Chapter 1056: Chapter 1061: Mutual Business Flattery

Going to your future father-in-law’s house empty-handed and dressed in ragged clothes, don’t complain about being looked down upon, as who would want their daughter to suffer with a man without capability.

Driving a luxury car and filling the future father-in-law’s home with gifts, don’t say that people are materialistic, as any normal family in this world would want their daughter to have a good life.

So don’t talk about being a snob, it’s just human nature.

Oscar Bell suddenly lost his anger, now he just doubted the authenticity of Yang Yi’s words.

But out of self-respect, Oscar Bell didn’t want to change his attitude immediately.

"Young man, do you think I need you to give Petra something? A bank, haha, I have one myself, Petra is my only daughter, isn’t my bank ultimately hers?"

Yang Yi waved his hand: "That’s different, what’s yours is yours, what’s mine is mine. Loving a woman means giving her the best."

Oscar Bell’s face looked much better immediately.

Yang Yi said with emotion: "Mr. Roy, you are Petra’s father, I believe that in this world only you and your wife truly want the best for Petra, only you would never harm her, only you can give her all the love unconditionally, I understand this very well, but please believe me, I..."

Yang Yi suddenly felt guilty and could not continue.

Thus, Yang Yi waved his hand heavily and said: "What to say is actually useless, isn’t it? What’s important is to see how to act, Mr. Roy, I want you to see how I treat Petra!"

Oscar Bell sighed heavily, then he finally gave up his confrontational stance and leaned back relaxedly, saying with emotion: "As a father, I cannot let Petra get hurt, I’ll try my best to give her the best, to ensure her happiness for a lifetime, but..."

"But Petra is not wrong, forgive my candor, Mr. Roy, you are just imposing too much control over Petra, she has grown up, it’s time for you to let go, can anyone be completely unharmed? If Petra harms herself, can you stop her?"

Oscar Bell actually nodded.

Yang Yi said softly: "I don’t know what will happen in the future, but I think now is the most important, because we live in the present, Mr. Roy, please annul Petra’s engagement, give her a chance to choose freely, don’t you think the right to choose is also very important? Especially on such a major issue as marriage, is it really good to deprive Petra of her choice power?"

Oscar Bell pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Alright, you have convinced me."

Yang Yi heaved a sigh of relief, stood up, bowed deeply to Oscar Bell, and said sincerely: "Thank you!"

"She is my daughter!"

After speaking with authority, Oscar Bell smiled and said: "As someone your age, I have to admit, you are really outstanding; as a father, I need to learn more about you."

Yang Yi nodded and said: "Yes, I should. Well, how should I introduce myself? First of all, I’m a businessman, mainly in Europe and the United States. I’ve just acquired a private jet service company, and I’m planning to focus mainly on the United States, so after meeting Petra, I had this idea that is to acquire a commercial bank."

His tone became grand, Oscar Bell couldn’t help but feel doubtful again about this young man’s bragging, he considered himself good at evaluation, but for Yang Yi, he really couldn’t see through him.

"Oh, acquiring a bank is not easy."

"Yes, I have prepared a budget of three billion US dollars, plus some tricks, I should be able to succeed, uh, my initial accumulation of wealth was not very... you understand, I don’t want to hide this from you, but now I have successfully laundered it, I think that’s the most important thing."

Oscar Bell’s heart was complex, he smiled and said: "Oh, so what industry did you start with?"

"Arms trade, Mr. Roy, I walk on the edge of black and white."

Oscar Bell exhaled and said, "Legal arms trade?"

"Yes, of course legal, otherwise I couldn’t have come here."

Oscar Bell smiled and said: "This is easy to understand, actually most people’s wealth come from not so..., I mean tycoons, hrm, so you plan to invest in finance in the future?"

"Yes, I have many industrial companies at hand, mainly high-tech companies, but I want to try my hand in finance."

"Do you have a target?"

Yang Yi replied without hesitation: "Sorry, that’s a business secret."

Oscar Bell was not upset by Yang Yi’s secrecy. In his view, this is the proper attitude; if Yang Yi blurted out everything, then he would think Yang Yi was either bluffing or foolish.

The investigation would still continue, but so far, Oscar Bell’s feelings towards Yang Yi were complicated, not just simple dislike or rejection.

"So when do you plan to start operations?"

Yang Yi smiled and said: "Very soon, this is also a business secret, but... if you agree to annul Petra’s engagement with Carlson, then my acquisition plan will proceed immediately, it’s actually almost ready, I also want Petra to play a significant role in this business acquisition."

Oscar Bell nodded and said: "Is that so? Oh, this indeed an opportunity for practice, big acquisition opportunities are rare."

Yang Yi smiled and said: "Maybe at that time, I will need your advice, you are a legend in the financial world, it would be great if I could have your help."

"Don’t say that, you are so young yet you have achieved so much, you are the daunting new power."

"I am still too green compared to you."

"No, it’s good to have the drive of youth."

When Petra heard no arguing and couldn’t help but push the door and come in, she was worried that Yang Yi might beat her father, or vice versa.

But as soon as Petra entered, she saw the two men boastfully discussing business.

Seeing Petra pushing the door in, Oscar Bell smiled and then he waved at Petra.

Waiting for a dazed Petra to walk over to Oscar Bell, after a moment of thought, Oscar Bell held Petra’s hand and said affectionately, "My daughter has grown up."

"Hmm."

"You have grown up, maybe I really should let go, let you make your own choices, I will talk to Carlson about the cancellation of the engagement, you don’t have to say it yourself."

Petra looked surprised at her father, while Oscar Bell sighed and said: "I will learn to let go, I just hope you can find happiness."

"Dad!"

Watching the father and daughter embrace, Yang Yi knew his task was completed.
