Chapter 200 : Ask Guzheng for Help

It seems that since I met Guzheng, she has been helping me. From the first time I met her, she has helped me time and time again. To this day, she is still the only one who can help me!

What I owe Guzheng is not as simple as a love debt!

Life is always so wonderful, I thought we would never meet, who would have thought that we would come to this stage!

And because of the relationship between us, I have a lot of pressure in my heart.

Even if I didn't want to ask Guzheng for help, time wouldn't allow me to delay.

I called Guzheng.

Soon, Guzheng got through. She smiled at me and said, "Why did you suddenly remember to call me?"

I gritted my teeth, took a deep breath, and calmly asked, "Where are you, Guzheng?"

"I'm renting." Perhaps Guzheng recognized my tone and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

"Yes," I said, perplexed, "I have something urgent to ask you for help!"

"What are you busy with?"

"Let's talk about it when we meet. I'll go find you now."

It's better to talk about such a big thing in person. Guzheng didn't say anything more, just that she was waiting for me at home.

I took the car keys and drove Lin Ya's car back to the neighborhood.

Today, the hotel will be closed for a day. I was not there when the incident happened last night. I don't know if there was any psychological panic to the customers. For the hotel, I was especially afraid of this kind of thing. It really affected its reputation.

Jiang yan's mood must have been affected, and they still need to be comforted once the matter is settled.

Before this matter was resolved, he felt that there were still many things waiting for him.

What a headache!

It was a little cloudy today, and the sun was hiding behind thick clouds, and the temperature seemed to have dropped a little. This winter, we are stepping on our feet like giants, and every inch of space is filled with the winter's chilling air.

My clothes were already a little thin, but my mind was in a mess and I didn't think much about adding clothes.

Not long after, I came to the neighborhood.

After getting out of the car, I looked at Guzheng's house again, calmed my thoughts, and went upstairs.

Guzheng opened the door for me.

Guzheng didn't seem to be in a good condition. She stared at me for a few seconds, her face a little grim, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Her voice was a little hoarse. I remember that she had a cold a few days ago, and she's not well yet? It's been a few days.

Guzheng looked at me and sighed, "You can sit down first."

I sat on the sofa in a daze. Guzheng kindly poured me a cup of hot water, then sat aside and said, "It's not easy for you to take the initiative to find me. There must be something really big! Tell me, what can I do for you?"

Guzheng's words made me feel even more embarrassed, as if I was a jerk who kept asking for things without knowing what to return. But now that I'm here, my face has long been disregarded, so I said to Guzheng, "I want to borrow some money from you."

"How much?" Guzheng said without thinking.

"Three hundred thousand!"

Guzheng frowned when I told her the number. After all, it was not a small number. Even if Guzheng's family had money, she might not be able to make the decision.

"Is it to pay off the debts you owed before?"

Guzheng didn't know that the debts had been paid off. I shook my head.

"What's that? Why do you owe so much money?" Guzheng should know why I borrowed money.

I looked at Guzheng. I didn't want to hide anything from Guzheng, but this story involved Old Gao and Wang Mengmeng's past. I don't know how she would react when she heard that Wang Mengmeng had cheated Old Gao to nothing.

"This has something to do with Old Gao."

Guzheng looked puzzled.

"Do you remember when Old Gao and Wang Mengmeng disappeared and we guessed that they had eloped?"

Guzheng nodded.

"Yes, they did elope. Old Gao sold the pond and the two of them took the money and went away."

Guzheng couldn't wait to ask, "Then how could Old Gao not know Mengmeng's whereabouts?"

"Because wang mengmeng deceived Old Gao, she wasn't actually eloping with Old Gao. She was just taking all Old Gao's money for Old Gao's money. After she took all Old Gao's money away, she completely disappeared. She broke off contact with Old Gao, even with all of us, and couldn't be contacted anymore."

"How is that possible!" Hearing what I said, Guzheng immediately stood up with a look of extreme surprise on his face. She took a few steps in the room and said, "Mengmeng is not such a person!"

"But Old Gao has no reason to lie! And it's an iron fact that she took Old Gao's money away!" It wasn't just because Old Gao was my brother that I turned to him. It was because of his condition over the past few months that he had been showing the pain in his heart. He would never lie to us.

