Luo Wei’s face was twisted with rage. “You bastards! My clothes are very expensive! Can you afford to compensate me if you ruined them? All of you are useless scum!”
“What did you say?”
Some workers took their beer bottles and started to crowd around Luo Wei.
Luo Wei trembled with fear. His face turned pale.
“Wh… wh… what do you want? I’m… I’m calling the police!” He stammered.
The people did not step back but instead squeezed closer to him. Luo Wei was scared out of his wits. He scuttled back into his car and quickly drove away.
“Pah! What a coward!”
The workers cursed loudly.
“Don’t worry about people like him, Bro! You can treat him as a smelly fart. Wave your hands, and he’ll go away!” They smiled at Tang Hao.
Tang Hao also smiled. “Thank you, big brothers!”
“Haha, don’t mention it! We’re done eating. Enjoy your food with your girl!”
They waved at Tang Hao and left the scene.
“Who’s that person, Brother Hao?” Yan’er asked him softly.
Tang Hao briefly explained to her about Luo Wei.
“That person is shameless. Why is he so arrogant? He’ll be shocked to death if he finds out about your accomplishments!” Yan’er said indignantly.
“Don’t bother reasoning with him!” Tang Hao said with a smile.
In his eyes, Luo Wei was nothing more than a bumbling clown. He was not worth his time.
After lunch, Tang Hao and Yan’er rode on his three-wheeled motorcycle and drove forward casually.
As they traveled along the road, they saw a school appearing in front of them.
Tang Hao was surprised. That was his junior high school.
He had spent three years there and had many fond memories of the place.
“Let’s go in and take a look!” Tang Hao said.
He drove his motorcycle there, identified himself to the security guard, and went into the school compound.

The entire school was silent.
The students were on their afternoon nap time. 1
Tang Hao slowly drove along the path that led into the school.
His surroundings were familiar to him. Every tree and flower brought back memories of the place.
“The scenery here is so beautiful, Brother Hao!”
Yan’er looked around as she sat in the back seat. She seemed curious and impressed.
The two people went around the school compound. When they came to a building, they saw two figures walking out of it.
The person on the left was a slightly plump young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He was Luo Wei, whom they met earlier.
The other person was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was also slightly plump and wore a pair of glasses.
The two people chatted happily as they walked.
The middle-aged man occasionally laughed heartily. The atmosphere was jovial.
“Oh, Luo Wei, I didn’t expect that you’re studying in a key university now! That’s amazing! I’m proud of you!” The middle-aged man said emotionally.
“That’s only because of your guidance, Teacher Fang!” Luo Wei said with a smile.
“Haha!” Teacher Fang laughed heartily. He was pleased with the flattery.
“It’s rare that we meet, Teacher Fang. How about we have dinner together later? It’s on me!” Luo Wei continued.
“Well… Alright!” Teacher Fang laughed happily.
The two people saw Tang Hao as they walked.
Luo Wei’s expression sank instantly. His face contorted viciously.
It was all because of Tang Hao that he was humiliated by a bunch of peasant workers.
He chuckled condescendingly.
‘Tang Hao didn’t even finish high school, and he’s out of a job. How dare he show up here?’
Luo Wei could come back to his junior high school because he had something worth showing off. He was studying at a key university. What else could Tang Hao do here, other than to make a fool of himself?
Teacher Fang was surprised.
He thought that the boy in front of him looked familiar, but he could not recall his name.
“You are…?”
“Teacher Fang, he’s the Tang Hao that I mentioned to you earlier!” Luo Wei said hastily, “He’s that high school dropout, Tang Hao!”
“Oh!” Teacher Fang understood.
He remembered who Tang Hao was. He had good results and managed to score himself a spot in First High.
However, that was the extent of his achievements.
Tang Hao had been an unremarkable student from a poor family in a mountain village. Teacher Fang did not have a deep impression of the kid, at least not as deep as Luo Wei.
