Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 494 - 493: The Arrogant Look

Su Mu knew that if it hadn’t been for that night when he and Xuanxuan got a bit too excited in the movie theater.

Afterwards, Xuanxuan took a little too long to recover her strength and return home.

It was likely that Xuanxuan’s parents still didn’t know that their daughter had been "devoured" completely by Su Mu, right?

If Xuanxuan’s parents were unaware of these things, they probably wouldn’t be in such a hurry to meet Su Mu.

Of course, this was just Su Mu’s understanding.

In fact, as soon as Xuanxuan’s parents heard from Bai Wanting that their daughter already had a boyfriend.

And that this boyfriend was Su Mu, Xuanxuan’s parents became extremely anxious to meet him.

Especially Xuanxuan’s mother.

Because of the number five Metro Economic Circle center plot, Xuanxuan’s mother had heard her husband praise the young master of the Su Family, Su Mu, countless times.

Naturally, Su Mu’s name was also deeply etched in Bai Mingyun’s mind.

Now knowing that her daughter was dating the young master of the Su Family, Bai Mingyun certainly was very eager to meet Su Mu.

So, even without that night’s incident, it was quite normal for Su Mu to be invited by his girlfriend’s parents.

Who would have thought that Su Mu would be so well-known.

However, Su Mu thought this was the result of his own "good deeds," and therefore didn’t feel wronged.

"It could be like that," he muttered.

Su Mu didn’t want to correct his mother’s misunderstanding. As long as the topic was shifted, it was alright.

Of course, Su Mu wouldn’t lead his mother to consider why Xuanxuan’s parents were so eager to meet him.

Although Su Mu wouldn’t be embarrassed to let his own parents know about what happened between him and his girlfriend.

But since his mother wasn’t thinking in that direction, Su Mu naturally wouldn’t voluntarily tell her about those matters.

After all, it was Su Mu’s privacy, and there were certain things he didn’t feel the need to share with his parents.

"Xiao Mu, what do Xuanxuan’s parents think of you?"

"But I have confidence in my son, Xuanxuan’s parents must like you very much," said Bai Xiuping, immediately answering her own question.

It was like a rhetorical question in Chinese language, where she asked and answered herself.

Bai Xiuping’s proud demeanor indicated she wasn’t the least bit worried that Jiang Xinxuan’s parents might have a bad impression of her son.

After all, when it came to looks, Bai Xiuping knew no one could compare with her son.

Even those so-called popular stars, if they stood next to Su Mu, would feel inferior and hide away.

Bai Xiuping knew that if her son wanted to join the entertainment industry, all those young idols would have no chance.

This wasn’t blind confidence on Bai Xiuping’s part; it was a fact clear for anyone with eyes to see Su Mu’s handsomeness.

When it came to external appearance, Bai Xiuping didn’t need to worry at all, it was a straight full mark.

As for substance, Su Mu was a top student, the envy of other parents.

This too wasn’t something to worry about.

Thus, for the meeting with his girlfriend’s parents, Bai Xiuping was very much at ease.

The question was more of a formality.

Otherwise, why would Bai Xiuping provide an answer immediately after asking?

"Mom, you’ve answered the question yourself, do I still need to respond?" asked Su Mu, finding his mother’s self-questioning amusing.

"Xiao Mu, it’s just normal concern from your mother, after all, this is the first time you’re meeting your girlfriend’s parents, isn’t it?"

"Of course, Mom has absolute confidence in you, so there’s no need for you to answer that."

Bai Xiuping’s explanation was quite reasonable and had no flaws.

Su Mu gave his mother a thumbs-up. It’s no wonder she’s Su Family Group’s Director Bai, with such eloquence.

"Xiao Mu, now that you’ve officially visited Xuanxuan’s parents, when will you bring Xuanxuan home to meet Grandpa, Dad, and me?"

"Last time was really too hurried, and I didn’t get the chance to have a good chat with Xuanxuan."

"Right, Xuanxuan didn’t attend the Su Family Group’s celebration party, which must be related to her cousin’s marriage, right?"

Bai Xiuping recalled that Xuanxuan hadn’t attended the Su Family Group’s celebration party and had even made a point of letting Su Mu and herself know in advance.

Thinking about it now, Xuanxuan must have rushed to her uncle’s house because of her cousin’s marriage affairs.

Although Su Mu hadn’t mentioned much about Bai Wanting’s marriage.

