Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 528 - 527: An Additional Opportunity to Perform
Chapter 528: Chapter 527: An Additional Opportunity to Perform
Of course, Su Mu possessed the Champion Driving Skill that the system had granted him.
Not to mention a rookie like Jiang Xinxuan, even the world’s top racing experts would likely only have a slight advantage over Su Mu in terms of experience.
But that experience was simply not enough to contend with Su Mu.
By now, Su Mu had a pretty good handle on driving.
If there really was a contest between experts, Su Mu wouldn’t need to exert much effort to win.
It could be said to be a very easy task.
Bai Mingyun knew that Xuanxuan wouldn’t have such an expression just from being tired.
Therefore, for Bai Mingyun, her daughter’s sudden behavior must mean that Xuanxuan suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Seeing Xuanxuan’s condition, Bai Mingyun anxiously stepped forward, asking eagerly,
"Xuanxuan, do you feel unwell somewhere? Shall Mom take you to the hospital for a check-up?"
Bai Mingyun knew her daughter was always in very good health.
But today, Xuanxuan’s sudden appearance truly frightened Bai Mingyun.
If Xuanxuan felt unwell, Bai Mingyun naturally thought of taking Xuanxuan to the hospital for a check-up.
As Bai Mingyun asked her daughter, Allen and Su Mu had just entered the Bai Family’s villa gate.
So, Su Mu and Allen didn’t notice the small commotion caused by Bai Mingyun’s words behind them.
"Xuanxuan, what’s making you uncomfortable? Shall Uncle have someone take you to the hospital to have a look?"
"Yes, Xuanxuan, what’s wrong? You were fine when you got out of the car just now, why has your complexion suddenly become so bad? Shall Auntie accompany you to the hospital for a check-up?"
Bai Mingqi, because he wanted to go in and accompany Su Mu, the esteemed guest, thought of having someone take Xuanxuan to the hospital.
Upon hearing her husband say so, He Jingfen immediately chimed in.
He Jingfen felt that Su Mu’s visit to the Bai Family was thanks to Xuanxuan’s relationship, and of course, they needed to take good care of Xuanxuan.
Of course, He Jingfen also dearly loved her niece.
At this time, He Jingfen’s concern for Jiang Xinxuan truly came from the heart.
Bai Mingqi certainly cared for his niece as well, but for him, Su Mu currently held a more important place in his heart than Xuanxuan.
Besides, Bai Mingqi wasn’t neglecting his niece; seeing Xuanxuan’s condition didn’t seem too serious.
It just looked like a pale complexion, and Bai Mingqi thought she might just be a bit uncomfortable.
Having someone take Xuanxuan to the hospital seemed like a sufficient response to Bai Mingqi.
If a big group went to the hospital with her, that would be making a mountain out of a molehill.
"Xuanxuan, where do you feel unwell? Shall I accompany you to the hospital? The director of the city hospital is a relative of my wife, and I can ask the director to examine you personally."
"Right, right, Xuanxuan, I’ll contact the director right away and have him wait for us at the hospital."
A young man, hearing Bai Mingyun, Bai Mingqi, and He Jingfen all mention the hospital, quickly stood out to make his presence felt and expressed his concern for Jiang Xinxuan.
The man’s wife, also savvy, immediately took out her phone ready to contact her relative who was the hospital director.
The couple both had a smug look on their faces, seeing this as a great opportunity to show off in front of everyone.
Especially since the person they were trying to impress was the young master of the Su Family conglomerate.
The couple’s current object of concern was Jiang Xinxuan, but wasn’t Jiang Xinxuan the girlfriend of the Su Family’s young master?
After showing concern for Su Mu’s girlfriend, how could Young Master Su himself be unaware?
One could say, the thoughts of this young couple are indeed nimble.
And it’s due to their connections after all, the director of the city hospital.
It’s not like anyone can have the director waiting in the hospital, just to serve one person.
It’s evident that the relationship between the young couple and the director of the city hospital they mentioned must be very close.
Of course, it’s estimated that the young couple would have clearly communicated the identity of the "patient" the director was about to receive on the phone.
They surely wouldn’t have used Jiang Xinxuan’s name directly.
Not to mention Jiang Xinxuan, even if they reported Jiang Xinxuan’s father’s name directly, the director might not necessarily know it.
But if they mentioned that it’s the girlfriend of the Su Family Group’s young master of Huadong City, they wouldn’t need a specific name, the director would definitely understand very clearly and plainly.
