Chapter 130: Shop Opening
The contract was completed, Meng Gu then left with a smile, leaving him alone with his worries.
Sitting on the silent sofa, his thoughts suddenly returned to four years ago.
At that time, he was still a freshman in college. Like all students, he had dreams of entering the sacred hall - university.
Not long after school started, a beautiful girl appeared in his field of vision. She had black shiny hair, a pair of bright eyes, and a beautiful face that exuded endless charm.
She was the Zhenzhen when we first met. At that time, Zhenzhen was relatively shy and not as domineering as the elder sister she is now.
Xiaochao and he are indeed good brothers. They like girls very much, so both of them are full of love and affection for Zhenzhen.
Xiaochao, who has a cheerful personality, pursues Zhenzhen, but he, who is introverted, can only bury this love deeply in his heart.
Then things slowly developed, and everyone got to know Zhenzhen better and better. They learned that her family was wealthy, that she was a standard wealthy daughter, and that she also had a mysterious fiancé. If Zhenzhen's family is a billionaire, then her mysterious fiancé is the heir to a family worth billions.
For ordinary families like him and Xiaochao, they and Zhenzhen are not in the same life circle at all. It is a blessing to meet each other in college.
Until he graduated from college, he and Zhenzhen had nothing to do with each other, but his love for Zhenzhen only grew stronger over time. However, he is self-aware that he and Zhenzhen have no connection, they are just passers-by in life.
This love can only be buried deep in his heart forever and become his biggest secret.
But fate likes to joke with people. Because of this game, he and Zhenzhen met again. They gradually became more and more familiar with each other and became friends who fought side by side.
Meng Gu suddenly mentioned it today, and he felt mixed emotions in his heart.
At the end of this year, Zhenzhen and his fiancé will officially hold a wedding ceremony, and Zhenzhen will officially become someone else's bride.
He was afraid of that moment coming, afraid that his beloved girl would become someone else's bride, but in his heart he was looking forward to that moment coming.
Because that moment would bring a "regretful" end to his four-year secret love.
"Half a year is enough." Faced with the helplessness of reality, he could only sigh silently.
Day 29 of the game.
Early this morning, Feng put on a handsome casual suit and went out. After wandering a few streets, he came to a commercial street. People come and go here, and the hard-working working people have already started their busy day.
Today’s destination is the specialty restaurant opened by Wei Shao and Zhen Zhen’s family.
This is a large three-story shop. A red carpet has been laid out at the door. On both sides of the red carpet are neat flower baskets. Beautiful flowers bloom in the flower baskets to welcome the rising sun. There is also a large signature wall next to the carpet, waiting for the arrival of "stars".
Originally, when a friend's store opens, he must give gifts, but Westbrook has already said hello in advance. Don't give gifts, just need people to arrive. Because the arrival of friends is the best gift to them.
Zhenzhen walked out of the store and warmly welcomed him into the store. The first floor of the store was for private seating, the second floor was for private rooms, and the third floor was divided into two sides, one side was also a private room, and the other side was a private space.
Zhenzhen knew that he didn't like to join in the fun, so she took him directly to the private space on the third floor. This is their office area. Looking down from here, you can have a clear view of what is happening at the door.
"Thank you for coming. Please feel free to visit. I'm going to meet other friends." After Zhenzhen welcomed him to the third floor, she went downstairs and continued her work.
With the sound of festive firecrackers, the store opening ceremony officially began, and one after another guests walked into the door of the store after congratulating each other.
The highlight of the ceremony was the Internet celebrities walking on the red carpet. These celebrities attended the event in various costumes, each with their own characteristics. They walked gracefully on the red carpet and signed their names on the signature wall.
The diligent photographers held the "weapons" in their hands to record these beautiful moments. The fluorescent lights kept flashing on them, becoming the most beautiful scenery at the opening ceremony.
Some of these Internet celebrities are friends of Westbrook and Hua Shao, and some are specially invited by Westbrook to promote the store. Now is the Internet age, and Internet celebrity check-in has become a current trend.
During the fun, a familiar figure appeared on the red carpet. He was wearing a handsome suit, his hair was shiny, and he had a wicked smile on his face, full of coquettishness.
This person is his good brother, Xiao Chao.
Xiao Chao formed a live broadcast team and established his own live broadcast guild, so this time he not only came alone, but also brought several handsome guys and beauties from his own guild. A group of people came on stage together and left their names on the signature wall. .
After signing, posing, and taking photos, Xiaochao did not leave the red carpet. Instead, he directly picked up the microphone given by the staff and became the host of the scene.
