Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 387 - 386: After Many Twists and Turns

The security guard only noticed when Su Mu rolled down the window that the owner of the black Ferrari was actually a super handsome guy.

The security guard didn’t dare to stare at the handsome guy, not because he was too embarrassed.

But rather that a young handsome guy who could drive a Ferrari was clearly a second-generation rich kid, and the guard was afraid of offending him, so he didn’t dare to stare.

However, the guard did manage to get a good look at the handsome guy’s face in the Ferrari.

The guard guessed that this handsome guy must be quite young, looking at most like a college student.

But isn’t it that colleges haven’t gone on break yet?

For a moment, the guard couldn’t figure out the handsome guy’s identity.

Luckily, there wasn’t time for the guard to speculate wildly.

Su Mu gestured, added to the fact that the red Ferrari next to the black one honked its horn.

All of these were signaling the guard to go over to the red Ferrari to ask about the situation.

Smiling at the handsome guy, the guard ran over to the red Ferrari.

Although the guard didn’t know the exact identity of Ferrari’s handsome owner, he still had some discernment.

He knew better than to provoke these rich kids driving luxury cars.

Especially with today’s display, three luxury cars blocking the school entrance.

The guard was even suspecting whether these wealthy people had come as a group today?

Or was there some important event happening at Yude High School, but as just a security guard, he wasn’t privy to that information?

As the guard approached the red Ferrari, his mind was spinning with numerous possibilities.

He Qiya had already rolled down the car window of the driver’s seat when she sounded the car horn.

The guard hadn’t even got close to the red Ferrari, and he was already a little shocked.

If in the black Ferrari there was a super handsome guy.

Now in this red Ferrari, there was a beautiful woman.

Looking at them, they seemed to be about the same age.

The guard really didn’t know what part of Yude High School was attracting all these rich kids.

If there’s a high school in Huadong City where the rich second generation gathers, it should be Huadong City International Middle School, right?

It couldn’t possibly be Yude High School, could it?

Of course, the guard had no chance to voice the questions in his mind.

"Miss, may I ask what brings you to Yude High School?"

Revealing his trademark smile, the guard at this moment was vastly different from his usual expressionless demeanor.

When students from Yude High School went in and out, the guard certainly wouldn’t look this cheerful.

Normally, the guard was all business, watching the students coming in and out with eyes like scanners.

"I’ve already spoken with Principal Zhou, my friend and I are here to find someone."

"You can call and ask, my name is He Qiya."

He Qiya was even colder than the guard’s usual stern face.

Coolly saying just a few words, she wasn’t at all worried that her attitude might prevent her from entering Yude High School.

While driving over from Wanda Plaza, He Qiya had already received a WeChat message from her cousin.

Her cousin said that she had talked with her uncle, and that they could just go in directly.

He Qiya’s cousin was quite efficient, even sending specific information such as Li Minli being in the second year class B over to He Qiya.

Since her cousin said so, He Qiya of course understood that her uncle was also informed.

Therefore, He Qiya didn’t plan to say much to the guard; it was better for him to call and ask for himself.

"Principal Zhou? Are you saying you contacted Principal Zhou directly?"

Hearing He Qiya’s words, the guard became somewhat unsettled.

What kind of person was this beauty, being able to contact the principal directly?

The guard felt that even if he wanted to contact the principal, he wouldn’t be able to do so directly.

It was a matter of rank.

The guard didn’t have Principal Zhou’s phone number, and it was impossible for there to be a number for the principal’s office in the security room at the gate.

If someone wanted to find the principal, they generally wouldn’t go through the security room at the entrance.

They would be able to contact the principal’s office or the principal’s assistant directly.

Why would they need a guard to relay messages?

If today it were just three youngsters at the school gate claiming they wanted to see the principal.

The guard would probably have sent them packing by this time.

The guard would think, what else is there for youngsters to do that they’d come to a high school for such a prank?

To find the principal?

If you knew the principal, would you need to go through a security guard to find him?

But, in the presence of young people who arrived in luxury cars, the guard just couldn’t muster any authority.

