Among the men and women walking towards them, Lu Xue was clearly visible.
Gu Wei hadn't expected to run into his ex-girlfriend, whom he hadn't seen for some time, and her colleagues at her company.
He glanced at it only once before looking away and continuing to walk forward.
Song Daming loathed Lu Xue, but he didn't stop walking.
Zhou Wenyi had met Lu Xue before and was deeply impressed by her, so she couldn't help but scrutinize her.
Unlike her innocent white dress look that night, today's outfit is a bit too sexy.
Lu Xue immediately recognized Zhou Wenyi as the woman who drove the Porsche that day.
And look, my best friend Song Daming is here too!
This suggests that Gu Wei and that vixen are very likely together!
How could she not harbor resentment and hate to the point of madness?
Unfortunately, the people around her were her superiors, colleagues, and clients. Even if she wanted to question them, she could only grit her teeth and hold back for the time being.
Although Jian Fei and Zuo Taiqing didn't know who Lu Xue was, they could tell from her ashen face.
A male colleague next to Lu Xue glanced at the group of people walking away and whispered, "Isn't that handsome guy your ex-boyfriend? He looks like he's doing pretty well!"
A female colleague who didn't usually get along with Lu Xue deliberately chimed in quietly, "Yeah, I heard you say before that he was unemployed and destitute, but he doesn't seem like it at all. He's wearing designer clothes and a luxury watch, and the girl next to him is carrying a limited edition Chanel bag!"
Faced with attacks from both sides by her colleagues, Lu Xue couldn't even manage a forced smile.
She knew that these dogs knew even less about Gu Wei winning over a million yuan than her colleagues, otherwise they would have ridiculed and mocked her even more.
Since she's having a hard time, nobody else should be doing well either...
Gu Wei had no idea that what would happen next from what was just a chance encounter.
He handed the shop over to Song Daming and a few others to run. Apart from showing up when he needed chefs to taste the dishes and being responsible for supplying ingredients, he didn't plan to get involved in anything else.
Later that evening, Gu Wei went to the renovation company.
The renderings of the villa are out.
After reviewing it, he made a few minor changes to the designer's instructions.
Then they agreed on a timeframe for the renovation.
When Gu Wei returned to the 84th area, it was already past 7 p.m.
As I passed by my neighbor's barbershop, I peeked inside and saw Liu Damei getting a perm, with several men and women waiting nearby.
There are also four or five customers in their own shop.
Gu Jianguo and his group entertained them.
Zhao Dajiang and Tang Jiamei were also there.
"Uncle Zhao, Aunt Zhao, you haven't gone back to the forest farm?"
Tang Jiamei said with a smile, "He didn't reply. Your Uncle Zhao is such an impatient person. He wouldn't do it if he didn't want to before, but once he decided to open a tailor shop, he was decisive and couldn't wait a moment longer. That's why we spent the whole day looking for a place at the Forestry Bureau."
Gu Wei had already experienced Zhao Dajiang's efficiency when he was contracting the land.
He couldn't help but laugh and ask, "Have you found a suitable one yet?"
Zhao Dajiang didn't care about his wife's complaints at all, and said with a smile, "There are actually two good places. But we can't make up our minds, so we'd like you to give us your advice."
Gu Wei readily agreed: "No problem. I'll go with you tomorrow if I have time."
"Okay. With you by our side, we feel more at ease."
Zhao Dajiang and Tang Jiamei both had great faith in Gu Wei.
Opening a shop and doing business is not an easy task. Having someone to help steer the ship is like having a backbone.
After chatting for a while, Gu Wei suddenly remembered something and pulled Zhao Dajiang outside the store to talk.
"Uncle Zhao, how do you make your tiger penis wine?"
Zhao Dajiang thought it was something serious, "You haven't even soaked those tiger penises and deer penises you collected?"
Gu Wei shook his head: "No. I was thinking of saving some up and then brewing them together."
Zhao Dajiang waved his hand and said, "Then leave this to me. Tomorrow I'll get some Chinese herbs and buy several dozen kilograms of top-quality liquor. I guarantee that when the liquor is opened, it will be just as effective as the one I had before..."
Gu Wei was overjoyed that the effects would continue to be maintained.
This medicinal wine isn't really wine, but it's all about the money.
"Uncle Zhao, tell me what Chinese medicines you have, and I'll write them down so I can buy them tomorrow."
"Okay, cinnamon, epimedium, and..."
As the two were talking, Hou Yongxian and Ke Yi hurried over.
They greeted each other familiarly.
Gu Weicai then learned that Gu Jianguo had introduced the two parties before he returned.
Zhao Dajiang quickly went into the store, called Tang Jiamei, and left.
Gu Wei then led Hou Yongxian and Ke Yi to the back room.
Upon entering the room, before even taking a seat, Hou Yongxian spoke first: "Gu Wei, I'm here to say goodbye. My train leaves tonight!"
Gu Wei was extremely surprised: "I didn't hear you say you were leaving this morning."
Hou Yongxian nodded: "Yes, I originally planned to stay with them a little longer before going out. But plans can't keep up with changes. I received news from the capital and have to go there to deal with it."
Hou Yongxian didn't elaborate on the specifics, and Gu Wei naturally wouldn't press him for details.
Although they are now in a cooperative relationship and have become closer due to increased contact, they still need to maintain a sense of propriety.
"Grandpa Hou, please be careful on your journey. As for Lin Hang and the others, we will help take care of them."
Hou Yongxian had been waiting for Gu Wei's words, and said with great gratitude, "With your help, I feel relieved. Also, I'll take Ke Yi with me this time."
Gu Wei smiled and said, "Grandpa Hou, do as you see fit."
After seeing the two off, Gu Wei went into the shop.
Gu Jianguo and the others asked curiously.
"Why is Grandpa Lin here again so late at night?"
Gu Wei ruffled Gu Hongjie's hair. "He said he had an urgent matter to attend to and would be taking the train tonight. He came over to give me a few words of advice."
"They left in such a hurry!"
"Who says it isn't?"
After everyone shared their thoughts, Gu Jianguo thought for a moment and then said, "Gu Wei, Lin Yu is a quick learner, efficient, and articulate. It doesn't seem right for her to just keep helping out every day for nothing. What are your plans?"
Gu Wei had already considered Lin Yu's situation.
The shop has Gu Jianguo and two others, plus one regular customer, which is not bad.
Anyway, according to the policy at the time, it was fine as long as the number of employees did not exceed eight.
"Ask her if she'd like to be like Yingzi."
Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi exchanged a smile and agreed.
"Let's ask her when she comes tomorrow."
Seeing that it was getting late, they then divided the tasks clearly and closed the shop.
Back in the back room, Li Guizhi handed over the day's revenue.
Although there were fewer customers than in the first two days after opening, Gu Wei was still quite satisfied.
With fewer customers, things will be easier for the grandparents.
In this lifetime, you can never earn enough money, so there's no need to work so hard.
