After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

"Yang, have you never been married?"

Xu Yanxia changed the subject. She had been called over by her sister mainly to act as an "interrogation officer" after all, since it wouldn\'t be appropriate for Xu Yanfen, the "mother-in-law," to dig too deep at their first meeting.

But it didn\'t matter for Xu Yanxia, the outsider.

"No, I was married, but then I got divorced!"

Yang Hao answered truthfully.

"What?"

Upon hearing this, the Xu sisters exchanged glances, both somewhat baffled.

They had thought that the "boyfriend" Guan Mengmeng brought back was just older in age; they hadn\'t expected him to be divorced and on his second marriage.

However, seeing the sisters\' expressions, Guan Mengmeng was quite pleased. She couldn\'t help but curl the corners of her mouth upward, revealing a smile of triumphant cunning.

In her heart, she silently mumbled: Ms. Xu Yanxia, keep asking, ask if he has children...

"Yang, then you don\'t have children, right?"

Possibly influenced by Guan Mengmeng\'s silent plea, Xu Yanxia actually asked this question.

Xu Yanfen\'s gaze was fixed on Yang Hao, as this was a very important issue. In today\'s society, divorce rates are high, and there are many cases of short-term, childless marriages—which many people can accept. After all, it\'s just an extra divorce certificate.

Nowadays, even if young people don\'t register their marriages, cohabitation is common and not much different from being married. In the end, they don\'t miss out on doing anything that married couples do.

So whether or not he has children is the crucial point!

"I have a five-year-old daughter."

Yang Hao responded truthfully.

"What?"

"This..."

Xu Yanxia, who asked the question, was stunned, and so was "mother-in-law" Xu Yanfen.

Even the two men, Guan Weimin and Feng Changfu, who had been silent, were stunned!

Guan Weimin, the ordinarily composed chief physician, felt his mouth twitch violently.

What on earth was his daughter bringing home?

An older, divorced man with a child!

He looked at his wife, Xu Yanfen, and couldn\'t help but silently complain to himself: Nudge! That\'s what you get for nudging! Happy now?!!

Watching the fantastic expressions on the faces of the four elders, Guan Mengmeng couldn\'t help but feel a secret thrill. She said cheerfully, "Being divorced is great, with plenty of experience. The mistakes made the first time around won\'t be made again!"

"And you see, companies like to hire people with experience. The same goes for finding a husband; you need someone experienced, right?"

"Having a child is even better!"

"I can step right into motherhood, which saves so much trouble!"

"And I can avoid the risks associated with childbirth..."

The more Guan Mengmeng spoke, the more excited she became. She was really getting into her role, listing all the benefits of an older divorced man with a child.

Yang Hao, the man in question, listened in bewilderment, even beginning to understand why some women loved those inspirational videos.

My gosh, what a relief!

Although I\'m a divorced woman with a child, one day, my dream lover will show up in a Rolls-Royce, with a multimillion-dollar dowry, and take me home!!

For instance, Wen, the former child star who found fame again through live-streaming, didn\'t he marry a woman who was divorced with an eight-year-old child.

"Stop!!"

At this moment, Xu Yanfen forcibly interrupted Guan Mengmeng\'s rambling thoughts.

She glared fiercely at her rebellious daughter and then turned to Yang Hao, saying, "Mengmeng is young and naive, but Yang, you\'re more experienced and should have a profound understanding of marriage. Given the age difference between you two and your current situation, do you think you are suitable for each other?"

"I don\'t care what he thinks; I care what I think!"

Guan Mengmeng took over the conversation with a determined tone, saying: "I think we are quite suitable!"

"You!!"

Xu Yanfen was so angry, she had to steady herself by touching her forehead. She clearly saw that her defiant daughter hadn\'t brought someone home with good intentions.

"Xiaofen, don\'t get worked up."

Xu Yanxia signaled her sister to calm down and then looked Yang Hao up and down before slowly saying, "Yang, our family is very open-minded. In fact, as long as Mengmeng agrees, we support it."

"But you\'re experienced now, marriage requires financial stability, and you\'ve already got one child. If you really marry Mengmeng, you\'d want to have a child that belongs to both of you, perhaps even two, then you\'d be a family of five!"

