I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Chapter 10

“Well, who could it have been? On Jin Ling Street, other than Fan Ning, who else has that kind of clout?”

At this moment, Xu Nan laughed coldly.

Yang Hui tried to focus on his breathing. “I did not say that it was me. I merely stated my doubts. Just now Xiaonan, Yifan and Yifan’s dorm mates all made phone calls to their friends. My point is probably someone helped us and we did not thank him.”

“You’ve got a point there!”

Zhao Yifan’s facial expression looked grim.

“How about this? Everybody check the calls that you have made. Let’s see whether it was Ning Fan or one of your friends who helped us out.”

Zhao Yifan had just called Ning Fan by his name for the first time.

Everybody started phoning their friends to confirm.

Chen Hao stood aside and watched them awkwardly.

Should he tell them the truth?

While Chen Hao was still lost in his thoughts, everybody had finished confirming with their friends.

The fact was that none of their friends actually had the ability to solve this problem.

“Well, I was right. Ning Fan is just that awesome I guess!” Xu Nan coldly glared at Yang Hui and the others.

“Okay, let’s not play the guessing game anymore. Ning Fan is waiting for us at the entrance. Let’s not make him wait too long!”

Zhao Yifan shot a glance at Yang Hui and Chen Hao.

Her heart was filled with contempt. How could these two losers second guess a great guy like Ning Fan!

They were just jealous because they could never compare. Zhao Yifan and the rest of the girls left for the entrance.

Sure enough, Ning Fan and his friends were waiting outside the entrance with a fLit of luxury cars.

“Xiaonan, are you coming or not?” Zhao Yifan took Ma Xiaonan’s hands.

“Yifan, I really don’t want to go. I’ll go next time when I have the chance!”

Ma Xiaonan was a straightforward person. She had always felt that Ning Fan was a phony and didn’t like him at all.

When Zhao Yifan saw that her friend could not be persuaded, she said goodbye and went off with the other girls.

After they left, Chen Hao gave Ma Xiaonan and Yang Hui a glance.

Both of them looked very disappointed. He could see that they really wanted to visit Hot Spring Villa. However, because of him, Yang Hui and Ma Xiaonan were ridiculed by Ning Fan and left out of the fun. Chen Hao quietly noted this down. He smiled to himself, he couldn’t wait to see the look on their faces when he brought them there.

Half an hour later, Ning Fan and the rest of the fLit stopped in front of Hot Spring Villa’s entrance.

One after another, Zhao Yifan and her friends got out of the car.

“Stop there, you guys are not allowed to go in!” To their surprise, before they could even step foot in the lobby, they were stopped by a few well-trained security guards in black suits. Ning Fan said, “Mr. Li, I am Ning Fan! Don’t you recognize me? My dad is Ning Qiang! I am bringing my friends over to hang out.”

Ning Fan had one hand in his pocket and was smiling at the guards. He looked like a kid who had it all and knew it.

“Ha, ha! Young Master Ning, you are such a free spirit. You still can only think about having fun, even after what happened to your family? Putting aside the fact that you were not allowed to enter the Villa today, I am afraid that from now on, you wouldn’t came back want to come back even if we let you!”

Some of the security guards sniggered. They were looking at the pretentious Ning Fan with disdain and sympathy for the humiliation that he was about to go through.

Zhao Yifan and the rest of the girls were looking at each other in confusion.

This was the first time Ning Fan was looked down upon by other people. And these people were security guards!

Xu Nan’s chimed in, “This is Ning Fan, also known as Young Master Ning! Ming Huang Restaurant on Ji Ling Street. It belongs to his family!”

“Ha, ha, I know. However, we should say that it belonged to his family. Young Master Ning, I am afraid you don’t know this yet, do you? From today onwards, Ming Huang Restaurant is not owned by your family anymore. In addition, all the other businesses owned by your family have declared bankruptcy. Your father Ning Qiang should have his hands full now dealing with the cops, the people from the Better Business Bureau and the banks!”