Guzheng was still reluctant to believe this fact, and I didn't say anything more. I just let her slow down for a while. It would be hard for her to believe that her best friend was a liar.

"How did this happen?" Guzheng's expression was tinged with pain.

"It was because Wang Mengmeng had deceived him that Old Gao was almost on the verge of being loveless, so he wanted to release the pain in his heart through the fall. He started gambling in Moon city and deliberately lost hundreds of thousands. But at that time, he didn't know that his father was caught, so he couldn't pay back. Now he's here to ask for the bill, and he said that if he doesn't pay it back today, he'll just ask for a finger. There's nothing I can do... I have to come to you."

I didn't go into detail about last night's adventure, but Guzheng should be able to sense the precipitousness of the situation.

Guzheng sighed deeply. After a while, she said quietly, "It seems that I misunderstood Old Gao. Mengmeng may have really lied to Old Gao, to all of us, but she... Why would she do that?"

Sometimes we don't know much about the people around us.

"Three hundred thousand?" Guzheng asked again.

I nodded.

Guzheng looked a little embarrassed. I knew it wasn't a small amount, so I said, "Guzheng, although this is Old Gao's fault, Hu Zi and Old Gao, we will take it together. The Xingyun hotel can actually be said to be shared by the three of us, so we will pay off our debts with our monthly profits, so we can pay you back in a few months."

"That's not the problem."

I saw that Guzheng's expression was still solemn and his heart was beating even more. I could not help but ask with a quiver of lips, "What's the problem?"

At this moment, I was extremely nervous. Because I was so afraid that Guzheng wouldn't lend us money. I didn't blame her, but I really didn't know what to do if she didn't.

"That's right," Guzheng said to me, "Now my parents and I are having a really bad time. They have always been dissatisfied with my performance. If it were in the past, it wouldn't have mattered. Now, I'm afraid my father and mother won't agree."

Guzheng's words sent my heart to the bottom of the valley, and that little bit of hope was gradually extinguished.

Xing Yun, don't worry. I'll do my best to help you. Guzheng said to me very seriously.

But her expression made me feel even more ashamed!

After that, Guzheng took out her phone and walked to her bedroom. I thought she was borrowing money for us. I couldn't help but feel grateful. It's rare for a friend like Guzheng to be so loyal. I'm really glad to have such a friend at this moment.

But before the results came out, my heart could not fall. For a moment, he was very nervous.

I couldn't hear Guzheng on the phone in the living room, so I had to wait.

After a while, Guzheng came out of the bedroom and slowly walked to me. However, her face was not good. Seeing her dispirited expression, my heart trembled and I understood the answer.

It felt as if the whole world had suddenly darkened. Guzheng's path had failed, so what should I do?

Guzheng sat apologetically by the side.

I closed my eyes and felt a surge in my heart.

I had to grit my teeth and try to calm down.

Just as I was about to say goodbye to Guzheng, suddenly, Guzheng said to me, "Xing Yun, I have a way!"

"What's the solution?" My eyes suddenly lit up. I wouldn't miss a chance.

Guzheng frowned, pursed his lips, and said to me after a moment of silence, "If this method succeeds, you have to promise me a request!"

Three hundred thousand. Guzheng's request was not too much.

But I suddenly felt a little drummed up in my heart. I wonder what Guzheng would ask of me?

"What request?" I asked uneasily.

But I think, if I can do it, I will really be obliged.

Guzheng took a deep breath, looked into my eyes and said, "Be my boyfriend!"

Guzheng's words made me shudder. I really didn't expect her to make this request at this time. Even if I lent her 300,000 yuan, I still felt that her request was particularly inappropriate.

Love is really not a forced thing. Without love, what's the point of being her boyfriend?

Her request made me very uncomfortable.

But if she only had this request, I think I would agree. I can't just watch Old Gao and the restaurant get destroyed.

However, Guzheng suddenly smiled and said to me, "Look at your expression. I haven't finished yet. Just listen to me."

I frowned. What else was Guzheng trying to say?

"That's right." Guzheng said shyly to me, "I won't hide it from you. Now, my parents don't like me in any way. The most important reason is that I don't have a boyfriend. They have been looking forward to bringing a boyfriend home, which is their biggest wish, not one of them! So, I mean, we can pretend to be boyfriend and girlfriend, so my parents should give me money! I can lend it to you."

Pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend?

I thought to myself, is this really okay?
