There is now confirmed news that Ye Chen is going to study in Shanghai.

Through his connections, Ye Chen successfully entered the School of Management at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics to study management.

After a series of procedures, Ye Chen will be able to go to Shanghai University of Finance and Economics in about a week.

In other words, the agreement between Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang can be fulfilled in a little over a week.

Ye Chen was really looking forward to going to Shanghai to study with Su Ningshuang... no, he was really looking forward to it.

After the afternoon classes ended, Ye Chen drove back to his villa.

As a result, when Ye Chen was halfway there, Su Ling'er suddenly called him.

"Brother-in-law, something bad has happened! My mom somehow found out that our school is having a parent-teacher conference today."

As soon as the call connected, Su Ling'er immediately spoke in a flustered manner.

"Your aunt found out so quickly?"

Ye Chen was also somewhat surprised.

It's only been half a day, that's so fast!

Under her mother's questioning, Su Ling'er had no choice but to tell her about the parent-teacher meeting that morning.

"Brother-in-law, my mom wants to invite you over for dinner. Are you coming? She probably wants to ask about the details of the parent-teacher meeting."

Su Ling'er continued.

I'll be at your house in a bit.

Ye Chen nodded.

"By the way, brother-in-law, I haven't told Mom about Yang Zizhen. Could you please help me keep it a secret for her? I'm afraid she'll worry."

Su Ling'er added.

Her parents divorced, and her mother had to take care of her alone and earn money to support the family. Su Ling'er didn't want her mother to worry too much about her.

"I see."

Ye Chen nodded.

Ye Chen felt that Su Ling'er had done nothing wrong in concealing Yang Zizhen's affair.

If my aunt finds out about this, as a mother, she might overthink it and be very worried.

Now that Yang Zizhen's matter has been resolved, there's no need to worry his aunt.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Chen turned around at an intersection and headed straight for Su Ling'er's house.

Knock knock knock!

Twenty minutes later, Ye Chen knocked on Su Ling'er's door.

A moment later, the door opened, and Su Ling'er peeked out.

"It's brother-in-law, come in quickly."

Su Ling'er invited Ye Chen in.

Su Ling'er's mother was cooking in the kitchen when she saw Ye Chen arrive and greeted him warmly:

"Xiao Chen, please sit for a while. Dinner will be ready soon."

Su Ling'er's mother had a very good impression of Ye Chen.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Auntie."

Ye Chen nodded, then went to the side and asked Su Ling'er about what she had told her mother about the parent-teacher meeting.

A dozen minutes later, Su Ling'er's mother had already brought the food to the table.

"Ling'er, Xiao Chen, dinner is ready."

Su Ling'er's mother spoke up.

"Xiao Chen, the meal wasn't very lavish. Next time you come, Auntie will prepare it earlier."

Su Ling'er's mother said apologetically that because of the rush, the preparations were not thorough.

"Auntie, you're too kind. This is already very kind of you."

Ye Chen spoke.

He's been eating out a lot lately and hasn't had home-cooked meals in a long time.

Ye Chen and Su Ling'er sat down, and the three of them ate and chatted.

During the meeting, Su Ling'er's mother inquired about the parent-teacher conference.

Ye Chen covered for Su Ling'er and didn't mention Yang Zizhen's matter.

Instead, it was said that Su Ling'er's study methods had recently run into some problems, which was why her grades had dropped.

Having gone through the college entrance exam myself, I've already talked to Su Ling'er about it.

Hearing Ye Chen say this, Su Ling'er's mother felt relieved and thanked Ye Chen.

Knock knock knock.

When they were halfway through their meal, there was another knock on the door.

However, this time the knocking was very loud, suggesting that the visitor had ill intentions.

Su Ling'er's mother got up and opened the door.

In an instant, a very fat middle-aged woman rushed in with two relatives.

"Wow, this looks good! There's fish and meat..."

After the plump woman entered, she looked at the four or five dishes on the table and said sarcastically.

Upon seeing the plump woman who brought the people, Su Ling'er's mother's face turned somewhat pale.

"The child is at home, shall we go out to talk?"

"Su Ling'er's mother said softly."

“Go outside and say it, haha, I’m going to say it in front of your child today.”

"Let your child know what kind of person you are?"

The plump woman directly rejected Su Ling'er's mother's request, and said loudly with a cold laugh.

"Do you know that your mother is a person with no integrity, a deadbeat who doesn't pay back her debts?"

The fat woman stared at Su Ling'er and said loudly.

"If you don't pay me back today, I'm going to move my things."

The fat woman threatened loudly.

"Give me three more days, and I will definitely pay you back. I've already contacted someone to prepare to mortgage the house."

Su Ling'er's mother pleaded.

The house was mortgaged?

Upon hearing this, Su Ling'er was stunned.

What happened at home?

My mother actually wants to mortgage the house.

Although her mother and father were divorced and no longer had any contact with the Su family, their family's financial situation was still considered above average.

Why is Mom mortgaging the house now?

She didn't believe her mother was the kind of deadbeat who wouldn't pay back her debts, the kind of person who didn't keep her word.

Something must have happened!