But considering how Xuanxuan hastily went with her mother to Huangtong City.

And later, Bai Wanting’s wedding photos were taken in Huadong City.

Bai Xiuping was certain there must be a story there.

As for what kind of story, the dramas of today’s youth are pretty much the same old patterns.

Either a premarital pregnancy or a private lifelong commitment, or else a sudden surprise for the family.

Bai Xiuping was too lazy to guess what the matter was.

However, from the fact that Xuanxuan’s mother brought her niece and future nephew-in-law back to Huadong City, it could be seen that.

Xuanxuan’s uncle definitely did not agree with his daughter’s marriage initially.

As to why Xuanxuan’s uncle changed his attitude so quickly, Bai Xiuping really didn’t know.

As for people unrelated to herself, or whom she doesn’t even know, Bai Xiuping naturally wouldn’t spend the energy to care about these matters.

For Bai Xiuping, her son had already formally visited his girlfriend’s home.

So it would be perfectly normal to invite Xiao Mu to bring his girlfriend home to meet everyone, right?

This also shows the importance the Su Family places on Xiao Mu and Xuanxuan’s relationship, doesn’t it?

Anyway, Bai Xiuping really likes the girl Jiang Xinxuan.

Although Bai Xiuping isn’t very familiar with Jiang Xinxuan’s mother, Bai Mingyun.

Even less so compared to Huang Yuqin.

But her son’s feelings aren’t divided according to her own friendships, and Bai Xiuping is very clear about that.

She didn’t feel that just because she was good friends with Huang Yuqin, Xiao Mu should be together with the girl Yao Yao.

Bai Xiuping thought that comparing the two girls themselves, Jiang Xinxuan was a better match for Xiao Mu than He Qiya.

He Qiya used to be very cute and sunny, but now she seems a bit too cold in Bai Xiuping’s eyes.

Although Bai Xiuping felt sorry for He Qiya’s experiences, when it came to her son’s happiness, Xiao Mu’s feelings were naturally the top priority.

Bai Xiuping had never thought of interfering in Xiao Mu’s love life.

So regarding He Qiya, Bai Xiuping was helpless.

Of course, if Xiao Mu had chosen Yao Yao from the start, Bai Xiuping wouldn’t have objected, either.

Bai Xiuping was afraid her son would be unwilling, but she even went as far as bringing up the patriarch.

Bai Xiuping and Su Ruizhi had already met Xiao Mu’s girlfriend.

If Xiao Mu used that as an excuse to decline, Bai Xiuping had also thought of a countermeasure.

She and her husband had met Xuanxuan, but the patriarch hadn’t yet.

Bai Xiuping felt that Xiao Mu should now have no reason not to bring his girlfriend home, right?

Actually, Bai Xiuping really overthought things.

Bringing Xuanxuan home really wasn’t a big deal for Su Mu.

Su Mu felt that his relationship with Xuanxuan was a normal romance.

Moreover, Su Mu never intended to hide his relationship with Xuanxuan from his family.

Otherwise, Su Mu wouldn’t have brought Xuanxuan with him to the bell-ringing ceremony when the Su Family Group went public that day.

"When Xuanxuan and I come back from Huangtong City, we’ll pick a time when you and Dad, Grandpa are all available," he said.

Su Mu thought that arranging time with Xuanxuan was easy.

How busy could two students waiting to start college be?

Grandpa was fine, too. Since it was about bringing Xuanxuan home, Su Mu felt that as long as he informed Grandpa in advance, there shouldn’t be any big problems.

Ever since Su Mu moved back to the castle, he had noticed.

The old man generally didn’t go out.

Except for events like this afternoon that interested the old man, it was generally hard to persuade him to leave the house.

So, that Old Man Gu today was really quite detestable.

Old Man Gu couldn’t afford that price himself, and just to cause trouble, he even ruined the old man’s purpose for going out today.

But fortunately, in the end, the old man made Old Man Gu taste the meaning of "evil begets evil" and "one who does evil cannot live."

If it weren’t for seeing Old Man Gu’s final state, Su Mu would’ve felt that he got off too lightly.

Among the five people, only his parents’ schedules were harder to predict.

So, Su Mu thought that bringing Xuanxuan back home to meet the elders mainly depended on when his parents were available.

Su Mu didn’t need to notify his girlfriend in advance.