The young couple wasn’t worried about being rejected by the director at all.
If you dare to refuse, wouldn’t that be blatantly offending the Su Family Group?
After all, the young couple was going there under the name of the Su Family Group’s Young Master.
In their hearts, both spouses knew, even if their own influence wasn’t enough, the director would definitely not dare to disrespect the face of Su Family Group’s Young Master.
"Xuanxuan, shall I take you there? My car is parked right at the door; it will be quick,"
People who couldn’t compete with the young couple in contacting the hospital and the director were quick in their thinking too.
Playing the role of a driver wasn’t too bad either?
This was also an excellent opportunity to earn some credits.
"Xuanxuan, do you need me to help you over?"
"Xuanxuan, shall I carry you? I’m very strong. I usually can carry my husband while walking. You’re so thin; I wouldn’t need to exert much effort at all,"
"Xuanxuan..."
"Xuanxuan..."
...
Seeing everyone else showing concern for Jiang Xinxuan, those who hadn’t had the chance to speak were, of course, eager to make their presence felt.
Even though the tasks of contacting the director and driving had already been taken by others.
Even a woman who claimed to be a strongwoman was ready to carry Jiang Xinxuan off to the doctor.
Jiang Xinxuan hadn’t expected that simply because he felt a bit embarrassed and had slightly lowered his head, it would trigger such a big commotion.
Jiang Xinxuan looked helplessly towards his mother.
Jiang Xinxuan was thinking about how he had been so preoccupied chatting with Su Mu about the upcoming formal visit to Su Mu’s grandfather and parents that he had forgotten to mention his uncle’s "special feelings" for the Su Family to Su Mu.
That’s why Jiang Xinxuan suddenly lost the smile on his face.
Would someone still be beaming with smiles when feeling embarrassed towards the person they owed an explanation to?
The answer is, of course, impossible.
It’s just that Jiang Xinxuan hadn’t anticipated his Mom would misinterpret this small gesture.
If it had just been a question from Bai Mingyun, Jiang Xinxuan wouldn’t have felt so embarrassed.
All he needed to do was explain to his mother that he wasn’t feeling unwell.
Ironically, because everyone’s attention was on Jiang Xinxuan, the girlfriend of Su Family’s young master, and Bai Mingyun, the future mother-in-law of Su Family’s young master.
So, a very normal question between Bai Mingyun and her daughter was infinitely interpreted by others.
Looking at the crowd gazing at her with concern, there was even a slightly plump woman who seemed ready to carry Jiang Xinxuan on her back.
Jiang Xinxuan took two steps back with some fear.
Of course, they were very small steps.
Because of everyone’s enthusiasm, the space left for Jiang Xinxuan was not very large.
There wasn’t enough space for Jiang Xinxuan to take many steps back either.
"Everyone, don’t crowd so much. Give Xuanxuan and Wanting some space. Wanting is pregnant now and can’t suffer the slightest bump."
Bai Mingyun, seeing her daughter’s pleading eyes and glancing at the relatives who now seemed eager to "take action," helplessly spoke out to stop the relatives’ enthusiastic behavior.
Since these were close relatives of the Bai Family, everyone knew that Bai Wanting was currently pregnant.
Bai Mingyun openly said it because she knew it wasn’t a secret and didn’t need to be concealed.
Besides, what Bai Mingyun said was very important.
Given everyone’s eagerness, even if Xuanxuan herself didn’t feel unwell, she would have been squeezed into discomfort by the crowd.
Not to mention Bai Wanting, who was pregnant.
Could Bai Wanting withstand such crowding?
Bai Mingyun was somewhat afraid that in the end, it wouldn’t be her daughter but her niece who would end up in the hospital.
"Xiao Wu, don’t call just yet. I don’t think there’s a big issue with Xuanxuan; she might just be tired."
Bai Mingyun, seeing a young woman who claimed to be related to the dean of the city hospital already taking out her cellphone and preparing to dial, hurriedly stopped Xiao Wu’s action.
The situation hadn’t been clarified, and it was turning out to be a huge commotion.
What if Xuanxuan had no issues at all? Wouldn’t it seem like an overreaction?
Moreover, Su Mu had already entered the villa and was unaware of what was happening outside.
If this was a misunderstanding, Bai Mingyun certainly did not want to disturb Su Mu.
