Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 519 - 518: Prominent Figures

"Xuanxuan, do you look like a wife who’s anxious to meet her in-laws?"

"Logically speaking, you’ve already met my dad and mom, so why are you still so eager?"

Seeing his girlfriend’s nervous expression, Su Mu couldn’t help but tease her.

They hadn’t hit the highway yet, and it would take about two hours to reach Huangtong City.

Even if Su Mu’s driving skills were great, he still had to comply with the speed limit on the highway.

Su Mu surely couldn’t make the Ferrari fly, could he?

So, with a long road ahead and nothing to do, it would really be boring.

Since Su Mu was driving, the only thing he could do was to find something to do with his mouth, teasing his girlfriend.

Although to Su Mu it was a very simple topic, why did Xuanxuan react so nervously?

Su Mu just smiled, and Xuanxuan started imagining all sorts of things on her own.

Su Mu felt that if he didn’t tease Xuanxuan, he would be letting down her anxious expression.

"What wife, in-laws, I haven’t even married you yet."

The heart of the matter hit, Jiang Xinxuan’s face turned red.

Truthfully, Jiang Xinxuan really felt like a little wife going to see Su Mu’s elders.

But since Su Mu never mentioned marrying her, Jiang Xinxuan couldn’t just admit that he had hit the mark, right?

Jiang Xinxuan also knew that they hadn’t even gone to college yet, so marriage was definitely not on the table.

Besides, the two of them had known each other for three years.

But they had only been in an official relationship for about a month, so marriage really seemed unlikely.

Jiang Xinxuan, of course, understood that Su Mu visiting her parents at her house was already giving her parents a lot of face.

If Su Mu had refused at that time, Jiang Xinxuan couldn’t have forced him.

Now Su Mu mentioned taking her to see his grandfather.

Though Jiang Xinxuan was utterly willing in her heart,

if Su Mu was only joking, Jiang Xinxuan certainly couldn’t force him to take her home.

This kind of thing ultimately depended on Su Mu’s decision; Jiang Xinxuan’s eagerness was useless.

Now, Jiang Xinxuan could only pout, feeling that Su Mu shouldn’t have said that.

"Are you telling me you’re not mentally prepared to see my grandfather and officially meet my dad and mom at my house?"

"That’s a pity, my mom had specifically told me to bring my girlfriend home to see Elder Su."

"It seems after this trip, I’ll have to explain to Elder Su and tell him that my girlfriend is too shy and not ready yet,"

"I’ll have to ask him to wait a bit longer."

"This ’a bit longer’ might be after we graduate from college."

Su Mu actually saw that Xuanxuan really wanted to meet his grandfather and his parents.

But seeing Xuanxuan’s shy demeanor, coupled with her earlier misunderstanding of his intention,

Su Mu just went along with it.

As he spoke, he also shook his head with a feigned expression of regret, as if he really didn’t want to pressure Jiang Xinxuan, but had no choice but to go home and explain to Elder Su.

"Su Mu, are you serious? Are your mom and dad and grandfather really willing to meet me?"

Jiang Xinxuan had originally braced herself, thinking this was Su Mu’s idea of a joke.

But now, seeing Su Mu say it this way, Jiang Xinxuan felt hope reignite in her heart.

With Su Mu talking like that, Jiang Xinxuan believed there was a high degree of truth to his words.

After all, they had been classmates for three years, and Jiang Xinxuan was very attentive to Su Mu, so naturally, she knew quite a lot about him.

Jiang Xinxuan thought that if Su Mu were teasing her, he probably wouldn’t have said those things.

There is a limit to teasing, and the Su Mu in Jiang Xinxuan’s eyes wasn’t someone who lacked measure.

"Of course, it’s true. Could I possibly joke about such a thing with you?"

"Besides, I couldn’t fake my mom’s imperial decree, could I?"

At this moment, Su Mu put aside his smile and showed a serious face, affirming the truth of his words.

Joy filled Jiang Xinxuan’s heart. So did Su Mu’s mom really want to invite her over to their house?

And this time it wasn’t just about meeting Su Mu’s mom and dad, but also his grandfather.

Regarding Elder Su, Su Mu’s grandfather, Jiang Xinxuan had never had the chance to meet him in person.

