It’s almost Friday.
Ma Lan woke up early to pack her suitcases because she was leaving for New York today. Now, she was just about ready to head home.
In the afternoon, after Xiao Churan got out of class, Charlie Wade picked up Ma Lan and Xiao Churan at the school gate. The three of them then drove straight to New York.
Charlie Wade had a plan for their trip. After they arrived in New York Friday night, he wanted to take Ma Lan to see the city’s nightlife and visit the Statue of Liberty. On Saturday, they would explore more of New York, and on Sunday, Ma Lan could go shopping before he took her to the airport in the afternoon.
Even though Ma Lan’s time in the United States was short, she wanted to make the most of it. She planned to buy some New York souvenirs and local specialties.
During the drive, Ma Lan sat in the back seat, took out her phone, and sent a message to Zong Qiuhua to let him know she would arrive in New York tonight.
Zong Qiuhua quickly replied with a voice message. To keep it private from Charlie Wade and his daughter, Ma Lan converted the voice message into text.
The message read: “Ma Lan, I had planned to treat you to a big meal and show you around New York since I’m your host. But since you’re leaving for China in a couple of days, I have a lot to take care of here in the U.S., and I’m really busy. I’m sorry! After we arrive on Hong Kong Island, don’t rush back to the mainland. I have a place on Shixun Road on Hong Kong Island. You can stay with me for a few days, and I’d love to show you my hospitality before you head back to the mainland.”
Ma Lan was feeling a mix of emotions as she read the speech recognition text. At first, she was a bit let down by the first half, but then her excitement grew when she reached the second half.
She thought to herself, “I’ve grown up so much and never visited Hong Kong Island. This time, I have a layover there, but I’ll only be there for a few hours. Since I have this chance, why not spend a few days on Hong Kong Island? After all, Zong Qiuhua has money, and I could enjoy some nice meals with her.”
Feeling happy about the idea, she quickly replied, “Okay! I don’t have any important plans when I get back, so I might as well stay on Hong Kong Island for a few days. I hope I won’t be a bother!”
The other person responded right away, saying, “With Sister Chen’s connection, you’re always welcome! But I have to run now. Let’s chat more at the airport!”
“No problem!” Ma Lan replied cheerfully. She then turned to her son-in-law, Marven Ye, and asked with a hint of curiosity, “Oh, good son-in-law, didn’t you just come back from Hong Kong Island? Do you know where Shi Xun Dao is?”
Charlie Wade looked surprised and asked, “Mom, why are you asking about that all of a sudden?”
Ma Lan replied, “I saw it on my Moments. A friend said it’s a famous place, and I’d never heard of it before, so I thought I’d ask you.”
Charlie Wade didn’t think much of it and casually explained, “Shi Xun Dao is a luxury neighborhood on Hong Kong Island. The most expensive houses are there, and it’s where the richest people live.”
“Wow!” Ma Lan exclaimed, amazed by the information.
Ma Lan exclaimed, “This place is so powerful!”
As she spoke, she felt a growing admiration for Zong Qiuhua’s strength.
Unbeknownst to her, the smooth-talking Zong had already made a big impression on her, creating a strong image of wealth and success in her mind, even though they had never met.
Filled with excitement, Ma Lan started planning her upcoming trip. She decided to spend two days enjoying New York, then fly to Hong Kong Island, where she would explore the most luxurious areas for a few days.
