Capítulo 1596: Chapter 1597: The Girl with Three Failures 104
Zhang Yu arrived in Harbor City early, while Zhao Kang would co in a few days as he still had matters to handle.
Moreover, he hadn’t found a place yet. During the New Year’s holiday in Harbor City, he viewed apartnts for two days but wasn’t satisfied with any. They were either too expensive, inconveniently located, or lacked a good environnt.
As for the hotel-style apartnt Zhang Yu rented, Zhao Kang initially thought it was expensive since half of his monthly inco would go to the rent. After looking around and considering various extra costs, he realized it wasn’t much cheaper elsewhere. So, he decided to rent a hotel-style apartnt too.
However, there weren’t any available rooms in the sa place as Zhang Yu’s. The good news was that a one-bedroom would be available at the end of January, so Zhao Kang signed the lease agreent and had to arrive in Harbor City before it opened.
Zhang Yu felt fortunate that soone was still in City S. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have known about Cheng Jian and Jiang Lili, who not only rekindled their romance but went straight to getting married.
The mont Zhang Yu saw Cheng Jian, she could tell they had rekindled their romance. She thought they would just start dating again and perhaps move in together.
Unexpectedly, they got married the next day, which made Zhang Yu pause, “It takes courage to get married, and you should seize the mont while still feeling heated about it.”
“Even if you sober up and want a divorce later, it’s not an easy thing.” That’s all Zhang Yu could say.
Mike thought about it and agreed with Zhang Yu’s idea, “Yes, it really takes courage to marry, and if you think too much about it, you might not even consider marrying.”
In Mike’s life plan, marriage was never part of it, “If I were to marry, I’d have to consider many things and sign various agreents. Would the other party agree?”
“Even with a prenuptial agreent, it’s not completely worry-free. Half of the earnings during the marriage would have to be shared.”
“After a divorce, if her inco is low, I’d have to pay alimony. Maybe she wouldn’t remarry and just cohabit with soone else. I’d end up being the fool.”
Mike recalled a forr colleague who, in his eyes, was a real fool, supporting not only his ex-wife but her boyfriend too.
Mike remarked, “I’d rather not be such a fool.”
Ye Zhuo ca over to find the two of them and overheard their conversation, looking exasperated, “What are you two discussing? Neither of you has a partner yet you’re worrying about divorce.”
“It’s not that I look down on you, but you should solve your own lifelong matters first,” Ye Zhuo said disdainfully, “Spouting nonsense all day, what fun is that?”
Zhang Yu claid it wasn’t about her, “I’ve never thought about getting married.” After partaking in so many missions, she didn’t know how many tis she’d married, divorced, or even been widowed.
She just wanted to say, “n hold back from making money.”
“I want to work hard to make money. Where’s the comparison between a man and money?” Zhang Yu declared with authority.
Mike gave Zhang Yu a thumbs up, “You’re right, but if you aren’t having kids, what’s the point of having them.”
“I’m earning not to have children, but to let my parents and myself live a good life.”
“Your mom definitely wouldn’t agree.” Mike had t Mrs. Zhang during a move. She was an open-minded mother but still had her principles.
For instance, she no longer insisted Zhang Yu had to marry, but having children was a must.
“Yes, that’s the compromise with my parents. I might not get married, but I must have kids.”
“I rember ntioning that I’d go abroad to have one.” Zhang Yu distinctly recalled discussing this with them.
Mike thought back, “Yeah, it ca up, but I thought you were just talking.”
“With your assets, I didn’t think you wouldn’t marry. It turned out it was true.” Mike genuinely thought Zhang Yu was casually ntioning it, just as he had casually listened.
Who knew Zhang Yu wasn’t just making idle talk, but was genuinely considering it.
“Have you decided what kind of father the child would have?” Mike volunteered, “Honestly, let tell you, my genes are good.”
“I’m genuinely curious about what a child between you and Ye Zhuo would be like, if they’d be a genius or average.” Mike was genuinely curious.
Zhang Yu was stunned by Mike’s words. If it were just the two of them, he could say whatever.
But now with Ye Zhuo right beside them, saying this in front of him, Zhang Yu didn’t dare look at Ye Zhuo’s expression, imagining it must be quite unpleasant.
Ye Zhuo was also stunned by Mike’s words. As their boss approached, shouldn’t they have ended the topic?
Instead, the topic went on uncontrollably. Oh dear, even Ye Zhuo was a bit curious about Mike’s inquiries.
Just that, he wouldn’t acknowledge anything genius or diocre. They were all smart; the child should be better, without any surprises.
Yes, no unexpected issues at all, “I think it’s worth a try.”
Ah, Zhang Yu thought Ye Zhuo would reprimand Mike, who knew he’d say sothing like this, making her almost faint.
Even though only the three of them were present, didn’t she have any self-respect? “I, I haven’t decided yet.”
To say she wasn’t tempted would be a lie, especially since Ye Zhuo’s genes were excellent. Without issues, the child surely wouldn’t be bad.
No, no matter the temptation, she couldn’t admit it in front of her boss, “I haven’t considered it yet.”
Right, right, he hadn’t thought about it yet, no need to rush.
“When the ti cos, let know. Don’t feel embarrassed. We can sign an agreent.” Ye Zhuo understood Zhang Yu’s shyness.
“I’d just be a biological father, and we’d sign an agreent that this child and I would have no ties. I wouldn’t provide any help.”
“My assets won’t be linked to this child.” Soone Ye Zhuo knew had done this, and they got on well, so he took precautions to avoid disputes.
Initially, Mike found it odd why Ye Zhuo spoke so articulately, not in a deceptive way. Had it not been for knowing Ye Zhuo was busy recently, with the topic arising suddenly, he would’ve thought Ye Zhuo consulted on it.
“Alright, let’s get to work.” Business to handle, Ye Zhuo indicated work was here.
Upon hearing about work, Mike was delighted. Although they were now financially stable and their investnts were succeeding, eliminating worries they might not sustain the investnt bank.
Still, being goal-oriented, he hopes the investnt bank thrives, allowing China Investnt folks to see how well they’re doing outside their comfort zone.
Watching Mike rush to his office, Ye Zhuo quietly told Zhang Yu beside him, “I ant everything I said.”
