Chapter 100 Old Gao's Change

"Then let them catch them." Old Gao still spoke in a nonchalant tone.

I looked at Guzheng and tugged at her, making it even harder to ask. And what's the point of calling the police with Old Gao right now? His dad's still inside. He's bringing up Old Gao's heartbreak.

At the same time, I whispered to Guzheng about the breakup. Guzheng was a little surprised, but yesterday we had some guesses, so it was expected.

Guzheng's mood eased a little. She took a few deep breaths and calmed down. Then she said calmly, "Old Gao, as Mengmeng's friend, we are all worried about her. I'm afraid only you know about her now. No matter what happened between you two, we just want to know how she is now. At least we can know her safety, right?"

This time, Old Gao stood up and looked at Guzheng. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly and he said, "Yes, between us, I saw her last! But now, I really don't know her news, I don't know how she is, who she is with, is it safe? I know nothing like you."

We can all hear the resentment in Old Gao's words, or' hate'!

Guzheng said anxiously, "Even if you don't know what happened during the days you disappeared, can you tell us?"

Old Gao's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light. He looked at Guzheng, his eyes piercing. After a while, the light in his eyes faded away, and his whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of sadness. The corners of his mouth curled up and he said with self-deprecation, "Although I don't know where she is, don't worry. She must be safe and she lives very well. Even better than us."

Old Gao's words made us very confused and more curious about what happened between them.

Moreover, I had an even worse guess in my heart. I suddenly remembered the time I saw Wang Mengmeng sitting outside Guzheng's window. She was with a man I had never seen before. What was their relationship?

At this time, it was too late to mention this, so I didn't intend to tell Old Gao.

Then Old Gao said in a low voice, "So, you don't have to care about her at all. She's fine!"

After saying so much, Old Gao still didn't mention anything about these days, and Guzheng didn't ask anything. I know Old Gao's temper. Since he doesn't want to say it now, he won't say it even if you ask him again.

Just like he and his predecessor Fang Qingyu, I still only know a little about them from Old Gao's words.

Guzheng's face was a little ugly, I can understand. But it's no use getting angry at Old Gao. We can all see how upset he is. So I comforted Guzheng a little. Guzheng had no choice but to leave.

Old Gao squatted down again and there were more cigarette butts in front of him.

I sighed. In his love with Wang Mengmeng, I don't know if Wang Mengmeng is the winner, but Old Gao is definitely the loser.

Old Gao, who was once arrogant, seemed to think that there was no girl he could not catch up with. However, when he began to take a relationship seriously, it just slipped away so ruthlessly, leaving a painful scar all over his body.

After a while, Old Gao said, "What's the matter with you two? Go buy me some clothes and get a haircut and a bath."

I took a look at Old Gao, and it was true that he needed a good rest from his shabby appearance. Hu Zi and I took a look. We had to run to the restaurant this morning, but let's do it in the afternoon.

Hu Zi touched her hair and said, "Okay, I should get a haircut too."

After Old Gao told his mother, the three of them went out to buy Old Gao clothes first.

Old Gao used to buy clothes at all kinds of branded stores, never looking at the price of the clothes, as long as he could buy them, the shoes under his feet had always been several hundred, after all, he had lived in a rich circle since childhood and was used to spending a lot of money, even when he was working hard in the pond, the same was true.

There's a big gap between our families.

But now, Old Gao couldn't afford to buy those expensive clothes. He could only go to the mall like us.

I'm really worried about Old Gao. He won't be able to adapt to such a big gap. Determination and faith are one thing, and real life is another.

But Old Gao seemed to be getting used to it very quickly. He didn't dislike anything. Of course, he had no conditions to dislike it now.

We bought a few clothes with him. They were very cheap. Old Gao, who never haggled, also made a bargain for the first time. At this moment, all of his clothes might not be worth the shoes he used to wear.

Then we went to the barber shop to get a haircut. Old Gao cut his hair very short, almost as short as his bald head, leaving only a very short hair. In the past, he used to cherish his hair so much. His long hair was always in a fluttering state, showing off all kinds of fancy perms and changes.

So the first time I saw Old Gao in such a shape, it was really hard to get used to.

