Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 524 - 523: Basking in the Glory

Bai Mingqi and He Jingfen were now gathered around Su Mu, and both of their thoughts were focused on him.

Of course, they didn’t catch even a hint of the whispers from the relatives.

Bai Wanting and Allen knew Su Mu from way back in Huadong City.

The two were very tactful and didn’t push forward to compete with their own parents for the chance to talk to Su Mu.

Bai Wanting and Allen were still standing among the crowd at the entrance of the villa, naturally hearing all that the relatives were saying.

After all, if it was gossip, and not two people whispering secrets to each other, it was impossible to prevent others from overhearing.

But Bai Wanting didn’t find anything wrong with what the relatives were saying.

Bai Wanting felt that the wedding dress given to her by Director Bai of the Su Family conglomerate was extremely precious.

This was evident just by looking at the price of the wedding dress.

Besides, it had been personally designed by Ms. Wang Weiwei and was embellished with very, very precious diamonds.

It was impossible to say the wedding dress wasn’t valuable.

Bai Wanting, of course, would make a big impression because of this dress.

Now it wasn’t just because the dress was valuable; the most special thing about this wedding dress was that it was a gift from Director Bai of the Su Family.

This was not something just anyone could receive, and for the Bai Family, it was a matter of great pride.

So, Bai Wanting, far from being displeased, was actually very proud upon hearing the relatives’ comments.

She was simply lucky to have Xuanxuan as her cousin.

And this cousin Xuanxuan happened to be Su Mu’s girlfriend.

Through this chain effect, Bai Wanting naturally basked in the glow of her cousin.

As for Allen, standing beside Bai Wanting, he had long regarded Su Mu as his idol.

Hearing everyone adoring his idol and his idol’s mother so much, Allen felt even more proud.

It was as if the halo of Su Mu could shine upon Allen as well.

Immediately, Allen stood up straighter, his back even more erect.

The proud smile on his face was in no way concealed.

"It’s a small matter; you don’t need to worry about it, Aunt," Su Mu said.

Having addressed Bai Mingqi as "Uncle," Su Mu felt it wouldn’t be fair to treat Xuanxuan’s aunt differently.

He might as well call her "Aunt" outright.

Su Mu remembered his mother telling him when he was a child.

According to the customs of his mother’s hometown, for men who were not related to his mother and who were of the same generation as Bai Xiuping, Su Mu should also address them as "Uncle."

Consequently, the wives of those men would naturally be addressed as "Aunt" by Su Mu.

So, even those who really had no relation could be called "Uncle" or "Aunt."

Now, when it came to his girlfriend’s own uncle and aunt, Su Mu naturally called them so without hesitation.

Regarding the wedding dress his mother had given to Bai Wanting, Su Mu said it was really just a small matter and didn’t need to be mentioned again and again.

Of course, since this was Xuanxuan’s aunt expressing her gratitude for the first time, he could understand that.

"Mingyun, come here, come here, Su Mu just called me ’Auntie’."

"Mingyun, Su Mu really is a good kid, Xuanxuan has such good taste."

Upon hearing Su Mu’s "Auntie," He Jingfen was suddenly more excited than her own husband.

He Jingfen felt that even if her husband had agreed to their daughter’s marriage to Allen, and Allen had changed his address to "Mom," her heart would not have been as thrilled as it was upon hearing Su Mu’s "Auntie."

As if she wanted to share this great news with everyone, He Jingfen quickly called Bai Mingyun over.

He Jingfen knew that at most she could only be Su Mu’s "Auntie."

But Bai Mingyun could very well become Su Mu’s mother-in-law in the future.

Of course, He Jingfen’s joy had to be shared with Bai Mingyun.

If Bai Mingyun ended up not becoming Su Mu’s mother-in-law, then He Jingfen couldn’t expect to hear Su Mu calling her "Auntie" anymore.

Without the relationship through Xuanxuan, He Jingfen and her husband Bai Mingqi would be no different from strangers to Su Mu.

This was something not only He Jingfen was clear about in her heart, but Bai Mingqi understood very well, too.

Seeing how Xuanxuan’s aunt reacted so exaggeratedly, Su Mu also felt a bit of helplessness in his heart.

Isn’t it just a title?

