The Reversal of a Son-in-law

After entering the room, Li Yuechan let go of Long Chen and said somewhat angrily, "Long Chen, your attitude just now was really bad, did you know that?"

"That's because their attitude was bad first. Why are you blaming me instead?" Long Chen was depressed.

"No matter what, they're still my parents. How can you treat your parents like this? if there's a problem, we can discuss it and solve it," Li Yuechan said earnestly.

"They're so domineering that they threaten and insult me by demanding a divorce at the drop of a hat. Do you think they're the kind of people who will sit down and talk with me?" Long Chen was starting to get a little angry as well.

Li Yuechan gritted her teeth and said, "It's not like you don't know their temper. Now that we've decided to be together for real, you have to be patient and slowly change their impression of you. Do you understand?"

"I do, so aren't I trying to change?"

"You call this an attempt? If you go against mom and dad like this, they'll only be more and more dissatisfied with you. In the end, I'm afraid we'll have to part ways. "

"Alright, I understand. So you're saying that in your heart, your family is more important, and whether I'm happy or not is not important to you, right?" Long Chen asked.

"I didn't say that. Don't talk nonsense. Let's get back to the main topic. Regarding the matter of asking you to lend me money, I ..."

"Alright, you don't have to say anymore. I've already borrowed the money," Long Chen interrupted, "You don't have to pay me back. I'll pay the loan back in the future."

With that, Long Chen took out the cheque and threw it on the bed.

Then, he got up and left.

"Where are you going?" Li Yuechan asked anxiously.

"It's too stuffy, I want to go out for some fresh air, don't look for me," Long Chen left quickly.

Li Yuechan picked up the cheque on the bed and glanced at the amount written on it. It was 50 million.

Then, she studied it carefully and confirmed that the cheque was authentic.

This made Li Yuechan both surprised and worried. Fifty million was not a small amount.

It must have been hard for Long Chen to borrow so much money from Gu Changming.

She thought of Long Chen's behavior the minute they got home, and her heart ached for him.

Long Chen should've wanted to say that he got the money at the first moment, but had been interrupted by her father. He was probably feeling depressed, yet she scolded him again after they returned to their room.

Thinking of this, Li Yuechan felt guilty. She quickly picked up her phone and called Long Chen.

However, the voice message told her that Long Chen had turned off his phone.

...

Long Chen walked around aimlessly, and somehow, he arrived at Zhao Churan's house.

He looked up and knocked on the door.

However, the person who opened the door wasn't Zhao Churan. Instead, it was a tall and handsome young man.

"You are?" The young man looked at Long Chen suspiciously.

Long Chen was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said,""I knocked on the wrong door, sorry."

With that, he turned around and left.

"Crazy guy," The young man muttered.

"Zhao Jie, who's that?" Zhao Churan's voice rang out.

"I don't know," Zhao Jie shook his head.

Zhao Churan swept her gaze over. When she saw Long Chen's back, she was instantly pleasantly surprised and hurriedly called out, "Long Chen, come back."

Long Chen stopped, feeling a little embarrassed.

Originally, he was in a bad mood and wanted to visit Zhao Churan to have a chat with her. He didn't expect to meet her boyfriend.

"Umm, I won't disturb you guys any longer," Long Chen forced himself to remain calm.

"What's there to disturb? You're not disturbing us," Zhao Churan ran forward and pulled Long Chen back.

"Sis, who is he? Your boyfriend?" Zhao Jie's eyes widened, and he was a little dumbfounded.

His sister, who had never been in a relationship, was now in love?

"Zhao Jie, you can go back now. This is none of your business," Zhao Churan said.

"Huh? But ..."

"I'll ask Long Chen to install the light bulb," Zhao Churan deliberately emphasized the word 'light bulb'.

Zhao Jie understood immediately, "Ha, umm, brother-in-law, I'll be leaving first. Please take care of my sister."

After he finished speaking, Zhao Jie left immediately.

"Little rascal, talking nonsense," Zhao Churan cursed in a bashful manner. However, a hint of strange sweetness appeared in her heart.

If she could get Zhao Jie a brother-in-law like this, it would not be too bad.

"I thought he was your boyfriend, but it turns out he's just your brother," Long Chen relaxed.

"I want a boyfriend, but I can't find one." Zhao Churan laughed.

"You're such an outstanding girl. The line of people who are after you can probably reach the horizon, right? It should be a piece of cake for you to find a boyfriend. "

"No, that's not true. Isn't there a man who doesn't want me right in front of me?" Zhao Churan laughed.

"I'm taken."

"Alright, alright, alright. Jokes aside, let's talk inside," Zhao Churan pulled Long Chen into the house and closed the door.

"What do you want to drink?" Zhao Churan asked.

"I don't feel like drinking anything. I'm a little hungry," Long Chen rubbed his stomach.

Although the breakfast at Gu Changming's house had been sumptuous, he hadn't eaten well.

"You're hungry? that's easy. The lightbulb in the kitchen is dead. Come with me to the kitchen and help me install a new one and I'll make you something delicious."

