Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 388 - 387 Tacit Understanding

"Was it really a call from the principal’s office?"

The security guard known as Xiao Wu had been standing beside He Qiya’s car, and although he already had some suspicions,

he had overheard every single word spoken by the beauty in the Ferrari during her phone call.

Although Xiao Wu had mentally prepared himself, he was still somewhat shocked when his colleague suddenly called out to him like that.

He reflexively questioned back, just feeling that the response from the principal’s office was a bit too swift, wasn’t it?

After all, the beauty in the Ferrari had only just hung up her phone.

And there was already a reaction from the principal?

Now, the security guard was convinced—Principal Zhou must indeed be the beauty’s uncle.

Without such a close familial relationship, the principal’s actions wouldn’t have been so proactive, right?

"Would there be any doubt when Principal Zhou himself made the call?"

"What are you dawdling for? Principal Zhou said to let her through."

The older security guard spoke as he walked up to the red Ferrari.

It wasn’t that the guard hadn’t noticed the even more striking black Ferrari.

But now, with his colleague standing beside the red Ferrari, the older security guard naturally understood that the "Miss He" mentioned by Principal Zhou must be inside the red Ferrari.

It wasn’t that the security guard was particularly clever.

When Principal Zhou said it was "Miss He," it had to be a girl.

But the owner of the black Ferrari was a young and handsome guy, whose identity clearly didn’t match.

"Hello, may I ask if you are Miss He?"

Walking up to the red Ferrari and stopping beside it, the older security guard asked respectfully.

"Old Qin, this is Miss He."

He Qiya had already introduced herself, and as a security guard, Xiao Wu was, of course, aware of it.

Seeing his colleague still asking such a question, Xiao Wu immediately stepped forward to answer.

Old Qin glared at Xiao Wu with dissatisfaction. He had been addressing a VIP guest. What was Xiao Wu butting in for?

Knowing that someone Principal Zhou would personally call to let in was a rare occurrence at Yude High School.

Having worked as a security guard at Yude High School for more than a decade, this was a first time for Old Qin.

Naturally, Old Qin had hoped to exchange a few words with this VIP guest.

But now that Xiao Wu had interrupted so bluntly, of course Old Qin was not pleased.

Unfortunately, Xiao Wu failed to notice the displeased expression on Old Qin’s face.

Xiao Wu felt quite honored to know the identity of the beauty in the Ferrari.

With a sense of pride, Xiao Wu continued to introduce her.

"Old Qin, this is Principal Zhou’s niece, Miss He."

Unfortunately, neither of the people involved paid any attention to what Xiao Wu was saying.

He Qiya had also heard the words of the security guard called Old Wu.

Hadn’t he said to open the gate and let her through?

Just opening the gate would suffice, so why all this fuss?

Puzzled, He Qiya glanced at the man called Old Wu but had no interest in getting to know these people.

As far as He Qiya was concerned, the likelihood of her coming to Yude High School in the future was slim.

This visit was only because "Four Eyes" was a friend of Su Mu’s, otherwise He Qiya wouldn’t have bothered.

Since she probably wouldn’t come again, there was no point for He Qiya to invest energy in remembering people she would have no need to recall.

"Of course, I know that."

Old Qin glared at Xiao Wu, who lacked tact, then immediately switched to a smiling face as he turned his head.

"Hello Miss He, Principal Zhou had already called just now, you and your friend can go straight in."

"Also, Principal Zhou asked me to tell you to take a left after entering the school gates, he has arranged for his assistant to wait for you at the parking lot."

Although Old Qin didn’t know what exactly Principal Zhou’s assistant was waiting to do for Miss He.

The fact that Principal Zhou personally made the call was enough to signify his special regard for Miss He.

Old Qin wanted to clarify he wasn’t intentionally delaying Miss He from entering the school.

Because Principal Zhou had given him instructions to convey to Miss He, Old Qin certainly wouldn’t dare to just open the gate from the security room.

What if the school gate opened and Miss He and her friends drove their luxury cars straight in?

Then wouldn’t it mean that Old Qin failed to fulfill Principal Zhou’s particular instructions?

Old Qin couldn’t bear such responsibility.

"Alright, I’ve got it."

He Qiya nodded, so that’s how it was.

Now He Qiya understood why Old Qin, the security guard, insisted on coming over.

It turned out he was tasked with a duty.

He Qiya thought her uncle had been quite considerate.

Although her aunt had informed He Qiya of Li Minli’s class information over WeChat.