Given their status, it seemed unlikely that they would do something so pointless, right?

"Kind of," said He Qiya, nodding, since she had contacted her cousin, who in turn had contacted her uncle.

This relationship was actually very close, so she felt like contacting her cousin was pretty much the same as directly contacting her uncle.

"Kind of? Miss, do you actually know Principal Zhou?"

Because of He Qiya’s words, the guard was confused.

What did she mean by ’kind of’?

So was it a "yes" or a "no"?

The difference was only one word, yet the implications were worlds apart.

"Of course I know him. Principal Zhou is aware of the matter. Just make a phone call and you’ll find out," said He Qiya, finding the guard to be quite the dawdler.

She had already given her name, a simple phone call could confirm everything.

Why wasn’t the guard verifying it instead of idling next to her car?

He Qiya didn’t realize that what was simple for her was rather difficult for the guard.

The guard simply couldn’t contact Principal Zhou directly.

Seeing the woman’s confident demeanor, the guard didn’t dare to offend her.

Now, the guard really felt like he was between a rock and a hard place.

"Miss, could you please call Principal Zhou and have someone from upstairs call our security room? Then I can let you all in," the guard proposed.

Since the beauty had said she knew Principal Zhou, a phone call to the principal should be no trouble, right?

Moreover, the beauty had just said Principal Zhou was aware she was coming to the school today.

If there’s a directive from above, it would be much easier for him to let them in.

"I don’t have Principal Zhou’s number. Why don’t you make the call and ask? It’s not difficult," said He Qiya.

"I’ve told you my name is He Qiya, just tell Principal Zhou and he’ll know."

At this point, He Qiya somewhat regretted not having her uncle’s number.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so hard just to get through a gate.

However, He Qiya felt that even if she hadn’t given the security guard her uncle’s cell phone number, wouldn’t the guard at least have the number for the principal’s office?

He Qiya cast an unsatisfied glance at the security guard. Such a simple matter, and yet so much time was being wasted.

This security guard was truly a time-waster.

"Miss, you..."

The security guard had wanted to question the beauty in the Ferrari—such bold claims without even having the principal’s number?

But upon seeing He Qiya’s displeased expression, the security guard thought it would be better not to offend anyone.

After all, who knew what kind of background this beauty might have?

If the security guard unwittingly offended some important figure, he certainly didn’t want to be unable to handle the repercussions.

"Miss, the thing is, our security office doesn’t have Principal Zhou’s office number either."

"Since you’ve mentioned that Principal Zhou is aware of your visit to the school, I believe you can definitely contact him."

"Could you please try reaching out to him?"

"As soon as we get a notification from above allowing entry, I will immediately open the gate for you."

Having no other choice, the security guard came up with a compromise.

Nevertheless, the security guard was determined not to offend anyone lightly.

The security guard knew that the owners of the three luxury cars all looked quite young, but they certainly had significant clout.

Four Eyes had lowered the driver’s side window as soon as he stopped the car.

Therefore, when the security guard walked toward the red Ferrari, he also caught a glimpse of a young, chubby boy sitting inside the Pagani parked beside it.

Thinking about the ages of the three individuals, the security guard felt an overwhelming sense of envy.

Even if the security guard worked diligently for his whole life, he probably wouldn’t be able to afford even one of their car tires.

As for the importance of one’s birth, the security guard was once again practically reminded of this truth.

He Qiya glanced at the security guard who was insistently standing by her car.

Seeing that the guard didn’t seem to be lying or deliberately causing her trouble, He Qiya nodded.

Since the security guard didn’t have her uncle’s number—let alone Principal Zhou’s office number in the security room—

He Qiya decided not to make it difficult for the security guard.

In her heart, He Qiya did harbor some criticism of her uncle for being so out of touch.

Not publicizing his own cell phone made some sense to He Qiya,

but keeping the office number so secretive, He Qiya really felt that her uncle was a bit too aloof.

Pulling out her phone, He Qiya noticed that the security guard standing by her car didn’t seem to have any intention of leaving.

He Qiya didn’t mind, though, as she was just about to call her aunt, not to make any private call.

