Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?

Chapter 145: Chapter 144: Innate Arrogance

Jiang Xinxuan remained silent, which was taken as an acquiescence to the female classmate’s statement.

"The photos Su Mu took for you?"

It was still Li Feifei.

Regardless, Li Feifei had made up her mind not to believe Jiang Xinxuan’s words.

Not to mention whether Su Mu had the photography skills to begin with.

Bear in mind, the quality of the photos Jiang Xinxuan posted on her Moments.

They couldn’t possibly be taken without the standards of a top-class master.

Not to mention Su Mu was just a student who had recently graduated from high school.

Li Feifei thought Jiang Xinxuan was not even bothering to draft her lies.

Moreover, Li Feifei believed, if it was really Su Mu who took those photos, why had Jiang Xinxuan been dodging the question and refusing to admit it?

There must be something fishy going on!

Li Feifei felt like Jiang Xinxuan was cornered and used Su Mu as a shield.

"Jiang Xinxuan, you think you’re a top student, that you’re smarter than the rest, right?"

"If it was really Su Mu who took the photos for you, then why are you hiding it?"

"Is there something unspeakable about it?"

Li Feifei didn’t know where her confidence came from, and she was being aggressively confrontational.

It was as if she, Li Feifei, was standing on a moral high ground, judging Jiang Xinxuan.

"There is really nothing unspeakable about it."

Seeing Li Feifei’s arrogance, Jiang Xinxuan felt it was time to put out her fire.

"It’s just that Su Mu said he only took photos for me."

"I said it that way to avoid making everyone feel bad."

Looking around, Jiang Xinxuan adopted a demeanor that she originally wanted to protect everyone’s dignity, but now she was forced by Li Feifei to tell the truth.

The girls surrounding Jiang Xinxuan had a change in their expressions.

Only taking photos for Jiang Xinxuan?

This did match Su Mu’s style.

In the past, when Su Mu was more low-key, he was courteous to classmates, but never overly enthusiastic.

Not to mention, now that Su Mu had publicly revealed his identity as the Crown Prince of the Su Family.

That inherent pride made these classmates dare not aspire to more.

So it turned out that Jiang Xinxuan kept silent to save everyone’s face.

The way everyone looked at Jiang Xinxuan changed again, and there was a trace of gratitude in their eyes.

Turning their heads and looking at Li Feifei, however, turned into resentment.

Originally, if Jiang Xinxuan had kept silent, everyone would have let it slide as it was.

It was Li Feifei who insisted on clearing things up.

Now, alright, everyone knew the name of the photographer.

But who would dare to ask Su Mu to take their photos?

Jiang Xinxuan had made it clear what Su Mu’s stance was.

Su Mu only took photos for Jiang Xinxuan.

Everyone felt that it was Li Feifei who made them lose face on this last day of high school.

Li Feifei naturally saw the hostility from everyone towards her.

She moved her lips but in the end didn’t say a word.

She turned around and went back to her seat.

Her attempt at stirring up trouble had failed and Li Feifei now felt like she had shot herself in the foot.

Not only did she fail to damage the relationship between Jiang Xinxuan and Su Mu, but she also made herself the target of resentment among the female classmates.

...

Outside the principal’s office

"Su Mu, go in."

The homeroom teacher led Su Mu all the way to the door of the principal’s office.

The homeroom teacher still didn’t know Su Mu’s true identity and hadn’t shared any news with Su Mu during the walk.

Thinking of giving Su Mu a surprise when the time came.

"Headmaster, Su Mu has arrived."

The door to the office wasn’t closed, and the homeroom teacher led Su Mu straight in.

"Ah, Student Su Mu is here? Come in, come in, quickly come inside."

The headmaster had always been aware of this student, Su Mu.

After all, he was the one responsible for the impressive grades at Huadong International School, not to mention Su Mu’s striking appearance that was impossible to overlook.

It was just that the headmaster had never had any private contact with Su Mu, so they were still somewhat strangers to each other.

Upon seeing the handsome young man following the homeroom teacher into the room, the headmaster enthusiastically stood up.

Su Mu noticed that there were four other people in the headmaster’s office.

Unsure of their identity, but they all stood up along with the headmaster.

Could these four people be here for him?

Su Mu felt that he was almost a graduate and the headmaster really shouldn’t need to see him, right?

On his way here, Su Mu could sense that the homeroom teacher was still unaware of his true identity.

So, certainly, the headmaster wouldn’t know either.

"Su Mu, these two are Director Huang and Teacher Zhu from Z University’s admissions office."

"And these two are Director Yu and Teacher Xia from S University’s admissions office."

Su Mu had guessed correctly, and the headmaster introduced the other four people standing in the office.

Being from the admissions offices of the universities, it was only natural that they were here for him.

After greetings were exchanged, the headmaster invited Su Mu and the others to sit down together.

The headmaster was clearly very happy today.

Everyone knew that Z University and S University were among the most famous universities in the country.

Representatives from the admissions offices of these two universities had come to the school on the day students were filling out their college applications, specifically asking for Su Mu.

Of course, their purpose was self-evident.

The headmaster knew that this was a moment for Huadong International School to shine.

"Student Su Mu, I am Director Huang from Z University. What major are you thinking of applying for in college?"

A plump, middle-aged man was the first to speak.

"Finance."

As for his major, Su Mu had his answer ready and replied very smoothly.

"Finance? Our finance program at Z University is among the top in the country. I wonder if you’ve considered applying to Z University?"

Upon hearing Su Mu mention "finance," a smile instantly appeared on Director Huang’s face.

It seemed the teachers’ discussions at the school had been very accurate.

As the top science student, Su Mu would certainly choose a science-related major.

Director Huang felt his chances of winning had just increased.

"Student Su Mu, I am Director Yu from S University. Our finance program is also nationally renowned. You might want to consider applying for our finance program at S University."

Without waiting for Director Huang to speak again, another tall, thin man also extended an olive branch to Su Mu.

So, they were here to poach talent.

Su Mu understood as he observed the two eager university directors looking at him.

"Student Su Mu, if you come to Z University, we can offer you a full tuition waiver."

Facing competition, Director Huang immediately threw out bait.

"Student Su Mu, not only can we at S University offer you a full tuition waiver, but we can also provide you with an additional scholarship of one hundred thousand yuan."

Director Yu had chatted with the headmaster of the international school in private.

He knew that Su Mu had attended the international school based on his academic performance and that his family’s financial situation was average.

Therefore, Director Yu thought his offer was more attractive.

One hundred thousand yuan in scholarship?

Su Mu curled the corner of his lips.

If it had been in the past, indeed, it would have been quite tempting.

In the beginning, Su Mu worked part-time to earn some money for college living expenses to relieve his family’s financial pressure.

But now, for Su Mu who lived in a castle, was chauffeured in luxury cars, and had a large conglomerate waiting for him to inherit, it really wasn’t tempting at all.
