Chapter 2099: Chapter 2100: The Original Spouse Who Leaves with Nothing 19

Zhang Qiang looked at the Peninsula Hotel in front of him, incredulous as he turned to Zhang Yu, "Is this the room you booked?"

"Yeah, didn’t I tell you? I said I booked a hotel with a view of Victoria Harbor."

"And starting from here, it’s really convenient."

"Dad, rest assured, your daughter has money now."

"Besides, we’re here to check out schools for Xiao Xuan. There are quite a few prestigious schools around Harbor City, which makes going out convenient too. It would be exhausting to rush here from somewhere else." Zhang Yu quickly pointed out the advantages of staying here.

When it came to topics related to his precious grandson, Zhao Qiang had no objections, "As long as you’re sure."

"Dad, don’t worry. I’ve been making money on the stock market these past couple of days." In the past, she didn’t have time to monitor it and only held long-term stocks. Although that was also profitable, occasionally doing some swing trading was nice too.

These past few days, she researched the stock market at night, and during work, she watched the main index, which also made her quite a bit of money. "Your daughter has made over a hundred thousand these days."

"Don’t worry." Zhang Yu opened the stock app on her phone to show Zhang Qiang.

Zhang Qiang looked at his daughter’s trades, "Not bad."

"Yeah, in the past, I was too busy doing his work. Now that I don’t have to deal with him, I find there are so many things I can do, and I can earn quite a bit of money too." Zhang Yu felt increasingly that it wasn’t worth it for the original self.

Zhang Qiang took the phone to check Zhang Yu’s trades, "Not bad, really good." Then he handed the phone back to Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu smiled, "Exactly, that’s why men really held me back from making money."

"I’ve been researching the stock market here in Harbor City these past few days. Next time I come, I’ll open an account." She’s confident about her new entrepreneurial venture.

Zhang Qiang patted Zhang Yu on the shoulder, "No worries, you’ve got us behind you."

This weekend was really joyous for Zhang Yu’s family of four, for example, Lin Zixuan chose several schools he fancied. Being the weekend, the schools were empty.

"I’ll check things out next week when I’m here." Like what documents are needed, whether there are entrance exams, etc. There was still a lot to prepare.

"Anyway, once Xiao Xuan’s school is settled, we’ll rent a house." Initially, Zhang Yu thought of booking a house first, but later realized that even though the school her son liked was nearby, there was still some distance.

They’re here for their child’s education, so they should choose a house near the school to make it convenient for him to commute.

As for herself, it’s just a year’s time for further studies, and it’s especially easier for a college student than a high school student.

In a great mood, the four of them strolled, ate, and drank around Harbor City. Zhang Yu initially thought that in a few months they would be moving to Harbor City anyway, so there was no need for a shopping spree—coming and going lightly, isn’t that nice?

"Many friends know I’m in Harbor City and have asked me to bring things for them. Should I say, sorry, my daughter said she doesn’t want to?" The old lady directly shot down Zhang Yu’s idea.

Well, with the old lady saying so, what could she do? Of course, she had to agree and follow the old lady around, managing the shopping bags.

It’s not that she didn’t want to spend money, but the old lady said, "I’m just bringing these for them, and they should pay for them."

Alright, with the old lady saying this, what else could Zhang Yu do but promptly listen?

With money in hand, seeing nice clothes, and her distaste for the clothes of the original owner, how could she pass up such a good opportunity?

Of course, she couldn’t pass it up. Thinking of this, Zhang Yu went shopping herself too, not forgetting to buy clothes for her son. The young man was reaching adolescence, so he should also dress nicely.

And so, by the time they left, they ended up with three carry-on suitcases and four checked-in large boxes.

After getting off the plane, Zhang Yu realized a big problem: they brought the luggage here, but there was no way to take it back.

"Forget it, I’ll take a taxi." Zhang Qiang glanced at Zhang Yu’s car, realizing it couldn’t possibly fit several large boxes.

In the end, Zhang Yu’s car followed behind the taxi, settling the luggage for the elderly couple, then drove overnight to drop Lin Zixuan at school. Previously, she would leave immediately after dropping him off, but this time, she went in to see the teacher.

The teacher was initially curious about why Zhang Yu sought her out but was stunned upon hearing Zhang Yu’s request to transfer schools.

"Lin Zixuan is planning to study in Harbor City?" The teacher was taken aback.

Zhang Yu hadn’t meant to come but heard Lin Zixuan mention that a few classmates also transferred to study in Harbor City, so she thought to inquire at the school.

Zhang Yu nodded, "I plan to further my studies in Harbor City and aim to work and live there in the future."

"So, I want to take Zixuan to study abroad." Zhang Yu explained her reason for the transfer, "We visited some schools over the weekend."

Upon hearing this, the teacher genuinely felt it was a pity, "Lin Zixuan has excellent grades and would certainly get into a good university if he stays."

"I know, but there are issues at home now." Zhang Yu was quite helpless, "His father and I got a divorce."

The teacher responded with an understanding nod, "I understand, I’ll look into it."

After thanking the teacher, Zhang Yu drove back home, only to find Lin Yu by the front door, rolling her eyes, "What’s up?"

"Aren’t you with your girlfriend?" Isn’t Han Xue discharged from the hospital already? Shouldn’t he be with her now?

"I just wanted to tell you, the child is now in middle school. Although it’s not high school, it’s still an important phase. He needs to study well to get into a good high school and, eventually, a good university."

"Although my future is quite promising, as you know, Han Xue doesn’t want anything to do with you."

"There’s not much I can do, so don’t expect anything from me." Lin Yu warned Zhang Yu again, "Plus, as I see it, the kid doesn’t have any respect for me as his father."

"If you want me to help out in the future, you need to teach the kid to respect me." Lin Yu felt the lack of respect from his son was all because Zhang Yu was instigating him behind the scenes.

"You just take care of yourself. Don’t worry, I will take good care of my son."

"Also, I’ll be going out for further studies and will take the child to study as well."

"So don’t talk about helping the child in the future."

"After all, you know about my capabilities. Without you as a burden, I can still make money."

"Forget it, whatever I say, in your eyes, I’m just not as good as you."

"But think about the plans I made before. Even the toughest clients had no objections."

As soon as Zhang Yu finished, Lin Yu’s face turned ghostly pale. He didn’t want to admit it, but Zhang Yu’s capabilities were truly impressive.

"By the way, if there are any plans you can’t handle in the future, you can give them to me."

"As long as the price is right."

"I don’t even need to take on much. Just two custom orders from you a year starting at a million."

"You say I won’t live well off with just that?"
