I Am Born With A Silver Spoon -
Chapter 377 Meeting Wang Wen Once More
"The old man said that before we went to replace him, there was another group of people who came looking for him as well. That group of people also asked him about what happened twenty-two years ago, and also about the personal butler!" Zhu Ming said.
Chen Hao was at a loss.
Who could it be?
He had thought that his father only wanted him to locate someone. Plain and simple. Who knew that this was becoming more complicated by the second?
But Chen Hao didn't think too much about it, since thinking was of no use right now.
What they had to do now was to quickly replace that butler.
Immediately, Chen Hao arranged for him to head to Hong County today. He also placed a call for Tian Long and Di Hu to quickly come over with backup.
At that moment, a message from the tutor popped up in the class group chat.
Chen Hao took a look.
At the same time, inside a luxury car.
"Miss Fang, we couldn't replace Miss Fang Mengxin's whereabouts, but we did get an important piece of information regarding her personal butler, Xia, from back then! That year, Miss Fang Mengxin and Xia went to book a room at this guest house..."
Fang Jiannan paid attention to the information she was being reported with.
Right then, she nodded. "Have you sent people over?"
"We've already added more people to the investigation. Apart from that, Miss Fang, I have something I need to report to you. It seems like we aren't the only ones looking for Miss Fang Mengxin. The old man who gave us the information told us that there was another group of people who were looking for her too, and they were extremely generous with their fees!"
"Who were they?"
Hearing this, Fang Jiannan frowned slightly.
"I'm sorry, Miss Fang, we haven't found that out yet. But in my opinion, we should operate more cautiously from now on."
Fang Jiannan nodded. "Alright, then proceed quickly. Right, this time, bring my twelve teachers. Aunt Mengxin was swift and ruthless in her deeds back then, and she has offended quite a lot of people. If she must be found, it should be our Fang family who replaces her!"
"Understood!"
After Fang Jiannan had arranged everything, a message was delivered to her class group chat from the tutor.
Fang Jiannan didn't usually mix around with her classmates, but she was still in the class group chat.
She then looked at the message.
The tutor said that their department had arranged an outing tomorrow morning which was coincidentally going to be held in Hong County.
There were quite a few people joining too.
The leader of the outing would be Fatty Wang from the class next to hers.
"Fatty is really getting his act together!"
Fang Jiannan laughed bitterly after seeing the message.
After that, she got out of the car and returned to school.
As for Chen Hao, he did not go back to school. Instead, he informed the school's administration before hurriedly heading off to Chengdu's Hong County. Hong County was not far away from Chengdu's capital.
As of now, there were many projects in development.
As for having some extra hands on deck, Zhu Ming had already sent out a few of his underlings to help with the search.
Chen Hao had brought a few of his own people in his haste and rushed over.
Su Ziyue and Zhu Ming only arrived after Tian Long and Di Hu brought their men over.
Chen Hao had no energy to join the school's outing.
Once he reached Hong County and found a hotel to settle down in, Chen Hao sent some of his underlings to contact the relevant people.
"Chen Hao?"
Chen Hao had just gotten his wallet and was preparing to return to his room from the underground carpark.
Suddenly, a female voice called out to him.
When he turned around, Chen Hao felt pleasantly surprised.
It was Wang Wen who had called him.
Liang Meng was next to Wang Wen along with two other girls.
"Damn, it really is Chen Hao! What a coincidence!" a different girl said after Chen Hao turned around.
Obviously, it was a shock to her to see Chen Hao here.
Chen Hao actually didn't recognize this girl until she opened her mouth.
"Hey, Chen Hao! Do you still remember me?" the girl asked. Her tone held a hint of superiority.
"Of course, you're Hou Xiaoxia!" Chen Hao smiled.
Hou Xiaoxia was also a member of the competitive team back in high school.
If he remembered correctly, she was probably Wang Wen's classmate, which meant her exam results had to be good.
Her personality was pretty special and she stood out quite a lot back then.
She was actually pretty similar to Hu Huimin.
Then again, they were still different.
Hou Xiaoxia was close to many guys. Of course, those guys were either ruffians who were bad at studying but at the same time, they either had good societal connections, were extremely rich or had some form of power.
They were basically boys who were pretty high up in society, played hard but managed to get really good grades.
They were pretty emotional too.
Speaking of which, Chen Hao had an unspeakable little argument with her at one point.
Hehe!
Now, Hou Xiaoxia was probably part of Wang Wen's circle of friends, all of them having gotten into Chengdu University.
When Chen Hao had seen Wang Wen a few days ago, she had mentioned it to him.
"Hehe!"
Hou Xiaoxia looked at Chen Hao up and down.
She said a little contemptuously, "I heard from Wang Wen that you came to Chengdu, but you still haven't left yet? Also, you're even staying in such a good hotel?" "Yeah, I'm leaving in a few days."
Chen Hao could tell that Hou Xiaoxia was still a little prickly with her words. Was it possible that she was still caught up in that little scuffle they had back then? Probably not, right?
But Chen Hao didn't push it and left it at that. Instead, he turned to Wang Wen and asked, "Wang Wen, what are you all up to?"
"We're here to take part in a big party! Hou Xiaoxia's boyfriend has tickets, so we all came along to have some fun!" Wang Wen was still rather friendly toward Chen Hao and smiled as she spoke. "Huh, Hou Xiaoxia has a boyfriend now?" Chen Hao asked.
Hou Xiaoxia looked at Chen Hao and rolled her eyes at him.
"Hehe, do you know who she's dating? A listed company's CEO's son!" Liang Meng said.
"Wow!" Chen Hao played along with Liang Meng's tone and nodded with a surprised look on his face.
"Is this the Chen Hao from high school that you guys have been talking about?"
Right then, a girl beside them asked.
She was probably a classmate of Wang Wen and Hou Xiaoxia.
She was rather pretty.
However, it was quite clear that Hou Xiaoxia had told her about what happened in high school.
Because Chen Hao could see that the girl was treating him with a rather unfazed demeanor.
He nearly thought he had blisters on his face from how the girl was looking at him. When she saw him, she pursed her lips in a contemptuous way.
Wang Wen definitely wouldn't talk about irrelevant things, but Hou Xiaoxia might have for all he knew.
"Yeah, that's me. When we were in high school, we were both on the same team for a competition!" Chen Hao kept his smile on.
"Right, Chen Hao, I haven't asked you if you have a girlfriend! If you don't, I have someone to introduce to you!" Wang Wen said, laughing.
Chen Hao kind of looked like he had a girlfriend, but honestly, Wang Wen also felt like he might not have one. She didn't have any intention other than replaceing him a girlfriend, seeing as he might have lied abou it to save his reputation.
"Hey, he definitely doesn't. Haha! Why don't we introduce Wang Yafei to Chen Hao? Yafei, Chen Hao may be a little poor, but he's a good man! Didn't your mom tell you to replace a good, honest man who would listen to you after marriage? She even warned you not to replace one like your ex-husband!" Hou Xiaoxia teased.
"Ugh, Xiaoxia! I'm gonna be mad if you keep bringing that up. You're so mean!" Wang Yafei and Hou Xiaoxia played around with each other.
Obviously, the once-married Wang Yafei also looked down on Chen Hao.
Chen Hao just shook his head bitterly after hearing that.
Just then. "Xiaoxia, what are you all up to? Why haven't you all come up yet?"
A cool voice called, and they saw a handsome man in a suit walking toward them.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
