Magnate Tycoon: How Did Simply Enjoying Life Make Me a Male God?

Chapter 206: Guard



That night, Li Jing had the most sumptuous meal at home.

Chicken, duck, fish, and meat, everything was there. Even though there were only three people eating, the table was filled with delicacies.

Around the dining table, the family sat together. Liu Mei had endless concerns to express, while Li Weijun constantly wore a gentle smile.

The slight sound of clinking bowls and chopsticks, the crisp sound of wine glasses clinking, and the occasional sound of fireworks outside all added a unique festive happiness to this reunion moment.

Under the light, the shadows of the three were stretched out very long, intertwined, like a painting that could warm anyone's heart, filled with warmth and fulfillment.

The next day.

Both Li Weijun and Li Jing slept in until after nine, only Liu Mei got up early to cook breakfast for the men in the family and then started cleaning.

When Li Jing woke up and saw the steaming breakfast on the table, he felt a warmth in his heart; no matter how life was in Tianhai, home was always the warmest place in his heart.

After Li Jing finished washing up and eating breakfast, he took out the gifts he had brought back from his luggage.

Last night they had such a long dinner that he hadn't even opened his luggage and fell asleep in a daze.

This morning, Li Jing finally took out the gifts he had prepared.

"Oh, my, why did you buy so many things? Your dad and I can't use all this stuff."

Seeing Li Jing take out one box after another from his suitcase that was like a treasure chest, Liu Mei was pleasantly surprised but also felt a pang of heartache over Li Jing's spending.

"We're getting old, there's no need to buy things for us, it's enough that you can come back."

"It's nothing, I have money now, buying you and dad some gifts is what I should do."

Li Jing laid out all the things he bought for them.

"This is for you, this is for dad, this is yours..."

The table was soon filled with Li Jing's gifts, including jewelry, skincare products, Moutai, watches, and various other items.

For the female-related items, Li Jing specifically asked An Tong to help pick them out.

The two watches for his parents were personally selected by Li Jing, IWC and Longines, each worth about thirty to forty thousand.

It's not that Li Jing wasn't willing to buy more expensive ones, but giving his parents watches worth hundreds of thousands to millions would only bring them stress and trouble.

Watches worth several tens of thousands were already the upper limit of what his parents could emotionally handle, and they wouldn't draw attention from ill-intentioned people.

"Oh wow, that's good liquor!"

At this point, Li Weijun, who got drunk last night, finally woke up and slowly came out of the bedroom. His eyes instantly landed on the Moutai on the table, and a visible smile spread across his face.

"Is there anything else in your eyes besides alcohol?"

Seeing him notice only the wine as soon as he got up, Liu Mei got annoyed and swatted his arm, frowning, "Go wash up and eat breakfast. Your son is back, and yet you're having a good sleep!"

Being teased by Liu Mei, Li Weijun wasn't angry. Instead, he turned to Li Jing with delight, "This is good wine, let's have a few glasses at lunch!"

"Drinking again?"

Liu Mei's eyes widened, "Did you forget what the doctor told you? I didn't say anything about you drinking a little because your son came back yesterday. You have to wait a day before you can drink this wine!"

"What does the doctor know? Don't I understand my own body?"

Some days ago, Li Weijun was forced by Liu Mei to have a check-up, where the doctor advised him to drink less. Thus, Liu Mei started to supervise his drinking frequency.

Although Li Weijun retorted, he knew deep down that his body couldn't handle continuous drinking, so he waved it off, "Forget it, I won't argue with you. We'll save this wine for the New Year's Day so everyone can have a taste of good wine."

Watching his parents' daily bickering, Li Jing shook his head helplessly. This way of getting along had been maintained for decades; they could argue over small things, but fortunately, it would never lead to a real fight.

Spending most of his time in Tianhai, Li Jing now felt the familiar atmosphere of his parents' interactions again, which made him nostalgic for the days he once spent at home.

Then, he smiled and said, "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. While there's still time today, I'll go out and buy some things for you."

"Buying more things?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Mei quickly waved her hand, "No need, no need, what you've bought is already enough."

"I haven't bought you new clothes for the New Year yet. I was afraid that buying them in Tianhai wouldn't fit, so I came back specifically to buy them for you."

With that, Li Jing turned to Li Weijun and said, "Besides, in our hometown, it's not convenient for you to take the bus every day. I've contacted a car dealership to buy you a car."

Li Weijun, who was about to agree with Liu Mei on not letting Li Jing continue buying things, suddenly changed his expression upon hearing about buying a car. He quickly asked, "Son, you want to buy me a car?"

"Yes." Li Jing knew his father had always wanted his own car, so he smiled, "Well, what do you say, do you want to go?"

Upon hearing this, Li Weijun couldn't help but feel tempted.

When he went to Tianhai for National Day last time, he found out that his son had made a fortune and had thought about mentioning buying a car to him.

But after discussing with Liu Mei, they ultimately didn't mention it.

In their hearts, their money could be used unconditionally for their son, but their son's money should be used for his own life and future family; they shouldn't impose a burden on their son.

With such thoughts, Li Weijun once again suppressed his ten-year longing to buy a car.

Now seeing Li Jing bring it up spontaneously, he became excited inside but couldn't help glancing at Liu Mei.

Although he was the head of the family, he always discussed every matter, big or small, with Liu Mei.

Liu Mei was also taken aback by Li Jing's plan to buy a car and couldn't help but softly ask, "Son, be honest, how much money have you really made? Buying a car is not a small thing. If you have to take out a loan, there's really no need..."

"Mom, don't worry. It's just a car, no need for a loan."

Li Jing knew they were worried about him spending too much money, so he smiled and said, "Your son has enough money now to buy you ten cars, so you can just spend money without worry."

"This..."

Upon hearing this, Liu Mei was still a bit hesitant, and even car-loving Li Weijun showed some reluctance.

For their generation, they had long developed thrifty habits and restrained their material desires.

Moreover, years of struggling at the bottom of society made them deeply understand the difficulty of making money. So, no matter how much Li Jing earned, they felt it was hard-earned by him and instinctively felt heartache, not wanting him to spend extra.

Besides, Li Weijun and Liu Mei held traditional views, believing they should do their utmost to help their child, not the other way around.

Seeing his parents hesitating, Li Jing didn't wait for them to make a decision; he directly took each of them by the hand and led them out, saying, "Alright, alright, stop hesitating. It's just a car. At the very least, believe in your son's ability to earn money."

Being led forward by Li Jing, Liu Mei looked at the arm her son was holding, moved slightly, and couldn't help exchanging a glance with Li Weijun.

They realized that their son had really grown up.

Once, home was a warm harbor sheltering him from the storm; now, he had the power to safeguard this harbor.
