Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 416 - 415: Waiting for Su Mu’s Attitude

"See you tomorrow, bye."

Jiang Xinxuan took the initiative and planted a kiss before she got out of the car.

For Jiang Xinxuan, it was just a farewell kiss.

Given the current relationship between Jiang Xinxuan and Su Mu, there really was no need for any shyness.

After Jiang Xinxuan got out of the car, she didn’t hurry towards the villa complex.

Standing next to the black Ferrari, Jiang Xinxuan waved at Su Mu.

"Drive slowly on the road."

Even though she knew Su Mu was a skilled driver, Jiang Xinxuan still couldn’t help but express her concern.

"Okay, go back."

Since it was getting late, Su Mu waved his hand, gesturing for Xuanxuan to head home early.

Fortunately, the security measures at Yulong Lake Villa were top-notch.

Now that Xuanxuan had reached the entrance of Yulong Lake Villa, Su Mu didn’t need to worry about his girlfriend’s safety.

"Mhm, you go ahead."

Jiang Xinxuan insisted on watching Su Mu’s car leave before her own.

For Jiang Xinxuan, she only had to walk a few steps to get home.

While Su Mu still had to drive for a while before reaching his abode.

There was no need to even think about which distance was shorter or farther.

Naturally, Jiang Xinxuan felt it was better for Su Mu to drive off first.

"Alright."

Seeing his girlfriend’s insistence, Su Mu didn’t dismiss it and simply stepped on the gas.

"Vroom..."

The black Ferrari quickly disappeared from the entrance of Yulong Lake Villa.

Once Jiang Xinxuan could no longer even see the shadow of Su Mu’s car, she turned around and entered Yulong Lake Villa.

Just like last night, she noticed the bright lights at her home before she even reached her villa’s door.

It was because Jiang Xinxuan returned much earlier than last night.

Additionally, her parents had found out about their daughter dating Su Mu, the young master from the Su Family Corporation, last night.

Jiang Xinxuan felt that her parents’ attitude from yesterday showed they supported her relationship with Su Mu.

Therefore, even if the whole family was waiting for her tonight, Jiang Xinxuan didn’t feel the slightest worry or fear.

This time shouldn’t be too late for a dating couple to return home, right?

Jiang Xinxuan remembered when she and Su Mu left the pedestrian street, there were still many people who hadn’t.

By that measure, she really did come home early.

This time with no housekeeper waiting at the villa’s door, Jiang Xinxuan punched in the code on the lock and opened the door.

"Ha ha ha, that’s best, tomorrow I’ll take Wanting and Allen back to Huangtong City."

"Sister-in-law, do you need me to drop you off?"

"No need, we have a driver. You and Maohua have been troubled enough these past few days. It’s all because Wanting didn’t think things through."

"Young people are all the same, sister. Has big brother completely given in?"

"Of course, your big brother is all bark but soft at heart. He can’t bear to see his own daughter getting married with a big belly, can he?"

"Big brother still dotes on Wanting. Wanting, after you and Allen go back, you can’t make your father angry again, you know?"

"I know, auntie. How dare I provoke my dad at this point?"

Jiang Xinxuan was changing his shoes at the front door when he heard a series of lively voices coming from the living room.

Without thinking too much, Jiang Xinxuan knew it was his aunt who had arrived.

He was, of course, very familiar with his aunt’s voice.

After listening for a while, Jiang Xinxuan understood everything.

It turned out that his uncle had finally relented and agreed to his cousin Bai Wanting and Allen’s marriage.

His aunt had come to Huadong City this time specifically to take his cousin Bai Wanting and Allen back with her.

Of course, due to face-saving reasons, his uncle did not come in person.

However, Jiang Xinxuan knew that his cousin wouldn’t mind this.

For his cousin Bai Wanting and Allen, the fact that their uncle had consented to their marriage in such a short period was already an unexpected development.

They must be too happy to care about whether their father had come to pick them up in person or not.

"Auntie, thank you. If you hadn’t called to persuade my dad today, his anger would not have subsided so quickly,"

When Jiang Xinxuan walked into the living room, he saw his cousin standing beside his mother, thanking her very earnestly.

Jiang Xinxuan realized that his mother had called his uncle at noon.

He hadn’t left the house at that time, so he was aware of it.

It seemed that his uncle had relented after his mother’s phone call.

Otherwise, the time Jiang Xinxuan spent out was not that long.

His aunt would not have been able to travel from Huangtong City to Huadong City within the few hours Jiang Xinxuan was out on a date with Su Mu.

Jiang Xinxuan knew that his aunt must have rushed to Huadong City as soon as his uncle had given the green light.

