Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 520 - 519: Show Off

When the news about the fifth subway line was announced, the Su Family Group did not initially make a clear statement.

Jiang Maohua had called Mr. Fook of the Su Family immediately.

As a tycoon in the construction industry, Jiang Maohua naturally wanted to buy the plot of land held by the young master of the Su Family.

Jiang Maohua didn’t have the contact information of the young master of the Su Family, so the only thing he could think of was to call Mr. Fook of the Su Family.

If at that time Jiang Maohua had known that his daughter was dating the young master of the Su Family, he wouldn’t have needed to go such a long way around, asking Mr. Fook to convey his intentions of buying the plot of land in the heart of the fifth subway line controlled by the young master.

If Jiang Maohua had known that Xuanxuan was dating Su Mu, he would certainly have let Xuanxuan contact Su Mu directly.

However, Jiang Maohua later realized that no matter through whom he contacted Su Mu, the result would’ve been the same.

For Jiang Maohua understood as soon as he saw the Su Family Group making its move.

It wasn’t that the Su Family Group had no interest in the land around the fifth subway line.

The Su Family Group’s lack of immediate action at the beginning must have been them planning something.

Later, upon seeing the large-scale land acquisitions by the Su Family Group, Jiang Maohua knew that the call he made to Mr. Fook would not receive a response.

Su Mu was part of the Su Family; of course, he wouldn’t possibly hand over the most pivotal central plot of land to someone else.

Even if Su Mu had known that the person wanting to buy his land was his girlfriend’s father, it would not have been possible.

On this point, Jiang Maohua had no displeasure or complaints whatsoever.

Jiang Maohua certainly knew which was more important between his girlfriend’s father and his own father.

When Jiang Maohua later learned that Su Mu was his daughter’s boyfriend, his desire to meet Su Mu was actually no less than Bai Mingyun’s.

Bai Mingyu had never met Su Mu and felt that his eagerness to meet Su Mu was perfectly normal.

For Jiang Maohua, he had indeed seen Su Mu, but only from a distance.

There were so many people at the Su Family Group’s celebration banquet that day that Jiang Maohua had no chance to get a close look at Su Mu, let alone speak with him.

At that time, Jiang Maohua felt that he had no particular relationship with the young master of the Su Family, and to approach him rashly would seem rather abrupt.

Therefore, Jiang Maohua didn’t make any move.

But once he knew that Su Mu was his daughter’s boyfriend, the situation was completely different. freewёbnoνel.com

Jiang Maohua felt that his relationship with the young master of the Su Family should be more than just a little.

His daughter’s boyfriend—that was no small connection.

What a great twist of fate.

Jiang Maohua had even told his wife before, that any girl who could become the girlfriend of the young master of the Su Family was indeed blessed with good fortune from eight lifetimes.

Jiang Maohua did not expect that such great fortune would actually befall his own daughter.

In today’s popular terms, Jiang Xinxuan must have saved the galaxy in her past life to have caught Su Mu’s eye and become his girlfriend.

Su Mu was unaware that Xuanxuan’s parents wanted to meet him for these reasons.

So, naturally, Su Mu was very calm when meeting his girlfriend’s parents.

Of course, even if Su Mu had known these reasons, he would have remained just as calm.

In Su Mu’s view, he had done nothing to be ashamed of, so there was nothing embarrassing about meeting his girlfriend’s parents.

As for the things that had happened between him and Xuanxuan, Su Mu also thought they were quite normal.

They were both consenting adults, and it was natural for certain things to happen when a relationship became intense. Isn’t that a very normal thing?

Su Mu believed that Xuanxuan’s parents would understand.

If Su Mu couldn’t understand, he didn’t think it mattered.

After all, what had happened had happened, could Xuanxuan’s parents really ask him to give them an intact, flawless daughter?

Su Mu expressed that he was not a deity, nor could he accomplish everything.

Su Mu recalled that he hadn’t felt any nervousness when he went to meet Xuanxuan’s parents.

Now all he did was mention taking her to meet his grandfather and his own parents, and Xuanxuan became this nervous.

Indeed, Su Mu felt somewhat perplexed.

Hadn’t Xuanxuan already met two of the three big heads of his family, and yet she was still this anxious?

If Xuanxuan had never met his parents before, how nervous would she have been?

