Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 382 - 381: God of Luck

"Not busy, just having lunch with Four Eyes."

Su Mu didn’t intentionally leave out He Qiya.

In Su Mu’s mind, since Xuanxuan didn’t know He Qiya, there was no need to mention her.

As for what Xuanxuan said after that, Su Mu chose to ignore it directly.

After all, Su Mu had never intentionally delayed responding to Xuanxuan’s messages before.

It was merely a habit of his to not carry his phone on him once he got home.

"You’re having lunch so early?"

"I thought Four Eyes would go looking for his silhouette girl as soon as he got her info."

Jiang Xinxuan’s thinking was actually very normal.

Four Eyes was so eager to find someone, yet now that he had the info, he wasn’t in a hurry to meet the person in real life.

This really didn’t make sense.

"Probably Four Eyes isn’t fully prepared yet."

Searching for someone at Xinghuan Entertainment is one thing; after all, Four Eyes never really thought his silhouette girl was an employee there.

The chances of finding her at Xinghuan Entertainment were very slim.

But now the situation was different.

Li Minli’s personal information was written clearly in black and white.

Four Eyes now was sure to find her if he went looking.

It was equivalent to Four Eyes having a face-to-face meeting with his silhouette girl.

Naturally, Four Eyes had to fully prepare himself psychologically before going into battle.

"Speaking of which, isn’t it already late? It’s definitely lunchtime."

Su Mu glanced at the noticeably increasing number of customers in the restaurant and teased his girlfriend.

"Don’t you feel embarrassed for oversleeping?"

Of course, this was pure banter from Su Mu, who was just bored.

Four Eyes was still chatting with He Qiya on one side, and battling with his dessert on the other.

He Qiya, seeing that Su Mu was constantly holding his phone, seemingly texting, didn’t dare to disturb him.

She could only chat with Four Eyes in bits and pieces.

The three people who came to eat together now saw Su Mu becoming completely separate from them.

And He Qiya felt really frustrated inside.

She mainly came to the western restaurant hoping to interact more with Su Mu.

Now, how had it turned into her chatting with Four Eyes?

The key point was that He Qiya was not a person skilled at making conversation.

And with her personality, she actually didn’t like chatting at all.

But since Four Eyes was Su Mu’s friend, and the three of them would later go to the fitness club together,

He Qiya knew, for the sake of Su Mu’s face, she couldn’t completely ignore Four Eyes.

She had no choice but to adopt the pattern where Four Eyes carried most of the conversation, with He Qiya occasionally responding.

Su Mu was occupied chatting with his girlfriend and, naturally, didn’t notice He Qiya’s situation.

In Su Mu’s eyes, He Qiya and Four Eyes got along very harmoniously.

Su Mu even felt that at this rate, He Qiya was going to fit into society normally very soon.

He thought he would soon have one less tail to take care of.

"Isn’t it because of you?"

"How dare you say it’s my fault? Would I have slept so late if it wasn’t for last night?"

Jiang Xinxuan, thinking back to last night’s events, felt her face heating up.

Lucky for her, they were communicating through cellphones; otherwise, she wasn’t sure she’d dare say these words to Su Mu’s face.

"Don’t you like it? But from what I saw last night, you seemed to enjoy it quite a bit."

Su Mu was doing it on purpose, sometimes bantering and playfully teasing is a form of enjoyment between couples.

Jiang Xinxuan genuinely didn’t know how to respond this time.

It seemed that what Su Mu said was indeed true.

The way he behaved last night indeed said it all.

Jiang Xinxuan knew how he had acted last night; it wasn’t a matter of not liking it, it was probably adoration beyond words.

Both of them, fully aware of the situation, were chatting. How could Jiang Xinxuan even begin to retort?

Having no way to continue on Su Mu’s point, Jiang Xinxuan could only send a sweating emoji.

Jiang Xinxuan’s intention was to tell Su Mu that he was out of words and they could skip this topic.

Unfortunately, Su Mu was very free at the moment.

Four Eyes’ dessert hadn’t been finished off yet, and Su Mu knew he still had to sit in this Western restaurant for a while.

"Are you still sweating now? Could it be that last night’s effects were so intense, they’ve continued until now?"

Deliberately misinterpreting his girlfriend’s words, Su Mu was really showing a change of style right now.

At the sight of Su Mu’s WeChat message, Jiang Xinxuan’s hand shook.

If it weren’t for Jiang Xinxuan holding the phone with both hands, the phone would have probably already dropped to the floor.

Jiang Xinxuan really wasn’t quite accustomed to it.