He thought that Tang Hao would have achieved something for himself if he continued his studies in First High.
However, if he dropped out of high school, then there was no chance that he could accomplish anything.
Teacher Fang’s gaze became disinterested when he glanced at the three-wheeled motorcycle Tang Hao was riding.
‘This Tang Hao is nothing compared to Luo Wei!
‘Luo Wei is born in a well-off family and he’s studying in a key university. Tang Hao though, he should be working menial jobs for the rest of his life!’
“So you’re Tang Hao!” Teacher Fang said plainly.
Tang Hao furrowed his brows. He could sense the detachment in Teacher Fang’s demeanor.
He wanted to greet him happily. After all, Teacher Fang used to be his homeroom teacher.
However, he could not summon the enthusiasm.
He laughed bitterly. He did not expect that Teacher Fang was a materialistic person. There was no reason for Teacher Fang to treat him poorly, even though he might seem down on his luck.
On the other hand, Teacher Fang was so friendly toward Luo Wei.
Luo Wei grinned smugly when he saw that.
“I say, Tang Hao, how dare you set foot in here? You bring nothing but shame to this school.” Luo Wei shrieked mockingly.
Teacher Fang stood next to him and said nothing.
Luo Wei’s words might have been exaggerated, but a student like Tang Hao brought him no pride at all.
Tang Hao remained composed. “It’s nothing. I was thinking of donating some money to the school today,” he said with a smile.
Luo Wei and Teacher Fang were stunned when they heard that.
Then, they laughed out loud.
Luo Wei doubled over with laughter. His stomach was giving him cramps.
‘Hahaha! Did he say that he wants to donate money to the school? Hahaha! That’s the funniest joke I’ve ever heard in my life!
‘Who does he think he is? Is he some sort of a big boss or celebrity?
‘Hahaha! He’s just a poor loser! What right does he have to donate money to the school?
‘How shameless can he get?’
“Haha! How much money do you intend to donate? Five yuan? Ten?” Luo Wei said between fits of laughter.
Teacher Fang also laughed. ‘What is Tang Hao thinking?’ He thought, ‘He doesn’t have money, he rides a three-wheeled motorcycle, so how much money could he possibly have? Even if he could come up with a few hundred yuan, the school doesn’t need that money.’
“Earning money isn’t easy, Tang Hao. You ought to save it for yourself!” Teacher Fang said.
There was a hint of pity in his voice.
‘Tang Hao must be worried that we are looking down upon him, which is why he’s coming up with this donation nonsense!’
Tang Hao smiled. “I’m serious. I’ll donate five million yuan for now!”
The two people were shocked when they heard that.
This time, even Teacher Fang burst out laughing. The pity in his eyes became more evident.
‘Something must be
wrong with this kid’s brain! Could he be any more ridiculous?
‘Five million yuan?
‘What a joke. I can’t even make that much money in my life as a teacher! How could Tang Hao have so much money?
‘You shouldn’t boast to your teacher like that! Does he think that we’re all idiots?’
Tang Hao remained composed as they laughed, while Yan’er was indignant.
‘Five million yuan is nothing to Tang Hao! He’s already donated ten million yuan to First High!’
At that time, someone heard the commotion and came over. He was a bespectacled, balding man in his fifties with a stern expression.
“Isn’t that Teacher Fang? Why are you laughing so loudly? Don’t you know that it’s nap time for the kids?” The person said seriously.
“Dean!” Teacher Fang greeted the man.
That was the school’s dean of students.
“Pardon us for the commotion, Dean, but that person is too funny. He says that he wants to donate five million yuan to the school! Haha! Don’t you think that it’s funny?”
Luo Wei could not contain his laughter as he spoke.
The dean of students was surprised when he looked at Tang Hao.
He nearly rolled his eyes when he saw him on the three-wheeled motorcycle.
‘What? Someone on a three-wheeled motorcycle thinks he has five million yuan? Isn’t he a con artist?’
