I Am Born With A Silver Spoon novel Chapter 292

When Chen Hao walked over, he greeted his classmates one by one. But when he saw Wang Xue, he felt quite awkward.

Yes, Wang Xue was Chen Hao’s girlfriend… No, ‘girlfriend’ wasn’t the correct term, but their relationship was the type that was too ambiguous to be considered romantic or platonic. It was because of Wang Xue that Chen Hao was targeted by the school bully Liu Yang, who had also caught feelings for her. What happened next was no secret—Wang Xue and Liu Yang got together.

On his way here, Chen Hao had been wondering if Wang Xue would also be present, and how awkward it would be if she really was. He did resent her a little, because after all the sacrifice he and Li Xiao made for her, she still got together with their greatest enemy; because of the incident, Li Xiao had given up on his studies in vain.

But the real reason Chen Hao felt awkward was because he had no idea how he should treat her. Before that incident, the two had actually been on good terms; ever since that incident, the both of them never spoke to each other, which was strange. He’d wanted revenge but on second thought, who Wang Xue dated was entirely her choice, so who was he to control that choice? That meant Liu Yang was the one who deserved his anger, so at the moment, Chen Hao chose to ignore Wang Xue.

“Hehe, how heartless of Chen Hao to not greet you. And have you noticed, Wang Xue? Chen Hao looks quite charismatic now! Handsome too, with those stylish clothes!” a girl teased.

Wang Xue tidied up her stray strands of hair; it felt a little uncomfortable to hear someone else praising Chen Hao, because the guy was someone she’d dumped after all. Now that things were going good for him, hearing that praise felt like a slap to her face. So, all she did was reply, “Mm hmm, he does look good!”

“Hey, our class teacher and Miss Yang are coming!” somebody yelled. A car stopped in front of them and shortly after, an old man who looked a little over sixty years old exited the car from the back seat—he was Mr. Wang Changgui, their class teacher. The driver was a mature, attractive and charismatic young teacher who looked to be around 27 or 28 years old—she was their third-year English teacher, Miss Yang Ke. She was 22 when she taught Chen Hao’s class, the type who’d just graduated from university. However, her young age and good looks had helped her bond with the class quite well.

Chen Hao merely glanced at Yang Ke with no intention to greet her. But for Mr. Wang, he jogged over and immediately helped him out of the car.

“Is that you, Chen Hao?” When Mr. Wang saw Chen Hao, his wrinkled face immediately became surprised and overjoyed as he seized Chen Hao by elbow. “Where have you been these two years, you silly boy?” he asked emotionally.

To be honest, Mr. Wang had been so caring toward him and Li Xiao back then and Chen Hao had never forgotten his good deeds, so he hastily explained himself.

“Oh ho, what brings you here, Chen Hao? Look at you, all dressed up! What kind of job did you get, huh?” Meanwhile, Yang Ke’s first interaction with Chen Hao after six long years was a dismissive glance and a sneer.

What had happened back then was that Li Xiao had butted heads with her, and she’d held a grudge against both him and Chen Hao ever since. Chen Hao had nothing to do with the incident but as the saying goes, ‘the friend of my enemy, is also my enemy’, so Yang Ke made both their lives difficult with everything she had, because of Chen Hao’s close friendship with Li Xiao. How dare the class’ two poorest kids go against her like this? That was the reason Chen Hao gave her a glance and said nothing more.

Just then, Mr. Wang said, “Chen Hao, you’re of drinking age now. Why don’t you have a nice drink with me tonight?”

“Mr. Wang, wait…” Chen Hao began.

“Whoa, there’s so many of you today! I feel so honored! Come, come. I’ve decorated the place, so why not we all continue this conversation in the private room?” Chen Chao said.

When he saw Mr. Wang and Yang Ke, Chen Chao walked over and smiled. “Mr. Wang, Miss Yang, why don’t we go inside?” When he saw Chen Hao, Chen Chao looked surprised but simply gave a cursory greeting. “Hmm? You’re here too? That’s okay, let’s all go inside.”
