Gu Wei and Song Daming last met two days before the Lunar New Year.
Now that we've met, we have so much to talk about.
Therefore, the passage of time is ignored.
Gu Wei glanced at his watch casually and suddenly remembered that he had an appointment with someone.
"I have something to take care of in a bit. Let's find somewhere to eat later. Are you staying at the shop to wait for me, or going home?"
Song Daming said decisively, "Let's go home. You can pick me up then, and we can bring down the local specialties, the braised food my mom made for you, and the fried egg sauce."
Gu Wei paused in his grabbing of the coat, his expression somewhat subtle. "You brought sauce back from all this way?"
"Hmm, I remember, didn't you say that the egg sauce my mom makes tastes just like the one your grandpa makes...?"
Song Daming will never forget the time when Gu Wei ate the egg sauce his mother made and his eyes welled up with tears after returning to school one winter vacation.
So he figured his good buddy was now rich and had everything he needed, and probably just craved that taste from his memories.
Gu Wei felt a warmth in his heart.
Some images from my memories flashed through my mind.
However, he could not reveal to Song Daming that he could eat his grandfather's cooking anytime, anywhere in another time and space.
"Please thank Auntie for me."
Afterwards, Song Daming quickly distributed the pine nuts, smoked meat, and other local specialties he had brought to everyone.
Zhou Wenyi knew that haste makes waste, so she gazed tenderly at Gu Wei standing at the door.
Gu Wei naturally noticed Zhou Wenyi's somewhat intense gaze.
A slight smile played on his lips, and he felt inexplicably pleased.
The two quickly walked outside the store.
Gu Wei unlocked the car at the parking spot.
Song Daming stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
He glanced at the white sports car just a few steps away, then at the composed Gu Wei.
It took me a long time to find my voice again.
"Holy crap! A sports car? When did you buy it?"
Gu Wei flicked the car keys in his hand, naturally unable to tell the truth, and said ambiguously, "Some time ago."
"Awesome!"
Song Daming was unable to describe his feelings at that moment in words.
He rushed to the sleek sports car, circling it from all sides, reaching out to touch it but not daring to.
Gu Wei fully understood Song Daming's series of actions.
Which man doesn't dream of owning a sports car?
Feeling that it was about time, Gu Wei moved his head and gestured to him, "Get in the car."
"Alright!" Song Daming opened the passenger side door, unable to contain his excitement.
Gu Wei suppressed a laugh and got into the car.
After the car drove away, Song Daming exclaimed sincerely, "Dude, you really dare to spend money!"
He works in the store, so of course he knows how much revenue they generate in a month.
Since opening, business has been booming, and Gu Wei has made a lot of money.
But to everyone's surprise, instead of buying a house, this guy bought a second car.
Gu Wei glanced at him sideways and said matter-of-factly, "Isn't the point of making money to spend it?"
Song Daming pursed his lips. "That's true, but cars don't hold their value as well as houses. Haven't you thought about buying a house?"
Gu Wei stared straight ahead and lied through his teeth, "I don't have that plan for the time being. Anyway, I'm single now, and the prices have dropped quite a bit recently."
Song Daming nodded. "That's true. If the timing isn't right, we might lose money, so it's better not to buy for now. When I brought Tongtong home this time, my parents actually suggested selling our old house to help us raise money for the down payment, but I refused. Having a loan for decades and having to pay the bank every day when I wake up is too much pressure."
Gu Wei felt that Song Daming's thinking was quite clear. "Indeed, we are only in our twenties, there is no need to put so much pressure on ourselves."
The car soon arrived at the staff dormitory building.
Song Daming got off the car.
Gu Wei waved to him before driving away.
Song Daming stood there, staring at the car's taillights disappearing from sight, a complex expression on his face...
When Gu Wei arrived at the agreed location, half of the coffee in front of Zhong Xiang had already disappeared.
"Sorry, Brother Zhong, there's a bit of traffic on the way."
"It's alright, bro."
Zhong Xiang waved and called over the service staff.
Gu Wei ordered a latte.
After everyone left, Gu Wei didn't say anything more and placed the box containing the wild ginseng on the table.
"Brother Zhong, take a look."
"good."
Zhong Xiang opened the box with shining eyes and took out his small tools to examine them.
After the coffee was served, Gu Wei took a few sips, and then Zhong Xiang finished as well.
"Brother, this wild ginseng is indeed of excellent quality. Let's proceed as we agreed beforehand..."
Gu Wei put down his white porcelain coffee cup and said calmly, "Okay."
The two then quickly completed the transaction.
Before parting, Zhong Xiang placed a black zippered tote bag that was on the chair next to him on the table. "These are some small gifts that I specially brought back from abroad. I don't know if you young people will like them."
"Brother Zhong, you're too kind."
Gu Wei knew that Zhong Xiang genuinely wanted to give it to him, so he accepted it without much hesitation.
Anyway, there's plenty of time in the future, and the two of them will have frequent interactions.
On the road.
While waiting at a red light, Gu Wei picked up the bag on the seat next to him and started looking through it.
Then they discovered that inside was a men's watch, a bottle of women's perfume, two Swiss Army knives, and a lot of beautifully packaged chocolates.
Gu Wei couldn't help but chuckle.
He was certain that the perfume in the bottle had been added later.
