Chapter 640: Six hundred thirty-three, less contact less communication.

After arriving at the private room upstairs, the surroundings instantly quieted down.

At this moment, President Xiao Tian took a long breath and said to Gu Chen, "Boss Gu, I didn’t expect your bar to be quite so thrilling."

Even though he was only seated downstairs for less than half an hour, he still felt somewhat drawn into the atmosphere from before.

If it weren’t for Gu Chen inviting him to the private room, at this moment, he might have truly integrated with the guests below.

"The charm of this bar is in its dimness and noise; here, everyone can vent, and by venting, I do not mean in the manner of nightclubs.

For example, under the loud music, if someone wants to communicate, they have to speak up, and when people raise their voices, adrenaline surges and they become more excited."

Gu Chen briefly explained to President Xiao Tian, who then understood his meaning.

"Boss Gu, you really are well-researched. Otherwise, how could you have opened the first internet café and conducted so many prosperous businesses here in Chuan City," he said, very politely, to Gu Chen.

Even his gaze carried a measure of respect when he looked at Gu Chen.

It was evident that President Xiao Tian’s admiration was not feigned but genuinely heartfelt.

"I’m lucky that Director Wu gave me this call today; otherwise, I would have had no chance to make your acquaintance, Boss Gu. We are truly kindred spirits meeting too late. I admire scholars of broad knowledge the most," he said to Gu Chen with a smile, as if he was just a step away from swearing brotherhood with Gu Chen then and there.

Gu Chen responded directly, "I am indeed sorry to have bothered you at such a late hour."

"Don’t say that, Boss Gu. Since you’re a friend of Director Wu, you’re a friend of mine, Tian Bin. From now on, there’s no you or me between us; I see you’re a few years older than me, so I’ll address you as ’brother,’ and you can just call me Xiao Tian, just like Director Wu," he told Gu Chen, and within a few words, they became brothers.

Gu Chen didn’t refuse when he heard this.

It wasn’t for any other reason but the fact that in this society, as the saying goes, more friends mean more paths, more enemies mean more walls.

Making friends with Tian Bin could make things much easier if any issues arose in the future.

"Here’s the plan, Boss Gu. It’s getting rather late today. I won’t overstay my welcome. We’ll arrange another day when I can host, and we’ll have a proper drink," he said to Gu Chen, ready to take his leave.

Gu Chen did not try to keep him but escorted him all the way outside the bar.

After he left, Gu Chen turned and glanced at Wei Dahong and her companions.

Wei Dahong, full of curiosity, asked Gu Chen, "Director Gu, is everything settled now?"

"It’s settled. That guy shouldn’t be coming back, but you all should still be careful when you go out. I can’t be sure whether he might try to seek revenge or anything," Gu Chen told Wei Dahong.

Wei Dahong nodded in agreement. After so many years in society, she knew how to ensure her own safety.

Then, Gu Chen prepared to leave the bar immediately. He hadn’t slept well the entire day.

However, as soon as he got in his car, he suddenly remembered he had been drinking with Tian Bin while at the bar.

Clearly, he was in no condition to drive home now and would just have to make do in his car for the night.

He slowly reclined the backrest of the car seat and then closed his eyes, ready to sleep.

Just at that moment, the window was suddenly tapped.

Gu Chen raised his head and saw that it was Wu Dazhu!

Gu Chen opened the door, looking curiously at Wu Dazhu, surprised to find him here.

"Get in and we’ll talk," said Wu Dazhu without any preamble, heading straight for the passenger seat and sitting down.

Gu Chen closed the door and curiously looked at Wu Dazhu.

"Brother Zhu Zi, when did you get here?" he asked curiously.

"Didn’t he just get here a little while ago, and now Tian Bin has left?" Wu Dazhu said.

"Yes, he left after having a few drinks," Gu Chen replied.

"What did he talk to you about?"

"Nothing much, just chatted about this and that, then exchanged a few pleasantries."

After these few simple sentences, Wu Dazhu fell silent for a moment.

Then he said, "When you’re dealing with him, remember to be careful, the guy often speaks off the cuff.

"He’s not the type to do anything without seeing a benefit first, so it’s best if you don’t have anything to do with him in the future.

"If it weren’t for today’s matter being so thorny, I wouldn’t have thought to call him."

Wu Dazhu warned Gu Chen like this.

Gu Chen, upon hearing this, didn’t feel any surprise.

From the start, he had no intention of involving himself too much with Tian Bin.

Gu Chen wasn’t foolish, knowing a person like Tian Bin, who had clawed his way up in society, would have more tricks up his sleeve than anyone.

The more he interacted with him, the more Gu Chen feared getting himself ensnared.

"Of course, if you really find yourself in an urgent situation, then go look for him."

"If he asks you to do something, and it’s difficult to handle, just tell me. I have ways to deal with him."

Wu Dazhu continued to instruct Gu Chen.

After hearing this, Gu Chen nodded and said, "Don’t worry, I understand everything."

"Then I’m taking off now?" said Wu Dazhu as he prepared to get out of the car.

But Gu Chen quickly stopped him.

"Brother Zhu Zi, let’s go together. I’ve been drinking and can’t drive."

Afterwards, he hitched a ride with Wu Dazhu and they both headed towards his home.

When he got back home, he saw that Ji Pianran hadn’t gone to bed, it looked like she had been sitting there waiting for Gu Chen.

Seeing Gu Chen return, Ji Pianran immediately stood up from the sofa.

Then she hurried over and asked Gu Chen, "How did it go? Was there any trouble?"

She asked Gu Chen like this.

Hearing this, Gu Chen smiled and said, "Nothing’s wrong, what could have happened? Next time, you should go to bed earlier."

Seeing Gu Chen unscathed, Ji Pianran finally let herself relax completely.

She had been truly worried.

After returning to the bedroom, Ji Pianran spoke again, "Tang Tang has been asking for daddy nonstop recently, and you’re hardly ever around. Will Tang Tang still be able to see you in the future?"

"It’ll be better after this period is over."

"By the way, didn’t Tang Tang say she wanted to go hiking? Let’s take her next Sunday."

Gu Chen suddenly suggested this, catching Ji Pianran by surprise.

"Hiking? Really?" She couldn’t understand why Gu Chen would suddenly want to go hiking.

"Of course, it’s real," he assured her.

The main reason he wanted to hike now was because he knew he’d be too busy later and wouldn’t have any time left.