The guards crossed their arms while laughing as they told him the story.

Ning Fan gulped. “No way, you guys are lying to me!” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

As he was speaking, he took out his mobile phone hurriedly and dialed his father’s number.

Only after dialing a few times did his father pick up.

Listening to the tumultuous sounds in the background, Ning Fan asked his father what had happened.

After a brief moment, Ning Fan’s face turned pale. It was completely drained of color.

“No way! No way! How could this be?” After he finished listening to his father’s words, Ning Fan’s mobile phone dropped to the ground.

All the stores owned by his family were closed down because his father had violated the law.

All their bank accounts were frozen too! In other words, Ning Fan had lost everything within an hour!

Zhao Yifan and the rest of the girls obviously did not expect this to happen.

They were standing at the side awkwardly.

“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!” Ning Fan sat down on the ground. Both his eyes looked empty.

So now, he was a poor dude?

When Zhao Yifan saw how Ning Fan handled the situation, she felt really disappointed.

She thought that she had found somebody qualified to be her boyfriend, but now it seemed she had judged him wrong.

“Xu Nan, isn’t your father acquainted with the people in the upper management? Could you contact him and see whether he can figure something out for my family?”

Ning Fan gulped again. He was so shocked when he heard the bad news that he completely ran out of ideas.

“Damn it, what can my family do for you?!”

Xu Nan waved his hands. “Fan, I think you should hurry home to see you father. No wonder my father said that your father would end up in jail one day if he continued running his businesses like that.”

“Yifan, what should we do?”

All the girls had no idea. They were looking forward to experiencing the Villa, but who could have guesses that this would happen.

“Since we can’t help much by staying here, I think we should go back!”

After saying that, Zhao Yifan and others immediately grabbed some cabs and left.

Li Zhenguo watched everything happen from the penthouse in his villa.

After that, he made a call.

“CEO Chen, Young Master Chen only said to take back the Ning family’s investments in Jin Ling Street. However now, you have bankrupted his family and ruined their reputation forever. They will never be able to hold their heads high again after this!”

“Ha, ha, my younger brother is just too soft-hearted. This is not the way we handle things in the Chen family. If he goes too easy on our enemies, I will be worried when he takes over the Chen family. Li

Zhenguo, I give you a new assignment. Please train my younger brother to become a member of the Chen family! Make him into the man we need!”

Li Zhenguo nodded his head respectfully.

It was Chen Xiao who had arranged everything. The power that the Chen family exerted was hard to imagine. It was literally impossible for one person to spend even a small fraction of the Chen family fortune in a lifetime, even if that person spent it without any forethought or care. The Chen family was one of the richest families in the world, and it was time Chen Hao learned how to wield that power correctly. He could no longer be the down-to-earth humble guy that he was.

At this moment, Chen Hao, Ma Xiaonan and the rest of the gang had returned to their respective dormitories.

Yang Hui and other were a little unhappy and decided to spend the rest of the night at the internet cafe.

They initially wanted to ask Chen Hao to come along to play with them. Chen Hao liked this game, but he never had the money to go to an internet cafe as he could barely pay for his meals. He only scrolled through the internet forums and read some articles.

Plus, Chen Hao currently felt tired and wanted to rest.

However, the moment he lay down on his bed, his mobile phone rang.

The moment he saw the number, Chen Hao felt perplexed.

Yang Xia was calling him!

Chen Hao immediately answered the call.

“Chen Hao, what took you so long? What were you doing?”

Chen Hao could hear Yang Xia’s anger through the phone.

When he heard her voice, Chen Hao thought of their past. They used to call each other like this all the time.

“What do you want?” Chen Hao said coldly.

“I have something to tell you. I will be waiting for you at the campus’ lakeside. You’d better be here in 10 minutes. If you don’t get here by then, I will jump into the lake and drown myself!”
