Chapter 4 Birthday Present
After the door was pushed open, they saw that it wasn’t Chen Hao.
“Xu Nan! Why are you here?”
Ma Xiaonan’s face changed the moment she saw Xu Nan.
Although they were classmates, Ma Xiaonan had yelled at Xu Nan before.
This morning, after Ma Xiaonan knew that Xu Nan had toyed with Chen Hao, she gave him a good scolding.
She didn’t think that he would be this thick-skinned to actually be here!
“Xiao Nan, are you still mad? I was only joking around with Chen Hao yesterday. Who knew that he would actually deliver it!”
Xu Nan laughed heartily.
Some of his roommates came too. They even brought gifts.
Speaking of which, Ma Xiaonan’s family could also be considered rich. She tried to help Chen Hao countless times, but Chen Hao was
unwilling to accept her help.
Xu Nan was Ma Xiaonan’s classmate in high school.
“Xiao Nan, the Chen Hao that he mentioned, is he the same Chen Hao that you were going to introduce me to? What happened?” Zhao
Yifan’s beautiful eyes furrowed slightly as she casually asked.
As soon as Xu Nan saw Zhao Yifan, his eyes gleamed. In actual fact, he had long wanted to be acquainted with Zhao Yifan as she was the
hottest girl in the college’s broadcasting department.
Yes, he was this thick-skinned and was putting aside his dignity to apologize to Ma Xiaonan. To put it bluntly, he had already known that
Zhao Yifan would come to Ma Xiaonan’s birthday party.
When he heard this, Xu Nan immediately said, “Oh, Miss Yi Fan, Chen Hao is in our class. He is quite a poor guy. Yesterday… Hahaha!”
The moment he recalled yesterday’s incident whereby Chen Hao had sent Durex to his ex-girlfriend to help her with her sex life, Xu Nan
nearly laughed himself to death. He told her the entire story in a few words.
“You better shut your mouth up!” Ma Xiaonan immediately flew into a rage and glared at Xu Nan.
Zhao Yifan and her beautiful roommates looked incredulous.
They couldn’t believe that there was such a poor and pathetic person.
Chen Hao’s roommates’ faces also looked grim. Nothing good comes out of Xu Nan’s filthy mouth.
“Ok, ok, ok… I won’t talk about it anymore!”
Xu Nan smiled broadly and said, “Xiao Nan, come and see the gift that I bought you…”
At this moment, there was a light knock on the door of the private room.
Following that, the door opened. This time, Chen Hao entered with a red-colored plastic bag!
“Chen Hao, you came!”
Ma Xiaonan immediately stood up and smiled.
Chen Hao nodded his head. He instantly noticed that Xu Nan was sneering at him.
In the past, he would have felt inferior when he met a second generation heir, but now… Haha.
He’s Chen Hao?
Zhao Yifan also raised her eyes to look at Chen Hao.
Zhao Yifan really wanted to get a boyfriend. His family might not need to be extremely wealthy, it was even fine for him to be a bit ordinary.
However, he needed to be attractive and had good traits that would attract her attention.
At that moment, although she thought Chen Hao was quite good-looking, his entire attire from top to bottom definitely did not exceed 150
bucks.
He was extremely ordinary!
Especially when she heard Xu Nan mentioning Chen Hao’s deeds just now, her impression of Chen Hao had sunk to the bottom of the abyss.
Zhao Yifan’s face was full of disappointment.
“Chen Hao, this is Yi Fan and these are her roommates. Let’s get to know each other!”
Ma Xiaonan smiled and introduced them to each other.
Chen Hao nodded his head. “My name is Chen Hao, nice to meet you, Miss Yi Fan!”
Chen Hao reached out his hand in a polite manner.
However, Zhao Yifan did not even look at him. She merely turned her head and continued drinking her fruit juice.
Chen Hao’s hand dangled in mid air, and he could only retract his hand back sheepishly.
Ma Xiaonan knew that her best friend had always been this way. If she was attracted to you, she would chat a little bit more. However, if she
wasn’t attracted to you, then the situation would be awful as she wouldn’t even acknowledge you.
Chen Hao did not say anything.
He prepared to sit down.
At this moment, Xu Nan’s gaze fell on the red-colored plastic bag in Chen Hao’s hands.
He smirked in that instant. “Yo, Chen Hao, what gift did you buy for Xiao Nan’s birthday? Why don’t you take it out for everyone else to
see!”
Chen Hao’s dorm leader could not take it anymore. “Xu Nan, why do you always have something against Chen Hao?” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Xu Nan laughed heartily. He always felt a sense of validation when he ridiculed others.
At that moment, he glanced coldly at Chen Hao and took out his gift first.
It happened to be a black-colored designer bag.
“Xiao Nan, this is my gift to you, a Hermès bag!”
When Xu Nan took out the bag, he instantly attracted the attention of Zhao Yifan and her beautiful roommates.
“A Hermès Lindy bag? The market price of this bag is 8,999 right?”
All the beautiful girls changed the way they looked at Xu Nan immediately.
This guy was just too generous.
Even the usually aloof Zhao Yifan couldn’t help but give Xu Nan a second look.
