Chapter 945: Truly a Good Son-in-Law

At this moment, Xiao Churan was moved to tears.

Looking back on the years since she married Ye Chen, she felt a thousand emotions deep in her heart.

Back then, her grandfather insisted that she marry Ye Chen. She didn't understand it, and the whole family strongly opposed it, but her grandfather still used his authority to make her compromise.

However, this forced marriage gave her a wrong perception of marriage from the very beginning.

After marrying Ye Chen, she believed that marriage was just following her grandfather's requirements to be Ye Chen's wife, and the two of them would just muddle through life together; whether it was suitable or not didn't matter, and whether they liked each other or not didn't matter either.

Therefore, for a long time, the two of them treated each other with the respect of guests. Although they were husband and wife in name, they were actually just strangers living under the same roof.

Especially when they first got married, Xiao Churan also suffered great pressure from all sides because of Ye Chen's status.

At that time, everyone kept telling her in her ear: Ye Chen is a loser, a bum, a piece of trash; she shouldn't be with Ye Chen and should divorce him quickly.

But for her at that time, since she chose to marry him, regardless of whether it was voluntary or not, she didn't want to go down the path of divorce.

After all, all along, Ye Chen had never done anything wrong.

Later on, in her married life with Ye Chen, she gradually saw the shining points in Ye Chen and gradually cultivated some good feelings.

However, she had never understood what kind of feeling liking and love really were.

After all, Xiao Churan had never been in love and was relatively ignorant and clumsy about emotional matters, so the two of them just muddled through to this day.

And now, facing Ye Chen's deep confession, she suddenly felt her heartbeat accelerate extremely fast, a feeling that made her breathe rapidly and feel dizzy.

Of course, it also moved her to tears.

Ma Lan, standing to the side, was happy from the bottom of her heart when she saw this scene.

She now truly felt that Ye Chen was indeed a good son-in-law who could stand the test.

The rich second-generation heirs who liked Xiao Churan in the past, although they were extremely flattering to her, almost none of them could truly do what Ye Chen had done.

Recalling the past, she treated Ye Chen like that and insulted Ye Chen like that, yet Ye Chen still maintained the respect a son-in-law should have for his mother-in-law and always called her "Mom." Just from this point, Ye Chen was a good young man who repaid grievances with virtue.

What's more, she had repeatedly caused major disasters, and in the end, it was Ye Chen who helped her settle them, and he even saved her life more than once. These were classic examples of repaying grievances with virtue!

Most importantly, Ye Chen finally had prospects now.

The Tang Chen Yi Pin villa worth over one hundred million and the two BMW cars were all earned through Ye Chen's hard work. Every time he went out to read Feng Shui for others, he would also buy her many expensive gifts.

To be honest, it would be hard to find such a son-in-law even with a lantern.

Moreover, he was indeed very good and attentive to her daughter, which was even more rare.

So, she hurriedly said to Xiao Churan: "Churan, Ye Chen must be tired after flying back so late. You two hurry back to your room, take a bath together, and go to sleep early!"

"Ah?" Xiao Churan was stunned, her face turned red instantly, and she said at a loss: "Mom... you... what are you talking about... what take a bath together..."

Ma Lan said seriously: "Isn't it normal for a married couple to take a bath together? It just so happens that the bathroom in our big villa has a luxury bathtub. That bathtub is just right for two people to soak in, and you can also scrub Ye Chen's back or something. How nice that would be..."

Xiao Churan was so ashamed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Although she was already in her 20s, in reality, she was still a young girl who had never seriously been in love.

Ma Lan suddenly asked her to take a bath with Ye Chen and even asked her to scrub Ye Chen's back; she couldn't adapt to it at all, feeling both shy and ashamed.

Ye Chen knew that his wife was a woman who was easily shy, and she had no experience in that area at all, so how could she withstand Ma Lan's teasing?

So he hurriedly said: "Mom, Churan has thin skin, so don't tease her."

