Middle-aged tycoon: Twins come knocking on his door when he goes home for Chinese New Year

As soon as Zhang Jianguo entered the room, he saw Li Ze pinning his daughter against the wall, with blood and a knife on the floor.

My mind went blank for a moment, and I thought Li Ze was bullying his daughter.

"Li Ze! What are you doing?!"

Zhang Jianguo roared, his eyes turning red, and rushed forward to attack.

Li Mengli quickly stepped in front of her uncle and shouted loudly:

"Uncle! Don't be impulsive! It was my dad who saved Zixuan!"

"Sister Zixuan was about to cut her wrists, but my dad knocked the knife away and stopped the bleeding!"

Zhang Jianguo froze, and then he saw clearly what Li Ze was doing: he was pressing on his daughter's wound.

A wave of shame washed over him, and he rushed over:

"I'm sorry...brother-in-law, I..."

"Stop talking, quickly come and comfort the child!"

Li Ze, covered in sweat, gave up his seat.

Jiang Qiuyan, the eldest sister-in-law, rushed over and hugged her daughter, bursting into tears:

"Zixuan! You're trying to rip out my heart! If anything happens to you, I won't live anymore!"

In her parents' arms, Zhang Zixuan finally stopped struggling, but her body kept convulsing as she cried loudly.

At this moment, everyone looked at Geng Qi, the third sister-in-law, who was standing to the side at a loss.

Jiang Qiuyan, the eldest sister-in-law, suddenly stood up, rushed over, shoved Geng Qi, and pointed at her nose, cursing:

"Geng Qi! What are you up to?!"

"You know perfectly well that Zixuan is sick and can't handle any stress, so why did you have to touch her things?!"

"If anything happens to Zixuan today, I'll never forgive you!"

Geng Qi also looked aggrieved, but at this moment she knew she was in the wrong, and whispered in her defense:

"Sister-in-law, I...I really didn't mean to."

"I just saw that the shoes were expensive and wanted to try on my size so I could buy a pair later..."

"Who knew this child would have such a temper..."

"You still dare to talk back!" Zhang Jianguo snapped, glaring at his third sister-in-law. "From now on, you're not allowed in Zixuan's room!"

The scene was chaotic.

Seeing that the child was alright, Li Ze pulled his frightened daughter out of the west wing.

We arrived in the courtyard.

At this moment, Zhang Ruoran also rushed back from outside and witnessed this farce.

The second brother and his wife, along with several younger relatives, were all gossiping in the courtyard, criticizing the third sister-in-law for being insensible.

Zhang Ruoran walked over with a worried look on her face and asked Li Ze:

"Just now... was Zixuan really going to commit suicide?"

Li Ze nodded and wiped the sweat from his forehead:

"Yeah, the knife was at his wrist, and he bled quite a bit."

"Luckily, I discovered it in time and managed to take the knife away."

Zhang Ruoran was terrified and patted her chest.

"Thanks to you, otherwise my brother and sister-in-law wouldn't have been able to get through the New Year."

Li Mengli, holding her mother's arm, whispered:

"Mom, you scared me to death! Luckily, Dad is good at fighting."

Li Ze looked around and asked:

"Where's Meng Han? Didn't she come back with you?"

Zhang Ruoran sighed:

"Grandma held onto Menghan, not letting him leave, saying that she hadn't seen him for a year and insisted that he stay for a meal."

"I figured it was a mess here, so I left him there and planned to pick him up later."

Li Ze nodded. This was for the best, so the child wouldn't have to see such a bloody scene.

At this moment, Zhang Zixuan's crying inside the room gradually subsided; she must have fallen asleep from exhaustion.

Zhang Ruoran sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, looking at the west wing with a face full of worry:

"well……"

"Zixuan's illness is getting more and more serious."

"She used to just be quiet, but now she has self-harm tendencies."

"My older brother and sister-in-law took her to all the major hospitals in the country, and she took handfuls of medicine, but she still didn't get better."

"What's the use of my brother earning so much money? In the end, our daughter is like this. How can this family be happy?"

Seeing Zhang Ruoran's worried expression, Li Ze had an idea.

He recalled his previous plans.

