I Am Born With A Silver Spoon Novel Chapter 248
Chapter 248
“What do you mean by your savings of 100,000?”
Chen Hao was stunned.
Just as he walked through the door, he saw an agitated Su Ting.
“Don’t ask about it. I need the money!” Li Xiao said awkwardly.
“Why do you need the money? What is that in your hand? My god! What are you going to do with that big amount of paycheck?” Su Ting felt on edge as she saw the paycheck in his hand.
“This is for Chen Hao. How is it possible for me to pay him only 700,000 to buy his new car which is worth 2 million?” Li Xiao said.
“Why isn’t it possible? It’s not wrong of you to take advantage of him! He is the only person that you have the right to take advantage of! Give me the paycheck!” Su Ting snatched away the paycheck.
“Hmph! The car was sold for 1.8 million and you gave him the 700,000. Don’t forget that we still need to pay 100,000 for the commission!” Su Ting flipped the paycheck and looked at the amount clearly.
“1.1 million? What does this mean, Li Xiao? I get it now. The 100,000 you took from me is for Chen Hao. This means that we’ve lost 100,000 for this deal! Are you crazy?”
As she finished her words, she grasped a beer bottle in a fury and flung it toward Li Xiao. However, the bottle didn’t hit him but the ground in front of Chen Hao instead.
Li Xiao was furious at her and both of them were about to fight.
Indeed, the car wasn’t sold for 1.8 million as Li Xiao said. Li Xiao paid for the commission in order to find a buyer and sold the car with zero profit. He noticed that Chen Hao was unhappy yesterday,
probably because he was short of money. And so, he did that to get the money for Chen Hao as soon as possible.
That was why Li Xiao didn’t mind having the deficit deal in order to help Chen Hao.
Obviously, Su Ting smashed the beer bottle deliberately to show Chen Hao her anger.
“Give me the paycheck! I’ve promised to pay Chen Hao 1.8 million! Give it to me!”
“Why? No way! It’s not like we owe him anything. Besides, if it wasn’t because of Chen Hao, you wouldn’t have stabbed the others in the fight and got expelled from school back then, and we wouldn’t have to live such a difficult life now. You were the top student in our year at that time!” Su Ting sobbed while saying that.
“F*ck you! Watch your words!” Li Xiao scolded her with his face all red.
Standing between the both of them, Chen Hao managed to stop the fight.
Chen Hao felt his heart ache whenever he recalled that incident.
He grew up together with Li Xiao who came from a poor family as well. Thus, the two of them became best friends as they understood each other’s situation better than anyone else.
The two good buddies had always studied together.
Li Xiao was the kind of student who was naughty but did well academically.
It was common for him to fight in the school.
He often fought in order to protect Chen Hao. The reason for Chen Hao to have said that the darkest moment in his life was during his senior years but not junior years in secondary school, was that he didn’t get bullied that often in his junior years as Li Xiao was having his back that time.
Back then, Chen Hao had a female friend during his junior years in secondary school.
They were not a couple but had always exchanged letters with each other.
Later on, a famous punk from their school was interested in that girl. Knowing Chen Hao was close to her, the punk brought his underlings to beat Chen Hao up after school to vent his jealousy.
Li Xiao was with Chen Hao at that time. Seeing Chen Hao beaten up by the gang, he got into the fight as well to help Chen Hao.
As a result of panic, he accidentally stabbed the punk during the fight. Luckily, it wasn’t a severe wound and the punk was still alive.
However, Li Xiao was expelled from the school due to that incident.
After Li Xiao left the school, Chen Hao got beaten up several times.
As for the female friend who was once close to Chen Hao, she soon became the girlfriend of that punk.
That terrible incident traumatized Chen Hao, which later caused him to be awkward and shy whenever he was around girls in his senior years in high school and in college as well.
Since then, Chen Hao was grateful and remembered Li Xiao’s kindness all the time.
After getting expelled from the school, Li Xiao started to join a group of gangsters outside of the school and even ran away from home. When Chen Hao started going to college, he found it difficult to contact Li Xiao as Li Xiao had changed his phone number several times. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
In short, Chen Hao could be considered as the main factor to the downfall of Li Xiao’s bright future.
And that was why Su Ting hated Chen Hao a lot.
Su Ting was a nice girl. Her family ran a supermarket business in the town. Although her family was quite rich, she never looked down on Li Xiao and was in a relationship with him since their first year in secondary school.
Chen Hao had a very good impression of Su Ting.
Therefore, no matter how mean she treated him or reprimanded him, Chen Hao didn’t feel angry about it.
Chen Hao simply felt happy because he saw Li Xiao was doing quite well these few years.
Li Xiao and Su Ting stopped quarreling after Chen Hao’s mediation. Su Ting then brought them some breakfast.
They talked about their days back in school while having their meal.
Chen Hao also told Li Xiao that his G Wagon was actually a prize from a lucky draw session.
But he hesitated whether to tell Li Xiao about his identity.
It was mainly because he was afraid that telling Li Xiao about the truth would put their precious friendship to an end.
Of course, no matter what, Chen Hao would never hesitate to help Li Xiao at all cost now.
“Look, Chen Hao, I don’t feel appropriate to take all the money. I already have a fiancée but you haven’t settled down yet. It’s uncertain for you to marry the girl that you’re dating in Jin Ling. You’ll definitely need money for the wedding. I’ll take a small portion from the profit and you take the rest of it.” Li Xiao insisted on giving the money to Chen Hao.
Chen Hao refused and told Li Xiao that he would leave immediately if Li Xiao insisted on giving him the money.
Only then did Li Xiao give in.
“Hmph. That’s right. With this money, Xiao, you could expand your business! Let’s take it as compensation from Chen Hao!” Only then, Su Ting turned slightly happier.
Noticing the dissatisfaction on Li Xiao’s face, she quickly changed the topic and said, “Oh yeah, Xiao. A few days ago, a colleague of mine called me saying that one of her besties is still single and looking for a partner. She’s the same age as us and my colleague asked me if I could introduce anyone to her. How about introducing Chen Hao to her? Let’s arrange a blind date for them. If they could become a match, Chen Hao can finally settle down and form a family. You would help Chen Hao a big deal in that case!”
Li Xiao slapped his own thigh and laughed. “Sounds great! Chen Hao, let’s arrange the blind date! Since the girl is rushing to get married, you could settle down by the end of this year if the date is successful. Unlike that city girl you’re dating who is too demanding and the expectations from her family are even higher. It’s too unrealistic!” Li Xiao said in concern.
Chen Hao shook his head and turned Li Xiao down.
“Why not? Let’s just meet her once. It’s not like you’re being forced to marry her right away. If you think that it’s a good match, only then you start dating her. If you’re not interested in her, you can still maintain as friends!” Li Xiao was really concerned about Chen Hao.
Because of that, Chen Hao felt embarrassed to decline his goodwill anymore.
It was impossible for him to tell Li Xiao to stop worrying about him since he was now a super-rich heir. Chen Hao would rather kill himself than do that.
Left with no choice, he nodded his head and agreed. “Alright.”
After all, it was just a meet. As Li Xiao said, they could just be friends after that.
“Haha, that’s great! I’ll arrange the date now. That girl is from Ping An County. Let’s see if we can have lunch together later!” Su Ting was happy about that.
After finishing breakfast, Su Ting asked Chen Hao to head back and get ready for the meet.
He left right after that.
Not long after he left, he received a call from Li Zhenguo…
