I Am Born With A Silver Spoon -
Chapter 191 Xu Xia’s Mother Is Coming
Qin Ya did not know what came over her as she was experiencing mixed emotions.
Just now when she saw that Chen Hao was still indifferent toward her, she was quite upset.
Perhaps I am trying to prove to myself. Come on, don't tell me that a boy like you is not the least bit attracted to me.
Therefore, while she was chatting insouciantly with Chen Hao, she had sent Li Yue a Wechat message, asking him to pick her up from the college.
She was trying to tell Chen Hao, You might not be interested in me, but I'm way out of your league anyway.
Well, that was how girls were. If she was interested in you but you were cold toward her, the tactic of 'loosening the reins only to grasp them better' might be effective but only if it was well-controlled. Of course, Chen Hao would never pull this kind of trick.
And Qin Ya would not have resorted to methods like these if she was not interested in Chen Hao.
Besides, Qin Ya was determined to cut off her friendship with Chen Hao by returning the jade bracelet to him.
Nevertheless, Qin Ya was almost infuriated to death when Chen Hao actually accepted the jade bracelet. He was even silent when she left with someone else.
Qin Ya had lost the mood to enjoy a meal with Li Yue, so she decided to get out of the car.
Li Yue was utterly perplexed as he watched Qin Ya get down from the car, hail a taxi and leave.
Completely baffled, he thought to himself, Did I say anything wrong? I didn't, did I?
On the other hand, Chen Hao let out a sigh and returned to his dorm.
When he reached the dorm, he saw Yang Hui crouching while smoking on the balcony.
He looked depressed as he scratched his head repeatedly.
Li Rui was also beside him at the balcony.
"Yang Hui, what's the matter?" Chen Hao walked over to them and asked.
"Sigh! Chen Hao, I'm glad you're back. I need someone to hear me out. You see, the exam is almost here, but damn, Xu Xia's mother is coming to Jin Ling for a few days. After that, the both of them will be going back to their hometown!"
"More importantly, Xu Xia told her mother about me, and now, her mother wants to meet me!"
"Damn, you're even meeting her parents now. This is good news, you should celebrate!" Chen Hao teased him.
"How is this good news? I understand Xu Xia's intention. She told me that her mother will be staying here, so I need to arrange her accommodation. To put it bluntly, she wants me to play a warm host. If I do great, I might receive compliments from her mom; if I screw up, we'll probably break up during this graduation!"
So Yang Hui was worrying about this.
Sigh! In Chen Hao's heart, he knew that being committed in a relationship would probably lead to this someday.
As the saying went, a mother-in-law is a stick-in-the-mud. And this sentence was not a joke.
Although Yang Hui's background wasn't that bad, it was still considered as having a light purse in Jin Ling.
After all, he could not afford to go to places that were too luxurious.
Chen Hao could not help either, because Jin Ling Commercial Street was up for auction now, and he did not own Hot Spring Villa anymore.
Otherwise, he could have arranged the accommodation for Xu Xia's mother easily, just like he did when Li Rui's girlfriend visited.
"What do you plan to do, Yang Hui?" Chen Hao asked.
"Well, I've discussed with Bin Zi just now. When Xu Xia's mother visits, I need you two to help me in hosting her, and I will arrange the hotel. As for the places to have fun, I saw on the internet that there will be a big event in Yunmeng Village tomorrow night. It seems like the people there had received their compensation from the demolition, so they are holding a large party. The scenery there is stunning. It will be a fun experience if we are going there, and most importantly, it won't cost us much money!" Yang Hui explained his plans.
Chen Hao nodded.
Chen Hao did not receive any news that Yunmeng Village was holding an event. Besides, this event was held by the people in the village to celebrate the success of demolition and had nothing to do with the project. So it was only natural that Li Zhengguo did not report this trifling matter to him.
Chen Hao then replied, "This might work. Let's go with it then. If there's anything more, I'll help you!"
With that, Yang Hui felt relieved and patted on Chen Hao's shoulder.
Xu Xia's mother would be arriving the next morning.
Early in the morning, Chen Hao, Yang Hui and Li Rui gathered at the college entrance together with Xu Xia and the girls.
Of course Xu Xia wouldn't have come alone without her roommates.
To put it simply, according to Yang Hui yesterday, Xu Xia's mother would be his future mother-in-law. If he and Xu Xia were the only ones to welcome her, the atmosphere might seem cheerless, and she might feel slighted.
It would only feel warm and merrier if there was a larger group of people.
Therefore, Xu Xia invited her two friends along.
When Chen Hao saw the two girls, he was stunned.
One of them was Zhao Yifan, and the other was Lin Jiao who was staring at him fondly.
Other than that, there was another girl whom Chen Hao had not met before.
"Yang Hui and Chen Hao, you're here! Oh, let me introduce you guys. This is Li Mei, my classmate from high school and also my childhood friend. Today, her mother will be coming with my mother, so we came together!" Xu Xia said.
As her name implied, Li Mei was quite beautiful and good at dressing up. Although she could not hold a candle to Zhao Yifan who was a natural beauty, she had almost the same charms as Lin Jiao who was beside her. She was a beauty with her own style.
"Hi, Li Mei. We've met once," Yang Hui greeted her apathetically.
Li Mei insouciantly nodded, when suddenly she asked, "Oh right, we will be going to the high-speed rail station to meet my mother and Xu Xia's mother. How are you guys planning to go there?" "We will be taking a taxi!" Yang Hui answered.
"What? A taxi? So you don't have a car? Well, I thought Xu Xia's boyfriend owns a car, just like my boyfriend does!" Li Mei sneered. Obviously, she had said that intentionally.
Although she was Xu Xia's childhood friend, it was apparent that both of them rarely spoke in college as Yang Hui said that he had only met her once.
But there was no other way now since Xu Xia's mother and her mother were travelling together to Jin Ling for a vacation. So she had to tag along.
And girls, especially those like Xu Xia, who came from a third-tier city to the metropolitan Jin Ling for their studies, enjoyed competing on their quality of life.
Plus, Xu Xia's two roommates were stunning, which roused jealousy in Li Mei. So, she could not suppress her sharp tongue.
"Yang Hui hasn't bought a car! Has your boyfriend bought one?"
Xu Xia was displeased, but she asked anyway.
Similar to Li Mei, both of them came from a well-to-do family. Since their days in high school, they could not compete on their financial abilities. After all, both of them could already afford fancy clothes. Therefore, they could only focus on competing in their studies, with Xu Xia always ahead of Li Mei.
But it was different in college now.
They could compete in various areas.
"He bought it a long time ago. It's just an Audi A4L though. Initially, he wanted to buy a BMW 7 Series out of spite when he saw his friend had one. But I advised him to buy A4L instead as it's quite nice. He loves me so much, and so he listened to me!" Li Mei crossed her arms and spoke complacently after glancing at Zhao Yifan and the girls.
However, Lin Jiao and the rest disdained her remarks.
Xu Xia nodded and agreed with her. "Your boyfriend and his friends are amazing!"
"Of course. Yang Hui and his friends have nothing to compare... Well, I'll stop here. But you know that they're just mediocre," Li Mei said scornfully.
As soon as she finished her words, she suddenly looked toward the college campus delightedly.
"My boyfriend and his friends are here!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
