Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 20 Impulsivity is the Devil

Only Jiang Xinxuan knew Su Mu’s true identity among those present.

Zhu Haoyu and Wang Mingqi had also put some thought into coming up with this scheme to deal with Su Mu.

Since they couldn’t compete on ability, they could only rely on their family wealth to press down on Su Mu.

Both of them felt that this method was the most effective way to deal with Su Mu.

"Su Mu, go ahead and eat your fill, you’ve probably never been to a five-star hotel like this before, right?"

"Try this, it’s the Kaiman Hotel’s signature dish. Who knows when you’ll be able to eat such upscale food again."

As he spoke, Zhu Haoyu shook his head in feigned sympathy.

Silence

The private room quieted down suddenly because of Zhu Haoyu’s words.

Others hadn’t expected Zhu Haoyu to belittle Su Mu so at the graduation gathering.

Some wanted to speak up for Su Mu, but for the moment, didn’t know what to say.

Others merely watched from the sidelines.

Su Mu saw everyone’s reactions and just smiled, his face showing indifference.

In the past, he might have truly not been able to afford this meal.

But now well...

"Are you hungry? Go ahead and eat."

Unaffected, Su Mu said gently to Jiang Xinxuan.

"Here, try this."

Jiang Xinxuan, slightly shy, placed a slice of foie gras into the bowl in front of Su Mu.

Zhu Haoyu, his eyes blinded by jealousy, saw the goddess of his heart behaving so demurely with Su Mu, and his inner fury burned even more intensely.

It’s said that impulse is the devil.

Especially for those blinded by jealousy.

Zhu Haoyu, fixated on the interactions between Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan, completely overlooked the markedly different attire Su Mu was wearing today.

"Su Mu, this goose liver is imported from France, you’ve never eaten it before, have you?"

Su Mu had originally not planned to respond to Zhu Haoyu’s provocation.

Everyone would go their separate ways after this gathering, and Su Mu didn’t want someone like Zhu Haoyu to spoil the mood.

Unfortunately, some people just act insensibly; if you ignore them, they think they have the upper hand, their pride is unmistakable.

Shaking his head internally, Su Mu reckoned that Zhu Haoyu really was brainless.

Today, Su Mu was anything but low-key; the Patek Philippe sports series diamond-studded watch on his wrist alone was worth two hundred and thirty-six thousand.

Where Zhu Haoyu got the impression that Su Mu was still a poor boy was anyone’s guess.

Waving over a waiter, Su Mu whispered a few words into the waiter’s ear.

The waiter’s eyes widened, bowed to Su Mu, and then dashed off.

The people in the private room were stunned once more. What was happening?

The Kaiman Hotel was known for good service, but not for bowing to customers for no reason.

What exactly had Su Mu said to that waiter?

Zhu Haoyu was about to say something when Wang Mingqi pulled him back.

From the start of Zhu Haoyu’s provocation, Wang Mingqi had been observing closely.

He’d felt that Su Mu was somehow different today, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.

It wasn’t until Su Mu used his hand to block his conversation with the waiter that Wang Mingqi realized what was different.

Su Mu was decked out in designer gear today!

The watch on his wrist was indeed a diamond series Patek Philippe!

Suddenly, Wang Mingqi felt that today’s gathering might not follow the script he and Zhu Haoyu had imagined.

Seeing that he had just gained the upper hand, Wang Mingqi intervened at this moment to stop him.

Zhu Haoyu was somewhat puzzled, but the situation had also given Zhu Haoyu a vague sense that something was amiss. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Sheepishly taking a seat, Zhu Haoyu also became less impulsive after he sobered up a bit.

Clearly, that waiter just now had some insider information.

Zhu Haoyu felt it was better to assess the situation before doing anything else.

Zhu Haoyu was originally jealous because Jiang Xinxuan only treated Su Mu, the opposite sex, especially well at school.

Zhu Haoyu also knew that his affection for Jiang Xinxuan was just wishful thinking on his part.

Now that he had calmed down, some of his intelligence seemed to have returned.

The atmosphere was no longer lively; everyone had lowered their heads and started eating.

"Young Master, I’m sorry, I didn’t know you came to dine at the Kaiman Hotel, it was my negligence."

The quiet atmosphere was broken by the entrance of the waiter who had run out earlier, followed by a middle-aged man.

The man walked up to Su Mu, bending over as he spoke.

Su Mu hooked the corner of his mouth, If you don’t introduce yourself, how am I supposed to know who you are?

"Oh, right, Young Master, I’m Yang Liming, the general manager of Kaiman Hotel."

It seemed the man realized his abruptness and voluntarily gave his name.

Just now, Su Mu had told the waiter that he was Su Mu, the young master of the Su Family Group.

The waiter naturally knew that the Kaiman Hotel was part of the Su Family Group, which was why she ran off immediately to look for the general manager as Su Mu had instructed.

The delay was because the general manager didn’t recognize his own Young Master; naturally, he needed to confirm.

After receiving personal confirmation from Su Ruizhi, Yang Liming didn’t dare to delay a second longer and ran straight into the private room.

"Young Master? Su Mu, you’re the Young Master of the Kaiman Hotel?"

When it comes to making a ruckus, nobody could beat Four Eyes.

"The Kaiman Hotel is under the Su Family Group, so doesn’t that make you part of the Su Family Group..."

"Wait, the Su Family Group, and your last name is also Su, could it be such a coincidence?"

Four Eyes was remarkably quick-witted for once, instantly making the connection to Su Mu’s identity.

The others were also looking at Su Mu with shocked expressions.

The Su Family Group, a conglomerate worth a hundred billion.

Most of these people were from wealthy families and had some understanding of the business affairs in Huadong City.

They had heard that the Su Family Group was preparing for an IPO recently.

What kind of terrifying presence would it have after going public?

Everyone felt a profound shock within their hearts.

After being classmates for three years, besides being known as a top student and a handsome guy, Su Mu was also very low-profile in everyone’s eyes.

Of course, this low-profile was due to the seemingly ordinary family circumstances that Su Mu showed.

"Su Mu, could it be that you’ve been keeping a low profile just to experience the life of an ordinary person?"

This was the only explanation Four Eyes could come up with.

The others agreed deeply, nodding in assent.

Su Mu was momentarily stunned; he too was compelled, wasn’t he?

Of course, there were some things Su Mu wouldn’t discuss in front of people who weren’t important.

"Let’s eat. I’ll treat everyone to this meal."

"Manager Yang, bring out all the signature dishes here."

Su Mu changed the subject and instructed the general manager of the Kaiman Hotel.

"Okay, Young Master, I’ll make sure the kitchen prepares it right away."

Yang Liming was still speaking with a bow.

Su Mu waved his hand nonchalantly, signaling that Yang Liming could leave.

"Young Master, please enjoy your meal, I have to get going to take care of things."

Now that the Young Master was at the hotel, Yang Liming naturally had to personally see to it.
