The Rise of Dragon Son-in-Law
Chapter 304 - 295: Are You Capable or Not?

Chapter 304: Chapter 295: Are You Capable or Not?

Han Yun’s words had already lost their power to resist.

Of course, she hadn’t really planned on resisting.

She just worried that, with the heat, she might emit some odor that would make Long Chen uncomfortable.

But as it turned out, she was overthinking it.

Her body extremely healthy and always clean, she smelled nothing but pleasant.

...

Much later, Long Chen had a hearty meal at Han Yun’s house.

"Shall we go for a walk?"

Han Yun finished cleaning up and looked up at Long Chen.

"Mm, sure," Long Chen nodded.

The two set out together, but just as they reached the door, Han Yun froze.

Because coming towards them was a person.

The age of the newcomer was clearly over fifty.

She wore sunglasses and carried an expensive bag, her expression extremely cold.

"Mom, you... why are you here?"

Han Yun stared at the newcomer.

The woman with the bag scolded with a stern face, "I was wondering why you’ve always disliked me but suddenly were willing to let me take Xinxin for a few days. Turns out, you were planning to catch yourself a toy boy without a word."

"Mom, don’t put it so offensively, you said you wanted to take Xinxin out for a few days, and I thought, after all, we’re family. There’s no need to hold onto past grievances, so I let you take her, not because of him.

You took Xinxin away before he even returned to Qianzhou."

Han Yun patiently explained.

But the woman didn’t listen at all, "Han Yun, you’ve hated me for seven years because of your father’s death. I heard you tell others that I was dead, did you not?

But no matter what you say about me, now, I absolutely won’t allow you to just pick up any toy boy."

"Mom, he’s not a toy boy, he is..."

"Enough, enough, don’t explain, I’m not going to believe it," the woman interrupted Han Yun sternly, "Regardless, you absolutely must keep your distance from this man."

"Auntie, may I have a word?" Long Chen fixed his eyes on the woman, "I don’t know why you think I’m a toy boy at first sight, if being handsome is wrong, then frankly, I have nothing to say. But, I’m really not the toy boy you’re talking about, nor will I ask Han Yun for anything."

"Anecdotes, who would believe them?" the woman said with disdain, "Men your age are the most useless, without anything notable, just wanting to rely on a woman to skip twenty years of struggle, right?

Haha, my daughter Han Yun, though she has been married and has a daughter, has looks, has a figure, and is not lacking in money. I’ll just say it straight, you’re out of your league."

"Auntie..."

"Let me finish first," the woman rattled on, "Not to mention my daughter’s qualifications, just mine. In Qianzhou, I have eight properties, and my car is worth over a million. Just this alone, you’ll struggle your whole life and probably won’t reach a tenth of it.

With such favorable conditions, we’re top-tier wealthy in Qianzhou. I advise you to be sensible, not to humiliate yourself. My daughter is just playing with you, don’t take it seriously."

Long Chen was taken aback by these words.

He wasn’t surprised by the wealth of Han Yun’s mother, but shocked at how frighteningly materialistic Han Yun’s mother could be.

Han Yun couldn’t listen anymore and couldn’t help saying, "Mom, how much money you have, he doesn’t care. What’s the point of saying all this? Really, I advise you not to judge someone young and handsome as a freeloader. There’s no need to talk this way, you shouldn’t judge people like that."

"How else should I judge, huh? Just look at his clothes, clearly street vendor quality. What money could he have? And don’t make excuses for him. Even if he were to flash tens of millions now, that would be your money," the woman immediately said.

Long Chen, upon hearing this, was truly speechless.

Indeed, he had tens of millions in his account but revealing that now, after such words, he feared would really be ’humiliating oneself.’

So Long Chen didn’t bother to speak again and simply fell silent.

Han Yun looked at Long Chen and seeing his furrowed brows, she knew he was angry.

Thereupon, Han Yun spoke sternly, "Mom, I hope you stop being unreasonable. It doesn’t matter whether he has money or who he is; if I want to be with him, then you have no right to stop me. Everything I have today, I’ve fought for myself, not relying on anyone, much less you. So, you have even less right to interfere with my life."

