Chapter 67: Conversation with Pangzi

  Since being economically sanctioned by his family, Fatty has visibly lost some weight in recent days. However, Fatty's face is beaming with joy because he was planning to lose weight anyway.

  I found Fatso and handed him a cigarette "You've been looking so happy lately, is there something good going on?"

  "Hey, Brother Jie, what good things can I have?" Fatso hehe'd with a smile, saying nothing.

  I knew that Sun Yunyun was still in contact with Paozi, and Cao Na's breakup with me must have been known to Sun Yunyun for sure. I thought Sun Yunyun would come to find me, but unexpectedly, she didn't.

  Although I felt somewhat depressed in my heart, I soon let it go. As long as Sun Yunyun can be happy, I will bless her with anyone.

  "Fatty, I heard you have a good relationship with Huang Hai?" I steered the conversation to Huang Hai "What does he do?"

  Every time he sat as the banker, he could collect 50,000 to 60,000 yuan in bets from the other side of the Huang Hai. If Huang Hai didn't have 100,000 yuan on him, these people definitely wouldn't hand over their money first.

  A high school student with a five-digit operating fund is no ordinary person.

  "Huang Hai? Brother Jie, has Huang Hai offended you in some way?" Fatso asked me with some curiosity.

  "He hasn't offended me, I'm just curious about his identity. You say he's a student, yet he dares to sit in such a big villa. It's said that as long as someone dares to pay, he'll dare to collect. Looks like this kid has a fat wallet!"

  "He's quite fat" Chubby sniffed and looked at me with some concern, "Jie Ge, you're not thinking of blackmailing him, are you?"

  "I advise you against it, otherwise there will be trouble"

  "What's wrong?" I muttered to myself, then laughed "Fatty, what are you thinking? Am I that kind of person?"

  "I'm not so poor that I have to go extorting Huang Hai, am I?" I asked Fatso. "But you said extorting Huang Hai would be trouble, what kind of trouble? Is this Huang Hai someone with connections or something?"

  "Huang Hai is not a big shot, but he's not small either. On the pedestrian street, isn't there a Mingyue KTV? That was opened by Huang Hai's family. His old man even used Huang Hai's name to start this KTV, 'Hai Shang Ming Yue', meaning that this KTV is for Huang Hai."

  Pangzi Gao Sheng let out a bitter laugh, "But Huang Hai has no interest in the KTV at all. He does have some business sense though. The money he has now was all earned by himself."

  "Did you earn it yourself?"

  "Right, in his own home KTV secretly selling cigarettes and liquor, robbing his own father's business." Gao Sheng laughed and said "Huang Hai is actually quite aware of the limits, every month he only sells that much, doesn't dare to sell more, otherwise, his old man would have beaten him up long ago"

  Another person with a background, I thought to myself.

  I frowned and asked Gao Sheng "So is this Huang Hai in contact with Gao Tianwei and the others?"

  "There is, we all came from the same school, how could there be no connection?" said Huanzi Gao Sheng matter-of-factly. "However, the relationship is quite ordinary, Gao Tianwei has tried to pull Huang Hai in several times, but Huang Hai dislikes socializing and thinks it's not promising, so he never joined." I smiled lightly and felt relieved inside.

  "I heard you two are quite close?" I asked cautiously, looking at Gao Sheng "Although I don't know what your identity is? It shouldn't be any worse than Huang Hai's, right?"

  "Heh heh" Gao Sheng scratched his head awkwardly and didn't say anything else.

  "No matter who you are, you're my good brother, just like Liu Shuai." I patted Gao Sheng's shoulder. "We're brothers, regardless of status. Even if one day you have nothing, you'll still be Li Jie's brother."

  Gao Sheng nodded in understanding.

  "I've always considered you as brothers" Gao Sheng's face suddenly fell "Actually, there's something I've been hiding from you, but you already know, Sun Yunyun and my situation, we're discussing our relationship"

  "I know it's not right, and I don't dare say it, after all, Sun Yunyun is your ex-girlfriend. If Liu Kaishi and the others find out, they'll definitely look down on me, and might even beat me up." Gao Sheng furrowed his brow "But, but I really like Sun Yunyun, Jiege, I'll treat her well"

  "Sun Yunyun is a good girl, I misunderstood her at first." Suddenly, my throat felt a little choked. "Treat her well, if you ever hurt her one day, I'll come after you to settle the score."

