Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 392 - 391: Going Separate Ways
Chapter 392: Chapter 391: Going Separate Ways
In Four Eyes’ understanding, shouldn’t He Qiya be paying attention to Su Mu’s every move all the time?
How come she hasn’t shown any reaction while he and Su Mu have been talking for so long?
Or is it that He Qiya is simply not interested in his affairs?
Is that why she didn’t get out of the car when she saw him return?
But that doesn’t make sense.
No matter how you look at it, Four Eyes thought his presence should have provided He Qiya with a good opportunity to interact more with Su Mu, right?
In just half a day, Four Eyes was already very clear about He Qiya’s feelings for Su Mu.
That’s why he found it so strange that He Qiya hadn’t shown any response during that half-day.
The thing is, at this moment, He Qiya was totally preoccupied with choosing a college.
For He Qiya, the most pressing matter at hand was to be in the same city as Su Mu for university.
At first, while He Qiya was looking at her phone, she would lift her head and glance over at Su Mu every so often.
But after a few times, He Qiya realized that Su Mu had not looked her way even once.
She knew Su Mu wouldn’t chat with her just because he was bored.
He Qiya knew that today, she had no chance of sitting in the passenger seat of Su Mu’s car.
With her hopes dashed, He Qiya’s entire attention was now on her phone.
Absorbed in a conversation that had taken place in the parking lot, where Four Eyes had been chatting with Su Mu for a while,
He Qiya genuinely hadn’t noticed at all.
So, it wasn’t that He Qiya wasn’t interested in what happened to Four Eyes.
After all, if it was anything to do with Su Mu, He Qiya was invariably interested.
It’s just that the soundproofing in the Ferrari was really good.
Plus, He Qiya was also focusing her attention on searching for colleges.
As for the noise outside the car, He Qiya really hadn’t noticed a thing.
He Qiya in this state seemed almost oblivious to the outside world.
"You go tell He Qiya,"
Because of Four Eyes’ comment, Su Mu remembered He Qiya, his companion, as well.
Glancing at He Qiya, whose top of the head was all he could see, Su Mu simply asked Four Eyes to go greet her.
Since Four Eyes hadn’t returned to his own car anyway, Su Mu thought it was more convenient for him to do so.
Besides, it was just a matter of saying hello to He Qiya, and all three of them had come by their own cars and would leave the same way.
Su Mu didn’t see the need to get out of the car especially to greet He Qiya.
They were all friends, after all, and it’s better to be casual.
"Okay."
Four Eyes nodded. After all, today’s events involved Su Mu and He Qiya helping him out.
Four Eyes knew it was normal for him to go and greet He Qiya.
Of course, Four Eyes also knew that He Qiya would probably prefer the person greeting her to be Su Mu.
Unfortunately, there was no helping it, as the leading man Su Mu didn’t want to do that.
So, Four Eyes naturally obeyed his friend’s request.
Watching Four Eyes walk toward He Qiya’s red Ferrari, Su Mu didn’t rush to release the handbrake.
Because Su Mu’s car hadn’t been turned off.
Su Mu decided to wait until Four Eyes had spoken to He Qiya before leaving Yude High School’s parking lot together.
No matter whether He Qiya was going straight home afterward or somewhere else.
Su Mu felt it was best if the three of them, who had entered Yude High School together, left together as well.
As Four Eyes approached He Qiya’s red Ferrari, he realized he might have overthought things.
It seemed He Qiya wasn’t specifically ignoring him; it was just that her attention was truly fixated on her phone in her hand.
Four Eyes stood by He Qiya’s cockpit for a few minutes at the beginning.
Four Eyes thought to himself that with his considerable size, perhaps He Qiya might notice his presence?
Unfortunately, Four Eyes was destined to be disappointed.
Even though Four Eyes was indeed not small in stature, he still failed to attract He Qiya’s attention.
With no other choice, Four Eyes resorted to the same method.
"Knock knock"
He knocked twice on the glass of the red Ferrari’s cockpit.
The sound was not very loud, but it was much more effective than just standing there.
He Qiya shifted her gaze from her phone almost immediately.
Looking up, her eyes, full of anticipation upon seeing the person standing by her cockpit, dimmed instantly.
He Qiya thought it was Su Mu knocking on her car window.
Because it never occurred to He Qiya that Four Eyes had already returned to the parking lot.
