Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 938 - 939 Toxic Fatherly Love 71

Wu Hao looked at the address in front of him and double-checked to make sure it was correct. He really hadn’t expected Zhang Yu to have her studio in this villa district.

He knew a bit about this place because a colleague had bought a villa here, and the price shot up afterwards.

Back then, Wu Hao thought his colleague was pretty lucky, and now it seems Zhang Yu’s luck isn’t bad either.

Zhang Yu was on the second floor taking a call, and she spotted Wu Hao standing below through the window glass.

"Quick action." It seems like Wu Jian is eager to make money; otherwise, he wouldn’t be so prompt.

"Poor mindset." In the past life, this guy didn’t have a good mindset for making money, and now if he’s short on cash, his mindset will only be worse.

"Just don’t know if Wu Hao is doing this for himself or for Wu Jian." Zhang Yu didn’t think Wu Hao would try to get an opportunity for Wu Jian.

Wu Hao mentally prepared himself, ready to step into the yard when he looked up and saw a woman on the second floor. On closer inspection, it was Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu waved at him. Damn, she actually saw him, and Wu Hao felt a bit embarrassed—it was really awkward.

Wu Hao quickly adjusted his state of mind and entered the villa.

The receptionist was dealing with some documents, and upon seeing Wu Hao, she asked, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

"Xia Xia, let him come up." Zhang Yu said as she came down.

Zhang Yu bypassed the reception and walked to the staircase.

"Follow me up." Zhang Yu leisurely walked upstairs, with Wu Hao obediently following behind her.

As Wu Hao climbed the stairs, he glanced around the first floor, finding the environment quite nice, as well as the decor and furniture.

Such a nice place being used for business—if he could live here, he would be very happy, but it’s a pity he probably won’t live in such a house in this lifetime.

Zhang Yu walked over to the bar area, "What do you want to drink?"

"I’ll have green tea." He glanced over the drinks on the bar, and was truly taken aback.

There were so many options to choose from, just from this alone, it was clear Zhang Yu was making money.

Soon, a cup of green tea was brewed and placed in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass. "Come, have a seat."

Wu Hao sat down awkwardly, looking around. "Did you buy it or rent it?"

"I bought it, three villas." Not hiding anything, Zhang Yu gestured to the two adjacent villas.

"One to live in myself, one as a dorm for employees." Even though this area has started developing, it was originally designated as a villa area for wealthy people, so the public transport like buses and subways aren’t really convenient.

Three villas? Wu Hao was shocked by the number, taking deep breaths, "You’ve really made something of yourself."

"I bought them when they were cheap. Back then, three villas didn’t even cost as much as one does now." Zhang Yu took a sip of plain water.

"Yesterday, Wu Jian told me you were just a meal provider." Wu Hao briefly explained how he found out about the identity.

Zhang Yu responded with an "Oh," "He probably also mentioned he wanted to intern here, and I didn’t agree."

"My relationship with him isn’t good, no need to share a roof."

"Besides, he’s probably hoping to become a content creator and might poach my staff."

The studio has been developing for more than a year, and everyone has pretty much adjusted to each other. There aren’t many staff because Zhang Yu has always insisted on keeping it small and efficient, not wanting to have too many people.

Getting something done requires gone through a lot of discussions and research by multiple departments, which is purely a waste of time.

"I have only a few people in my studio; if someone poaches them, what am I supposed to do?" Zhang Yu joked lightly.

"Of course, I’m not afraid of poaching. I can always retrain new ones, though it’s a bit of a hassle, but not impossible."

"But can Wu Jian really get things off the ground?" Zhang Yu wasn’t underestimating anyone; it’s just that man seemed like a good-for-nothing.

"By then, these people might not be able to come back to my side." Having spent significant time together, Zhang Yu still considered their well-being.

"Wu Jian is like you two, using people without hesitation but never remembering their contributions." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"You only feel that they should do this, that it’s their duty." Zhang Yu’s words were unequivocal.

"Rest assured, I won’t speak for him. I know even if I did, you wouldn’t agree."

Wu Hao smiled bitterly, "In your heart, I don’t exist as an old father."

Zhang Yu gave a light affirmative grunt, "Right."

"That’s why you didn’t let me know you got married and had kids." Wu Hao said angrily.

Seeing Wu Hao’s anger, Zhang Yu remained calm, "You’re angry because of this."

"I’ve told you long ago, I wouldn’t inform you about my marriage, it’s unnecessary."

"What difference does notifying you make? You know now, I’m married and have a son, so there you go." Zhang Yu didn’t care that Wu Hao was nearly livid with anger.

Seeing Zhang Yu’s calm demeanor, what else could Wu Hao do but take deep breaths repeatedly; being furious only hurt himself, Zhang Yu was heartless.

"Can I see the child?" Wu Hao looked at Zhang Yu with hope. "After all, I am the child’s grandfather."

"No." Zhang Yu answered decisively, "If we happen to meet, fine, but to deliberately let you see? Not happening."

"No photos of the child either." She directly blocked Wu Hao’s request for pictures.

Wu Hao knew Zhang Yu likely wouldn’t bring the child out for him to see, but it didn’t matter; couldn’t see the child, but at least there were photos, just seeing photos would be fine.

But to his surprise, not even photos were shown to him, making Wu Hao very angry, "You, you’re really too much, I’ve never met anyone as excessive as you."

"Compared to you, I am considered good. In a few years, you might become a grandpa. Wu Jian won’t go to college, so he might consider getting married."

Zhang Yu thought Wu Hao might as well expect Wu Jian to get married after graduating high school, "That would be your grandson, you can see as you wish."

"A descendant bearing your surname." Zhang Yu said sincerely.

A child with his surname, Wu Hao said bitterly, "Forget it, I’m worried I can’t afford to support this child."

"The girl Wu Jian likes spends money lavishly." Wu Hao knew Wu Jian liked a girl, and of course, checked a thing or two.

Really clueless until he checked it out, which gave him quite a scare, "The family situation is incredibly complex."

"The girl herself too." Sigh, Wu Hao thought of the girl Wu Jian insisted on liking, and it truly gave him a headache.

But there’s nothing he can do; it’s who he likes, and no amount of opposition helps.

Zhang Yu drank her tea, observing Wu Hao’s exasperated demeanor.

"If he insists on choosing that person, I have nothing to say." Wu Hao let out a long sigh.

"I’ve made up my mind; as for children, don’t expect them to be filial."

"By the way, you went to see the old guy and them, right? Just like you thought, they’re demanding money from us, or else they’ll find a supervisor."

Recalling those years of being suppressed and pressed for money by the old guy, Wu Hao truly got a headache.

"Luckily, they’re gone." Wu Hao took a sip of green tea and looked outside, "Sometimes I wonder if I had money, whether they wouldn’t have died so early."

Regarding this question, Zhang Yu really didn’t know, could Wu Hao make that much money, it was impossible.