Although, after Su Mu and he confirmed their relationship, especially after that trip when their relationship significantly progressed,

Su Mu would occasionally crack some harmless jokes with Jiang Xinxuan.

But today, for Su Mu to express himself so candidly through text messages, Jiang Xinxuan found it to be a first.

Jiang Xinxuan knew that Su Mu must be very idle at this time.

"Could it be you’re waiting for Four Eyes to finish lunch?"

As Su Mu didn’t switch the topic, it was up to Jiang Xinxuan to sidestep this sensitive issue himself.

Jiang Xinxuan feared that if he continued to get tangled up in this topic with Su Mu, he wouldn’t even need to leave his room later.

Because the more they talked, the redder Jiang Xinxuan’s face would get.

Moreover, Jiang Xinxuan felt that his parents must have known about his and Su Mu’s precise relationship after last night.

Of course, Jiang Xinxuan didn’t dare to leave his room with a red face.

If his mother didn’t say anything, Jiang Xinxuan knew his cousin would definitely tease him.

Fortunately, Jiang Xinxuan also had a good understanding of Four Eyes.

In front of delicious food, Four Eyes had no resistance.

Otherwise, Four Eyes wouldn’t have the physique of a little chubby kid.

Just now, Su Mu said he was having lunch with Four Eyes.

But Su Mu had plenty of time to joke around with him here.

Jiang Xinxuan didn’t need to ask further to guess that surely Su Mu had finished eating while Four Eyes was still struggling with the food.

That’s why Su Mu was so idly texting him jokes.

Jiang Xinxuan mostly guessed right, except for one thing he wouldn’t have considered.

Indeed, Four Eyes was still battling with the food, but it wasn’t just the food he was focusing on.

Four Eyes was also very enthusiastically chatting with a companion.

It’s just that this companion wasn’t Su Mu, because Su Mu never gave Four Eyes the chance.

Four Eyes was now chatting with He Qiya, whom Jiang Xinxuan didn’t recognize and didn’t know at all.

Su Mu glanced at the dessert that originally belonged to him but had been nearly devoured by Four Eyes.

Su Mu sent two words to his girlfriend: "Smart."

Four Eyes was indeed still enjoying the food.

And Su Mu was also waiting for Four Eyes to finish this lunch.

So Jiang Xinxuan’s comments were basically on the mark.

Jiang Xinxuan replied with a proud emoji.

Jiang Xinxuan had always had a soft spot for Four Eyes since he was good friends with Su Mu back in high school.

In high school, Jiang Xinxuan had noticed that Four Eyes really had an appetite that could rival any girl’s.

Four Eyes’ backpack, aside from some basic textbooks, was basically stuffed with snacks.

Back then, Jiang Xinxuan felt that Four Eyes definitely had the potential to become a fatty.

And Four Eyes truly lived up to Jiang Xinxuan’s expectations.

Over the three years of high school, Four Eyes’ figure gradually rounded out.

Until now, Four Eyes could be considered a legit little fatty.

Only, Jiang Xinxuan noticed that Four Eyes’ love of eating showed no sign of stopping.

Jiang Xinxuan always felt that Four Eyes was no longer content with just being a little fatty.

Perhaps one day Four Eyes would become a big fatty, right?

Jiang Xinxuan was not into exercising and stuff.

Of course, she wasn’t interested in her boyfriend’s fitness endeavors either.

Jiang Xinxuan didn’t know that, although Four Eyes was still battling with delicious food, he had already sided with Su Mu, the fitness guru.

Four Eyes felt that he was only one step away from shedding the title of little fatty.

That one step, of course, was the one where Four Eyes followed Su Mu into the gym.

"When does Four Eyes plan to find his silhouette girl?"

This question was now Jiang Xinxuan’s greatest curiosity.

After all, Four Eyes’ social circle had always been bustling.

Everyone was leaving messages in Four Eyes’ social feed, helping him count down.

Four Eyes had boldly declared he would succeed within seven days.

One day had already passed yesterday, which meant only six days remained.

Some classmates had even started making bets in Four Eyes’ social feed.

Jiang Xinxuan noticed that practically ninety percent of people were betting on Four Eyes ending in failure.

Everyone had known for three years whether Four Eyes had any luck with girls or not; they were all very clear on that.

Besides, this time Four Eyes had set a challenge for himself with a girl he didn’t even know.

Wasn’t this just doubling down on something he was already not good at?

Only a few classmates thought that, adding to the three years in kindergarten, the twelve years of schooling they’ve had included a term called "miracle."

