Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 353 - 352: Ill Intentions
Chapter 353: Chapter 352: Ill Intentions
Experience trumps age, and this saying couldn’t be more accurate.
Huang Yuqin had foreseen the possibility of this situation arising even before Su Mu appeared at Xinghuan Entertainment.
So having He Qiya accompany her was essentially nipping those naive dreams of the young girls in the bud.
Not to mention, these girls still hoped to become superstars under the auspices of Xinghuan Entertainment.
Of course, it was impossible to offend the daughter of the big boss of one’s own company.
Plus, these starry-eyed girls were all pretty shrewd.
Just by assessing the handsome guy’s worth, everyone had already recognized the gap between him and themselves.
How could they risk offending the young miss by trying to "hit on" the handsome guy?
Not getting any meat but attracting a lot of problems is definitely not a good deal.
Let alone securing a future at Xinghuan Entertainment.
If they really "competed" with the young miss for a man, they probably couldn’t stay at Xinghuan Entertainment for a second longer.
Although it was obvious that there wasn’t any intimate interaction between the handsome guy and the young miss.
At most, the three of them stood there and exchanged a few words.
But everyone could clearly see the way He Qiya looked at the handsome guy.
Especially the girls, who were all too familiar with He Qiya’s admiring gaze.
That was the look of adoration.
The young miss adoring the handsome guy, how dared any of the girls come forward?
Just catching a glimpse of the handsome guy from a distance was quite a luxury for them.
Because stealing a few looks at the handsome guy without the young miss noticing was quite a challenge.
Since it was about finding someone, even though He Qiya had no idea what Four Eyes’ person of interest looked like.
Perhaps out of curiosity, He Qiya still looked around to see if any of the girls matched the characteristics Four Eyes had described.
The poor girls wanting to see the handsome guy had no idea the young miss was on a hunt for someone.
They thought the young miss was scanning to see if anyone was coveting the handsome guy.
As one would expect, it meant they could no longer stare openly at the handsome guy.
But the handsome guy’s attraction was so strong, if they couldn’t look openly, they all stole glances when the young miss wasn’t looking their way.
With such an angelic face, everyone had the same thought: if they didn’t look more now, they might never get the chance later.
He Qiya was momentarily troubled by Four Eyes’ question.
Honestly, He Qiya truly didn’t know if Xinghuan Entertainment had a girls’ talent show yesterday.
So He Qiya was unable to answer Four Eyes’ question.
She had heard Four Eyes’ analysis and felt there was some truth to it, so He Qiya found herself agreeing with Four Eyes’ perspective.
"Su Mu, should I ask the person in charge?"
"If there’s any information, I’ll take you to get it," informed He Qiya.
Four Eyes was truly resigned to He Qiya’s approach.
In the blink of an eye, he was thoroughly ignored.
Four Eyes even had a moment of delusion—was He Qiya really talking to him just now?
Why was it that when a conversation was going smoothly, he once again seemed invisible to He Qiya, with only Su Mu in her eyes?
Of course, Four Eyes had now become self-aware.
He no longer indulged his chatty nature to inquire further.
Four Eyes knew that if he really persisted in questioning He Qiya, he’d only end up embarrassing himself.
He Qiya’s icy Four Eyes was also experienced.
"Okay, Four Eyes and I will wait for you here."
Su Mu felt that Xinghuan Entertainment was He Qiya’s family’s company.
It was fairly convenient for He Qiya to find the person in charge; there was no need for him and Four Eyes to follow along.
"Alright, I’ll be right back."
As if afraid that Su Mu would leave while she was gone, He Qiya quickly made her promise.
Su Mu nodded, as he wasn’t familiar with Xinghuan Entertainment. Could he just go up on his own?
Seeing Su Mu nod, He Qiya acted as if she had received an important promise.
He Qiya knew Su Mu wouldn’t leave while she went to find someone.
But He Qiya didn’t slow down because of this.
In He Qiya’s heart, she didn’t want to be apart from Su Mu for even a moment.
Of course, once Su Mu’s friend found the person they were looking for, He Qiya would have to face reality.
"Look, Miss He has left."
"What’s going on? Miss He left the handsome guy alone?"
