Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 380 - 379: Important Extra Credit

Is it closer to Huadong City?

He Qiya really hadn’t expected Su Mu to give such a reason.

She had no idea what kind of expression the S University’s admissions director would have upon hearing Su Mu’s reason.

After all, Z University and S University had always competed in academics and professional skills.

Now, S University was defeated by geographical location, and He Qiya felt that the admissions director for S University must be reluctant to accept it.

But reluctance was no solution, as the decision could only be made by Su Mu.

The admissions directors of both S University and Z University could only respect Su Mu’s decision.

"Is this what you call a ’divine twist’?"

"Is it that strange?"

It was Su Mu who asked this question.

Su Mu felt that saying those words at the time was perfectly normal.

Could this really count as a ’divine twist’? Apart from the enriched facial expressions of the two universities’ admissions directors, Su Mu thought everything else was very normal.

The ’divine twist’ that Four Eyes mentioned did seem a bit exaggerated.

"Su Mu, this doesn’t qualify as a ’divine twist’ to you?"

Watching Su Mu’s calm face, Four Eyes could only shake his head.

This was the confidence of someone with something to rely on.

Of course, Su Mu’s reliance at that time was not the Su Family conglomerate, but his outstanding scores.

"Only you could come up with such a reason to reject the admissions director of S University."

"If it were someone else, wouldn’t they be eagerly trying to squeeze into S University?"

"Su Mu, I won’t hide it from you, if that S University director could have contacted me at that time, I would have been willing to pay out of pocket."

Of course, even if Four Eyes dared to offer, the other party wouldn’t dare to accept it.

This could be considered bribery, and the admissions director of S University wouldn’t compromise their bright future for just one person like Four Eyes.

"You’re exaggerating too much."

Su Mu felt that Four Eyes was going overboard.

After all, Su Mu could only choose one university.

So, naturally, Su Mu would select one that had some advantages for him.

Geographical advantage is a very important bonus point, after all.

"Su Mu, is Z University in Wudong City?"

Having been abroad for several years and fearing a mistake, He Qiya wanted to confirm all the information.

Of course, He Qiya could entirely go home and look up the information online.

But she felt that an answer from Su Mu’s mouth would make her feel more at ease.

"Yes, in Wudong City."

Thinking that He Qiya might not be familiar with the domestic university scene, Su Mu confirmed her question.

Wudong City?

He Qiya etched it firmly into her heart. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

He Qiya knew that gaining admission to Z University might still be a bit difficult for her.

But Wudong City probably had more universities than just Z University.

After getting home, He Qiya would ask her father to help her contact a university in Wudong City.

That way, He Qiya felt she could be in the same city as Su Mu again.

The chances for the two of them to meet in the future would also increase.

Neither Su Mu nor Four Eyes was aware of He Qiya’s thoughts.

They didn’t think much about it and just casually chatted about their upcoming university life.

Anyway, Four Eyes felt that his four years of university life were bound to be colorful.

Four Eyes also knew that with his own grades, he would be very satisfied just to scrape through and graduate from college.

As for pursuing a master’s or a doctorate in the future, that was absolutely out of the question for him.

The phone that Su Mu had put back in his pocket hadn’t rung either.

It seemed that Xuanxuan was about to break his habit of replying immediately this time.

Poor Jiang Xinxuan had already gotten used to the fact that Su Mu wouldn’t reply to his messages promptly.

So, after sending the WeChat message, Jiang Xinxuan went straight to the bathroom to wash up.

The sound of water completely drowned out the notification of the WeChat message Su Mu sent.

So this time, it turned out that Jiang Xinxuan was the one who hadn’t replied to the message promptly.

It wasn’t yet the peak dining hour, and there weren’t many customers in the Western restaurant, so naturally, the service wouldn’t be too slow.

It wasn’t long before a few waiters came over with their trays.

Four Eyes had indeed ordered a lot, and judging by the quantity, Su Mu thought that adding another person wouldn’t be a problem.

He Qiya had gotten all the information she wanted and didn’t keep questioning Four Eyes.

The three of them had a relatively quiet lunch together.

In between, only Four Eyes and Su Mu had spoken a few words occasionally.

He Qiya had been acting as a listener the whole time.

By the time dessert was served, Su Mu had already finished his meal.

Su Mu never liked anything too sweet, so he didn’t partake.

It was Four Eyes who had talked about wanting to lose weight earlier, but now he began to indulge himself once again.

"Su Mu, should I help you finish yours?"

