Chapter 58: Men should not make promises lightly, but should keep their promises



Wu Lin, who was standing by, suddenly said, "So it's up to you, right?"

Shen Bing stopped talking immediately. He could still tell the difference between the big and small Wangs.

"Come, son, sit down and drink some water and rest for a while."

"I didn't pay much attention last time in Star City, but today I realized that my son, whom I haven't seen for half a year, has become so handsome."

Wu Lin pulled Chen Chuan to sit on a chair. She looked at her son with a tut-tut sound and said, "Son, what skin care products do you use? Recommend to me. Look at my skin. Alas, I am getting old and pale."

"Ahem." Shen Bing coughed dryly. "Well, I'm going to buy some fruit for my son. You two can chat first."

After saying that, he disappeared in a flash.

"Humph! You just know how to dodge."

Wu Lin looked dissatisfied.

"Haha, now that you've said that, if my dad doesn't find a chance to run away, he'll be scolded by you again."

Wu Lin was very dissatisfied: "You are also a heartless person."

"Mom, what's wrong with me?"

"I've raised you this old, how many times have you called me? When you were studying, besides having no living expenses, you didn't even bother to send me a message. After going out to work for a few years, how many times have I, your mother, seen you?"

Wu Lin started to criticize Chen Chuan without any hesitation. The latter looked unhappy and did not dare to argue.

"How long will you stay this time?"

"I'll probably stay in Jiangcheng in the future, so I can spend more time with you."

A hint of joy flashed in Wu Lin's eyes: "Seriously?"

"Of course. I don't rely on that job to make money now, so of course I can choose the place I like the most."

"Okay! You do this. When your dad comes back later, I'll go back and make your bed. Then I'll ask your dad to buy some good food so we can have dinner together in the evening."

"Well, you arrange it." Chen Chuan thought for a moment and said, "But there's no need for the old man to buy the vegetables. My sister-in-law has already done it."

"Oh! That's great. Your sister-in-law is a very nice person, but she doesn't talk much and likes to keep some things to herself."

"You two didn't give your sister-in-law a hard time, did you?" Chen Chuan decided to ask indirectly, "Sister-in-law has had a hard time. Her family is well-off, but she fell in love with my brother. Now she has given us a lovely little princess. You two elders must not give her a hard time."

Wu Lin curled her lips and said, "Living under the same roof, there are bound to be some bumps and bruises."

"That's what I meant, right?" Chen Chuan gave a wry smile. "Yes, living together for a long time is unavoidable, but it's not completely unsolvable. Let brother and sister-in-law move out and live on their own. If they don't live together, there will naturally be fewer conflicts, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will be more harmonious."

"Mom doesn't agree with you." Wu Lin looked at Chen Chuan seriously. "If they move out, the rent will be around 2,000 a month, right? And they'll have to pay for water, electricity, gas, and property fees, right? And daily expenses, right?"

"Although there will be some minor conflicts living together, it can save a lot of money. With our current financial situation, how can we afford to spend money recklessly?"

In the past, the topic would have basically ended here.

Because we have no ability to change the status quo, no matter how much we talk, it is all in vain.

But now, Chen Chuan felt that he could still say a few words.

"Isn't this simple? In a few months, I will buy you a house and you can live there with Yaxi. As for your brother and sister-in-law, let them live in the house they are renting now."

"You can have some peace and quiet, and they can have some relatively free space."

"Don't promise your mom anything. Your dad has done this countless times, promising to buy a luxury car in five years and a villa in ten. Men's words are always lies."

Wu Lin didn't believe a word he said and complained, "You promised to buy me a big diamond ring. Look at my hands. Will they still be suitable for wearing diamond rings after the skin and flesh atrophy in a few years?"

Chen Chuan looked embarrassed. In fact, this was a boast he made when he was in elementary school. At that time, he had no idea that buying a diamond ring would be so expensive.

[Ding! Triggering event.]

【A man should not make promises lightly, but should keep his word. 】

"Haha, the seventh incident is here!"

Chen Chuan was secretly happy, as he was only three steps away from upgrading again.

"Mom, you're not old, and I haven't forgotten." Chen Chuan patted his chest with a proud look on his face: "I will definitely not break my promise to you."

"I'm not pushing for a diamond ring or anything like that. I just want to ask, when are you going to find a girlfriend and get married? How many years have you been working in Shanghai? Don't you have a girlfriend?"

"You're bringing up something else entirely."

"Hey, I'm your mother. What's wrong with me urging you? I know what you young people are thinking nowadays. You want to delay marriage and childbirth, right?"

"Don't even think about it. I don't want me to be an old woman with gray hair when you get married."

Chen Chuan was overwhelmed and pretended to take out his cell phone from his pocket and put it to his ear.

"Oh, Mom, there's a phone call coming in. I'll go answer it first."

Wu Lin glared and said viciously, "What phone call? Are you trying to fool me? You're holding the phone upside down and thinking I'm blind and can't see it?"
