Gao Guang was thrilled, and his joy had multiple sources. First of all, the huge weight that had been pressing on his heart could finally be lifted, then he was happy for Mike, and he was also glad to be able to repay a Greek.
In Huaxia culture, people emphasize clear distinctions between kindness and enmity, and the concept of repaying even the smallest kindness with a spring-like gushing gratitude. Though Gao Guang could not do much about the affairs between countries, when it came down to an individual level, he was willing to repay someone who had previously been a stranger with the utmost sincerity.
But what truly made Gao Guang happy was the realization that he had the power to change someone's fate.
Ever since Dimitris took the initiative to seek him out, his destiny changed, and Gao Guang, the one who altered his fate, didn't need to pay any special price or make much of an effort. All he needed to do was to give money.