Four Eyes, of course, knew Su Mu very well and was aware that his good friend wasn’t interested in desserts.

Four Eyes looked as though he wanted to be helpful.

In reality, Four Eyes just loved sweets and was too embarrassed to say it outright.

After all, he was being watched by a girl like He Qiya.

Four Eyes thought he should still be a bit more reserved.

So, when ordering, Four Eyes had directly asked for two portions of dessert.

It wasn’t that Four Eyes didn’t know Su Mu didn’t like them; Four Eyes had already thought out a strategy.

Four Eyes felt utterly justified in enjoying two portions of dessert.

Indeed, it was a happy thing.

"Aren’t you afraid your silhouette girl won’t like a chubby guy?"

Seeing that Four Eyes had already moved the dessert plate in front of himself, Su Mu played a trump card.

Su Mu knew that at this point, even if he advised Four Eyes to eat less, it probably wouldn’t be very effective.

Four Eyes’s affection for desserts seemed to have been deeply felt by Su Mu ever since they first met.

Su Mu still remembered how back then, even when eating ice cream, Four Eyes would typically have one in each hand.

Naturally, the dessert-loving Four Eyes would only restrain himself when faced with an even greater temptation.

"Then I better not eat it."

Hearing Su Mu’s words, Four Eyes sheepishly put down the spoon he had already stretched towards the dessert.

Compared to the silhouette girl, Four Eyes felt desserts were definitely not as important.

Glancing subconsciously at his bulging stomach, Four Eyes almost regretted why he had let himself go so much during the summer vacation.

Now look at him, not even halfway through the summer vacation, and his weight had already risen by no less than ten pounds.

Four Eyes was almost in tears.

Wasn’t this the consequence of lacking foresight?

Four Eyes had never imagined that one day he would suddenly meet a girl who made his heart flutter.

Otherwise, Four Eyes thought that if he had been prepared, he definitely wouldn’t have let himself go so much this summer vacation.

Looking at Su Mu’s stomach-free figure, envy was all Four Eyes could see in his eyes.

"Su Mu, have you been working out lately? I feel like your figure has improved way too much since the last time we played soccer."

Unable to hold back, Four Eyes didn’t even care that He Qiya, the girl, was also there when he blurted out his question.

Four Eyes admitted that he was so eager because he too longed to have a body like Su Mu’s.

"Got a gym membership card, I go to exercise occasionally."

Su Mu nodded, acknowledging that he indeed had been working out.

It was just that it might be a bit different from what Four Eyes was thinking.

Because of the Champion Physical Fitness sign-ins granted by the system, exercising was extremely easy for Su Mu.

What might take others years to achieve, Su Mu could accomplish in less than a month.

Not wanting to give Four Eyes too much of a shock, Su Mu simply said.

"Su Mu, where do you work out that you’ve seen such remarkable results?"

Unable to resist, Four Eyes swept his gaze over Su Mu again, convinced that the fitness center Su Mu attended must be very special indeed.

How long had it been since he last played soccer with Su Mu?

And now Su Mu had such a great body?

When Four Eyes said it was good, he wasn’t implying that the old Su Mu was in bad shape or anything.

In fact, Su Mu had always been a natural clothes hanger.

His physique naturally leaves nothing to be desired.

Four Eyes just felt that it was incredibly enviable for Su Mu to have suddenly acquired something as marvelous as abs.

Four Eyes attributed all these changes in Su Mu to the fitness club where Su Mu had gotten his gym membership.

It seemed to Four Eyes that if he could just get a gym membership card at the same fitness center as Su Mu,

perhaps those coveted abs that all men dream of would just find their way onto Four Eyes as well.

He Qiya had been quietly listening to the conversation between Su Mu and Four Eyes all this time.

Seeing Four Eyes look at Su Mu with such longing, He Qiya knew that Four Eyes was oversimplifying things.

He Qiya had just gone to the Super LM Fitness Center with Su Mu.

She knew the amount of exercise Su Mu did was not something an ordinary person could handle.

Four Eyes only saw Su Mu’s drastic changes but didn’t consider the great effort Su Mu had put in.

Because He Qiya wasn’t aware of the mysterious system’s existence.

So in He Qiya’s eyes, Su Mu’s workouts were very strenuous.

He Qiya could never have imagined that what seemed impossible to her was, in fact, quite easy for Su Mu.

"Super LM Fitness Center."

Su Mu thought it would be good if Four Eyes wanted to work out, so he directly mentioned the name of the gym where he had his membership.

