Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 505: Play the coward #504

Su Mu looked at the comments in Four Eyes’ social circle and thought they were so interesting they could make a TV drama.

Su Mu chuckled silently.

That Xian Tailang really had nothing better to do, to fixate so intently on Four Eyes like this.

If Four Eyes didn’t come out and take a stand or something soon, Xian Tailang would probably start to think he’s the sure winner.

Su Mu felt a bit puzzled; it’s not like he and Four Eyes had been messaging on WeChat for that long.

How come all the other classmates in Four Eyes’ social circle had been arguing with Xian Tailang for so long, yet Four Eyes hadn’t even popped up?

Could it be that Four Eyes, at that time, watched the drama unfold just like Su Mu was doing now?

But Su Mu thought that shouldn’t be the case.

Su Mu felt that he was watching the drama solely because Xian Tailang wasn’t anyone significant, and felt that Four Eyes should be able to handle it on his own.

Since it was something his good friend could handle, Su Mu was now just watching Xian Tailang jump around like a clown.

But it was different for Four Eyes.

Four Eyes was the main character whom Xian Tailang had singled out.

If Four Eyes had seen what Xian Tailang was saying, he should have immediately thought of a way to suppress Xian Tailang’s arrogant attitude.

No matter what, Xian Tailang was showing off in Four Eyes’ social circle.

Four Eyes shouldn’t let Xian Tailang swagger around for so long unchecked.

Su Mu knew his good friend wasn’t some pushover.

Four Eyes might seem a bit dopey, but those who truly knew Four Eyes understood that he wasn’t foolish.

Having thought it over, Su Mu felt that his current opinion of Four Eyes was still rather one-sided.

In other aspects, Four Eyes wasn’t foolish, but when it came to relationships, Su Mu thought his good friend was a bit "foolish."

He wondered when Four Eyes would become savvy in this area.

What Su Mu didn’t know was that Four Eyes wasn’t just letting Xian Tailang play the big bad wolf.

Four Eyes, after talking with Su Mu, also deeply felt that he missed a very rare opportunity.

Knowing that there was a great possibility he hadn’t comprehended Li Minli’s message in time and hadn’t given the correct response, Four Eyes, of course, had no interest in checking his social circle.

At that time, Four Eyes was full of regret.

Regretting, Four Eyes just paced around the room with his phone in hand.

Of course, Four Eyes did not open his social circle to take a look.

Displayed on the screen of Four Eyes’ phone was Li Minli’s phone number.

Pacing in his room, Four Eyes was also hesitating whether to call and try to salvage the opportunity Su Mu mentioned that he had missed.

Four Eyes was unsure whether Li Minli would accept it if he called after so much time had passed to confess his feelings or something.

Four Eyes was also afraid that by this time, Li Minli might have returned to her initial thought of not wanting to date him so early.

In that case, calling her now to confess his feelings could cause Li Minli to feel repulsed.

After much thought, Four Eyes decided to give up the idea of calling Li Minli.

Four Eyes felt Su Mu was right: he missed this opportunity and would have to wait until the next time he and Li Minli went on a date.

Four Eyes made a silent resolution in his heart.

He would definitely create a very romantic atmosphere next time.

If Li Minli gave in, Four Eyes would certainly take the first opportunity to confess his feelings to her again.

Four Eyes realized that he really should seek advice from Su Mu more often.

Now, Four Eyes truly understood that a top student’s intelligence was not limited to academic pursuits.

Su Mu’s kind of smarts extended to all aspects.

In short, Four Eyes felt that he could never go wrong by asking Su Mu for advice when he needed it.

Four Eyes found that becoming good friends with Su Mu was perhaps the most important achievement in his life.

No wonder when his dad found out that Su Mu was the young master of the Su Family conglomerate, and that his son had actually become good friends with the young master of the Su Family conglomerate,

Four Eyes’ dad was so kind to Four Eyes that he felt it would be unforgettable for the rest of his life.

It felt as if Four Eyes had done something extremely remarkable.

And this was something even his own dad could never accomplish.

To Four Eyes, that feeling was incredibly thrilling.

Four Eyes truly felt grateful from the bottom of his heart that Su Mu saw something in him and became good friends with him.

By the time Four Eyes realized that calling Li Minli now would be ill-timed, he finally had the chance to check his social media feed.

Four Eyes hadn’t got around to saying much to Xian Tailang earlier.

