Chapter 667: Chapter 670: A Gift
Looking at Jiang Shan, who was now pretending to "seriously" watch the news, Yang Chen couldn't really do anything to his mother-in-law. He shook his head and sighed, deciding to head to the backyard to have some quiet time alone.
Cai Ning also felt a bit tired. She pulled her frustrated sister along, and the two of them left the living room with Yang Chen.
After the three of them left, Cai Yuncheng turned to Jiang Shan and sighed, "Ah, you really caused a scene. I guess Yang Chen and our two daughters are going to have a headache for a while."
Jiang Shan lifted her head, the previous look of guilt completely gone, and she snorted with a somewhat proud smile, "Do you really think your wife is a fool, without a brain? I can't guess what those young people are up to? I knew that kid Yang Chen wouldn't be so honest, so I deliberately made that call."
Cai Yuncheng was taken aback, opened his mouth, and then gave a wry smile, "You, what should I say to you? Why bother?"
"Why not bother?" Jiang Shan puffed out her chest and said, "I'm being proactive. How can I not take care of my daughter's lifelong happiness? Even though Yang Chen is the eldest son of the Yang family, making him a good match, our daughter is still the younger one. If we don't support her a bit, what if she gets pushed aside by other women in the future? Just by looking at Yang Chen's character, you can tell he's not the type to stand up tall in front of his wife. We need to take the initiative! We absolutely cannot act like a third party; we must be legitimate and take the lead!"
Cai Yuncheng patted the armrest of the sofa and said, "You make it sound like a war. Although Yang Chen isn't the type of man who is too assertive, he's not someone you can easily change. That kid may seem easy-going, but he has his own limits that he won't let anyone cross. No matter what we do, the position of the rightful daughter-in-law of the Yang family already belongs to Ruoxi. Don't be too demanding. I believe that with Elder Yang's character, he would never mistreat the woman who bears his grandson."
Jiang Shan narrowed her eyes and smiled, "I know that too, and I don't plan to actually undermine Ruoxi's position. It's just that, after all, we have two daughters. The sisterly bond is clear, and even if their looks aren't as good as Ruoxi's, being together in comparison won't necessarily make them inferior. As long as we support them a bit more, they will definitely receive more attention. To be honest, we watched Ruoxi grow up, but when it comes to Yan Yan and Ning'er's happiness and the closeness between the Cai and Yang families, we need to fight for it."
Cai Yuncheng crossed his legs and took a sip of tea, saying, "Since things have come to this, do as you please. I really underestimated your thoughts."
Jiang Shan snorted coldly and laughed disdainfully, "Old Cai, stop pretending with me. We've been married for almost thirty years, sharing the same bed every night. I can guess what you're thinking with a blink of your eye. Don't think I don't know your thoughts? If you wanted to stop me from making that call, how could you not stop me? You clearly wanted me to make that call and are just using my hand. Don't argue with me; I know your ways."
Exposed, Cai Yuncheng's face turned awkward, and he scratched his chin, laughing sheepishly, "Madam, you are wise, very wise. I'm also thinking about the bigger picture, thinking about our daughters, hehe..."
Yang Chen naturally didn't know about this conversation between the scheming couple in the living room. In fact, the matter had already happened, so he didn't care whether Jiang Shan and her husband did it intentionally.
After returning to the backyard, the silent Cai Ning quietly went back to her own room, while Yang Chen went with Cai Yan to her room.
Sitting on Cai Yan's bed, Yang Chen didn't speak and was lost in thought, considering what to do next.
Seeing Yang Chen deep in thought, Cai Yan silently tidied up the room and then took her change of clothes to the bathroom to wash up.
After a while, Yang Chen still hadn't thought of a way to appease Lin Ruoxi. Instead, he remembered that he hadn't checked on Mo Qianni and Ma Guifang since he left Zhonghai.
Yang Chen pondered that Ma Guifang might have calmed down and Mo Qianni should be feeling better. So, he picked up his phone and dialed Mo Qianni's number to discuss with her how to persuade her mother once he returned to Zhonghai.
The phone was picked up after only a few rings.
"Why did you think of calling me?" Mo Qianni's voice sounded a bit weary but also quite happy.
Yang Chen could imagine that she hadn't had an easy time lately. Unlike him, she didn't have thick skin or a strong heart. With pity in his voice, he said, "I've always been thinking about our situation but didn't dare call you casually. I wanted to wait until you felt better. How are you? Feeling any better?"
"I'm fine," Mo Qianni smiled. "There's been a lot going on at the company lately. Keeping busy helps me forget many things. I just got home and was about to have dinner. You..."
Before Mo Qianni could finish, Ma Guifang's voice suddenly came from the other end.
"Is that Yang Chen?! Are you trying to drive me mad?! How many times have I told you! Don't contact him again!" Ma Guifang shouted loudly, snatching the phone from Mo Qianni. She yelled at Yang Chen, "Yang Chen, I'm warning you again! You are absolutely not allowed to be with my daughter! Do you hear me?! If you continue like this, I'll take her back to our hometown, and you won't have a chance! Don't call again!"
Before Yang Chen could react, Ma Guifang hung up the phone!
Yang Chen was left feeling deflated. He hadn't expected Ma Guifang's emotions to still be so intense. It seemed he would have to go back to Zhonghai and confront her in person. A phone call would only make things harder for Mo Qianni.
Looking at the date on his phone, Yang Chen muttered to himself, "It's about time to go back."
Just then, the bathroom door opened, and Cai Yan, having just finished her shower, came out with only a simple white towel wrapped around her. Her bare, white feet stepped onto the floor.
"Stop daydreaming and go take a shower," Cai Yan said with a smile, while using a towel to dry her damp shoulder-length black hair.
Yang Chen laughed mischievously, "You're right, one thing at a time. First, I need to receive my 'gift.'"
With that, he rushed over like a gust of wind, gave Cai Yan a quick kiss on the cheek, and immediately dashed into the bathroom to shower.
After a cold shower, Yang Chen decided to put aside his worries and, not bothering to get dressed, just dried himself off and ran back into the bedroom.
As soon as he stepped out of the bathroom, the sight before him made his breath catch and his nose feel like it might start bleeding.
Cai Yan, who had been wrapped in a towel moments ago, had changed into an outfit, and a police uniform no less!
She was now standing in a pair of lemon-yellow crystal high heels. The rose-red lace lingerie underneath outlined her slender legs, and the police uniform skirt ended well above her knees. Above that, the green police shirt had several buttons undone.
Yang Chen could clearly see that Cai Yan was wearing matching rose-red lace lingerie underneath, and the deep cleavage illuminated under the light, creating an ivory glow.
Cai Yan, clearly nervous but resolute, lowered her head shyly, not daring to look at Yang Chen. She murmured, "I told you in the car that I had a gift for you. Do you like it?"
Although Yang Chen had always fantasized about Cai Yan wearing a police uniform during their intimate moments, he never imagined she would actually do it so proactively, and with just lingerie underneath.
The rose-red lace against her delicate skin created a striking visual impact, a blend of heroic vigor and feminine allure that blossomed all at once!
Yang Chen felt like he was about to explode in a particular area. Without a second thought, he pounced on her with a fervor, answering Cai Yan's question with the simplest action.
"Umm!..."