Jiang Xinxuan knew that Elder Su was a person of great importance simply from listening to her own mom, dad, and uncle talking about him.

Now that Su Mu was taking her to meet his grandfather, Jiang Xinxuan’s heart was filled with joy and a slight tinge of fear.

What if she failed to impress Su Mu’s grandfather and he didn’t approve of her as Su Mu’s girlfriend, what should she do then?

Jiang Xinxuan was usually very confident in herself.

But the moment anything involved Su Mu, all of Jiang Xinxuan’s usual confidence seemed to vanish into thin air.

"Su Mu, what if your grandfather doesn’t like me?"

There was no helping it; right now, Su Mu was the only person Jiang Xinxuan knew who understood Elder Su.

In fact, not many people around Jiang Xinxuan had the chance to understand Elder Su.

Especially concerning Elder Su’s expectations for his future granddaughter-in-law, Jiang Xinxuan was even less likely to learn this from others.

Jiang Xinxuan hadn’t explicitly asked Su Mu about Elder Su’s expectations for his future granddaughter-in-law.

Jiang Xinxuan knew that it wasn’t the right time to ask Su Mu such questions.

Otherwise, it would give Su Mu the impression that she had already set her sights on him the moment they started dating.

Jiang Xinxuan feared that if Su Mu knew what she was really thinking, he might feel pressured.

If these concerns were to affect her relationship with Su Mu, it would undoubtedly be an unacceptable outcome for Jiang Xinxuan.

Now, the only thing Jiang Xinxuan could ask Su Mu was whether the old master might not like her.

After all, she was going to meet Elder Su, so it seemed justifiable for her to ask.

"My grandfather might seem very stern, but he is actually very kind to the younger generation."

Seeing his girlfriend’s increasingly worried expression, Su Mu stopped teasing Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan had made herself very clear; she was definitely willing to meet his grandfather and parents.

In fact, even if Xuanxuan hadn’t said it, from her excited reaction earlier, Su Mu understood she was one hundred percent willing.

What Su Mu didn’t know was how long Jiang Xinxuan had been waiting for Su Mu to say he would take her home to meet the Su Family elders.

How could Jiang Xinxuan possibly have any reluctance?

"Xuanxuan, it’s just meeting the elders, there’s no need for you to be so nervous," freēwēbnovel.com

Su Mu felt Xuanxuan’s nervousness was really unnecessary.

When Xuanxuan mentioned her parents wanted to invite him over, hadn’t Su Mu readily agreed?

Moreover, from the time Su Mu agreed to visit his girlfriend’s home to the moment he actually arrived and met Xuanxuan’s parents, Su Mu didn’t feel even a hint of nervousness.

As far as Su Mu was concerned, this was perfectly normal.

He was dating Xuanxuan, and it made sense that her parents would want to meet their daughter’s boyfriend.

After all, Xuanxuan had come home so late that night, looking exhausted.

Su Mu knew that Xuanxuan’s parents must have guessed something, so they were eager to see the boy who had "won" their daughter.

What Su Mu didn’t realize was that the biggest reason Xuanxuan’s parents were so anxious to meet him was because of the name "Su Mu."

Especially Bai Mingyun.

For Bai Mingyun, ever since the news about Huadong City’s Metro Line 5 was confirmed, she had frequently heard her husband mention the name "Su Mu."

Bai Mingyun had even regretted not having the chance to see for herself what this young master of the Su Family, so highly praised by her husband, looked like.

According to her husband, Su Mu was not only more handsome than a celebrity, but his business acumen was also incomparable.

Bai Mingyun thought it only natural for Su Mu to be business-savvy, being a child of the Su Family.

After all, Elder Su and Su Ruizhi were no ordinary figures.

Even by inheritance, Su Mu wouldn’t fall short.

And regarding Su Mu’s looks.

Considering the appearance of the couple, Su Ruizhi and Bai Xiuping, Bai Mingyun believed it would be normal for Su Mu to be a handsome man.

But according to her husband, Su Mu was many times more handsome than a celebrity.

Jiang Maohua had even said that any girl who could become Su Mu’s girlfriend or further, become his wife, would be someone with multiple lifetimes of good fortune.

