When Chen Lan returned to her family home, she saw a man sitting on the sofa, engaged in conversation with Chen Jun.

The man was dressed in a well-tailored suit, wore gold-rimmed glasses, and exuded an air of erudition.

This man was none other than Chen Lan’s uncle, Wang Yun.

Despite his genteel appearance, Wang Yun was a formidable figure who had dealings in both legal and illegal domains.

“Uncle!” Chen Lin happily ran over and sat beside him.

Wang Yun, upon seeing Chen Lan, was also delighted. He affectionately patted her head and said, “You’ve grown so much, yet you’re still as impulsive as ever.”

Chen Lan chuckled and replied, “Well, seeing my dear uncle makes me happy!”

For some reason, Chen Lan felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to these relatives she had never met before. It was as if she shared 20 years of memories with them.

Just then, Tang Ye walked over, and Chen Lan held his hand as she introduced him, “Uncle, this is my husband, Tang Ye.”

“Hello, Uncle,” Tang Ye greeted politely.

Wang Yun gave Tang Ye a thorough once-over.

He had seen Tang Ye when he was younger, and back then, the boy had been thin and small. He was pleasantly surprised to see how robust he had become. Wang Yun nodded in appreciation and then took a small box from his pocket, handing it to Chen Lan.

“I couldn’t attend your wedding because I was away at the time. This is a belated gift for you.”

Chen Lan accepted the box and opened it to find a pair of rings inside.

Unlike the typical gold or silver rings, these rings had a captivating shimmer. She expressed her thanks and then took Tang Ye’s hand, sliding the larger ring onto his ring finger.

Seeing how perfectly it fit on Tang Ye’s finger, Chen Lan sighed in her heart. Her uncle seemed to understand the original character’s taste very well. They had bought wedding rings when they got married, but those had been pawned by Chen Lan to raise money for the motorcycle.

Chen Lan slid her ring onto her finger and then sweetly smiled at Wang Yun. “Uncle, you have great taste. These rings are so beautiful!”

Wang Yun gazed at her with affection and replied, “I’m glad you like them.”

Then, Wang Yun took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Tang Ye. “Your grandmother specifically asked me to give this to you. She’s getting old, and it’s not convenient for her to travel. When you and Lanlan have some free time, go visit her.”

Tang Ye glanced at Chen Lan, who nodded in agreement. He reached out to accept the red envelope and said, “I understand. When I have time off, I’ll take Lanlan to visit her.” He then casually handed the red envelope to Chen Lan.

On the side, Wang Lian watched his natural gesture with a heartwarming smile. She spoke up, “You should keep the red envelope from your grandmother for yourself. Why did you give it to her?”

Tang Ye chuckled and scratched his head. “I don’t need it in the army.”

Chen Lan tucked away the red envelope and thanked Wang Yun. “Uncle, we appreciate your help yesterday. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have known how to deal with those vampires.”

On the other side, Chen Jun chimed in, “Your uncle contacted you again? He doesn’t learn his lesson.”

Tang Ye nodded and also expressed his gratitude to Wang Yun.

“Uncle, I need a little favor from you,” Chen Lan said with a cheerful smile as she looked at Wang Yun.

“Tell me, as long as you ask, I’ll do my best to get you the moon from the sky.”

“There’s a motorcycle parked outside. Since you know many people, could you help me find a place to sell it? I’ll end up losing money if I try to sell it myself.”

Wang Yun nodded, “No problem. I’ll have someone come over later to ride it away, and once it’s sold, I’ll deliver the money to your mother.”

Given Wang Yun’s stature in the business world, if it became known that he was selling the motorcycle, people would probably be willing to pay the original price just to curry favor with him.

“Also, Uncle, my friend Wen Jing and I are planning to start a small business selling clothes. When we have enough capital in the future, can you help us find a suitable shop?”

Chen Lan envisioned herself working hard to earn money in the future. The clothes she and Wen Jing made were unique and of high quality, so she was confident they would sell well.

Currently, setting up a stall in front of a department store was sufficient, but eventually, they would need a proper shop.

Wang Yun hadn’t expected Chen Lan to go into business, but he thought it was a child’s play, so he agreed to play along. “Sure, I’ll have someone keep an eye out for you.”

“Uncle is mighty. You’re the best!”

Meanwhile, Tang Ye stayed in the living room with Chen Jun to play chess, while Wang Lian went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Chen Lan initially sat on the sofa and tried to watch Tang Ye play chess, but she couldn’t understand the game and soon found herself yawning repeatedly.
