Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 62 Deliberately Trying to Please

Chapter 62: Chapter 62 Deliberately Trying to Please freewebnøvel.com

"Director Xia, you’re too kind. I’ve merely done a bit of what I can," Bai Xiuping said, her words effortlessly polite in social settings.

Su Mu mentally gave his mother a big thumbs-up.

Seven million is just a bit of what she can do?

My mom sure is generous!

"Madam Su is too modest. Your support is the greatest we’ve received at the charity," said Xia Yiming, and his words were no exaggeration.

Over the years, the financial transformation of Bai Xiuping’s support for the charity amounted to a tremendous fortune.

Furthermore, Bai Xiuping topped the list of generous donors at the charity.

Xia Yiming’s treatment towards Bai Xiuping was well founded.

Bai Xiuping merely smiled.

Xia Yiming was being so courteous to her, undoubtedly hoping for next year’s donation, wasn’t he?

Bai Xiuping was very clear about this.

Despite finding Xia Yiming’s deliberate flattery somewhat unappealing,

her contributions to the charity were intended for impoverished children in mountainous areas and such – they had nothing to do with other people.

"Director Xia, we’ll take our leave now," Bai Xiuping said, making it clear she wasn’t interested in continuing the tiresome topic of flattery.

She immediately blocked any further compliments that Xia Yiming might have wanted to offer.

"Of course, Madam Su, Young Master Su, right this way," Xia Yiming replied.

"I’ll see you out."

Xia Yiming escorted Su Mu and Bai Xiuping out of the venue.

Xiao Wang, having received a message from Su Mu earlier, had the Lincoln waiting at the front door.

"Goodbye, Madam Su, Young Master Su," Xia Yiming said.

Even as Su Mu and Bai Xiuping got into the stretched Lincoln, Xia Yiming still stood by the vehicle, showing no intention of leaving.

Without any need for further acknowledgment, the Lincoln drove off.

Inside the car, Bai Xiuping, who had recently been preoccupied with the company’s IPO and had little time to care for her son,

chatted with Su Mu about the daily happenings of the past few days.

She wanted to see if Xiao Mu was having any difficulties with the sudden change in status.

The answer was, unsurprisingly, no.

Su Mu said he was extremely comfortable with the change in status.

Very comfortable indeed.

After all, who wouldn’t want to become wealthy?

Especially the kind of super-wealthy tycoon!

Additionally, due to the public revelation of Su Mu’s identity, he received an unexpected surprise—a system reward.

These were things Su Mu admitted he really liked an awful lot.

Now was certainly the time for Su Mu to enjoy the life of a rich man. How could he not be comfortable?

Su Mu thought his mother was worrying over nothing.

Seeing her son’s relaxed face, Bai Xiuping finally let go of the small worry she had in her heart these past days.

With the important matters out of the way, the conversation naturally became much lighter.

Bai Xiuping was still very interested in Jiang Xinxuan.

She kept asking Su Mu questions about Jiang Xinxuan all the way home.

Not until Su Mu promised to bring his girlfriend to meet his mother after some time,

did Bai Xiuping show a satisfied smile.

She felt a little triumphant inside: Stinky kid, couldn’t you have agreed sooner? It’s your fault that mom had to engage in this battle of wits with you, and in the end, it was only through sheer exhaustion that Su Mu gave up resisting.

As the Lincoln pulled up in the castle’s courtyard,

Su Mu hopped out of the car as though he had received a pardon, quickly saying, "Good night, Mom."

Without waiting for his mother’s response, he headed straight to his room.

Su Ruizhi, who had returned to the castle before Su Mu and Bai Xiuping, came out upon hearing the commotion in the courtyard.

He saw Su Mu’s retreating figure and shook his head in confusion. What’s with the kid lately, so afraid of his wife?

"Wife, what’s up with Xiao Mu?" he asked.

Su Ruizhi stepped forward to embrace Bai Xiuping, who had just alighted from the car, and asked with a puzzled expression.

Was it not just about attending a charity event?

Did the child really have to "flee" back?

Thinking of the promise her son had made, Bai Xiuping smiled proudly.

"Xiao Mu might be too excited, he plans to bring his girlfriend to meet me after some time."

Su Ruizhi was speechless.

Did Xiao Mu look happy?

Su Ruizhi felt that his wife’s confidence could sometimes be overly strong, completely ignoring the person’s unwillingness.

"Tired? Want me to give you a massage?"

Knowing that he couldn’t discuss with his wife whether Xiao Mu was happy or escaping, wouldn’t that upset Madam?

While hugging his wife, Su Ruizhi walked towards the castle, skillfully changing the subject.

"I’m fine, honey. I just realized tonight how amazing our son is at dancing."

"You can hand over the title of ’Dance King’ to him."

"Really? When did I not know that Xiao Mu could dance?"

"I didn’t know either, wasn’t there no opportunity for Xiao Mu to show off before?"

When Bai Xiuping talked about Su Mu, she was brimming with pride, endlessly praising Su Mu’s impressive skills to Su Ruizhi.

Su Mu, who "escaped" to his room, took a hot bath straight away and then walked towards the large bed feeling refreshed.

Mom wants to meet my girlfriend.

The last time Su Mu mentioned to Jiang Xinxuan about introducing her to his parents, Xiao Xuan didn’t object.

Su Mu decided, that settles it.

When would be a good time to arrange for Mom and Xiao Xuan to meet?

Su Mu picked up his phone, intending to ask Xiao Xuan’s opinion.

"Dingdong"

WeChat made a sound.

This telepathy?

Su Mu wondered if Xiao Xuan knew he was about to contact her at this time?

Upon checking WeChat, it wasn’t Jiang Xinxuan’s profile picture.

The profile picture seemed unfamiliar.

However, since the profile picture was on his friends list, Su Mu knew it must be someone he recognized.

He clicked open

"Su Mu, do you have any issues with me?"

A message out of the blue, leaving Su Mu quite puzzled.

"Who is this?"

He scrolled, but there were no chat records.

Su Mu really couldn’t remember who this was.

That tone made it sound as if Su Mu had recently offended him.

Unfortunately, Su Mu couldn’t recall having any unpleasantness with anyone in recent days.

Silence

Just when Su Mu thought the other party wouldn’t reply, three words appeared on WeChat.

"He Qiya"

Only then did Su Mu remember that he indeed just added He Qiya on WeChat this afternoon.

Since he hadn’t paid much attention, Su Mu hadn’t even noticed He Qiya’s WeChat profile picture.

That’s why the earlier awkwardness unfolded.

But Su Mu had no idea what He Qiya meant by saying he had any issues with her?

Nothing happened while they were driving together that day, right?

And there was nothing to talk about at the charity event either.

They hadn’t even exchanged a word, so where did the claim of having issues come from?

"Sorry, I didn’t realize it was you for a moment."

He greeted, feeling that his attitude just now might have been somewhat offensive.

Su Mu expressed apology for his unintentional mistake.

"Do you have any issues with me?"

Su Mu didn’t answer He Qiya’s initial question because he felt that there was no point in discussing this matter between him and He Qiya.

Unfortunately, He Qiya was persistent.

Seeing that Su Mu didn’t reply, He Qiya sent the message again.
