From beginning to end, Gao Mei never considered establishing a romantic relationship with Li Xiaogang.
She only had two things on her mind.
First, she wanted to extract as much benefit as possible from Li Xiaogang; second, she wanted to sow discord between Li Xiaogang and Chen Feng to avenge the humiliation Chen Feng had caused her.
But Li Xiaogang asked her to visit her hospitalized mother?
Putting aside the fact that her visit would confirm her status as Li Xiaogang's girlfriend, she couldn't possibly go to the hospital to visit a patient empty-handed, could she?
Wouldn't that mean spending money before even getting any benefits?
Gao Meicai would never do a deal that loses money!
"Why...why do you have that expression?"
Li Xiaogang asked with dissatisfaction, "Do you dislike me? Or do you dislike my mother?"
"I...I..."
Just as Gao Mei was racking her brains for a reply, Chen Feng arrived.
You don't seem to be having a good time.
Chen Feng sat down opposite Li Xiaogang and asked with a smile, "What did you talk about? Tell me quickly so I can have a good laugh."
"you……"
Gao Mei was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode.
She could tell that Chen Feng's smile was genuine.
"Chen Feng, please stop joking."
Gao Mei moved closer to Li Xiaogang, saying, "Xiaogang and I have a great relationship, how could we be unhappy?"
Weren't you happy to see that Li Xiaogang and I had a falling out?
Then I'll deliberately make things difficult for you!
Unfortunately, Chen Feng, who had lived two lives, was not so easily defeated.
"Since you two have such a good relationship, let's go to Xijing Hospital together to visit Old Li's mother later."
Chen Feng lit a cigarette, puffed out smoke, and said, "Auntie will definitely be very happy to see her future daughter-in-law."
Gao Mei glanced at Li Xiaogang subconsciously.
For a moment, she even wondered if Li Xiaogang and Chen Feng had conspired together.
Otherwise, how could Chen Feng and Li Xiaogang be so in sync?
"No...it's not that I don't want to go, it's just that Xiaogang and I haven't known each other for very long, and I'm not ready to meet his parents yet."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaogang's grim expression immediately eased somewhat.
I'm not ready to meet your parents yet...
This kind of nonsense about burning newspapers at graves is actually a good way for innocent young men to comfort themselves.
However, while Li Xiaogang was easy to fool, Chen Feng was someone who wouldn't tolerate any nonsense.
"It's fine if I don't meet the parents."
Chen Feng squinted and said, "I heard from Lao Li that you're not his girlfriend yet?"
"Why don't you two officially become a couple?"
"Since you two have such a good relationship, you should have made this preparation, right?"
Li Xiaogang stared intently at Gao Mei, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Gao Mei's breath hitched, and she quickly changed the subject, "Chen Feng, actually, Xiao Gang has something important to tell you about inviting you over for dinner today."
She was scared.
She continued to be led by the nose by Chen Feng, and heaven knows what kind of pit he would lead her into.
"oh?"
Chen Feng raised an eyebrow. "What important matter?"
"Xiao Gang has been facing financial difficulties lately."
Gao Mei said calmly, "So, he wants to borrow some money from you."
Why didn't he tell me himself?
Chen Feng instinctively felt wary of Gao Mei.
"He was too embarrassed to say it, so I spoke for him."
As if she had already guessed that Chen Feng would ask this question, Gao Mei answered without thinking.
"Really?"
Chen Feng looked at Li Xiaogang.
"Old Chen, I..."
Li Xiaogang originally wanted to say that he had no intention of borrowing money.
Even when it came to buying a birthday gift for the girl he loved, he didn't want to borrow money from Chen Feng.
After all, Chen Feng had already given him more than enough help.
If he owes Chen Feng another favor, how will he ever repay it?
Before Li Xiaogang could finish speaking, Gao Mei hugged his arm again.
"..."
The familiar softness and warmth made Li Xiaogang momentarily lose his composure.
However, Chen Feng interpreted Li Xiaogang's reaction in a different light.
Chen Feng mistakenly believed that what Gao Mei said was true.
That makes sense when you think about it.
Li Xiaogang's mother is at Xijing Hospital, and right now she needs money.
It's perfectly normal for him to ask himself for help.
"Damn it, why didn't you ask for money earlier? You had to wait until I sat down to ask. Aren't you just deliberately messing with me?"
After saying that, Chen Feng got up and left the hot pot restaurant.
Only after Chen Feng's figure completely disappeared did Li Xiaogang come to his senses.
Why did Old Chen leave?
"Hmph, why do you think so?"
Gao Mei let go of his hand and said with a disdainful expression, "Of course it's because he doesn't want to lend you money!"
"impossible!"
Li Xiaogang shook his head like a rattle-drum, "Old Chen is my best brother. I know him. He must have suddenly encountered something important."
There's one more thing Li Xiaogang didn't say.
That is to say, others may not know how wealthy Chen Feng is, but he knows it all too well.
How could a reclusive tycoon with tens of millions in assets get up and leave just because his good friend asked him to borrow 4,000 yuan?
Isn't this a complete fantasy?
"Good brother, good brother, don't you blush when you mention that word?"
Gao Mei glared angrily at Li Xiaogang, "He drives a luxury car worth millions and talks about investments worth millions, but he won't even lend you a few thousand yuan. Is this what you call a good brother?"
"Senior Gao Mei, you've misunderstood."
Li Xiaogang continued to argue, "Old Chen isn't a petty person, he..."