  Unconsciously, Gao Sheng replaced me, and I became the next Liu Gang!

  "Jie ge, you really don't blame me?" Pangzi Gaosheng looked at me with some guilt, seemingly a bit disbelieving.

  "Sun Yun chose you, and it's not like you forced her, why should I blame you?" I smiled wryly "I knew a long time ago that the two of you were in a relationship, but didn't want to expose you, you little scoundrel can really keep secrets"

  "Jie ge!" Gao Sheng suddenly called out to me.

  "Huh?"

  "Brother Jie, you're really great"

  "What's good?" I asked faintly, feeling a bit depressed inside.

  "I thought you'd wait for me to admit it in person, then turn against me, beat me up and scold me for not being loyal, for stealing your ex-girlfriend," Gao Sheng said.

  "You've already said that, she's an ex-girlfriend and has nothing to do with me now" I furrowed my brow "Fatty, I want to ask you something"

  "What's wrong?"

  "That day in Sofia, did you really have a relationship with Sun Yunyun? Is Sun Yunyun still a virgin?" I stared at Gao Sheng seriously. "I've already confirmed with Liu Gang that he and Sun Yunyun are clean, nothing happened between them!"

  "Pangzi told Xiangxiang Tuttu, but couldn't come up with an answer."

  "Is it hard to answer? What happened is what happened, and what didn't happen isn't. I furrowed my brow and said to Fatty, 'Regardless of whether you had a relationship with Sun Yunyun that night or not, I won't hold it against you.'"

  "So why are you still asking?" The fatty fell silent for a moment, then asked me back "I just wanted to give myself an answer, I want to know if Liu Gang has deceived me, I want to know if Sun Yunyun has ever wronged me" I looked at the fatty and said "Consider it a brother's request, tell me the truth"

  "I... I can't tell you anything, it's between me and Sun Yunyun, but I'm sure of one thing, you've wronged Sun Yunyun," Gao Sheng said tactfully.

  "Since you don't want to say, I won't force you," I said dejectedly. I always felt that Gaosheng's eyes were a bit off, as if he was intentionally hiding something from me.

  "Jie ge, I heard that we are going to fight with Gao Tianwei, is it? Can you take me with you when the time comes?" High Sheng suddenly asked me.

  "Aren't you the one who's most afraid of getting beaten up?" I looked at Gao Sheng with a hint of amusement.

  "Want to try, men, who hasn't fought or been beaten?" Gao Sheng laughed and said "Jie Ge, give me a chance?"

  "Alright, when we start, just follow Liu Shuai, but for now, keep it a secret. After a few days, once we've figured out Gao Tianwei's strength, we'll make our move." I patted Baozi on the shoulder "Believe in yourself, you can do it. Didn't Liu Shuai used to be just like you, never having fought before? Look at him now, who in our class isn't afraid of him?"

  Gao Shengwei smiled slightly, but his face didn't show much confidence.

  "Right, here's a thousand yuan." I pulled out a thousand yuan from my pocket and handed it to Gao Sheng. "I owe you, I'll pay back the rest later."

  "Brother Jie, no need," Gao Sheng said with a decline.

  "Give it to you and take it, who borrows money without paying back? If it weren't for us, your mom wouldn't have economically sanctioned you." I said to Gao Sheng "Liu Shuai has already told me"

  Gao Sheng's mother spoiled Gao Sheng, but when I and Liu Kai Shi went out of the hospital that time, Gao Sheng brought 3,000 to 4,000 yuan from home to pay our medical expenses. When Gao Sheng's mother asked him where the money had gone, he couldn't say, so his mother was furious and imposed economic sanctions on him, suddenly reducing his monthly living allowance.

  If it weren't for Fatso bringing that money, we wouldn't have had any, and could only force Liu Kai and Shi Meng to go home and ask for it. At that time, Liu Kai and Shi Meng would be finished.
