I Am Born With A Silver Spoon -
Chapter 88 How Could There Be Someone So Poor
"Auntie, don't say that!" Lin Yiyi widened her eyes.
She didn't think that her aunt would say something so cruel.
Do you know who is standing before you? A true heir! His family supports the whole Lin family behind the scenes!
Lin Yiyi was shocked.
But even though he was scolded, Chen Hao was only slightly angered. He was already numb to these voices of disdain from long ago.
Lin Hongxia wanted to scold him some more so that he would back off voluntarily.
At this moment, her phone rang, so she picked up the phone.
"Yes? Wu Qiang? Didn't I say you can come next time? What? You're already at the door? Alright, let me come meet you!"
The call was from Wu Qiang. Lin Hongxia had already told him that he didn't need to come today. Unexpectedly, Wu Qiang still came.
Lin Hongxia thought that since Lin Yiyi's boyfriend was coming, and though she fancied Wu Qiang more and wanted Lin Yiyi to meet with him so they could unite to become more powerful, what if Yiyi's boyfriend was more excellent and handsome than Wu Qiang?
What if Yiyi's boyfriend was even richer than Wu Qiang?
What if...
All in all, Lin Hongxia thought about countless what ifs, but she didn't expect the current situation to end up in such a way.
She didn't want to think about it anymore.
Yiyi and Chen Hao would have to break up. She would talk to her cousin, who was Lin Yiyi's father, later on. She wanted to know what was going on!
"Whoa, whoa, Wu Qiang is here! Yiyi, Wu Qiang will also go to the cruise party. You can get to know him more!"
Su Mei and the others had been treating Chen Hao like he was nothing from the start. Now they wanted to bring Wu Qiang and Lin Yiyi together. Just then, Wu Qiang followed Lin Hongxia in.
"Wu Qiang, you're looking even more handsome!" As soon as Su Mei saw him, she smiled sweetly.
Wu Qiang stood in front of them, tall and handsome. He wore gold and silver on his wrists. At first sight, one could tell that he was rich.
"Mei, flattery gets you everywhere!" Wu Qiang waved while clutching a watch in his hand. He grinned.
His eyes scanned the room and finally fell on Lin Yiyi, who was as beautiful as a fairy.
"Let me guess. You must be Aunt Lin's niece, Miss Lin Yiyi. The beautiful Lin Yiyi from Jin Ling, right?"
In fact, Wu Qiang had met Lin Yiyi a long time ago. Both of them studied in Jiang Nan College. Lin Yiyi was a beautiful girl, so how could he not know about her?
One could say that with just a single look, Wu Qiang had fallen in love with this girl.
She was extremely beautiful, so beautiful that she made his heart tremble!
So, as soon as he heard about the meeting today and that it was deliberately arranged by Aunt Lin, Wu Qiang was really happy. But then she seemed to have changed her mind.
Wu Qiang quickly found out what was happening and the more they didn't let him come, the more he wanted to come!
"Well, yes. Hello!" Lin Yiyi said politely but she immediately stood beside Chen Hao after greeting him.
Am I that unattractive? Wu Qiang's excitement dimmed.
Then he turned his gaze to Chen Hao.
"Are you Yiyi's boyfriend?" Wu Qiang smiled, giving the impression of being generous and competent. "Yes, I am!"
"So you studied in Jiang Nan College? But I haven't seen you before!
Wu Qiang wore a smile but his smile suggested a hint of superiority.
"I'm not from Jiang Nan College, but from Jin Ling College!"
However, Chen Hao had had plenty of practice by now. Regardless of how people treated him or intimidated him, he could keep his countenance unchanged and his expression calm.
"Jin Ling College, that's cool. By the way, what does your family do? How did you manage to court our goddess Yiyi?"
"Wu Qiang, let me tell you. He's from the countryside. His family runs a kiosk in town! Can't you tell from what he's wearing?" Su Mei hurriedly answered.
What was the highest state of ignoring a person? It was when the person was clearly in front of you but you still pretended the person didn't exist.
Normally, one wouldn't say these harsh words in front of another person.
But now, Su Mei didn't even care so one could imagine how much she despised Chen Hao.
"Oh, so you come from the countryside. It's quite a feat for you to study in Jin Ling. By the way, brother, if you have any difficulty in Jin Ling College, you can tell me. My father knows your principal and he can arrange everything with just a word! If you want to apply for student subsidies, you can also contact me. Although I'm from Jiang Nan College, everything is still related! Oh by the way, have you applied for subsidies before?"
As soon as Wu Qiang saw that Su Mei ignored him blatantly, he had already become contemptuous. So, he didn't really pay attention to his words.
"Yes, I have been applying for three years in a row. Before, I had to pay my tuition with my student subsidies!"
Chen Hao originally wanted to embarrass Lin Yiyi's aunt but now, Chen Hao decided to keep a low profile. There were three reasons.
First of all, Chen Hao did apply for subsidies and did use it to pay for tuition fees. This was true and there was no need to lie about it.
Secondly, Chen Hao thought that even if he helped Lin Yiyi, he didn't need to help her so thoroughly. Chen Hao could see that Lin Yiyi didn't just want him to pretend to be her boyfriend. She actually wanted to develop their relationship further.
Chen Hao wasn't a narcissist but he could really feel it.
Although Chen Hao liked pretty girls and he basically liked them as soon as he laid eyes on them, it was due to his nature. He wasn't that much of a scumbag.
He had always wanted to replace a girl who really had chemistry with him to be his girlfriend. He wanted them to last forever.
But Lin Yiyi was definitely not that girl. When they first met, Lin Yiyi had collided with him and she had beaten him until he was unrecognizable.
So, Chen Hao didn't want to help her thoroughly.
Thirdly, Chen Hao didn't want to reveal his identity anymore. He was very uncomfortable being in the limelight and being looked at by everyone else, regardless of what they thought.
"Damn, he even paid his tuition fees with his student subsidies for three years! How poor is he?"
"Oh my god! This is really unheard of. He is so poor and so shameless to apply for student subsidies for three years! I would have died from embarrassment to even apply once!" Su Mei and the other girls discussed.
Lin Hongxia frowned even more. Was Yiyi out of her mind?
Why would she pick this kind of person?
"Haha, it is said that the children of poor families often settle down earlier. Brother, at least you have achieved this. But in the future, if you are short of money, I can lend you some. After all, Yiyi and I are alumni. That means we are friends from now on!" Wu Qiang smiled.
Even though there was a slight hint of contempt in his voice, it was nevertheless detectable.
He was obviously very good at bloodless battles. He ridiculed Chen Hao in public with every sentence that he spoke but no one could pick out any problems.
He was worthy of being the President of the Student Council. His language ability was very strong.
"Thanks but no thanks!" Chen Hao smiled lightly.
"Don't be embarrassed. By the way, brother, since you go to school in Jin Ling City, have you been to the major scenic spots? You have to check out Jin Ling Commercial Street. There is also Hot Spring Villa. Since you are at Jin Ling, you have to visit the Villa. How about this? You can come to me later and I'll take you there. My father knows the owner of a restaurant on the commercial street. If you want to go, I know someone who can bring you in!"
"Oh, Wu Qiang, have you forgotten what Yiyi's job is? If Chen Hao wanted to go, Yiyi would just have to say the word!" Su Mei grinned.
"Oh, you're right! How could I forget? I just assumed that since Chen Hao is poor, he has not been anywhere before. He will probably be going to Jin Ling Commercial Street more often now since he is dating Yiyi!"
"Damn, I forgot all about it! Haha!" Wu Qiang smacked his head while laughing.
