Chasing the Light

Chapter 228: Who cooks?

Views:

The next day, Han Dong got up early and drove into the city. Today he had to take Su Ran to a physical examination and also pick up Su Ran's grandparents to visit their home.

He and Su Ran had discussed it and decided that they would get the marriage certificate once their marriage application was approved, and then hold a small wedding after Su Ran finished filming "Eleven". They would not invite other people, but they would definitely invite relatives from both sides, his comrades-in-arms, and Su Ran's comrades-in-arms group.

Thinking that they would soon become a couple, Han Dong felt that every cell in his body became active and he had endless energy.

At half past seven, Han Dong arrived at the basement garage of Su Ran's house and called Su Ran. After a while, a man wrapped tightly like a big bear knocked on the passenger window. Han Dong almost didn't recognize him. He intuitively knew that it was Su Ran, so he quickly unlocked the door.

"You disguised yourself very well today." Han Dong glanced at her twice, with smiles in his eyes and eyebrows.

"Isn't it a bit ugly?" Su Ran asked. She was fully armed today wearing a hat, glasses, a mask, and a scarf knitted by her grandmother. She also wore a down jacket worth several hundred yuan and carried a no-brand canvas bag.

There's no way. After the variety show was broadcast last night, it received rave reviews. Overnight, she became a traffic star. It would be very troublesome if she didn't disguise herself well and was recognized, especially when going to places like hospitals. It seems that if a female artist goes to the hospital, it means she is pregnant.

"How could that be? In my eyes, you look beautiful no matter what." Han Dong said sincerely.

Compared to her radiant appearance on the screen, he truly felt that her blood-stained and miserable appearance on the battlefield was more touching.

Su Ran smiled, Instructor Han was very sweet.

However, she hasn't figured out how to settle the score with him about that matter.

Forget it, today is a good day, I should keep a good mood and let him go for now.

Su Ran's disguise was successful. The two of them walked into the hospital arm in arm. With so many people in the hospital, no one paid attention to this ordinary-dressed woman, let alone thought she was Su Ran. Instead, Han Dong's heroic appearance attracted a lot of attention.

Su Ran has become accustomed to this and actually enjoys the feeling of being envied, jealous and hated by others.

Since Zhou Shuping had called them early in the morning, and considering the special status of Su Ran and Han Dong, the marriage examination center gave Han Dong and Su Ran the green light, and they did not need to queue up and went in for the examination directly. So the examination went smoothly, and all the items were done in half an hour, and they just had to wait for the results to be sent out.

Because they had to draw blood, neither of them had breakfast yet. As soon as the physical examination was over, Han Dong took Su Ran to have breakfast first, and Han Dong's cell phone started ringing.

Han Dong answered the call using a Bluetooth headset.

"Hello! Who is this?"

"Are you Mr. Han?" A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I am, who are you?"

"It was Zheng Huan who called me and asked me to find you."

Han Dong's expression froze and he looked at Su Ran beside him. Su Ran was looking out the car window.

Zheng Huan is a staff member of the Xinghai Embassy. Han Dong asked Zheng Huan to help find Su Ran's mother. This woman said that it was Zheng Huan who called her, so she must be...

"My flight is at 11:00 noon. Can we have a face-to-face meeting?"

"Okay, call me when you get there."

Although Su Ran was looking out the window, she was keeping her ears open. She was afraid that Han Dong might have something urgent to do. His job was like that of a policeman. He was on call 24 hours a day and could be on duty at any time.

After Han Dong hung up the phone, Su Ran asked, "What's the matter?"

Han Dong nodded. How should he tell Su Ran

"RanRan, guess who called me just now?"

Su Ran smiled angrily: "How can I guess?"

"It should be your mother."

Su Ran's smile froze on her lips. The news came too suddenly and she was a little overwhelmed to react.

Mom? Such a strange name.

"I asked Zheng Huan from the Xinghai Embassy to help find your mother. A woman called just now. She sounded like she was in her 40s or 50s. She mentioned Zheng Huan." Han Dong glanced at Su Ran worriedly and added, "She will take a flight to Shengzhou at 11 noon."

Su Ran was silent. She was finally coming back.

I came back just in time. My daughter, whom I left when she was three years old, is now getting married.

Han Dong said: "I will go meet her first to see what she means, and then you can decide whether to meet her or not."

Han Dong meant to give her some psychological cushion. It was indeed a bit difficult to meet her just like that. If he were in her shoes, he wouldn't know what mood or attitude he should use to face such a mother.

"Yeah!" Su Ran did not reject Han Dong's kindness. She adjusted her seat belt and silently leaned her head on his shoulder. Her fluctuating and chaotic emotions gradually calmed down.

At noon, the parents of Su and Han met. Zhou Shuping felt a little awkward at first, but when she saw Su Qingsong and his wife were calm and natural, as if no unpleasantness had happened at all, she gradually relaxed and the atmosphere became quite harmonious.

But as we were eating, problems arose again.

Lu Yu praised Zhou Shuping's cooking skills. Zhou Shuping smiled and felt very proud. Everyone who had eaten her cooking praised it.

Then Lu Yu laughed at herself: "I can't cook. Before her grandfather was sick, he cooked for her. Now I have no choice but to cook. Everyone complains that the food is not tasty. Ranran is like me. She has no talent in this area."

Han Dong smiled and said, "Grandma, don't worry, I will cook for Ranran. My cooking skills are pretty good. I inherited them from my mom."

The more Zhou Shuping listened, the more uncomfortable she felt. Was Su Ran's grandmother trying to show off her status in the family? If a woman couldn't even cook, how could she still be called a woman? She also said that Su Ran couldn't cook either. The most hateful thing was her own son, who even said that he was a good cook and would cook for Su Ran in the future. As a mother, she had never eaten a meal cooked by her son, so why should she cook for her daughter-in-law? She hadn't even entered the family yet, and she had to establish her status in the family first

Han Ting saw her mother's face getting uglier and uglier, and she immediately understood, and she smiled and tried to smooth things over: "My family also cooks mostly for Zecheng, and he also thinks that my cooking is unpalatable."

Dong Zecheng was stunned for a moment. When had he ever cooked before? Wasn't it the nanny who cooked at home? In the past, when he couldn't afford a nanny, his mother cooked for him. Seeing his wife winking at him, Dong Zecheng quickly agreed, "I don't think Tingting's cooking is not delicious, I'm just afraid that she is too tired."

Take the opportunity to show off.

Zhou Shuping said indifferently: "Tingting is busy with work, so it's only right that you do more. Han Dong is also busy with work. Su Ran, you still have to learn to cook."

Han Dong said: "Mom, Ran Ran is busier than me, I'll do it, it's okay, I'm quick."

Lu Yu and Su Qingsong were very satisfied with Han Dong's attitude. Before, they were worried that Ran Ran would not be able to do housework well and take care of the small family. Now that the problem has been solved, they said that it is better to find a soldier because soldiers are hardworking.

Zhou Shuping was so angry at her own son that she was about to die. People marry wives just to have someone who understands their feelings and takes care of them. But he wants to marry a grandmother to serve her