Why are Xuanxuan’s uncle and aunt both acting so exaggeratedly?

Su Mu felt he was just politely addressing an elder, so why did such a small matter become such a big deal to Xuanxuan’s uncle and aunt?

Since Xuanxuan’s aunt called for Xuanxuan’s mom, of course, Su Mu didn’t need to carry on the conversation anymore.

Maybe women’s thinking is harder to understand.

Of course, Su Mu knew his own mom definitely wouldn’t have the same attitude if she were in such a situation.

"Brother, sister-in-law, Su Mu must be tired from driving all the way from Huadong City; let’s not keep standing here talking," Bai Mingyun said.

Bai Mingyun, of course, knew the reason why his brother and sister-in-law were so excited.

Su Mu is the young master of the Su Family conglomerate, receiving a "Uncle" or "Auntie" from him adds so much prestige to one’s face.

Honestly, Bai Mingyun also wanted Su Mu to call her "Mom."

But Bai Mingyun knew that her current wish was utterly impossible.

Su Mu and Xuanxuan were only dating; how could he possibly call his girlfriend’s mom "Mom"?

Bai Mingyun knew that Su Mu giving the courtesy of calling her brother and sister-in-law "Uncle" and "Auntie" was already a great honor.

Should she ask for anything excessive, not to say Su Mu wouldn’t agree, but Bai Mingyun wouldn’t be able to bring herself to ask, either.

If because of her own reasons, she affected the relationship between Su Mu and Xuanxuan,

Bai Mingyun knew, not only would Xuanxuan not forgive her, but Bai Mingyun would despise herself, too.

Being named by her sister-in-law, Bai Mingyun, with a smiling face, stepped forward.

There was no way round it; with her brother and sister-in-law being so excited, Bai Mingyun didn’t want to steal their thunder at that moment.

Anyway, Bai Mingyun was confident in her heart; she couldn’t possibly be overlooked.

Even if everyone came to Huangtong City just for Bai Wanting’s wedding,

at the end of the day, the real protagonist had now become Su Mu.

With Su Mu as the protagonist, his girlfriend, who was Bai Mingyun’s daughter, naturally became the leading lady.

Bai Mingyun certainly knew that as the mother of the leading lady, there was no way she would be overlooked by everyone.

However, at the end of the day, Bai Mingyun truly cherished her niece.

Bai Mingyun wasn’t thinking about showing off at this moment either.

Bai Mingyun knew if Su Mu really could keep dating Xuanxuan and they ended up getting married, other people’s envy towards her would last a lifetime.

What was there for Bai Mingyun to hurry about?

Bai Mingyun also didn’t join in with her elder sister-in-law in praising Su Mu.

When it came to praising Su Mu, Bai Mingyun sincerely felt that her brother and sister-in-law’s words were too bland.

Of course, Bai Mingyun also knew they were too excited, unable to think of the right words to compliment Su Mu.

"Yes, yes, Mingyun is more thoughtful, look at me getting so excited, I even forgot about that."

Upon hearing what his younger sister said, Bai Mingqi slapped his forehead, finally realizing this point as well.

Bai Mingqi found his own mind was really short-circuiting, having let Su Mu stand at the entrance of his villa for so long.

One must know, it was summer now and close to noon at that.

Although today’s weather was decent and not blazingly sunny,

Bai Mingqi felt it was an oversight on his part to let the young master of the Su Family stand at his doorstep for so long.

Internally, Bai Mingqi cursed himself, wondering why he couldn’t just perform well in front of Su Mu.

Bai Mingqi felt his current behavior would certainly leave a bad impression on Su Mu.

Thinking that, Bai Mingqi became anxious and sweat began to form on his forehead.

"Su Mu, quick, quick, please come inside. Xuanxuan, attend to Su Mu will you."

It was as if Bai Mingqi finally noticed the presence of his niece Jiang Xinxuan, asking her to help him welcome Su Mu inside.

Mainly, Bai Mingqi wanted to cover up his abnormal behavior today.

There was no helping it, out of the crowd, Bai Mingqi knew only his niece Jiang Xinxuan was most familiar with Su Mu.

They were a couple after all, how could there be anyone else more familiar with Su Mu than Xuanxuan?