At that time, Bai Mingyun couldn’t help but ask a question in disbelief, wondering if, even putting aside family conditions and just considering looks, Xuanxuan would be seen as less than Su Mu?

In Bai Mingyun’s eyes, her daughter’s beauty was top-notch.

And Bai Mingyun wasn’t the only one who thought so.

Whoever met Jiang Xinxuan didn’t praise her good looks?

This was a fact, and therefore Bai Mingyun had every right to be confident.

What Bai Mingyun didn’t expect was that her husband would give an affirmative answer without any hesitation.

Bai Mingyun felt indignant, seeing her husband so outwardly biased.

So, before knowing that Su Mu was her daughter’s boyfriend, Bai Mingyun had been very curious to meet this mysterious young master of the Su Family.

Upon learning about the relationship between Su Mu and Xuanxuan, how could Bai Mingyun let go of such a great opportunity?

Of course, she wanted her daughter to bring Su Mu home sooner rather than later.

So, Su Mu thought the reason for Xuanxuan’s parents’ urgency to meet him was because he had been with Xuanxuan intimately.

In fact, that was not the case at all.

If it were about being intimate, with Bai Wanting as such a clear example before them, Bai Mingyun and Jiang Maohua weren’t actually that hard to persuade.

After all, the society is now very open, Jiang Xinxuan has come of age, and besides, it’s Su Mu who has taken everything from Jiang Xinxuan.

What is there to say between Bai Mingyun and Jiang Maohua?

Bai Mingyun just wanted to use this opportunity to meet Su Mu.

Of course, Jiang Maohua also wanted to meet the boyfriend of his girlfriend.

After the news of the Metro Line 5 was announced, Jiang Maohua was the first to make a call to Mr. Fook of the Su Family.

Not for anything else, just because the young master of the Su Family had bought the most central piece of land of Metro Line 5.

What surprised Jiang Maohua was that this young master of the Su Family had bought this most central piece of land just a few days before the specific news of Metro Line 5 was released.

Of course, Su Mu couldn’t possibly have gotten any insider information, of which Jiang Maohua was still sure.

Not to mention that if such news was leaked in advance, it would be a very serious issue.

Such an occurrence is fundamentally impossible.

Besides, if Su Mu could have obtained the news in advance, the Su Family’s group wouldn’t have to compete with a bunch of companies for those plots of land after the announcement of Metro Line 5.

If Su Mu had known the news in advance, wouldn’t the Su Family’s group have taken action long ago?

In that case, not only would the Su Family’s group not need to compete with a bunch of companies, but they would also save a considerable amount of money.

After all, the price of land in that area before and after the announcement of Metro Line 5 could by no means be compared.

As for Su Mu’s purchase of the land, Jiang Maohua knew very well it was purely due to Su Mu’s own good investment foresight.

Jiang Maohua had seen this young master at the Su Family’s celebratory banquet.

Jiang Maohua remembered there were a few big shots who, on account of being elders, discussed the Su Family’s young master’s grand purchase of the land.

Of course, in the eyes of those big shots at the time, the actions of the Su Family’s young master were certainly deemed a waste of money.

Yet the next day, when the government announced the news of Metro Line 5, one wonders if those big shots’ faces felt scaldingly hot.

That evening, Jiang Maohua did not join those people in discussions about the Su Family’s young master’s land purchase.

In Jiang Maohua’s view, it was a private affair of the Su Family.

Even if the Su Family’s young master was making blind investments with so much money, it was none of other people’s business.

This could only show that the Su Family was wealthy.

Wealthy enough to casually throw around billions for their child to play with.

As for anything else, others really couldn’t say much.

Although Jiang Maohua was also a big shot in the construction industry, he knew his place in front of the Su Family.

Jiang Maohua, who understood his own status, of course wouldn’t say more than necessary.

At the Su Family’s celebratory banquet, Jiang Maohua’s impression of Su Mu was that he was very handsome.

He also looked to be a man of great temperament.

As for the rest, Jiang Maohua had no opportunity to interact closely with the young master of the Su Family.

Naturally, he couldn’t form any further opinion.

Jiang Maohua just felt that the young master of the Su Family didn’t seem to be the prodigal type.

However, the next day Jiang Maohua knew that this young master of the Su Family was not only not a wastrel but also an extremely business-savvy young man.
