Chapter 505: Qi Qi dropped out of school_1

After a busy day, it wasn’t until the afternoon that Ji Pianran returned with Tangtang.

Gu Chen keenly noticed that Tangtang was listless today, as if she couldn’t muster any energy at all.

"Tangtang, why are you so unhappy today?" Gu Chen asked curiously at that moment.

Upon hearing this, Tangtang looked up, her face full of unhappiness.

"Dad, Qi Qi officially dropped out of kindergarten today and will never come back." She was very downcast.

During her time at kindergarten, Qi Qi was her only friend.

Although she knew other children, she hadn’t formed as strong a bond with them as she had with Qi Qi.

Gu Chen felt helpless upon hearing this, because there was nothing he could do.

He could only encourage Tangtang to try and make some new friends, after all, given Qi Qi’s condition, she probably wouldn’t last many more years.

Leukemia is such a terrifying disease, the unstoppable kind.

Now, Qi Qi’s remaining time in this world is entirely at the mercy of fate.

Moreover, medical treatments nowadays are far from as advanced as they will be in the future.

In the future, who knows how much effort it would take to save someone.

Now, trying to pull someone back from The Gate of the Ghost is almost hopeless.

"Dad, can we go see Qi Qi again sometime?" Tangtang pleaded, worried she might never see Qi Qi again.

"Of course, we can. Tomorrow, after you finish school, Dad will take you to see her," Gu Chen nodded.

The friendship between little kids is also friendship, so Gu Chen fully supported it.

"Let’s buy some nutritional supplements for her before we go tomorrow," Ji Pianran reminded from the side.

Even if Ji Pianran hadn’t mentioned it, Gu Chen would have known; although it’s just a visit to a little friend, one must still buy the necessary things.

He could guess that Qi Qi’s father had probably already bought everything possible, and that these items wouldn’t be lacking in the hospital room.

But whether they have them is their business, buying them is his own.

During dinner, Tangtang was distracted, and Gu Chen didn’t disturb her, allowing her to reflect by herself, which was good too.

After dinner, Tangtang watched TV for a while before going to bed.

Gu Chen then cleaned up the dinner dishes and the remnants of food on the table.

Done with that, Gu Chen sat on the sofa and then turned to Ji Pianran, "I’ve been making some alcohol recently, I plan to sell it, do you want to give it a try?"

He said this to Ji Pianran at that moment.

Ji Pianran’s interest was instantly piqued, curiously looking at Gu Chen, wondering what kind of alcohol he had made.

Gu Chen then directly brought out the liquor jug from that morning, pouring Ji Pianran a cup.

Ji Pianran seldom drank, but for her husband, she was still willing to make a small sacrifice.

So she picked up the cup and took a small sip.

The aroma of the liquor immediately evaporated in her mouth.

After drinking, Ji Pianran was silent for a moment, then slowly started speaking, "I think the taste of the alcohol isn’t much of a problem, it’s quite good, or rather, it’s not the difficult-to-drink kind.

But why does this liquor taste like it’s both spirits and not spirits, fragrant and sweet at the same time, it’s quite amusing."

Indeed, Ji Pianran’s assessment of this liquor was that it was quite amusing.

Because this liquor didn’t have that strong stimulant effect on the brain and stomach.

This made her feel it was very novel; she had never drunk any alcohol like it.

She took another sip, this one much larger than the first, and Ji Pianran drank the liquor as if it were water.

Perhaps it was because that sip felt just like drinking water, but white liquor is white liquor after all, still somewhat stimulating. It made her face flush red in an instant, and she felt a bit tipsy.

"Honey, well done," she praised Gu Chen with a compliment.

The feedback from everyone was very fair. They didn’t rave about it being astonishing, but it was drinkable quality.

That was enough for Gu Chen. If everything went as expected, this small batch of white liquor should be a success.

And so, the matter of Gu Chen’s white liquor was completely settled.

Now, he just needed to go through the necessary procedures, and then he could find a factory and start bottling the liquor.

The money required for this was no small sum.

But thankfully, Gu Chen was making money every day. Otherwise, he might have struggled to keep the project afloat.

Early in the morning, Gu Chen went to deal with the procedures. Once these were sorted out, everything would be done.

In the afternoon, Gu Chen went to the internet café.

He needed to deliver money to Old Zhang, having not settled accounts with him for two days.

After tallying up the money for Old Zhang, his face beamed with happiness.

For him, this new daily life was quite satisfying.

Once his second computer was assembled, he could start making a fortune with the two computers.

Of course, this kind of money wouldn’t last forever.

At a rate of two thousand yuan a day, that was twenty thousand in ten days.

Gu Chen estimated, with the warning from that woman, they had at least sixty more days of operational life.

This period would be the internet café’s money-making phase.

In other words, Old Zhang could probably make around a hundred thousand or more in total.

While significant now, this hundred thousand was not enough to buy a very large house.

But this amount was not sufficient to sustain him for a lifetime.

Gu Chen was different. Aside from Old Zhang’s two computers,

there was another one at the bar.

Out of the total fifty-one computers, forty-eight were his gold-digging tools.

At an income of one hundred fifty thousand yuan per machine, these forty-eight could earn a total of six million!

With such earnings, Gu Chen could afford to spend for a lifetime.

However, the internet café was a long-term plan. Without considering these excessive profits, the café had a long life ahead.

After settling accounts with him, Gu Chen went to pick up Tangtang from kindergarten.

After getting Tangtang into the car, Gu Chen went shopping for various nutritious goods, all of them beneficial to health.

If described in four words, they would be "delicacies of every kind"!

All were extremely precious medicinal ingredients, none of them cheap.

Buying so many items cost Gu Chen just under a thousand yuan.

Of course, Tangtang now was oblivious to the value of money, not earning any herself.

In today’s society, it was uncertain how long an ordinary person would have to work to earn back a thousand yuan.

But Gu Chen didn’t blame Tangtang. After all, in her eyes, that was her friend, and how could they not be worth a thousand yuan?

Even though in this society, there are countless people who turn against each other over a thousand yuan.

Driving to the hospital, Tangtang couldn’t wait and rushed out of the car in a hurry.
