CHAPTER 1040 TREATED LIKE A SON

Right now.

In Donghai!

Jiang Ning was back!

Lin Yuzhen picked him up from the airport personally.

Only Jiang Ning got to enjoy this privilege.

When she saw Jiang Ning carrying a bag in each hand, Lin Yuzhen couldn't help laughing.

"You don't look like a rich man at all."

"I can't look rich," said Jiang Ning solemnly, "Otherwise, they might say that you fell for my wealth and not my talent.”

Lin Yuzhen laughed out loud and rolled her eyes at Jiang Ning.

"You're shameless!"

The car sped quickly back to the Lins' bungalow.

It felt good to be home.

Before he even stepped into the house, he could already smell the fragrance of food.

Jiang Ning that Su Mei must have prepared all his favorite dishes early and was just waiting for him to come home.

He thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere at home.

"Jiang Ning!"

Su Mei undid her apron and came to the door quickly. When she caught sight of Jiang Ning, she beamed brightly as if her son had come home and not her son-in-law.

"I miss you so much!"

Jiang Ning reached his arms out and hugged Su Mei, "Mum, I miss your cooking too!"

"That's nonsense!"

Su Mei turned to look and asked, "What's

this in your hand?"

"It's fruit!"

Jiang Ning tilted his head up like a child waiting to be praised. "These are fruits unique to the northwest. Since we can't find them easily in Donghai, I went to the orchard to pick some for you and Dad to try them."

Su Mei's eyes turned red.

It was two big bags. It must have been tiring to carry them!

The northwest was so far, but Jiang Ning brought them back nonetheless.

It didn't dawn on her that Jiang Ning took a flight back. Or that Lin Yuzhen picked him up at the airport. The only thing on her mind was how Jiang Ning carried two heavy bags of fruit back by hand and was sweating profusely from it.

"You're so thoughtful!"

Su Mei hurriedly took one bag from him.

Then she turned to glance at Lin Wen as he stood there motionlessly. Her smile faded as she said, "What are you waiting for? Help Jiang Ning carry one! Our son is so tired! You're going to get it from me if my son collapses from fatigue!"

Lin Wen smiled awkwardly and quickly took the other bag off Jiang Ning's hand. Content © 2024.

She was already calling Jiang Ning her son, so Lin Wen had clearly moved another position down.

Jiang Ning came back like a glorious soldier returning from a victorious battle. When he stepped into the house, everything was spotless and the table was filled with his favorite fruit and snacks.

Even his long unworn slippers were waiting neatly in place.

Lin Yuzhen was envious of this treatment, but she knew that Jiang Ning deserved it.

This was Jiang Ning's home.

After Jiang Ning had a hearty meal, Lin

Yuzhen dragged him upstairs for a shower to wash away his sweat.

Su Mei was in high spirits downstairs and used her phone to take pictures of the fruit that Jiang Ning brought back. After picking a few angles and taking over 20 pictures, she finally selected a few she was happy with to put up on social media.

"I have to get Su Yun to teach me how to edit pictures!" said Su Mei as she beamed. She typed, "My son-in-law brought some fruit unique to the northwest back for me. It's so sweet!"

In no time, many of her friends liked her picture and said how envious they were of her. It made Su Mei even happier.

There were many things in life where she lost to her classmates and friends. But she won when it came to her son-in-law!

In fact, she had won beautifully!

"Look at how smug you are!" sneered Lin Wen. He couldn't help laughing. But when Su Mei glared at him, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Fine. It's not like I'm envious. I'm going out for tea with my friends!"
