The poorest rich man novel (Chen Hao) novel Chapter 184

“Look at this! What an exquisitely made jade bracelet!”

When they opened the packaging, everyone was astonished.

Their surprise grew even greater when they saw the receipt that Chen Hao brought back.

These two items cost more than two hundred thousand!

“Let us see it too!” Lin Jiao requested while jumping in excitement on the other end.

Yang Hui and Li Rui showed the jade bracelet to the camera for them to see, while the other roommates observed the packaging in admiration.

Even these two boxes appeared to be costly.

At this point, everyone believed that Chen Hao must have gotten rich, definitely.

Suddenly, the boy at the door shouted, “Chen Hao is coming back! Quick, put it back!”

Yang Hui ended the video call immediately while the others placed the box in its original position.

Just right after they put the jade bracelet back into the box, Chen Hao opened the door.

He was baffled to see all his roommates standing there while staring at him. Feeling perplexed, he asked in a joking tone, “What are you looking at? Is there money on my face?”

“Chen Hao, tell us frankly. Are you really rich now?” Yang Hui inquired curiously.

“What do you mean? How could I be rich?” Chen Hao replied reflexively.

“Damn! Are you still trying to hide it from us? Guys, beat him!”

Yang Hui and the others pounced on Chen Hao and pushed him onto the bed.

They took off his pants, smacked his buttocks and did all the silly punishments on Chen Hao.

“Alright, I surrender! Yes, yes, yes! I am rich now!”

Chen Hao could not conceal it anymore.

His actions and behavior during this period of time had caught the attention of Yang Hui, Li Rui and the rest.

Indeed. How could a poor student become so wealthy overnight? Not only did he become wealthy, he obviously had great influence.

Initially, Chen Hao did not wish to tell Yang Hui and the rest the truth because he was afraid that their friendship would be affected.

But in this situation, although he did not want to reveal that he was Young Master Chen, they must have guessed it.

Therefore, Chen Hao could only admit that he was wealthy now. As for how he became rich and his true identity, he would never admit it verbally.

Yang Hui and the rest could not force him to admit all of it.

At the end of the day, despite the jokes and teases, they were all happy for Chen Hao.

And Chen Hao was determined for them to help each other in their future careers.

After that, Yang Hui and the rest coerced Chen Hao to accept their plans for the next few days in the college. In the past, they had helped Chen Hao a lot, so it was reasonable for Chen Hao to repay their deeds by treating them to meals.

After Chen Hao and the rest completed their revision, they went out to have some fun and indulge in gluttony. They then went back to the dorm to rest.

As for the matter of Chen Hao’s sister coming to Jin Ling, we must rewind back to the time Chen Hao went to the bathroom.

When Chen Hao got to the public bathroom after he left the dorm, he contacted Chen Xiao and inquired when she would arrive so that he could fetch her.

But Chen Xiao said that she canceled the trip to Jin Ling.

“Chen Hao, we have an important guest now. Father asked me to accompany him, so I’m afraid I can’t make it to Jin Ling. Father informed me to call and tell you.”

“Alright!”

Chen Hao was slightly disappointed. After all, he missed his sister.

“Do you remember that father had a comrade-in-arms who was his best friend when we were in the old house in Jin Ling?”

Chen Hao nodded. “Yes, I remember that.”

It was a long story. Some things were only told during the previous call with their father. Their father said that the Chen Family had a tradition where they would raise their sons and daughters in poverty to educate them.

Naturally, their father was not an exception.

Back in the days when their father was raised in poverty, he did not pass the college entrance examination. So, their grandfather pressured him to join the army. And that was when he met his comrade-in-arms.

After returning from being enlisted in the army for two years, their father cultivated the land to grow crops in his hometown.

After all, he was penniless that time.

He used the retirement fees to open a steamed bun stall in the town. Unfortunately, he poked his nose into other people’s matters and maimed a thief. So, he had to use the steamed bun stall to compensate the thief.

He even borrowed a large sum of money and was heavily in debt.

At that time, he did not even have money for the New Year, so he sought help from his comrade-in-arms.

This comrade-in-arms came from the county town and was wealthy. Both of his parents were civil servants, so it was natural that they lived a comfortable life.

He visited this comrade’s house in the country town several times according to the address he gave, but were all fruitless trips because this comrade said he was not free to meet him. At last, he did not even get to meet this comrade in person.

He was quite disheartened at that time.

When they were best buddies and had the closest friendship, they even promised to continue their relationship to their next generation. If they both had a boy, their sons would become brothers; if they had a boy and a girl, they would be made husband and wife.

But it seemed that all of these were just jokes.

From that day onward, they rarely contacted each other.

Until their father reached his 22nd birthday, their grandfather told him that he was actually a son from a wealthy family.

After that, their father was brought out of the small place to build his business and finally inherited the family.

After giving birth to his sister and him, their parents returned to the hometown while continuing their careers remotely. At the same time, they began their poverty education on his sister and him.

Of course, Chen Hao only remembered that it was his neighbors, Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu, who took care of him while his parents were working overseas to repay the debt.

Their parents would only return to visit his sister and him twice or thrice a year.

That was the general story of the past.

They met the comrade-in-arms again when Chen Hao was in his junior high school. During the transition to senior high school, he was brought by his father to meet that comrade again to request if he could arrange for him to attend a good school. After all, his results were pretty good.

However, they only met the comrade in the parking lot of the comrade’s house. The comrade diverted the topic by saying he was busy for a meeting and they should catch up some other time.

In the end, Chen Hao got into one of the best schools based on his own results.

His impression of his father’s comrade was limited up to this point.

That man seemed to be working in the system and had extraordinary status. It was only natural that he looked down upon Chen Hao’s family.

“What about that, sister?” Chen Hao withdrew his thoughts and asked.

“Well, father has been talking about how he misses his old friend. You know that father is indifferent to fame and fortune. Although his old friend looked down upon him in the past, father is still reminiscing about their relationship. He’s one of a kind. Now that our education in poverty is over, and father can’t visit them personally because of his identity, I can’t meet them too, so you are the only person who can take on this task.”

“Although you’ll be staying in Jin Ling to get your things done during this summer holiday, find some time to return home for a few days. Then, visit father’s old friends on behalf of him. And there’s another special friend that you need to visit. I’ll courier an item to you at the time. The information of that special friend whom you’ve never met is all in the parcel. It’ll be great if you can visit them all. Just help us out if you can.”

“As for Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu who took care of us, help them to build a villa on the mountain, and give their son and daughter a big sum of money.”

After giving all these instructions, Chen Xiao hung up the phone.

Chen Hao was puzzled.

Who was that special friend of his father?

Chen Hao decided to shake the thoughts off his mind since he could not understand. He then went back to the dorm.

And the story resumed to whatever happened later.

None of them continued to chat later that night.

The next morning, Chen Hao brought his books to reserve a spot in the library as usual.

There was quite a crowd.

Chen Hao chose the seat beside the window again.

As soon as he saw this place, he thought of Qin Ya. This was where they first met.

He wanted to compensate her with a new jade bracelet, but she was nowhere to be found, and he did not have her contact number.

Therefore, Chen Hao came to the library in hope that he could bump into her again.

After Chen Hao sat down, he scanned across the library frequently.

At the same time in the other corner of the library, there sat a group of five or six girls with extraordinary temperament.

All of them were looking at Chen Hao.

“Who do you think that loser is looking for?” A girl smiled and asked while supporting her cheeks with her palm.
