Chapter 698: 693 Vacation and buy some property on the side

Gucci had not been very involved with Ping’an Real Estate; he had only visited to check on the employees there.

He had no idea what the situation was like now.

He leisurely strolled around all day until the afternoon.

He Jingmei called him out.

The two of them agreed to meet at a café.

Of course, the café was Gu Chen’s Sitang Coffee.

After they met,

He Jingmei immediately asked Gu Chen, "How did it go last night, Gu-brother? Did you handle everything okay?"

"Of course, you helped me a great deal, thank you," Gu Chen was very polite in his response. However, the young girl seemed somewhat unhappy upon hearing this.

"Thank me for what? We’re practically family, your problems are my problems.

Besides, this issue is far from over. Those jerks can’t just come after you and not pay a price. It’s definitely not enough for them to just compensate with money; I’ve been thinking of a way to deal with it recently.

Haicheng is a bit tricky; there are too many people to connect with there, and it’s not a place just anyone can reach into."

He said this to Gu Chen very seriously.

It seemed like he had no intention of letting this matter slide.

"It might be too much trouble. Please don’t let my problems affect you, especially your brother. If it affects him, then it’s not worth it."

Gu Chen was very clear about his priorities. Right now, he was not worried about anything else but the possibility of his brother getting hurt while helping him; if that happened, he would be the one to blame.

"Don’t you worry at all, I know what I’m doing. Just watch how those guys won’t be able to do anything to my brother; I’ve contacted quite a few people yesterday."

He spoke to Gu Chen with great confidence, leaving Gu Chen unsure of what to say.

In fact, at that moment, Gu Chen felt somewhat embarrassed. To be honest, having a woman help him made him, a grown man, feel diminished.

"I truly appreciate it. I never expected you to go to such lengths to help me, and I don’t even know how to thank you."

"How about this, then? I’ll give you a one-fifth equity share of this bar."

Gu Chen spoke to her very earnestly,

He didn’t know how to express his gratitude or repay her.

So, he put forward a proposal, even if it might not be the best solution.

If worse came to worst, he could relinquish some of the bar’s equity shares.

That way, it would count as shared business.

But no sooner had Gu Chen said this than he immediately saw the girl’s face turn unwilling and unhappy, as if she had been offended by his suggestion.

"I came here to be friends with you, not to make a deal.

Why do you always have to think about all these complicated matters? Besides, you saved my father’s life; helping you a little is nothing in comparison.

If my grandpa found out about it, he would have told me to help you too."

After hearing her say this, Gu Chen didn’t know what else to say; he felt that if the conversation on this topic continued, the young girl would truly get angry.

"How about this, then? If you really want to thank me, I’ll give you the chance.

Spend the week shopping with me, and that’ll settle our accounts."

He Jingmei said cheekily to Gu Chen, but Gu Chen found the suggestion a bit strange.

Roaming the streets for a week seems a bit too long, doesn’t it?

"What’s the matter? If you’re not up for it, it’s fine to change the plan."

He was willing to discuss and bargain with Gu Chen about changing the plan.

After hearing this, Gu Chen shook his head and directly said, "Let’s just go with your plan."

He didn’t think much about it; he just felt like he was acting as an escort or something, which was a bit odd.

"That’s more like it. I really want to have some fun with you these days, and having you around eases my mind. After all, having a man by your side is definitely different from not having one."

When Gu Chen heard this, he was somewhat lost in thought. That sounded intriguing and somewhat logical.

And so, the two of them made up their minds.

Gu Chen didn’t know what to say; suddenly, he remembered something Old Yuan told him—it seemed like he was indeed lucky, always having someone willing to help him out no matter the circumstance.

They simply sat there chatting, and soon Gu Chen returned home. He still had to cook for Tang Tang.

Meanwhile, He Jingmei clearly had things to do; he seemed eager to make some calls or something, so he didn’t stay with Gu Chen for long before hurrying back to his hotel.

Gu Chen bought a bunch of groceries and went home planning to try making Coca-Cola chicken wings again.

If it went well, he’d add Coca-Cola chicken wings to the menu tomorrow.

When Tang Tang came home and saw Gu Chen there, her face lit up with joy.

"Daddy, you don’t have anything else today, can you stay home and keep me company?"

The little girl was so excited, it seemed like seeing Gu Chen had become a luxury, and Gu Chen was painfully aware of his shortcomings.

"Daddy doesn’t have much to do these days, I’ll be with you every day. But even if daddy gets busy later, I’ll try my best to come and spend time with you, okay?"

Gu Chen said with a smile, and the girl nodded hurriedly. But she spoke sensibly to Gu Chen:

"Daddy, if you’re really busy with work, don’t worry about Tang Tang. I’ll be good, listen to mommy at home, and won’t cause her any trouble,"

Seeing her so understanding melted Gu Chen’s heart.

Any man would find it hard to resist such an adorable daughter.

The more Tang Tang behaved like this, the more guilty Gu Chen felt.

"Daddy will do his best to be with you.

It’ll get warmer in a while, and we can go to the beach to play."

After Gu Chen said this, Tang Tang immediately became very curious.

"Which beach are we going to?" she asked Gu Chen.

"We’ll go to some coastal cities, and daddy will take you to eat seafood."

After finishing, Tang Tang’s curiosity was piqued, and she was eager too; she really wanted to go out and have fun.

"Are we really going out to play?" Ji Pianran asked from the side at that moment.

"Of course, I’ve already thought it through. It’s a perfect time to look at some seaside resorts. I plan to buy a few houses on the coast."

Gu Chen said this with nonchalance. After he finished, Ji Pianran didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Traveling and casually buying a few houses—it was an overwhelmingly dominant statement.

But remembering Gu Chen’s current financial status, she decided not to comment.
