SAG -Chapter 88 So I Was a Second-Generation Demolition Heir?

Starting as a Grandfather6 min read88 of 196

Since Pang Bo had prepared everything in advance, choosing the cars went fairly quickly.

Zhang Sicheng didn’t have many choices. Under Meng Mingxuan’s guidance, he picked a high-end sedan.

He knew this model.

Many company bosses drove cars like this.

Elegant, imposing, and expensive.

As for Liu Lu and Zhang Siyan, they fell into hesitation.

They had no idea what kind of car to choose.

“Sister-in-law, I think this one suits you very well.”

“It’s a MINI. Perfect for women to drive. The interior is also very nice…”

Ning Qing began recommending a car to Liu Lu.

Liu Lu actually liked the model too.

Cars like this were very popular with women.

Many women didn’t pay much attention to performance when choosing a car.

Most cared more about appearance.

“How much does this one cost?”

Liu Lu asked quietly.

She didn’t know much about cars and had never imagined buying one herself before.

Ning Qing smiled.

“It’s not expensive. Around 300,000 yuan.”

“With Pang Bo’s discount, the final price after everything should be just over 300,000.”

“Ah? That’s so expensive. Then I don’t want this one.”

Liu Lu blurted out instinctively.

Ning Qing was speechless.

She pointed at the car parked outside, her meaning obvious:

Your clothes and handbags are worth more than this car.

With Ning Qing’s reminder, Liu Lu finally reacted and felt a little embarrassed.

An hour later, Zhang Sicheng had chosen a high-end sedan.

Liu Lu chose a MINI.

Zhang Siyan chose a fairly standard sedan.

Zhang Ran didn’t buy a car for himself.

He continued using Meng Mingxuan’s car, which was convenient enough.

Payment, paperwork, and license plates were all handled in one go.

Because Zhang Ran had already arranged everything in advance, the process was extremely fast and didn’t take long at all.

Then they drove home.

They had left home in one car.

Now, four cars returned.

After helping drive the cars back, Meng Mingxuan and Ning Qing left.

Although Liu Lu had a driver’s license, she didn’t dare drive by herself yet.

Zhang Sicheng was actually a decent driver.

But sitting behind the wheel of a million-yuan car, he felt stiff and nervous.

Everyone carried piles of shopping bags upstairs.

Whenever they met familiar neighbors, they greeted them.

The neighbors already knew about Zhang Ran’s situation.

After the initial curiosity, they no longer felt it was especially strange.

Once they got home, Xiaotao and Susu immediately collapsed on the sofa without moving.

The two little ones had been exhausted today too.

Liu Lu went into the kitchen to cook.

The others didn’t speak.

They simply waited quietly for Zhang Ran to begin.

But Zhang Ran wasn’t in a hurry.

Only after Liu Lu finished cooking and everyone had started eating did he finally speak.

“Sicheng, Siyan, Liu Lu…”

“Hmm… how should I put this?”

“To put it simply, before my accident, I bought several properties in Shanghai, Yangcheng, and Beijing.”

Zhang Ran chose his words carefully as he looked at everyone’s hesitant expressions.

The three adults were confused at first.

Then they immediately reacted.

These days, when people mentioned houses, the first thing that came to mind was housing prices.

The second was demolition compensation.

After processing Zhang Ran’s words for a moment, Zhang Sicheng hesitated before asking, “You mean… the properties you bought back then were demolished?”

That was the only explanation for how Zhang Ran had so much money.

At first, when Zhang Ran bought them a house, they assumed it was money he had saved before.

They thought that after buying the house, he probably didn’t have much left.

But after today’s wild spending spree, they no longer believed that.

Roughly speaking, just the clothing, shoes, handbags, cosmetics, and other items bought for the three adults today had cost well over three million yuan.

Compared to that…

The cars were actually the smaller expense.

Because of everything that had happened today, Zhang Ran’s explanation was easier for them to accept.

They had already been shocked numb by how casually he spent money.

Zhang Ran nodded.

“Yes.”

“The demolition compensation was quite substantial.”

“When I returned, the state returned the money to me.”

After receiving confirmation, Zhang Sicheng’s face showed no expression.

He simply stared blankly at Zhang Ran.

Only now did he realize—

He had actually been a second-generation demolition heir all along.

Zhang Siyan and Liu Lu were the same.

Neither knew what to say.

Especially Liu Lu.

When she’d married Zhang Sicheng, she’d never imagined she might one day live as a wealthy wife.

She had married him because of the person he was.

To marry him, she had nearly fallen out with her own family.

Most importantly…

Even now, Zhang Sicheng had never paid her family a single cent in bride price.

Back then, Zhang Sicheng had truly had nothing.

No house.

No car.

Almost no savings.

Yet Liu Lu had still resolutely married him.

For years, the couple had worked hard together and finally managed to save a little money.

Even after Zhang Ran suddenly returned and bought them a house, she had never thought about receiving anything from him.

But now…

Her suddenly returned father-in-law was telling her that their family was actually wealthy.

Although Liu Lu still didn’t know exactly how much demolition compensation there was…

Judging from today’s shopping spree, it had to be a lot.

After Zhang Ran finished explaining, he waited for them to ask questions.

But after waiting for quite some time, all he saw was the three adults sitting in a daze.

The only sounds at the table were the two little ones eating earnestly.

After a long while, Zhang Sicheng finally said, “But… even so, you didn’t have to do this.”

“Buying so many things really wasn’t necessary.”

“It’s a waste of money.”

“And Liu Lu and I both work. One car would have been enough.”

“I didn’t need such an expensive car either.”

“Siyan is the one doing business now. She should be the one with a better car.”

Zhang Ran understood what Zhang Sicheng meant.

He smiled.

“Don’t worry.”

“I have plans for Siyan too.”

“As for why I bought you such a good car and so many clothes…”

“There is a reason.”

Before Zhang Sicheng could respond, Zhang Ran continued, “You know your company is about to be acquired, right?”

Zhang Sicheng nodded instinctively.

But soon, he froze.

How did Zhang Ran know that?

Could it be…?

Combining today’s events with everything Zhang Ran had just revealed, he seemed to realize something.

Zhang Siyan and Liu Lu came to the same conclusion.

Sure enough, Zhang Ran soon said, “I’m the one acquiring that company.”

“The acquisition should be completed the day after tomorrow.”

“When the time comes, you’ll go sign the papers.”

“That company will belong to you.”

The moment those words came out…

Zhang Sicheng, Liu Lu, and Zhang Siyan were truly stunned.

This revelation shook them far more than anything Zhang Ran had done before.