"So housing is a big issue. For a family of five, you\'ll need at least a 140 to 150 square meter home, and considering the schooling of the future children, it\'s best to buy a house in a school district."

"That\'s the most practical problem. So, do you have a 150 square meter home in a school district?"

Xu Yanxia\'s strong argument set a high bar, hoping to make Yang Hao give up knowing the difficulty.

In any city, homes in school districts are quite expensive. In Jiangcheng, the average home price is around 15,000 per square meter, but the price for a good school district home is almost double. A 150 square meter home in a school district would cost at least four to five million.

Xu Yanfen nodded subtly, mentally applauding her sister, thinking it was indeed right to call her over.

"Yang, you\'ve been through this, let\'s lay it all out and speak frankly."

Seeing that Yang Hao said nothing, Xu Yanxia spoke again.

This time, Yang Hao finally spoke, "I don\'t have a 150 square meter home in a school district..."

Upon hearing this, the Xu sisters exchanged glances, smiles appearing on their faces.

However, at that moment, they heard Yang Hao ask, "Um, would 688 square meters be okay?"

"If not, I will sell it and get a 150 square meter one!!"

Xu Yanxia: (°ー°〃)

Xu Yanfen: (⊙ˍ⊙)

Guan Mengmeng: ???

She quickly tugged at the corner of Yang Hao\'s clothes and whispered, "Yang, you\'re overdoing it!!"

"No, I didn\'t hear clearly. How many squares did you say the house was?"

Xu Yanxia, coming back to her senses, asked.

"688 square meters."

"The complex is called Star Cloud Bay, I think it\'s in a school district."

Yang Hao wasn\'t actually sure if it was in a school district, but with the property\'s price and central city location, the schools should be good.

"Star Cloud Bay?"

"688 square meters??"

The Xu sisters were unsettled, and Guan Weimin and Feng Changfu were also staring at Yang Hao with shocked faces.

Star Cloud Bay was too well-known in Jiangcheng, especially for middle-class families like theirs, it was well-known.

Because they, living relatively comfortable lives, could come across or even interact with people from that level of society.

For example, Xu Yanfen who had been working at the municipal women\'s federation naturally had met many female entrepreneurs, some of whom lived in Star Cloud Bay.

Living in Star Cloud Bay in Jiangcheng was a symbol of status and wealth.

Different from the adults\' shock, Guan Mengmeng was now frantically stomping her foot, believing herself to know Yang Hao\'s situation.

At this moment, she was furiously mumbling inside her head: Yang, I got you to come back and pretend, but didn\'t ask you to play the role of a tycoon, why did you set up this persona for yourself!

And you don\'t understand my aunt. With her character, she will definitely want to check out the house. We\'ll be exposed!

"Yang, do you really have a house in Star Cloud Bay?"

Xu Yanxia steadied her emotions and pressed on with her question.

"Yes," Yang Hao nodded, sincerely saying, "Aunty, you told me to tell the truth, I\'m telling the truth..."

"If that\'s the case, would it be possible to take a look at it?"

"I\'ve never seen a house in Star Cloud Bay before, only heard about it." Xu Yanxia indeed suggested a visit. Your source for fiction: m-vlempyr.

Guan Mengmeng, who was prepared, immediately intervened, "It\'s not convenient, we don\'t have time!"

"Yang, you have to work overtime, right?"

"How about we just leave it at this for today?"

As Guan Mengmeng spoke, she kept making eye signals to Yang Hao, indicating for him to go along with her.

"Mengmeng, don\'t speak right now!"

Xu Yanfen glared at her daughter. She too had many questions, unsure whether the man her daughter brought home was just a fake to irritate her or actually wealthy.

If he was indeed wealthy, she could understand why her daughter was interested in him; he passed the external conditions and was also economically well-off, which could be considered.

After all, an age difference of a dozen years is nothing in today\'s society.

The tea brand owner Dong Zi is twenty years younger than her husband; Wang Shitou\'s wife is thirty years his junior; Zhang Yimou\'s wife is thirty-one years younger, and there\'s a big shot whose wife is fifty-four years younger than him.

Compared to that, a twelve-year age difference is practically a tycoon\'s conscience.
