The poorest rich man novel (Chen Hao) novel Chapter 201

“Mr. Jiang Hanping is the head of the county. Who could possibly get him to wait for them at the bus station?” Liu Min said in shock.

Could it be the town police?

It couldn’t be. The town police wouldn’t have taken a bus here on their own.

“Liu Min, wait here. I’m going to go greet him!” Liu Min’s boyfriend straightened his suit and fixed his hair, and was about to head over.

“Are you sure, Li Jiaqiang? Will County Head Jiang bother about you?” Liu Min asked worriedly.

“He probably will, since he knows my father and I’ve already had two meals with him!” Li Jiaqiang said confidently before walking over.

Liu Min did not dare to go over. Everyone there looked like big shots, and the leaders of the Education Bureau were standing there too.

As a subordinate of a subordinate, of course she didn’t have the guts to show her face.

As for Li Jiaqiang, he went in a flash and also returned in a flash.

When he walked over there, he looked excited and happy, thinking that greeting the county head at an occasion like this was good for his reputation.

But when he returned, his head was hanging low and his face was as red as a tomato.

“Huh? What happened, Li Jiaqiang? Did County Head Jiang not respond to you? Sigh. I told you. There are so many well-known figures there, so you shouldn’t have gone over.”

“Yeah. County Head Jiang is here to pick someone up, and this person seems like a big shot. I think they were talking about that big boss Young Master Chen, the one who wants to completely change Ping An County. I don’t think it’s him, though. If it were Young Master Chen, why would he take the bus here?” Li Jiaqiang wondered, confused.

“Sigh. Maybe County Head Jiang just didn’t want to tell you the truth. We should go first. There are still a few leaders of the Education Bureau here, and we don’t want to trouble them,” Liu Min said hurriedly.

Li Jiaqiang nodded.

They rushed Chen Hao to walk faster as well.

Chen Hao followed behind them, hearing them talk about Young Master Chen. Could it be… Were they here for him? He wondered.

But he had already told Li Zhenguo not to make a big deal out of it, and that he would go home and deal with his own matters first. He clearly told Li Zhenguo to leave it.

But at that moment, Chen Hao couldn’t exactly go over and confirm it for himself.

That was why he just brushed it off.

Once he brought Liu Min and her boyfriend’s luggage to the exit of the bus station, their driver arrived.

“Ugh, it’s so warm! Li, quickly put the luggage away and let’s go!” Liu Min said unkindly to the driver.

After putting away their luggage, the driver drove away with Liu Min and her boyfriend.

Chen Hao, who was standing at the side carrying his own luggage, was bewildered. F*ck!

Even if they only saw him as a servant, they could still say goodbye to him, right?

In the car, Li Jiaqiang looked at Chen Hao standing blankly at the exit through the rearview mirror before saying to Liu Min guiltily, “Liu Min, we forgot to say goodbye to your student over there. We should have asked him where he was headed and gave him a ride.”

“Why should we? Aren’t you afraid that he would dirty our car? He’s just a poor idiot. You don’t need to care about him!”

“Alright!”

Whereas for Chen Hao, after he scolded Liu Min inwardly for a minute, he flagged down his own car to head home.

He also didn’t forget to give a call to Uncle Wu’s household on the way.

He wanted to let them know that they didn’t have to prepare a meal. They just needed to wait for him to go home because he would be buying some dishes and alcohol to have with Uncle Wu.

However, their landline rang for a long time. No one was picking up.

After three redials, only then did a faint voice finally answer the phone.

“Hello? Who are you looking for?”

“Aunt Wu, it’s me, Chen Hao. Where’s Uncle Wu?”

“Ah! Chen Hao, it’s you. Are you back home for the holidays?” Aunt Wu asked, pleasantly surprised.

Chen Xiao and Chen Hao had basically been brought up by Uncle and Aunt Wu since they were young.

That was why the pair of siblings had a very close relationship with Uncle and Aunt Wu.

They thought of them as if they were their own grandparents.

A few years ago, Chen Xiao had been the first to leave. However, she still had to be raised in a poor manner, so she did not have a way to fully support Uncle and Aunt Wu. She could only secretly aid them.

