Chapter 2117: Chapter 2118: The Original Spouse Who Left with Nothing 37

Zhang Yu let Lin Zixuan go upstairs, "Go ahead and speak."

"Talk about the important stuff." It’s better to directly cut to the crucial content than to hem and haw.

"I sent you a message, why didn’t you reply?" Lin Yu knew Zhang Yu didn’t want him to know her exact address, fine, he’d look for another chance in the future.

"When did you send it? I didn’t see your message on Friday." Zhang Yu was sure she hadn’t seen any message from Lin Yu before she rested on Friday night.

"Yesterday afternoon." Lin Yu said irritably.

Yesterday afternoon, Zhang Yu responded, "I’ve been rushing your order, haven’t rested well for days, my body is exhausted and needs recovery."

"Besides, I’m just someone taking orders, I can’t always respond instantly, I don’t work overtime on weekends." Zhang Yu reiterated.

Fine, no overtime on weekends, Lin Yu quickly caught that, "Are you saying you want overtime pay immediately?"

Lin Yu was at a loss, she clearly wasn’t like this before, how come after the divorce, she became so money-oriented, "You weren’t like this before."

Lin Yu’s expression was as if he didn’t recognize Zhang Yu, and coupled with his sigh, he looked like he had been hit hard.

Speechless, really speechless, "Before? Yes, before I never thought the college-era Lin Yu would turn into someone who betrays marriage countless times."

"The person betraying marriage doesn’t feel they’re wrong at all, rather they scheme against me, wanting me to leave empty-handed." Zhang Yu snorted coldly, "If I hadn’t been a bit more forceful, if not for you needing a promotion at the time."

"You wouldn’t be cozying up to the Han family on one hand while trying to drain me dry on the other."

"So, I helped you, I’ve already been quite good, who says I don’t work now and need some money."

"With these recent collaborations, I’ve made over ten years’ worth of salary, I’m quite satisfied."

"I know, you have a lot of complaints about me, I charge high prices and have many demands, you’re unlikely to seek me out again in the future."

"But it doesn’t matter, at least with this money, I can live well."

"Don’t suggest that if we cooperate well this time, we’ll be able to collaborate more in the future." Zhang Yu knew how Lin Yu would try to cajole her into listening obediently.

"This is my attitude, if we’re going to cooperate, this is the attitude; after all, every collaboration, I treat as if we won’t cooperate again." Zhang Yu was very straightforward.

"If you successfully land this big order, your status in the Han family should increase quite a bit, right?"

"If all goes smoothly, I think you’re likely to face Han Family directly."

"Lin Yu, do you think you can smoothly become the decision-maker among the Han Family members?"

"Alright, I’ve said what I needed to, I’m heading up." Tomorrow is Monday, and there’s class, and homework to do, plus two reports she needs to write.

Sigh, it’s just been a few weeks since classes started, and already don’t know how many reports have been done, working isn’t easy, studying isn’t easy, even wanting to lay flat isn’t an easy thing.

Lin Yu originally wanted to give Zhang Yu a good lesson, let her know he was the patron, even if she looked down on him inwardly, still she couldn’t reject money; instead, Zhang Yu became more assertive, ready to not cooperate in the future. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Lin Yu just felt stifled, as a client, it’s stifling; thinking being the principal party this time should be comfortable, instead still a stifled principal party.

"Alright, I’m heading up." Zhang Yu looked at Lin Yu’s stifled expression, her mood soared, hum, trying to PUA her, he didn’t think who she was.

Lin Yu suddenly grabbed Zhang Yu, without making promises that she would be obedient and not disappear, at the very least he should know why she felt the data was wrong, there’s definitely a problem here.

For this? Zhang Yu was utterly speechless, rolling her eyes few times, "Are you thinking I’ll find there’s a problem with this data, that someone is giving me advice behind the scenes, and then digging a pit for you?"

Lin Yu indeed thought this, but couldn’t admit; having already exploded once, he dared not to think how Zhang Yu would react to knowing he doubted her.

"I would never, I’m just wondering how you know this data is wrong." Lin Yu was quite curious.

No choice, some people are just foolish like this, "A few years ago, you took over a unit." Zhang Yu mentioned the company’s name.

Ah, although it’s been quite some time, Lin Yu roughly had the concept in his mind, just didn’t know the specifics, since Zhang Yu had drafted the plan, he mostly participated in offsite activities.

Now asked whether he remembered the data, how could he remember, his memory was quite good but surely couldn’t retain data that might not be useful again.

"Their main scope is quite similar, so in certain data, they should be similar."

"I also checked literature and other sources, oh, and of course, statements made during interviews by their CEO and engineers in public occasions."

"Then after some reasoning, I realized the data was problematic."

"However, this time it’s a leading enterprise, perhaps they’ve made improvements, maybe they have new technology, after all, new technologies emerge incessantly, so I just asked you to inquire about it."

"If the data is correct, that’s the best outcome."

"If the data has problems, you can prepare early."

"Otherwise, if you discover issues onsite, I truly worry about what you’ll do then."

"Had I known you’d suspect, I wouldn’t have spoken unnecessarily."

"Back then, you negotiated the project, I think your computer should have the original materials." Saying this, she turned and left.

Faced with this person’s face, Zhang Yu’s mood didn’t improve, might as well go up and work on the report.

Lin Yu didn’t reach for Zhang Yu this time, though he had numerous questions, knowing full well he should never reach out, otherwise there’d certainly be trouble.

After getting the desired result, Lin Yu hurried back.

Originally thought Han Xue at home might be impatient, she had called several times asking if he saw Zhang Yu.

But when he got back, he found apart from a nanny, there was nobody else.

The nanny told him she’d left shortly after he did, having received a call she hurriedly left, probably out shopping or drinking and chatting.

Since things stabilized, Han Xue had started drinking again, even went to the bar a few days ago; Lin Yu merely advised her briefly, yet certain someone wasn’t listening, what could he do.

If it’s possible, he actually hopes Han Xue’s baby wouldn’t have the chance to be born, just he can’t take action.

And things unfolded precisely as he expected, Han Xue indeed couldn’t persist for long.
