Chapter 119: Promise

Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Promise

Zhao Churan didn’t know what Long Chen was thinking, but when she heard he wanted to go home with her to meet her parents, all her weariness vanished.

"Husband, wait just a moment for me, I’ll get ready quickly, and then I’ll take you home to meet Mom and Dad."

Zhao Churan smiled radiantly.

"Okay, I’ll wait for you."

Li Xiu pinched Zhao Churan.

"Hey, stop it, or I’ll get excited again, and you’ll be responsible."

Zhao Churan gave Long Chen a nudge and quickly got up, rushing into the room.

Long Chen was not idle either, he took out his phone and, after doing some operations, he satisfactorily put away his phone.

About twenty minutes later, Zhao Churan finally came out, all dressed up.

She wore a white knee-length dress that perfectly accentuated her lovely figure.

For a moment, Long Chen was a bit stunned.

"Husband, do I look pretty?"

Zhao Churan asked softly, twirling in front of Long Chen.

The use of the word "husband" made Long Chen feel as if his bones had turned to jelly.

"Churan, I think maybe we should go see your parents in an hour instead."

Long Chen got up and wrapped his arms around Zhao Churan.

"Why?" Zhao Churan was puzzled.

"Because you look enchanting."

Long Chen blinked his starry eyes.

"Oh, you bad boy, you can’t do this; be nice to me, okay?"

Zhao Churan spoke in a pitiable tone.

"Ha ha, alright then, I’ll let you off this time, let’s go, it’s time to leave."

Long Chen held Zhao Churan’s hand.

Zhao Churan smiled contentedly and then whispered, "Husband, why don’t you go ahead and take Yuechan too? That way, I’ll feel less pressure. Otherwise, by myself, it’s too much for me to handle."

"Cough, we’ll talk about it later."

Long Chen chuckled.

Of course, he wanted to "take" Li Yuechan, but Long Chen felt that even though he and Li Yuechan loved each other, there were still many issues between them.

The biggest issue was undoubtedly from Li Yuechan’s parents.

Long Chen wouldn’t dare to touch Li Yuechan unless the conflict with her family was well managed.

Otherwise, if they truly couldn’t make it work in the future, it would be unfair to Li Yuechan.

Soon after, the two of them arrived at Zhao Churan’s parents’ home.

As soon as they entered, Zhao Churan’s mother, Sun Yan, excitedly grabbed Zhao Churan’s hand and whispered, "Have you seen all these things in the living room? We suddenly received them, and they’re all very valuable gifts. Your father estimated their worth at around two to three million."

"What? What’s going on?"

Zhao Churan was stunned.

"You don’t know either? I thought they were from Long Chen."

Sun Yan said.

"He didn’t mention it to me."

Zhao Churan turned and looked at Long Chen.

Long Chen smiled slightly; indeed, these were the gifts he had arranged to be sent.

It was during the time Zhao Churan was putting on makeup...

These days, as long as you had money, sending such gifts could be incredibly simple and fast.

"Long Chen, what’s going on? This definitely has something to do with you, right?"

Zhao Churan asked Long Chen.

Long Chen laughed, then said, "I’ve been thinking for a long time; I haven’t brought any gifts over yet, which is rather embarrassing, so I just sent something as a gesture. Auntie, Uncle, I hope you don’t mind."

"Mind? You, child, why spend so much money on these things? After you and Churan get married, there will be plenty of other expenses, this is such a waste."

Upon learning it was Long Chen, Sun Yan was both surprised and shocked.

Long Chen could see that Sun Yan was not just being polite, but she was genuinely scolding him for spending too much on gifts.

Zhao Zexiang gave Long Chen a sidelong glance and snorted coldly, "This time you’ve shown some sense, kid. I can see your sincerity."

"Uncle Zhao, with your keen insight, I can’t afford to be anything but meticulous," Long Chen said with a smile.

"Being able to spend millions on a gift shows your sincerity, and I believe you truly care for my daughter.

A few days ago, I heard Churan say she wants to move into your place. Where is the house you bought?" Zhao Zexiang asked.

"Uncle Zhao, why don’t you pick a time, and I’ll take you to see it?" said Long Chen.

"That’s fine, no need to choose a specific date. Let’s do it today. If I’m satisfied, I’ll agree to let Churan live with you," Zhao Zexiang said.

"Old Zhao, can you not be so blunt, it’s hurtful to the kids," Sun Yan chided Zhao Zexiang with a glance.

"I’m only thinking of my daughter’s best interest," Zhao Zexiang said.

"Enough with the excuses," Sun Yan said, casting a glance at Zhao Zexiang before turning to Long Chen with a smile. "Your Uncle Zhao is very straightforward, just ignore him. As for the house viewing, we do need to know where you’ll be living. We won’t make things difficult based on the house’s size. I promise you right now, no matter how big or small the house is, I’ll let Churan go with you, and a wedding can be arranged later."

Long Chen and Zhao Churan both were overwhelmed with joy.

"Thank you, mom."

Zhao Churan excitedly threw herself into Sun Yan’s arms.

"You’re an adult now, no more acting like a child."

Sun Yan laughed as she hugged Zhao Churan.

Long Chen also thanked them earnestly. "Uncle Zhao, Auntie, rest assured, I will take great care of Churan and not let her suffer the slightest bit. If I fail, may lightning strike me."

"Don’t say such things!"

Zhao Churan hastily interjected.

"Churan, I’m serious," Long Chen said.

"I know you’re serious, but you can’t just make oaths like that. When two people live together, aren’t there always times when they argue? There will always be moments of hardship, right? So, I won’t allow you to make rash oaths," Zhao Churan said quietly.

"So, my goal is to never let you endure any hardship. That’s my lifelong aim," Long Chen declared.

"Just knowing you feel that way is satisfying enough for me," Zhao Churan said with a sweet smile.

"Alright, let’s get going and see Long Chen’s place," Zhao Zexiang stood up.

"So soon?"

Long Chen was taken aback.

Zhao Zexiang glared at Long Chen and said, "You’re the one who came over and brought all these gifts. You must be the one in a hurry, right? Are we going or not? If not, forget it."

"We’re going, we’re going! Should we get going now, Uncle Zhao?"

"Let’s go," Zhao Zexiang nodded.

"Churan, send a WeChat message to Brother Li, tell him he doesn’t need to work today. We have guests over," Long Chen told Zhao Churan.

Zhao Churan was momentarily stunned, then quickly caught on.

Brother Li, it’s obviously Li Yuechan.

She immediately lowered her head and sent a WeChat message to Li Yuechan.

If Churan’s parents knew that Long Chen already had a first wife living at his house, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Moments later, Zhao Churan gave Long Chen an ’OK’ sign with her hand, putting him at ease.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Long Chen led Zhao Churan’s family to the Emperor Villa District.

When Zhao Zexiang and his wife saw Long Chen’s super luxurious mansion, both were instantly dumbfounded.

Churan, visiting for the first time, also widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Is... is this really your house?" Zhao Zexiang rubbed his eyes hard.

"You’re not joking, are you, Long Chen?" Sun Yan also asked excitedly, her voice trembling slightly.
