I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Chapter 97

“Huh? What happened, sister?” Chen Hao’s heart tightened.

They had a very close relationship with each other. Chen Hao wasn’t lying when he told Hao Lanlan that his sister did not take her high school entrance exam just so he could continue his studies.

At that time, there were both raised in poverty. Not only did his sister withdraw herself from the high school entrance exam, she also sacrificed a lot for him in the past.

“Don’t mention it anymore, my dear brother. You do know how abnormally strict our family rules are. One of the rules states that no matter how much you earn or spend, it must be recorded!”

“Even if you spent as little as a few billion, it must be reflected in the family’s records. You can never forsake your family! The transactions you performed with your bank cards are all being recorded as well!”

“Yes, I know about this!”

This was one of the Chen family’s rules. You could spend your money or the family’s money as much as you wanted. However, you can never keep it a secret from the head of the family, which was your own father.

You couldn’t even use an alias to keep the money.

“Sister, did you perform some transactions that were not recorded?” Chen Hao asked.

“That’s right, f*ck my life! I only realized it today. When my poverty days were over, I took the one billion that our mum gave me and spent it. One day, I drank too much and was craving some food from one of those chain stores. Hence, I asked my assistant to buy one for me!”

“Damn, did you know what my stupid assistant did? She actually bought the brand for 60 million. It wasn’t a really famous brand back then. However, since then, that brand has become famous and is making me a profit of approximately two billion. I forgot all about it because who would have thought that the stupid girl actually bought the entire shop!”

“Then, I wanted to spend the two billion in secret. I’ve only managed to spend half of it before our father found out. It’s because I have bought so much stuff but I did not touch a single penny of our family’s fortune. So, I am very terrified right now since I have broken our family’s rules. My dear brother, I would have to be raised in poverty again for one month! Our father is a traditional person. He would never listen to our mother’s advice!”

“Thank God, I thought that you were in big trouble. It’s only one month, and time flies very fast!”

Chen Hao wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead. His sister really knew how to make a fuss about nothing.

“No! My dear brother, I can’t even bear a single day in poverty and you’re telling me I have to do it for a month? I don’t care, you need to help me, you must!” His sister nearly cried on the phone.

“Ok, ok. How do I help?”

“Hehe, help me spend the remaining one billion within 7 days. Don’t leave a single cent behind! Since you aren’t staying with us, our father won’t investigate you that thoroughly!”

Sputter!

Chen Hao nearly fainted.

“You want me to spend one billion in 7 days?”

To be honest, it wasn’t the first time Chen Hao laid his eyes on this amount of money. After all, his sister did use his name to invest in certain businesses on Jin Ling Commercial Street. Every month, there were at least a few billion flowing into his account.

Hence, Chen Hao wasn’t short of money anymore.

He planned to invest using this money.

However, he felt that it was too extravagant to squander away one billion just like that!

It would be good if he could use that one billion to invest in something, but to squander it away like that would be considered wasteful. After all, he was unlike his sister, who seemed to have a certain hatred for money. She could rack up a few billion in expenditure within a single month.

“It’s only one billion, can’t you spend it? Brother, why don’t you buy a vehicle then? I could recommend a German company to you. You could buy a jet from them!”

Chen Hao was so stunned that he could not utter a single word.

“I don’t care! I don’t want to live in poverty for one month. By hook or by crook, you better spend it all within 7 days! I will send you the money now!”

After finishing her sentence, Chen Xiao immediately hung up the phone.

So what if she were to be raised in poverty for 1 month? How could she ask me to spend one billion? Why was she making my life so difficult! Chen Hao grabbed at his hair in anguish.

He could spend the money on a jet. That would deplete the money quickly. However, he had no use for a jet now!

Besides, Chen Hao still had the mentality of stretching his money to the maximum even until now. This would be hard for him. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Ping!

The bank had already sent him a message, indicating that the money was deposited into his account.

His sister was really efficient.

But how should he spend it?

Sigh!

If he were to invest it, his family would definitely know about it. However, if he were to buy something with it, his father might not notice it.

One billion! How much did he need to buy in order to use it all up?

This was so frustrating!

Chen Hao patted his head. He wasn’t in the mood to shop around anymore and decided to go back to his dorm to sleep.

Three days went by in a blink of an eye and Chen Hao still did not have any idea how to spend his one billion.

On the third day, three incidents happened that was worth mentioning.

Firstly, Hao Lanlan had asked for a leave. She was forcefully taken away by her mother from college.

Chen Hao was very pissed about it. He wanted to help Hao Lanlan out, but she wasn’t online and could not be reached at the moment.

He was actually prepared to inquire about her wellbeing within these two days and give her a sum of money.

Secondly, Han Siyu had become an influential figure on campus. In addition to that, she participated in the SameCity Live Streaming app’s promotional activities and became the spokesperson for the app’s homepage. She was on a roll!

Thirdly, Li Zhenguo planned to upgrade the SameCity Live Streaming app into a software for the whole country. He even planned to invest 2 billion more into this app and make it into an early platform competitor!

Chen Hao had given him the green light and quickly transferred the money over to him. After all, it was his first investment and Chen Hao wanted it to be a success!

Today, Chen Hao was having his breakfast alone in the cafeteria.

He started hearing people chattering away beside him.

“Hey, did you know? Today’s the day that Cloud Manor is put on sale! Originally, the price was fixed at 700 million but now it has been increased to 800 million!”

“What do you mean it is on sale? Today is just an exhibition day. Who would buy a house that costs 800 million? It is not even an investment!”

“But the Cloud Manor is really worth 800 million! Some of its pictures are circulating on the internet. It’s just too luxurious up there. If you were to stay there, it would be akin to staying in a sky palace!”

“It’s true. Everybody says that it’s a manor but in reality it’s just a tourist attraction because the entry price for the exhibition this time is nearly a few hundred thousand. There are only limited tickets available!”

“Damn! That’s too much!”

Listening to the people chattering away beside him, Chen Hao suddenly remembered that today was the exhibition day of the Cloud Manor. He had an appointment with Huang Yonghao to go there together to take a look.

Right at this moment, Chen Hao’s phone rang.

It was Huang Yonghao.

“Brother, I am coming over now to pick you up to attend the Cloud Manor Exhibition. I am holding on to your ticket!” Huang Yonghao said delightedly.

“You don’t have to pick me up. I know the address of the Cloud Manor. I will go there by myself. You can give me the ticket when I reach.”

“Ok, ok. So, it’s the VIP seat then. I don’t mind, sorry to trouble you!”

“Ok, in terms of buying, I need to take a good look at it first. If the Cloud Manor is really that good, I might consider buying it. Haha, ok then, we’ve agreed. I will come over after my meal!”

Chen Hao ended his call with Huang Yonghao grudgingly. This guy really knew how to encourage him to buy.

He didn’t want to keep Huang Yonghao waiting. Hence, Chen Hao called Yang Hui and told him that he was taking the day off. Then, he quickly gobbled up the plate of egg fried rice and got up.

Only then did he realize that silence had befallen the entire cafeteria and all of the students were staring at him in astonishment!