Su Mu really couldn’t imagine it.

"Of course I’m nervous," when I met your uncle and auntie last time, it was in such a rush."

"The last meeting wasn’t a formal introduction, and this time we’ll be adding grandfather to the mix, so naturally, I’m even more nervous."

Jiang Xinxuan remembered that Su Mu’s parents had been very kind the last time they saw her.

Especially Su Mu’s mother, who had even held Jiang Xinxuan’s hand and chatted for a bit.

As for Su Mu’s father, Jiang Xinxuan only had time to call him "Uncle" before he had to rush off.

Jiang Xinxuan’s impression of Su Mu’s father was not of a strict man, but beyond that, she couldn’t say much.

Now, the most important thing was Su Mu’s grandfather.

The Su family patriarch, who her own uncle revered as an idol, Jiang Xinxuan wondered if she could catch the old man’s eye.

Jiang Xinxuan worried about what she should do if she couldn’t gain Su Mu’s grandfather’s approval.

Although society was no longer feudal and young people’s marriages weren’t arranged by their parents and matchmakers,

deep down, Jiang Xinxuan naturally hoped to gain the approval of the three heads of the Su family.

To Jiang Xinxuan, this was a very important matter.

Even though Jiang Xinxuan was only dating Su Mu now, she didn’t dare be careless in the slightest.

For Jiang Xinxuan, marrying Su Mu was her ultimate life goal.

One could say that from the moment she first saw Su Mu, Jiang Xinxuan’s heart had completely fallen for him.

But at that time, Jiang Xinxuan didn’t know Su Mu’s true identity.

Jiang Xinxuan never imagined that Su Mu could have such a powerful background.

Back then, Jiang Xinxuan thought that it was good if Su Mu’s family conditions were ordinary.

At least in that case, the unattainable Su Mu would seem more attainable to her.

After all, aside from his family conditions, Su Mu really was an existence akin to a powerful figure.

Having always thought herself a top student, Jiang Xinxuan realized there was always someone better upon meeting Su Mu in high school.

Compared to Su Mu, Jiang Xinxuan, the academic star, was indeed far less impressive.

At that time, Jiang Xinxuan felt that her family background was the only thing she could be proud of.

Of course, Jiang Xinxuan wasn’t trying to show off in front of Su Mu.

Jiang Xinxuan was just relieved that Su Mu’s family conditions were quite ordinary.

If Su Mu had disclosed that he was the young master of the Su Corporation from the start, Jiang Xinxuan probably wouldn’t have dared to show any special interest in him.

A wealthy, handsome, and smart boy, Jiang Xinxuan would be accused of trying to climb the social ladder if he were too obvious about it.

Therefore, Jiang Xinxuan was very grateful for the traditions left by the Su Family’s ancestors.

Otherwise, Jiang Xinxuan really didn’t think he would have had the courage to express different emotions towards Su Mu during the three years of high school.

"What’s there to be nervous about, my grandpa and my parents just want to officially meet you."

"Especially my grandpa, who hasn’t met his grandson’s girlfriend yet; of course, he wants to see her before she goes off to college."

"Once we go to college, we’ll naturally have less time to come home, let alone bring girlfriends home."

"Xuanxuan, relax a bit. Look, when I went to meet your uncle and aunt at your place, I wasn’t nervous at all."

While comforting his girlfriend, Su Mu glanced at the navigation.

The navigation had just indicated that they were about to enter the highway, and Su Mu needed to check which direction he should take after getting on the highway, left or right.

Usually, after entering the highway, it divides into two directions, left and right.

Of course, the direction you take signifies the start of a different journey.

It could very well mean the difference between two opposite ends of the world.

This was something Su Mu certainly needed to pay attention to.

If he accidentally took the wrong direction, he would have to wait until the next highway exit to get off and start over.

The navigation showed that after entering the highway, he should drive to the left.

That is to say, the direction to Huangtong City was on the left.

After figuring this out, Su Mu didn’t need to keep staring at the navigation.

Su Mu really didn’t understand why Xuanxuan was so nervous.

She had already met his parents, and yet she was still so nervous.

If Xuanxuan had never met his parents before, how terrified would she be facing the three heavyweights of his family at once?

