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

After lunch, everyone lounged on the sofa in the living room, looking relaxed and carefree.

As the saying goes, "When you're well-fed and warm, you start to think about sex..." No, it's more like "When you're well-fed and warm, you start to want to sleep."

But it's not good to go to sleep right after eating during the Lunar New Year, and staying at home can be a bit boring, just staring at each other.

After resting for a while, Zhang Ruoran stood up, looked at Li Menghan who was slumped on the sofa with a lifeless expression, and said:

"Menghan, stop standing there in a daze. Come on, let's go for a walk with Mom."

Li Menghan lazily raised her eyelids:

"Where are we going? It's freezing outside, I'm not going."

Zhang Ruoran said while putting on her coat:

"Let's go visit your school. Han City University is right next door, perfect for a walk to digest our food."

Upon hearing this, Li Menghan became even more displeased, shaking her head vigorously like a rattle drum:

"No, no. What's so interesting about visiting the school? I'm going back in a couple of days, and I'll be staying there for several months. It's so boring."

"Besides, I'm not in the mood for it right now."

He's currently consumed by the pain of heartbreak. Seeing the school reminds him of the days he and Dai Yuqian would walk hand in hand on campus during high school. Isn't that just self-torture?

Zhang Ruoran walked over and pulled her son up:

"Oh, just keep Mom company. Mom wants to go to a university campus and feel the youthful energy."

"For so many years, Mom has been busy earning money to support the family and has never had a proper chance to visit a university."

At this moment, Li Mengli, who was peeling an orange beside her, interjected:

"Mom, you're not thinking of going to school to reminisce about your youth with Dad, are you?"

Zhang Ruoran blushed and glared at her daughter.

"Eat your oranges and stop talking nonsense."

Li Menghan was pulled up, but she still didn't want to move.

"Mom, if you want to reminisce about the past, wouldn't it be better to go to your old school? Why do you have to go to my school?"

Zhang Ruoran sighed, a hint of helplessness in her eyes:

"You don't know this, do you? Our old school was demolished a long time ago."

"It's been demolished?"

Li Mengli and Li Menghan both looked surprised, and even Li Ze was stunned for a moment.

Zhang Ruoran explained:

"That school was privately run back then, but it was poorly managed and couldn't recruit any students. You know, there were so many diploma mills back then."

"Our school was later labeled as a diploma mill and shut down. The land was sold to developers to build houses."

"Even if I wanted to go back and take a look, I couldn't even find a gate."

Hearing this, Li Ze felt a pang of sadness.

Things have changed so much.

There's nowhere to reminisce about my youthful days.

Zhang Ruoran didn't say anything more, and pulled the reluctant Li Menghan towards the door:

"Alright, let's go. Just consider it as keeping Mom company and helping her relax."

Seeing this, Li Ze quickly stood up and straightened his clothes:

"Then I'll go too. It would be so romantic for the whole family to stroll around the campus together."

To his surprise, Zhang Ruoran turned around, glared at him, and held up her hand in a gesture to stop.

"Don't follow me."

"I want to talk to my son alone; he doesn't feel comfortable with you around."

"You should stay home, or keep Mengli company."

Li Ze was met with a cold shoulder, but knowing it was to comfort his son, he could only nod helplessly.

"Alright then, be careful. Call me if anything happens."

Zhang Ruoran took Li Menghan out.

Only Li Ze and his daughter Li Mengli remained in the room.

Li Ze sat back down on the sofa and looked at his daughter:

"Honey, would you like to take a walk around the school?"

Li Mengli tossed the orange peel aside and shook her head vigorously.

"I'm not going. It's a rare holiday, who would go back to school for no reason? Isn't that just asking for trouble?"

Li Ze laughed heartily, slapped his thigh, and said:

"Your idea is absolutely right! It makes perfect sense!"

"Going to school during holidays is really just asking for trouble."

Li Mengli blinked, somewhat surprised:

"Wait a minute, Dad, according to the tropes in TV dramas, shouldn't you be teaching me to love learning and love school?"

Li Ze waved his hand, looking like someone who'd been there all along:

"You don't understand. I'm your father, and I've been through this before."

"I know how tiring and boring studying is. When I was in school, I used to skip classes all the time to go to internet cafes."

"Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you. I'm not going to give you that toxic motivational talk."

