Chapter 493: 【493】We know nothing about his situation_1
Tang Feng ultimately did not stay in the presidential suite overnight.
Although he too wanted to experience the feel of the presidential suite, he was driven out by that ungrateful wretch of a sister, Han Xiaoxiao.
Having no choice, he had to hail a cab back to his rented apartment.
On the way back, the childhood friends’ group suddenly became lively.
It started with a message from Sun Haiyang.
“Brothers and sisters, I’ve booked a luxury private room at the most upscale Ruida Hotel in Zhonghai. Tomorrow night, I’ll treat you all to the five-star hotel experience.”
His display of wealth through the message immediately stirred up waves of flattery.
“Haiyang’s awesome, I knew there’s nothing you couldn’t handle.”

“Wow, I heard that all the restaurants in Zhonghai are packed, yet Haiyang still got us a private room. Really impressive.”
“Nonsense, do you know what Haiyang’s cousin does?”
“No, what does he do?”
“Haiyang’s cousin is the Assistant Manager of the lobby at Ruida Hotel, you think he doesn’t have pull?”
“Damn, so Haiyang has such a solid connection? Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“Haiyang just keeps it low-key, I ask you, out of all of us here, who has the most sway in Zhonghai? It has to be Haiyang.”
“Don’t say that, Tang Feng’s also been in Zhonghai, I guess he knows quite a few people too.”
“Tang Feng? Stop kidding, okay? You think everyone has access to the Assistant Manager of the lobby at a five-star hotel?”
“Yeah, Tang Feng just graduated not long ago, where’d he have time to make such solid connections?”
“Haiyang can introduce Tang Feng to your cousin, let him take care of Tang Feng a bit.”
“Yeah, we grew up playing together, ought to look after each other…”
These old friends showed a certain amount of consideration for Tang Feng’s feelings, not going overboard with their comments.
But the implication between the lines was that Tang Feng was just doing okay in Zhonghai, not having nearly as broad a network as Sun Haiyang.
At this point, Sun Haiyang piped up again with a message, “Don’t compare yourselves with me, how can there be any comparison? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t look down on you all, it’s just that our family circumstances aren’t the same, it’s unfair to you to compare with me.”
Seeing his pompous statement, Tang Feng could not help but coldly chuckle.
A mere relocatee from a small county town feeling so superior?
Just then, Han Xiaoxiao suddenly sent a message, “Yeah, we really can’t compare with that kind of family condition. That’s why I never make promises to anyone because I know I can’t fulfill them. And some people, despite clearly being unable to deliver, still insist on pretending, which is truly nauseating.”
Her words led to a long silence in the group.
After quite a while, a clueless old friend asked, “Xiaoxiao, who are you talking about?”
“Hehe, whoever I’m talking about knows it themselves. Let’s not name names, let’s spare them some face.”
Just as the atmosphere in the group became a bit awkward, someone immediately stepped in to play peacemaker.
“By the way, where’s Tang Feng? Come out and chat, will you? We are coming to Zhonghai tomorrow, how are you planning to entertain us?”
“Yeah, Tang Feng, you’re essentially the host here, you’ve got to show some hospitality, right? How do you plan to entertain us?”
“Feng, I don’t have any extravagant demands, just rent a couple of cars to take us around Zhonghai, that shouldn’t be too difficult for you, right?”
That’s when Tang Feng finally sent out a message, “No problem, I’ll take you all on a good tour when the time comes.”
At this point, Sun Haiyang spoke up again, “Don’t trouble Tang Feng too much, he’s just an ordinary worker. Even renting a regular car for a day would cost several hundred at least, probably enough to cover his food expenses for a month. If you guys want to have fun, I’ll ask my cousin to find a few nicer cars to take you around.”
“Seems like we still have to rely on Haiyang.”
“Yeah, after all, Haiyang’s got a great cousin who’s well-connected in Zhonghai.”
“Although Haiyang’s not in Zhonghai, there are legends of Haiyang all over the place there.”
“Hahaha, then we’re all counting on Haiyang…”
As everyone else was busy showering Sun Haiyang with praise, Han Xiaoxiao sent out another message.
“You have no clue. Tang Feng’s connections and influence in Zhonghai are beyond anything you can imagine.”
She probably stepped in because she was afraid Tang Feng would be annoyed by the group’s comments.
Her words sparked a wave of discussion.
“What’s going on? Xiaoxiao just arrived in Zhonghai today, and she’s already been won over by Tang Feng? That was quick, huh?”
“Xiaoxiao, did you see something? Share with us.”
“Yeah, you said Tang Feng has huge influence in Zhonghai, in what ways specifically?”
“This Tang Feng is too low-profile, we know nothing about him, come on and fill us in…”
Tang Feng hurriedly sent a private message to Han Xiaoxiao, “Xiaoxiao, no need to say all this to them.”
Han Xiaoxiao immediately replied, “I just can’t stand their glorification of Sun Haiyang, that guy just loves to brag, but when you really need him, he’s useless. He even sent me a private message just now, asking me not to reveal that he didn’t book the hotel, and sent me a big red envelope. What does he take me for?”
Tang Feng could not help but shake his head and smile, “How other people are, that’s beyond our control, let’s just take care of ourselves.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to you. Off to sleep now.”
After sending a reply, Han Xiaoxiao went offline.
Tang Feng returned to the group of old friends and found two people still endlessly flattering Sun Haiyang, suddenly finding it all particularly pointless.
In our youth, we were all innocent and carefree, sharing the purest friendships, able to joke and play without any hidden agendas.
But now that we’ve grown up, we’ve been tainted with too much worldliness and scheming, and can no longer find that feeling from the past.
Perhaps, in this group, aside from Han Xiaoxiao, there was no one else worth his nostalgia.
Or maybe, what he missed was never this group of people at all, but just the memories.
After the dinner gathering tomorrow, everyone will go their separate ways, and perhaps that will be the end of any interaction in this lifetime.
Some people are destined to be just passersby in life.
The past cannot be revisited; all we need to do is to cherish those who are worth cherishing. That is enough.
