Chapter 2096: Chapter 2097: The First Wife Leaves Without a Penny 16

Lin Yu sat in the study, staring at the computer. Looking at the data on the screen, he really didn’t want to spend that money. He was allowed to name the price, but there was only one chance.

The intention behind it was clear to him. Wasn’t it just treating him like a fool?

He really didn’t want to spend the money, but sitting in front of the computer and staring at it for a long time, he had no idea what to do.

Could he only turn to Zhang Yu in the end? Lin Yu was really unwilling.

After Zhang Yu got home, she took a nice bath, washed a plate of her favorite fruit, then sat in front of the computer and opened a document to edit the original document.

Lin Yu had mentioned it before, the original owner had already started working on it. Looking at the plan made by the original owner, it was quite good, quite impressive indeed.

But this, the original owner really held back a bit; showcasing too much all at once could make enemies for Lin Yu.

The original owner considered these things. But did Zhang Yu need to consider them? She didn’t need to think about it at all. Wasn’t someone fond of being in the spotlight? Didn’t he want to be the focal point of attention?

This plan wasn’t very good; Zhang Yu felt it could be done much better. Thinking of this, she started revising it again.

"It must be stunning, and it must make someone realize that the money was truly well spent."

"As for making enemies, does he need to care? After all, he has the backing of the Han family."

Zhang Yu felt it wasn’t a big deal. If Lin Yu couldn’t even handle this matter, then it meant he was truly failing.

After thinking for a long time, Lin Yu realized that the money truly had to be spent, but if he had to spend it, how much should he give?

Lin Yu was torn again. After considering it, "How about thirty?"

But if it’s thirty... Lin Yu thought it over, "Forget it, fifty is the maximum."

Lin Yu made up his mind that if it went any higher, he’d rather not spend it.

Zhang Yu reviewed the document again. It looked great, really great. She saved it and prepared to rest.

Just then, the phone rang. She picked it up and saw it was indeed her ex-husband. Knowing he was calling about money, she felt a sense of satisfaction.

After answering the call, Zhang Yu remained silent, waiting for Lin Yu to speak.

Helplessly, Lin Yu spoke first: I’m really out of time; I need it the day after tomorrow.

Zhang Yu listened quietly, not making a sound.

Panic, real panic, left him unsure of what to say without her speaking. Helplessly, he said: I think I can give fifty thousand.

Forget it, let’s not play it safe and be straightforward: this is the highest I can offer, and if you’re not satisfied...

Fifty thousand, huh? Zhang Yu originally thought getting thirty thousand from this stingy guy would already make her very happy. After all, she just earned tens of thousands from him.

To her surprise, he was so generous, directly offering fifty thousand, which made her very happy. She initially intended to dig a pit for someone, and now that someone was so generous.

But hearing what he said afterward, Zhang Yu immediately felt all sorts of dissatisfaction. She admitted she needed money, but his attitude really annoyed her.

Zhang Yu: Since you said that, let’s not work together.

Zhang Yu directly hung up the phone, immediately put it on silent mode, then did a quick wash before heading straight to bed.

What a disaster, Lin Yu never expected Zhang Yu to refuse. This was fifty thousand, and she didn’t want it?

This wasn’t a small amount. Her annual income was only a fraction of that. Just as Lin Yu was feeling all sorts of resentment, he remembered the things he gave her during the divorce, the house payment, and the compensation he had just handed over.

He knew Zhang Yu really wasn’t short on money now. Just as she said, she wasn’t short on money and just wanted to see him have a tough time.

They weren’t a couple now. If he had a tough time, his ex-wife would be delighted.

Aargh, Lin Yu knew that if he didn’t make this deal, it would only cost Zhang Yu fifty thousand, but his loss would be much greater.

Finally, helplessly, he could only take a deep breath, look at his stock account, where he still had a substantial sum.

Looking at the stocks at hand, he really felt unwilling, but no matter how unwilling he was, what could he do? Once he stabilized his job, wouldn’t it be easy to make money in the stock market in the future?

After calculating, he gritted his teeth, "Forget it, take this deal and prove his capabilities."

Now, he was already divorced from Zhang Yu, just a single man. As for Han Xue, because of the child in her belly, the Han family would relent.

When he rose step by step in the financial circle and when the Han family couldn’t control him any longer, he could find someone outside to have children.

What? Lin Zixuan? Although he is his son, his firstborn, Lin Yu really felt unfamiliar with this child. He didn’t have much chance to interact with the child, especially since the child had a good relationship with Zhang Yu. How could a child she raised be good to him as a father?

Lin Yu was in a great mood, already envisioning himself many years later. In any case, he was determined to be successful, to make his mark in the financial world, and to be like Mr. Han.

Lin Yu picked up the phone to call Zhang Yu again, but there was no response. It angered him greatly, "Damn it, why isn’t she answering the phone again."

"I really don’t understand the point of having a phone; you can never be reached."

When Zhang Yu woke up, she was in a great mood. After starting breakfast on the steamer, she began to exercise. A beautiful morning begins with exercise.

After she finished her shower, she found Lin Yu had called. She laughed and answered the phone, wondering if the God of Wealth would be generous this time.

When the phone connected, Lin Yu was thrilled: What’s going on? I’ve called you many times, and you didn’t answer. Why do you even have a phone?

Scolding someone first thing in the morning made Zhang Yu very unhappy: I used to call you and you didn’t answer either. Now, just because I occasionally don’t pick up, you’re angry. What, am I supposed to answer every time?

Getting angry too, Zhang Yu said: Spit it out or beat it.

Hearing Zhang Yu’s blunt words, Lin Yu backed down: I thought about it, a million.

Zhang Yu: A million and a half. Agree, and once the money is in my account, I’ll give it to you immediately.

Asking for a million and a half made Lin Yu take a sharp breath. You know, even a million was making him grit his teeth, but he didn’t expect she could be so greedy.

Lin Yu: I’ll just make a bit of money with this deal.

Zhang Yu: That’s your business. You use this deal to prove your ability; you can smoothly enter the Han family’s sight; you can marry Han Xue.

Lin Yu was displeased: I’m marrying Han Xue.

Zhang Yu: Are you sure? The Han family isn’t my family. Your parents can boss me around, but let your mom try that with Han Xue?

Zhang Yu: I’m not talking to you anymore. If you agree, you know my account. Mark it as consultancy fee, non-refundable. Once the money’s in, I’ll give you half first.

Zhang Yu: As for the other half, I’ll give it to you tomorrow morning.

In case someone regrets it and wants to take back the money, then she would really have done a futile job.