Four Eyes didn’t know if Xian Tailang would get bored at this point and give up on asking for a frontal photo of Li Minli.

After all, in Four Eyes’ view, Xian Tailang was a bored person to begin with.

Having been delayed for so long, Four Eyes thought Xian Tailang might have lost patience by now.

Of course, this was also the best outcome Four Eyes hoped to see.

Four Eyes felt that if Xian Tailang stopped pestering him, he had to be more cautious in the future.

If he got entangled by a petty person like Xian Tailang again, it wouldn’t be fun.

Unfortunately, when Four Eyes opened his WeChat social feed and saw all the comments, he really got a bit unsettled.

Four Eyes thought all he did was chat with Su Mu and then considered whether he should call Li Minli or not.

Even though there was indeed some delay, it wasn’t enough to justify all the comments under his social media post, right?

The only consolation for Four Eyes was that, aside from Xian Tailang, other classmates seemed to have changed their stance, no longer pressing him to post a frontal picture of the girl from behind.

Moreover, Four Eyes felt that his classmates had some loyalty, actually helping to scold Xian Tailang for being so unreasonable in making demands of him.

Naturally, Four Eyes saw those extremely arrogant messages that Xian Tailang had left.

But since some time had passed, Four Eyes wasn’t in a rush to reply to Xian Tailang’s messages right away.

Whether or not to post a frontal photo of Li Minli wasn’t something for Xian Tailang to decide.

Of course, Four Eyes couldn’t possibly buckle just because Xian Tailang was pressuring him.

Four Eyes simply found it troublesome to be bothered by someone as boring as Xian Tailang.

Four Eyes needed to find a way to make Xian Tailang back off, so he wouldn’t dare show off in his social media feed anymore.

Four Eyes quickly scrolled through the conversations between his classmates and Xian Tailang.

When Four Eyes saw someone mention that they had a friend who could deal with Xian Tailang in minutes, Su Mu’s name naturally popped into his mind.

However, Four Eyes wasn’t sure if that classmate was referring to Su Mu.

After all, the only person Four Eyes could think of who could sort out Xian Tailang in minutes was indeed only Su Mu.

Continuing to read on, Four Eyes felt certain that the person the classmates were talking about, who could handle Xian Tailang in minutes, was Su Mu.

It wasn’t just because Su Mu had suddenly come to Four Eyes’ mind.

Moreover, Four Eyes felt that apart from Su Mu, he really didn’t know anyone else with such capability.

After all, Xian Tailang’s family did possess some status in Huadong City.

To swiftly deal with that spoiled Xian Tailang, one would indeed need considerable power.

Naturally, Four Eyes thought that among the people he knew, only Su Mu had that ability.

The young master of the Su Family’s conglomerate, his status alone was enough to scare Xian Tailang back into line in minutes.

Four Eyes was certain of the reason his classmates believed this omnipotent person was Su Mu, and it was quite simple.

Essentially, those classmates had already made it clear, of course, without mentioning Su Mu’s name.

Hadn’t the classmates indirectly suggested that Xian Tailang’s three years of high school had been a waste?

Since high school was mentioned, this mighty person must definitely be one of their high school classmates.

With that, the range of possibilities had dramatically narrowed, hadn’t it?

If it had to be a high school classmate with the power to handle Xian Tailang.

Everyone was making it so obvious, if Four Eyes still couldn’t confirm everyone was referring to Su Mu.

Then truly, Four Eyes would be just as incapable of thinking things through as Xian Tailang.

Four Eyes might not stand out academically, but he certainly was not at the bottom of the class like Xian Tailang.

Four Eyes declared that if he ever did rank at the bottom, he truly wouldn’t have the face to be Su Mu’s friend.

Although Su Mu didn’t choose his friends based on their grades.

But Four Eyes knew he couldn’t shame Su Mu, could he?

Four Eyes was far cleverer than Xian Tailang when it came to academics.

And in other matters, his mind worked much faster than Xian Tailang’s as well.

The things everyone hinted at but Xian Tailang still didn’t understand, Four Eyes got them at once.

It was just that Xian Tailang really had a somewhat inadequate mind.

When everyone mentioned high school, Xian Tailang subconsciously felt they were mocking his poor grades.

However, Xian Tailang, never ashamed of his bad grades, didn’t think there was an issue.

So what if his grades were poor?

Xian Tailang believed he was born at a zenith many people couldn’t reach in their lifetimes.

