I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Chapter 34

“I can’t believe that it’s Young Master Chen!”

The Young Masters and ladies around the table recognized Young Master Chen at once.

They were dumbfounded.

“Wait, who? Brother Fei, do you mean that the beggar is -”

Slap!

The man in white, who was Bai Xiaofei, immediately slapped the young man when he addressed Young Master Chen as a beggar.

“Shut up, who are you calling a beggar? You must be eager to die!”

That young man covered his face in grievance.

“Young Master Chen is here. Fei, should we greet him?”

The few dandies asked nervously. Chen Hao was one of the presidents who pulled the strings of the entire commercial street.

His family status and power were beyond imagination.

Anyone who befriended him would benefit for life and, not to mention, boost one’s social status.

Most importantly, Chen Hao was the superior of the boss of Bai Xiaofei and the others’ fathers. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Chen Hao was utterly impressive. “Wait a second! Something seems wrong!” Bai Xiaofei quickly regained his calmness and carefully inspected the situation from his seat.

He saw Chen Hao standing alone awkwardly and was mocked by the girls at the table beside him.

He figured out what was happening immediately.

Bai Xiaofei got to know Young Master Chen’s situation when he sent Young Master Chen to school yesterday. Young Master Chen’s identity had not been revealed yet.

If Young Master Chen’s identity had been revealed, he would not be able to keep a low profile and there would be squads of bodyguards protecting him when he was in school.

Moreover, Young Master Chen wouldn’t be attending Jin Ling College either, where most commoners went.

If he and his friends approached Young Master Chen now and revealed his identity, they might push Young Master Chen into the heart of his struggle, and even bring many problems to him.

If that happened, Bai Xiaofei would be in trouble.

Bai Xiaofei’s father was an expert in flattering and toadying tactics, so as his son, Bai Xiaofei inherited his father’s skills.

“What are you hesitating for, Fei? Young Master Chen is being taunted, and this is the best opportunity for us to present ourselves! Young Master Chen likes to keep a low profile, but he is being ridiculed by those trashes, so we can’t possibly turn a blind eye to it!”

One of the dandies asserted anxiously. “Absolutely not! But all of you have to keep in mind that Young Master Chen’s identity must not be exposed. Just follow my instructions from now on!”

Bai Xiaofei had analyzed the situation and told his group his reasoning.

Through Bai Xiaofei’s explanation, they got a clearer picture of the present situation. They realized that it would be reckless to go up to Young Master Chen and accidentally exposed his identity, Chen Hao was preparing to leave.

He felt extremely embarrassed to be stared at by the crowd.

When he was turning away, someone called him.

“My friend, please wait for a second!”

Bai Xiaofei and the rest stood up.

The crowd shifted their attention to them.

“Friend, if you don’t mind, let’s have a drink together.”

“Yes my friend, join us for a drink! We have seats here!”

Bai Xiaofei and the group got up from their seats.

One of them even started to sweat nervously.

“Wait, what is happening?”

“Why is Young Master Bai, the son of Treasure Pavilion’s president, inviting a beggar to join them?”

“Besides, the guests at that table are all representing the nine most reputable shops in Jin Ling Commercial Street. They are the most distinguished guests here!”

“Look, even the heirs of Bai and Lin Families are present. W…what is happening?”

The crowd was perplexed.

Bai and Lin Families, and even Ning family who was the owner of Ming Huang Restaurant, started their businesses in Jin Ling Commercial Street. From there, they expanded their businesses which led to their prosperity and wealth.

They had close connections with Li Zhenguo.

And their descendants were all highly honorable.

Even Yang Xia, Lu Chen, Zhao Yifan and the others were stunned.

Obviously, they knew each of the guests at that table, but they have never had the chance to talk to them.

They were confused by their motives of inviting Chen Hao to join them.

Chen Hao was also baffled that Bai Xiaofei and Lin Yiyi’s group, who had beaten him violently, were in attendance.