So in general, Uncle Wu’s family’s quality of life was still the same.

And once Chen Xiao heard that Chen Hao was going back for the holidays, her first thought was about the matters of the Wu Family.

Naturally, Chen Hao would not have forgotten about it.

“Ahem. Your uncle has been admitted to the hospital at noon, and it just so happened that I came home to get some things, which is why I managed to pick up your call.”

“What? Admitted to hospital? Where?”

He heard Aunt Wu’s rather unhappy tone and Chen Hao’s heart sank as he asked anxiously.

So, Aunt Wu told him the address.

It just so happened that the hospital was located within the county.

When Chen Hao reached the hospital, Aunt Wu had also arrived in a one-person van from town.

Chen Hao helped Aunt Wu along as they walked toward the operating room in the emergency department.

Aunt Wu told him that Uncle Wu had fainted while eating in the afternoon because of some heart problems.

She was shocked and immediately called for an ambulance, and he hadn’t been out of the operating room since.

“Why do we have to shoulder all the payments? Brother, aren’t you just bullying others? He is your father too!”

In front of the operating room, a woman with tattooed eyebrows that resembled caterpillars was talking to a couple.

On the other side, there were a few more couples and some young people.

Chen Hao looked closely and realized that they were Uncle Wu’s two sons and two daughters, as well as his grandchildren.

Obviously, they had arrived after getting to know that something happened to Uncle Wu.

“That’s a bit insulting. Our dad has always lived with you while I’ve been working outside. Plus, I’m only asking you to pay in advance and not the full amount, so why are you so worried? In the end, the four of us should split the fees equally!” said the eldest child, who worked away from home for most of the year. He folded his arms and took a puff of his cigarette.

“What do you mean, all four of us should split the fees equally? You two brothers should take the brunt of it, whereas us two sisters should pay a smaller amount. Besides, my daughter is graduating from college this year and she’s just about to start her internship. Is getting her a job not going to cost me money?” said the third child indignantly.

Chen Hao finally understood. They were arguing because of the medical fees.

When Aunt Wu saw this, she was so angry she almost fainted.

“Can all of you stop arguing?! None of you need to pay these fees! I’ll pay, and if I don’t have any money, then I’ll sell my kidneys! None of you need to pay a cent!” Aunt Wu stomped her foot angrily.

“Sigh. Mom, don’t be angry. I don’t have a lot of money left because I have been setting up some companies for your grandchildren,” said the second child.

“How much are the fees?” Chen Hao piped up suddenly.

“Oh? Chen Hao is back!” The crowd turned to look at Chen Hao.

“Hmph! What amount of medical fees can you even afford? You’re just asking on purpose!” Wu Qian mocked. This young girl was the same age as Chen Hao.

Because Uncle Wu had always doted on Chen Hao, Wu Qian had always felt unhappy ever since she was young. Why was Uncle Wu like this? He didn’t dote on his own granddaughter, but rather a little poor kid.

“Probably being pretentious, acting as if he’s capable!” said another young man. His name was Wu Chao, and he was the one who had a company set up for him.

He behaved just like Wu Qian, because he didn’t particularly like Chen Hao either.

It was mainly because Chen Hao had always been good at his studies since young and their grandparents had always compared him to Chen Hao. The constant comparison caused him to start feeling jealous.

Chen Hao had always known that Wu Qian and Wu Chao didn’t like him, so he didn’t say anything.

Right at that moment, a nurse walked over.

The nurse said lightly, “When will you all pay the medical fees? It’s 130,000 in total. Putting it together wouldn’t take you that long, right?”

The eldest child then said, “Just listen to me. Brother, just pay the fees in advance. I will pay you back afterward!”

“Why me?”

“……”

A few seconds later, another argument started to break out.

The second brother’s wife started to argue with the third sister over little things, talking about how Aunt Wu secretly gave money to third sister and what not.

Then, they started tearing each other apart.

It was messy beyond belief.

The nurse did not hide the disgust on her face.

“I’ll go pay first, then,” Chen Hao said softly to the nurse, shaking his head helplessly.

“You?”