"I will intervene. I don’t want to see you being deceived. No matter what you say, we are still mother and daughter," the woman said seriously. "This man, he’s just not suitable for you. If I didn’t sneak over today, I probably wouldn’t have found out you were seeing someone like this."

"Do you really know what kind of person he is?" Han Yun couldn’t bear it any longer and raised her voice, "He’s the owner of the Eastern Dragon Shadow Group. Is that identity not enough for you?"

"What?"

The woman was stunned.

"You heard me right, Dragon Shadow Group is his. I guess you’re not as wealthy as him, after all, you’re the one with eight houses in Qianzhou and a car worth over a million, very impressive," Han Yun said sarcastically.

"No...impossible."

The woman’s face turned somewhat pale, "He’s so young, it’s impossible for him to be the owner of Dragon Shadow Group, absolutely impossible. Don’t try to fool me, I’ll look it up myself."

While speaking, the woman took out her phone and searched for the owner of Dragon Shadow Group online.

Moments later, she actually found a photo, although it was a bit blurry.

After a comparison, the woman was so frightened that she quickly turned off her phone.

When she looked at Long Chen again, her arrogance had vanished without a trace.

"So...so you really are the owner of Dragon Shadow, I’m sorry for earlier, I was impulsive."

The woman immediately backed down.

She could afford to provoke most of the wealthy in Qianzhou, but she wouldn’t dare to offend Long Chen even if she had a hundred times the courage.

If Dragon Shadow Group stomped its foot, all she owned could probably vanish into thin air.

Long Chen glanced at the woman and said indifferently, "You are Han Yun’s mother, and I respect you as an elder. Therefore, I can pretend that nothing happened just now. If it were someone else causing such a scene, they probably would have been gone by now."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Long is magnanimous. Well, I won’t disturb you two any longer. Please come visit when you have the time. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now."

The woman hurriedly turned to leave.

"Wait, what about Xinxin?" Han Yun quickly asked.

"She’s at home, she’s fine, don’t worry, I’m going now."

The woman quickened her pace and soon disappeared from Long Chen and Han Yun’s sight.

Han Yun gave a wry smile and said, "That’s just the way my mom is. Not just you, even I find her repulsive. Don’t take her seriously."

"I won’t. Little Yunyun, it seems like you and your mom don’t have a great relationship. Why is that?" Long Chen asked curiously.

Han Yun said, "When I was nineteen, my dad was diagnosed with cancer. While he was lying in the hospital, my mom had affairs, not just one, and she pushed for a divorce with my dad, leading to his suicide by jumping off a building when he could have possibly been treated. Tell me, should I hate her?"

"It’s indeed hard not to hate her," Long Chen sighed.

"It was also because of this that, feeling disillusioned, I met my ex-husband. He was good at pretending, being so caring and attentive to me that he moved me, and I married him. But after we got married, everything changed."

Remembering this part of her past made Han Yun’s eyes red to this day.

Long Chen embraced Han Yun, soothing her softly, "It’s all in the past. You’re strong now, and there’s nothing that can bring you down anymore. If things ever get tough, I’m still here. I’ll stand by your side and shield you from all the storms. You’re not fighting alone."

"I believe you."

Han Yun nestled in Long Chen’s arms and then whispered very softly, "Long Chen, let’s have a child."

"Ah?"

Long Chen was astonished.

"I’m serious, not joking with you. My bestie always says I have a perky butt, good for bearing sons. What do you think, can we or can’t we?" Han Yun lifted her head slightly.

"I think it’s perky too."

"So, will we have one?"

"Leave it to fate."

"Hmph, you seem reluctant," Han Yun glared fiercely at Long Chen, "I won’t need your help raising the child. I’ll do it myself. In the future, my estate will be inherited by him and Xinxin together."

"That’s not a bad idea. In that case, how about we don’t go for a walk and instead ’work on it’ at home?"

Long Chen grinned mischievously.

"Are you up to it?" Han Yun was doubtful.

"You actually have such doubt? Unforgivable. Home it is, then. I’ll show you just how ’silly’ your question was," Long Chen teased.