"Mingyun, I really have to thank you this time. With my brother’s temperament, had it not been for your call at noon, who knows how many days this matter would have dragged on,"

Jiang Xinxuan saw his aunt expressing her gratitude to his mother with a very serious demeanor.

Not for any other reason but surely because his aunt was deeply concerned about her own daughter’s feelings.

Although it was a matter of time before his uncle gave in, it was certainly better to have it happen a day sooner.

It wasn’t reasonable for Bai Wanting to keep staying at the Jiang Family’s home.

After all, Bai Wanting and Allen’s wedding was supposed to take place in the Bai Family in Huangtong City.

So, the sooner Bai Mingqi relented, the sooner the Bai Family could start preparing openly and aboveboard.

"We’re all family, no need for such polite words,"

Bai Mingyun patted her sister-in-law’s hand, clearly showing the close relationship between the two sisters-in-law.

"By the way, where’s Xuanxuan? I’ve been here for quite a while, and I haven’t seen him yet?"

Jiang Xinxuan looked at his aunt with a slight smile.

It seemed his aunt had been so preoccupied with discussing his cousin’s matter that only now had she realized she hadn’t seen him, a very much alive and present person.

However, Jiang Xinxuan wasn’t upset.

His aunt had rushed over from Huangtong City mainly for his cousin’s wedding matters.

Therefore, it was normal for his aunt to focus all her attention initially on this matter.

Jiang Xinxuan didn’t feel that this indicated his aunt didn’t care about him.

"Xuanxuan...,"

Bai Mingyun was about to speak when Jiang Xinxuan walked over.

"Auntie, I’m back, when did you get here?"

Jiang Xinxuan had been close to his cousin Bai Wanting since childhood and also had a very good relationship with his aunt.

Taking quick steps, Jiang Xinxuan approached his aunt.

"Xuanxuan, why are you back so late? Auntie has been here for quite a while," He Jingfen, Bai Wanting’s mother and Jiang Xinxuan’s aunt, asked her niece with concern.

Looking at the time, it was indeed late.

In He Jingfen’s memory, her niece had always been very well-behaved, so why had she come home so late?

Moreover, Bai Mingyun and Jiang Maohua seemed very calm, showing no signs of blame.

It seems this wasn’t Xuanxuan’s first time coming home late?

Since Bai Wanting’s matter had been resolved, He Jingfen was now very keen to take an interest in Xuanxuan’s affairs.

"Xuanxuan, you don’t have a boyfriend, do you? Is that why you’re coming home so late?"

Possibly influenced by her own daughter’s situation, He Jingfen unexpectedly steered the conversation towards relationships.

What does it mean to hit the nail on the head?

That’s precisely what was happening now.

For He Jingfen, who had just arrived at the Jiang family home tonight, there hadn’t been an opportunity to tell her about Xuanxuan’s romantic involvement.

Yet, He Jingfen managed to pinpoint the issue in one guess.

Jiang Xinxuan wondered whether she should praise her aunt for her intelligence.

Or should she say that her aunt, influenced by her cousin, feared any issue might lead to thoughts of romance?

"Mom, do you have clairvoyance or something?"

Embarrassed to say anything herself, Bai Wanting was the first to exclaim.

Bai Wanting felt that the news of Xuanxuan’s relationship was something her aunt and uncle had only learned about last night.

Since Bai Wanting had always been at her aunt’s house, she was certain that after her mother arrived, neither her aunt nor her uncle had mentioned anything about Xuanxuan dating.

Because there simply hadn’t been a chance, right?

As soon as Bai Wanting’s mother walked in, she started talking about how her father had finally acquiesced.

Initially, He Jingfen didn’t even notice Xuanxuan wasn’t home.

When He Jingfen entered, she thought Xuanxuan might have been taking a bath in her room or something.

But as the conversation went on and became more joyous, He Jingfen completely forgot that she hadn’t seen Xuanxuan since she entered.

Therefore, Bai Wanting found it miraculous how her mother could immediately guess that Xuanxuan was out late due to a romantic involvement.

Could it not be that Xuanxuan was just out playing with friends?

And this hour, it wasn’t too late, was it?

Anyway, Bai Wanting was somewhat puzzled.

"What clairvoyance or whatever are you talking about? You’re about to be a mom; can’t you stop being so dramatic?"

Annoyed, He Jingfen glared at Bai Wanting, feeling that her daughter, who was soon to be a mother, didn’t seem to have the bearing of one at all.

"Mom, never mind me, how did you know Xuanxuan was dating?"

