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

At this moment, Dai Yuqian, sitting on the bed, looked at her phone, feeling a mix of emotions.

She remembered the WeChat messages Song Hao had sent her at noon that day.

In WeChat, Song Hao adopted a very humble attitude, repeatedly saying that what happened yesterday was his fault, that he had drunk too much and lost his composure in a moment of confusion.

He swore he would never do it again and hoped to be given a chance to apologize in person.

Dai Yuqian had originally decided to ignore him.

But Song Hao immediately followed up by saying that he wanted to take her to the mall to buy some things as compensation the next day.

He repeatedly emphasized that he was the student council president and that he would definitely do his best to help her with her future development in the student council.

Upon seeing the words "compensation for buying things" and "student union development," Dai Yuqian's defenses crumbled.

Although she disliked Song Hao's groping last night, she really didn't want to offend the chairman.

Moreover, if they could get some material compensation, it wouldn't seem like they were at a disadvantage.

So, she finally relented and agreed.

However, she also kept a watchful eye and made a three-point agreement with Song Hao: he could only go out during the day, come to find her at 2 pm, and he had to bring her back before 5 pm.

This is why she was able to agree to meet at six o'clock in the evening so quickly when Meng Han asked her out.

Because the timing was perfectly staggered.

However, when Dai Yuqian saw Meng Han's message, "Baby is the best," she felt a little uneasy and even a little guilty.

Subconsciously, she understood that the reason she forgave Song Hao was largely because Song Hao was willing to spend money on her.

The reason she agreed to Meng Han's request so readily was simply because time allowed, and because Meng Han filled the remaining gap.

What if there's a time conflict?

What if Song Hao asks her to stay with him at night?

Who will she choose?

Dai Yuqian didn't dare to think about this question too deeply, and quickly shook her head to banish the thought from her mind.

……

The next day was the second day of the Lunar New Year.

According to tradition, today is the day for sons-in-law to return to their parents' home to pay New Year's greetings.

Li Ze attached great importance to this.

Before returning to Lijiacun last night, he specifically instructed Lao Yi to load the car with all the top-quality New Year's goods that had been prepared in advance.

Since this is the first official visit in eighteen years, it must be done in a grand and impressive manner; we absolutely cannot leave empty-handed.

We mustn't let those sisters-in-law laugh at us.

Maintaining good relations with her family is also a crucial step in winning Ruoran back.

Around 8 a.m., Li Ze drove to the entrance of the old house in Zhangjiazhai.

Zhang Ruoran was stunned when she opened the trunk.

The trunk was crammed full of high-end imported liquors and top-quality cigars.

There are also various expensive supplements with English packaging that I can't understand.

Zhang Ruoran looked at Li Ze helplessly:

"Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?"

"We're just visiting relatives, why are you bringing so many valuable things? People who don't know better will think you're here to deliver goods."

Li Ze smiled as he carried a case of red wine down and said:

"If that's the case, then you don't understand."

"I haven't seen them for eighteen years, and they're returnees from overseas. How can I not bring back some foreign goods?"

"Besides, in the minds of the older generation, the rarer something is and the more fashionable its packaging is, the more valuable it is."

"By bringing these things, I am giving them face and showing that I value our family relationship."

Zhang Ruoran shook her head, her words expressing disdain, but her eyes still held a smile:

"Fine, I'm fed up with you. You've got a whole bunch of twisted logic."

"But you really went to great lengths this time; this whole truckload of stuff must have cost a lot of money, right?"

Li Ze waved his hand, looking relaxed:

"No, no, that's not true at all. This little bit of money is nothing."

Li Mengli, who was helping to move things nearby, interjected:

"Yes, Mom, don't worry about Dad spending the money."

"For dads these days, money is just a string of numbers; they can't spend it all."

Zhang Ruoran rolled her eyes at the father and daughter and joked:

"So, according to you, why didn't your dad just bring back a truckload of gold bars as New Year's gifts? Wouldn't that be more valuable and conspicuous?"

Li Ze stroked his chin and thought about it seriously for a moment:

"It's not impossible."

"If you like, I'll bring over a truckload of gold bricks on the second day of the Lunar New Year next year."

Zhang Ruoran was amused and reached out to push him:

"Screw you! Forget it!"

"If you really brought a carload of gold, it would scare people to death. They'd think you were going to rob a gold vault."

The family chatted and laughed, creating a particularly harmonious atmosphere.

After packing his things, Li Ze drove Zhang Ruoran to visit each of Zhang's elders and relatives to offer New Year's greetings.

……

the other side.

Han City, Pinganli Community.

It was already 10 a.m.

Dai Yuqian was at home watching TV with her parents when her phone suddenly rang.

It was Song Hao calling.

