Chapter 57: I committed a crime, and naturally the law will punish me!
Unfortunately, I'll have to put things on hold for now regarding my parents.
Thinking of her parents, Chen Le felt a pang of sadness.
Over the years, his parents have really worried themselves sick over his messy affairs.
My father, in particular, became addicted to gambling, accumulating a mountain of debt and being the subject of gossip and criticism from neighbors and relatives.
Over the years, my father's back has become increasingly hunched.
Chen Le clenched his fist. After this was all over, he would definitely make a trip back to his hometown.
Look at Mom and Dad, and bring them over as soon as possible.
He wanted to straighten his father's back so that he would never bend over again...
This life is truly filled with arduous responsibilities and a long road ahead.
……
Twenty minutes later!
Chen Le arrived at the Su family's door and knocked.
The person who opened the door was none other than my sister-in-law, Liu Mengmeng.
"Oh, our great benefactor has arrived! Come in quickly!"
Liu Mengmeng smiled and handed Chen Le slippers.
"Sister-in-law... Sister Mengmeng, you don't need to be so polite, I can do it myself!"
Chen Le took the slippers, nervously rubbing his hands as he walked into the room.
"Don't just stand there, sit down."
Su Tieshan coughed lightly, got up and sat down in a chair, waving his hand.
"it is good……"
Although Chen Le sat down, he became increasingly reserved, scratching his head and unsure of what to say. He could only ask, "Um... where's Xin Xin?"
Although Su Tieshan didn't look directly at Chen Le, his eyebrows still twitched violently.
It seems... Chen Le has really changed.
This kid used to be cold and unreliable, but now he actually cares about Xin Xin.
But Su Tieshan didn't intend to interfere too much, after all, it concerned his daughter's happiness.
In any case, he would not allow Chen Le to cause any more trouble for his daughter.
Just then, Su Xi also led Xin Xin, who had just woken up, out of the room!
"Dad...it really is Dad!"
Xin Xin rubbed her eyes, thinking she was seeing things.
After confirming it was Chen Le, she rushed over with a smile.
"Xin Xin, it's Daddy! Daddy's here to see you!"
Chen Le smiled and squatted down, quickly picking up Xin Xin.
"Have you missed your dad?"
Xin Xin wrapped her arms around Chen Le's neck and shook him vigorously, saying, "Yes!"
Have you been sneezing lately?
Chen Lexin was almost melting, and she gently stroked her daughter's nose with her hand and asked with a smile.
At this moment, even the wealth of the entire world could not buy this moment of warmth.
What is the meaning of making money? It is to be able to enjoy family time with a clear conscience.
He didn't want his precious daughter to suffer any more.
"Yes, I sneeze every day."
Xin Xin pouted and said,
They look incredibly cute.
"That's because your dad misses you every day, that's why you're sneezing."
Chen Le explained.
"But Mommy is sneezing too, and you miss Mommy every day, don't you?"
When Xin Xin asked that question...
Chen Le was stunned.
Su Xi, who was standing next to her, trembled.
She quickly turned her head away, not daring to look at Chen Le.
"Dad misses you, and he misses Mom too."
Chen Le pinched her daughter's little face.
"Dad is the best!"
Xin Xin chuckled and gave Chen Le a quick kiss on the cheek.
At this moment, everyone was stunned.
Even Su Xi was stunned.
Even Su Tieshan and Zhang Xiuqin, the couple, kept nodding in agreement.
Children don't lie.
They had all witnessed the extent of Xin Xin's fear of Chen Le!
But what they are seeing right now is something even they envy.
This only shows that Chen Le has truly reformed, turned over a new leaf, and is now able to shoulder the responsibilities of a father.
"Alright, Xin Xin, it's time to eat. Go wash your hands."
At this moment, Su Xi spoke up seriously.
"Dad, Mom won't let us play anymore."
Xin Xin pouted and said.
"Listen to Mom, let's wash our hands, then eat our food, and after we finish eating, we'll play!"
Chen Le said with a smile.
"Yes, I'll listen to Dad, not Mom."
As she spoke, Xin Xin sounded just like an adorable little sloth.
Clinging to Chen Le, it refused to get down no matter what!
Chen Le then carried her to wash her hands and dried them.
Even through a wall, you could hear the father and daughter laughing!
Su Xi sat in the chair, completely lost.
They had completely forgotten to eat.
Hearing Chen Le and Xin Xin's childish conversation, she couldn't help but smile.
"Xiaoxi, look! Chen Le seems to have really changed!"
Mengmeng also smiled and said to Su Xi.
Su Xi lowered her head and remained silent.
Su Dalong snorted coldly, pouring cold water on the situation, and said, "Hmph, acting is his specialty! A leopard can't change its spots, you know that!"
"He's acted out family dramas before, and you actually believed him!"
Su Tieshan coldly rebuked, "Shut up!"
Reprimanded by his father, Su Dalong didn't dare to argue back, but just crossed his arms with a disdainful look on his face.
At this moment, Chen Le also brought Xin Xin back to their seats.
"Xin Xin, come to Grandma's, Daddy needs to eat too."
Zhang Xiuqin winked at Chen Le and reached out to take Xin Xin from him.
Chen Le knew that his father-in-law definitely had something to say to him.
Sure enough, Su Tieshan poured Chen Le a glass of wine and asked, "Chen Le, what have you been busy with lately?"
Chen Le looked up and said seriously, "Dad, I've been making investments recently, and they've been going quite well. I've made a lot of money."
"If you or Mom need anything, don't hesitate to call me anytime!"
"I owe you two so much, and I should make it up to you in some way."
Su Tieshan carefully examined Chen Le, sighed, and said, "My wife and I lack nothing."
"Chen Le, if you have this kind of heart, then take good care of Xin Xin. Don't cause trouble for Su Xi!"
Zhang Xiuqin wiped away her tears and said in a pleading tone, "Yes, Xiaoxi was raising her child, taking care of you, and going to work all the time!"
"It's not easy for her, a young woman, to raise a child alone."
Chen Le took a deep breath, looked at Zhang Xiuqin, and said with a smile, "Mom, you two can supervise me from now on. If I ever act like a scoundrel again, you can beat me to death without any complaints."
he knows.
The Su family didn't value money or economic conditions.
If money was the only thing that mattered, then out of all the wealthy young men who pursued Su Xi, she wouldn't have had a chance.
It's all for that initial feeling.
Today, I must show my determination to my parents!
Liu Mengmeng leaned close to Zhang Xiuqin's ear and whispered a few words of affection.
Zhang Xiuqin then stopped crying and smiled, saying with emotion, "Alright, Xiaoxi finally has some personal space now, and can finally go to work and raise her child properly."
Chen Le shook his head and said with a smile, "Mom, actually with my current abilities, Xiaoxi doesn't need to work at all. I can support them and give them the best life!"
"I'm warning you, Chen Le, they believe you, but I don't!"
Su Dalong, who had been silently smoking to the side, suddenly stood up!
"You're a lousy gambler, you have no resources, no connections, and suddenly you've turned your life around. What else is that but breaking the law!"
"You're the kind of person who can't change his nature!"
"You can just pull out over a million yuan like that? And claim it's from a clean source? You're kidding me!"
"With that filthy money of yours, you'll be arrested and thrown in jail sooner or later!!"
"I have no idea what shady things you've been doing, or where you've gotten the money from!"
Chen Le sneered, his gaze turning coldly to Su Dalong, and said in a chilling voice, "I'll repeat myself, the money I earned was perfectly clean!"
"If I really commit a crime, the law will punish me!"