Sure," Long Chen immediately followed Zhao Churan into the kitchen.

"There, you can only reach it if you stand on a stool."

"Mm," Long Chen took the light bulb, stood on the stool, and quickly installed it.

He lowered his head and looked down at Zhao Churan. He was about to say something but was instantly stunned.

Zhao Churan was wearing a loose nightdress. It didn't seem special from the front, but from the top, the scene was quite grand and fascinating.

Furthermore, she wasn't even wearing a bra!

Zhao Churan saw Long Chen's dazed expression and immediately came to her senses.

However, she didn't scream. She didn't even get angry. She simply pretended not to know anything and laughed, "What's wrong? Hurry up and come down. "

"Uh, okay," Long Chen hurriedly jumped from the stool to the ground, his heartbeat rising.

"Wait for me outside. I'll cook for you. It'll take just a minute," Zhao Churan gently spoke.

"Okay," Long Chen walked out of the kitchen, feeling emotional.

How good would it be if Li Yuechan could be so gentle to him?

Though Long Chen felt that this was unrealistic.

Long Chen's impression of Li Yuechan had always been that she was cold and strong. Although she had restrained herself recently, she would still show it unintentionally.

For example, during the argument with Li Yuechan just now, she hadn't considered the problem from his perspective. Instead, she asked him to endure Li Shiqi and his wife's overbearing behavior.

Thinking of this, Long Chen took out his phone in frustration. He wanted to turn it on many times, but he held back.

Not long after, Zhao Churan finished whipping up three side dishes and a soup. She brought them to the table.

"It's time to eat," Zhao Churan curled her finger.

Long Chen stood up and walked to the dining table.

Zhao Churan passed a pair of chopsticks to Long Chen, and their fingers accidentally touched. Her face turned slightly red.

Long Chen also felt a little uncomfortable. The scene he had seen on the stool suddenly appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Churan a few times.

Zhao Churan felt incomparably embarrassed under his gaze. She couldn't help but scold, "Can't you just eat properly?"

"Cough, let's eat," Long Chen laughed awkwardly.

He didn't know that at this moment, flowers of happiness were blooming in Zhao Churan's heart.

He looked serious, but he was also awkwardly adorable.

He was probably peeking at her because he was attracted by her good figure.

Even though she hadn't seduced him on purpose, this was still an unexpected gain.

"Something's wrong, Zhao Churan. What are you thinking about?" Zhao Churan patted her reddened cheeks and scolded herself for letting her imagination run wild.

"Churan, what's wrong?" Long Chen was puzzled.

"I ... I'm fine," Zhao Churan hurriedly spoke.

"Why is your face so red? If you don't have a fever or any other illness, how can your face be so red? Am I seeing things? Give me your hand, I'll take your pulse," Long Chen said with a frown.

"Geez, you big idiot, just eat your food. I ... I'll just go wash my face," Zhao Churan hurriedly stood up and ran into the bathroom.

Long Chen shook his head and didn't think too much about it. He buried his head in his food.

After Zhao Churan came out of the bathroom, her expression had indeed returned to normal.

Looking at Long Chen, who was wolfing down the food, Zhao Churan felt inexplicably happy when she thought about how she was the one who had cooked the food.

"Eat slowly, no one's snatching it from you," Zhao Churan spoke in a soft voice.

"You're not eating?"

"I'm not hungry. By the way, you came here because you had a fight with your wife, right?" Zhao Churan suddenly asked.

Long Chen was instantly stunned. Then, he quickly cleaned the last few grains of rice in his bowl before replying to her, "We did quarrel a little."

"Tell me about it. You'll feel much better if you tell me. Then, maybe you can reconcile with your wife," Zhao Churan laughed.

"Can I?" Long Chen was a little hesitant.

Seeing this, Zhao Churan held Long Chen's hand and said in a low voice, "We agreed last time to be good friends who can talk about everything. If you don't want to be friends, you can treat me as your lover."

"Well, let's just be good friends," Long Chen said with a smile.

"First, tell me how you quarreled with her," Zhao Churan looked at Long Chen, her hand supporting her chin, her posture showing that she was listening attentively.

Long Chen pondered for a moment, then explained the reason to Zhao Churan.

After Zhao Churan heard the whole story, she actually stood up in anger, "Her parents are too much. The Li family doesn't pay you a salary, and you don't have any shares in their company either. Why should they ask you to borrow money for their investment? You're really stupid too. How could you give her 50 million so easily?"

"The whole reason I went to borrow money was to help the family, in the first place. I just didn't expect that as soon as we got home, Yuechan's father would humiliate me so badly before I could even say anything about it," Long Chen said with a bitter smile.

"Long Chen, have you ever thought about how you're going to pay back the 50 million if they kick you out halfway?"

"Which is why I have to make money," Long Chen said.

"Divorce Li Yuechan and we'll get married. I can do whatever Li Yuechan is unwilling to do, such as being intimate, having children, washing clothes, and cooking. How about it?" Zhao Churan stared at Long Chen with a half-joking, half-serious expression.

Long Chen was stunned. Had Zhao Churan gone crazy?