She quickly grabbed her phone and ran to the balcony to answer it:

"Feed? What's wrong?"

On the other end of the phone, Song Hao's voice sounded somewhat lazy:

"Sisi, are you home? I'm downstairs right now, come down."

"Let's go shopping now, and have a nice lunch while we're at it. I'll make you apologize properly."

Upon hearing this, Dai Yuqian immediately became anxious:

"What? You're downstairs?"

"This is so sudden! Didn't we agree to go this afternoon? My mom's taking me to visit relatives later!"

Song Hao said somewhat impatiently:

"Ugh, why bother visiting relatives? It's so boring."

"Just tell your mom that a friend you haven't seen in a long time has come back from out of town and wants to see you. That'll give you a reason, right?"

Dai Yuqian was somewhat embarrassed:

"That won't do. It's not right to lie during the Lunar New Year..."

"No matter what, it should be after lunch, after 2 PM, right?"

Song Hao's tone hardened:

"Sissi, I'm downstairs now, and the car is off."

"I'll give you five minutes."

"If you don't come down, I'll go upstairs and knock on your mother's door, and tell her that I'm your boyfriend and I've come to wish you and your mother a Happy New Year."

"You didn't want that, did you?"

Dai Yuqian stomped her foot in anger:

"You... I'm truly speechless!"

"Okay, okay, I'll tell my mom right now, just don't do anything reckless!"

After hanging up the phone, Dai Yuqian angrily threw her phone onto the bed.

How come Song Hao has become increasingly outrageous since what happened yesterday? He completely disregards her feelings.

But there was nothing she could do; she was downstairs and had no choice but to give in.

After telling her mother a lie, Dai Yuqian put on some simple makeup, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.

As soon as I stepped out of the building, I saw Song Hao wearing a black leather jacket and large sunglasses.

He was leaning against the door of that Porsche 718, looking incredibly cool and arrogant.

Seeing Dai Yuqian get out of the car, a sly smile crept across his face as he walked over and opened the car door.

"That's right, get in the car."

Dai Yuqian was furious and said irritably:

"Song Hao, could you please let me know in advance next time you invite me out?"

"They always launch surprise attacks like this, leaving me in a very passive position."

Song Hao wasn't angry and said:

"Oh dear, I'm very busy, I have a lot of work."

"I took time out of my busy schedule to do this, so please understand."

Dai Yuqian rolled her eyes:

"I really believe you now."

As the car drove out of the residential area, Song Hao turned to look at her and said with a smile:

"Alright, don't be angry."

"To show my sincerity, I'll take you directly to SKP."

"When we get there, you can pick out a gift yourself, whether it's a Chanel bag or Gucci shoes, as long as you like it, I'll pay for it."

Upon hearing this, Dai Yuqian's tightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed, and her eyes lit up.

"Huh? Really?"

"Are you going to take me to buy those big brands?"

Song Hao nodded, looking quite forthright.

"Of course."

"What happened yesterday was indeed my fault; I frightened you."

"So it's only natural that I take you to buy something expensive; it's a small token of my appreciation."

Dai Yuqian's anger subsided considerably.

Chanel and Gucci, those are things she can only look at online normally.

"However..."

Song Hao suddenly changed the subject, his tone becoming somewhat ambiguous.

Dai Yuqian's heart tightened:

"But what?"

Song Hao turned his head, a wicked smile appearing on his face, his eyes sweeping over her:

"However, I hope you can also give me something in return."

"After all, it's about reciprocity."

Dai Yuqian immediately became restless and looked at him warily:

"What do you mean?"

Song Hao smiled:

"It means exactly what it says."

"Although I am making amends to you, such an expensive gift would easily cost several thousand or even tens of thousands."

"It wouldn't be fair if you didn't give me something in return, or at least a little something in return, would it?"

Dai Yuqian's expression changed, and she said loudly:

"What are you thinking?!"

"I have a boyfriend! I'm not single! Don't get any funny ideas!"

"If that's the case, I don't want it anymore. Take me back!"

Upon hearing this, Song Hao neither stopped the car nor became angry.

He simply held the steering wheel with one hand, and slowly took his phone out of his pocket with the other.

He swiped the screen, opened a photo, and handed it to Dai Yuqian.

"Sissi, don't get so excited."

"Take a look at this first."

Dai Yuqian looked down and froze instantly, as if her blood had frozen.

The photo shows the scene from that day in a private room at the bar.

Her face was flushed from drinking, her eyes were glazed, and she was leaning softly against Song Hao's chest.

Song Hao's hand was around her waist, and their posture looked extremely ambiguous, even intimate.

Song Hao put his phone away, looked ahead, and said in a light tone:

"I imagine you wouldn't want your poor boyfriend, Li Menghan, to see this photo, would you?"
