Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 21: The Theory of the Wealthy

"Su Mu, springing this on us really caught me off guard!"

"And to think, my only sense of superiority has been shattered by you. How can anyone live with that?"

Watching the drama king Four Eyes, everyone was immediately amused.

The atmosphere became lively, and everyone began to open up.

"Su Mu, it really is incredible how you can be so rich and yet choose to live like an ordinary person. Is this what you call experiencing the common touch?"

"Exactly, I used to think my family was pretty wealthy. Compared to you, I’m embarrassed to even call myself a second-generation rich kid."

"It looks like we all have to learn from you. This is what the real philosophy of a rich life is."

...

The people who hadn’t spoken up to help Su Mu when Zhu Haoyu was giving him a hard time were now regretting it, and everyone crowded around, hoping to make an impression on Su Mu.

Su Mu just smiled and said nothing.

Zhu Haoyu and Wang Mingqi both had red faces, unable to say a word.

When it came to academic performance, Wang Mingqi couldn’t compare with Su Mu.

In terms of romance, Jiang Xinxuan was already paired up with Su Mu, and Zhu Haoyu had no hope left.

Soon, a row of waiters set down dish after dish of delicious-looking food on the table.

"Young master, please enjoy your meal. If you need anything, just call for me," Yang Liming said respectfully, bending at the waist next to Su Mu.

After Su Mu nodded, Yang Liming stepped out.

"Everyone dig in. There’s no point in just talking about me."

Everyone had already been enticed by the aroma and, hearing Su Mu’s words, they immediately picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

Su Mu glanced at Zhu Haoyu, who was obviously trying to lower his presence and shrinking into silence.

He smirked, now not so cocky, are we?

However, Su Mu wasn’t ready to let his classmate become a shrinking turtle.

That’s not a virtue, is it?

"But, there is one thing classmate Zhu Haoyu got right."

"I had indeed never dined at the Kaiman Hotel before."

Those who were enjoying the meal were stunned.

Really?

The young master of the Su Family Group has never dined at the Kaiman Hotel?

That was his own family’s hotel!

At the puzzled looks of everyone, Su Mu smiled like a breath of spring.

"Mainly because my mom thinks it’s too much hassle to come over just for a meal, so she has the head chef come to our house instead."

A lightbulb moment.

So that’s what it was.

Everyone didn’t think Su Mu was showing off; he had the means to do so.

The hotel belonged to Su Mu’s family. A head chef? He still works for Su Mu’s family, doesn’t he?

Besides, Su Mu has been low-key for so many years, why would he show off on such a trivial matter?

Everyone nodded unconsciously, fully agreeing with Su Mu’s mother’s reasoning.

If the Kaiman Hotel were theirs, they wouldn’t bother coming to the hotel to eat either.

The true philosophy of the wealthy!

The words that someone had spoken earlier popped into everyone’s minds.

It really is the truth!

Zhu Haoyu?

The person who had almost been forgotten was brought back into the spotlight by Su Mu’s mention.

Almost forgot about that. It was Zhu Haoyu who had teased Su Mu the most.

Now, knowing Su Mu’s true identity, why has he become so silent?

"Zhu Haoyu, are you satisfied with my explanation?"

Just as Zhu Haoyu didn’t know how to face everyone’s questioning eyes, Su Mu delivered the final blow.

"Ah?"

"Satisfied, satisfied, I was just too ignorant, I’m sorry."

Having realized the gap between himself and Su Mu, Zhu Haoyu instantly conceded defeat.

Now, seeing Jiang Xinxuan snuggling up to Su Mu, Zhu Haoyu didn’t find it irritating anymore.

Especially when even his own family’s proud wealth seemed worthless in front of Su Mu.

What right did Zhu Haoyu have to compete with Su Mu over Jiang Xinxuan?

His eyes swept over Wang Mingqi, whose face had already turned a beet red.

Seeing that Wang Mingqi didn’t push himself forward, Su Mu decided not to hold a grudge against him.

But everyone was well aware of the situation.

The gathering had been organized by Wang Mingqi and Zhu Haoyu, and they had chosen the hotel as well.

Although it had been Zhu Haoyu who had been giving Su Mu a hard time just now, Wang Mingqi was certainly not blameless.

...

What was supposed to be a gathering to embarrass Su Mu turned into the stage for revealing his true identity.

The meal was quite suffocating for Wang Mingqi and Zhu Haoyu.

With delicious dishes in front of them, both men could scarcely take a bite.

Yet in the face of Su Mu’s formidable strength, they didn’t dare show any dissatisfaction and continued to smile and accompany him.

When the dinner ended, and everyone was discussing the next venue.

Wang Mingqi and Zhu Haoyu coincidentally chose to leave.

Everyone clearly understood the reason, so of course, no one stayed to persuade them to stay.

Everyone felt that now that the exams had ended, they were adults and naturally should go somewhere adults go to unwind.

Undoubtedly, a nightclub became the first choice.

"Want to go?"

Su Mu had no problems with it, just not sure if Jiang Xinxuan would like it or not.

"If you go, I’ll go."

Jiang Xinxuan entirely assumed the demeanor of a little woman, far from her lofty manner at school.

"Alright, stop showing off your love in front of us single folks."

"It’s absolutely heart-wrenching."

Who knows who started teasing, but everyone cooperated by clutching their hearts.

Jiang Xinxuan stomped her foot, her face flushing with embarrassment as she lowered her head.

Su Mu wrapped his arm around Jiang Xinxuan and led the way out.

"Today’s on me, hurry up if you want to come, lag behind and you’ll miss the chance."

Watching Su Mu leave the private room, everyone else followed him out.

At the entrance of the Kaiman Hotel, Yang Liming had been waiting there for a while.

He figured it was about time for the young master and his friends to finish their meal.

Of course, Yang Liming had to personally see off the young master.

"General Manager Yang, what VIP has come to the hotel that you’re personally here to receive them?"

The shift leader asked in bewilderment, standing behind the general manager.

Having worked at the hotel for some years, he had never seen the general manager personally standing at the entrance to greet anyone.

Could it be that the owner was coming?

The shift leader straightened his clothes; if it really was who he thought, it would be his first time seeing the big boss, so naturally, he wanted to make a good impression.

"The Crown Prince came to dine in the hotel, do you think that’s a VIP?"

Yang Liming looked displeasedly at the noisy shift leader.

Really, if the young master were to see that this was the work attitude of the hotel’s staff, who knows what he would think.

"The Crown Prince?"

The shift leader gasped in surprise and quickly closed his mouth under Yang Liming’s scrutinizing look.

Indeed, a significant figure.

The shift leader wisely took a step back and stopped talking.

"Su Mu, let’s meet directly at the entrance of the nightclub then,"

Everyone was being chauffeured by their family cars, so there was no need for Su Mu to handle these minor details.

"Sure, see you later."

In the hotel lobby, others bid farewell to Su Mu and scattered, ready to gather at the next location.
