Chapter 17 Met An Acquaintance

We had a good chat with Guzheng that day, but it was just a good one. After that, we lost contact.

Later, Old Gao and I went to the fish pond he mentioned and talked to the boss, but we weren't sure yet. Old Gao didn't seem to be in a hurry, so we went there every day, except fishing or fishing.

Of course, other than fishing itself, it was to observe the number of people fishing in the pond, but it seems pretty good at the moment. Just from the fisherman's income of a few hundred a day, I can't judge how much the other pond is worth or what the future holds.

Old Gao once again asked me to help him in the pond, and I was a little shaken. Now for me, anything I do is like sitting around at home.

But I also made it clear to Old Gao that if I did, I would just pay me according to my workload. As for the profit of the pond, it was Old Gao's. To put it bluntly, he was the boss and I was his employee.

Working for one of my buddies sounds pretty embarrassing, but I don't care about that anymore.

In fact, it's okay to think it through. Old Gao and I have a different relationship. He helped me when I was down, and I would definitely help him one day when he was in trouble.

Life was still peaceful, but the next day, there was a slight fluctuation!

I received another call from Guzheng.

Although I thought I would never contact Guzheng again, I didn't delete her phone number, so when I saw the stored contact' Guzheng', I froze because I always thought that Guzheng and I wouldn't have any more contact!

So, after seeing this call, a lot of things popped up in my head. Did Guzheng fall in love with me?

This possibility is basically very small, not to mention that she did not have such a first love in Dalian, the eyes must be high thief, it is almost impossible to look at the ugly me!

And in the short time we've been in contact, I haven't had a chance to show my good side. Why would she like me?

Maybe there will be some good feelings between us, but this is just good feelings, definitely not the reason she called!

I can't figure it out!

But the phone still had to answer, so I pressed the connect button.

"Hello?"

"What are you busy with?" Guzheng sounded familiar.

"Nothing."

"Well, tomorrow is my birthday. There's a birthday party. Come over." Guzheng invited me to her birthday party?

"Yeah, I wish you a happy birthday in advance!" I frowned, then smiled and said, "I won't go to that party."

"What's wrong? Don't you have time?" Guzheng asked.

"Not really." I thought about it and said, "This... Your birthday must be all your friends' gathering. I don't even know you. I'm sorry to go. You can just get together."

"Hey, there's nothing to be embarrassed about." Guzheng smiled and said, "It's not the big party you think it is. It's just me and a few girlfriends. Plus, you only have five people. We're all girls. Why are you embarrassed? Besides, if you can't go on a blind date with me, friends can do it. My best friends are still single. I promise they're all beautiful women. I'll introduce you to each other. Which one of you meet tomorrow, I'll lead you."

Guzheng's explanation made me feel a little relieved. If she hadn't invited me because she liked me, then I wouldn't have felt awkward.

But I still have some doubts. Since it was a small gathering between her and her friends, why did she have to call me an outsider? Didn't they enjoy themselves more?

When I was young, I might be happy to look forward to it, but now, beautiful women are no longer attractive to me.

After thinking about it, I agreed to Guzheng, so I went out to buy a small gift. The next day, after I contacted Guzheng, I called him.

On the way there, I had some doubts. However, I was already on the way. I couldn't turn back, could I?

Guzheng told me to get out of the car in front of the park. Not long after I arrived, Guzheng arrived, which surprised me a little, because the girl said' coming soon' even if it wasn't much for half an hour, but Guzheng came very soon.

She stopped at the side of the road in her car and rolled down the window. She shouted to me, "Get in!"

I got in the car, and Guzheng was the only one in the car. I didn't see her best friend. I handed her the present in my hand and said, "Happy birthday!"

"Ah?" Guzheng took the gift and smiled bitterly, "What else are you going to give me? If you know what you want to give me, I won't let you give it to me in advance."

Guzheng put the gift in the back seat, which made me feel relieved, because I thought that if Guzheng was really interested in me, she would be eager to open the gift, but she didn't.

But maybe Guzheng is different from others. She doesn't care about these things at all. Besides, we're not 17 or 18 years old, so it's normal for her to not care about these things.

"This shouldn't be!" Actually, it didn't matter who I knew, but I didn't think I knew Guzheng very well, so I gave it to him.

"What should I do? None of my best friends will give me a present!"

