The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 4661

After they finished talking, Ma Lan said seriously, “You two can’t tell anyone about this. We can’t let Mom go back!”

Xiao Churan looked at her husband, Charlie Wade, and asked, “What do you think, Husband?”

Charlie smiled a little and replied, “Since Mom has already shared this with others, it wouldn’t be right for us not to go.”

Ma Lan quickly agreed and said, “At a time like this, I really need my good son-in-law!”

She then added, “Let’s make it official. Tomorrow at six in the afternoon, we’ll go together. Chu Ran, you go to your class as usual. Good son-in-law, come with me to buy some gifts. It’s our first time visiting someone’s house, so we shouldn’t show up empty-handed.”

Seeing that Charlie had agreed, Xiao Churan nodded and said, “Okay then.”

The next afternoon, Ma Lan called Charlie Wade, and they drove around downtown Providence. They stopped at several gift shops, and finally, with Charlie’s suggestion, they decided on a beautiful set of tableware that cost several hundred dollars.

Charlie thought that since they were going as friends, the gift shouldn’t be too expensive, or it might seem insincere. Ma Lan understood that Sister Chen’s family seemed wealthy, so the cost of the gift didn’t matter much; it was really the thought that counted.

By 5:30, they picked up Xiao Churan at her school and then Charlie drove to the community where the other family lived, using the location that Sister Chen had sent to Ma Lan. It was about ten kilometers away from the city center.

The road conditions were excellent, so the drive was quick, taking about 20 minutes. This community in Providence is very upscale. The buildings are spread out, and the appearance of the homes, the greenery, and the roads are all well taken care of.

As they approached the entrance, they noticed police cars parked on the main road. In the United States, having police on duty in a community is a sign of its strength, as it’s quite expensive to maintain this level of security. Many average communities can’t afford it.

Following the directions, Charlie Wade parked in front of a beautiful three-story villa. Just then, the door of the low fence opened, and Sister Chen, a woman about the same age as Ma Lan and a good friend of hers, came out to greet them.

“Oh, Ma Lan, you’re here!” Sister Chen exclaimed, her face lighting up. After a moment, she noticed Charlie Wade and Xiao Churan getting out of the car. With a warm smile, she said, “These two must be your daughter and son-in-law, right? Welcome! Come in and sit down!”

Although Charlie Wade felt that Sister Chen’s enthusiasm seemed a bit forced, he didn’t dwell on it. After Ma Lan exchanged a few friendly words with her, Charlie and Xiao Churan followed Sister Chen inside the villa.