Seeing it wasn’t the person she had been thinking of, He Qiya rolled down her window much slower.
"He Qiya, I’ve already settled things with Li Minli, and I really want to thank you this time."
Knowing that He Qiya wouldn’t be too concerned about his matters, Four Eyes didn’t elaborate further.
But he still needed to express his gratitude.
Even though Four Eyes knew clearly that He Qiya helped only because of Su Mu, he still appreciated her assistance.
But regardless, He Qiya did genuinely lend a hand.
If it weren’t for He Qiya’s help today, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.
Four Eyes’s thank you came from the heart.
"No need to thank me, have you spoken to Su Mu?"
He Qiya glanced over Four Eyes’s rather large figure to check on Su Mu.
However, due to the angle, He Qiya couldn’t see anything.
Not even a glimpse of Su Mu’s face, which left He Qiya feeling a bit sullen.
"I’ve spoken to him, Su Mu said he would go straight home later."
"I just came to let you know."
"I’ll also go straight home later, do you have anything to do this afternoon?"
"I’ve already taken up a lot of your time today. If you’re busy, I won’t disturb you."
Four Eyes didn’t feel comfortable asking He Qiya directly if she planned to go straight home next.
Four Eyes felt that with the level of familiarity he had with He Qiya, it didn’t seem right to ask so bluntly.
It was evident that Four Eyes was getting better at gauging the appropriate distance when interacting with girls.
"Is Su Mu going straight home?"
He Qiya didn’t care about where Four Eyes planned to go next.
For He Qiya, Su Mu’s subsequent plans were of utmost importance.
He Qiya had been thinking, if Su Mu planned to go to the fitness club in the afternoon, she could go along as well.
After returning home yesterday, He Qiya had already prepared a change of clothes for the gym in her car.
All so she could join Su Mu for a gym session at any time.
During lunch, Four Eyes was also constantly discussing fitness matters with Su Mu.
He Qiya thought Su Mu might decide to take Four Eyes for a session in the afternoon.
If so, it would be the perfect chance for her to join them, right?
Now, hearing Four Eyes’s words, He Qiya realized all her preparation was for naught.
So Su Mu intended to go straight back to the castle.
Looking at Four Eyes, there seemed to be no sign that he was planning to work out.
He Qiya knew she could only go home as well.
In Four Eyes’ perception, shouldn’t He Qiya be constantly paying attention to every move Su Mu made?
Why had it been such a long time since he and Su Mu had been talking, yet He Qiya showed no sign of reaction?
Or could it be that He Qiya had no interest in his affairs at all?
So she didn’t get out of the car when she saw him return?
But that didn’t make sense.
In any case, Four Eyes felt that his presence should have provided He Qiya with a good opportunity to interact more with Su Mu.
In just half a day, Four Eyes had become very clear about He Qiya’s feelings for Su Mu.
Therefore, Four Eyes found it very strange that He Qiya had not shown any reaction at all for half a day.
It’s just that at this time, He Qiya had put all her thoughts into choosing a university.
For He Qiya, the most important thing right now was to attend the same university in the same city as Su Mu.
At first, He Qiya would look up from her phone at intervals to glance towards Su Mu.
However, after a few times, He Qiya realized that Su Mu hadn’t looked her way even once.
She knew Su Mu wouldn’t feel bored and seek her out for a chat.
He Qiya knew that she wouldn’t be able to sit in the passenger seat of Su Mu’s car today.
Having given up on that idea, He Qiya then focused all her attention on her phone.
Regarding Four Eyes returning to the parking lot and having a conversation with Su Mu for a while,
He Qiya really hadn’t noticed at all.
So it wasn’t that He Qiya was uninterested in Four Eyes’ affairs.
After all, if it was something related to Su Mu, He Qiya was very interested.
It could only be said that the sound insulation of the Ferrari was really good.
Plus, He Qiya was now focused on searching for universities.
She truly didn’t notice any noise from outside the car.
He Qiya seemed to take an ’out of sight, out of mind’ approach to her surroundings.
"You should go and tell He Qiya,"
Remembering the existence of his companion He Qiya due to Four Eyes’ words, Su Mu told Four Eyes to go and greet He Qiya.
Seeing only the top of He Qiya’s head, Su Mu felt it more convenient for Four Eyes, who hadn’t returned to his car, to do the greeting.
