I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Chapter 23

‘What?”

All the students in the class were stunned. Xu Nan, who was standing on the podium and was preparing to ridicule Chen Hao, had an incredulous look on his face. How did Chen Hao get so rich?

Meng Cairu’s lips parted slightly. She felt her breath quickened.

Even Yang Xia, who was at the bottom of the podium, looked shocked.

At one glance, these cash amounted to approximately a few hundred thousand.”Chen Ha… where did you get this money from?”

Meng Cairu calmed herself and asked.”That’s right Chen Hao，there is at least200,000 here.”

Several female students near the podium couldn’t help but ask.

“Yes, there is 200,000 here. As to where I obtained t… It’s from a lottery!”

Chen Hao said.

Of course, he could not tell them about the minimum withdrawal amount that his sister set for him. He knew that they would still treat him like an idiot even if he explained it to them.

Chen Hao definitely would not show off his wealth, unless the situation demanded it, like now.

“You’ve won the lottery!?”

Chen Hao’s words caused quite a stir in the classroom.

Xu Nan, Blondie and the rest of the gang on stage were looking like a bunch of idiots.

They wanted to ridicule Chen Hao in the beginning, but now he had thrown 200,000 at their faces for them to count.

They really deserved it.

They continued to stand on the stage as they were too embarrassed to walk down.

Yang Xia anxiously asked, “Chen Hao, how much did you win?”

Her breathing was fast. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

She was afraid that he had won a few million. If that was true, she wanted to jump off the building.

No! Absolutely not!

As somebody who was dumped by her, how could he have such good fortune?!

No!!!

Chen Hao smiled calmly. “Not much, not much!”

“How much is not much? 200,000?”

Meng Cairu looked at Chen Hao questioningly.

“Whatever you say..” said Chen Hao.

???

Everyone was dumbfounded.

What did he mean, “Whatever you say”?

The classroom was in an uproar as the students anxiously guessed how much Chen Hao won.

This was because most of the students there, including Meng Cairu, had always looked down on Chen Hao.

He was a poor dude who deserved to be derided and mocked at.

However, now that he had won the lottery, many people’s self esteem could not bear it.

But mostly, they were just jealous!

“5,000, it should be easy to count right?” Chen Hao gave the dumbfounded Xu Nan a cold glance.

Then he took out another 5,000 and flung it in front of Meng Cairu.

Then, he turned to the rest of the students and asked, “Who can lend me their bags?”

Since he had revealed that he was rich, Chen Hao did not plan on being a wimp anymore. He decided that he would be like Xu Nan and his gang. Since he had money, he would be firm with his request. Chen Hao wanted to borrow a bag to put the money in!

“Chen Hao, use mine!”

“Chen Hao, use mine, I am not using my bag now anyway!”

“Chen Hao, Chen Ha…”

Many students clamored for his attention at once. They wanted to lend him their bags.

Chen Hao finally borrowed one.

He put the rest of the 190,000 into the bag.

“Why does he look so smug? It’s only200,000. Did he even need to show off his money? He even took out the f*cking200,000 in cash. He’s really an upstart, such a country bumpkin!”

Xu Nan and Blondie spat out viciously. Yang Xia looked at Chen Hao uncomfortably. She wanted to say something to him but was too embarrassed to do so. Oh my God, it’s so frustrating!

If she had dumped him a few days later, Yang Xia was sure that Chen Hao would spend all the 200,000 on her.

“Chen Hao, you are so lucky. Besides, you are pretty popular right now. All the students here are willing to lend you things like bags. Since you are so rich now, don’t you want to treat everyone to a meal?”

At this moment, Meng Cairu said out of jealousy from the podium.

“You’re right, Young Master Chen. Since you’ve won 200,000, you should treat us to a meal.”

“We are not sure whether our Young Master Chen is willing to or not. We have been classmates for three years already, don’t we get to share this glory with you?” Some girls tried to persuade him.

Chen Hao thought, Since I told them that I won the lottery, if I did not treat them to a meal, wouldn’t that make them unhappy?

Chen Hao initially only wanted to treat his roommates and Xiao Nan to a fancy meal.

But now…

Chen Hao said,“No problem, tonight is my treat. Those who wish to come can tag along!”

What Chen Hao really meant was, if you think that you are close to me, then you can come along.

“Yeah!”