But for He Qiya, who had never been to Yude High School, it would still require a slow search.

Now it was fine, with the principal’s assistant offering help, He Qiya, Su Mu, and Four Eyes didn’t need to put in that effort.

They could just go straight there.

Moreover, He Qiya understood that with the principal’s assistant intervening, Li Minli would certainly obediently follow them out of the classroom.

This also spared He Qiya and Four Eyes the trouble of needing to explain a lot to persuade Li Minli to step out of the class for a proper talk.

"Okay, Miss He, I’ll go open the gate right now."

Seeing that the important guest had received the message entrusted by Principal Zhou, Old Qin felt a sense of task completion.

Ignoring Xiao Wu, who was still standing there stupefied, Old Qin nodded at He Qiya then turned and ran toward the security room.

What use was Xiao Wu standing there at such a time?

Old Qin felt those extra ten-plus years he possessed over Xiao Wu weren’t spent just eating plain rice for nothing.

At critical moments, having a sharp mind was very important.

Did Miss He need him standing by her car like a block of wood at such a time?

The answer, of course, was no.

Old Qin knew that what Miss He now wished for most was to see the gates of Yude High School opened sooner.

Watching Old Qin run back, He Qiya knew the matter had been resolved.

She rolled up the car window.

At this moment, He Qiya didn’t need to explain anything further, and she wouldn’t have said another word even if Xiao Wu remained standing there.

Of course, the window was raised, waiting for the school gate to open so they could drive straight in.

Old Qin was very fast, and the large gate in front of Su Mu and the others was quickly opened.

Su Mu knew the security guard who came after must have said something to He Qiya.

So Su Mu didn’t rush to be the first to drive in.

At this time, He Qiya seemed to have a great understanding with Su Mu.

Without needing to say much, Su Mu’s black Ferrari stayed put, while He Qiya’s red Ferrari was the first to drive through the school gate.

Su Mu’s car followed behind He Qiya’s, and Four Eyes was last.

He Qiya turned on the left-turn signal, indicating to Su Mu and Four Eyes following behind that they should turn left after entering the school gate.

Su Mu realized that his guess had been correct; it seemed He Qiya really had a purpose in coming here.

The parking lot of Yude High School is above ground, which is also the teacher’s parking lot.

It’s not too far from the school’s main gate.

A few minutes’ walk later, He Qiya saw a young man standing at the entrance to the parking lot.

He must be the assistant of Principal Zhou that the security guard mentioned.

When the young man saw the red Ferrari coming, he immediately moved aside a bit.

The man was Xiao Zhang, the assistant sent by the principal to wait for He Qiya.

Originally, Xiao Zhang received instructions from the principal to wait in the parking lot for the principal’s niece.

The principal said his niece would be visiting the school to find a sophomore girl and asked Xiao Zhang to bring her there.

Xiao Zhang was already mentally prepared; the principal’s niece must also be a missy for sure.

But when he saw three luxury cars driving towards the parking lot at the same time, Xiao Zhang’s heart still uncontrollably skipped a beat.

Wasn’t the principal just asking him to attend to his niece?

A red Ferrari 599 was flashy enough already.

But why was there an even more imposing black Ferrari 812 following?

And behind the black Ferrari, there was a Pagani?

What kind of lineup was this?

Xiao Zhang found that the principal’s niece seemed to have even more presence than the principal himself.

Based on his first impression, Xiao Zhang felt that the owner of the red Ferrari in the front must be the niece Principal Zhou mentioned.

As for the two even more luxurious cars behind, Xiao Zhang could only guess at the real identities of their owners.

Xiao Zhang even wondered if Principal Zhou had left out the most important information.

These three luxury cars clearly indicated that Principal Zhou’s niece was not the highest in rank.

Could it be that Principal Zhou sent him over not just to attend to the most important person?

No matter how many doubts he had in his heart, Xiao Zhang couldn’t find the answer.

He had no choice; Principal Zhou had only given Xiao Zhang one piece of information.

At that moment, Xiao Zhang could only run over to the red Ferrari, which had already parked.

As soon as He Qiya parked the car, she opened the driver’s side door and stepped out.

Four Eyes, although he was the last to drive into the parking lot, did not delay either.

Almost at the same time as He Qiya, Four Eyes also turned off the engine and opened the driver’s side door to get out.

The middle black Ferrari, however, showed no signs of turning off its engine.

Xiao Zhang was somewhat puzzled in his mind; did the owner of the black Ferrari not intend to get out of the car?

