Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 349 - 348: The Position of the Eldest Brother
Chapter 349: Chapter 348: The Position of the Eldest Brother
By the time Su Mu finished the entire set of Tai Chi with Grandpa, it was almost 8:30.
Initially, Elder Su thought that Xiao Mu had something to go out for today, so he planned to practice less.
However, Su Mu insisted, and the pair still completed the entire set of Tai Chi.
Su Mu felt that he did not spend a lot of time with Grandpa to begin with.
Before he knew of his identity, Grandpa had always lived alone in the castle.
Of course, there were also Ah Fook and some other servants in the castle.
But Ah Fook was responsible for taking care of Elder Su’s daily life.
On an emotional level, he definitely could not compare with Su Mu.
Su Mu thought that once he started university, he would not have time to be with Grandpa, so he definitely needed to make good use of the summer vacation.
Unless there were special circumstances, the morning exercise had already become a necessary part of Su Mu’s daily routine.
"Grandpa, I’m going to go back to my room to change clothes," Su Mu said.
Having finished, Su Mu walked Grandpa to a nearby chair.
After making sure Grandpa sat down, Su Mu bid him farewell.
"Go ahead, but drive slowly, and come back early in the evening," Elder Su added, not forgetting his recent wish for his grandson to rest well.
"Got it, Grandpa, I’ll come back for dinner tonight."
Waving to Elder Su, Su Mu jogged back toward the castle.
Although he knew that even if he was late, Four Eyes and He Qiya wouldn’t say anything.
But Su Mu was a punctual person, unless he encountered something unusual like traffic on the way.
Based on his estimate, Su Mu knew he wouldn’t be arriving at Xinghuan Entertainment’s front gate later than nine o’clock.
He went back to his room and changed into a more casual outfit.
Today, Su Mu was just going to accompany Four Eyes to meet someone; he felt he wasn’t the main character and didn’t need to dress too formally.
Besides, it’s not like he was going to Xinghuan Entertainment to discuss business, so being more casual was not an issue at all.
"Vroom..."
This time, Su Mu chose to drive his favorite black Ferrari 812.
Even though the yellow and blue Ferrari 812s were more colorful, Su Mu still thought the black one was the coolest.
He purchased the yellow and blue Ferraris simply to vary his mood when driving occasionally.
There was no need for Su Mu to pause; the castle’s gate was already prepared as the black Ferrari roared to life.
As soon as Su Mu started driving the black Ferrari 812 out of the garage, the castle’s main gate automatically opened.
Speeding along the way, Su Mu knew the drive would not be as smooth once he entered the city center, so he sped along the mountain roads.
Because He Qiya had said they would meet at Xinghuan Entertainment’s entrance.
At a familiar intersection, Su Mu’s car didn’t slow down at all and just drove past.
After some time, Su Mu glanced at the rear-view mirror and, as expected, didn’t see the familiar red Ferrari following.
Indeed, He Qiya was already waiting at the entrance of Xinghuan Entertainment by then.
Su Mu had said nine o’clock in the morning, but He Qiya had arrived much earlier.
He Qiya did not go into the company in advance, either.
Yesterday afternoon, Huang Yuqin had already taken He Qiya to show her face at Xinghuan Entertainment.
They had also specifically discussed some matters about today.
It could be said that by now, virtually everyone with rank in Xinghuan Entertainment had already met the company’s young miss.
Therefore, He Qiya did not need to prepare anything else within the company.
Currently, He Qiya’s most important task was simply to wait for Su Mu to show up.
Initially, He Qiya had wanted to wait for Su Mu on the mountain road.
But remembering their agreement to meet at Xinghuan Entertainment’s gate, He Qiya gave up on the idea of seeing Su Mu earlier.
He Qiya feared her own initiative might be too strong and would upset Su Mu.
If Su Mu distanced himself from her in the future, that would be a loss not worth the gain.
But since she could spend the whole morning with Su Mu, He Qiya’s heart was still very thrilled.
Su Mu was very precise with time.
Even as he entered the city center of Huadong City, Su Mu encountered no traffic jams.
Not to mention the kind of incidents often reported in the news where people forcefully merge into traffic.
Along the way, other vehicles generally kept a distance from the black Ferrari.
Even when stopping at a red light, Su Mu noticed the cars behind him would keep a distance of a meter or two from his car.
Su Mu knew it was not because those people were not in a hurry.
It was not yet nine o’clock, the peak of rush hour.
Those car owners were simply very discerning.
