Zhang Yu wouldn’t fixate on Cheng Jian, she ca here to make money, and right now making money is the most important thing. Anything that hinders her from making money is a big bad guy.
Quickly finalizing the preliminary work, and collecting the necessary information, Zhang Yu was ready to leave.
Cheng Jian knew that Zhang Yu and her team were finishing up their work and would be leaving soon, which made him breathe a sigh of relief as well.
Luckily, the rest of the people also breathed long sighs of relief, as working with Zhang Yu and her team was indeed quite stressful.
"Is the efficiency of investnt banks always this high?" a young guy asked Cheng Jian.
A leader who knew Cheng Jian’s background also knew that Zhang Yu used to work at China Investnt. "You must have been colleagues, right?"
Everyone was surprised to find out that Zhang Yu and Cheng Jian were colleagues; it was quite a shock.
Since soone ntioned it, Cheng Jian couldn’t deny it and responded with a nod, "Yes, but we weren’t on the sa team. She was with President Ye’s team."
"President Ye?" soone exclaid.
Cheng Jian nodded, "That’s her current boss. Their team is quite impressive."
"The team I’m in isn’t that impressive." Cheng Jian didn’t want to say much more.
His colleagues noticed he didn’t want to talk much, and if they were in his shoes, they wouldn’t want to either. They both went to the sa university and worked at China Investnt.
The result was one having a flourishing career while the other worked hard for many years without even buying a house.
"I heard Zhang Yu lives in a thousand-square-foot mansion halfway up Ban Shan in Harbor City."
"You can see Victoria Harbor from indoors."
"I heard she’s planning to look at a bigger house, seems like the family needs more space."
Looking at a bigger house? Family needs more space?
Everyone’s first reaction was, "Is she getting married?" Otherwise, why need space for more family mbers?
Is Zhang Yu getting married? Cheng Jian was a bit taken aback when he heard this, feeling slightly disheartened.
After thinking for a bit, he sighed. With Zhang Yu’s excellent conditions, it’s not surprising for her to get married.
"Who would she marry?" Everyone was deeply curious.
"The person must have equally good conditions. I heard even wealthy young heirs from Harbor City are pursuing her."
"Don’t you all think she and President Ye are a perfect match?"
Cheng Jian happened to hear soone say this. A perfect match? He had ntioned it while at China Investnt, but Jiang Lili said Ye Zhuo could never choose Zhang Yu, as the Ye Family behind him wouldn’t agree.
Looking back now, who would dare say Zhang Yu isn’t a match for Ye Zhuo? Zhang Yu has proven with her capabilities that even a girl from an ordinary background can, through her efforts, enter the upper echelon.
While everyone was discussing who Zhang Yu might fancy or marry, Zhang Yu was already on her way back to Harbor City.
Throughout the journey, her phone was constantly ringing, mostly calls from her parents. Today was the day Zhang Yu arranged with the builder to receive her house, but sothing urgent ca up, requiring a last-minute business trip.
Fortunately, with her parents around, the property handover wouldn’t have to be postponed.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang knew Zhang Yu was busy with work and made a lot of money, appearing on financial news from ti to ti, indicating the company’s decent progress.
However, they were amazed that while a villa in their hotown hadn’t been bought yet, a villa halfway up Ban Shan in Harbor City had already been constructed.
Indeed, a year ago, Zhang Yu caught a ride on Ye Zhuo’s coattails and, along with Mike, bought a piece of land halfway up Ban Shan; the plots owned by the three families are connected.
Once they had the land, Zhang Yu imdiately went through the bidding process and started arranging construction, not only for living comfortably but also as a preparation for having a child.
Yes, recently, Zhang Yu had made so adjustnts, resting more and increasing her exercise, all in preparation for having a child.
Previously, she had considered using high-tech thods to have a painless childbirth, but her parents were wholeheartedly against it, saying a child not carried by her would feel different.
Considering her parents’ strong opposition, Zhang Yu thought childbirth wasn’t particularly difficult for her; her only qualm was the inconvenience of being pregnant.
After passing on her tasks, she chatted briefly with Mike and then took her parents to Arica.
The family of three flew to Arica, but the news about the villa halfway up Ban Shan in Harbor City had already spread.
Uncle Zhang and his family only knew bits about Zhang Yu’s family through the news over the years. Since Zhang Laoer and his wife moved to Harbor City, they seldom returned, usually only back ho for Qingming Festival and in a hurry.
Whenever they ca back, they might not even contact their siblings, leaving it to chance whether they t or not.
If a family wedding or funeral occurred, they would send money but not attend, notifying them with a call about the transaction.
Though they bought a large house, they would rather leave it empty than lend it to family, showing a lack of warmth.
Even having a relative thriving in Harbor City didn’t relate to them in any way.
This ti, Uncle Zhang learned from online news that Zhang Yu had bought land for a villa, which infuriated them.
From purchasing land to building the house, it would take at least a year, but during this ti, Zhang Laoer’s family never ntioned it.
Zhang Xiaogu resentfully remarked, "Second brother’s family is really doing well now, completely looking down on us poor relatives."
Everyone agreed, "Hmph, I don’t see Second Brother showing off when Zhang Yu is already in her thirties and hasn’t even married."
"So what if she earns a lot of money?" Young Uncle Zhang was frustrated, clearly acknowledging their wealth but assuming they’re stingy.
Without marriage or kids, everyone’s eyes lit up, "Indeed, Zhang Yu doesn’t have children."
Eldest Aunt Zhang sneered, "Think about it, such a strong-headed girl. She won’t settle for poor n, and wealthy n won’t choose her. Wouldn’t they prefer soone gentle and obedient?"
Everyone nodded in agreent, "Exactly, if I were wealthy, why would I put up with her attitude?"
"Exactly, exactly." Honestly, they didn’t want Zhang Yu to marry or have children.
Only by not marrying or having children would there be room to maneuver.
Though they hoped that their own children might call Zhang Yu "Mom" in the future, if their children beca successful, they might care for their biological parents.
Their assumption was good, but they forgot one thing; they rarely interact with Zhang Yu’s family, so they don’t really know her thoughts.
Let alone realizing Zhang Yu was already in Arica preparing for pregnancy. If they knew, they’d be furious.
While Zhang Yu was nurturing her pregnancy abroad, Cheng Jian prepared for his second reception of Zhang Yu but found the contact person had changed, which surprised him, not understanding the personnel change.
Seeing his leadership didn’t find it strange, he said nothing. Later, seeking information from the investnt banking side, he learned that she went to Arica for further studies.
