I Am Born With A Silver Spoon novel Chapter 378

“Li Liang, we happened to meet an old classmate!”

Hou Xiaoxia waved affectionately at Li Liang. Clearly, this was her boyfriend.

Wang Wen suddenly said, “Hou Xiaoxia, didn’t you say you had another ticket? Why don’t we bring Chen Hao along? Since we haven’t met in so many years, we can sit together and talk about the old days!”

“Hmm…” Hou Xiaoxia rolled her eyes once. “Sure, let’s bring him with us! We can show Chen Hao what a grand event looks like! Here’s your ticket, Chen Hao. Let’s go together!” Hou Xiaoxia said.

“Yeah, let’s go! You don’t have anything else to do anyway, right?” Wang Wen asked, tugging at Chen Hao’s elbow.

“Alright then!” Chen Hao nodded in agreement.

If it was just an invitation from Hou Xiaoxia, Chen Hao would not have even thought of joining.

But this was Wang Wen’s invitation, and they were pretty close. Plus, Chen Hao was waiting for new information from his underlings and that would take awhile, so he decided to go over just to check things out.

The few of them rode the elevator together and reached the third floor of the hotel.

There was a big hall on the third floor which was specially used for holding parties.

This hotel was an extremely prestigious one in Hong County.

Everyone presented their tickets before walking in.

There were quite a number of people who were already there.

This seemed like a gathering held before the start of a big project.

Based on what Hou Xiaoxia told Chen Hao, if one had no money or power, then they would not get the chance to show even a strand of their hair.

As for Hou Xiaoxia’s boyfriend, Li Liang, he was obviously rather well-versed with events like this.

He knew quite a few people in here, and after greeting all of them one-by-one, they all sat down at a table.

“What are you doing?”

Chen Hao had sat next to Wang Wen and Liang Meng.

But as he did so, Hou Xiaoxia suddenly spoke up.

“What do you mean, ‘what am I doing’?” Chen Hao shook his head with a bitter smile as he asked.

“You! Go sit over there! Do you think you have the right to sit at this table?” Hou Xiaoxia’s attitude toward Chen Hao was completely different as to how she treated him after entering the party.

You were the one who gave me the ticket to enter.

When Chen Hao turned to look at the direction Hou Xiaoxia’s finger was pointing in, he saw a table in the corner. It looked to have been prepared for the secretaries and drivers of those who had come to have fun tonight.

Obviously, Hou Xiaoxia thought Chen Hao didn’t have the right to sit at the same table with her.

In fact, Hou Xiaoxia had such a loud voice that it attracted the attention of everyone around them. Being embarrassed in public this way was rather awkward.

Wang Wen hurriedly tried to reprimand Hou Xiaoxia.

But Chen Hao didn’t want to give Wang Wen any trouble. So, with a bitter smile, he walked toward the table in the corner.

“Xiaoxia, what’s wrong with you? You treated Chen Hao pretty well before, so why are you treating him in public like this all of a sudden? Don’t you know how much you’re embarrassing him publicly?” Wang Wen said anxiously.

“That’s right! I wanted him to be embarrassed in public. He should know how bad it feels!” Hou Xiaoxia suddenly swept a cold gaze toward Chen Hao.

“Why? Chen Hao didn’t do anything to you! Unless… Don’t tell me, you’re still caught up in that small matter from high school?!” Wang Wen was extremely perplexed. She had been the one to call Chen Hao along after all. Now that two of her good friends were clearly not on good terms with one another, of course she was getting anxious.

She couldn’t cross this obstacle. In the end, she had given up the chance of further progress in her relationship with Chen Hao.

But this had never stopped Wang Wen from wishing that Chen Hao would become a capable person.

Regarding the matter of feelings, if either party of the relationship started to feel doubt, it would have a big crack in their feelings for each other.

The atmosphere around them became even stranger.

However, Chen Hao didn’t hear anything that Hou Xiaoxia and Wang Wen were saying.

A driver next to him was saying, “Isn’t that President Li’s son over there, Li Liang? My boss said that Li Liang is representing President Li today, and he says we should go over and greet him, since all of our projects come from President Li! I wouldn’t want us to get penalized if we don’t!”

“Yeah, our President Wang also told us to at least give him a toast and flatter him a little bit!”

The few drivers and secretaries around them discussed.

Li Liang’s family owned a company, and companies buttering each other up to smoothen their connections was extremely normal.

Hence, flattering and occasionally licking one’s boots were completely understandable.

“Alright, since they gave us that instruction, then how about we all go over together! Just in case we lose the chance to even give a toast once the ceremony starts!” a female secretary said.

Following that, the group of them stood up.

“Hey, pal. Why don’t you come along too?”

Just then, a driver next to Chen Hao patted him on the shoulder.

Obviously, he had assumed Chen Hao was a driver too…
