Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?

Chapter 206: Chapter 205: Kung Fu Is Still Good

A few hundred meters away from an amusement park, at a crossroad, Su Mu stopped the car.

There was heavy traffic here, and it was also easier to hail a taxi.

"Su Mu, thank you for today. I had a great time," He Qiya sincerely thanked Su Mu.

These were her heartfelt words.

With Su Mu’s company, He Qiya felt her eighteenth birthday was particularly meaningful.

Even though it was just the two of them celebrating together.

But in He Qiya’s heart, it was even more grand and memorable than the birthday party her parents threw for her.

"It’s nothing. In fact, you should get in touch with your old friends more," with the intention of advising He Qiya, Su Mu added another line.

"I will, drive carefully on the road," He Qiya didn’t know that Su Mu had been asked by her mother and assigned a task by Aunt Qin.

He Qiya naively thought that Su Mu just didn’t like her cold demeanor and wanted her to change.

She felt that, even if it was just to make Su Mu happy, she had to try harder to take that step forward.

Now, He Qiya wholeheartedly wanted to return to how she used to be.

Su Mu nodded, acknowledging He Qiya’s concern for him.

Knowing that this was not a spot where they could park, He Qiya unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car.

"Bye-bye"

Waving at Su Mu, He Qiya stood by the roadside.

Without lingering, Su Mu pressed the accelerator and the yellow Ferrari 812 sped away.

"Su Mu, bye-bye."

He Qiya muttered to herself another goodbye to the disappearing silhouette of the Ferrari.

Only when the yellow Ferrari 812 couldn’t be seen at all did He Qiya retract her gaze.

Seeing a taxi with the light on coming by.

He Qiya hailed it, got in, gave her home address, and prepared to head back.

"Miss, where are you heading?"

The taxi driver asked uncertainly.

He Qiya thought the driver hadn’t heard her clearly and repeated her address.

Unexpectedly, the driver still didn’t start driving immediately but looked at He Qiya very seriously through the rearview mirror for a moment.

Just when He Qiya thought the driver was acting weird and was about to get out and take a different taxi, the driver finally spoke leisurely.

"Miss, it’s my first time taking a passenger to that place."

"That’s known as the wealthy district of Huadong City."

"People from there either drive their own luxury cars or have personal drivers to pick them up; who would ever need to take a taxi?"

"Didn’t your driver come to pick you up, miss?"

The driver had noticed while looking at He Qiya.

Her dress and manners obviously belonged to a wealthy person.

She wasn’t someone who should be taking a taxi, right?

He Qiya hadn’t expected that simply taking a taxi would lead to so much chatter.

But it seemed that the driver wasn’t wrong either.

He Qiya thought about it. Aside from the years abroad when she took taxis, it appeared that this was indeed her first time taking a taxi in her own country.

"I came here to have fun with a friend, and we didn’t bring a car."

"My friend had something come up and had to leave early," He Qiya thus provided an explanation for why she was taking a taxi.

He Qiya had no intention of explaining herself at first.

Whether or not she took a taxi didn’t seem to have anything to do with anyone else, right?

But recalling that Su Mu hoped she would integrate more into society, He Qiya still opened her mouth to speak.

"Alright then, miss, please sit tight, we’re about to drive off."

The driver seemed extremely excited upon hearing He Qiya’s explanation.

He Qiya found this driver to be quite strange.

Was it really such a big deal to have a passenger take a taxi that it warranted such an excited expression?

It made He Qiya wonder if she might be this driver’s very first customer.

However, the driver’s words just a moment ago had already dispelled that fleeting thought of hers.

He Qiya wasn’t afraid, her own self-defense skills were quite competent.

Even if the driver had any abnormal ideas, He Qiya knew she could easily subdue an adult man.

Of course, Su Mu was the exception.

Remembering the time when Su Mu had restrained her without her being able to fight back at all.

He Qiya didn’t harbor a single unhappy thought right now, instead, her heart was tinged with sweetness.

That incident was also the closest contact she’d ever had with Su Mu, wasn’t it?

"Miss, thanks to you, I’ll also get to visit the wealthy district of our Huadong City."

The driver’s words snapped He Qiya back to reality.

He Qiya was momentarily stunned, then quickly understood.

So that was why the driver was acting bizarrely.

Did he really never venture up the mountain by the seaside of Huadong City?

After some thought, He Qiya realized she indeed had never seen the silhouette of a taxi on those mountain roads.

Without engaging the driver in further conversation, He Qiya wasn’t yet at the stage where she was comfortable chatting with strangers.

Seeing that his passenger had no desire to talk, the driver also wisely clamped his mouth shut.

This wasn’t just any customer to offend.

If it had been a regular customer, the worst that could happen would be a complaint against him, and that would be the end of it.

But offending a customer of this caliber meant trouble. The driver knew it wouldn’t be as simple as a mere complaint.

If he upset someone with such connections, he might very well lose his job.

Thanks to the driver’s self-induced apprehensions, He Qiya was granted some peace and quiet for the rest of the ride.

In truth, the driver was overthinking things.

It was just a taxi ride, and He Qiya felt it would be more of a hassle to cause trouble for someone over it.

Besides, as the driver had said, it wasn’t often that He Qiya took a taxi.

If it weren’t for Su Mu’s emergency, she wouldn’t even be experiencing a taxi ride domestically today.

...

After dropping off He Qiya, Su Mu turned right at the intersection and headed towards the Su Family Group.

Along the way, Su Mu didn’t drive too fast.

Not taking He Qiya home wasn’t just due to it being out of the way, but it also wasn’t because Su Mu was in a hurry to get to the Su Family Group.

Thinking of that unwelcome visitor who showed up uninvited and with an incredibly thick skin, now lingering in the Su Family Group, Su Mu felt a surge of distaste.

Su Mu had thought he made himself clear to Li Yaoming, believing that Li Feiyu wouldn’t appear in his life anymore.

Su Mu hadn’t anticipated that he seriously underestimated Li Feiyu’s thick-skinned nature.

Indeed, the one squatting in the Su Family Group at this moment was Li Feiyu, who had claimed to have fallen for Su Mu after just one encounter.

If not for her ignorance of Su Mu’s exact home address, Li Feiyu probably would have barged right there.

And for this matter, she could thank Elder Li for not disclosing that Su Mu’s castle is atop a mountain in Huadong City.

Otherwise, given such a conspicuous location, Li Feiyu wouldn’t even need to inquire before going straight there.