Many people in the class started cheering. Chen Hao smiled bitterly and carried his money back to his seat.

This morning’s class had become more interesting.

More and more people started to surround Chen Hao.

All of them wanted to know how much Chen Hao won.

But Chen Hao managed to dodge their questions.

Hence, some of them started feeling anxious!

“Xu Nan, what’s our plan tonight? Are we still going? This guy is excluding us intentionally!”

Blondie said viciously.

Anybody would feel antsy if the person you had always bullied and looked down on was suddenly doing better than you.

Blondie was that kind of person.

“Haha, we should go! We definitely have to go! Let’s bleed that kid’s wallet dry tonight..”

Looking at Chen Hao, Xu Nan smiled while rubbing his chin.

Blondie instantly understood. “Clever, very clever indeed!”

It was noon already.

Chen Hao prepared to go out to book a restaurant.

As the saying goes, you should keep the goodies within the family.

Hence, Chen Hao naturally went to a restaurant that was owned by him on Jin Ling Commercial Street.

If the restaurant was too high-end, he was afraid that his classmates would call him a pretentious b*stard. 200,000 was definitely not enough. Although the money that he spent would eventually end up in his pockets, it would be too far-fetched.

Hence, Chen Hao found a relatively less expensive place that was similar to Ming Huang Restaurant in terms of status on Jin Ling Commercial Street. The restaurant’s name was ‘Homecook Kitchen Restaurant’.

The moment he entered the restaurant, Chen Hao saw a few familiar faces.

“Manager Zhao, our expenditure today is not bad huh? Each of us spent approximately 1,880. The next time we come here, you ought to give us a discount..”

“Haha, no problem, Young Master Wang. The next time you come here, we will definitely give you a discount!””Wang Yang is really gaining a lot of respect!”

“Of course! Do you know who Wang Yang is? He drives an Audi A6 and even uses it for practice only. The restaurant he frequents is also a 5-star restaurant like this Homecook Kitchen Restaurant. Hehe, whoever marries Young Master Wang, he or she will truly be dignified!”

“Weiwei, we were able to come here today because Wang Yang fancies you..”

Chen Hao took a look and saw that the group of people consisted of the President and Vice President of the student council, Jiang Weiwei and Wang Yang, and Jiang Weiwei’s other friends.

They were all looking at Wang Yang with admiration.

“Welcome sir!”

Chen Hao wanted to avoid them initially, especially Jiang Weiwei, whose mouth was like a cannon. She would ridicule people wherever she went.

He silently thought to himself that what a coincidence it was to bump into them. He was about to leave to look for another restaurant but the waiter had a sharp eye. He immediately bowed to Chen Hao, his voice ringing loud and clear.

That attracted Wang Yang and the group’s attention.

The moment they turned their heads, their eyes gleamed.

“Chen Hao!”

Jiang Weiwei shouted in surprise, then asked with contempt, “What are you doing in Homecook Kitchen Restaurant?”

In her eyes, Chen Hao was the type of person who would work hard and struggle every day for money. To the extent that if he did not think of a way to earn money today, he would go hungry tomorrow.

So how could he possibly come to a high- end place like this?

“Maybe he came here for a part-time job!”

“I’ll be damned. Our department is having

a class this afternoon and he came here to work?”

“Haha, I think that he slipped out secretly. Was it because he knew that his student subsidies were a hopeless cause? That’s why he is looking for a part-time job to earn some money. Or else he would be expelled from college!”

Four or five of the girls obviously knew who Chen Hao was and started laughing scornfully.

Jiang Weiwei’s gaze was cold. She interrogated, “Chen Hao, how dare you skip classes just to work part-time. Believe it or not, I am going to tell the department to take disciplinary action. So that even if you earned the money, you would not have enough credits to graduate!”

Wang Yang was sneering.

Chen Hao relied on his good grades and didn’t bother to greet him whenever he bumped into him. Wang Yang wanted to see how this person could continue to survive in their department.

“I didn’t come here for a part-time job. I only came here to book a private room!” When he heard Jiang Weiwei and her group ridiculing him one after another, Chen Hao was mad.

He casually replied to them and did not plan to walk away anymore.

He went directly to the front counter.

“What? You? You want to book a private room?”

Jiang Weiwei and her group of friends were stunned. The look of hatred on their faces became even more obvious…
