Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?

Chapter 295: Chapter 294: Business Value

Su Mu’s phone call wasn’t particularly long.

Amidst everyone’s divergent thoughts, Su Mu put away her phone and came back.

"Mu, how did it go? Did your mother agree?"

Allen was the first one to rush forward.

Since Allen had suggested making the call, of course, he was the one to first ask the question.

While Bai Wanting and Jiang Xinxuan were also eager to know the answer, they still retained a certain degree of restraint.

Bai Wanting felt that if she appeared too anxious, it might be embarrassing to choose a wedding dress all over again if Su Mu’s mother hadn’t agreed.

Jiang Xinxuan both wanted to know and was afraid to find out.

To Jiang Xinxuan, if Aunt Bai had agreed, it would mean that in Bai Xiuping’s heart, she, as Su Mu’s girlfriend, did hold some significance.

Last time Bai Xiuping saw Jiang Xinxuan, she seemed very fond of her, and Jiang Xinxuan didn’t know if today’s call would change Su Mu’s mother’s attitude towards her.

If Aunt Bai hadn’t agreed, Jiang Xinxuan knew that she would have to work even harder in the future.

This would only illustrate that she had not yet met Su Mu’s mother’s expectations.

Jiang Xinxuan knew that she still had a long way to go before she could become a daughter-in-law of the Su Family.

The others didn’t carry such heavy thoughts.

For them, they were just outsiders; whatever decision was made by those above, they just had to follow.

"My mom said the wedding dress in the cabinet can’t be sold to outsiders."

Watching Allen’s eager expression, Su Mu casually dropped this comment.

Allan’s face was filled with surprise; this was very different from what he had expected.

Allan had thought that even if one didn’t consider the relationship between Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan, he and Su Mu were at least friends by now.

Although Allan’s interactions with Su Mu hadn’t been for long, he had felt a keen sense of regret that they hadn’t met sooner.

Allan felt that even if his relationship with Su Mu was just as friends, Su Mu’s mother shouldn’t have outright rejected his request like this.

After all, the presence of the wedding dress in the store display indicated it had commercial value.

Since it had commercial value, Allan had said from the beginning that he was asking Su Mu’s mother to agree to let him buy the wedding dress.

Allan didn’t have the mindset of getting something for nothing.

Given Allan’s status in Canada, he didn’t need to engage in such undignified behavior, right?

Besides, if Allan were the sort of person to covet a cheap advantage, Bai Wanting wouldn’t have taken a liking to him.

Allan thought there was nothing wrong with his approach, so why wouldn’t Su Mu’s mother agree?

Not quite ready to give up, Allan wondered if Su Mu had made the situation clear to his mother.

"Mu, did you tell her I wanted to buy this wedding dress? Money is no object."

Su Mu just smiled and said nothing.

Money?

Was it that his family lacked the funds?

"Allen,"

Although Su Mu didn’t speak, Bai Wanting was somewhat anxious.

Allan might not understand the stature of the Su Family Corporation within the country, but Bai Wanting was very clear about it.

Now Allan’s words sounded somewhat dismissive of the Su Family Corporation to the ears of others.

While Bai Wanting knew Allan didn’t mean it that way, and it was just Allan being impatient,

Bai Wanting’s understanding of Allan’s intention didn’t mean that others would understand as well.

Bai Wanting felt that Allan asking Su Mu to make that call might have already caused trouble for Xuanxuan.

She didn’t want Allan’s careless words to lead to any talk that could be detrimental to Xuanxuan.

Bai Wanting quickly spoke up to interrupt what Allen might say next, fearing it could cause misunderstandings.

After all, not only does the Dream Wedding Store belong to the Su Family Group.

There are also employees from the Su Family Group’s head office present here.

It seemed that Wang Yizhong’s position wasn’t low either.

Bai Wanting feared that Allen’s careless words might reach Su Mu’s mom’s ears and negatively impact Xuanxuan.

"Ting?"

Allen, who had been interrupted by Bai Wanting, looked at his fiancée with a puzzled expression.

Why did Bai Wanting seem so anxious?

Allen felt he hadn’t said anything wrong, had he?

Could this be another cultural difference?

Seeing the anxious look on Bai Wanting’s face, Allen didn’t continue speaking.

Jiang Xinxuan was also very nervous.

It was just that Jiang Xinxuan didn’t have the standing to stop Allen from speaking.

Upon hearing that Su Mu’s Aunt Bai was unwilling to sell the wedding dress in the cabinet, Jiang Xinxuan felt a chill in her heart.

Jiang Xinxuan felt that Su Mu’s mom’s impression of her must have dropped significantly because of the dress.

Bai Xiuping had initially made it clear to Wang Yizhong that the wedding dresses in the cabinet were not for sale.

Now, with this phone call from Su Mu, Jiang Xinxuan felt it could only make Aunt Bai believe that she had asked Su Mu to call.

Because if it weren’t for Jiang Xinxuan’s mediation, there really was no relation between Su Mu and Bai Wanting.

Of course, Su Mu wouldn’t make such a call for someone he had no relation with.

Jiang Xinxuan tried to calm herself down.

Yet, her hands that hung at her sides were clasped tightly together.

Jiang Xinxuan was now very afraid that this trivial matter might make Su Mu’s mom raise objections to her relationship with Su Mu.

It could only be said that Jiang Xinxuan cared too much about Su Mu, magnifying even the smallest issue out of proportion.

Feeling like she was scaring herself, Jiang Xinxuan’s mood was far from wonderful.

Not only was it not wonderful, but it could even be said to be quite terrible.

"Forget it, Su Mu, but still, thank you."

"Since your mom doesn’t want to sell that wedding dress, there must be her reasons. I’ll go upstairs and pick out another one."

Bai Wanting didn’t want everybody to feel too awkward and took the initiative to speak up, showing that she respected the decision made by Su Mu’s mom.

"Xuanxuan, come with me and help me pick out another one."

Others might not have noticed Jiang Xinxuan’s clasped hands, but Bai Wanting did.

Sighing internally, it looked like her apology to her cousin would have to wait until she returned to the Jiang Family’s house that evening.

Allen was her fiancé, and it was naturally Bai Wanting’s responsibility to handle the issues he caused.

Bai Wanting stepped forward, took Jiang Xinxuan by the arm, and gently patted her snow-white arm.

It was as if she was silently comforting her cousin.

Jiang Xinxuan indeed felt the comfort from her cousin and managed a smile at Bai Wanting.

Today was her cousin’s special day for a wedding photo shoot, and Jiang Xinxuan didn’t want her own emotions to affect her cousin.

But Jiang Xinxuan didn’t realize that the smile she forced was hardly any better than crying.

Su Mu watched the interaction between the cousins Xuanxuan and Bai Wanting and felt puzzled.

What’s the big deal?

Did the interaction between the cousins need to be as dramatic as if it were the end of the world?

Besides, he hadn’t finished what he was saying, had he?
