C429 Father and Daughter Reunion
"Didn't you get kidnapped? Why would they let you go? " Zhang Huaqiao suddenly thought of that extortion phone and immediately asked about the situation.
"Wu Tian saved me." Zhang Xinyi turned her head to look at Wu Tian and recounted the whole story in detail.
When he found out what happened, Zhang Huaqiao walked over and bowed deeply towards Wu Tian: "Mr Wu, thank you for saving my daughter, I will be forever grateful."
"President Zhang, you're too polite." Wu Tian quickly reached out his hand to help Zhang Huaqiao up.
"You brought my daughter back with your safety belt, and you even saved my daughter's life. From today onwards, you will be my benefactor." Zhang Huaqiao waved his hand and immediately made a decision, "I plan to give you 10% of the shares of Huaxing Corporation as a reward."
"That won't do." Wu Tian quickly waved his hand and refused: "It's nothing, I don't dare to ask for credit."
He was not interested in this small amount of shares. What he wanted was the entire Huaxing, which would allow him to enter the film industry.
To put it bluntly, he did not lack money. What he lacked was a platform.
A good platform was like a springboard, it could help him quickly enter this strange industry and achieve rapid growth.
"Mr Wu, I'll keep my word. Since you've helped me bring my daughter back, I'll help you set up a new film and television company. I'll send half of my resources and talent to your new company …"
"Dad!"
Before Zhang Huaqiao could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Zhang Xinyi. "Why am I back here? I heard you talking about the company. Can you spend some time with me?"
"Alright, let's not talk business today and accompany my good daughter." Zhang Huaqiao stroked Zhang Xinyi's hair on her forehead, smiled and said, "Let's go, I'll take my precious daughter to eat. Oh right, Mr Wu, Miss Huang, why don't you go with me?"
"Yeah, thank you for saving me." Zhang Xinyi followed up on the conversation. She was very trusting of Wu Tian right now.
Not only did she trust him, she adored him and was infatuated with him.
Wu Tian's previous perfect performance in the young man's apartment made her feel happy and she couldn't help but be a bit excited.
"Fine." Wu Tian didn't argue. He smiled and nodded: "Then I'll do as you say."
"Let's go. There's a hotel right opposite the company, please." Zhang Huaqiao made a "please" gesture, then led his daughter out of the office.
The four of them went to the hotel across the street and ordered a private room. After they finished, they started chatting.
"Mr Wu, I really didn't expect you to know martial arts." Zhang Huaqiao couldn't help but sigh.
"He's very powerful." At the mention of martial arts, Zhang Xinyi became especially excited, "Dad, when he was facing the four hoodlums, Wu Tian didn't even bat an eye. He kicked his left leg and punched right on the hook, quickly knocking out all four hoodlums."
As she said this, her tone was filled with endless worship and infatuation.
"You're amazing. This is the first time I've heard Xinyi praise someone else so highly." After Zhang Huaqiao said this, he raised his head and laughed out loud.
He hadn't laughed much since his wife died, and he was especially happy to be reunited with his daughter today.
"President Zhang, you're too kind. I'm just some flowery fists and pretty legs. I can't get on the stage." Wu Tian said humbly.
"Mr Wu, no need to be modest." Zhang Huaqiao poured a few cups of wine and pushed one to Wu Tian. "Thank you, Mr Wu, for saving my Xinyi. Let me toast you."
"President Zhang is too polite." Wu Tian hurriedly raised his glass to clink with Zhang Huaqiao, then both of them drank it down in one gulp.
Just as the waiter was starting to serve the dishes.
Zhang Xinyi immediately picked up her chopsticks and gave Wu Tian some food. She smiled and said, "Help me teach those hoodlums a lesson. Eat more."
At this moment, Zhang Xinyi had the temperament of a lady from a noble family, and she seemed to be much more sensible than before.
"Thank you!" After Wu Tian expressed his thanks, he started to enjoy the delicacies and felt gratified by the father and daughter pair's hospitality.
"Come, let me pour some wine for you." Zhang Xinyi was not only busy with dishes, but she was also busy with pouring wine for Wu Tian.
This made Zhang Huaqiao a little jealous. He joked, "Everyone says that once a girl grows up, she wants to get married. This is the first time you and Mr Wu have met, you are being too friendly."
"Dad, what are you saying, drink up." Zhang Xinyi's face reddened as she hurriedly poured wine for her father.
Huang Lan felt a bit uncomfortable when she saw her father and daughter talking and laughing with Wu Tian.
She wasn't stupid, she could naturally see that Zhang Xinyi was interested in Wu Tian. However, she couldn't say much, so she just sat to the side and ate her food.
When they were almost done eating, Zhang Xinyi suddenly pleaded with her father, "Dad, can you spend more time with me in the future?"
"Alright, I'll be with you after I finish my work at the company." Zhang Huaqiao promised his daughter with a smile.
"Can you not go to work at the company and spend all your time and energy with me?"
The smile on Zhang Huaqiao's face gradually disappeared. It was really impossible for him to let go of the company now.
"In the past, when her mother was still alive, she would often stay in the empty room by herself. There wasn't even someone who could talk to her." Zhang Xinyi held her father's arm and lamented, "For women, they don't need much money. Accompanying them is the greatest happiness."
"I …"
These words touched Zhang Huaqiao's heart, and he felt a little sour inside.
"Dad."
Zhang Xinyi leaned her head on her father's shoulder and said sweetly, "You were always busy with your work. I hope you could let go of everything and spend more time with me. Eating, shopping, and traveling together. This is the life I want."
"But what about the company?" Zhang Huaqiao still couldn't let the company go.
"Sell the company." Zhang Xinyi looked her father in the eye and said seriously, "We are not short on money right now. You can save your time since you sold the company. I also don't want you to keep working for the company like this."
"Let me think." Zhang Huaqiao was moved by his daughter's persuasion, he rubbed his head and fell into deep thought.
At this time, Wu Tian interrupted, "President Zhang, your daughter is right. To give up at the right time is to be responsible for the family. Don't let your wife's regrets be left to your daughter."
"But my company..."
"Leave the company to me, I will buy it at ten times the market price and also give you 30% of the shares. In this way, even if you have the time to accompany your daughter, the company will still have your income. Killing two birds with one stone, why not?"
Zhang Huaqiao turned around and looked at his daughter. Finally, he made his decision: "Okay, let's do it."
He didn't want to leave his regrets for his wife to his daughter and planned to spend the rest of his time with her.
"President Zhang, don't worry. Hand the company over to me. I can give you three promises." Wu Tian smiled and stretched out three fingers: "First, the company will always have your shares. Second, the company will never change its name. Third, the company will never sell out."
"Alright, I believe you." Zhang Huaqiao raised his glass and raised his head with a smile: "I'm very happy to know you."
"Me too." Wu Tian pursed his lips into a smile, raised his glass and clinked it with Zhang Huaqiao's, then finished the wine in his cup.