After all, if Xuanxuan was not in serious trouble and became upset due to the fuss, wouldn’t that make her appear too sensitive in Su Mu’s eyes?
"But Xuanxuan..."
Xiao Wu felt this was her best opportunity to shine; not everyone had the chance to claim a relative in the dean of the city hospital.
Moreover, Xiao Wu’s connection to the dean of the city hospital was not very distant.
With the backing of the young master of the Su Family, Xiao Wu was not worried that her call would be rejected.
But before Xiao Wu could demonstrate her social advantage, Bai Mingyun interrupted her, and Xiao Wu was naturally reluctant to accept it.
Of course, no matter how reluctant Xiao Wu felt inside, she couldn’t show a trace of dissatisfaction on her face.
What was the purpose of Xiao Wu’s eager display?
Wasn’t it to curry favor with Jiang Xinxuan and her daughter?
Now that it was Jiang Xinxuan’s mother, Bai Mingyun, who had spoken to interrupt her, Xiao Wu had no choice but to comply.
Xiao Wu could only transform her inner discontent into concern for Jiang Xinxuan, hoping Bai Mingyun would change her mind because of it.
That way, Xiao Wu would have the chance to continue expressing her care for Jiang Xinxuan.
"I’m not feeling ill at all, nor do I feel uncomfortable,"
Jiang Xinxuan, who had been called out, finally had the chance to speak.
Jiang Xinxuan immediately made it clear that he really didn’t need to go to the hospital.
After all, Jiang Xinxuan was displaying such an expression because he was feeling guilty.
This had nothing to do with whether his body was comfortable or not.
Of course, Jiang Xinxuan also knew that even if he went to the hospital, they wouldn’t find any problems.
Because it wasn’t actually a physical issue, it was all psychological for Jiang Xinxuan.
"Xiao Wu, stop making that call, Xuanxuan doesn’t feel unwell and doesn’t need to go to the hospital,"
"Everybody, no need to be so enthusiastic. Make some space and let Xuanxuan and Wanting go inside,"
Bai Mingyun, although he himself didn’t know why Xuanxuan’s complexion had changed just now,
But since Xuanxuan himself said he wasn’t feeling unwell,
And with the crowd squeezing in like this, Bai Mingyun knew it wasn’t the time to question his daughter right now.
Bai Mingyun felt that as long as it wasn’t an issue with Xuanxuan’s health, it would be better to wait until they were alone to ask him privately.
If he were to ask Xuanxuan right now, Bai Mingyun knew that the people around them would definitely bombard them with a medley of concerns.
If this were to continue, it would surely be a considerable waste of time.
If Su Mu and Allen, who had already entered the villa, didn’t see anyone else coming in, they would certainly find it odd.
If Su Mu came out later and saw such a chaotic scene, Bai Mingyun couldn’t even begin to guess what Su Mu’s reaction might be.
"But Xuanxuan’s complexion really doesn’t look good, maybe we should still get it checked out, so everyone can be at ease,"
"Aunt Yun, the dean of the city hospital is my cousin. Our families have always had a good relationship, you don’t have to worry about bothering my cousin,"
This was a great opportunity to shine, and Xiao Wu certainly didn’t want to let it slip by.
Besides, Xiao Wu considered this to be a display of his concern for Jiang Xinxuan.
Moreover, Xiao Wu hadn’t had the chance to properly explain his relationship with the dean of the city hospital before.
Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Wu proudly announced that the well-known dean of the city hospital was his cousin.
The important part was that Xiao Wu even mentioned that his family and his cousin’s family were very close.
The dean of the city hospital might not be much in a crowd of rich people,
But the key was that the position itself was somewhat special.
The dean of a hospital, after all, who could guarantee they wouldn’t need medical attention for minor ailments nowadays.
When the position of the dean of the city hospital was touted, it indeed carried some weight.
Only, Xiao Wu had forgotten that for the genuinely wealthy, the dean of a hospital really wasn’t anything special.
So, the connection Xiao Wu thought he could flaunt didn’t really cause much of a stir.
"Right, let’s take Xuanxuan for a checkup. It’s best if nothing is wrong, that way we all can have some peace of mind. I’ll go drive the car right now,"
The person who volunteered to be the driver, also sensing an opportunity to demonstrate his usefulness, joined in on the persuasion.
It wasn’t that they thought Xiao Wu’s cousin was that impressive.
The crux of the matter was that if one became the driver, wouldn’t that provide an additional chance to showcase oneself?