Ma Lan said with a smile: "Churan, see? Ye Chen is so thoughtful of you!"

As she spoke, she stretched and said: "I won't chat with you anymore. I have to go back to my room to take some good photos of my bracelet. You two should rest early too!"

Just as she was speaking, Xiao Changkun walked out of the elevator wearing a brand-new Boss suit.

As soon as he saw the three of them, he turned around at the elevator entrance with a proud face and laughed: "Look, your old Xiao still has some foundation, right? This suit is just like it was tailor-made. You tell me, with my figure, not getting fat at fifty, it's rare in the world!"

At this time, Xiao Changkun, wearing a high-end and decent suit, indeed looked very imposing. Coupled with the fact that he managed his figure very well, he really didn't look like someone in his 50s at first glance.

However, Ye Chen knew very well that his father-in-law Xiao Changkun was actually a lazy person who didn't exercise much at all. The reason he could keep his figure so well was entirely because he had been tortured by Ma Lan for so many years.

Although Ma Lan had restrained herself a lot now, the Ma Lan of the past was simply a female devil. Anyone who ended up with such a wife would be annoyed to death, feeling troubled and bored every day, and even having no appetite to eat, so it was impossible to gain weight.

So, Ye Chen praised: "Dad, you look like you're forty years old dressed up like this. You really have a lot of temperament!"

"Right! Hehehe!" Xiao Changkun laughed proudly and said: "Back in university, your old Xiao was also a famous campus heartthrob. I'm no worse than those young fresh meat stars now!"

Xiao Churan shook her head helplessly: "Dad, when can you be a little more humble? If you say things like this, people will laugh at you!"

Xiao Changkun curled his lips and said: "What are you afraid of? Among a pile of old men, your dad is definitely one of the best. To describe it with an idiom, that's called standing out from the crowd!"

Ma Lan looked at the young and imposing Xiao Changkun, and she really felt uncomfortable in her heart.

She couldn't help but think to herself: "This dog Xiao Changkun really looks like something when he cleans up! On the other hand, my figure has been constantly gaining weight over the years, and it's getting more and more out of control! During this time at home nursing the injury on my leg, I've been severely lacking in exercise, leading to constant weight gain! No! I must lose weight and restore my figure! No matter what, I can't let him, Xiao Changkun, outshine me!"

So, Ma Lan glared at Xiao Changkun unconvinced. She didn't talk to him, but said to Ye Chen and Xiao Churan: "I'm going back to my room. You two should go back and rest early too."

Xiao Churan responded with a red face: "Okay Mom, you go back to your room and rest first!"

Xiao Changkun also said: "Ye Chen, you go back to your room and rest early. You must be tired after running around for so many days. Let Churan draw some hot water for you and take a good bath!"

Xiao Churan thought of her mother's words just now and couldn't help but feel a burst of shame, but thinking about it, her husband was indeed very hard-working, and taking a bath could help him relax a lot, and his fatigue would definitely be greatly improved.

So, she said to Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, you chat with Dad for a while, I'll go up and draw water for you. You can come up and take a bath in ten minutes."

Ye Chen nodded.

After Xiao Churan and Ma Lan took the elevator upstairs, Xiao Changkun pulled Ye Chen, wanting to make him a cup of tea to relieve his fatigue.

Just as Ye Chen sat down, his phone buzzed.

Looking down, it was a strange number from Yanjing, so he stood up and said to Xiao Changkun: "Dad, I'm going to take a call."

Xiao Changkun said: "Just take the call here, why go out?"

Ye Chen nodded: "It's from a client."

As he spoke, he stepped out the front door.

Arriving in the courtyard, Ye Chen pressed the answer button and said: "Hello, who is this?"

On the phone, a woman's enthusiastic voice came through: "Oh my, Chen'er, it's your aunt! For so many years, Auntie has really missed you so much!" ===== CHAPTER 946 =====
