Chapter 296: Chapter 141 Su Huai, Why Did You Just Arrive!

My shoulder hurts!

Sicong subconsciously moved his shoulders, a faint phantom pain reminding him it was best not to act up...

Mr. Wang glanced at Su Huai, then turned his head to tentatively ask Gu Jiuyue, "Your boyfriend?"

"A good friend."

Gu Jiuyue corrected one word, then nodded lightly, "We’re leaving, bye-bye, Sicong."

"Ah? Ah, sure! Have fun! I’ll treat you to a meal when I have the time..."

Sicong was caught off guard, nodding and waving goodbye to them: "Then have a good time, I’ll treat you to a meal when I’m free..."

Gu Jiuyue didn’t respond and turned to leave.

Watching the group walk away, Doudou felt a bit displeased, "Why is she so arrogant?"

This girl was quite smart but hadn’t experienced much of the world. Out of jealousy for Gu Jiuyue and fear of Su Huai, she didn’t vent her frustration on Su Huai. She skillfully avoided recalling the painful memory of Mr. Wang’s setback.

Yet she shouldn’t have spoken with emotion, because clearly this wasn’t a topic she should be meddling in.

"Shut up!"

Mr. Wang scolded her and turned back to the villa, clearly not intending to go out anymore.

...

Not far from the villa, Su Huai initiated, "Your family has a good relationship with Yida?"

"Our family is one of the institutional investors in Yida."

By this point, Gu Jiuyue was already demonstrating a high degree of understanding of business investments. She added nonchalantly, "My dad must be the backup plan Wang had set up in advance? Wang is very particular about control but my dad got quite a few shares and doesn’t really focus on oversight. They must trust each other a lot."

Supposedly, probably; from her choice of words, it was clear she didn’t know the inside story and relied entirely on personal conjecture.

But the logic was very clear, and Su Huai felt it made sense as soon as he heard it.

He nodded and continued the analysis from another perspective, "Your dad keeps a tight grip on you, so if it were just a simple business matter, Mr. Wang wouldn’t have had the chance to meet you. It seems like the relationship is indeed out of the ordinary."

"Right!"

Gu Jiuyue nodded emphatically, laughing.

She really enjoyed chatting with Su Huai, feeling the understanding of close friends and the high-level awareness of like-minded smart people.

In contrast, Chen Ke was just too immature and lovestruck.

Caught up in the moment, she explained further, "He attended a family banquet of mine when I graduated from junior high. But I didn’t like him, too showy and immature."

The "like" here was very pure, clearly referring only to a first impression.

"Indeed."

Su Huai couldn’t help but chuckle and casually shared with her the previous conflict.

As he recounted the story, Gu Jiuyue alternated between being tense and surprised, eventually leaving a comment—

"Sounds like something he would do. Don’t bother with him in the future, and don’t be afraid. He doesn’t have many resources."

Wow, our Xiaojiu is really damn perceptive!

That last statement was incisively accurate.

Yida is a behemoth, but Little Wang could only put to use a small amount of pocket money, a typical second-generation rich kid with no real social resources.

The current Wang allows him to roam free, not interfering with anything and letting him venture on his own with the money provided.

Starting Panda TV, being hoodwinked by the team and cleaned up by 360, Wang didn’t utter a word. In the end, the debt issues and arbitral disputes were all handled by his mother, Mr. Lin.

So anytime Little Wang had an issue, he’d vent on Weibo or post angry statuses, or curse when the other party couldn’t be outdone. Not resorting to parental intervention—sorry, which wouldn’t work anyway, as he was also stubborn.

However, not many can see through this. Most people in the market are still afraid of his family background, always assuming he could topple anyone with a flip of his hand.

In reality, there are many rich second-generation kids and even common folks who clash with him. Zhuo Wei’s paparazzi got tired of snapping photos of him and wanted to hit him, but the young paparazzo eagerly presented his face, hoping for riches. It pissed off Little Wang so much he kicked the car wheel ferociously before getting into his car and leaving.

Later, when Zhuo Wei’s scoop was managed by a PR, he casually made Little Wang trend as a scapegoat, which frustrated the young Mr. Wang but left him without recourse.

But would those paparazzi dare to be so brazen with a real third-generation rich kid?

Anyone who’s been around the upper echelons knows that wealth and social resources are never synonymous.

Little Wang was one who had great fame, a bit of money, no social resources, and also wasn’t that bad in nature. Su Huai had been observing him for many years and saw right through him.

It’s normal for Su Huai who is reborn with advantages to have this insight, but Gu Jiuyue, who neither knew Little Wang well nor had much interaction with him, could point directly to the crux of the matter through her sharp observation skills. That’s real skill.

"Impressive! Your understanding of social resources is spot-on!"

Su Huai sincerely gave her a thumbs up, causing her to purse her lips and stifle a laugh.

"Let’s not talk about him anymore. Hey, does your family hold shares in Yida Business Management?"

"I’m not sure about that."

Gu Jiuyue shook her head, "I never get involved in the family business, only aware of some important information—my dad used to spend time with me, working remotely."

It seems Gu really dotes on his daughter.

Su Huai got the expected answer, not disappointed, and reached to open the car door for her.

"Watch your head, sit in the back."

Wu had opened a 7-seater business car, Su Huai and Gu Jiuyue sat side by side in the last row, and then continued their casual conversation.

"You’re asking that, do you have some idea in mind?"

Gu Jiuyue looked at Su Huai curiously, her business acumen making her guess something was up.

Su Huai wasn’t secretive, but he also didn’t tell the whole truth.

"I’m not interested in real estate, but I think Yida Film Industry is pretty awesome."

Theaters, huh...

Even though this asset-heavy venture doesn’t offer high capital utilization rates and can’t compare in profitability to top MCN agencies, owning a cinema chain means having another pole of power in the entertainment sector—a big difference between having and not having.