Maybe Four Eyes could get a different outcome this time, maybe a miracle would happen, right?

People who believed in miracles, after all, were too few in number, so few they could be outright ignored.

In any case, Jiang Xinxuan saw nothing but voices of doom in Four Eyes’ social feed.

Although Jiang Xinxuan hadn’t joined in on the topic like those classmates in Four Eyes’ social feed,

nor had she expressed her own opinion,

Jiang Xinxuan also felt that Four Eyes’ chances of success were not high.

Basically, Jiang Xinxuan thought Four Eyes had no chance at all.

Unless Four Eyes truly was fated to meet that silhouette girl.

Then, all bets were off.

"This guy Four Eyes really hasn’t made a statement yet."

Su Mu hadn’t asked Four Eyes this question.

It seemed that even after getting Li Minli’s information, Four Eyes hadn’t mentioned it.

Su Mu really didn’t know when exactly Four Eyes planned to find his silhouette girl.

But Su Mu felt this was Four Eyes’ own matter.

After all, originally, Su Mu’s plan was just to take Four Eyes to Xinghuan Entertainment to find someone.

Although they hadn’t found the person directly, having Li Minli’s information was nearly the same.

Su Mu felt that he could now retire with honors.

"Alright, let me know if there’s any progress."

"I have to accompany my cousin to buy some jewelry this afternoon, so I might not have time to find you."

Recently, Jiang Xinxuan would surely be spending most of his time assisting his cousin Bai Wanting with her errands.

Jiang Xinxuan realized that even after returning to Huadong City, it seemed that the time he could spend with Su Mu was not very plentiful.

"Once you’re done, let me know. There’s a fireworks show tonight, and I’ll take you to see it in the evening."

Su Mu saw that his girlfriend said she was going to accompany Bai Wanting in the afternoon, so she should have time in the evening, right?

The fireworks event would not start until nine o’clock at night.

This way, it wouldn’t interfere with Su Mu’s promise to return home for dinner with the old man.

"Okay, I’ll tell you once I’m done shopping with my cousin."

A fireworks evening event would certainly be very romantic.

Thinking of doing something so romantic with her boyfriend, Jiang Xinxuan felt overjoyed, of course.

"I’m going downstairs now. If I don’t go out, my mom will definitely think I’m still sleeping in."

"See you tonight."

Plus several kissing emojis, it was clear that Jiang Xinxuan was very happy about Su Mu taking her to the fireworks evening event.

Thinking that he was the culprit behind Xuanxuan’s oversleeping, Su Mu also put away his phone.

It was already noon, and Xuanxuan indeed should have something to eat by now.

Su Mu knew, considering the exercise they had the night before, plus the fact that Xuanxuan had only just got up.

Xuanxuan’s stomach must surely be empty by now.

"Su Mu, do you have plans this afternoon?"

Just as Su Mu put his phone into his pocket, Four Eyes had almost simultaneously demolished his dessert.

Setting down his spoon, Four Eyes asked Su Mu earnestly.

Su Mu raised an eyebrow, sensing from Four Eyes’ expression that he might be about to ask something?

"Su Mu, if you’re free, could you accompany me to find Li Minli?"

"I would still be a bit scared going by myself. What if Li Minli thinks I’m a bad guy?"

"After all, to Li Minli, I am just a strange boy."

Four Eyes actually wanted to find his crush as soon as he got Li Minli’s information.

Only because he wasn’t yet ready, did Four Eyes delay until now.

Four Eyes thought that having lunch would give him enough time to muster up courage.

Who knew that even after finishing lunch, Four Eyes’ courage hadn’t increased one bit,

the more he pondered, the less courageous he felt.

Out of options, Four Eyes could only seek help from Su Mu.

Four Eyes felt that Li Minli’s information had been found with Su Mu’s help.

To him, Su Mu was like the God of Luck.

Deep down, Four Eyes believed that if Su Mu agreed to go with him to find Li Minli,

he would definitely succeed.

In a nutshell, Four Eyes did not dare to go looking for his crush alone.

Indeed, if Four Eyes had the guts, he wouldn’t have just watched her walk away yesterday without daring to take a step forward.

"Are you sure that if the two of us go together, Li Minli won’t think we’re both bad guys?"

Su Mu found it somewhat amusing.

According to Four Eyes’ logic, both he and Su Mu were boys.

If two unknown boys came looking for her at once, wouldn’t Li Minli be even more frightened?

"This? That seems to be true, too."

Touching his head, Four Eyes thought that Su Mu might indeed have a point.
