Invincible Young Master in the City
Chapter 400 - 400 396 Ye Fan's Mom Arrives

400: Chapter 396 Ye Fan’s Mom Arrives 400: Chapter 396 Ye Fan’s Mom Arrives Around 5:30 a.m., Ye Fan got out of bed and practiced the Rising Dragon Stance in his room.

He continued to practice until 7 a.m.

when he finally finished.

Guessing that Li Zhaojun had already washed up and dressed, Ye Fan walked out and went to knock on Li Zhaojun’s bedroom door.

However, before he could knock, he noticed the door was slightly ajar.

He knocked and called out twice, but still received no response from inside.

Ye Fan pushed the door open and entered, only to find the room empty.

Li Zhaojun must have already gone downstairs to have breakfast.

Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that what he had dreamt did not happen and also because it gave him a chance to change his underwear.

About seven or eight minutes later, Ye Fan came downstairs to the dining room on the first floor and, indeed, saw Li Zhaojun sitting elegantly at the dining table, looking radiant and neatly dressed, enjoying her breakfast.

Li Zhaojun saw Ye Fan come in, put down her delicate porcelain bowl and spoon, picked up a pristine cotton napkin to lightly dab her lips, then looked up at Ye Fan with a smile and said, “You’re up.

Have breakfast.”

Ye Fan responded and sat down to eat.

“Did you sleep well last night?” Li Zhaojun casually asked.

Ye Fan felt a bit uneasy and said, “Uh, pretty well.”

“Come back here for dinner tonight as well.

I’ll have the chef prepare your portion,” Li Zhaojun added.

Ye Fan nodded.

Although Li Zhaojun had started her breakfast before Ye Fan, he ate quickly, and as a result, they finished eating at the same time and left the house together to go to work.

Wednesday finally arrived.

Around 3 p.m., Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun went to the airport to pick up Ye Fan’s mother, Qiao Feixuan.

At 3:12 p.m., Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun finally met Qiao Feixuan as she walked out.

Qiao Feixuan, dressed stylishly and looking relaxed, had only a Chanel handbag hanging from her left wrist.

Even her luggage was carried by her two female and one male subordinates who followed closely behind her.

To play the part and prevent Ye Fan from suspecting her true purpose in coming to Hua Hai, she not only brought three subordinates with her but also took care of some business in Hua Hai personally.

Qiao Feixuan walked out of the VIP passage with commanding energy, and Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun approached with smiles.

“Mom,” Ye Fan called out joyfully.

Li Zhaojun also called out, “Mom.”

Qiao Feixuan walked up to Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun, scanned them both with her bright eyes, and then smiled satisfactorily, nodding.

Then, she reached out and warmly grabbed Li Zhaojun’s delicate hand, saying, “Zhao Jun, you’ve lost weight.

Have you been too busy with work?”

Seeing this, Ye Fan felt a pang of jealousy; it used to be his mother who affectionately held his hand and told him he had lost weight after a long separation, even though he had never actually lost weight.

“Thanks for your concern, Mom,” Li Zhaojun replied with a smile, showing a bit of filial respect.

“I’m managing work alright.”

Qiao Feixuan was still holding Li Zhaojun’s hand when she turned to Ye Fan.

He met her gaze with a smile, thinking Qiao Feixuan would also comment on his weight.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Feixuan suddenly gave him a stern look and scolded, “Young man, look at your wife, so thin, and there you are, idle as a grandfather.

Don’t just stand around; help out and share some of her workload!”

With a wry smile, Ye Fan spread his hands, unable to defend himself; he rarely involved himself with the affairs of Emali Group.

“Mom, you’re misunderstanding Ye Fan.

He’s helped me through several tough situations recently,” Li Zhaojun said with a smile.

Qiao Feixuan still didn’t let Ye Fan off the hook and heavily criticized him for a few more sentences, saying Ye Fan was just like his father who didn’t know how to empathize with his wife.

Ye Fan could only grimace and take the scolding.