"What do you mean, ’handsome guy alone’? Are handsome guys the only things your eyes can hold? The bespectacled boy next to the handsome guy also takes up quite a bit of space."
"Aside from the handsome guy, everyone else can be ignored."
"That’s true; my eyes can only hold handsome guys too."
"Why are you two talking about this nonsense? Isn’t Miss He’s departure a perfect opportunity?"
"Should we go over and start a conversation with the handsome guy, maybe get his contact information or something?"
"I don’t dare. If Miss He finds out, I probably won’t have to wait until tomorrow to be swept out the door by Xinghuan Entertainment."
"I don’t dare either. Who dares to snatch away Miss He’s man?"
"Right, why are you encouraging us? Why don’t you go get the handsome guy’s contact information yourself?"
The two girls who had been focusing on the handsome guy realized that the girl who had been egging them on clearly had no good intentions.
They were all signed by Xinghuan Entertainment and were essentially competitors.
If, because of the handsome guy, the two girls who had been speaking were fired by Xinghuan Entertainment,
it would mean two fewer competitors for everyone else.
"If you’re not going, that’s fine. I only came over to remind you because you two kept staring at the handsome guy with such pitiable looks."
"Good intentions taken for sheep’s lungs."
The girl whose plot was exposed muttered a few words and left.
If her attempt to incite others to "snatch" Miss He’s man got back to the young mistress,
the girl knew she wouldn’t be able to escape the consequences.
Thus, she didn’t plan to flaunt any verbal superiority with those two.
Since her goal wasn’t achieved, she promptly left.
"What a person, how can she be so malicious?"
"We need to be more cautious of her in the future; who knows where she might try to set a trap for us next."
"Yeah, never mind her for now. I’d rather take a few more looks at my handsome guy while Miss He is away."
"Yeah, just to feast my eyes. But I’m curious why the handsome guy is at Xinghuan Entertainment? Will we have the chance to see the handsome guy again in the future?"
"How would I know? If I did, I wouldn’t be sticking around on the first floor."
The girl pointed upwards with her finger.
The more famous contracted artists generally wouldn’t stay on the first floor; they had their own specialized training and relaxation rooms upstairs.
The girl’s companion nodded in agreement, it really was that simple.
Actually, among so many girls on the first floor, how could only two or three of them be watching Su Mu?
Everyone was just gathered in small groups, quietly discussing among themselves.
A glance over, and nothing stood out.
Nobody was foolish, if they all huddled together staring at a handsome guy, wouldn’t that draw too much attention?
If Miss He found out, no one would have the guts to face the consequences.
So, Su Mu hadn’t noticed these things at all.
And as for Four Eyes, there’s even less need to mention him.
Four Eyes was somewhat scatterbrained by nature, plus all his attention now was focused on whether or not he could find his mystery girl.
As for those glances thrown his way, Su Mu completely ignored them.
Four Eyes didn’t even notice to begin with.
Besides, people weren’t staring at Four Eyes anyway, so it’s normal that he felt nothing.
"Su Mu, do you think I can find information about the girl today?"
Four Eyes felt that finding someone directly at Xinghuan Entertainment was nearly impossible.
Now, Four Eyes just hoped that his mystery girl had left some personal information at Xinghuan Entertainment.
Then Four Eyes could follow these clues to find her.
Four Eyes wasn’t in a rush because of the bold proclamations he made to his friends.
For Four Eyes, the mystery girl was the first one who had captured his heart.
Whether they could have any further development was directly related to whether Four Eyes’s first heartbeat would be a first love or an unrequited love, two fundamentally different things.
"We’ve already come to Xinghuan Entertainment to look for her, whether you can find her or not is all down to your luck, kid."
Su Mu had done all he could to help, but the outcome between Four Eyes and his mystery girl wasn’t something Su Mu could control.
Even if Su Mu had the system, this god-like existence, there was no way for him to sign in and obtain information about Four Eye’s mystery girl.
Su Mu had also mobilized his personal connections to assist Four Eyes.
Su Mu felt that doing his best was enough, fate also played a significant role.
"Su Mu, can’t you offer me some encouragement?"
Four Eyes felt a bit dejected, why was finding a girlfriend that caught his eye so difficult?
Then looking at Su Mu, Four Eyes felt the gap between people was truly immense.
