My stepmother forced me to donate bone marrow, so I retaliated by slapping my scumbag father in the

Meanwhile, at Yu Yehua's home.

The aroma of tea slowly spread.

In the living room, Yu Yehua personally took out the jar of aged tea that he had treasured for many years and poured a cup for Shen Ze.

"Try it."

Yu Yehua smiled and said, "I usually can't bear to take out this tea, you're lucky to have it today."

Shen Ze accepted it with both hands: "Thank you, Uncle Yu."

Yu Yehua was increasingly satisfied with his steady movements and proper attitude.

He had seen too many young people before.

Some people come from wealthy families and are arrogant.

Some people are good at sweet-talking and flattering, but deep down they are very superficial.

Some so-called young talents can't help but show off their resumes and connections as soon as they sit down.

Shen Ze was different. He sat there, neither interrupting nor trying to show off, and neither humble nor arrogant.

Ironically, the more this was the case, the more reassured Yu Yehua felt.

Yu Binglan sat beside him and couldn't help but smile when she saw her father's barely concealed satisfaction.

Yu Yehua took a sip of tea: "Xiao Shen, let's not talk about being late today."

"Men working outside sometimes inevitably encounter unexpected situations."

"I'll just ask you one question: are you serious about Binglan?"

Shen Ze put down his teacup, looked at Yu Binglan, and then at Yu Yehua: "Be serious."

The two words were simple, yet there was no hesitation whatsoever.

Yu Binglan's cheeks flushed slightly. She lowered her head, picked up her teacup, and covered her mouth.

Yu Yehua witnessed this scene and understood the situation perfectly.

My daughter is truly hopelessly in love.

He chuckled and said, "Okay, with you saying that, I'm half relieved."

"And the other half?" Yu Binglan asked.

Yu Yehua snorted: "Let's see how he behaves in the future."

Shen Ze nodded: "Of course."

After finishing their tea, Yu Yehua suddenly suggested, "If you're free this afternoon, how about we play a couple of rounds?"

"Golf?"

"Yeah," Yu Yehua laughed, "It's relaxing to chat while playing ball."

Shen Ze glanced at the time, then looked towards the restaurant: "Uncle Yu, let's play ball another day."

"This is my first visit, so we can't just have tea."

"We haven't officially started eating yet, I'll go to the kitchen and cook two dishes."

Yu Yehua was taken aback: "You can cook?"

Yu Binglan immediately chimed in, "He's a great cook."

Her tone was so proud that she didn't even realize it herself.

Looking at his daughter, Yu Yehua couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, then I'll try my future son-in-law's cooking today."

Shen Ze got up and went into the kitchen, and Yu Binglan followed him in to help.

As soon as the kitchen door closed, Shen Ze suddenly reached out and gently hugged her from behind.

Yu Binglan froze, quickly turning around and lowering her voice, "What are you doing? My dad's still outside!"

Shen Ze leaned close to her ear and whispered, "You kept looking at me in the living room just now."

Yu Binglan's ears turned red instantly: "Who was looking at you?"

"Mr. Yu won't admit it?"

"Come on."

She hurriedly pushed him away and turned to wash the vegetables, saying, "Behave yourself, don't let my dad see you."

Shen Ze smiled and stopped teasing her.

In the living room, Yu Yehua saw his daughter blushing through the half-open kitchen glass door, and he understood immediately.

His daughter, who was usually incredibly calm, could no longer hide her true feelings from Shen Ze.

Before long, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen.

Shen Ze cooks very quickly.

A dish of grouper with scallion oil, the fish meat is so tender it almost falls apart.

A black pepper beef tenderloin, cooked to perfection.

I stir-fried two more home-style dishes and then seasoned the original broth again.

When the food was served, Yu Yehua's expression changed after just one sniff.

"This tastes good."

He picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth. After chewing it a couple of times, his eyes lit up.

"good!"

Yu Yehua couldn't help but pick up another bite with his chopsticks: "The fish is cooked to perfection, the scallion oil is fragrant, but it doesn't overpower the freshness of the fish."

"The beef tenderloin is so tender. Your cooking skills are just as good as those of a private kitchen."

The aunt standing next to him couldn't help but laugh and say, "Mr. Shen's knife skills and control of the heat are truly impressive; he knows how to cook."

Yu Binglan raised her chin: "I wasn't lying to you, was I?"

Looking at her smug expression, Yu Yehua felt both amused and sentimental.

Oh no, my daughter really loves it.

And Shen Ze is indeed a person who is hard to fault.

Young, capable, wealthy, insightful, stable, and a good cook.

Not to mention Yu Binglan liked it, Yu Yehua himself felt like he had struck gold.

After the meal, the aunt cleared the table, and the three of them sat back down in the living room.

Yu Yehua then steered the conversation back to Youth Road: "Xiao Shen, I won't beat around the bush with you."

"I really want that piece of land on Qingnian Road."

"Six billion is the current market estimate, but I will directly purchase it at the market price of eight billion."

Yu Binglan paused, "Eight billion, this price is much higher than the outside estimates."

Yu Yehua continued, "I won't take advantage of you. Once this land is in my hands, I will build commercial buildings, high-end supermarkets, and supporting complexes."

"Once the project is completed, I'll give you another 30% of the shares."

"In other words, I'll pay for the land, and you can continue to receive dividends from subsequent projects."

"If you feel that's not enough, we can discuss the terms further."

Shen Ze answered almost without hesitation: "Okay."

Yu Yehua was taken aback: "So agreeable?"

Shen Ze smiled and said, "Uncle Yu's offer is already very generous. Besides, Youth Road is indeed more suitable for implementation in your hands than in mine."

Looking at him, Yu Yehua felt even more satisfied. He was not greedy, did not procrastinate, and did not deliberately manipulate.

When the time comes, act more decisively than anyone else.

"it is good."

Yu Yehua patted the armrest of the sofa, "Then it's settled."

After discussing business, Yu Yehua asked Shen Ze about his past.

Shen Ze remained silent for a moment before calmly speaking: "When I was a child, Shen Jianjun abandoned me and my mother."

"My mother and I lived in an old building, and life was never easy for us."

"She was already in poor health, and then she suffered a lot of mistreatment, which made her illness worse and worse."

"I was young then and couldn't help her much."

Yu Binglan felt a lump in her throat and reached out to hold Shen Ze's hand.

Shen Ze gripped her hand and continued, "Later, I made some money through investments, and that's how I gradually accumulated what I have now."

He said this very naturally, without mentioning a single word about the system.

After hearing this, Yu Yehua's face darkened: "I used to think Shen Jianjun was just stupid, but now it seems he's evil."

"You abandoned your wife and children, and even let a woman like Sun Mei trample on you and your children."

"This kind of person deserves to have ended up like this."

Shen Ze did not respond.

Yu Yehua then asked, "Did your mother pass away very early?"

"Um."

"Just an illness?"

Shen Ze looked up at him.

Yu Yehua frowned: "I didn't mean to be nosy."

"But hearing you say that, I have a feeling that things aren't that simple."

"A woman with a child, driven to such a state by the Shen family and Sun Mei, her health deteriorated too quickly."

"There might be something else going on here."
