Chapter 886: 881 Haicheng Hao Meili

No matter the age, as long as one starts playing, they would almost certainly become thoroughly addicted.

That’s the magic of games, and also the reason they have long been criticized.

Especially in today’s society, the tolerance for gaming isn’t that high.

So often, when people encounter gamers, they first show some lack of understanding.

But soon, when the internet cafes were completely taken over by the street ruffians,

everyone started to view gaming as something only the utterly worthless people in society would do.

At this moment, Gu Chen spoke to them with considerable equanimity.

"I’ll go cook now. You guys keep playing here, and remember to come eat later," he said.

Gu Chen said this and, without waiting for any response from them, he simply left.

He still had to cook first. The most important thing was to have the meal ready.

If he didn’t cook, he feared they might starve to death.

"Thank you, Dad."

Tangtang said this to Gu Chen very playfully at that moment.

Facing her, Gu Chen could only show a sense of helplessness; there was nothing he could do.

In the time that followed, Gu Chen began to actively prepare the meal.

He was experienced and knew all the steps.

After the meal was ready, Gu Chen directly called them over to eat.

When the whole family was about to sit down for the meal, Gu Chen had something he wanted to say...

However, their mother and daughter duo were chatting and discussing things here.

They seemed very happy, and just when the wine had made three rounds and the various flavors of the meal had been savored,

Gu Chen continued to address the mother and daughter.

"I’ll need to go to Haicheng to look into the new store in a while, so when I’m gone, you two stay at home and behave. Don’t go causing any trouble for me," Gu Chen said to them.

Upon hearing this, both nodded.

Tangtang seemed somewhat oblivious as to what exactly Gu Chen was going to do.

Therefore, her face was filled with nothing but bewilderment.

However, Ji Pianran, upon hearing this, seemed to understand what Gu Chen meant.

She nodded very normally, assuring Gu Chen that he could rest easy and do whatever he needed to do.

With their assurance, Gu Chen could leave with peace of mind.

He wasn’t worried about anything else, just that something might happen at home during this time.

His biggest concern was about Tangtang’s health; he would be most worried if she showed any signs of discomfort.

So he decided before leaving, to take care of all that needed to be done.

For instance, preparing several dosages of traditional Chinese medicine. By having them ready,

it would save some time, and Ji Pianran would only need to ensure Tangtang took her medicine regularly each day.

It wouldn’t be too troublesome.

These were the simple thoughts in Gu Chen’s mind at that moment.

Upon hearing this, Ji Pianran simply nodded and didn’t say much.

For Ji Pianran, this task was well within her capabilities; she had frequently assisted Gu Chen before.

She knew Gu Chen was opening a new store, and it was all for the sake of their home.

If it wasn’t for their household, Gu Chen wouldn’t need to venture out and tend to these businesses.

She knew Gu Chen had it tough, so she very much understood him.

At this time, Gu Chen briefly went over household matters with the two of them.

In the end, he planned to leave just like that.

There was no need to linger here. After all, he had said everything that needed to be said.

What the mother and daughter duo planned to do at home was now entirely up to them.

That night, the two of them, worn out from playing, simply went to sleep.

Gu Chen stayed up preparing two pots of Chinese medicine, as Chinese medicine must not be skipped for even a moment.

After finishing with the medicine, Gu Chen truly felt a weight lifted off his chest.

"With this dosage, Tangtang’s health should be completely stabilized, right?"

Even if something unexpected happens, this dosage should be more than enough.

Having sorted this out, Gu Chen knew she could head to Haicheng with peace of mind.

She felt this matter required some urgency.

After all, someone was waiting for the daily necessities to hit the pot.

If she didn’t start making money, he would certainly not be at ease.

Gu Chen saw the situation very clearly.

She knew exactly what was on her mind.

When morning came the next day, Gu Chen planned to get straight out of bed.

Lingering at home was a waste of time she couldn’t afford.

Early in the morning, she went straight to the airport and booked the soonest flight to Haicheng.

If she could get there sooner, she wouldn’t delay any longer.

By noon, she arrived in Haicheng just as she had anticipated.

Once in Haicheng,

she immediately called that beautiful lady.

Gu Chen’s impression of the beautiful lady was still very strong.

The betting agreement last time sounded like a joke,

but it was indeed quite interesting, and since leaving Haicheng, she lost count of how long it had been since they last saw each other.

After her call went through,

the beautiful lady on the other end seemed a bit slow to react.

But once she confirmed it was Gu Chen calling,

she was overjoyed and asked Gu Chen to wait right where she was.

She was coming to pick her up.

Facing such enthusiasm, Gu Chen didn’t know whether to cry or laugh,

because she was just too adorable.

And so, Gu Chen quietly waited outside.

It wasn’t long before the lady appeared in front of her.

Today, she wore a black, chic suit,

looking every bit the professional as if she had just been at work.

She had evidently rushed back just for Gu Chen.

Seeing her, Gu Chen also offered a smile.

Upon seeing Gu Chen, she exhibited the kind of joy one shows when meeting a long-lost old friend,

and was very enthusiastic.

Then she directly started to speak to Gu Chen,

"Why haven’t you visited since last time? It seems like there’s a distance between us. Are you perhaps dissatisfied with my service last time?"

She spoke surprisingly to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen had not expected her to say such a thing and was indeed taken aback.

There was no matter of service or not last time.

Hearing her spin the situation to become so awkward,

even made Gu Chen feel somewhat uncomfortable.

She was caught between laughter and tears at the moment.

"Don’t talk nonsense, none of what you said is true.

It was merely making a new friend, and look how complicated you’re making things,"

Gu Chen said to her directly.

After hearing Gu Chen’s response, there was a slight lift at the corner of her mouth,

as if she hadn’t expected such words to come from Gu Chen.
