Gu Chen wasn't only acquainted with Nie Zhanfeng, the owner of Nie family Restaurant, just because his family also had the shop in the same street but also because he had a childhood friend in the Nie family—Nie Haolong.
One day, just two or three years after the Gu Family had settled into Redwood City, Gu Chen was strolling through the market and happened to pass by a shop in the medical street.
There he saw a young man his age, begging the shop owner to let him take some medicine home and he would get him the remaining money he owed the next day. The shop owner, however, refused to accommodate him and threw him out of the shop and the guy landed right before his feet.
Gu Chen took pity on him and gave him the money he was short on after finding out his bed-ridden mother needed this medicine urgently or she would suffer unbearable pain all day.