Not wanting her mother to shift the focus to herself, Bai Wanting was concerned about how her mother so astutely guessed Xuanxuan’s situation.

You see, even before Bai Wanting met Su Mu, she had no idea her well-behaved cousin already had a boyfriend.

So, Bai Wanting believed her mother could not have possibly heard anything either.

How could her mother have found out about Xuanxuan’s first relationship?

"Is it really that hard to figure out?"

Seemingly thinking her daughter had become dull, He Jingfen gave Bai Wanting a discontented look.

Although there’s a saying that one is foolish for three years during pregnancy, He Jingfen felt she and Mingyun were quite normal during their pregnancies.

Why did it seem like her daughter had to prove the old adage to be true?

Before Bai Wanting could respond, He Jingfen revealed the basis for her speculation.

"Our Xuanxuan is so beautiful and has such a good personality that there will definitely be lots of boys who like her."

"Besides, Xuanxuan has already graduated from high school and is about to come of age. Isn’t it very normal for her to start dating?"

He Jingfen held her niece’s hand, feeling more and more that Xuanxuan was obedient and well-behaved, unlike her own daughter Bai Wanting, who had been stubborn and troublesome since childhood.

Due to differences in their personalities, in some aspects, Jiang Xinxuan was more likely to be favored by the elders.

He Jingfen was no exception; she truly liked her niece Jiang Xinxuan from the bottom of her heart.

"Unlike you, who have never given me a moment of peace since you were little."

With the comparison, He Jingfen felt even more that her own daughter wasn’t as likable as Xuanxuan.

However, seeing that her daughter was also about to become a mother, and with Allen standing beside them,

He Jingfen didn’t continue her remarks, sparing Bai Wanting some dignity.

Bai Wanting secretly stuck out her tongue, knowing all too well that her mother would target her.

Bai Wanting would never broach the subject herself, no matter what.

Bai Wanting knew that her unplanned pregnancy had surely caused quite a few conflicts between her mother and father.

The reason was simple: He Jingfen felt that since the deed was done, all that was left was to support them.

Alas, Bai Mingqi was too stubborn, and the couple had indeed had their fair share of disagreements over Bai Wanting’s situation.

Bai Wanting knew her mother didn’t mean to speak ill of her.

After all, Xuanxuan had always been the favorite among the elders, a fact Bai Wanting was well aware of and didn’t feel anything about.

The elders simply preferred Xuanxuan’s gentle personality; it didn’t mean they treated Bai Wanting or Jiang Xinxuan any differently.

Bai Wanting never felt that she was being wronged.

"Xuanxuan, when did you start dating? How come your aunt didn’t know a thing about it?"

"And your mom, really, such a big deal as Xuanxuan dating, and she didn’t even drop a hint? Is the secrecy that tight?"

Seeing her daughter wisely keeping quiet, He Jingfen shifted her attention back to her niece.

Owing to her concern for Xuanxuan, He Jingfen even began to resent her sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, don’t wrong me. I only found out last night about Xuanxuan’s relationship."

"I was planning to tell you after sorting out Wanting’s situation, but you guessed it all of a sudden."

Bai Mingyun waved her hand, indicating she wouldn’t take the blame for this.

If Xuanxuan didn’t even tell her own parents about her relationship, how could Bai Mingyun have had the chance to inform her sister-in-law? freeweɓnovel.cøm

Even after Bai Mingyun learned about it last night, since Bai Wanting’s wedding was the pressing matter at hand, Bai Mingyun naturally didn’t have time to mention Xuanxuan’s relationship to her sister-in-law.

Another very important point was that Xuanxuan hadn’t made it clear whether she would bring Su Mu home.

Bai Mingyun knew it wasn’t that Xuanxuan didn’t want to; it was more likely that Xuanxuan hadn’t yet sought Su Mu’s opinion.

Therefore, Bai Mingyun thought it was somewhat premature to publicly announce Xuanxuan’s relationship with Su Mu now.

After all, Su Mu’s status was there for all to see.

If things didn’t go well, it could make people think that the Jiang Family was trying to climb up the social ladder through their daughter to reach the Su Family.

Without comparing to the Su Family, the Jiang Family’s circumstances were quite solid.

But if the Su Corporation were brought into the picture, it truly felt like they weren’t on the same level.

Saying that Jiang Xinxuan was marrying up to Su Mu would not be an exaggeration at all.

But in the end, no matter whose daughter in Huadong City was to date Su Mu, wouldn’t they all be marrying up?

Bai Mingyun felt that given the Jiang Family’s background and Xuanxuan’s good looks, she was a good match for the young master of the Su Corporation.

Now, everything was waiting on Su Mu’s attitude.
