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

Li Ze followed Bai Qianyue into the Ze Ran Flower Shop.

Upon entering the shop, the air was filled with the fragrance of various fresh flowers.

Because it was still quite early, there weren't many customers in the store.

Bai Qianyue strolled slowly through the shop, looking at the flowers displayed on both sides.

She turned her head, looked at Li Ze, and said:

"Brother Li Ze, can you tell me about these flowers?"

Li Ze felt extremely helpless when he heard this request.

Actually, looking at all these colorful and diverse flowers in front of him, he really didn't know how to describe them.

After all, he arranged for his subordinate to handle everything from site selection and decoration to sourcing of goods for this flower shop.

He had no knowledge of flowers whatsoever, nor did he know the varieties or names of these flowers.

Bai Qianyue walked up to a shelf and stopped.

She stretched out her finger, pointed to a blue flower placed in front of her, and looked at Li Ze, as if waiting for him to speak.

Li Ze looked in the direction she was pointing.

He looked at the blue flower, completely unaware of its variety.

In Li Ze's eyes, it was just a blue flower with a rather unusual color.

He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Finally, Bai Qianyue spoke up herself.

She looked at the flower and said in a very gentle voice:

"This is a blue rose. It is very precious. It represents a very pure and unwavering emotion."

Bai Qianyue raised her head, looked into Li Ze's eyes, and then said:

"Just like this flower, some feelings will never change, no matter how many years have passed."

After saying these words, she waved to the shop assistant standing in the distance and said:

"I'll buy this flower."

Then, Bai Qianyue walked to the other side.

She then pointed to a pink rose and introduced it to Li Ze again.

She said:

"This is a pink snow mountain rose. The meaning of this rose is the beauty of first love, and that I will always keep you in my heart."

Bai Qianyue then looked at three different varieties of flowers in the flower shop.

She could accurately name each flower and explain the different meanings it represented.

Although Li Ze knew nothing about these flowers and didn't know if their meanings were true.

However, with Bai Qianyue's explanation, Li Ze could naturally tell the difference.

What Bai Qianyue wanted to express was already quite obvious.

Her words were alluding to what happened eighteen years ago, implying that her feelings for Li Ze had never changed.

She even implied that the two of them had to be together.

Li Ze felt a little irritated listening to these words.

He has made it very clear that Zhang Ruoran is the only one in his heart.

He didn't want to get entangled with Bai Qianyue on this topic any further.

Therefore, Li Ze did not respond to Bai Qianyue's words.

He turned around and shouted at the shop assistant:

"Come here for a moment, pay for all the flowers this lady has chosen, and pack them up."

Upon hearing the boss's instructions, the sales clerk immediately ran over and quickly began processing the flowers that Bai Qianyue had chosen.

After the sales clerk finished packing, Li Ze walked ahead, leading Bai Qianyue towards the store entrance.

He just wanted to get rid of this uninvited guest as soon as possible.

As they reached the shop entrance, Bai Qianyue looked at the beautifully packaged flowers in her hand and said to Li Ze:

"Brother Li Ze, your flower shop is really great."

"You have almost all the rare flowers from around the world here. It seems that I won't need to go anywhere else to buy flowers anymore; I can just come here directly."

Li Ze smiled slightly upon hearing this.

He looked at Bai Qianyue, his tone very calm, but very firm, and said:

"This flower shop was originally opened for Ruoran. I opened this shop to give her a surprise."

"So, if Ruoran likes something, I will naturally find a way to get it for her. It's only natural to buy her some of the best flowers from all over the world and put them here."

Li Ze deliberately brought up Zhang Ruoran's name in an attempt to make Bai Qianyue give up completely.

Upon hearing the words "Ruoran," Bai Qianyue's smile vanished instantly.

Her originally gentle attitude immediately changed.

She looked at Li Ze, changed her attitude, and said in a very professional and critical tone:

"Brother Li Ze, as the owner of this flower shop, you have absolutely no understanding of what you sell in your shop."

