"My dear father-in-law, this is a white lie."
Xiao Chen looked at Su Shiming, speechless.
"If you don't let them know you're here, how can I get them to come back? I can't just say, 'I have a stomachache, can you please come back to see me?' Besides, if I say I have a stomachache, that would be a lie."
"Yeah, that's true, but you just keep talking nonsense."
Su Shiming smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Don't be nervous, we are all men, I understand."
“…”
Xiao Chen really wanted to make some 'manly jokes', but after thinking about it, he held back.
No matter what, Su Shiming is his father-in-law, and this is a fact that cannot be changed...so, stop joking.
"They will be back soon?"
Su Shiming asked.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and looked at his watch.
"Xiaoqing should be back earlier, maybe in about twenty minutes."
"Twenty minutes..."
Su Shiming nodded and took another sip of tea.
"Father-in-law, are you nervous?"
Xiao Chen asked when he saw Su Shiming drinking water frequently.
"Well, no, I'm meeting my own daughter, why should I be nervous?"
Su Shiming coughed dryly to cover up.
But he was really a little nervous in his heart.
Although he kept in the dark and saw his daughters a few times, they did not know about it and they did not meet at all.
Now that they are going to meet, after all these years, how can he not be nervous.
"Haha, father-in-law, do you know how badly Xiao Meng beat Ding Mao yesterday?"
Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"Hmm? How bad?"
Su Shiming's eyelids twitched.
"You left the two sisters alone for so many years, how could they not have some resentment in their hearts? Especially Xiao Meng, she has a bad temper... After finding out that Ding Mao was a fake, she beat Ding Mao so hard that even his mother didn't recognize him."
Xiao Chen said deliberately.
"After being beaten, Ding Mao looks nothing like you anymore. He just looks like a pig."
“…”
Su Shiming's expression changed slightly.
"But don't worry, Xiao Meng has already vented most of her anger to Ding Mao, so she won't hit you."
Xiao Chen said again.
"Is it too late for me to leave now?"
Su Shiming put down the teacup and asked.
"It's too late. You finally showed up. How could I let you go?"
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Today, you have to see it whether you want to or not..."
“…”
Su Shiming was helpless, but he was just talking. Since he came today, he must want to see his two daughters.
"Father-in-law, what happened today? Why did you suddenly appear?"
Xiao Chen looked at Su Shiming, and the resentment in his heart began to bubble out.
"Shouldn't you continue to hide and not show your face? Why are you willing to come out?"
"When it's time to come out, it will come out naturally."
Su Shiming smiled.
"I heard about what you did abroad, and I also received the message you asked Xiao Xue to bring to me."
"Did you call Aunt Xue?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"I called her yesterday."
"I went to the orphanage last night and told her that I would come to the Xiao Manor today and there was no need to tell you in advance...so, she didn't notify you."
Su Shiming explained.
"oh."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Father-in-law, so you show up at this time, you don't plan to hide anymore, right?"
"With such an excellent son-in-law like you, what else should I hide?"
Su Shiming looked at Xiao Chen with admiration on his face.
"In such a short period of time, you have become stronger. Not bad, very good... You have killed giants in a row. With this strength, you are already at the top of the world, right? You are so strong now. If I continue to hide, wouldn't that be embarrassing for you?"
"hehe……"
Xiao Chen just laughed, but suddenly felt something was wrong. What did his father-in-law mean by this?
"Are you free these two days?"
Su Shiming asked.
"what?"
Xiao Chen was a little wary.
"I'm giving you a chance to show off, you must seize it firmly..."
Su Shiming said with a smile.
"Don't say your father-in-law won't help you."
"What performance opportunity?"
Xiao Chen was even more alert, because he knew how powerful his father-in-law was. He usually hid himself in secret, but today he was walking around in broad daylight.
As the saying goes, when something is out of the ordinary, there must be something wrong. He needs to be careful.
Otherwise, it would be easy to be fooled by this big liar.
"Don't make that expression. Your expression really hurts my father-in-law."
Su Shiming curled his lips.
"I'll take you to save your mother-in-law. Think about it, if you save her, will she still object to your relationship with Xiaoqing and Xiaomeng? Right?"
"Um?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"Save... my mother-in-law? She was arrested?"
"That's not the case, but the Holy See of Light should have some clues... So, her hiding place is not that safe anymore. We have to bring her back to China as soon as possible."
Su Shiming shook his head.
"Originally I didn't plan to come to you. I wanted to handle it myself, but now I heard that you are so capable, so I changed my plan... I'll give you a chance to show off."
Hearing that Su's mother was fine, Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but then he curled his lips. What kind of opportunity was this? To put it bluntly, wasn't it just for him to be a thug?