Qiao Feixuan scolded Ye Fan until he couldn’t hold his head up, then turned around and showed warm and gentle concern for Li Zhaojun.

Ye Fan felt very embarrassed, being such a grown man still scolded publicly to the point where he couldn’t hold his head up, so he suggested, “Mom, you must be tired from just getting off the plane.

Let’s go home first.”

Qiao Feixuan did pay attention to Ye Fan’s dignity, so she turned around and said to her three subordinates standing more than two meters away, “You guys go to the pre-booked hotel.

We’ll talk about work tomorrow morning.”

“Yes, Director Qiao,” the three subordinates respectfully replied, “Director Qiao, your luggage.”

Ye Fan stepped forward to take Qiao Feixuan’s luggage and politely said to the three subordinates, “Thank you, you’ve been working hard.”

“Goodbye, Director Qiao.” The three subordinates called out in unison, then they bypassed Qiao Feixuan, Ye Fan, and Li Zhaojun and left first.

After Qiao Feixuan’s three subordinates had left, Ye Fan and the others also walked towards the parking lot.

Qiao Feixuan and Li Zhaojun walked in front arm in arm, chatting and laughing.

Ye Fan, with a bitter face, dragged two heavy suitcases behind them, and dressed plainly, he looked just like an airport baggage handler.

Reaching the parking lot, Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun, wanting to show a good marital relationship in front of Qiao Feixuan, had only brought over Li Zhaojun’s Maserati.

After putting the luggage into the trunk, Ye Fan got into the driver’s seat to drive, while Li Zhaojun and Qiao Feixuan sat in the back, whispering and occasionally bursting into laughter.

As Ye Fan drove, hearing the laughter and whispers coming from behind him, he suddenly remembered how online discussions often said mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships tend to be tense, yet the pair behind him was unusually harmonious.

Especially his mother—it seemed like she was ready to ditch her son for her daughter-in-law.

However, he didn’t dwell much on this; he soon became worried about how he would spend the evening.

His mother was finally staying in Li Zhaojun’s villa, which meant he had to sleep in the same room as Li Zhaojun tonight.

Of course, deep down, he was secretly looking forward to it, hoping for the sun to set sooner and then…

Ye Fan felt ashamed of his indecent thoughts and shook his head with a wry smile.

Half an hour later, they finally returned to Li Zhaojun’s villa.

After moving the luggage to the second floor, Qiao Feixuan’s room was already prepared.

Due to the fatigue from the flight, Qiao Feixuan had a light meal, freshened up a bit, then went to rest.

Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun, worrying about disturbing Qiao Feixuan, moved down to the first-floor living room to drink tea and chat.

During their conversation, Li Zhaojun brought up the plan for where to take Qiao Feixuan out on Saturday.

Ye Fan wasn’t keen on tourism and had no suggestions, leaving Li Zhaojun to make decisions.

“Although Hua Hai has many attractions, Mom has probably visited them before, and besides, Hua Hai is crowded and its air quality isn’t great.

I think we should go to a scenic spot outside of Hua Hai,” Li Zhaojun suggested.

“How about Zhouzhuang Ancient Town?”

“Are you talking about the Jiangnan Ancient Town, Zhouzhuang, written about by Yu Qiuyu?” Ye Fan asked, suddenly interested.

“Is it close to Hua Hai?”

Zhouzhuang is the number one water town of Hua, founded in 1086 during the Yuan You era of the Northern Song dynasty, and recognized by Yu Qiuyu as the last Jiangnan ancient town, also known as “the irreplaceable Zhouzhuang.”

“Of course, it’s near Hua Hai, and the distance isn’t over a hundred kilometers.

I guess Mom would like to walk there,” Li Zhaojun smiled.

Ye Fan also guessed his mother would enjoy visiting Zhouzhuang, so he smiled and said, “Alright, let’s go to Zhouzhuang then.

You’ve thought this through well.

Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.

It’s what I should do,” Li Zhaojun replied.
