After the universally disliked young master is reborn, the older sisters panic.
Chapter 38: I've had the worst luck in eight lifetimes!
The Chen family's living room.
Chen Xian looked at her father anxiously, "Dad, the Nan family insists that Xiao Hao try on the formal attire."
"It's just trying on dresses, why does someone have to go?" Mr. Chen asked, puzzled.
Who goes to the wedding to try on wedding attire? It's not like it's a wedding.
Chen Xian sighed, "The Nan family heard rumors and said they wanted to change the bride. They made it clear that if they changed the bride, they would cancel the marriage alliance."
"They dare to cancel? Without the Chen family, who would marry his daughter!" Mr. Chen shouted angrily.
"The Nan family can take in a son-in-law who lives with them," Chen Xian whispered a reminder.
With assets exceeding 100 million, it's easy to find a son-in-law to live with the family; this is far better than paying a dowry and marrying off one's daughter.
Mr. Chen choked, and stammered, "Maybe no one will come."
This is nothing but Chen's father deceiving himself.
With such generous terms, even if the Nan family's daughter were bedridden and paralyzed, people would still come to her door.
"Dad, let's bring Xiaohao back. If the marriage alliance is canceled, the cooperation we just agreed on with the Nan family will also be gone," Chen Xian suggested softly.
For both public and private reasons, Chen Hao should be brought back; he is, after all, a child of the Chen family.
Upon hearing this, Chen's father shouted, "Impossible! You want me to beg that bastard?"
Unless I die! "
No sooner had she finished speaking than Chen Wan stormed in angrily, “Dad, that bastard Chen Hao stole my leading role!”
Behind her followed Chen Qian, who looked on with amusement. As soon as he stepped into the living room, Chen Qian put away his smile and put on a look of self-reproach.
Chen Xian frowned slightly and scolded, "Xiao Wan, Xiao Hao is your brother, how could you scold him?"
"A younger brother? Having a younger brother like this is the worst luck imaginable!" Chen Wan shouted angrily.
"Xiao Wan, you..."
"Tell me, how did Chen Hao steal your leading lady role?" Chen's father interrupted Chen Wan's lecture.
Now he can't stand seeing others speak up for that rebellious son.
At this moment, Chen Qian reached out and wiped his eyes, choking out, "Dad, this is all my fault. If we hadn't had that falling out, my brother wouldn't have targeted my second sister."
Chen Wan patted Chen Qian's shoulder tenderly and comforted him softly, "Xiao Qian, don't be sad, it's not your fault."
It's all that ungrateful wretch's fault.
Mr. Chen frowned and said impatiently, "Enough! Someone tell me what's going on here?"
"Dad, that ingrate..." Chen Wan recounted the whole story with added embellishments.
Finally, she pleaded in a sweet voice, "Dad, you must help me win back the lead actress. I've waited so long for this opportunity."
Mr. Chen's eyes darted around, ignoring what she said next, and asked, "You said that drama was invested in by Chen Hao?"
“Dad, it definitely wasn’t him who invested. How could he possibly have money?” Chen Wan said with a disdainful look.
How could a poor country boy possibly have tens of millions? She would never believe it, not even if you beat her to death.
It must have been Chen Hao who tricked Young Master Gu into paying for it, while he was just a figurehead.
What a brilliant tactic! She's determined to expose Chen Hao's true colors.
Mr. Chen turned to Chen Xian and instructed, "Go and find out what Chen Hao has been doing lately? Where did he get the money to invest?"
"Yes, Dad," Chen Xian nodded in agreement.
She was also very curious about what Chen Hao had been doing these past few days and how he had made so much money.
Seeing that her father's attention was only on Chen Hao, she sat down next to him, gently shook his hand, and said coquettishly, "Dad, help me get this lead actress."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen pried her hands away and his face darkened. "I'll only offer ten million. If we don't have this female lead, then we'll find another drama."
"Dad, this is the one I've got my eye on!" Chen Wan screamed.
If I were to quit like this, I don't know how many people would laugh at me.
And she lost to Chen Hao, how could she accept that!
"Shut up!" Chen's father roared. "Over the years, I've spent a lot of money on you, and tell me, what kind of result have you achieved?"
No money was returned, just a waste of money!
This is the last time. If you don't become famous, come back here and be a useless rich girl again!
In the past, people were willing to support celebrities because they valued their earning power.
If they become popular, their products can also reach new heights.
I never expected to spend so much money and get absolutely no benefit!
He won't do business at a loss.
"Dad, ten million is not enough at all!" Chen Wan shouted.
For a famous director's drama, ten million yuan could only get her the role of the third female lead at most, which was far from what she had expected.
She's going to play the leading lady!
"Then there won't be a single cent!" Chen's father said sternly.
He then waved the person away, saying, "Get out now, I don't want to see you."
Seeing her father's unyielding expression, Chen Wan stomped her foot angrily, turned around, and ran out.
Seeing this, Chen Qian also ran out.
Meanwhile, in the eastern underground city of Licheng, a group of people were also talking about Chen Hao.
In the dimly lit room, Boss Zhang lay on the floor, barely alive.
A man sitting at the head of the table sneered at Boss Zhang on the ground, "You've gambled away my Treasure Pavilion. You've got some nerve."
"Brother Lei, it was really an accident. It was that kid who hurt me. He's the one who gave me these injuries," Boss Zhang said weakly.
Even if he dies today, he'll drag that kid down with him!
If it weren't for Chen Hao, he wouldn't have lost the Treasure Pavilion.
"Chen Hao? You can't even handle an eighteen-year-old kid? You're a complete waste." Brother Lei shouted angrily.
Boss Zhang took a deep breath and cried out, "Brother Lei, it doesn't matter if I die, but I can't swallow this insult. You have to teach that kid a lesson, otherwise..."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely get my revenge, otherwise how will I ever show my face here again? As for you, you'll atone with your death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Brother Lei ordered his men behind him, "Clean it up."
At the critical moment, Boss Zhang shouted, "Brother Lei, please spare me, I can help you take back Zhenpinlou."
"Heh, how can we take it back now that it's already in Boss Tang's hands?" Brother Lei sneered. "Hurry up and make your move."
"Yes!" The subordinate deftly snapped Boss Zhang's neck.
Mr. Zhang's noisy voice stopped abruptly, his eyes bulging out, dying with his eyes wide open.
"Find out detailed information about Chen Hao for me," Brother Lei ordered sternly.
Chen Hao had no idea that many people were eyeing him.
Right now, he was flipping through the items he had brought from Chenjia Village, looking at the book the old man had given him, and curiously turning the pages.
I never imagined that the few moves the old man taught him would have so many more moves to come.
In his previous life, he was so busy pleasing the Chen family that he never even opened this book.
The more he watched, the more excited he became. He then ran downstairs to the practice room and practiced, becoming more and more energetic with each session.
Hearing the commotion, Gu Xingzhou came in and saw Chen Hao practicing his martial arts. He said in a low voice, "Brother Hao, we have bodyguards with us when we go out. There's no need to work so hard."
He disliked sports from a young age, and whenever his father and sister asked him to exercise, he would slack off whenever possible.