"You actually need me, a customer who came to buy flowers, to explain the names and meanings of these flowers to you?"

"Don't you think you're being incredibly unprofessional as a boss?"

Li Ze was not angry in the face of Bai Qianyue's accusations.

He nodded and readily admitted:

"You're right. I really don't know anything about flowers."

"I opened this shop only for Ruoran; I really don't have any professional knowledge about flowers. That's why I wanted Lao Yi to greet you from the beginning."

Bai Qianyue's expression softened slightly when she heard Li Ze's frankness.

She looked at Li Ze, her tone softening again, and said:

"Actually, you don't need to be discouraged. It's okay if you don't understand flowers."

"If you want to learn, you can come and sit in my coffee shop next door more often in the future."

"I know a lot about these flowers and coffee, and I can teach you slowly over there."

Upon hearing the invitation, Li Ze chuckled inwardly.

Go to her coffee shop to learn? That's impossible.

Li Ze casually replied:

"Haha, let's talk about this later. I'm usually quite busy with work, so I probably won't have much time to learn these things."

Li Ze originally thought that if he said that, Bai Qianyue would back down and leave.

However, Bai Qianyue did not leave.

She stood at the entrance of the flower shop, looked at Li Ze, and asked very seriously:

"Brother Li Ze, aren't you planning to come to my coffee shop today to support me?"

"After all, I made a point of getting up early today to buy flowers from your shop to support your business. It's only fair that we reciprocate."

Upon hearing this, Li Ze finally realized what was happening.

He looked at Bai Qianyue and suddenly realized what was going on.

Good guy.

It turns out that Bai Qianyue's visit to buy flowers this morning was just a facade.

Her real purpose has another layer of scheming.

She came to buy flowers just to create an irresistible reason for him to go to her newly opened coffee shop for coffee!

That's quite a deep thought.

Actually, Li Ze doesn't mind having a cup of coffee early in the morning.

After all, he got up quite early today, and a cup of coffee can help him stay alert and feel better.

However, going to Bai Qianyue's coffee shop for a drink... made him feel a little awkward.

Of course, he couldn't directly tell Bai Qianyue: "I'm afraid Ruoran will misunderstand if she sees this, so I can't go."

If he said that, it would make him seem too afraid of his wife, and Bai Qianyue would also think that he was deliberately avoiding her.

Li Ze thought for a moment and came up with a very reasonable excuse.

He said to Bai Qianyue:

"How about we do it another day? Look, your shop was still under construction last night, and it was only just finished this morning."

"The formaldehyde and other harmful gases in the newly renovated shop must still be very high. For the sake of your health, I think it's better to wait until it's ventilated for a while before going in."

Li Ze thought this reason was perfect, and Bai Qianyue would definitely not be able to refute it.

To everyone's surprise, Bai Qianyue smiled slightly after hearing this reason.

She looked at Li Ze and said with great confidence:

"Brother Li Ze, you don't need to worry about this at all."

"All the materials used in the renovation of my shop are natural and environmentally friendly adhesives, which will absolutely not produce any formaldehyde or other harmful gases."

"If you don't believe me, you can come to my store now. After we finished the renovation last night, we specifically hired a very professional formaldehyde testing team to conduct the tests there."

"They just gave me the final test results this morning. All indicators are zero, absolutely safe, you can go in and have coffee without worry."

Hearing Bai Qianyue put her words to this point, all the loopholes were plugged.

Li Ze couldn't help but sweat inwardly.

He realized that Bai Qianyue was determined to invite him over for coffee today.

Li Ze sighed helplessly.

He nodded and said:

"Alright then. Since you've put it that way, I'll go get a drink."

Bai Qianyue smiled triumphantly when she heard Li Ze finally agree.

She turned around, pointed to the shop next door, and said to Li Ze:

"This way, please."

Li Ze followed Bai Qianyue out of the flower shop and headed towards Yueze Coffee next door.
