âDamn it, Wu Qian, you are so irritating. What are you doing?â Chen Hao couldnât help but say as he jumped in shock.
âWhat tone is that, Chen Hao? Iâm just concerned about you. I know you hit the lottery, but I donât know how much you got. I just want to tell you that people like you are very simple. In society, you are equal to a fool, so even if you land in a lot of money, you still need to be careful so as not to fall into othersâ
traps, or else youâll still end up poor!â Wu Qian scolded.
It was true; if Chen Hao received a large sum of money, he might need to invest in the scenic spot. Wu Qian could not think of any other likelihood. On top of that, he felt very uncomfortable on the inside.
After she finished scolding, Wu Qian left the place, full of anger.
âThis little girl, if she knew who I really am, that would be a disaster.â Chen Hao smiled bitterly.
He let Wang Biao get back to work as he threw a glance around his office; Chen Hao was also planning to leave. He definitely wouldnât be with Wu Qian, and she didnât want to be with him now anyway.
Right at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the office door.
âAssistant Manager Wang, Iâve brought the newcomers to report to you.â It was a clear and beautiful female voice.
The moment he heard the female voice, Chen Hao was slightly startled. Then, he said, âCome in.â
The door opened slowly with a click and a girl with long hair and a good figure walked in. She was dressed in office wear and had a document folder in her arms, and behind her was another similarly beautiful girl.
âManager Wang, I amâ¦â The first girl took the initiative to introduce herself, but when she saw the person in front of her properly and was about to continue speaking, the words were stuck in her throat.
When Chen Hao saw the two people in front of him, he had an embarrassed expression.
âY-Young Master Chen, itâs you! I-I didnât know that you would be here.â The girl suddenly blushed and bowed her head, ashamed; she didnât dare to look at Chen Haoâs face.
âXueqing and Shihan? Why are you in Xiao Quan City? Werenât you in Ping An County?â The girls before him were obviously Jiang Xueqing and Li Shihan, which caused Chen Hao some embarrassment.
The time when he discovered the unworthy workers in the company, Jiang Xueqing had learned of his identity. Meanwhile, Li Shihan saw the sales document and learned of his identity.
Previously, something had happened between him and Jiang Xueqing and Li Shihan. However, back during high school days, he was very close to both girls. For him, Jian Xueqing even fought with Li Wenyang who always beat and bullied Chen Hao.
The truth was that his high school days were dark, but because of Jiang Xueqing and Li Shihan, Chen Hao quite enjoyed his high school life.
Although many people looked down on him, there were still people who treated him sincerely. This was also why even after so much had happened, Chen Hao was still sentimental toward the two girls.
Although they no longer had the relationship they used to have, Chen Hao was not being too unkind.
âYoung Master Chen, Iâm now working in the Human Resources Department now. Shihan just joined the company. And since tomorrow is your birthday, the company sent over a few good-looking girls to escort you.â
Right, Jiang Xueqing and Li Shihan even knew when Chen Haoâs birthday was. However, he felt that something was weird.
âSo thatâs the case. Uh, Wang Biao went to decorate the venue.â Chen Hao could not stay lying down, so he stood up to speak to them; the atmosphere was very awkward.
âOh right, Shihan, why are you looking for a job? What about Ding Hao?â Chen Hao asked. Although Chen Hao and Li Shihan had a history, all that was in the past and there were no more feelings.
âWhen Ding Hao found out that you are Young Master Chen, he was so shocked that he didnât leave the house for a few days. Besides, he knows of our previous relationship. Thereforeâ¦â Li Shihan could not continue with her explanation.
From the looks of it, the matter of Li Shihan coming looking for a job was somewhat related to him.
Chen Hao smiled, embarrassed, then said, âBut I didnât expect the both of you to spend my birthday with me, Iâm embarrassed to do that. Haha, come to think about it, the best birthday I had during high school was in the canteen.â
When Li Shihan and Jiang Xueqing heard this, they remembered the incident too.
During their high school days, nobody wanted to hang out with Chen Hao, and nobody cared about his birthday.
During the summer holiday after the university entrance exam, when they went back to school to get their high school certificates, that day happened to be Chen Haoâs birthday. So, Li Shihan suggested to Jiang Xueqing that they celebrate his birthday at the canteen.
At that time, the Sophomore military training had already started. Li Shihan and Jiang XueqingâChen Lin too, because Chen Lin had a good relationship with Li Shihanâhalf-heartedly celebrated Chen Haoâs birthday. They even bought Chen Hao quite a big birthday cake. That was the first time in his life that Chen Hao ate cake.
He was very touched; so, he affirmed Li Shihan and Jiang Xueqing as his friends.
But after that⦠Everybody knew what happened.
When university started, Chen Hao stayed in contact with Li Shihan and Jiang Xueqing. However, they eventually stopped replying to his messages.
Two years later, Chen Hao saw Li Shihan at Jin Ling; he was very happy.
Li Shihan admitted to herself that she would never forget the moment she bumped into Chen Hao. He really wanted to talk to her, but she thought that he was embarrassing and so she tried to avoid him.
Later, she humiliated him over and over again. There were even a few times when she went over the line, and even physically harmed him.
However, Chen Hao still helped her and didnât hate her. It was only after she went overboard that Chen Hao slowly became cold toward her.
As for Jiang Queqing, when she met Chen Hao, the truth was that she looked down on him. Because she was trying to be polite, she entertained and joked with him. However, Chen Hao actually thought that she was sincere. He even invited her to attend a student gathering together as his partner.
The fact was she already had plans with Li Wenyang that day. So, for the whole day, Jiang Xueqing felt uneasy, because Li Wenyang had beaten Chen Hao up badly in school and Chen Hao didnât dare to retaliate. The worst was when he used a stool to smash Chen Haoâs back on a podium; he was Chen Haoâs sworn enemy. As Chen Haoâs previous friend, she unexpectedly had such a good relationship with Li Wenyang; Chen Hao was so disappointed back then.
Now that they knew that Chen Hao was the super wealthy Young Master Chen, Li Shihan and Jiang Xueqing were exceptionally ashamed.
Both of them happened to think at the same time that Chen Hao had changed, that he was not the old Chen Hao anymore. However, the reality was that Chen Hao was still the old Chen Hao; he never changed, but the ones who did change were them.
