Wang Gang's remarks had a certain impact on Qiu Yingying. She always thought that the friendship between the five sisters could last forever.
"Xiaobai, are you too alarmist? Although the five of us sometimes have conflicts, our friendship will not change!" Qiu Yingying said.
"Silly girl, how can anyone not change?" Wang Gang asked back:
"Let me ask you, you must have good friends in high school, right? Do you still keep in touch?"
"That's because we work in different cities and can't meet each other normally, but I still send messages and chat sometimes."
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Is it that there are less and less messages? At first, they were sent every day, then once every three days, and in the last month, there was no contact at all?"
Qiu Yingying thought about it and it was really like this.
"Will Guan Guan and I do the same thing in the future?" Qiu Yingying asked uncertainly.
"Friendship is an emotion that comes from a two-way relationship. It is an emotion condensed by both parties and must be maintained together. Any unilateral overture or deviation cannot be called friendship." Wang Gang said:
"As everyone's circumstances change and their life circles change, it is difficult to maintain friendships."
This time when he came to the world of Ode to Joy, Wang Gang saw clearly the essence of friendship.
The relationship between best friends and brotherhood will change, and nothing in the world remains constant.
"But I see that your friendship with Andy is very deep! You are very enthusiastic about helping her find her brother, investigating her background, and providing money and effort." Qiu Yingying also wanted to refute Wang Gang.
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Do you think I helped Andy just because of friendship?"
Qiu Yingying said in confusion: "Isn't it true? Andy and you are not relatives, but you are so eager to help her, what else can it be besides friendship?"
Wang Gang pulled Qiu Yingying to sit on the sofa and said: "Friendship is only a small part. In fact, what I helped Andy with was more about Tan Zongming."
"Mr. Tan?" Qiu Yingying asked in confusion: "What does this have to do with Mr. Tan?"
"It's not like you don't know Tan Zongming's attitude towards Andy. When I help Andy, I actually want Tan Zongming to help me in business.
Tan Zongming helped me a lot to acquire Shengtu Company and Yao's stock. In contrast, I helped him acquire Red Star and helped Andy find his younger brother. We are equivalent to establishing friendship through the exchange of interests."
"Is this still friendship?" Qiu Yingying asked in disbelief.
"Of course it is friendship, but it is an impure friendship. In essence, it is no different from you and Fan Shengmei." Wang Gang smiled.
"What kind of interest does Sister Fan and I have?" Qiu Yingying asked confused.
"Fan Shengmei helped you before. Now that you have money, you can help Fan Shengmei. She can even use you to gain access to the rich circle through me. How can we say this is not an exchange of interests?"
Qiu Yingying carefully recalled Wang Gang's words and found that it was really what happened.
"When you meet more people in the future, you will understand that if friendship is not mixed with interests, it is actually not strong and will gradually fade away."
Wang Gang thought of Sun Qianchao and Xiao Guoqing in the human world, as well as Gu Tingye and Qi Heng in the world of knowledge.
Friendship may be pure at the beginning, but as time goes by and interests become entangled, no one can keep it that pure.

Fan Shengmei walked slowly on the way back to the Magic City. She had been walking for an hour, and her feet were hurting from the high heels, but she still couldn't see the end of the road ahead.
She was already scolding Wang Gang in her heart, why did he buy a house in such a remote place? There is not even a subway or bus, and there are even fewer vehicles.
In the end, Fan Shengmei couldn't walk anymore, so she took off her high heels and sat on the roadside to rest.
At this time, a black Audi drove up next to her, with the windows rolled down.
"Miss Fan, why are you sitting on the roadside?"
Fan Shengmei looked up and saw that it was Wei Wei.
"Mr. Wei, where are you going? Can you give me a ride?"
Wei Wei smiled and said, "Okay, get in the car and I'll take you back to Ode to Joy."
Fan Shengmei was overjoyed and opened the passenger door happily.
"Mr. Wei, it's great to meet you, otherwise I wouldn't know how to get home."
"This place is quite remote. If I hadn't happened to be looking for a friend, I wouldn't have come here." While driving, Wei Wei watched Fan Shengmei rubbing her feet with her peripheral vision.
"How far have you walked, and your feet are worn out?" Wei Wei asked.
"I walked for almost an hour when I saw your car. If I hadn't met you, I might have stayed in the wilderness." Fan Shengmei said pitifully.
