I Am Born With A Silver Spoon novel Chapter 386

Chen Hao, of course, agreed.

The Fang family were also looking for Aunt Fang now, and Chen Hao wasn’t so stupid as to create more trouble for himself.

Apart from that, Chen Hao felt an intense need to understand the relationship between Aunt Fang and his own family.

He also wanted to know—how exactly was he related to Su Ziyue?

When Fang Mengxin heard Chen Hao ask about it, she told him everything frankly.

As it turned out, the Chen Pingan that Aunt Fang was talking about was the second young master of the Chen family. He was young, handsome, and he was also Su Ziyue’s father.

From a logical point of view, Chen Pingan was probably that uncle of his whom his father had mentioned when Chen Hao was younger.

At that point in time, his father used to tell him how his uncle was always working outstation and barely returned.

No wonder he felt a sense of familiarity when he met Su Ziyue.

It was because Su Ziyue was his cousin.

The resentment between the Chen family and the Fang family, however, was not as simple as it seemed.

What Aunt Fang meant was that the Chen Family had wanted something from the Fang family in the beginning, which led to the resentment between the two families over the years.

Flash back twenty years ago, the Chen family assigned Chen Pingan over to the Fang family as their undercover spy, so that he could get more friendly with the Fang family to get what they wanted.

When Aunt Fang told this part of the story, she smiled sweetly.

Back then, Aunt Fang was blessed with an unmatched beauty. She was also the CEO of an up-and-coming enterprise under the Fang family. Thus, she was a true iron lady.

Chen Pingan spent a lot of effort in order to get closer to Fang Mengxin.

First, he got into the company’s sales department.

Then, using his immense capabilities and strengths, he eventually became the manager of the company.

After two years, he became extremely familiar with Fang Mengxin.

However, as handsome and capable Chen Pingan was those years, and despite the admiration Fang Mengxin started to grow for him over time, the extremely strict rules of the Fang family meant that Fang Mengxin would always get rid of any romantic feelings she had for Chen Pingan the moment she felt them arise.

Until something happened later on.

One day, after the annual meeting of their company, Fang Mengxin drove home alone.

On the way, she was met with an attack from her business rivals. Twenty or so people surrounded Fang Mengxin’s car with the intention of kidnapping her.

Luckily, Chen Pingan arrived in the nick of time. The man wasn’t just brilliant, but he was also extremely skilled in fighting.

In the end, Chen Pingan was heavily injured, but he still managed to defeat the assailants and fetched Fang Mengxin away from the scene.

This was a classic case of Prince Charming saving the princess, only in real life this time.

From then onward, Fang Mengxin had found a man she could entrust the rest of her life to.

Later on, the two of them grew fond of each other and ended up in a relationship.

Because of that, Su Ziyue ended up being abandoned as a child; Fang Mengxin got kicked out of the Fang family; Chen Pingan disappeared; and the grudges between the Chen and the Fang family grew immensely.

When Fang Mengxin found out she was pregnant, she had wanted to hide it at first. But how could one possibly hide something like a pregnancy?

That day, the inevitable happened and the cat was out of the bag.

Chen Pingan’s identity was also revealed. The Old Master of the Fang family was enraged and sent the Fang family’s underlings to kill Chen Pingan.

In order to save Chen Pingan, Fang Mengxin didn't hesitate to fight with the Old Master of the Fang family and leave the family on her own, bringing only her personal butler along.

Chen Hao listened to Fang Mengxin’s detailed account.

He didn’t feel very comfortable listening as he felt like what he was doing right now was not very far from what Chen Pingan did back then.

It was as if he had evaporated into thin air.

Chen Jindong thought the Fang family had killed his younger brother, and so he started a series of revenge against the Fang family. The resentment between the two families kept rising, and they both plotted endlessly against each other.

At the time, Fang Mengxin felt as though Chen Jindong could have taken Chen Pingan away on purpose, in order to rile up the Fang family.

But after awhile, she got rid of that idea.

Chen Jindong may have been sly and cunning, but he really loved his younger brother, Chen Pingan. Thus, he definitely would not have gone against Chen Pingan’s wishes and forcefully targeted the Fang family.

That could only mean that Chen Pingan was really in trouble.

“The two families were really pitted against each other. Even though the Chen family was extremely powerful, the Fang family was once no weaker than the Chen family. They might not have been the best, but they were still extremely strong when compared to other families, and they still managed to fight against the Chen family. But, right then, my eldest brother and his wife died because of an accident. Chen Hao, you are from the Chen family. You must know how the younger Fang generations never leave their doorstep and are grounded from the day they are born, as well as how the younger Chen generations never do anything to give themselves fame and are raised in poverty from young. This was started because of the resentment between the two families. However, it intensified because of what happened between Chen Pingan and I.”

Chen Hao nodded.

Now, he finally understood some things.

No wonder his father had reminded him to stay low-key, otherwise he would bring Chen Hao back to the family home.

As it turned out, the Chen family also had enemies.

Only that Chen Hao had no idea about how the resentment between the Chen family and the Fang family started.

Fang Mengxin also didn’t continue speaking.

She only talked about how she didn’t want to drag Su Ziyue around after that, forever unsure of whether they would have a roof over their heads or food to eat. That’s why she asked Xia to find somewhere to settle down, while Fang Mengxin herself carried Su Ziyue to an orphanage in Jin Ling City and left her there. Only then did she return to Chengdu.

“Chen Hao, can you take me to see Ziyue now, please? I’m begging you!”

Clearly, Fang Mengxin still missed Su Ziyue dearly.

Of course, Chen Hao agreed and nodded. “Alright, Aunt Fang. Follow me!”