They knew that if they happened to hit or scratch that dazzling black Ferrari 812, it wouldn’t be a small sum that could resolve the issue.
Compared to that amount, those car owners would rather be late to work than squeeze in close to the black Ferrari.
Being late for work at worst would mean a dock in attendance or something like that, but compared to hitting or scratching a Ferrari 812, that amount of money is practically negligible.
Smoothly navigating the traffic, Su Mu parked his car outside the entrance of Xinghuan Entertainment and glanced at his wristwatch.
It was 8:58 am, not only was he not late, but he had also arrived two minutes early.
Looking at the entrance of Xinghuan Entertainment, Su Mu saw no sign of Four Eyes or He Qiya.
Could it be that the two of them were late?
Su Mu felt that if Four Eyes held this attitude, achieving his goal of winning someone’s heart within a week would be extremely difficult.
As for He Qiya, well, Su Mu could understand.
After all, today’s matter didn’t have much to do with He Qiya.
It was understandable that Miss He was not so eager.
In the scorching heat, Su Mu didn’t want to stand under the sun and decided to wait inside the car instead.
"Knock knock"
Two not very loud sounds came from the driver’s side window.
Su Mu turned his head to look.
He saw a man in a security uniform bending over and standing beside his car.
Clearly, it was the security guard who had knocked on the window.
Through the car window, Su Mu saw the Xinghuan Entertainment label on the pocket of the guard’s uniform.
Su Mu understood that the security from Xinghuan Entertainment had come to ask him to leave.
He rolled down the window a bit, as it was their turf, and Su Mu didn’t want to be rude.
Su Mu had parked directly in front of the entrance of Xinghuan Entertainment because he and Four Eyes, as well as He Qiya, had agreed to meet at the entrance.
However, if it went against the company’s rules, Su Mu wouldn’t mind moving his car.
After all, this was not the Su Family Corporation, and he couldn’t brazenly keep his car parked at the entrance indefinitely.
"Good morning, sir, parking here is not allowed."
Seeing the owner of the Ferrari lower the window, the security guard greeted him very politely.
Those who could drive such luxury cars were wealthy indeed.
The guard wasn’t a fool and would not easily offend these rich individuals.
If the company hadn’t mandated it, he wouldn’t even consider approaching to knock on the window.
In case he encountered someone with a bad temper, the guard knew he could not avoid a scolding.
"Sir..."
The security guard intended to say more, but when he clearly saw Su Mu’s features, he found himself at a loss for words.
That level of attractiveness?
The security guard didn’t even know how to describe it anymore.
Xinghuan Entertainment is the largest entertainment company in Huadong City.
The stars there are definitely the hottest of the hot.
As for celebrities, their faces definitely can’t be ugly—that has almost become an ironclad rule.
It’s not just that they can’t be ugly; it could be said that all stars are paragons of beauty.
There’s even a saying that goes like this: "As long as you’re good-looking, you’re the truth."
You can imagine how important a person’s face is in this society.
Let alone in Xinghuan Entertainment, where handsome guys and beautiful girls are everywhere.
It stands to reason that the security guard is on duty at Xinghuan Entertainment.
He’s certainly seen plenty of good-looking stars.
But the security guard swore he had never seen such a good-looking male star at Xinghuan Entertainment.
The security guard would bet his life that if the owner of this Ferrari came to develop his career in Xinghuan Entertainment,
he would unseat the current top male star.
Wait a minute...
Who says such a good-looking guy isn’t here to become a star at Xinghuan Entertainment?
The security guard was moved by his own cleverness.
"Sir, may I ask if you are a newly signed artist with our Xinghuan Entertainment?"
"I’m sorry, sir, but the company has a policy that you can’t park here."
"Could you please move your car to that parking lot over there?"
The security guard pointed with one hand to the left, his back still bent.
Even if the owner of this Ferrari is a newly signed artist at the company, the security guard didn’t dare to treat him with the same attitude he used for other newcomers.
Not to mention the power behind the good-looking guy.
Being able to drive a Ferrari 812 to the company before even becoming a star, the security guard felt the guy’s family background must be quite solid.
Just looking at the guy’s face, the security guard didn’t dare to show the slightest negligence.
If a face like his couldn’t make it big, Xinghuan Entertainment might as well close its doors.
The security guard already considered the handsome guy the future top heartthrob of Xinghuan Entertainment.
Su Mu nodded, preparing to drive to the parking lot the security guard had pointed out.
The company had its rules, and Su Mu had no intention of making things difficult for a security guard.
