Chapter 75 - 74 Someone is Sneaking Food
Chapter 75: Chapter 74 Someone is Sneaking Food
Xu Mengqi, with her makeup impeccably done, got out of the taxi and kept patting her chest.
She felt her heart pounding erratically.
“To invite someone over to your house in the evening like this, huh~ If I don’t agree, will there be a cat performing a backflip?”
She had been imagining the whole way there.
Wondering if she should drink when Yang Genshuo offers her a drink… What if he takes the opportunity to confess his feelings while drunk… Should she play hard to get… and was she really going to stay the night… That would be too embarrassing… Luckily, she was on her safe days today…
As she pushed open the gate, the courtyard was already filled with various coolers stocked with alcoholic beverages and drinks; the center stage was taken by a large rotating barbecue grill, and there was an inflatable swimming pool filled with air. An open-air screen was set up and playing the always-entertaining “Let The Bullets Fly”.
The whole courtyard was meticulously arranged, with various light strips adorning the corners, even the Bentley Bentayga was wrapped with several rounds.
The entire space looked dazzling, oozing a bourgeois rock vibe.
Xu Mengqi looked at Yang Genshuo sitting under the pomegranate tree, tall and handsome with a smile on his face, wealthy and affluent.
Xu Mengqi’s face turned completely red, ready to agree to anything Yang Genshuo would say next.
“Meng Qi, you’re here! Just in time, the pool just got inflated. Go connect the hose and fill up the pool with water.”
“What?”
“Don’t just stand there, we’ve been busy half the day. You’re the last to arrive, quick, quick, quick, the party is about to start!”
At this moment, Lin Yue, a natural beauty without the need for makeup, emerged from the kitchen holding a plate of cut Spirit Fruit, placing it on the large table. When she saw Xu Mengqi, she smiled faintly, nodding as a greeting.
The girl’s unique youthful innocence, her extremely pure face, and her stunning figure even made Xu Mengqi, the former campus belle, do a double-take. Was this girl too beautiful?
But… why was there a third person?
Yang Genshuo, you player!?
Pah, shameless!
“I’m going to start with a bottle of sparkling wine, I’m too thirsty!” Cheng Bo bellowed as he emerged from the bathroom.
“Eh? A Taoist?”
“You… have heard my story?”
“I’ve heard your name…”
Xu Mengqi’s face flushed slightly; that man’s antics were also the talk of the women’s dormitory… and the stories were even more outrageous.
“All right, all right, as soon as Xiaozhi arrives, our party can start!”
At that moment, she fully understood that this was a small gathering hosted by Yang Genshuo, and while she felt a slight disappointment in her heart… she was also filled with anticipation.
Because these people all seemed so nice, being friends with Yang Genshuo seemed very enjoyable.
When the chef had finished roasting the rabbit and prepared eight dishes and a soup, Guo Xiaozhi finally arrived fashionably late.
With a height of 1.7 meters, he wasn’t tall, but he had a strong presence; he looked amiable at first glance, the kind of person you could easily trust.
Yang Genshuo came up and hugged Guo Xiaozhi.
“You’re the last to show up, you’ll have to drink three cups as punishment.”
“Hold on… I have a reason.”
“Did you go spending money again for the thrill of direct success?”
“Cough cough! Let’s not dwell on the past… I just traveled here by car from my hometown, it’s normal to be a bit late, right?”
“Hahaha~ Come on, come on, today we’re not going home until we’re drunk.”
The feeling of seeing good friends was something Yang Genshuo found hard to describe; speaking too emotionally would seem pretentious, but being too subdued would not capture the mood of the moment.
In any case… It felt like the whole world had become happier, time was passing faster than a game of Civilization!
In one evening, Yang Genshuo and the four others ate, drank, and played merrily together.
And Guo Xiaozhi, looking at the Bentley draped with lit light strips, had a complex expression on his face.
