I Am Born With A Silver Spoon
Chapter 429 A Trusted Relationship

"Dad, I was useless. When I saw them bully mom, I couldn't say anything. I couldn't do anything at all," Xiaobei said as she cried. "I was originally supposed to take mum's precious bracelet out, hoping to make grandma happy so that I can progress in the family. However, Yang Ye broke it. In fact, he broke it on purpose. Everybody there saw it happen! But, dad, despite that, grandma said that mom was overreacting and that it was only a normal piece of jade accessory. In grandma's eyes, probably nothing is as valuable as Yang Ye is!"

Yang Xiaobei could not hold back anymore on this day. Before this, when they mocked her and her mum, she endured it all. But, what happened just now wasn't even the slightest bit fair. Yang Xiaobei could not take it anymore, so she ran back feeling that she had been treated unjustly.

"You know, Guo Ru hates you. She hates mom and I too. She probably wants mom and I to leave the Yang family for good. Alright, Yang family, I won't go there anymore!" As soon as Yang Xiaobei finished talking, she flopped onto the bed and started to cry.

Chen Hao stood behind Xiaobei and patted her on her shoulder. Yes, although Xiaobei was usually honest and kind, she had her own dignity after all; nobody else would endure repetitive ridicule and unfairness like she did. Other than Xiaobei, nobody knew this feeling better than Chen Hao did.

Speaking of which, if Xiaobei's family didn't help his family that year, his family would've suffered incredibly. Since his mother trusted him with this, he would give Xiaobei and Uncle Yuxing a bright future. "Chen Hao, I'm sorry for making you worry. You are not done with grandma's birthday feast yet," Xiaobei said and looked at Chen Hao after she cried for a while while drying her tears.

"It's nothing. Xiaobei, don't be too pessimistic. It will get better. Surely!" Chen Hao held Xiaobei's hand.

"Mm hmm." Xiaobei nodded her head.

Just then, Xiaobei's handphone suddenly rang. One glance told her that it was the housekeeper, Ashen, who had called.

"There is going to be an emergency family meeting. Attendance is mandatory." Next, Ashen ended the call.

"Go and wash your face, then go back there quickly." Chen Hao said.

"I'm not going. I don't want to be in that family anymore. That year, Aunt Yuying performed so well, and yet she didn't want to stay in this completely soulless home. Really, Chen Hao, this place can really torture you to madness!" Xiaobei said angrily.

"You must go. You still have to think of Aunt Caifeng. Don't give Aunt Guo Ru a chance to spurt her nonsense. In the very least, you have to go now," Chen Hao persuaded her with a smile. Xiaobei thought about it and nodded her head. Next, she followed Chen Hao's advice and left.

The meeting went on until two o'clock in the afternoon. As for Chen Hao, he didn't follow Xiaobei there this time. He stayed at home to help Uncle Yuxing with exercising his wrists and with other things. Xiaobei arrived with Aunt Caifeng. But as soon as they got back, Aunt Caifeng started ranting away.

"Guo Ru, I'm not done with you. How can you bully other people like that? I'm not done with you!" Guo Caifeng scolded.

"Aunt Caifeng, what happened?" Chen Hao asked after he walked out.

Guo Caifeng didn't answer her, but went straight into the house with red eyes. Xiaobei's mood was also obviously very bad. However, she said, "Chen Hao, there is trouble in the Yang family now. It is a complete mess."

"Something happened?"

Immediately, Xiaobei told him everything that had happened. Just as the Yang family was in a precarious position, the Long family unexpectedly stabbed the Yang family in the back by snatching away the main project belonging to the Yang family, which was also the biggest project that remained. Although it could still be said that the Yang family's wealth was abundant, at the end of the day, the family business' operating cost was high, and so they needed a lot of funds. Especially for this main project of the whole family, it was the Yang family's lifeline, so of course it would hurt a lot for them to lose such an important project.

As for Guo Ru, while she was getting scolded by Madame Yang, she didn't forget to push her responsibilities away. She forced Yang Xiaobei into bidding new projects for the enterprise. Madame Yang was also very angry, so she said that she wanted those who were not contributing to get lost; that statement was pointed at Xiaobei and Aunt Caifeng. This made both mother and daughter really angry.

"Hehe, so that's what happened? That's easy to settle," Chen Hao said. He couldn't help but smile bitterly after listening to the story.

"Chen Hao, it has already become like this. The family is in a mess. Don't make fun of me. My mum and I are really angry because it clearly was Uncle Yuting who caused this mess. Why are they blaming it on us?" Xiaobei said with some resentment.

"Why would I make fun of you? Actually, grandma is not being worried about losing this project. After all, the Yang family is in no big need of the money. She is simply anxious because the Yang family doesn't have any new projects. The key to the Yang family's enterprise is project development. If there's a project, it would be like a virtuous cycle of having endless advertisements for the enterprise. If there's no project, the enterprise would only get worse and worse, eventually turning into a vicious cycle. This is what grandma is anxious about," Chen Hao explained.

"You are right, Chen Hao. But although I'm in the project department, I don't know how to handle intimidating projects like these. All these are Guo Ru's responsibility. I understand that she's just trying to take advantage of the situation to kick my mother and I out of the family!"

"Then you go and try to bid a few major projects for her. I'll help you," Chen Hao said with a smile.

"Chen Hao, you are pulling my leg again."

"I'm not kidding. Really!" Chen Hao shook his head and took out his phone. After saying a few sentences, he faced Xiaobei and said, "Alright. In the afternoon, go to the headquarters of the Xinfeng Group. Somebody there will help you with project planning."

"Chen Hao, you know the people from the Xinfeng Group?" Actually, Xiaobei always felt that Chen Hao was very mysterious.

"Oh, I do. One of my schoolmates is there." Chen Hao played dumb. After all, he wasn't planning to completely expose his identity just yet. Although he had no particular secrets to hide from Xiaobei, some things were just difficult to explain. "Don't worry. When have I ever lied to you? When you are there, ask for somebody named Zhao Kang. He's in charge of the projects," Chen Hao said seriously. Xiaobei could see that her cousin was not lying to her. So, she nodded her head.

Actually, Chen Hao now controlled all the family businesses in China. Therefore, nothing was difficult for him.

Xiaobei didn't hesitate to act. After sorting everything out, she really went to Xinfeng Group, because she believed that her cousin would not pull such a big prank on her.

Xinfeng Group was Yan Jing City's super big enterprise. It wasn't a family business, but they were regarded by many family businesses as a cash cow; one could only imagine how strong they actually were. "Miss, we have many customers today. Please wait in the VIP zone." When Xiaobei arrived there, a customer service officer respectfully led Yang Xiaobei to the VIP waiting area.

As soon as she walked in, Yang Xiaobei raised her head and saw a few familiar faces. At the same time, those familiar faces all saw Yang Xiaobei.

"Tsk tsk tsk, isn't this Xiaobei? She's actually here?"