“What’s your name?” He said sternly.
Tang Hao smiled. “My name is Tang Hao. Here’s my name card!”
Tang Hao took out a name card from his pocket and handed it to the dean of students with both hands.
“Oh, you have a name card, too!’ The dean of students chuckled while taking it.
Chapter 476 - The Real Deal

“Let me see what you have printed on it!” The dean of students mumbled to himself.
He did not seem too impressed. In fact, he seemed rather condescending.
‘What can this kid who drives a worthless three-wheeled motorcycle do? And he says he wants to donate five million? What a joke!
‘He shouldn’t have boasted!’
“Oh? A name card? What a wannabe!” Luo Wei also mocked.
The dean of students brought the name card close to his face. The smile on his face froze, and utter shock and confusion replaced it.
He did not believe his eyes, and he looked at it carefully again.
However, the words on the name card were as clear as they could get.
He was not mistaken. “Chairman” and “Haotian Group” were indeed written on the card.
He was stunned for a while. Then, he started chuckling. “Pfft!”
‘How could this kid be the chairman of a group?
‘Haha! What kind of a joke is this?’
Teacher Fang and Luo Wei were curious about the dean’s reaction. They leaned over to see, was momentarily stunned, and started laughing.
“How shameless can you be, Tang? I thought you’d be faking a department manager at most, but your shamelessness has blown away my expectations.
“Chairman? Haha! Do you even look like one, you loser?”
Luo Wei started mocking again.
Teacher Fang shook his head. There was a hint of mockery in his eyes.
‘He rides on a three-wheeled motorcycle, yet he calls himself the chairman of a group of companies? That’s utterly ridiculous! Only a baby would believe that!
‘Moreover, how could a chairman be this young!
‘Even if he has rich parents, it’s impossible that they make him a chairman at age nineteen. Tang Hao does not have rich parents and comes from a mountain village.
‘Did he build his business from scratch? That’s even more impossible!’
They laughed for a while until the dean of students furrowed his brows.
“Eh! I think I’ve heard of Haotian Group before. Weren’t they founded not too long ago? I think I read it in the newspaper,” he mumbled.
Teacher Fang was also surprised. “Now that you mention it, I think I’ve read about it too. Haotian Group’s formation was all over the newspapers a while ago.
“I’ve heard that the group is quite amazing. Masculine Wind aphrodisiac and divine liquor are their products.”
The dean of students immediately became excited. “Right, right! That aphrodisiac is miraculous!”
His eyes were sparkling with excitement.
He realized that something was not quite right. “Ahem! Don’t look at me like that. Do I look like someone who uses that? I’m a serious man. I don’t need that.
“Right. What was the name of the chairman again? I think the news mentioned it…” he mumbled.
Teacher Fang furrowed his brows. “I don’t remember either, but in any case, he must be a great person.”
“Right, he’s great!’ The dean of students nodded.
The chairman of Haotian Group must be a wealthy person worth billions.
How could that person be a nineteen-year-old teenager riding a three-wheeled motorcycle?
“Impersonating a public figure is wrong, young man! It’s fine if you are poor, but as long as you can work hard and be honest, you’ll make a name for yourself.
“But what you’re doing now is wrong! You shouldn’t impersonate someone else to earn respect!”
The dean of students pushed his glasses and started lecturing Tang Hao.
Meanwhile, Teacher Fang took out his phone and started searching on the Internet. “What’s his name again? This is strange. Why can’t I remember it?” He mumbled.
“There it is!” He shouted after a while.
However, his face immediately froze.
“What’s wrong?”
The dean of students and Luo Wei leaned over to see, and they were instantly shocked.
“H… how… how could this b… be?’ Teacher Fang stammered. He could not believe what he saw.
The dean of students also could not believe it. He forced a laugh. “Coincidence! That must be a coincidence! It just happens that they have the same name. That’s why the kid dares to impersonate him!”
