The poorest rich man novel (Chen Hao) novel Chapter 96

The splash of red wine from Wang Xiaoti stunned Chen Hao.

This woman is crazy. She is most definitely lunatic.

“Xiaoti, what happened?” Han Siyu asked with concern. She had no idea she was the reason Wang Xiaoti was acting up in jealousy.

“Nothing. Siyu, I am feeling rather unwell so I will make a move first!”

Wang Xiaoti did not retrieve her phone and she left right away with just her bag.

She had no idea why she reacted like that as well.

Ordinary Guy is incredible but he doesn't even know that I exist! Why am I so jealous of something I can’t control?

Nobody knew what went through Wang Xiaoti’s mind.

Wang Xiaoti felt extremely agitated when everyone was discussing how Ordinary Guy was crushing on Han Siyu.

Ladies were extremely jealous beings and this attribute was innate.

The matter would be worse when two beautiful girls were facing off against each other.

Thus, she was furious and needed to let off some steam. She could not direct her anger at Han Siyu so she conveniently chose to take it out on Chen Hao, the loser.

She had never stopped looking down on Chen Hao. After her fit of anger, she disregarded his presence and left.

“Chen Hao, it's all your fault! You made Xiaoti angry and caused her to leave! I regret inviting you here! Why did I even invite you?” Han Siyu’s gaze at Chen Hao got even colder.

Chen Hao disregarded Han Siyu and whatever she said. The only thing on his mind was getting revenge on Wang Xiaoti.

As such, he also left and followed in Wang Xiaoti’s footsteps.

Oh, after splashing me with red wine and ridiculing me, you think you can just leave?

Chen Hao was a changed man and no longer the man he was before.

He decided to make an example out of Wang Xiaoti and demolish her self-esteem.

However, he lost sight of Wang Xiaoti when he came out. That made Chen Hao extremely annoyed and resentful.

Just then, a message popped up on Chen Hao’s phone.

He took a look and saw that it came from his classmate, Hao Lanlan.

She seemed to have said that she was feeling unwell, thus she did not attend Han Siyu’s celebratory party.

Upon seeing the content of the message, Chen Hao’s heart skipped a beat.

“Chen Hao, why are humans constantly in pain? There was nothing I could do to help my family. I only know how to drag them down. I have been fighting for my entire life and yet I still cannot catch up with other people. I am so useless. I’ve made my dad ashamed for his entire life. I could not even buy new clothes for my sister. Now that my sister is sick, all I could do is look on helplessly as her sister. She couldn't even afford to visit the hospital. My family paid for my tuition fees yet there was nothing I could do to repay them!”

“Chen Hao, tell me! What can I do to alleviate the pain?”

Hao Lanlan sent him a long text message.

Chen Hao realized that something was wrong. She could not help her family and was blaming herself for it. From her last sentence, Chen Hao could tell that she was planning to do something.

That gave Chen Hao a huge shock.

Hao Lanlan was a member of their impoverished group. She was usually a quiet person. However, Chen Hao had been observing her in secret. He found out that although she displayed a sense of inferiority on the surface, deep down she was extremely competitive.

She wanted to be better than everyone else.

Not only that, she was extremely ambitious. Of course she wanted to live comfortably but she wanted more than just an ordinary life.

She was a lot more driven than Chen Hao was.

However, reality was harsh. The more you thought and dreamt about something, the worse the situation became.

These problems that oppressed her had been around for a long while. This time around, her sister fell sick and she most definitely had no money. Not even a single penny.

This situation must have really hurt her self esteem. Chen Hao empathized with her.

Chen Hao was worried that she would be foolish and ended up hurting herself. Thus, Chen Hao quickly asked, “Hao Lanlan, where are you now? Are you in the dormitory?”

“Yes, I am at the dormitory!”

Hao Lanlan replied in an instant. There were not many people she could talk to in class. Chen Hao was one of the people that she trusted.

Chen Hao had no idea where Wang Xiaoti went. If he were to return to the party, he would face the mocking and sneering of Han Siyu and the others.

Also, Chen Hao did not want to reveal his identity just yet.

Furthemore, Hao Lanlan had worked with Chen Hao in the same impoverished group for three years. Even though they were not exactly the best of friends, Chen Hao sympathized with her. Therefore, Chen Hao could not bear to leave Hao Lanlan alone by herself.