"By the way, where's your best friend?" I

"They're calling, putting on makeup, going out, chatting, dawdling. They're definitely here at mealtime." The corners of Guzheng's mouth curved. It seemed that she had a good relationship with her close friends, or maybe they were close friends!

At this moment, Guzheng turned around and drove the car out. I asked her, "Where are we going now?"

"Go to the cake shop and take out the cake first." Guzheng looked ahead and focused on driving.

"Your best friend won't buy it for you?"

"They are just here to eat and drink!"

Soon the car came to the cake shop, but the cake was not ready. Guzheng and I had nothing to do, so we had to wait at the cake shop.

Guzheng was not an introverted girl, and it seemed like she never had to worry about having no topic to talk to.

We sat face to face, and she spoke more than I did. She was beautiful and chatty, and didn't make people hate her for talking too much, so I thought that even if it was impossible for us, it was really possible to treat her as a friend.

There are really not many girls with such wisdom and beauty.

She still asked me about my love story, but I didn't say much.

"You like movies too. What's your favorite movie?" Guzheng and I sat in the cake shop and chatted casually.

"Me, a lot of them, dark knight, inception, shawshank's redemption, the story of the eight loyal dogs... What about you?"

"I like the story of the eight loyal dogs, too. Well, I think it's pretty good." Guzheng said to me, "I'll treat you to a movie some other day."

At this time, the waiter came over with the cake and said, "Your cake is ready."

"Ah, sure." I answered at will.

The two of them went out of the bakery and Guzheng answered the phone, saying that three of their best friends had arrived, and then we started heading in the direction of the restaurant.

Guzheng said the three of them were already waiting for us in the private room, so Guzheng and I walked in together.

When I didn't open the door, I heard a few girls talking and laughing inside. Because Guzheng and I were just friends, I felt very relaxed. There was no tension or complacency between a boyfriend and his girlfriend.

"Why are you so late?" As soon as we entered, a girl was the first to accuse us.

"You still have the nerve to talk to us. If I hadn't kept pushing you, you would have come so soon!" Guzheng was also unconvinced.

I looked at the three girls in front of me and frowned slightly, because I found that Guzheng's three best friends actually had a familiar face!

This familiar face was none other than Old Gao's new girlfriend, Wang Mengmeng.

I was surprised that Wang Mengmeng was actually Guzheng's best friend. When I saw Wang Mengmeng, Wang Mengmeng looked at me in surprise.

Guzheng's other two close friends also looked at me, looking at me with a look of' I'm Guzheng's boyfriend and I'll take care of my close friends'. Guzheng wanted to introduce me to them, then saw Wang Mengmeng and I look at each other with a little doubt, and asked, "Do you know each other?"

"Yeah." I went back to Guzheng and then greeted Wang Mengmeng, "We meet again."

Wang Mengmeng was a little shy and nodded at me.

Then he looked at Guzheng's two other close friends and said, "Hello."

Guzheng introduced us separately. One of Guzheng's two best friends was Liu and the other was Jiang. Then we sat down. Guzheng asked me and Wang Mengmeng curiously, "How did you two meet?"

"Actually... We only met once." Wang mengmeng spoke first.

"Yeah. Wang Mengmeng's boyfriend is a buddy of mine. I know him like this." I smiled.

At this time, Guzheng and little liu xiaojiang looked at Wang Mengmeng in surprise and asked in unison, "When did you find a boyfriend?"

Jiang said, "Even I don't know?"

I don't understand what they said. Didn't Guzheng say they were best friends? Don't close friends share any secrets together?

How could they not know that wang Mengmeng had a boyfriend? I remember Guzheng told me before she came here that her best friends were all single, but now I know that Wang Mengmeng isn't?

Didn't Wang Mengmeng tell them?

Wang Mengmeng said shyly, "I... I'm still in the inspection period. He hasn't passed the test yet, so I didn't tell you."

I don't understand the concept of a complete pass in a girl's mouth, but what Old Gao told me was that they had already held hands, and that must have made the relationship clear!

If our man has a girlfriend and has feelings for her, he must want his friends to know that she recognizes her.

So why didn't Wang Mengmeng tell her best friend?

"Haha, Old Gao is a bit unreliable. You have to keep an eye on him." Although I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, on the surface, I still said it amiably.

My first impression of Wang Mengmeng was good, but I don't know why, but now I don't understand Wang Mengmeng.

Although she seems to be a very simple girl on the surface, I think she is quite scheming!