As childhood friends and business partners, he understood Yang Genshuo better than anyone else. Yang Genshuo didn’t like to pretend, if he dared park the car in his own yard, it proved that it was his.
Although he didn’t understand how Genshuo managed to earn money just two months after his business had gone under, he knew… Genshuo had taken off again, and this time he was soaring high.
The next day, sitting in the car on the way back, Guo Xiaozhi had a face full of melancholy.
He had just suddenly remembered a question he saw on Zhihu.
“If my childhood friend becomes successful and turns into a multimillionaire, how should we interact?”
The top-voted answer from netizens was, “He’s very unlikely to forget you, but you’re not in the same class anymore, and it’ll be difficult to hang out together in the future. However, if you ask him for help, he will definitely help you, but just this once, after which there will be no more relationship between you… Think carefully whether you want to use this precious favor for yourself or to pave a way for your child.”
At this moment, Guo Xiaozhi felt a thick barrier standing between himself and Genshuo…
Ding-a-ling~
His phone rang, a WeChat message from Yang Genshuo:
“You son of a gun, get your stuff ready and roll back here immediately, I’ve got a big job for you!”
Seeing the message, the melancholy on Guo Xiaozhi’s face was swept away, and he was invigorated.
“Damn! Damn damn damn damn damn! I just knew it, Genshuo, you couldn’t forget about me! You’re rich now and you’ve got to bring me along! Otherwise, I’ll haunt you like a ghost!”
Yang Genshuo: “You frickin’ lunatic!”
Putting down the phone, Yang Genshuo couldn’t help but laugh.
He knew Guo Xiaozhi very well, too. Their relationship went back so many years that they were almost like brothers. It was impossible for him to succeed and not give him a hand up.
Plus… Guo Xiaozhi had one great quality: he never pried into reasons. He just did the work, and he learned quickly.
He was an excellent executor.
Yang Genshuo needed someone to help him with his work, and Guo Xiaozhi was the best person for the job.
On his last trip to the United States, he realized… his ability to monetize was too weak, and every trip out meant wasted time that could have been spent closely watching the Yang Family in the game.
Rather than spreading himself thin, it was better to find someone to help him with his work.
He truly valued Guo Xiaozhi’s philosophy.
Use money to buy other people’s time to serve oneself.
If top-tier tycoons like Zhao Dalong had a need for tonics, were the bodies of other tycoons doing any better? Didn’t they want to live a few more years?
That lung that’s been smoking for 40 years, doesn’t it need some care?
The stomach that’s been drinking for 30 years and is perforated, doesn’t it need some nourishing?
The heart that suddenly skips a beat while asleep at night, doesn’t it need a boost in vitality?
If your life span is running out, don’t you want to see the world for a few more years?
Unburdened massive nourishment with pure herbal medicine, Wealthy Happiness Pills, you deserve to have them.
Besides making money… Yang Genshuo had also noticed a serious issue in the past few days.
The workshops of Red Maple Food Factory were monitored, and he could also see the workshop producing the Grain Avoidance Cake for him… The employees inside liked to eat the offcuts of the Grain Avoidance Cake when there was nothing else to do.
Line workers eating from their own production line was proof that the production process was very clean and hygienic, which was a good thing, but… this was Grain Avoidance Cake infused with spiritual energy, consuming it could gradually improve one’s health, and eating Spirit Food over the long term could extend life span.
Perhaps those employees were beginning to notice the difference in the Grain Avoidance Cake, as of late, they were eating it more frequently… The leftover offcuts, they would share them out and take them home after work.
This caused Yang Genshuo some concern, as there might be uncontrollable issues in the future.
He felt it was best to retain control over this production line himself.
Once Guo Xiaozhi arrived, he could help him handle these matters and put him in the spotlight to take all this on for him.
The rewards he could give Xiaozhi in the future would be more generous than he could imagine.
“Xiaozhi, come make money for me!”