Moreover, it was just a matter of saying hello. All three of them had driven here on their own and, of course, would drive back on their own as well.
Su Mu didn’t see the need to go out of his way to get out of the car and say something to He Qiya.
They were all friends, after all. It was better to keep things casual.
"Okay."
Four Eyes nodded. After all, today’s favor had been for Su Mu and He Qiya to help himself.
Four Eyes knew it was normal for him to greet He Qiya.
Of course, Four Eyes also knew that, in her heart, He Qiya probably hoped the person greeting her would be Su Mu.
Too bad, there was no help for it; male lead Su Mu didn’t want to do such things.
So Four Eyes naturally followed his good friend’s instructions.
Watching Four Eyes walk towards He Qiya’s red Ferrari, Su Mu was in no rush to release the handbrake.
As Su Mu’s car had been running all this time,
he decided to wait until Four Eyes had spoken with He Qiya before they left the Yude High School parking lot together.
No matter whether He Qiya was going straight home afterward or to some other place,
Su Mu thought it would be nice for the three of them to enter and leave Yude High School together.
When Four Eyes approached He Qiya’s red Ferrari, he realized he might have overthought things.
It seemed He Qiya wasn’t targeting him; her attention was indeed all on the phone in her hand.
Initially, Four Eyes stood next to He Qiya’s driver-side door for a few minutes.
Four Eyes wondered if his sizable figure might make He Qiya notice his existence.
Unfortunately, Four Eyes was destined to be disappointed.
Even though Four Eyes really wasn’t small, he still failed to catch He Qiya’s attention.
With no other option, Four Eyes resorted to the same method.
"Thud thud"
He knocked twice on the glass of the driver’s cabin of the red Ferrari.
The sound wasn’t very loud, but it was much more effective than Four Eyes standing by idly.
He Qiya shifted her gaze away from her phone immediately.
Looking up, her eyes filled with anticipation dimmed when she saw clearly who was standing next to her driver’s cabin.
He Qiya had thought it was Su Mu knocking on her car window.
Because He Qiya hadn’t even considered that Four Eyes had returned to the parking lot.
Seeing that it wasn’t the person she had in mind, He Qiya slowed down the rolling down of her car window considerably.
"He Qiya, I’ve already settled things with Li Minli, I really want to thank you this time."
Knowing that He Qiya wouldn’t pay much attention to his affairs, Four Eyes didn’t bother with further explanation.
But he still needed to express his gratitude.
Even though Four Eyes was clear in his heart that He Qiya had helped him because of Su Mu, he still knew that He Qiya had genuinely lent him a hand.
If it weren’t for He Qiya’s help today, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.
Four Eyes meant his thank you from the bottom of his heart.
"No need to thank me, have you talked to Su Mu?"
He Qiya glanced at Su Mu through Four Eyes’ somewhat large frame.
But, because of her angle of view, He Qiya couldn’t see anything.
Not seeing Su Mu’s face made He Qiya feel a bit dejected.
"I’ve spoken to him, Su Mu said he’s going straight home after this."
"I just came to let you know."
"I’ll also head home directly afterwards. Do you have anything to do this afternoon?"
"I’ve already taken up much of your time today, I won’t bother you if you’re busy."
Four Eyes didn’t feel right asking He Qiya directly if she was planning to head home next.
Four Eyes felt that, given his familiarity with He Qiya, he shouldn’t ask so directly.
You could tell that Four Eyes was becoming more adept at interacting with girls.
"Is Su Mu going straight home?"
He Qiya didn’t care where Four Eyes was planning to go next.
For He Qiya, Su Mu’s plans were of utmost importance.
He Qiya had hoped that if Su Mu was going to the fitness club that afternoon, she could conveniently join him.
After going back the previous day, He Qiya had already prepared workout clothes and other necessities in her car.
She did all this to be ready to join Su Mu for a workout at any time.
Four Eyes had been chatting with Su Mu about fitness during lunch as well.
He Qiya thought that Su Mu might decide to take Four Eyes for a session that afternoon.
In that case, couldn’t she just tag along?
Now hearing what Four Eyes said, He Qiya realized her preparations had been in vain.
It meant Su Mu was planning to head straight for the castle.
From the looks of it, Four Eyes wasn’t planning on going to the gym, either.
He Qiya knew she could only go home as well.