"Su Mu, when are you going to work out next time? Take me with you, will you?"

Four Eyes committed the name of the gym Su Mu mentioned to memory.

Four Eyes thought if he went with Su Mu, whatever Su Mu would do during the workout, he’d do the same.

That way, maybe it won’t be long before Four Eyes himself can have a body like Su Mu’s.

Looking at his own belly once again, Four Eyes thought to himself that it was finally time to say "goodbye" to this unsightly creature.

Su Mu frowned slightly, why did Four Eyes’ words sound so familiar?

Looking at He Qiya, Su Mu finally remembered.

It turns out Four Eyes’ words were similar to He Qiya’s.

Su Mu remembered He Qiya saying the same thing, asking him to take her along when he went to work out.

Suddenly, Su Mu felt like he had attracted another tail for himself.

Su Mu, who had been accustomed to going solo, was now being eyed by both He Qiya and Four Eyes at the same time?

The Super LM Fitness Center was running just fine, so why did He Qiya and Four Eyes insist on joining him?

"My workout times are not fixed. He Qiya just got a membership card there; maybe the two of you could make an appointment to go together."

Su Mu felt that this was the best method.

Su Mu’s approach to fitness was rather sporadic, three days fishing and two days sun-drying nets.

Because of Champion Physical Fitness, combined with the long duration of Su Mu’s workouts,

the results of his fitness regimen were so apparent.

If Four Eyes followed his routine,

Su Mu knew that Four Eyes wouldn’t be able to keep up with the duration of his workouts.

Therefore, the fitness results Four Eyes desired would definitely not be very noticeable.

If Four Eyes were to also visit the gym just a few times like Su Mu, the effect would probably be negligible.

The more Su Mu thought about it, the more he believed his idea was brilliant.

He Qiya had always wanted to accompany her to the gym, which in Su Mu’s view, was just because she feared contact with strangers.

Now that He Qiya and Four Eyes were acquainted,

with a few more interactions, Su Mu felt there was a possibility for He Qiya and Four Eyes to become friends.

After all, from Su Mu’s perspective, their behavior just now was nothing short of enjoying each other’s company.

As for Four Eyes, having He Qiya as a companion, Su Mu thought that Four Eyes’ motivation for fitness would increase.

You can’t let a big guy like that be outdone by a girl, can you?

Su Mu believed that even if Four Eyes were lazy, he couldn’t concede in front of a girl.

When He Qiya and Four Eyes exchanged looks, both saw resistance in each other’s eyes.

He Qiya’s decision to get a membership at Super LM Fitness Center was entirely because of Su Mu.

She just hoped to have more opportunities to spend time and interact with Su Mu.

Otherwise, He Qiya would never consider going to an outside fitness center.

The He Family already had fitness equipment comparable to any gym’s.

And He Qiya actually preferred peace and quiet.

The atmosphere at home was really what He Qiya liked.

Now that Su Mu was asking He Qiya to go to the fitness center with Four Eyes, of course, she was unwilling.

This made her membership at Super LM Fitness Center utterly meaningless.

He Qiya certainly didn’t get the membership to go to the gym with Four Eyes.

Of course, the membership fee was not what He Qiya cared about.

What mattered to her was that the person she wanted to accompany her to the fitness center had been replaced by someone she wasn’t keen on.

That was the crux of the issue.

Four Eyes shared He Qiya’s sentiment.

He Qiya was not the companion Four Eyes wanted to have at the fitness center.

Four Eyes went to the gym with the aim of achieving a physique like Su Mu’s—or to be more precise, driven by the desire to build a body similar to Su Mu’s.

Now that Su Mu was suggesting Four Eyes team up with He Qiya,

what kind of physique could Four Eyes expect to achieve?

Perhaps a curvaceous, sensually appealing one?

Thinking this, Four Eyes immediately shook his head; what he wanted was the physique of a rugged man.

Not the delicate curves of a woman’s body.

Seeing Four Eyes shake his head, He Qiya didn’t know that it was because he had mentally pictured himself with a graceful figure and found it nauseating.

He Qiya subconsciously assumed that Four Eyes was directly opposing Su Mu’s suggestion.

He Qiya felt that on this point, her goals were very much aligned with Four Eyes’, and it seemed they could be temporary allies.

"I’m not willing either."

He Qiya thought that Four Eyes had expressed his opposition through body language, so she might as well just say it outright.

After all, Four Eyes was the first to disagree, so her objection wouldn’t seem too impolite, right?