“It’s not that expensive, my dad knows the district manager of Hermès very well. I bought it for 7,999 since we were acquainted with each
other.”
Xu Nan smiled and basked in the crowd’s admiration.
Ma Xiaonan really hated Xu Nan, but as the saying goes, ‘You can never hit a smiling person’. Thus, she could only accept the present.
“Hermès Lindy bag is the latest luxury bag that was launched by Hermès. It is very popular in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. The price of
this exact same model is at least 12,000 in those countries!” Zhao Yifan gave it a glance and said.
Xu Nan raised his eyebrows. “Miss Yi Fan, I did not know that you were so knowledgeable in luxury goods.”
Zhao Yifan looked at Xu Nan and gave him a light smile. “I wanted to buy this model the last time but the price was a little bit too
expensive…”
Xu Nan quickly said, “Miss Yi Fan, I can give it to you as a present when you celebrate your birthday next time. It’s only 8,000 or 9,000. It’s
nothing to me. In addition, the Hermès store near the entrance of our school knows us very well.”
Zhao Yifan remained silent. She only smiled.
She did not know Ma Xiaonan’s high school classmate, Xu Nan, in the past. She only heard rumors that he was a vagabond.
Unexpectedly, he was such a magnanimous person.
Zhao Yifan’s impression of him improved a lot.
After that, Chen Hao’s dorm leader and the rest of them also presented their gifts respectively.
Of course they weren’t as expensive as Xu Nan’s luxury item, but it was still worth around 300 to 400.
Chen Hao did not know what to say. He planned to give his present to Ma Xiaonan after the event.
However at this moment, Xu Nan looked at the red-colored plastic bag in Chen Hao’s hand and smiled evilly. He said,
“Chen Hao, I begged you to let us see your gift just now, so why don’t you take it out and show it to everybody now? Look at the plastic bag
you’re holding. See how festive it looks!”
“Xu Nan, shut your mouth up. Whatever Chen Hao gives me, I will still be happy!”
Ma Xiaonan warned Xu Nan again.
However, Ma Xiaonan still cast a hopeful look in Chen Hao’s direction.
Chen Hao felt a little regretful.
He did not wait for that additional half an hour as he was in a hurry. If only he knew earlier, he would have asked the promoter to wrap this
bag up properly.
It was supposed to be a simple gathering. But who knew that b*stard Xu Nan would come!
“Xiao Nan, I bought you a bag!”
Chen Hao stood up and peeled back the red-colored plastic bag from the bag.
Zhao Yifan’s brows knitted tightly together and the rest of her roommates also gave him a look of disdain.
This person was such a loser and a disgrace!
“Wow!”
When Chen Hao took out the bag, Xu Nan shouted, “Hermès! Hahaha! Chen Hao actually bought a Hermès for her as a gift! Such a luxurious
item!”
“Chen Hao! Tell me quickly, where did you buy this bag from? It must be quite expensive right?” Xu Nan’s words made all the girls laugh
heartily.
Zhao Yifan shook her head slightly.
She initially thought that although Chen Hao was poor, at least he was a person with integrity. Honestly speaking, Chen Hao was still qualified
to be an ordinary friend.
But now, Zhao Yifan really looked down upon Chen Hao.
“This is Hermès's 200-years Anniversary Collector’s Edition bag. There are only 200 of these bags in the entire world. Each bag is worth at
least 300,000!”
The moment Zhao Yifan saw it, she instantly recognized it.
“There are counterfeits sold online and they are priced at approximately 150. Even if you were a prideful loser, nobody would buy it to parade
it around the streets. It is shameful to carry around this counterfeit high-end luxury product!”
Zhao Yifan also treated him rudely. She looked at Chen Hao squarely. The person in front of her really made her vomit!
Ma Xiaonan thought that Chen Hao would buy her some small gadgets and gizmos. She did not expect him to buy her a counterfeit item.
But, Ma Xiaonan still said happily, “Chen Hao, no matter what, thank you for buying me a gift. Next time you don’t have to spend this kind of
money anymore, 150 is still very expensive!”
Chen Hao felt like crying but no tears came. He wanted to say that this was the real thing. However, when he saw Zhao Yifan and her
roommates’ scornful gaze, he guessed that even if he told them the truth, they would not believe him. Not only that, they would look down on
him even further.
At this moment, Zhao Yifan looked at Ma Xiaonan and said, “Xiaonan, since when did you meet such an unreliable person?”
Ma Xiaonan saw that Chen Hao would soon be placed in an embarrassing situation. Thus, she quickly changed the topic and said, “Ok ok, it’s
my birthday today. We are all friends. Come come, let’s toast to this occasion!”
Zhao Yifan and her roommates still looked at Chen Hao with disgust and did not react.
Xu Nan and the rest of them were smirking at the sides.
Chen Hao saw that Ma Xiaonan was caught in between him and her friends and he felt awkward.
He immediately got up and said, “Happy birthday, Xiaonan. However, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do back in my dorm. I
will be going back first. Have fun everyone!”
Chen Hao knew that he was unneeded.
He got up to leave.
“Chen Hao!”