Su Mu was there because he genuinely didn’t know where the Xinghuan Entertainment parking lot was and planned to meet up with He Qiya and Four Eyes later, then drive the car away together.
Now that the security guard had pointed out the direction, Su Mu didn’t plan to dawdle.
At most, he would wait in the parking lot for those two "latecomers."
"Su Mu..."
Before Su Mu could step on the gas, a familiar voice came through.
With the voice came a figure running up.
On closer inspection, Su Mu realized it was He Qiya.
But today’s He Qiya looked very different from the usual look Su Mu was accustomed to seeing.
She had applied light makeup, which Su Mu had already seen when he celebrated her eighteenth birthday with her—not particularly unusual.
Today’s biggest change for He Qiya, Su Mu noticed, was that she was actually wearing a professional suit dress.
He Qiya’s figure was already outstanding.
The fitted suit dress on her body further accentuated He Qiya’s feminine beauty.
Could it be that He Qiya was already working at her own family’s company?
So when Su Mu said he was coming to Xinghuan Entertainment to meet someone, He Qiya eagerly volunteered to come along?
Su Mu felt this guess was very likely.
If He Qiya was just accompanying Su Mu and Four Eyes to visit Xinghuan Entertainment, there was really no need for her to dress so formally.
You should know that Su Mu was dressed very casually.
Just as Su Mu was quietly speculating in his mind, He Qiya had already jogged up to the Ferrari.
"Miss,"
Seeing He Qiya emerge, the security guard immediately made way.
The security guards certainly recognized this young lady.
Just yesterday, the chairman’s wife personally brought her to the company.
Although the chairman’s wife and the young lady met with some of the mid-to-high level employees with certain positions.
As the first line of defense for Xinghuan Entertainment, even if Huang Yuqin didn’t introduce He Qiya to these security guards.
All of Xinghuan Entertainment’s security guards had already memorized the young lady’s features deep in their minds.
This was a matter related to their own livelihood; which security guard would dare not to remember the young lady?
If someone carelessly slighted the young lady, it was very likely they would be sent home to fend for themselves.
Now, even a blind person could see that the young lady was here for the handsome guy in the Ferrari.
Of course, the security guard wouldn’t dare to occupy the young lady’s place.
After respectfully calling out, the security guard quietly backed away a few steps.
The security guard’s curiosity about the handsome guy’s identity grew even stronger.
Did the young lady know the handsome guy?
Could it be that the handsome guy was someone the young lady was introducing to Xinghuan Entertainment to become an artist?
No wonder, the security guard had been working at Xinghuan Entertainment for several years and had never seen the young lady visiting the company.
Yet she appeared so prominently in the company yesterday.
The security guard and his colleagues had privately speculated whether the young lady was coming to work at the company or something.
All the employees at Xinghuan Entertainment knew that their chairman had only one daughter.
That is to say, Xinghuan Entertainment was eventually going to be inherited by the young lady.
Therefore, having the young lady working at the company would be like the chairman training his successor ahead of time.
But now it seemed that this was not the case.
He Qiya had long arrived at the entrance of Xinghuan Entertainment, a fact of which the security guard was very aware.
He Qiya had driven and parked the car aside in the parking lot before walking back to the entrance of Xinghuan Entertainment.
At that moment, the security guard even found it strange that internal staff usually parked their cars in the underground parking lot.
There was an elevator there, which could take you right up to the floors.
If it was someone from outside who came to Xinghuan Entertainment, the security guard would let them park in the ground-level parking lot.
Which was the one the security guard had just pointed out to Su Mu.
But it wasn’t like that for their own company’s young lady.
Moreover, after He Qiya got out of the car, she didn’t seem to intend to enter the company.
The security guard remembered that at the time, he had specifically stepped forward, waiting to guide the young lady into the company.
But the young lady hadn’t said anything, and simply waved her hand, as if declining the security guard’s kind offer.
Although the security guard couldn’t understand, he didn’t dare to approach and ask.
He could only return to his work post and do his job.
Originally, He Qiya had been standing at the entrance of Xinghuan Entertainment waiting for Su Mu.
After receiving a phone call and considering the sun was quite harsh, He Qiya had moved a few steps away.
He Qiya thought, as long as she could see the entrance of Xinghuan Entertainment, she would notice Su Mu when he arrived.
As it turned out, He Qiya’s thoughts were very correct.
Indeed, as soon as Su Mu stopped the car, He Qiya noticed him.
It was just that Xinghuan Entertainment’s security guard was even more proactive, and he ran up before He Qiya could.