Of course, Bai Mingqi could only entrust this most honorable task to his niece.

"Xuanxuan, go inside with Su Mu quickly. Your uncle has been waiting after preparing for a long time, just for Su Mu’s arrival."

Bai Mingyun also called to her daughter and Su Mu to head towards the Bai Family’s villa entrance.

"Mu, thank you for really coming to be my best man."

Watching Su Mu head towards the villa entrance, Allen finally found the chance to speak to his idol.

Although Allen was a foreigner, he still had some perceptiveness.

The situation just now informed Allen that his future parents-in-law were extremely enthusiastic about Su Mu.

Allen knew he was definitely not suited to come forward and join in the bustling excitement.

Even though Allen was very eager to greet Su Mu.

But in the face of reality, Allen felt it was better not to disturb his future parents-in-law.

Otherwise, Allen really worried that his future father-in-law might have second thoughts about his marriage to Bai Wanting.

In fact, Allen was really overthinking this time.

If Allen really were to step forward, it certainly would have provoked some displeasure from Bai Mingqi.

Because Bai Mingqi would have felt that Allen was drawing Su Mu’s attention.

But to say that Bai Mingqi would have changed his mind about Bai Wanting’s marriage to Allen, that was simply impossible.

After all, Su Mu, as the best man, had already arrived in Huangtong City, at the Bai Family’s place.

If Bai Mingqi were to change his mind about the marriage, then who would Su Mu be the best man for on this trip to Huangtong City?

Wouldn’t that be making a joke out of Su Mu?

Of course, Bai Mingqi would never do such a thing.

"Allen, let me congratulate you here."

Upon seeing Allen, Su Mu greeted him as if he were an old friend, engaging in a friendly conversation.

Last time, in Huadong City, Bai Mingqi had not yet agreed to Bai Wanting’s marriage to Allen.

So even though Allen and Bai Wanting had taken their wedding photos then, Su Mu had not offered congratulations.

Su Mu felt that it was somewhat inappropriate to congratulate someone when the marriage was not yet certain.

Of course, Bai Mingqi had long since given his approval now.

The Bai Family was also busily preparing for the wedding of Allen and Bai Wanting. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Even Su Mu had come to Huangtong City for the upcoming wedding of Bai Wanting and Allen.

So, at this time, it was very appropriate for Su Mu to offer his congratulations to Allen.

"Look, the young master of the Su Family seems very familiar with Mingqi’s son-in-law."

"Yes, it seems that Mingqi’s son-in-law must have known the young master of the Su Family for a long time, but it seems that Mingqi is meeting this young master for the first time."

"I think the relationship between Mingqi’s son-in-law and the young master of the Su Family seems to be more than just familiarity? From the way they are, I feel the relationship between Mingqi’s son-in-law and the young master of the Su Family is very good."

"No wonder Mingqi initially did not approve of Wanting’s marriage to her foreign boyfriend, but within a few days, not only did Mingqi relent, he also actively started preparing for Wanting’s wedding to her foreign son-in-law."

"I guess it’s also because of the young master of the Su Family. Probably Mingqi initially did not know his foreign son-in-law knew the young master of the Su Family, not just knew him, but they also had a good relationship."

"Later when Mingqi found out his son-in-law had a good relationship with the young master of the Su Family, Mingqi must have also come around."

"Being friends with the young master of the Su Family would indeed qualify someone to be Mingqi’s son-in-law."

"Your analysis makes sense. It seems I’ve been right to go to the Bai Family every day. It turns out that the one truly familiar with the young master of the Su Family in the Bai Family isn’t Mingqi, but this foreign son-in-law."

"Looks like you’ve found the right person to butter up, but Allen is a foreigner. What if he doesn’t understand your flattery, and you end up ’barking up the wrong tree’ so to speak?"

"Go on, is that any way to curse me?"

"Hehehe..."

"Hehehe..."

...

A few people nearby overheard this conversation and couldn’t help but laugh softly.

"What’s so funny? Isn’t it true that you all come to Mingqi’s house every day with your own little schemes?"

Being laughed at to one’s face, while the laughter isn’t necessarily mocking, the person still felt somewhat embarrassed.

They glared at each other, not caring about the familial relationships between them at this moment.

After all, face had to be saved somehow.