Chen Hao decided not to return to the party. Instead, he took a cab and went over to the girl dormitory. He signed himself in at the counter, where a middle-aged woman was working.

Then, he went up to the room where Hao Lanlan was residing.

“Chen Hao?” Hao Lanlan opened the door and was surprised to see Chen Hao. Her eyes were swollen from crying.

“Hao Lanlan, are you okay? I am here to check in on you!” Chen Hao said.

“I am alright. No need to trouble you. I feel that there is no point in living anymore. My presence only drags other people down and I am redundant!” Hao Lanlan sat on her bed, covered her eyes and started sobbing again.

“Stop spouting nonsense! Hao Lanlan, I was the same as you back then. When I was young, my father told me that our family was in huge debt and we were very poor. My sister started working even before graduating from high school because of me! My sister had excellent grades and yet she gave up on her high school exam!”

Chen Hao wanted to console Hao Lanlan. Due to the fact that both of them experienced being very poor, memories of his past came back to his mind.

It worked and Hao Lanlan stopped crying. She stared at Chen Hao.

Chen Hao continued saying, “Did you know the amount of pressure that was on my shoulders? The expectations of my family members were weighing down on me. There was only one way out for me! I studied so hard and fought with my life in order to succeed! I was done being looked down by other people!”

“At the end of the day, so what? I was still constantly bullied and ridiculed by others. Whenever I met someone, I always felt I was of a lower status than them and I was cheap. When I saw girls, I did not dare to talk to them. I felt that they would look down on me!”

“The truth was that they did look down on me and constantly mocked me. However, I told myself that I have to continue living my own life happily. All the humiliation would eventually fade away. Ultimately, I came to a conclusion!” Chen Hao was starting to become emotional.

Hao Lanlan hurriedly asked, “What conclusion did you come to?”

“The conclusion is that a person should focus on their current circle of influence. Only aim to complete things that are within the current stage of your life. That way, you won't suffer and be in pain. Think about it, you are currently studying and expanding your knowledge yet you are thinking about how to make money and earn more money. Is this realistic?”

“Yes, I do want to make a lot of money! However, I am unable to do so. It’s easy for you to say. You won a lottery and you are much luckier than others!” Hao Lanlan said disappointedly.

“I am indeed lucky but you have to believe that eventually that day will come to you as well! There’s light at the end of every tunnel. Don't be oppressed by the situation. What you should be thinking about is a solution to resolve this!” Chen Hao advised.

Hao Lanlan kept her head low and replied, “Alright, I understand. Chen Hao, thank you. Give me some time to think about it!”

Chen Hao had not given advice to others before thus he had no idea how to do so.

However, now that he knew about Hao Lanlan’s problem, he could not sit by idly. After all, she was a decent classmate and he had to lend a helping hand.

Bang!

At this moment, they could hear the dormitory door being slammed on.

It was as if the people outside wanted to smash through the door.

As such, Hao Lanlan walked over to open the door.

A slightly plump middle-aged woman rushed in. She had a wrinkled face and her eyebrows were tattooed. They looked like two caterpillars lying on her face.

“No wonder you refused to open the door. You cheap woman! You were hiding a man in your dorm! Your father was still telling me how hardworking you were in school. Bullsh*t, you cheap woman!”

“Mother! Stop spouting nonsense! This is Chen Hao, he is my classmate and he's here to pay me a visit!” Hao Lanlan started crying.

“Don't address me as your mother! I am not your mother! Whoever you are, what are you doing here? Are you trying to rape my daughter? I am going to report you to the police now!” The middle-aged woman took out her phone.

Hao Lanlan panicked. She quickly said, “Chen Hao, leave first. Nonetheless, thank you for dropping by today!”

“Alright!”

Chen Hao was tempted to scold this crazy b*tch. However, since she was Hao Lanlan’s mother, he was in no position to say anything.

“What kind of mother is this?!” Chen Hao silently muttered under his breath and left.

He had no idea if Hao Lanlan’s mother was her biological mother. How could her mother address her as a cheap woman and scold her like that?

Chen Hao was feeling extremely unhappy. He had been reprimanded for no reason multiple times today by crazy b*tches.

Thus, he planned to take a walk in the park.

Right then, his phone rang. His sister was calling him.

Chen Hao picked it up and wanted to ask about the matter of Jin Ling Commercial Street.

Just as the call connected and before he could say anything, he heard the nervous voice of his sister.

“Brother, something bad has happened! I'm in big trouble!”