Xiaochao was already calm and comfortable with such a scene, and he easily introduced the next guests. His humorous introduction brought a lot of joy to the scene.
Seeing Xiao Chao's passionate performance, as a good brother, he couldn't help but smile on his face.
"What are you laughing at?" A voice suddenly came from behind. Turning around, it turned out that Shishi, Menggu and Xiaotian were here.
"Happy, happy that the store is opening today." He replied on second thought.
Meng Gu was looking at him with a smile at this time. Due to the conversation between the two last night, there was an inexplicable feeling between them, and the two sides smiled in understanding.
"It's too lively and noisy down there, so I just want to hide here for a while." After entering the door, Shishi found a seat and sat up, then took out her phone and started playing with it.
"Brother Feng, it turns out you've arrived a long time ago. I thought you weren't here yet." Xiaotian greeted him enthusiastically.
"Yeah, I don't know who went out early this morning and hasn't called me yet." He knew that Xiaotian left earlier than him today, and judging from the situation, he should have gone to pick up Menggu and the others.
After hearing this, Xiaotian could only smile awkwardly but politely.
"Look, this Xiaochao does have two tricks, and he is a good host." Shishi, who was watching short videos on her mobile phone, had already seen relevant videos of today's scene on the Internet.
"Xiao Chao is indeed the one who has changed the most and made the fastest progress among our group." He looked at Xiao Chao downstairs and slowly fell into deep thought. He realized that he had to make some changes, otherwise he would not be able to keep up with his good brothers.
"If I had known this place was so spacious, I would have brought my gaming equipment with me so I could go online and see if anything happened." Meng Gu also sat next to Shishi, flipping through her phone boredly.
"Sister Shishi, the Mid-Autumn Festival dress you designed for the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala last night is so beautiful. It will definitely win the grand prize." Menggu found the picture of the Mid-Autumn Festival dress designed by Shishi from her mobile phone and was very happy. Said to Shishi.
"Thank you for the compliment." When Shishi heard others praising her work, a smile appeared on her face involuntarily.
"When will the winners be announced?" Meng Gu asked next.
"I guess tomorrow." Shishi
"I heard from the gossip that there is a mobile version of the game." Xiaotian
"It's fake, the game memory is so large, how can it be installed on a mobile phone."
"That's right."
"Online information cannot be trusted."
"..."
At noon, everyone gathered in a private room on the third floor. This private room was very large, but everyone was sitting there. There were Feng, Xiaochao, Wei Shao, Zhenzhen, Shishi, Menggu, Xiaotian, Brother Lin, Brother Zhang, The colleagues brought by Xiao Chao and so on.
"For the first glass of wine today, we would like to congratulate Westbrook and Zhenzhen on opening their new store." Xiao Chao was obviously still in a state of excitement. After everyone toasted together, he drank half the glass of red wine in one gulp. Then he began to toast to the people present one after another, bringing the wine table culture to its fullest.
The so-called telling the truth after drinking, Xiaochao talked from elementary school to college, from just doing live broadcasts to now establishing a live broadcast guild, venting the bitterness encountered in the process under the influence of alcohol.
Some people sympathize with Xiao Chao's bitterness; some congratulate Xiao Chao on his success; some look forward to working together; some envy Xiao Chao's bumper career. As Xiaochao's good brother, he saw something else.
Life is a long and slow road, full of failure, success, desire, confusion, and temptation. Xiao Dao was in an overly excited state and seemed to have lost himself in it.
Looking at Xiao Chao's slightly tipsy appearance, he counted on his fingers and realized that it had been a long time since he and Xiao Chao had a detailed chat. It was time to find some time to have a good chat with each other.
After the meal, everyone had their own business and left. As he passed the first floor, he saw several food anchors introducing the food on the table. They were working under fluorescent lights, either for work, for hobbies, or for life.
Return to your residence at noon and log in to the game after sitting down.
This afternoon, the Chaowei Peak Gang officially opened its chess room in Lingwu Village. A long red carpet was laid out at the entrance of the chess room, red lanterns were hung on the high eaves, and the loud sound of firecrackers announced The official opening of the chess room.
The chess room is only at the elementary level now, so there is currently only one floor with dozens of private seats and dozens of private rooms. Currently, it can only operate two types of chess, namely chess and go.
However, it still attracts a large number of players. Some are curious and interested in new things; some really like chess and Go and hope to compete with the masters; some players are bored and come here to kill time.
Originally, he wanted to experience what it was like to play chess in the game, but he was told that it was already full, so he could only smile and go to the lounge of the chess room to wait for the opportunity.