He did not notice their presence.

When Chen Hao heard their invitation, he thought, If I flee from the crowd now under their watchful eyes, the crowd will despise me even more and think that I am really a beggar.

It would be better for him to join Bai Xiaofei and his friends. At least those people who looked down on him would shut their mouths.

He accepted their invitation and nodded. “Sure!”

Chen Hao walked toward the stage in the eyes of the astonished crowd. When he reached Bai Xiaofei’s table, he sat on the empty seat between Bai Xiaofei and Lin Yiyi.

“How thick skinned!”

“What an ignorant man!’

“He really sat down at that table. Who does he think he is?”

“And he even got to sit next to goddess Lin Yiyi!”

Most of the rich young guests were green with envy.

Zhao Yifan, Lu Chen and Yang Xia gaped at Zhuang Qiang and asked him if he understood the situation.

Most importantly, they were offended by the fact that Chen Hao got to sit at the VIP seats, while they could only sit at the normal seats.

“How could he accept their invitation without even thinking? He should know his place!”

Zhuang Qiang was enraged that he stole his spotlight as the host tonight!

He approached Bai Xiaofei and asked,”Young Master Bai, what are you doing? How can you allow him to sit here?”

“Why not? If my friend isn’t allowed to sit here, we will leave now!”

Bai Xiaofei sneered and got up at once.

Following Bai Xiaofei’s action, all the presidents and bosses who complied with the Bai family stood up from their se. well. They would leave if Bai Xiaofei len.

“This…”

Zhuang Qiang’s face went black. Today was the grand opening ceremony, so he definitely could not afford to offend Bai and Lin Families.

But he was baffled. Why would someone be as haughty as Bai Xiaofei treated Chen Hao in such a polite manner?

“Of course. Since Young Master Bai has allowed it, he can sit here!”

Zhuang Qiang shot daggers at Chen Hao before he returned to his seat in a huff.

“Young Master Zhuang, what happened? Why did Young Master Bai and the others invite Chen Hao that loser?”

“I don’t know. But I think he did that to oppose me and the Zhuang family. This Ming Huang Restaurant was initially going to the Bai family, but my father spent a great deal of efforts to get his hands on this restaurant. Bai Xiaofei must be holding grudges against me for this reason! Even so, we have 10 invite Bai Xiaofei to this grand opening ceremony because Bai family is one of the greatest families in Jin Ling.”

“That’s why!”

Everyone understood now.

Zhao Yifan finally put her heart at ease.

Yang Xia was also relieved.

If Chen Hao was a friend of Young Master Bai, Yang Xia would feel uneasy.

Even Lu Chen was not qualified to know Young Master Bai, so what made Chen Hao think he was qualified to know him?

On the other hand, Chen Hao did not care about what Yang Xia and the rest thought.

After he sat down, he glanced interestingly at the beautiful ladies who were blushing.

Especially Lin Yiyi.

“Didn’t expect we would meet so soon, did you?”

Chen Hao said teasingly, “Indeed, Young Master Chen. This must be our destiny!”

The girls pouted their lips at Chen Hao adorably.

Lin Yiyi was at a loss for words. She then recalled her father’s urge in the afternoon.

She followed the girls’ response and nodded at Chen Hao.

“Young Master Chen, are you a friend of Zhuang Qiang that idiot?”

Bai Xiaofei suddenly squinted at Zhuang Qiang and asked Chen Hao.

Even though he noticed the hostility between Zhuang Qiang and Young Master Chen, he needed to receive a confirmation from the man himself.

“Definitely not!”

Chen Hao answered frankly,

“That’s great. Young Master Chen, we have plenty of ideas to ridicule Zhuang Qiang in front of the crowd today, and deteriorate Zhuang family’s reputation, but we are afraid of Uncle Zhenguo. That’s why we didn’t have the guts to carry out our ideas. If you are willing to back us up, we can surely destroy Zhuang Qiang’s reputation today!”
