Seeing this, Xiao Ran subconsciously glanced at her phone. He understood that Yan's mother was calling her now simply to ask about his situation.
"Take it," he said calmly.
How could I not answer my own mother's call?
Yan Xici also wanted to answer, but she was afraid that she wouldn't know how to answer if asked about Xiao Ran.
The more she thought about it, the more serious her expression became.
Xiao Ran looked at her with a serious expression.
"Um, if you want to ask me anything, just give me your phone number."
His eyes were firm as he spoke.
This is his own business; we can't always make things difficult for the girl.
This time, he felt he should have a serious talk with Yan's mother and try to resolve the issue once and for all, so that the girl would never have to suffer because of his own problems again.
She deserves a new life, and so does he.
Upon hearing this, the girl answered the phone, her expression slightly tense, "Mom."
"Let me ask you something. There's a picture of your brother-in-law on that acne scar, and there are a lot of big celebrities in it too. Do you know what happened?"
Upon hearing that this was the question, the girl instantly felt relieved.
"Oh, Brother Xiao Ran has a book that's going to be adapted into a TV series, right? The people you see are from that production crew. It's a group photo of them with Brother Xiao Ran. The celebrities in there are all people who are going to star in the book."
Speaking of this, the girl's face was full of pride.
Upon hearing this, Yan's mother looked on in surprise. Good heavens, her son-in-law has really made something of himself!
Don't be fooled by how much money the daughter earns; she's never actually been seen taking photos with so many big stars. But her son-in-law is a different story.
Someone else's book has actually been adapted into a TV series! These celebrities are here to audition for roles in their son-in-law's book.
Moreover, these are all celebrities that I often see on TV, which is really amazing.
The more Yan's mother thought about it, the happier she became. Although the two were now divorced, Xiao Ran was truly a good child.
Seeing that he is doing well makes me genuinely happy for him!
"Oh, that's wonderful! I was so confused by what I was seeing, I had no idea what was going on." Mrs. Yan said excitedly.
"That's not all! Brother Xiao Ran knew I liked Yang Mi, and he even helped me get a video of him with her. You have no idea, that was truly the best gift I've ever received in my life!"
After all, she was her own mother, and the girl excitedly chatted with her.
She had no idea how good Xiao Ran was to her.
She truly feels incredibly happy right now.
"Really? Then your brother-in-law is really good to you. Xiao Ran is such a good kid." Mother Yan said with a look of satisfaction.
"But there's something else I wanted to ask you. Has your brother-in-law talked to you recently? Is there really no chance for these two?"
To be honest, Mrs. Yan really couldn't bear to part with this son-in-law.
The thought that he would no longer come to her house during holidays made Yan's mother feel particularly uneasy.
"Well, how about we let Brother Xiao Ran tell you about this himself?" the girl said, glancing at Xiao Ran.
Seeing Xiao Ran nod, she handed him the phone.
"Hello, Mom, it's me, Xiao Ran," Xiao Ran said warmly.
"Oh, Xiao Ran, hearing you call me 'Mom' makes me so happy." After so many days, Yan's mother had actually undergone quite a few changes in her heart and gradually accepted the fact that the two of them were indeed divorced.
They've said everything they needed to say. As the old saying goes, everyone has their own destiny when it comes to marriage, and perhaps their marriage has come to this point.
It was ordained by fate, and there was nothing she could do about it.
But since they were once family, Yan's mother still felt warm inside that Xiao Ran could still call her "Mom" at home.
"Mom, look at what you're saying. Even though Yan Li and I are divorced, we were once family. I remember all the good things you did for me. As long as you don't mind, you'll always be my mom!"
After all, if I were to marry her second daughter, I would still have to call her "Mom"!
Hearing this, Yan's mother felt a warmth in her heart.
"As the old saying goes, a son-in-law is like half a son. Although you're not my son-in-law anymore, I've really treated you like my own son all these years. Come back and visit me more often, and I'll cook you something delicious!"
As Yan's mother spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
The thought that Xiao Ran was no longer her son-in-law made her feel inexplicably sad.
He choked up a little at the end.
She is a very kind-hearted and loyal person. Although he and Yan Li have broken up, they still have family ties.
These words actually made Xiao Ran feel quite uncomfortable.
To be honest, Yan's mother has been very good to me over the years. She really treats me like her own son, so I am happy to do things for them.
He pursed his lips. "Mom, don't be sad. I'll come back to see you when I'm free. How about that? I'll even bring you your favorite salted duck!"
Hearing this, Yan's mother felt even more distressed.
Some things are just beyond our control.
She nodded. "Okay, Mom will be waiting for you."
The two talked for a long time before hanging up the phone. Qiu Yuru looked at her son with satisfaction, "That's what a real man should do."
