Chapter 881: Chapter 882 Toxic Fatherly Love 14

Wu Hao was stunned when he learned from relatives that Zhang Yu and the others had actually rented out the house.

"Renting out the house, you sure they didn’t sell it?" Wu Hao felt that Li Cuifen, who was so attached to the past, would definitely not move out if there was any possibility.

"Sold?" Feng Min panicked immediately upon hearing that the small villa might be sold. "How could they sell it?"

"I was thinking, when Xiao Jian gets married later, we could nicely renovate the house into a wedding house. The transportation there is convenient, and the school district is good too." Feng Min had it all planned out.

But to think it was sold, "This is really squandering, already at such an age, not getting medical treatment or what."

"Such a waste of money." Feng Min looked at Wu Hao displeased, "Zhang Yu is also a fool, never thinking about the future."

"I’ll go and find out more." Wu Hao was also all sorts of annoyed, with Feng Min constantly nagging by his side, adding to his headache.

"Why are you arguing with me about this, I don’t want this either."

"Also, that person said the house was rented out, I thought it was sold. I’ll go find out more." Wu Hao still wanted to personally check out the situation.

"Hurry up." Feng Min was almost pushing Wu Hao out, wishing he could go and find out immediately.

The next day, while out running errands, Wu Hao took the chance to inquire about it and came back to the office all smiles.

"It’s rented out, and the rental is actually one hundred thousand." Wu Hao’s eyes widened thinking about that rent.

His current annual income exceeds this number, but that’s income after working hard for half a year, considering this is an era where the average income isn’t even two thousand.

To think that such a rental rate could be charged for that house, Wu Hao felt jealous.

Feng Min’s mouth dropped open, in disbelief, "You’re saying, just that one house, could get a hundred thousand?"

"Yes, it’s rented to a company." Wu Hao exhaled lightly, "After the old lady passes away, we can continue to rent out the house and possibly increase the rent."

Well, at least now we know the rent can be this high, "When the time comes for the son to study abroad, we don’t need to worry about the money."

Everyone around is sending their kids abroad, Wu Hao and his wife also wanted to, but just didn’t have enough money. Is money still a problem now?

Feng Min previously thought that after getting the house, moving in after renovating it would make all her friends and colleagues envious.

Now, she agrees to rent out the house too, with even more attractive rental income, "We will switch to a bigger house to live in later."

"Our current house, we can leave it for Xiao Min." Feng Min, now with money in hand, is also willing to treat her daughter well.

Wu Hao nodded, "Sure." With money in hand, of course he wanted to treat his daughter well too.

As for Zhang Yu, who is also his daughter, Wu Hao didn’t even think of her.

What is Zhang Yu doing now? She is busy selecting a nanny for Li Cuifen.

Previously seeing that Li Cuifen could take a taxi on her own, he thought the old lady had completely come around, especially since their family got an extra hundred thousand in rental income each year, thinking that spending money on a nanny should be agreeable to her.

But unexpectedly, the old lady heard about hiring a nanny and disapproved thoroughly. "Money burning a hole in the pocket."

"My health isn’t great, but I can still work."

"No need for a nanny."

"I can still work."

No matter how much Zhang Yu tried to persuade, the old lady simply wouldn’t budge, insisting she could still work.

With no other option, Zhang Yu could only settle for second best, "Then we won’t hire a nanny, we’ll just hire a part-time cleaner to clean up."

"That way you also get some relief, otherwise I don’t have time to clean every day."

"Having the other person cook, clean, and do all those chores, you’ll feel more relaxed," Zhang Yu noted that this was something that couldn’t be compromised on.

Li Cuifen eventually agreed to Zhang Yu’s proposal, as daily chores like mopping the floor had become too burdensome for her, and she couldn’t let Zhang Yu, who was still studying, worry about household matters.

After renting out the house, receiving the rent for the first quarter felt reassuring as the old lady’s health was manageable within controllable limits.

Being farther from Wu Hao and others, the old lady had an environment suitable for recuperation.

Zhang Yu felt that the first stage of the work was genuinely well completed.

"I have to report tomorrow," Zhang Yu stood by the window, sipping on tea, "Life is better now, though it’s somewhat competitive, but not overly so."

Even though tutoring had started to appear, at least high school seniors hadn’t started classes prematurely, and, perhaps some schools were already showing signs of this, the high school Zhang Yu attended did not yet show such tendencies.

"A new journey begins tomorrow." Browsing through the original host’s memories, well, tomorrow might also bring about a meeting with the host’s first love.

Of course, it’s also a person who pushed forward the host’s tragic life; such a person shouldn’t expect good outcomes.

Looking at the first love the original host had chosen, Zhang Yu could only remark that the genes were extraordinarily strong; selecting men who were ungrateful wolves, each more outrageous than the last.

Since it’s a doomed relationship, there’s no need to continue maintaining it.

Since that person claimed that the original host forced him into friendship and dating, suffering mental oppression and unhappiness throughout, it’s better to let go sooner.

Initially, the original host simply considered him an ordinary classmate, yet he persistently appeared before the host, caring comprehensively and considerately.

The naïve original host was utterly charmed by him.

Forget it, better not think about it anymore; after all, it’s just a sign now, and it’s easy to cut off.

The excuse used by that person before was tutoring, but now with better academic performance, she doesn’t need his help.

So that he doesn’t complain about her hindering his studies, preventing him from getting into a good university.

Such acts that could jeopardize someone’s future must not be done, after all, these matters are crucial in life and absolutely must not be done.

On the day of registration, Zhang Yu arrived in the classroom and, watching everyone chatting, could only marvel at their youthful vigor.

Even though the Task Taker is a student, it’s truly impossible to return to the mindset of the teenage years.

Wang Lei saw Zhang Yu, "What’s been going on with you these past few days? You haven’t been looking for me."

Wang Lei handed over some snacks casually and Zhang Yu took them, knowing she was the original host’s close friend, a very good friend.

She whispered in her ear, "My grandma has been unwell, she just had surgery."

"Oh, we moved," Zhang Yu added without clarifying whether the house was bought or rented, "to be closer to the hospital for treating my grandma."

Upon hearing about the surgery and staying close to the hospital, Wang Lei’s only thought made her eyes widen, "No way."

"How is grandma doing though?" Wang Lei knew her friend and Li Cuifen depended solely on each other, and with the old lady’s sickness, she couldn’t bear to think how devastated Zhang Yu must be feeling.

"Discovered fairly early, it’s the early stage of the middle phase, chemotherapy also requires attention to health, and neighbors at the old house weren’t very considerate in their remarks."

"Living near the hospital, if grandma is hospitalized, I can also visit her."

Wang Lei nodded, "Yes, let me know if you need any help."

"Sure," Zhang Yu knew the offer was sincere, "Oh, and I’ve been doing quite a bit of practice problems."

She dug out several workbooks from her bag, "I think this one is pretty good, you might want to try it."
