I Am Born With A Silver Spoon -
Chapter 74 He Was That Psycho Who Bought the Car
"I didn't bring any gifts!" Chen Hao smiled, embarrassed.
He wanted to buy one but Su Tongxin didn't agree and said that they only needed one gift. Of course she would be the one to buy it! That was why Chen Hao came here empty-handed.
He knew that his presence at Grandma Su's birthday feast was enough to make Grandma Su happy. Who would have thought that Su Ying would try to pick a fight!
"What? You didn't bring presents? I thought Tongxin's boyfriend would definitely bring an expensive gift!"
"Isn't Tongxin's boyfriend an upstart? He should have known better. It's his first time coming to our family gathering but he didn't bring anything?"
"Ah, he's lackluster compared to Su Ying's boyfriend Li Jiannan!"
A lot of relatives began to murmur.
Their voices were not soft and everyone could hear them.
So at the moment, Grandma Su felt a bit embarrassed.
She was not the kind of person who liked gifts but as an elderly, she valued other people's respect toward her.
So, her attitude toward Chen Hao was less enthusiastic than that of Li Jiannan.
She just said that it was fine and told Chen Hao to sit aside.
She then asked noncommittally, "Chen Hao, I heard your family has a strong financial background. What kind of business does your family run?"
"Oh, we do all sorts of business!" Chen Hao said mildly.
Although Chen Hao was telling the truth, the answer was a bit disrespectful in the eyes of Grandma Su and the others.
What did 'all sorts of business' mean?
What was the business specifically?
He could not even answer a simple question properly.
Su Tongxin smiled and said hurriedly, "Grandma, it's his first time here. Be careful not to scare him with all your questions!"
"Alright, I'll stop asking!" Grandma Su let it go.
After all, Su Tongxin was her favorite.
"Hmph, is he scared because of the number of questions or because of those questions itself? Sister, do be clear, what business does Chen Hao's family run? I think you know better than all of us!" Su Ying then said in a peculiar tone.
The one thing that she couldn't stand most was that no matter what Su Tongxin said or did in front of Grandma Su, she was correct.
Grandma Su would always pamper her.
But if other grandchildren did something wrong, even if it was just a minor mistake, they would be scolded harshly by her.
She wasn't planning to fall out with Su Tongxin but she couldn't take it anymore.
Let's see if you will still be able to keep your head up high after today!
Sure enough, her words attracted Grandma Su's attention.
She thought of Wang Huimin's attitude just now.
Grandma Su frowned. "Tongxin, are you hiding something from me? What business does Chen Hao's family run?" Su Tongxin stiffened.
At the same time, she looked at his brother Su Qi.
Whatever that was happening, Su Ying knew that her brother had a part in it.
Just as she thought, Su Qi didn't dare to meet her eyes.
"Grandma, I didn't..." Su Tongxin said nervously.
"Ha, you're too embarrassed to say it right? Fine, I'll help you say it. Grandma! Do you know who this Chen Hao is?"
"He used to be a famous poor kid in Jin Ling College. He earned his living by running errands... Yes, Chen Hao indeed had some money later on, but that's because he won the lottery. Guess what? Chen Hao... "
It was unclear where Su Ying gathered the information, but she was quite practiced in delivering it.
She spilled all the embarrassing moments of Chen Hao as if she had seen it with her own eyes, including Chen Hao's spending spree after winning the lottery. The worst thing was, she did it in front of everyone.
"What? I can't believe Tongxin made this person her boyfriend!"
"And they say he's an upstart. I'll say this kid deliberately deceived Su Tongxin by making up his identity, right?"
"Ah, this is the case with poor people. Once they have a bit of money, they would show off and forget who they are! It was just a lottery, was all of this really necessary?"
Gossip was a fearful thing.
Suddenly, all Chen Hao could hear was contempt and condescension. Everyone's perceptions toward Chen Hao changed in a flash.
"How dare you lie to our Tongxin?" Tang Ran was feisty and she stood up right away, questioning Chen Hao coldly.
Grandma Su's face had gone completely red with anger.
Su Ying looked at Li Jiannan and smirked.
This was extremely satisfying!
Tang Ran asked Su Tongxin, "Tongxin, didn't you just tell me that he bought a BMW 7 Series? I thought it was a bit weird. Chen Hao should have driven here, but he didn't. Have you actually seen his BMW 7 Series?"
Su Tongxin stammered. She didn't know how to reply.
"Tang Ran, we have a total of three BMW branches in Jin Ling City. During this period, we didn't sell any BMW 7 Series. If we did, I would have known!"
"Wait a second! I remember who he is!" Su Muyang's girlfriend, Du Qing, pointed at Chen Hao.
When Chen Hao arrived, Du Qing had already sized Chen Hao up.
This person looked familiar, really familiar.
Where had she seen him before?
Du Qing couldn't remember exactly where.
Du Qing only remembered when Tang Ran mentioned the BMW 7 Series.
She had seen this person before and it was in the BMW shop!
"Du Qing, do you know him?" Su Muyang asked lightly.
To be honest, he felt that Su Tongxin had humiliated their family in front of all their relatives by associating herself with this strange kid.
Therefore, Su Muyang's attitude toward Chen Hao was also extremely hostile. Not to mention that he had been fighting openly and covertly with his uncle's family.
At present, not only did he want to express his anger, he also wanted Du Qing to tell everyone what she knew.
"Yes. Of course I know him, Muyang. Do you remember that I told you the other day that there was a strange young man who went to our BMW car dealer shop to buy the most expensive car? I recommended all the most expensive cars in our shop to him but he said that they were too cheap and left our shop with a pained expression!"
"Of course I remember. Is he that strange fool?" Su Muyang was stunned.
Du Qing nodded. "Yes, it's him. I remember that he was wearing shabby clothes at that time, but today he was all dressed up so I couldn't recall."
This time, the crowd looked at Chen Hao with a complicated gaze.
"What kind of person did Tongxin replace?"
"He's crazy!"
"Don't talk nonsense, Chen Hao isn't like that!" cried Su Tongxin.
She was about to break down. She wanted Chen Hao to pretend to be her boyfriend so that Grandma Su would be happy. It was as simple as that. Secondly, she also wanted to compete with Su Ying.
After all, Chen Hao had already beaten them yesterday, but Su Tongxin never dreamed that her cousin would be so ruthless. She even investigated Chen Hao!
What was more, Su Muyang's new girlfriend actually knew Chen Hao and she even described Chen Hao as a dumba**.
It could be said that the whole thing backfired on Su Tongxin.
"What do you mean, Chen Hao is not like that? Tongxin, why would your sister-in-law lie to you? If you don't believe it, ask your boyfriend if he was really at the BMW car dealer shop that day?" Du Qing said. Chen Hao had been listening to everyone quietly, including Du Qing. He recognized her now.
After all, he had just met Du Qing once. On that day, she was wearing a black uniform. During her introduction of the car, she was calling other customers the entire time and didn't show an ounce of respect to him, so there was not much interaction.
If Chen Hao was not mistaken, he remembered Du Qing cursing him when he was leaving.
At that time, he didn't care about it.
But should he refute? How could he refute? After all, what they said was true.
Then, in front of everyone, Chen Hao nodded. "What she said is true. Indeed, that day I couldn't replace an expensive car in the BMW shop. I was annoyed because those cars were really too cheap!" Chen Hao said nonchalantly.
