Chapter 174 - Win the Mother's Heart

When Xu Yilan heard that her good friend was unwell, she immediately volunteered to come along with her daughter to head over to Capital City. The Han family was a good neighbor. When Xu Yilan first moved to B City, the Han couple would often look after her. Of course, she would not be at ease if she did not visit them.

Zhang Yu Han showed up at their apartment building and sent them both to the airport. 

Knowing that Zhang Yu Han drove back and forth from Y City made Xu Yilan uneasy. However, Zhang Yu Han ensured that he was not troubled at all. 

After interacting with Zhang Yu Han a few more time, Xu Yilan was even more satisfied with her daughter's boyfriend. Anyway, as long as that person treated her daughter well, she would be contented. Xu Yilan could see that Zhang Yu Han treated her daughter good. It was apparent from the way her daughter would look or talk about her boyfriend.

Seeing the two's relationship, Xu Yilan heaved a sigh in relief.

Once they arrived at the airport, Zhang Yu Han found a parking space and helped them with their luggage. Once he had helped the mother and daughter to check in, Zhang Yu Han stayed around with them until it was time for their flight.

As the three of them hang around in a cafe, Li Qin Yao left briefly to the restroom. When she came back, Li Qin Yao could see that both her mother and her boyfriend were chatting happily.

Once Xu Yilan saw that her daughter had returned, she took her turn to go to the restroom.

Li Qin Yao sat beside her boyfriend and nudged his arms. "What did you and my mother talked about?"

"Nothing much. Just a little bit of this and that."

Narrowing her eyes, Li Qin Yao continued to ask, "You seemed very close to my mother."

Zhang Yu Han saw the questioning look in her eyes and smiled. He bopped her nose and said, "I heard that to win someone's daughter, one must try to win the mother's heart first." Seeing that they were alone, Zhang Yu instinctively leaned forward to kiss her but stopped when she put a hand on his ċhėst to stop him.

"My mom is here!" Li Qin Yao said urgently.

Zhang Yu Han took a deep breath to calm down. Of course... in front of his future mother-in-law, Zhang Yu Han was planning to protect his image.

Though he wanted to punish this girl with a kiss, Zhang Yu Han knew that he shouldn't be doing that in public. Anyway, he was afraid that her mother would really show up behind him.

Zhang Yu Han could tell that Xu Yilan had taken to like him and had approved of his relationship with Li Qin Yao. To Li Qin Yao, her mother was the most important person in her life. Therefore, he did not want to mess things up. That was why he tried hard to win his future mother-in-law's approval. 

Li Qin Yao laughed. Once she calmed down, she tilted her head sideways and said, "That's right, I heard that you gave my mother a membership card to that expensive health club. How come I didn't get any membership card?"

This time, it was Zhang Yu Han's turn to laugh. "You won't need a card. The last time you come to the club with my sister, the management already taken your details and remember your face. The next time you come to that health club, you can just walk in without any reservation." 

Of course, Zhang Yu Han did not tell her that every time she visited the health club, she did not have to pay anything. Her bills would be directed to his account.

Li Qin Yao stared at him in dumbfounded. She was only trying to tease him. She did not expect that Zhang Yu Han would let the management to remember her face or details.

Zhang Yu Han merely smiled at the way his girlfriend was staring at him. "I have already instructed Xiao Ye to pick you and your mother at the airport. He will look after you during your stay in Capital City."

"You don't need to trouble your ȧssistant. I'm sure that he has a lot of other things to do."

"Nonsense. Xiao Ye is usually free," Zhang Yu Han said.

If Xiao Ye heard his boss's words, he will definitely cry in aggrieved. Because he was sent over to deal with things in Capital City for Zhang Yu Han, he had a lot of tasks piling on his table. He was not less busy than his boss. 

"Besides," Zhang Yu Han continued. "You and your mother are staying at our hotel. Of course, I have to make sure that everything will be perfect. You are a guest."

When Zhang Yu Han heard that Li Qin Yao would not be staying at her grandparents' house, he immediately offered the mother and daughter to stay at their hotel. Li Qin Yao could only accept his arrangement or else, this man would be overly worried.

As Xu Yilan returned to their side, there was an announcement calling for Li Qin Yao and her mother's flight. Zhang Yu Han helped them with their belongings, but as they almost reached the gate, Xu Yilan suddenly sped up and walked into the gate without waiting for her daughter.

Seeing the way her mother acted, Li Qin Yao could only laugh. She turned to Zhang Yu Han and said, "My mother likes you."

"Isn't that a good thing?" Zhang Yu Han let out a soft chuckle. "Qin Yao, I'm going to miss you," He spoke in his low voice. As he put his arms around her waist, Zhang Yu Han could feel that she was slightly trembling.

Fearing that she might be cold, Zhang Yu Han adjusted her jacket before he pulled her closer to kiss her. "Have a safe flight. Call me when you arrived at the hotel."

Li Qin Yao nodded. She tilted her head up to look at him and knew that she was going to miss him too. They have spent most of their time together. It would be strange that she was not going to see him for almost two weeks.

The two of them exchanged a few more words and kisses before Zhang Yu Han released her to let her walk into the departure gate.

This time, the atmosphere felt different than the first time Zhang Yu Han sent to the airport. As Li Qin Yao thought of the last time, her lips curved into a smile.
