Chapter 217 Going to America is certainly an option.
3 PM.
Han City World.
Inside Zeran Flower Shop.
Li Ze was sitting alone in that comfortable chair at that moment.
He held a cup of hot tea in his right hand and a phone in his left, his eyes fixed on the screen.
He's scrolling through short videos.
Speaking of which, the biggest change that has happened to him since he returned to China is that he has become completely obsessed with short videos from China.
He spent eighteen years abroad, where short videos also exist.
However, he always felt that those short videos from abroad were completely uninteresting and did not attract him at all.
After returning to China, he casually opened the short video app on his phone and started watching.
Goodness, once they started, they just couldn't stop.
Funny jokes, cooking tutorials, and all sorts of domestic tourist attractions.
He found every video very interesting and couldn't bear to swipe away.
I don't know why, maybe it's just that different places nurture different people.
He is, after all, a Chinese, and the blood of the Chinese flows in his veins.
I just can't get used to foreign things, but I think everything about domestic things is great.
This is perfectly normal.
Just as Li Ze was getting into it...
His phone suddenly vibrated, and an incoming call notification popped up on the screen.
Li Ze glanced down at the number.
When he saw who had called, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.
Isn't this the phone number of my brother-in-law, Zhang Jianguo?
Li Ze suddenly remembered.
A few days ago, on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
The brother-in-law took his eldest daughter, Zhang Zixuan, by plane to the United States for medical treatment.
He went to the medical center of his Yaohui Group for treatment.
Zixuan's depression is very severe. She had visited many hospitals in China before, but the treatment was not very effective.
Later, Li Ze helped her contact Yaohui Group and get access to a special medicine that gave her a chance to be cured.
Come to think of it, several days have passed, and he hasn't made a single call to ask about Zixuan's condition.
This was indeed his oversight.
Li Ze quickly pressed the answer button.
The call was connected.
The voice of Zhang Jianguo, the brother-in-law, came through the phone immediately, filled with excitement:
"Hey! Brother-in-law! It's me! Jianguo!"
Zhang Jianguo sounded very happy, and there was even a slight choking in his voice as he spoke.
He said loudly:
"Thanks to your help, my daughter's illness is much better now! I am so, so grateful!"
Zhang Jianguo sighed and then said:
"Oh, I simply can't express my gratitude over the phone. You've been a tremendous help to our family!"
Li Ze was very happy to hear that Zixuan's illness had improved a lot.
He replied with a smile:
"Brother-in-law, you're being too polite. What are you talking about? We're all family, and family doesn't need to be so formal. It's only right that I treat your daughter's illness; you don't need to be so polite."
Zhang Jianguo responded with an "Ah!" on the other end of the phone and said:
"The more you say that, the more guilty I feel."
Zhang Jianguo paused for a moment, then asked very enthusiastically:
"By the way, brother-in-law, do you have time to come to America recently? Our daughter's illness has improved, so I'm planning to take her around here for a good time, to see all the sights. You know this place best, so it would be great if we could get together and have some fun. I'd also like to thank you properly in person."
Zhang Jianguo quickly added:
"Of course, it's okay if you're too busy, there's no need to force yourself."
When Li Ze heard his brother-in-law's invitation, he thought about it for a moment.
Then he answered very readily:
"Oh, going to America? Of course, that's no problem. Actually, I've been thinking about going there recently."
Upon hearing that Li Ze also had this plan, Zhang Jianguo asked with great curiosity:
"Oh? What do you mean? Brother-in-law, what brings you over there?"
Li Ze smiled and kept everyone in suspense:
"Well, I'll keep this a secret for now. But I need to go back and talk to Ruoran about this first. I'll get back to you once everything is settled."
Zhang Jianguo said loudly and happily on the other end of the phone:
"Okay, okay! I'll wait for your news here!"
The phone hangs up.
Li Ze put the phone back on the table.
He had a very happy smile on his face.
He picked up his teacup and took a big gulp of tea.
Then he muttered a few words to himself in a low voice:
"Going to America is definitely an option. It's also a good opportunity to see if there are any suitable places there for a wedding or honeymoon."
"If she's never been abroad in her life, taking her to America to see the world would be a wonderful thing."
"We can bring Ruoran along, plus my brother-in-law and Zixuan, and everyone can have a few days together there. Wouldn't that be great?"