"What, you don't want to? You don't want this opportunity? That's fine, I have Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C anyway..."
Su Shiming said after seeing Xiao Chen's reaction.
"Plan A, Plan B, Plan C?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"Why do you have so many plans?"
"Three, not many."
Su Shiming shook his head.
"Without a few plans, how dare you come out and mess around?"
"No, then what plan do you have for me?"
Xiao Chen couldn't help but ask.
"You? Plan D. Isn't D the next to C?"
Su Shiming looked at Xiao Chen as if he were a fool.
“…”
Xiao Chen wanted to slap himself. After C, there is D.
"Do you want this opportunity to show off?"
Su Shiming asked again.
"Yes, of course. Look at what you said. My mother-in-law is in danger. I won't blink an eye even if it means danger."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"It doesn't matter whether it's an opportunity or not. What's important is... this is my biological mother-in-law. Nothing can happen to her."
“Haha, not bad.”
Su Shiming smiled with satisfaction and nodded.
"Where are we going to pick up my mother-in-law?"
Xiao Chen asked.
Before Su Shiming could answer, Xiao Chen's cell phone rang.
He picked it up and saw that it was a call from Obisco.
Xiao Chen was surprised. Could it be that the news of Su Shiming's appearance was known to the Holy See of Light so quickly?
What's going on over there?
So Obisco called to remind him?
"Father-in-law, let me take a call first."
Xiao Chen said to Su Shiming.
"Well, take it."
Su Shiming nodded, picked up the teacup and drank tea.
At the same time, I was also thinking about what it would be like to see my two daughters later, and I felt quite excited and... nervous.
"Hey...what's wrong?"
Xiao Chen answered the phone.
"Xiao Chen, I just got the news that Su Qing's mother should be hiding in Siam... Alf will go to Siam in the next two days."
Obisco's voice came from the receiver.
"oh?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and glanced at Su Shiming opposite him.
"Operation Longhai failed this time, and Rouse died. Alf was very angry, but he also valued me more, so he told me the news."
Obisco said again.
"Do you have a specific address?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"I'm not sure, but Alf is going, so he should know something... I'll ask around here, and I'll let you know if there's any news."
Obisco said solemnly.
"Okay, what's the other news?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
"There is no news about Su Shiming for now, but if there is any gain from this trip to Siam, he won't be able to hide for too long."
Obisco said again.
After hearing what Obisco said, Xiao Chen looked at Su Shiming opposite him again.
This time, Su Shiming noticed Xiao Chen's gaze and became curious. Whose call was this?
"Okay, I got it. If you have any news, please let me know."
Xiao Chen finished speaking and hung up the phone.
"Who's calling?"
Su Shiming asked.
"My mother-in-law is in Siam?"
Xiao Chen did not answer Su Shiming's call, but asked a question.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Su Shiming showed surprise: "How did you know?"
"It's a call from Obisco. He's working with Alf now... Alf has got the clue and is going to Siam."
Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.
"Is my mother-in-law's hiding place safe enough?"
"Oh? Looks like they did find out."
Su Shiming was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"It's safe for a short period of time, don't worry."
"That's good."
Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Su Shiming say this.
“When are we going to Siam?”
"Early tomorrow morning."
Su Shiming said.
"My people have already gone there in advance."
"Early tomorrow morning?"
Xiao Chen frowned slightly.
"Why, are you okay?"
Su Shiming asked.
"No, I think we can go this afternoon...why wait until tomorrow?"
Xiao Chen shook his head and said.
"hehe."
Hearing this, Su Shiming smiled and felt a little warm in his heart.
He knew that Xiao Chen said this because he was worried about the safety of Xiaoqing's mother.
"Don't worry, everything is under my control."
Su Shiming said to Xiao Chen.
"If I hadn't decided to come and see you, Xiaoqing and Xiaomeng at the last minute, I might have been in Siam today... I originally wanted to pick her up and then meet Xiaoqing and the others, but I thought about it and decided that meeting them earlier would also be beneficial."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded. He did not doubt Su Shiming's words. Although this father-in-law was a worry, he was definitely a powerful figure.
"Women are all emotional. I can imagine the scene when we meet after not seeing each other for many years... I might as well meet them first."
Su Shiming said with a smile.
"Haha, aren't you just as nervous?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Who said that? I'm just... a little excited, that's all."
How could Su Shiming admit it? He just shook his head.
"All right."
Xiao Chen nodded, leaned back on the sofa, and relaxed completely.
These days, he has been thinking about how to find Su Shiming.
Now...Su Shiming came out on his own and will be able to pick up his mother-in-law soon.
A huge stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
