which was almost about to cry, and said helplessly, "Dad, this kind of thing is not something the two of us can decide as we wish. Instead of pinning our hopes on Mom coming back a few days late, or even not coming back, it's better to pin our hopes on her coming back sooner."

As he spoke, Ye Chen added, "After Mom comes back, you can make it clear to her, and then formally divorce her. In that way, you can pursue your own happiness without any worries!"
