I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Chapter 125

“Chen Hao, come out for a bit!”

Meng Cairu scanned the classroom with a cold look on her face before asking Chen Hao to step outside.

“Chen Hao, I need to tell you something. Tomorrow, one of my ex-college mate’s husband is having an opening ceremony for his bar and they are short-staffed. If you are free tonight, you should head there and offer yourself as a part-timer. The salary there is much higher compared to the other bars,” Meng Cairu said casually with arms crossed.

“Part-time? I…” Chen Hao was stunned.

“What do you mean ‘I’? Do you understand a word I just said? He is only hiring on that particular night as there would be many people during the opening ceremony and he is short- handed. Do you think that a guy like you could hold down a permanent job there? Do you even know the location of his bar? It is at the Jin Ling Commercial Street! Do you understand what this means? This means that from today onward, he will only be hiring tall and handsome guys.”

“I…”

“What do you mean ‘I’? It’s settled then. I will be attending their opening ceremony tomorrow night and I am bringing you along as well.”

As soon as she finished, Meng Cairu rolled her eyes at Chen Hao and left.

I… Oh f*ck you! Chen Hao cursed inwardly.

He wanted to tell her that he did not want to go because there wasn’t any need for it. Besides, he had had enough of her domineering attitude.

For the past three years, he had to do whatever Meng Cairu wanted.

When he pictured Meng Cairu’s half-naked body that night and compared it to her cold haughty manner just now, he felt like laughing.

However, the situation was a bit awkward now and it wouldn’t be appropriate if he did not show up.

Sigh! I better go then. Besides, it’s just for a day.

Chen Hao scratched his head and went back to class.

The morning classes were boring but it wasn’t long before noon arrived and classes were dismissed.

“Chen Hao, are you free in the afternoon? Let’s have a meal together.”

At this moment, he received a text message from Zhao Yifan.

The words were dull and meaningless. However, her message made Chen Hao recall that he still had some unresolved matters with her.

Zhao Yifan became his girlfriend due to a misunderstanding that occurred yesterday and this matter was giving Chen Hao a huge headache.

Furthermore, it was obvious that Zhao Yifan wanted him to get close to her.

Truthfully, if she had become his girlfriend back then, Chen Hao would have been happy even if she used to look down upon him. He would even have treated her well. After all, she was a really gorgeous girl!

However, Chen Hao’s heart only yearned for Su Tongxin right now.

If he were to continue this ambiguous relationship with Zhao Yifan, then he would really be a jerk. Because why should he continue this relationship if he did not love her?

It would be better if he cleared things up with Zhao Yifan. Otherwise, the misunderstanding between them would deepen and he would be in hot soup.

Chen Hao thought about it and decided to answer bluntly in a single sentence.

“Zhao Yifan, let’s meet up in the garden after classes. Please come alone as I need to clear up something with you.”

“Ok!” Zhao Yifan replied swiftly.

Chen Hao headed to the garden right after his class. Even then, Zhao Yifan was already waiting for him there.

It was obvious that she was all dolled up specially for today.

Her face lit up with delight when she saw Chen Hao.

“Chen Hao, you came!” She smiled sweetly and that made her devastatingly beautiful.

Though the moment she saw Chen Hao, Zhao Yifan felt conflicted.

In the past, she really treated him with disdain, the kind that went bone-deep. However, she suddenly realized now that he looked quite handsome and his aura was especially attractive. Yet, she did not know why.

“I was going to let you treat me to a meal yesterday night but that’s the kind of attitude I get from you? Why did you do that?”

Zhao Yifan walked toward Chen Hao. He felt as if he was in a dream when he smelled the sweet scent emanating from her body as the stunning beauty that he couldn’t have in the past was standing shyly in front of him now.

He chuckled to himself as he thought that this was too dramatic. Even so, he still planned to tell her the truth.

“Because I don’t want to be in a relationship with you anymore!” Chen Hao said bluntly.

“What did you say?”

“Erm, Zhao Yifan, I think there is a huge misunderstanding here. I-I wasn’t pursuing you at that time. Ahem! I shall tell you everything today. I went to your department that day to find Su Tongxin as I wanted to ask her out for a meal. However, the moment I stepped foot into your department, the girls over there surrounded me as they thought I wanted to confess my love. Then…”

Chen Hao told her everything that he had been repressing inside his heart.

Zhao Yifan’s chest was rising and falling rapidly. Every single word was like a sharp thorn that pierced her heart deeply. Her petite figure couldn’t help but shiver.

“Then, I happened to appear at that exact moment and mistakenly thought that you were confessing to me. I even agreed to it, am I right?” Zhao Yifan frowned.

“That’s right. Moreover, with the atmosphere at that time, it would have been embarrassing if I were to explain the situation right away then,” answered Chen Hao while lowering his head.

“Haha! Now I understand everything. I am a complete idiot! An idiot who was toyed by another person!” Zhao Yifan scolded with a cold look on her face.

It was akin to have shown excessive passion to a cold person yet resulted in having eggs thrown onto her face.

Zhao Yifan felt like a joke.

The first time she fell in love was with Zhuang Qiang, whom she had mistaken as the person who helped her out. However, after getting into a relationship with him, it ended up with her being humiliated.

And now, the second time she fell in love was with Chen Hao, who had always given her a helping hand. Yet, she had once again made a fool out of herself.

Enough was enough!

She only wanted to find a rich and sophisticated boyfriend. It was supposed to be a simple matter but why did she find it so difficult to pull it off?

Slap! Zhao Yifan slapped Chen Hao angrily across the face.

“Chen Hao, you are such a jerk! You think you could simply toy around with me just because you have some money? Just you wait, one day I will find a boyfriend that is even richer than you and make you eat your words today!”

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. After slapping Chen Hao, she gave him a vengeful look and turned around to leave.

Chen Hao touched his stinging face.

A bitter smile formed at the corner of his mouth.

Sigh! I think I shouldn’t be telling you this, but how could you find another person in the world who is richer than me? Ahem!

Anyway, the matter was finally resolved after he had told her everything.

Chen Hao was glad now. Besides, he did not hurt Zhao Yifan too deeply.

Let’s just leave it at that.

Chen Hao sat down quietly in the garden.

He enjoyed the view by the lake and this rare moment of peace.

Just then, his mobile phone suddenly rang. Chen Hao was delighted when he saw the number.

It was Su Tongxin!

Since yesterday, Su Tongxin had completely severed all ties with Chen Hao. Therefore, he did not expect her to call.

He quickly answered the phone.

“Chen Hao, I am sorry to bother you but may I know whether you are free right now? I have something to tell you.” Su Tongxin sounded strange on the phone.

Chen Hao smiled bitterly and said, “Of course I am free, I don’t have a girlfriend anyway.”

“Haha, yesterday’s confession was sensational, did you think that I would miss it?”

Chen Hao could obviously tell what Su Tongxin meant.

He proceeded to explain everything to Su Tongxin in detail.

“Ok then!” Su Tongxin replied indifferently even after listening to Chen Hao’s explanation. She did not comment any further whether she believed him or not.

“Why did you call me?” asked Chen Hao.

“Do I need a reason to call you?”

Su Tongxin sounded slightly annoyed.

“But I thought that you said that you have something to tell me. What happened?”

“Nothing!” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Beep… Beep…

She hung up the phone immediately.

Chen Hao nearly went mad, absolutely mad.

It was so difficult to be around women, especially the brilliant ones.

You could never figure out what was going on inside their heads forever.

Sigh! Forget it, I shall go and find her…