Similarly, Xiao Zhang did not dare to voice this question aloud.

Who knew who was inside the black Ferrari? Xiao Zhang thought it best to just do as Principal Zhou had instructed.

"Hello, may I ask if you are Miss He? I am Xiao Zhang, Principal Zhou’s assistant," said Xiao Zhang, politely inquiring with a slight bow.

In fact, Xiao Zhang already had his answer in mind.

Even though the owner of the black Ferrari had not gotten out, Xiao Zhang still sneakily glanced through the Ferrari’s front windshield.

It seemed to be a young man.

Just then, Su Mu happened to lower his head, and Xiao Zhang didn’t get a clear look at the face of the owner of the black Ferrari.

The owner of the Pagani who got out was a chubby young man wearing glasses.

Xiao Zhang of course understood then, that only the owner of this red Ferrari could be Principal Zhou’s niece.

So Xiao Zhang had confirmed He Qiya’s identity, but still asked out of caution.

"I am He Qiya."

He Qiya nodded affirmatively in response to Xiao Zhang’s question.

The security guard at the gate had already relayed the message from He Qiya’s cousin uncle, who was also Yude High School’s Principal Zhou.

He Qiya knew that her cousin uncle had arranged a guide for her at the school to facilitate her affairs.

"Miss He, hello, Principal Zhou has already instructed me, and I will take you to find Li Minli right away."

Because He Qiya’s aunt had already told her husband, Principal Zhou of Yude High School, the name of the girl He Qiya was looking for.

Just now, He Qiya’s cousin uncle had instructed his assistant to greet He Qiya and had mentioned this matter as well.

The assistant Xiao Zhang was also sharp; upon leaving the principal’s office, Xiao Zhang had already learned all the specific information about Li Minli.

Li Minli, a student in class two of grade eleven at Yude High School.

Xiao Zhang knew that he had to understand all these details so he wouldn’t waste the time of Principal Zhou’s niece when she arrived.

Otherwise, if he had to look up which class Li Minli belonged to in front of Miss He, Xiao Zhang felt it would seem very unprofessional.

The principal’s assistant, which is akin to the role of a secretary.

Surely, as an assistant, he was supposed to have done his homework in advance.

Xiao Zhang made a gesturing invite.

Class eleven grade two was located in the academic building to the left of the parking lot, and Xiao Zhang knew that Miss He likely didn’t know the exact location.

Wasn’t Xiao Zhang’s role to lead Miss He to find Li Minli?

However, Xiao Zhang felt it odd that Miss He had come to the school to find someone and had brought along two people whose status was obviously not simple.

The chubby boy driving the Pagani, Xiao Zhang thought, aside from being rich, didn’t have any particularly stunning attributes.

Especially when compared with a great beauty like Miss He, Xiao Zhang felt that the chubby boy was quite ordinary.

It was now unclear whether the owner of the dazzling black Ferrari was the same as the chubby boy.

Because Xiao Zhang was already standing next to the red Ferrari, and at this point naturally couldn’t see the appearance of Su Mu in the black Ferrari.

Xiao Zhang figured that perhaps aside from Miss He, the owners of the other two luxury cars were just rich second-generation kids who had been born into the right families.

After all, aside from being wealthy, Xiao Zhang didn’t think the chubby boy was even as good-looking as himself.

"Wait a minute."

He Qiya did not immediately proceed to find someone.

She glanced at Su Mu, who had not gotten out of the car, and then looked at Four Eyes.

He Qiya felt it odd, wondering if Su Mu, who had agreed to come along, was just here to visit Yude High School?

It seemed like Su Mu didn’t intend to accompany Four Eyes to find the person.

He Qiya’s eyes were filled with perplexity as she looked toward Four Eyes.

Four Eyes shrugged, indicating that he was unclear about Su Mu’s intentions too.

Four Eyes knew what He Qiya wanted to express, which was for Su Mu to accompany them.

Now Four Eyes needed He Qiya’s help and had no choice but to approach Su Mu’s black Ferrari.

Originally, Four Eyes didn’t care much whether Su Mu would accompany him to the classroom to find Li Minli.

Four Eyes knew that Su Mu had already provided all the help he could.

He couldn’t expect Su Mu to be involved in his romance all the time, right?

Some things Four Eyes needed to do himself.

Just like confronting Li Minli in person.

Having He Qiya along was just to make Li Minli feel less scared.

Su Mu didn’t have this advantage, so Four Eyes didn’t want to insist.
