"Fortunately, their efficiency is not too slow."
Chen Feng said calmly, "Old Li, check your text messages."
Li Xiaogang continued to stare blankly at Gao Mei, as if he hadn't heard Chen Feng's words.
"Are you stupid?"
Chen Feng stepped up to Li Xiaogang and gently nudged him, saying, "Quickly check who sent the text message."
"Let whoever loves whom be."
Li Xiaogang looked utterly dejected. "I don't want to watch it."
"Grass!"
Chen Feng panicked and reached into Li Xiaogang's pocket, pulling out his phone.
"You'll have to watch it today, whether you like it or not!"
As he spoke, Chen Feng placed his phone in front of Li Xiaogang.
"Old Chen, I really'm not in the mood to argue with you right now, I..."
Li Xiaogang abruptly stopped speaking halfway through his sentence.
His face, which had been filled with despair, gradually disappeared. His eyes widened, his pupils contracted sharply, and astonishment in his eyes surged like a tidal wave.
Seeing this, Gao Mei, who was originally planning to leave, suddenly became curious.
"Li Xiaogang, who sent this text message?"
Gao Mei asked in a deep voice.
Li Xiaogang was clearly still immersed in his grief and couldn't pull himself out of it, so how come he seemed like a completely different person after seeing the text message?
"bank……"
Li Xiaogang answered instinctively.
"Oh, it's a bank."
Gao Mei gave a cold smile, but the next second, she realized something was wrong.
She has also received quite a few text messages from the bank.
Aside from balance change notifications, there are only promotional advertisements for wealth management products.
Why does Li Xiaogang have that expression?
What was the content of the text message?
Gao Mei continued to ask.
"The text message said that Lao Chen... Lao Chen transferred some money to my account."
"Um?"
Gao Mei was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chen Feng and asked, "Did you just transfer money to Li Xiaogang?"
Chen Feng nodded. "Yes."
When he heard that his good friend wanted to borrow money, how could he hesitate?
Fortunately, there was an ATM near the hot pot restaurant, and he remembered Li Xiaogang's bank account number. After doing some operations, he called the bank manager as a VIP customer and asked him to expedite the process. Only then did Li Xiaogang receive a notification that the funds had been deposited into his account.
Gao Mei's face suddenly turned pale. She hadn't expected that Chen Feng wasn't a miser, but was actually willing to lend money to Li Xiaogang.
But what about myself?
They had already declared they would never see each other again, but in the end, the "fish" that had been removed from the fishpond was now getting meat again?
"Xiao Gang..."
Gao Mei's tone softened considerably, "How much money did Chen Feng borrow from you?"
"One...one hundred..."
Perhaps he hadn't recovered from the heartbreak, or perhaps he was moved by his good friend's generosity; in any case, Li Xiaogang's voice trembled slightly, and he could barely speak.
"one hundred?"
Gao Mei was first taken aback, then let out a long breath, and finally burst into laughter.
Haha! Hahahaha!
"You two are really something. One of you sneaked out mysteriously and didn't come back for ages, while the other was staring at the payment confirmation message, lost in thought..."
"I thought it was a huge sum of money, but it turns out it's only a hundred yuan?"
"You guys are really good brothers."
"They all love to be so mysterious and pretentious!"
After saying that, Gao Mei stood up and said, "You guys continue eating, I'm leaving."
"Senior Gao Mei, you've misunderstood."
Li Xiaogang pursed his lips. "Old Chen didn't lend me a hundred yuan, but... a million!"
Gao Mei's raised foot was suspended in mid-air, but she couldn't bring it down.
"What did you say? Chen Feng lent you a million?"
"Stop joking!"
"That joke of yours is not funny at all!"
In Gao Mei's opinion, so-called brotherhood is utter nonsense.
Otherwise, how could she have seen so many sworn brothers fighting over her, or even turning against each other?
"I'm not joking. If you don't believe me, see for yourself."
Li Xiaogang shoved the phone screen right in front of Gao Mei's eyes.
"This...this is actually real...it really is one million!"
Seeing the long string of "0"s on the text message, Gao Meiren was horrified.
Even though Chen Feng is quite wealthy, his money didn't come from thin air.
That's a whole million! And they just lent it to Li Xiaogang like that?
Is Chen Feng an idiot?
Isn't he afraid that Li Xiaogang won't pay it back?
"This million is a loan, and it needs to be repaid."
A moment later, Gao Mei said through gritted teeth.
It was both a reminder to Li Xiaogang and a consolation to myself.
Li Xiaogang isn't really that successful anymore; cleaning him out of the "fishpond" isn't a loss for me.
"Hehe, Senior Gao Mei really has a bad memory."
Before anyone knew it, Chen Feng had already sat back down in his seat, taking a bite of mutton and a sip of iced cola, his mouth greasy with oil.
“I’ve said it before, with me around, Lao Li’s net worth will reach a million in no time.”
Upon hearing this, Gao Mei was visibly stunned.
What do you mean by that?
"What else could it mean?"
Chen Feng shrugged. "That million was a gift I gave to Lao Li. He doesn't need to pay it back."
"No need...he still wants it?"
"Yes, it's not just that this one million doesn't need to be repaid."
Chen Feng said to himself, "In the future, Old Li will have countless millions."
"Why?"
Gao Mei asked incredulously, "Why would you do this?"
"Because he is my good brother."