He Qiya felt that the security guard’s lingering presence likely had another purpose.

That was, the security guard was waiting for an answer.

Since He Qiya knew she wasn’t deceiving anyone, she certainly didn’t mind the guard standing there waiting.

After dialing her aunt’s number, the call connected quickly.

Because the security guard was there, He Qiya pressed the speakerphone button.

This way, the security guard could hear everything clearly, so she wouldn’t have to repeat herself after hanging up the phone.

"Yao Yao, have you arrived at your uncle’s school?"

A woman’s voice came through the other end of the phone, very elegant.

That person was indeed He Qiya’s aunt, Madam Zhou, the wife of Principal Zhou of Yude High School.

Timing the call, He Qiya’s aunt figured that her niece should have reached her husband’s school by now.

Yet, it was somewhat strange—why would Yao Yao call her at this time unless there was some other matter?

"Auntie, I have arrived, but Yude High School’s security doesn’t have Uncle’s phone number, nor the number for his office, so I still can’t get through the school gate."

"Auntie, could you please call Uncle and let him know to call the security at the school gate? The guards here are waiting for instructions from above before they dare to open the gate."

He Qiya glanced at the security guard, whose face had turned somewhat pale. She was merely stating the facts, without any exaggeration.

What does this security guard’s expression mean?

"Alright, Yao Yao, wait a moment. I forgot to mention this to your uncle just now."

"Probably your uncle didn’t expect the school security wouldn’t let you in, I’ll call him right now."

He Qiya’s Aunt’s voice sounded like that of a woman with great temperament.

Her calm voice, gentle and soft, was just right for the role of a principal’s wife.

"Okay Auntie, I’ll wait right at the gate."

"Bye, Auntie."

"Bye."

After hanging up the phone, He Qiya felt that she shouldn’t need to explain anything else to the security guard standing here, right?

At such a close distance, she believed the security guard must have heard everything very clearly.

"Miss, the uncle you mentioned... is he Principal Zhou?"

The security guard connected the dots from the beautiful woman’s phone conversation and her previous words, extracting a very important piece of information.

Principal Zhou is the beautiful woman’s uncle!

This realization made the security guard jump inside.

The security guard had always felt that the people from the three luxury cars had significant backgrounds.

But he never expected that the beauty in the red Ferrari was actually a direct relative of Principal Zhou’s family.

And this relationship wasn’t a distant one either.

Hearing the beauty calling ’Auntie’ again and again, the security guard knew that her relation to Principal Zhou was very close.

The Auntie the beauty had been calling on the phone must be Principal Zhou’s wife.

The security guard subconsciously lifted his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

He wondered if the Principal’s niece would complain about him for stopping her at the school gate for so long?

"Miss, I really didn’t mean to stop you on purpose, it’s just that the school has rules, and I was just following them."

Without waiting for He Qiya to answer, the security guard hurriedly started explaining.

"I know, weren’t you waiting for a phone call? Now, you should go to the security room and wait, the call should come through soon."

He Qiya thought her own attitude hadn’t been bad, right?

Why did the security guard seem so scared?

He Qiya cut off the security guard, who was ready to explain further. She guessed that her aunt must have already made the call to her uncle.

Not wanting to keep herself, Su Mu, and Four Eyes waiting at the gate of Yude High School, she urged the security guard to hurry back to the security room to answer the phone.

Although Su Mu had been sitting in the car without rushing her, He Qiya felt that she should still hurry things up a bit.

Otherwise, in Su Mu’s eyes, she would appear too dawdling even for such a small matter.

He Qiya didn’t know if Su Mu would laugh at her internally.

Right now, He Qiya had no mind to quarrel with the security guard.

She just hoped the security guard would quickly return to his post and that her aunt’s phone call to her uncle would come soon.

"Xiao Wu, what are you dawdling for? The principal’s office has called, they said to open the gate immediately."

The security guard standing next to He Qiya’s car hadn’t even had the chance to turn around and run towards the security room.

An obviously older security guard was running toward He Qiya while shouting.