The last time Su Mu mentioned it to Xuanxuan, she agreed without any hesitation.

Not a hint of hesitation.

Su Mu knew that Xuanxuan was very willing to come to his house to meet the elders.

Perhaps in her heart, this signified that her identity was further recognized.

Of course, Su Mu knew that he and Xuanxuan definitely wouldn’t have time in the next few days.

Although Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan were only groomsmen and bridesmaids at Bai Wanting’s wedding,

Su Mu still had to pick out a wedding gift for Allen.

Plus, Bai Wanting’s wedding wasn’t being held in Huadong City.

No matter what, Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan needed to arrive in Huangtong City ahead of time to familiarize themselves with the wedding procedures.

Therefore, what Su Mu had said was about returning from Huangtong City with Xuanxuan.

By then, Su Mu and Xuanxuan wouldn’t have anything else to do, and it would only be about coordinating with his parents’ schedules.

"No problem, after you and Xuanxuan come back, just pick a time and let Mom know," said Bai Xiuping.

"Son, bringing your girlfriend home is a big deal, and neither your father nor I would let even the biggest company business delay us from meeting a future daughter-in-law."

"Xiao Mu, you just set a time and inform Mom in advance," Bai Xiuping continued.

Bai Xiuping was overjoyed to hear Xiao Mu agree so readily to bring his girlfriend home.

The smile on her face never faded.

Although Bai Xiuping had already met Xuanxuan,

she felt that Xiao Mu bringing his girlfriend home had different significance.

It goes without saying that Bai Xiuping was feeling different as well.

Moreover, in a month’s time, Xiao Mu and Xuanxuan would be starting college.

Once the two of them started college, they would certainly have even less time.

So, Bai Xiuping also wanted to formally meet her son’s girlfriend before they headed off to college.

"Understood, Mom," Su Mu replied.

Regarding the glowing smile on his mother’s face, Su Mu truly found it a bit exaggerated.

Not to mention that Dad and Mom had actually already met Xuanxuan.

Even if Mom hadn’t met Xuanxuan before, Su Mu and Xuanxuan were just dating for now.

Su Mu really didn’t think his mother needed to be so excited.

"Grandpa, I’ll let you know in advance," Su Mu said.

Although the old man generally stayed in the castle, Su Mu felt that he still should inform Grandpa ahead of time.

It was a matter of respect for his grandfather.

"Alright."

The old man certainly wanted to see the Xuanxuan mentioned by his grandson.

The old man was already familiar with his grandson’s girlfriend’s name,

and deep down, he was eager to see Xuanxuan in person.

This was his grandson’s girlfriend, who might become his granddaughter-in-law in the future.

How could the old man not care?

The old man didn’t subscribe to notions of family background.

Besides, he was aware that the Jiang Family was considered wealthy in Huadong City.

But what the old man cared most about was the character of Xiao Mu’s girlfriend.

With a pair of eyes that had seen countless people, the old man would certainly have a clear understanding when the time came.

As long as Xiao Mu’s girlfriend had a good character, the old man wouldn’t have any objections.

It seemed that the old man had wanted to meet his grandson’s girlfriend for some time now.

When he heard Xiao Mu mention it, the old man’s response was indeed loud and strong.

"Dad, it looks like you’re quite eager to meet your granddaughter-in-law," said Su Ruizhi, unable to resist teasing the old man.

There was no helping it; the old man’s expression was so obvious.

He didn’t conceal it at all.

"Pick up on subtleties," Su Ruizhi didn’t seem to consider this saying at all.

The old man gave his son a profound look without mercy.

"It seems Xiao Mu is right, Ruizhi, there are some areas in which you really need to strengthen," the old man mused, seemingly considering some important matter, and not engaging with his son’s mention of wanting to see the granddaughter-in-law.

The old man’s ambiguous words left Su Ruizhi, who had just been looking very smug, to instantly change his expression.

Putting away the smile on his face, Su Ruizhi had to quell his arrogant demeanor.

"Dad, my apologies, I was too eager to see Xiao Mu’s girlfriend, and you’re just going along for the ride," he conceded.

Though the old man hadn’t specified in which areas he needed to improve,

thinking of the old man’s iron-fisted methods made Su Ruizhi’s scalp tingle.

Su Ruizhi remembered all too well how the old man had "trained" him when preparing him to be his successor,

and naturally, he didn’t wish to undergo that again.