Li Mengli giggled upon hearing this:

"Well, I never knew you were this kind of dad! The king of truancy!"

Li Ze smiled, then suddenly remembered something, took out a black bank card from his pocket, and handed it to Li Mengli:

"By the way, you should be going back to school to register the day after tomorrow, right?"

Li Mengli nodded:

"yes."

"Take it."

Li Ze handed the card to his daughter:

"Take this card; there are two hundred million in it."

"Don't be too frugal at school. Buy whatever you want and eat whatever you want."

"If you run out of money or don't have enough, just tell Dad and he'll send you more."

Holding the light yet incredibly heavy card, Li Mengli nodded excitedly:

"Dad, you're so wonderful!"

"Two hundred million...!"

She clicked her tongue inwardly in amazement.

Goodness, what kind of person can spend 200 million on college?

That money could probably buy their entire school, right?

If she could really buy it, she would definitely build a private villa for herself on the school grounds.

After class, I would invite my best friends over and have parties at the villa every day. Those days were absolutely wonderful!

Looking at his daughter's absent-minded expression, Li Ze smiled and asked:

"What are you thinking about? Have you decided to buy anything?"

Li Mengli snapped out of her daze, tilted her head, and thought for a moment:

"Hmm... there are just so many things I want to buy."

"But I'm also a little worried. If I buy a bunch of designer bags and clothes to wear to school, will it be too flashy?"

"What if I feel out of place with my roommates, and they isolate me?"

Li Ze nodded, seemingly lost in thought:

"That is indeed a problem."

After all, university is a microcosm of society, and being too high-profile can easily attract jealousy.

However, he quickly shrugged and said nonchalantly:

"But it's up to you."

"Anyway, I think it doesn't matter if you don't fit in with them."

"At worst, I'll donate a few buildings to your principal and have him reassign you some roommates who are more compatible with you, right?"

"Or we could just let you live in a whole building by yourself, that would be quieter."

Li Mengli burst into laughter upon hearing this:

"Hahaha! Dad, you're making that sound so easy!"

"Having a dad who can do whatever he wants and has absolute power feels so great!"

After laughing, Li Mengli's eyes lit up, as if she had remembered something:

"But then again, there is one big item I really want to buy."

"What?" Li Ze asked.

"I want to buy a car! A sports car!"

Li Mengli excitedly gestured with her fingers:

"Like Ferraris and Lamborghinis! The kind that roar!"

"I also want to experience what it's like to drive a sports car!"

Upon hearing this, Li Ze thought the request was too simple and immediately agreed:

"Sure, no problem. I'll take you to pick one out later."

"But..." Li Ze glanced at his daughter, "Do you have a driver's license?"

Li Mengli's face immediately fell, and she shook her head:

"No……"

"I haven't even turned eighteen yet, I haven't had a chance to start learning."

Li Ze slapped his thigh and stood up:

"Isn't that simple?"

"Come on, Dad will take you to driving school. Let's register first, and then practice driving while we have some free time these next couple of days."

"OK!"

Li Mengli jumped up excitedly.

The father and daughter hit it off immediately and went straight out the door.

The old man was already waiting at the entrance in his Maybach S680.

Li Mengli got into the car, touched the genuine leather seats, and sighed:

"Dad, you have so many luxury cars! And they all seem to be different."

Li Ze leaned back in his chair and said calmly:

"Nonsense, in your dad's eyes, these cars are no different from the toy cars we played with when we were kids."

"You can choose any garage in our house you like from now on."

Li Mengli looked at her father with admiration:

"Dad, you're so capable!"

The car drove very fast and soon we arrived at our destination.

This is a large driving school located in the suburbs. The grounds are very spacious and the facilities look very new.

After getting out of the car, Li Mengli looked at the huge sign at the entrance of the driving school and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

On the large blue sign with white lettering, four large characters were clearly written—

【Mengli Driving School】.

Li Mengli rubbed her eyes, pointed at the signboard, turned to look at Li Ze, and stammered:

"No...no, Father..."

"Why does this driving school have the same name as mine?"

"You didn't open a driving school just so I could get my driver's license, did you?"

Li Ze laughed heartily and reached out to rub his daughter's head:

"Haha, you figured that out."

"There's no other way. My daughter wants to take her driving test, so of course she needs the best facilities and instructors, and it has to be a private session!"