Even before knowing Su Mu’s true identity, Four Eyes’s charm with women couldn’t compare to Su Mu’s.
In fact, Su Mu had more appeal than any of the male students at Huadong International Middle School.
Keep in mind, back then Su Mu was just a kid from an ordinary working-class family.
Amongst the group of wealthy lords and ladies, Su Mu could genuinely be considered poor.
But this didn’t affect Su Mu’s personal charm at all.
Hadn’t even Jiang Xinxuan, a School Beauty and academic powerhouse, fallen for the man in the suit trousers?
After Su Mu reclaimed his identity, it went without saying.
Just going out to play a game of football, and someone as stunning as Xia Shuya took the initiative to come to him.
Four Eyes wasn’t foolish either, seeing He Qiya’s different attitude towards Su Mu, Four Eyes felt that He Qiya’s feelings for Su Mu were definitely more than the typical friendship between children of family friends.
Could a young girl’s feelings for an unbelievably attractive young man be merely simple friendship?
Four Eyes certainly didn’t believe so.
Not to mention He Qiya’s behavior had blatantly shown Four Eyes that Su Mu was the only one in her eyes.
Thinking about all this made Four Eyes feel even sadder.
"Su Mu, why is it so hard for me to find a girlfriend?"
"Look at you, it was so easy for Jiang Xinxuan to become your girlfriend."
"And then there was the cheerleader beauty, and now even..."
Four Eyes was about to say that even He Qiya evidently had feelings for Su Mu.
Before Four Eyes could finish his sentence, a loud-voiced man hurried over.
Of course, it was because the man was talking as he ran that people noticed his booming voice.
"Handsome, handsome, is it really you? When I walked in just now, I thought I was seeing things."
"I can’t believe it’s really you."
"This is great, handsome, do you know? I’ve been looking for you for a long time, and today I’ve finally found you."
The man ran excitedly up to Su Mu.
Looking at the man, it seemed as though he was very familiar with Su Mu.
A bit like long-lost old friends reuniting.
Seeing the man who had stopped in front of him, Su Mu was puzzled. Did he know this person?
The man appeared to have been running all the way here; his panting was unmistakable.
Su Mu thought carefully but was sure he did not know the man.
Even if the man was excited, Su Mu was certain he had never seen him before.
If the man was as enthusiastic as he acted, Su Mu thought he would at least have some impression of him.
"Su Mu, do you know him?"
Four Eyes observed the indifferent Su Mu and the excited man.
The contrast was so stark that Four Eyes couldn’t overlook it even if he wanted to.
Four Eyes thought the man seemed to know Su Mu, but why did Su Mu look like he had no recollection of him?
"I don’t know him."
He answered calmly, not feeling that he would hurt the man’s pride.
In Su Mu’s opinion, the man had definitely mistaken him for someone else. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
If they had only met once, the man wouldn’t be so worked up.
And if they were really familiar, Su Mu wouldn’t have no recollection of the man.
"Look, Wang Dao is talking to the handsome guy."
"I saw it, I saw it. Does Wang Dao know the handsome guy, or is the handsome guy really a new artist signed by Xinghuan Entertainment?"
"I think it’s very likely. Otherwise, why would Wang Dao approach him?"
"Look how brightly Wang Dao is smiling at the handsome guy. He’s usually so stingy with even a small smile when he deals with us, not to mention this kind of apologetic smile."
"Haven’t you seen who the handsome guy came with?"
"The young lady personally escorted the handsome guy here; how could Wang Dao use the same attitude he has towards us to receive him?"
"That’s true, handsome guy’s starting point is not on the same level as ours."
"Forget it, forget it, these things aren’t important. What’s important is if the handsome guy really does sign with Xinghuan Entertainment, then I’ll get to see him often."
"Me too, me too. As long as I can often see the handsome guy, I’m satisfied."
"Aren’t you afraid of the young lady now? Not afraid of being kicked out of the company?"
"I’m not competing with the young lady for the handsome guy. I’m just admiring him from afar. Surely the young lady isn’t that petty, right?"
"Besides, is the young lady going to accompany the handsome guy every day in the future? Wouldn’t that make the young lady his agent?"
Because of the loud-voiced man’s arrival, the girls who had been covertly watching Su Mu began to whisper amongst themselves again.