Wei Wei opened the storage box in the middle of the car, took out a box of band-aids and said, "Here you go."
Fan Shengmei took the band-aid and said with a smile: "Mr. Wei is so attentive, there are even band-aids in the car."
"When you live alone all year round, you have to learn to take care of yourself." Wei Wei said: "Miss Fan, don't call me Mr. Wei, just call me Wei Wei."
Fan Shengmei lowered her head and put on the band-aid, and then said, "You can just call me Shengmei."
The two chatted and became much closer, no longer feeling alienated as before, and the car drove into the city.
"Why did you go to such a remote place?" Wei Wei asked.
Fan Shengmei's face darkened as she remembered what happened in the villa.
"Forget it, some people look down on their poor friends when they are rich." Fan Shengmei said angrily.
"Who made you angry?" Wei Wei asked again.
"Who else can it be? Bai Muyang! As soon as I have money, I look down on others. When I have money in the future, I will definitely pay it back twice as much." Fan Shengmei said angrily.
Wei Wei's eyes flashed and he said, "Do you want to make some money?"
Fan Shengmei glanced at Wei Wei in surprise and wrapped up her clothes.
"What concern do you have?"
Wei Wei said: "I know that Andy and Bai Muyang are working on an acquisition case. If you find a way to give me the information, I will pay you 100,000."
Fan Shengmei breathed a sigh of relief and said strangely: "You want to sabotage Andy's acquisition case."
Wei Wei smiled and said: "Of course not, I just want to follow the trend and make some money. You also know that Andy has strong principles and refuses to reveal the inside story of the case."
When Fan Shengmei heard this, she rolled her eyes and said, "How much can Mr. Wei make by taking advantage of this opportunity?"
"Are you interested too?" Wei Wei asked.

"It's hard to say how much you can earn. If you are willing, I can let you participate in one share." Wei Wei said.
When Fan Shengmei heard this, she immediately became happy, but she felt a little sad when she remembered that she didn't have any savings.
"I don't have the money to get involved." Fan Shengmei said: "I know you can make a lot of money from the acquisition. Isn't one hundred thousand yuan a little too low?"
Wei Wei glanced at Fan Shengmei and said, "How many do you want?"
Fan Shengmei said proudly: "I haven't thought about it yet. I'll wait until I know how big the acquisition is."
The Audi drove slowly to Ode to Joy. Wei Wei parked the car, then took out a business card from his pocket and gave it to Fan Shengmei.
"Let me know when you think about it."
Fan Shengmei took the business card, opened the door and got out of the car, leaving Wei Wei with a back view.
Wei Wei watched Fan Shengmei enter the building, then took out his phone and dialed Andy's number.
"Andy, it's me, Wei Wei."
"Where did you hide my brother?" Andy shouted excitedly upon hearing this.
"Can we meet? There are some things I want to explain to you face to face. I'm in Ode to Joy."
Andy was silent for a while and then said: "I'm at home."
Wei Wei smiled and hung up the phone, then ran directly to the 22nd floor.
Andy was standing at the door, within sight of the surveillance position.
"Where is my brother?" Andy asked coldly.
"Xiao Ming is in China, and the situation has stabilized now." Wei Wei took out his mobile phone and opened a video.
Andy took the phone and saw a boy in his twenties in the video, introducing himself to the camera in a restrained manner.
"Xiao Ming." Andy recognized his brother at a glance.
"I took Xiao Ming away just to take him to the United States for treatment." Wei Wei explained.
"Why didn't you tell me that you found Xiao Ming?" Andy said bitterly.
"Because of Xiao Ming's illness, I was worried that you would have crazy thoughts and wanted to wait until his illness got better before telling you. I didn't expect that the villain Bai Muyang would use it to sow discord between us." Wei Wei said:
"Andy, Bai Muyang is not a good person at all. He is taking advantage of Tan Zongming. Everything he does has his own purpose. You must not believe him."
Andy was a little confused and said, "I want to see Xiao Ming right away."
Wei Wei said: "No problem, I have brought Xiao Ming back to China and now he lives with your father."
"What!?" Andy said angrily: "Why did you leave Xiao Ming to that man!"
Wei Wei explained: "Actually, your father has been looking for you siblings. He regrets what he did back then and wants to make it up to you."
"I don't need it." Andy said angrily, "Take me to Xiao Ming immediately."
