Chapter 228 Lunar New Year 1
Of course, Li Ze was also very clear about one thing.
He can't just say nice things; he has to face reality.
To put it bluntly, everything he has now is inextricably linked to money.
If he has no money now, if he is just a penniless father who comes back empty-handed.
After disappearing for eighteen years, will his son and daughter really accept him so quickly?
If he hadn't given Meng Han that billion yuan as pocket money, would Meng Han still have been willing to call him "Dad"?
If he hadn't given Mengli two hundred million, would Mengli still be so happy, clinging to his arm and calling him "Dad" every day?
If he didn't have the money to acquire Prince Xuan or buy the entire Beichen Garden community, would Ruoran still be willing to sit down and eat and chat with him?
Li Zexin knew the answers to these questions.
Without money, he couldn't get any of these things.
This is a very real issue.
However, Li Ze did not feel uneasy or uncomfortable because of this.
He just felt that since fate had given him so much money...
He should make good use of this money to protect everything he has now.
Whether it's money, family ties, or the relationship between him and Ruoran that is about to be repaired.
He would do everything in his power to protect these things.
We must never allow anyone or anything to destroy them.
Li Ze slowly stood up from the sofa.
He stretched and moved his slightly sore neck.
The television was still playing, but he had completely lost interest in watching it.
He picked up the remote control from the coffee table and pressed the power button.
The TV screen went black, and the living room instantly became much quieter.
After hearing the TV turn off, Mengli and Menghan both looked up at their father.
Li Ze looked at the two of them and smiled.
He said:
"It's getting late, you should all go to sleep early. You all have to go back to school to register tomorrow and the day after, so get some rest."
Mengli nodded obediently:
"Okay, Dad. You should go to bed early too."
Meng Han also stood up and said to Li Ze:
"Okay, goodnight."
The two children went back to their respective rooms.
Li Ze was the only one left in the living room.
He stood there, looking at the empty living room and the few closed doors in the hallway.
He took a deep breath.
Then he whispered something to himself.
The sound was so faint that only he himself could hear it.
"Tomorrow, I'll depart for America."
……
Time flies.
Before we knew it, it was the next day.
The eleventh day of the first lunar month, which is February 27th.
It was exactly 7:00 AM.
Li Ze had already gotten out of bed.
He stood in front of the sink, turned on the tap, and washed his face with cold water.
The refreshing feeling of the cold water hitting his face made him feel much more energetic.
Actually, he didn't need to get up so early today.
The florist is already taking care of things, so he doesn't need to go there.
If so, you don't need to go to work.
They didn't even need to catch a flight.
Because Lao Yi had already arranged everything last night.
Private jets can take off at any time, and you can leave whenever you want.
But that's just how Li Ze is.
For the past eighteen years while doing business in America, he has always gotten up before seven o'clock every morning.
Day after day, year after year, his body had developed this habit.
Even if nothing happens today, he will automatically wake up at this time.
After washing up, Li Ze got dressed and left the bedroom.
The house was very quiet.
Ruoran was still asleep in the next bedroom, the door tightly closed.
There was no sound at all in Mengli and Menghan's rooms.
Li Ze stood alone in the living room, quickly packing the things he needed to take to America.
Actually, there's not much to tidy up.
Lao Yi had already prepared most of the things for him last night.
And to be honest, many everyday items don't need to be brought from home at all.
Because he has everything in America.
Whether it's clothes, toiletries, or anything else you need in your daily life.
As long as he tells Lao Yi, Lao Yi can buy it for him locally anytime, and it will all be the best.
Therefore, he had no need to carry large bags of things out of his home.
However, Li Ze still specially packed a suitcase.
I just packed a few changes of clothes and some other simple things inside.
He did this entirely out of consideration for Ruoran.
After all, Ruoran is a very traditional woman.
She has never been abroad in her life, nor has she ever flown on a private plane.
After all, Ruoran is a very traditional woman.
She has never been abroad in her life, nor has she ever flown on a private plane.
If she goes out without even a suitcase, she will definitely feel uneasy and very anxious.
So Li Ze prepared a suitcase in advance and placed it there, so that Ruoran could feel more at ease after seeing it.
And so, time slowly passed until eight o'clock in the morning.
The sound of a door opening came from the other end of the corridor.
Ruoran opened the bedroom door.
Ruoran walked out of the room wearing very comfortable loungewear, her hair still a little messy.
Her eyes were still half-closed, as if she had just woken up.
After all, she used to get up at this time every day when she was working.
Over the past ten years, my body has completely memorized this time.
Even if she doesn't have to go to work today, she will automatically wake up at eight o'clock.
When Ruoran walked into the living room, she saw that Li Ze was already dressed and standing there.
She rubbed her eyes and, with a hint of morning grumpiness, asked:
"Li Ze, is everything ready?"
Li Ze turned around and looked at Ruoran, who was still sleepy.
He smiled and nodded, then took a step to the side.
He pointed to the black suitcase that was placed on the living room floor.
"Of course it's ready. I got up early this morning and got everything ready."
Ruoran glanced down at the suitcase.
Her brows furrowed immediately.
She looked at Li Ze and said in a very incredulous tone:
"No, we're going to America. That's going abroad. You're only bringing one suitcase, how is that enough?"
Ruoran's voice became a little louder:
"It's not like you're just going to stay at a friend's house for a day and then coming back. You're going to stay for at least several days, right? What about your clothes? Your toiletries? Your skincare products? What can you possibly pack in just one suitcase?"
Li Ze smiled when he saw Ruoran's nervous expression.
He answered very easily:
"It's alright, Ruoran. I have all that random stuff you mentioned, both on the plane and in America. Once you arrive, if you need anything, just tell me or Lao Yi. I'll get it ready for you right away."
Upon hearing Li Ze say this, her face clearly showed disbelief.
She crossed her arms in front of her chest and tilted her head to look at Li Ze:
"I don't believe it. What do you mean by 'ready immediately'?"
After thinking about it for a moment, she decided to test it on the spot.
"What if I want a mask right now? Can you prepare one immediately?"