But in the three years of high school, the Xuanxuan that Su Mu remembered, although not tomboyish, always came across as a very calm girl.

Su Mu had never seen Xuanxuan this nervous before.

And this was just the nervousness of meeting the parents while dating. What would she be like when it came to discussing marriage?

What Su Mu didn’t know was that Jiang Xinxuan was so nervous because she cared too much for him.

Jiang Xinxuan always thought that she must make Su Mu’s grandparents and parents like her.

If the two truly reached the age of marriage, Jiang Xinxuan hoped that she and Su Mu’s marriage would not face opposition from his family.

They say the first impression is the most important.

This was Jiang Xinxuan’s first time meeting Su Mu’s grandfather.

It was also the first time she formally met Su Mu’s parents.

Naturally, Jiang Xinxuan wanted to show her best, most outstanding side to Su Mu’s elders.

If she could leave a good impression on Su Mu’s grandfather and parents,

Jiang Xinxuan felt it would be greatly beneficial for her and Su Mu’s future progress as well.

Jiang Xinxuan didn’t know that Su Mu was already comparing her performance with his own when he first met Jiang Xinxuan’s parents.

If Jiang Xinxuan had known, she surely would have told Su Mu.

Su Mu went to his own home, which was the moment Jiang Xinxuan’s parents had been eagerly awaiting.

Not to mention, concerning Su Mu, there’s simply no way Jiang Xinxuan’s parents would have any dissatisfaction.

They were too happy to have any time to be dissatisfied.

Therefore, there’s really no need for Su Mu to feel any psychological burden when visiting Jiang Xinxuan’s home.

In the eyes of Jiang Xinxuan’s parents, Su Mu’s family background, appearance, and achievements all scored full marks.

In their hearts, it was their daughter who had married up to Su Mu, so how could they possibly have any dissatisfaction with him?

Su Mu’s visit to Jiang Xinxuan’s house was purely to show his face and formally introduce himself to his girlfriend’s parents.

There were by no means any intentions of scrutiny from the elders.

So, Su Mu was of course very relaxed.

But Jiang Xinxuan was different.

Jiang Xinxuan had absolutely no confidence in what sort of impression Su Mu’s grandfather would have of her.

It would be strange for Jiang Xinxuan to feel at ease.

"Of course, you’re not nervous. My parents were already so satisfied with you even before they met you, how could you possibly be nervous?"

Jiang Xinxuan felt that Su Mu’s situation and the one she was about to face weren’t at all the same.

How could they possibly approach the problem with the same mindset?

"My parents were already so satisfied with you before they’d even met you?"

"Did my parents know you beforehand?"

Hearing his girlfriend say this, the only thing Su Mu could think of was this.

Before visiting his girlfriend’s home, Su Mu certainly didn’t know Xuanxuan’s parents, so how could there be any talk of Xuanxuan’s parents being very satisfied with him before his visit?

Therefore, Su Mu felt the only possibility was that while he didn’t know Xuanxuan’s parents, perhaps Xuanxuan’s parents had known him before he went to their house.

Of course, this ’knowing’, Su Mu thought, was merely that Xuanxuan’s parents had seen him.

In Su Mu’s memory, he had never had any direct contact with Xuanxuan’s parents.

Regarding when Xuanxuan’s parents might have seen him,

Su Mu guessed that Xuanxuan’s father must have seen him at the Su Family Group’s celebration banquet.

Because Su Mu remembered that Xuanxuan had mentioned her father would attend the Su Family Group’s banquet.

Unfortunately, since Xuanxuan resembled her mother more, Su Mu really hadn’t been able to identify which one was his girlfriend’s father that evening.

Su Mu might not have recognized his girlfriend’s father, but that didn’t stop Jiang Maohua from recognizing this Su Family’s young master who had caused a sensation at the banquet.

So, it was understandable to Su Mu that Xuanxuan’s father had met him and was very satisfied with him.

But when had Xuanxuan’s mother seen him?

That was something Su Mu truly couldn’t figure out.

Xuanxuan’s mother and Xuanxuan had both gone to Huangtong City during the Su Family’s banquet, and had not attended it at all.

At other public occasions, Su Mu also had not been present.

Not to mention any interaction with Xuanxuan’s mother.

Concerning his girlfriend’s statement, Su Mu was quite skeptical.