I originally planned to wait until a while before bringing it up, but given the current situation, saving lives is urgent and we can't delay any longer.

Li Ze walked up to Zhang Ruoran and said earnestly:

"If that's the case, don't worry too much."

"I have a way to treat Zixuan's illness."

Zhang Ruoran paused for a moment, then turned to look at Li Ze, her eyes full of suspicion:

"Do you have a solution?"

"Even the specialists at the major hospitals can't do anything, what can you do?"

"You're not a doctor."

Li Ze didn't explain much, he just calmly said:

"When I was in America, I casually invested in a top-tier biopharmaceutical company."

"They recently developed a highly effective drug for major depressive disorder, which, when combined with psychological intervention therapy, has a very high cure rate."

"It hasn't been introduced to China yet, but it's been very effective abroad."

"I can arrange for my older brother to take Zixuan to the United States for treatment, and I will cover all the expenses."

Zhang Ruoran was stunned.

Investment company? Miracle drug?

She looked at Li Ze, her mind filled with questions:

"What company? You also have a pharmaceutical company?"

"Didn't you say you only made a few million outside?"

At this moment, Li Mengli, who was standing next to her, finally couldn't hold back anymore.

She jumped out excitedly, and said with a proud look on her face:

"Oh my god! You don't know!"

"Dad was lying to you!"

"Actually, Dad is amazing! He owns so many companies! He's much richer than you think!"

"That is..."

"Ahem!"

Li Ze coughed, interrupting his daughter's boasting.

Now is not the time to flaunt wealth.

Looking at the father and daughter, Zhang Ruoran felt like a fool who had been kept in the dark.

"Li Ze, how many things are you still hiding from me?"

Li Ze took a deep breath, stood up, and became extremely serious.

"If that's the case, we'll discuss company matters later."

"I have something more important and urgent to tell you now."

Zhang Ruoran's heart skipped a beat. Looking at Li Ze's serious expression, she immediately had a bad feeling:

"What is it?"

Li Ze took his phone out of his pocket and unlocked the screen.

He looked directly into Zhang Ruoran's eyes and said, word by word:

"These past few days, someone with the contact name 'Bai Qianyue' has been sending me harassing text messages."

"I don't know if it's that Bai Qianyue, but I have to tell you."

As he spoke, he handed his phone to Zhang Ruoran.

When he placed the phone in front of her, Zhang Ruoran felt her brain pounding.

What happened this morning was truly exciting.

First, her niece Zhang Zixuan was in the house holding a knife and trying to cut her wrists. The sight of blood on the floor horrified her.

Then Li Ze said that there was a pharmaceutical company in America that could cure Zixuan's illness.

Before he could catch his breath, he pulled out his phone again, saying that Bai Qianyue from eighteen years ago had come to his door.

These incidents, one after another, bombarded her like a barrage of cannon fire, leaving her head buzzing.

Zhang Ruoran took Li Ze's phone and glanced down at the screen.

"Li Ze, it's definitely me. We haven't seen each other for eighteen years, I've missed you so much..."

Looking at the ambiguous text message, Zhang Ruoran's brows furrowed even more.

Li Mengli, who was standing next to her, also craned her neck to look.

Although she didn't know much about the aunt named Bai Qianyue.

But after listening to my parents' conversations these past few days, I roughly know that she was a little girl who pursued my dad very hard back then.

But eighteen years have passed.

We're all middle-aged now, how can this auntie still say such mushy things?

After a while, Zhang Ruoran took a deep breath and handed the phone back to Li Ze.

She looked up at Li Ze with a complex expression, her tone carrying a hint of scrutiny:

"Li Ze, tell me the truth."

"Are you sure the person who sent the text message is Bai Qianyue from back then?"

Li Ze shook his head helplessly:

I'm not sure.

"I also find it strange. We hadn't been in contact for eighteen years, and then he suddenly reappeared. It's really suspicious."

Zhang Ruoran gave a cold laugh:

"Since you're unsure and don't know her, why do you insist on seeing her?"

"I bet you're still thinking about her, aren't you? Are you hoping to use this opportunity to rekindle your old flame with that girl who's always chasing after you?"
