72: How do you express gratitude? By calling him "Dad"?

As Party A to the Wang Group, Dami Technology Company consistently brings in tens of billions in annual revenue.

What concept is tens of billions?

But there are women everywhere.

Offending Zhang Yu because of this would be a huge mistake.

If this matter were to get out,

people would laugh their teeth off.

They would say the Wang family couldn't distinguish between what's important and what's not, ruining their lifelong reputation over a woman.

Even someone who only graduated from a vocational high school would know what's more important in such a situation.

How could Wang Xiaocong not understand?

"Dad, I truly like Lu Hanxiao! For her, I can give up anything!"

Wang Xiaocong was still insistent.

"If you keep acting crazy, you won't be my son anymore!" Father Wang roared.

Then he instructed his subordinates to prepare to collect all the betrothal gifts.

He suddenly thought something was amiss.

And told his subordinates to stop again.

He quickly said to Mr. Zhang, "Mr. Zhang, these betrothal gifts won't be needed. But since I had the good fortune to meet you here today, please accept these as a gift from me to show my respect! I hope for your continued support in the future!"

What?

The two families present were shocked once again.

These betrothal gifts were valuable; he just gave them away?

However, doing so

did indeed make Zhang Yu quite satisfied.

"Since Mr. Wang is so sincere," he smiled, "then I will temporarily accept this gift."

"However, I don't have relevant business for this 2 billion commercial contract, so I'll transfer it under Lu Hanxiao's name!"

Actually, he could have registered a company and taken on this business himself.

The profit would have been at least several hundred million.

However, for now, it was better to simply do a favor.

"Lu Hanxiao, why are you still standing there stunned? Hurry and thank Mr. Zhang!"

Mother Lu's mouth was wide open.

If the Lu family wanted to secure this contract in the business world, they would have to drink dozens of times and send millions in gifts to get it.

Yet, Zhang Yu obtained it with a casual remark.

And then, just as casually, transferred it to Lu Hanxiao!

Where did her daughter find such an extraordinary man!

Lu Hanxiao looked at Zhang Yu.

Inwardly, she was also in a state of immense shock.

What should she do?

A 2 billion contract, just like that, transferred to her?

How could she ever repay such a huge favor?

Just thinking about it made her feel overwhelmed.

Even if she sold herself and worked like an ox or a horse, she couldn't repay it.

Her monthly salary was 20,000, and with bonuses, it was only 300,000 a year.

It wasn't even a fraction of the amount.

Although the Lu family was wealthy, she didn't want to be too involved with her family.

"Zhang Yu, this grand gift is too valuable," Lu Hanxiao said, "I dare not accept it."

"Then how about this," Father Wang suggested, "let's open a company in the names of Mr. Zhang and Miss Lu. After this business is completed, it can either be dissolved or continue operating!"

"Mr. Wang's suggestion is good," Zhang Yu smiled, "Then let's register a company."

This way, Lu Hanxiao would also have her own enterprise, no longer needing to rely on her family's approval, and gaining more leverage.

He never expected that pretending to be a boyfriend would lead to such unexpected gains.

He suggested having more such activities in the future.

"Alright, Mr. Zhang, if there's nothing else, shall we leave first?"

Father Wang asked for permission.

"Dad..."

Wang Xiaocong called out.

He was unwilling; he had originally thought today would definitely succeed.

Everything was ready, even his parents had personally appeared.

But then Zhang Yu showed up.

And his status was even higher than his own father's.

Who wouldn't be devastated by that?

"Don't say another word," Father Wang warned, "If you do, I'll freeze all your cards!"

If he hadn't stopped him in time, who knows what outrageous things he might have said.

As soon as the topic of freezing his cards came up, Wang Xiaocong immediately dared not say anything more.

No matter how unwilling he was, he could only tuck his tail between his legs and slink away from the Lu family.

The previously noisy living room

had now quieted down.

The betrothal gifts brought by the Wang family had been transformed into personal gifts of respect for Zhang Yu.

They also remained at the scene.

"Um, Mr. Zhang, I'll go pour you a cup of tea!"

Mother Lu didn't know how to address the young Zhang Yu.

Calling him 'Xiao Zhang' felt inappropriate, and 'Mr. Zhang' felt a bit hard to say.

So, calling him 'Mr.' was the safest option.

Actually, when Zhang Yu first came in, Mother Lu had a good first impression of him.

He hadn't said anything excessive either.

But the outcome, that he had such a status, was completely unexpected by her.

She would have to properly digest what happened today.

"Thank you, Auntie, no need for tea."

Zhang Yu looked at Lu Hanxiao's mother and smiled, "It's getting late, I should head back."

Then he said to Lu Hanxiao, "Let's go."

Lu Hanxiao glanced at her parents and said, "Mom, I have to go, I have work tomorrow."

This time, Lu Zhenhua didn't say anything.

"It's dark on the road, so be careful!"

Mother Lu knew that a grown daughter was no longer under her mother's control.

She could only follow them out of the living room and into the courtyard.

Watching her daughter's retreating figure, her nose tingled, and she felt like crying.

"Hanxiao, are you eating well every day? Do you want me to bring you meals daily?"

"No need, Mom," Lu Hanxiao waved, "You take good care of yourself!"

Saying that,

the two of them got into the car.

After seeing the car disappear, Mother Lu returned inside and, seeing Lu Zhenhua, immediately flared up.

"Why aren't you saying anything? You insisted on finding a match for our daughter, aren't you embarrassed now?"

Lu Zhenhua knew he was in the wrong, so he just played dumb.

But in his heart, he truly couldn't understand.

Zhang Yu was so young, barely just graduated from college.

How did he become a Major Shareholder of Dami Technology Company?

He had no connection with CEO Ok, did he? CEO Ok was over 50; Zhang Yu wasn't even born when he started his venture.

After thinking for a long time, his head was throbbing.

He could only sigh and say nothing more.

Moreover,

if his daughter ended up with Zhang Yu, it would indeed be much better than with the Wang family.

Firstly, Zhang Yu's financial power was above the Wang family's.

And he was tall and handsome, much more pleasing to the eye than Wang Xiaocong.

He used the 2 billion commercial contract to open a company, and even added Lu Hanxiao's name.

He was also supporting her.

Declaring that he was her strongest backing.

He was her biological father.

But Zhang Yu's actions were more like a true father... "So, are you satisfied with today's outcome?"

On the way back,

Zhang Yu asked with a smile.

"You're annoying. If you had this status, why didn't you say so earlier?" Lu Hanxiao complained slightly.

She had been really worried that the Wang family would use their power to force her into marriage.

No wonder Zhang Yu wasn't worried at all; it seemed he had a trump card.

"I've helped you so much, think about how you're going to thank me."

Zhang Yu raised an eyebrow.

How to thank him?

Lu Hanxiao was truly stumped by the question.

With his high status, any form of gratitude she could offer would be insignificant.

In her heart, a sense of humility even arose.

Willing to be a small blade of grass under the sunlight.

"Since you're unwilling to call your own father 'Dad' at home, how about you call me?"

Zhang Yu mischievously smiled.