Compared to them, Xian Tailang had a strong sense of superiority.

Xian Tailang figured that he didn’t need to try hard at all to live a life many would envy.

Thus, Xian Tailang ignored the "kind" warnings from others.

In reality, people weren’t genuinely trying to warn Xian Tailang, as he wasn’t particularly well-liked to begin with.

They simply didn’t want Xian Tailang, an insignificant person, to disturb Su Mu.

If Four Eyes couldn’t deal with Xian Tailang, he would surely ask for Su Mu’s help.

This much could be anticipated by others, and certainly also by Four Eyes himself.

Everyone felt it wouldn’t be right to trouble Su Mu over someone like Xian Tailang.

It was like having a general deal with a petty thug.

Wasn’t that a waste of resources?

So, the "well-intentioned" reminders to Xian Tailang were merely an expression of their belief that he didn’t deserve to bother Su Mu.

It really wasn’t because Xian Tailang was particularly well-liked by everyone.

It was simply because Xian Tailang did not take in any of the "kind intentions" at all, and everyone’s reminders turned out to be in vain.

While Xian Tailang didn’t take any heed of the warnings, Four Eyes immediately understood what everyone was thinking.

Ask Su Mu for help?

Four Eyes knew that if he asked, Su Mu would definitely lend a hand.

After all, dealing with Xian Tailang didn’t require Su Mu to intervene personally.

With just a word from Su Mu, Four Eyes could guarantee that Xian Tailang would surely shut his mouth obediently.

And would no longer dare to threaten to release the frontal photos of the girl photographed from behind.

Not to mention even thinking about lying in wait outside his villa complex to confront him.

Four Eyes knew that if Su Mu stepped in, even if he invited Xian Tailang to block him, Xian Tailang wouldn’t have the guts to do it.

Taking the trouble to help him find Li Minli’s information at Xinghuan Entertainment was something Su Mu had been willing to do for him.

This kind of matter that only required a warning to Xian Tailang in a Friends Circle, Four Eyes of course knew Su Mu would not postpone.

However, Four Eyes felt that while Su Mu was his friend, it seemed somewhat improper to trouble Su Mu for every little thing.

It wasn’t that he thought Su Mu would be displeased or anything.

Four Eyes merely felt that this was a very, very minor issue for Su Mu.

If even for such small matters he needed Su Mu to step in, it really seemed like he was too dependent on Su Mu.

In Four Eyes’ opinion, it made sense to seek Su Mu’s help for things like going to Xinghuan Entertainment, which he couldn’t manage without Su Mu’s intervention.

Not wanting to trouble Su Mu for everything, Four Eyes also didn’t immediately reply to Xian Tailang in the Friends Circle.

Since some time had passed, Four Eyes was racking his brains trying to figure out how to make Xian Tailang give up on chasing him for Li Minli’s frontal photo.

Of course, Four Eyes definitely did not want Xian Tailang to confront him just because he didn’t release Li Minli’s photo.

After all, Xian Tailang really guessed something correctly.

Four Eyes’ family was still unaware of Four Eyes’ dating.

Adding to that, the relationship between Four Eyes and Li Minli hadn’t been officially confirmed, so Four Eyes didn’t want to complicate matters.

Of course, if Li Minli agreed to be his girlfriend, Four Eyes would surely not hide it from his family.

After all, as far as Four Eyes was concerned, Li Minli was his life partner from now on.

Since he wanted to be together for a lifetime, Four Eyes of course wouldn’t keep it a secret from his family forever.

As soon as their relationship was confirmed, Four Eyes would definitely inform his family at the first opportunity.

It could only be said that, under the current circumstances, Four Eyes didn’t want his parents to find out about his affection for a girl because of Xian Tailang showing up at his door.

Four Eyes didn’t want to trouble Su Mu to step in and deal with Xian Tailang’s antics.

He also didn’t want Xian Tailang to spill the beans to his parents.

If Xian Tailang really did loiter every day at the gates of his villa complex, even though the guards would chase Xian Tailang away,

Four Eyes knew that given Xian Tailang’s penchant for stirring up trouble, he might well broadcast his issues far and wide before being chased off.

What might originally have been a very innocent romantic affair,

could be twisted into who knows what after passing through Xian Tailang’s lips.

Four Eyes wasn’t close with Xian Tailang, but he felt he knew what kind of person Xian Tailang was.
