Gu Jiaojiao listened from the side, finding the whole thing incredibly strange.
'They've made up already?'
'No, that's not right. Chen JianShe was never even mad at Leng Yuan.'
In any case, after a bit of back-and-forth, the two of them decided to go up the mountain together.
For lunch, Gu Jiaojiao made sweet and sour carp. Even though it wasn't spicy, the two men ate with great gusto.
Gu Jiaojiao had wanted to find a chance to ask about the business with the loan sharks, but the opportunity never came, so she decided to drop it.
'Either way, I should focus on selling the fountain pen first.'
That afternoon, Leng Yuan and Chen JianShe went up the mountain, tools in hand.
Gu Jiaojiao told Leng Yuan she was going to the County Town that afternoon. He didn't mind and gave her two large bills, telling her to spend them however she liked.
Gu Jiaojiao didn't stand on ceremony and accepted them directly.
