Chapter 1763: Have Night Snacks Together
Except for Zhang Zikai, they all drove a sports car, but Gu Ning drove at the front and the speed of her car was within the limited range.
Therefore, even though Cao Yang and his friends were used to driving very fast, none of them overtook Gu Ning. The current speed was too low in their eyes, but they still followed behind Gu Ning although they knew the address of the food street.
They didn’t want to leave a bad impression on Gu Ning. Because Gu Ning limited the speed of her car within the range, it meant that she was willing to obey the traffic rules. Since Gu Ning was their idol, they must follow the rules too.
It took them about 40 minutes to get back to the city, and they stopped their cars outside the food street and got out together.
Seeing Gu Ning, Cao Yang and his friends were excited, not only because of her unbelievable achievements, but also because of her outstanding appearance. Their hearts pounded when they saw her.
However, they only took Gu Ning as their friend, because she held a very high position in their hearts. She was their idol and G.o.ddess. They couldn’t and shouldn’t have a dirty mind before her. Moreover, they were already satisfied to become her friends.
They were from rich families and they were good-looking too, but they still thought that Gu Ning was way out of their league.
“What do you want to have?” Gu Ning asked Cao Yang and his friends.
“We aren’t picky. G.o.ddess Gu, you can make the decision,” said Cao Yang. He didn’t care about what he ate, just whom he ate with.
Since he said that, Gu Ning didn’t bother to ask them again. She told Chu Peihan to make the decision, because she wasn’t picky either.
“Let’s go have seafood!” Chu Peihan proposed. Only seafood was expensive among night snacks, and she knew that Gu Ning loved eating seafood. They loved it too.
“Sure, I know a delicious seafood restaurant. If you don’t have any other preference, I can take you there,” said Cao Yang. He looked excited as well, and it was obvious that he was a seafood lover.
“We’re not familiar with here, so you can lead the way,” said Gu Ning.
After that, they followed Cao Yang, walking ahead while chatting with each other.
“Oh, G.o.ddess Gu, what has the man named Mingzhe done that annoyed you?” Cao Yang asked with curiosity.
“He was the boyfriend of a friend of my friend. He cheated on the girl, and had an argument with the girl on the street one night. I saw them by chance and beat him afterwards. Then he challenged me to have a car race, trying to take revenge” said Gu Ning. She didn’t bother to keep it secret, but didn’t tell any details.
“What? He’s a terrible trash man! I don’t think it’s enough to beat him. How did he dare to take revenge?” Cao Yang showed disdain on his face; he really hated people like that.
Not every rich heir was a sn.o.bbish playboy. Although Cao Yang and his friends loved hanging around, they were only interested in cars and drinks and they had never betrayed any girls before.
Before long, they arrived at the seafood restaurant Cao Yang told them about.
It was a large restaurant and was quite popular. It was almost full of people inside. There were about 30 tables and only 4 were vacant.
It was still early, not even 10 pm yet, so it wasn’t the rush hour for night snacks. If they came later, there would be no vacant seats at all.
“Oh, hi, Lord Cao, come on in!”
When Gu Ning and the others walked over, the owner of the restaurant greeted Cao Yang with enthusiasm.
It seemed that the owner was very familiar with Cao Yang, so Cao Yang must be a regular customer.
Cao Yang was indeed a regular customer, because he loved eating seafood and he could have delicious seafood here.
“Hey, are there any private rooms left?” asked Cao Yang.
“Sure, there’s just one left,” said the owner and guided Cao Yang and his friends inside.
After seating themselves, Gu Ning told them to order whatever they liked.
They didn’t hesitate, and ordered their favorites.
After all, Cao Yang and his friends left twenty thousand yuan to Chu Peihan. No matter how much they ate, it couldn’t cost more than several thousand yuan, so they weren’t worried about the money at all. Besides, they disliked being indecisive.
“There are many orders tonight, so I’m afraid you need to wait for a while longer,” said the owner.
They were totally fine with it, because it was very normal.
When they were waiting, they began to chat again.
From their casual chat, Gu Ning learned that Cao Yang and his friends were juniors in a university, and were about to graduate. They would have an interns.h.i.+p in the fourth year.
As for their family background, they didn’t elaborate on that. Gu Ning only knew that the four of them were from a business family, and were going to inherit their family business in the future.
Speaking of that, they looked upset, because all of them loved freedom and didn’t want to be restricted.
Knowing that, Gu Ning had no intention to educate them, but she still gave them advice. “You’re still very young, so you love hanging around, but it costs money. You’re using your parents’ money right now, so you don’t feel stressed at all. What will you do when your parents are old? Do you think you can still afford your free life without their support? The compet.i.tion in business is very serious nowadays, and countless companies are established and go bankrupt every day. They go bankrupt not because they don’t make money, but because they are replaced. You must be clear about that.”
Hearing that, Cao Yang and his friends remained silent. What she said wasn’t strange to them, because their parents always said the same thing to them, but they never took it seriously. However, when Gu Ning said that to them, they somehow felt it was quite reasonable.
Gu Ning continued, “Take myself as an example, I’m only 19 and I should be enjoying my life as a student, but I’m not. If I do nothing right now, I’ll be poor forever. I won’t be able to afford beautiful clothes or a good university. I had a car accident about a year ago, but my family couldn’t afford the surgery. No one was willing to lend us money except my aunt. My aunt wasn’t rich, but she gave me and my mother all her savings. She only had a few thousand yuan, which was barely enough. Luckily, I survived, and I made up my mind from that moment to work hard and make a fortune. I don’t want my mother to have a tiring job again. I don’t want myself to withdraw from the school. I don’t want us to lack money for seeing a doctor again.”
Cao Yang and his friends were shocked. They couldn’t believe that Gu Ning used to live such a pathetic life. Now she lived a totally different life.
If they didn’t have money, they couldn’t have fun around the world and couldn’t even see a doctor if they were sick.