I feel a little unspeakable sadness in my heart.

Although there was a big gap between my family and Old Gao's, we never cared about this. I never felt inferior because of Old Gao's family, nor did I have any hatred for the rich.

Life has never been fair. Some people are born rich and some are born weak and sickly. In the world where we shout "Fair," injustice is everywhere.

But this is what Old Gao had since he was born. As his friend, I hope he's the same.

After the shower, we went to dinner together. For some reason, we felt a little depressed.

At the dinner table, Old Gao touched his new head shape and weighed his new clothes. His mouth curved slightly and he said with self-deprecation, "It feels pretty good."

He looked at us and smiled, "You don't have to be sad for me, really! I think it's good that the old Old Gao died and a brand new Old Gao was born. You should be happy for me."

Hu Zi and I smiled but said nothing.

Old Gao had to take care of his mother in the afternoon, and Hu Zi and I were busy, so the three of them didn't drink.

I don't think I had the time to tell him about my partnership with Hu Zi yesterday. Although it doesn't seem appropriate to say it now, the restaurant is about to open, and Old Gao will still know.

So, I told Old Gao about the two of them running a restaurant together.

Old Gao smiled and said, "Really, you two? When will it open?"

"Just a few days." Hu Zi replied.

Old Gao gave me a push and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that. I haven't been away for a few days. You two have become bosses when I come back."

"What boss? I don't know how it's going to work."

Old Gao smiled bitterly and said with a somewhat desolate expression, "It can be done, it can be done."

I could feel Old Gao's current state of mind. After all, among the three of us, Old Gao was a rich second generation who didn't have to worry about money, while Hu Zi and I were working hard. Now that we're both bosses, Old Gao has nothing.

I'm afraid that anyone would be uncomfortable with this difference!

At this moment, Old Gao looked up at us and said, "By the way, is there enough people in your restaurant? Dude, now that he's down and out, he has to follow you guys around. I can even carry dishes and wash dishes."

"You?"

I don't know what to say for a moment. Old Gao hasn't suffered much. I'm afraid he doesn't wash the dishes at home. Can he stand being a waiter in a restaurant?

Although I used to be tired in the pond, it was definitely more comfortable than being a waiter.

Old Gao looked at me jokingly and said, "Xing Yun, you can't just sit back and do nothing. I've taken care of you before. You can't leave me now."

Old Gao deliberately used an exaggerated expression and tone. I know he was just trying to give himself a step down, because he had to save face to be a waiter.

"Are you sure?" Hu Zi and I looked at each other, but we both wanted to help Old Gao.

Old Gao nodded.

I sighed and said, "You can do anything else?"

"What am I doing?" Old Gao smiled bitterly, opened his hands and said with a bitter smile, "What do you think I can do? I know nothing but eating, drinking, and having fun. How can a person like me use me? I know I'm a loser without my parents! Nothing!"

"Old Gao, don't say that." Hu Zi said.

"Sure. Since you're here, come on." I put my hands on Old Gao and Hu Zi's shoulders and said, "The three of us start a business together!"

Old Gao lowered his head slightly, without much excitement.

And I was a little overwhelmed, because I always felt that this change was too big, although it should actually be closer.

I am afraid that our friendship will fade, and I am afraid that we will gradually alienate!

I thought of another thing, so I told Old Gao not to tell anyone about me being one of the restaurant owners, and even about the debt I had to pay off, to help me hide it.

Old Gao looked at me doubtfully and asked, "Why?"

"Just help me keep it a secret."

Old Gao nodded.

After dinner, we sent Old Gao to the hospital, and then we busied ourselves for the restaurant. At the same time, we arranged for Jiang Yan to treat him to dinner tonight.

If Jiang Yan is really a good cook, of course we have to respect him.

In the afternoon, we went to see big things like air conditioning freezers. These were not small numbers. Hu Zi and I didn't have easy money, so we had to calculate each expenditure carefully.

In the evening, Hu Zi went to pick up jiang yan, and I went to the hotel to reserve a seat.

Not long after, the two of them came over, and for the first time, I saw the great hero of our hotel's future - Jiang Yan!
