Chapter 473 Preparations for the Trip to the Port City
However, when Chen Le saw the person outside the door, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Mom, why are you here?"
It turned out that the person standing outside the door was none other than Su Xi's mother!
Hearing Chen Le's words, Su Xi was also stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked towards the door.
When Su Xi saw her mother, a hint of panic flashed across her face.
She quickly turned around and ran back to her bedroom to change her clothes before coming out.
Looking at Chen Le and Su Xi's expressions, Su's mother revealed a meaningful smile.
It seems she... arrived at the wrong time.
Thinking of this, Su's mother said somewhat awkwardly:
"Xiao Le, Xi Xi, did I disturb you?"
Hearing Su's mother's words, Chen Le laughed and said:
"Mom, what are you saying? How could I possibly disturb you?"
"You are our elder, we are overjoyed."
Upon hearing Chen Le's words, Su's mother laughed as well. She looked at Chen Le and said:
"Xiao Le, your words are getting sweeter and sweeter."
"Mom is almost completely charmed by you."
Hearing Su's mother's words, Chen Le laughed and then turned to look at Su Xi.
At this moment, Su Xi quickly spoke up:
"Mom, please sit down. I'll make you a pot of tea."
Su Xi was unusually flustered. She first brewed a pot of tea for her mother, and then hurried to the bathroom to take a shower.
After all, he had just had a "battle" with Chen Le not long ago, and he still had some smell on him. It would be embarrassing if his mother smelled it.
Chen Le also took this time to change his clothes.
He just finished showering and came out wearing only a pair of shorts. Nothing happened when no one was home.
But since his mother-in-law was coming, he naturally had to tidy himself up properly.
A moment later, Chen Le and Su Xi returned to the living room. Looking at Su's mother sitting on the sofa, both of them showed a hint of embarrassment.
They didn't expect Su's mother to come here suddenly.
"Mom, why are you here?"
Su Xi blushed and asked.
Hearing Su Xi's words, Su's mother also laughed, looked at Su Xi, and said:
"It's nothing."
"I just happened to be passing by, so I thought I'd come and see Xin Xin."
"However, seeing that you two are both alright, I'm relieved."
“I was so worried when you two had a fight before.”
Upon hearing this, Su Xi laughed, took her mother's arm, and said in a coquettish tone:
"Mom, don't worry, Ah Le and I won't have any more conflicts in the future."
"We will definitely live a good life."
Hearing Su Xi's words, Su's mother smiled, gently patted Su Xi's head, and said:
"well."
"I'm relieved that you think this way."
After saying this, Su's mother stood up, looked at Chen Le and Su Xi, and said:
"Xiao Le, Xi Xi, I'm leaving now."
"Your dad is still at home waiting for me to cook."
Upon hearing Su's mother's words, Chen Le hurriedly spoke up as well:
"Mom, why don't you stay for lunch before you leave?"
Hearing Chen Le's words, Su's mother smiled and shook her head, then said:
"No need, I need to hurry back to cook for your dad."
"You don't need to see me off."
Upon hearing Su's mother's words, Chen Le and Su Xi had no choice but to nod in agreement.
They watched as Su's mother walked towards the door, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Su's mother didn't notice anything unusual, otherwise, they would have been in an awkward situation.
A moment later, Su's mother opened the door, glanced back at Chen Le and Su Xi, and smiled broadly.
As long as Chen Le and Su Xi can live a good life, she will be content.
Su's mother didn't say anything more and turned to walk downstairs.
Watching Su's mother's departing figure, Chen Le and Su Xi exchanged a smile and then closed the door.
The two returned to the living room and looked at the messy space, both showing a hint of embarrassment.
They never expected that Su's mother would suddenly come here, and they never expected that they had just been seen by Su's mother.
Fortunately, Su's mother didn't say anything, which relieved them.
"Ah Le, when are you planning to go to Hong Kong?"
Su Xi looked at Chen Le and asked.
Upon hearing this, Chen Le was slightly taken aback, and then said:
"The day after tomorrow."
"The situation over there is a bit urgent, I need to go and deal with it as soon as possible."
Hearing Chen Le's words, Su Xi nodded and then walked towards the room.
She had to quickly pack some clothes for Chen Le, otherwise Chen Le wouldn't have anything to wear when he went there.
Chen Le watched Su Xi's retreating figure, feeling a surge of emotion.
With a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?
However, when Su Xi entered the room and was about to pack Chen Le's clothes, she suddenly stopped what she was doing.
She seems to have... forgotten something.
Xin Xin is still at home!
Su Xi had originally planned to go to Hong Kong with Chen Le, but now it seems that the plan will fall through.
After all, Xin Xin is still at home; she can't just leave Xin Xin alone at home, can she?
Although her parents could help take care of Xin Xin, Su Xi felt it wasn't quite right.
Su Xi felt a little guilty for always troubling her parents, who were getting old.
Thinking of this, Su Xi sighed softly, a helpless expression appearing on her face.
Chen Le noticed that Su Xi seemed preoccupied, so he walked over to her and asked:
"Xixi, what's wrong with you?"
"Is something on your mind?"
Hearing Chen Le's words, Su Xi was slightly taken aback, then shook her head, looked at Chen Le, and said with some helplessness:
"Ah Le, I'm not going with you this time."
Chen Le nodded, roughly understanding the reason.
"Okay, then I'll go alone."
Hearing Chen Le's words, Su Xi breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Chen Le and said:
“Ah Le, I’m a little worried about you going to Hong Kong alone.”
"Why don't you take a few more bodyguards with you?"
Su Xi knew that Chen Le had some grudges with the Xiang family, and she was worried that Chen Le would suffer if he went alone.
Hearing Su Xi's words, Chen Le laughed, reached out and hugged Su Xi, and said:
"Don't worry, I'll be fine."
"However, since you put it that way, I'll take an extra bodyguard with me."
"However, we need to leave some people at home to protect you and your daughter, otherwise I won't feel at ease."
Upon hearing Chen Le's words, Su Xi nodded, looked at Chen Le, and said:
"Yes, you don't need to worry about things at home."
"Take a few more bodyguards with you, and be careful."
Hearing Su Xi's words, Chen Le laughed, gently patted Su Xi's head, and then said:
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
"This time I plan to take Bai Zhi with me."
