Chapter 145: Money is hard to make, shit is hard to eat
Dormitory of Shangjing Drama Academy.
"Brother, do you want to hear some bad news?"
As soon as Su Mu entered the dormitory, Gao Yang came over, put his arm around his shoulder, and asked him face to face.
"I don't want to hear it." Su Mu answered without any expression.
Gao Yang was stunned as if he was constipated, with a twisted expression.
No, why didn't his brother play by the rules? Anyone would ask "what bad news" at this moment, right?
Su Mu sat down by himself, and seeing Gao Yang still holding his shoulder, he curled the corners of his lips and kindly answered his friend's doubts.
"Do you think I should ask you some bad news?"
Gao Yang nodded with a look of "so you know it".
"You look like you should ask me what I'm going to say. It's too obvious."
"Okay, you've seen it all, but you're not going along with it. Damn it. Are you still not good brothers?"
"Yes, why not? So what's the bad news?" Su Mu had almost finished teasing him, and finally asked him as he wished.
Gao Yang's face turned into a sharing face in an instant, but he smiled and then became distressed again, because what he was about to say was not good news for Su Mu.
"Didn't we hear your green tea brother say that he wanted to participate in a show when we were having dinner that day?"
"That show is very popular now."
"If this trend continues, he will really be able to take advantage of the opportunity to become famous."
Gao Yang clicked his tongue twice, looking unhappy, as if he was very reluctant to see Su Ning become famous.
Su Mu was curious, "Why do you hope for him less than I do?"
"It's all because of you. You can tell from Su Ning's behavior about the little things in your family. He must have bullied you at home!"
Su Mu smiled indifferently, "He doesn't have this chance." He
was talking about this life. In his previous life, he was indeed bullied by the Su family for a long time and ended up miserably.
"But he can't be popular and won't be able to jump around for long."
Gao Yang was immediately interested when he heard this, "Hey, what do you mean? Tell me more."
"I'm not sure either. Let's wait and see. There should be some explosive news."
"Su Mu, do you have any inside information? Share it with me. I will never tell anyone. I'm very strict."
Gao Yang nudged Su Mu with his shoulder, looking like we are good friends. He is just a curious baby.
Su Mu smiled helplessly. It was not that he did not want to talk about it, but the world had changed. He was really unsure about how some things would develop.
"Don't talk about him. I am tired of listening to him. By the way, are you going to the bar tonight?"
"Yeah, money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat."
"I will go with you tonight. Invite Shen Cong and Liu Ming to have some fun."
"Okay, okay. I will tell them when they come back from class."
Gao Yang was serious about having fun.
Growing up as an orphan, he often felt lonely, so he would be very excited to have fun with good friends.
In the evening, the four of them went to the Moonlight Bar together.
Especially Shen Cong and Liu Ming, they finally came once. Before, the two of them always thought that this bar where their roommate worked part-time was very magical. Finally, they had the opportunity to come and play.
Relying on his familiarity with the manager, Su Mu and his friends booked a table with the best seats.
The view of the center of the stage is not blocked, but it is also the booth farthest away from the noisy crowd.
After ordering some drinks with very low alcohol content and a nut plate, Gao Yang sat for a while, and then left early to go to the lounge to prepare for the performance.
The gorgeous lights, the high atmosphere, and the slight intoxication of alcohol made the few people let themselves go completely.
During this time, Su Mu saw Chu Hanting coming in.
But this time Chu Hanting didn't come to chase Su Mu, he came to discuss something with Shangguan Fan.
In the past, when Chu Hanting came to Moonlight Bar, he would not even pay attention to the first floor. But ever since Su Mu played the piano here, he would always unconsciously glance around the lobby. During
this glance, he seemed to sense something and saw Su Mu and his roommate.
Chu Hanting did not go over to disturb him. After all, Su Mu also had his own social circle and his own private life. At this time, Chu Hanting would not choose to casually insert himself unless Su Mu invited him.
He and Su Mu saw each other and smiled at each other.
Although no words were spoken, Su Mu understood what he meant, "Drink less, and let's go back together later."
After seeing Su Mu nod at him obediently with a flushed face, he strode away and went to the office to find Shangguan Fan.
After Chu Hanting entered, he crossed his legs and sat down on the sofa, and went straight to the point: "How's the investigation going?"
Shangguan Fan threw a stack of information on his legs, "Take a look at this first."
"Your guess is right, if Smith's behavior hadn't been so stupid that made you suspect him, I would have almost been fooled."
Shangguan Fan crossed his legs and put his hands on the sofa, his expression gloomy and cold, "Damn Smith family, relying on being in Country E, where we can't reach them, they actually play this trick."
Chu Hanting quickly browsed through the investigation data, he closed the document and put it on the tea table beside him.
He looked up with deep eyes and a low voice, "The Smith family can become the number one company in Country E, the person in charge cannot be such an irrational fool."
"But they pushed a side branch to prevaricate, what does that mean? If there is really no intention of cooperation, they can just refuse directly. Is it necessary to do this?" Shangguan Fan asked with a raised eyebrow.
Chu Hanting narrowed his eyes: "Maybe it's a test."
"Probing?" Shangguan Fan looked puzzled, "What are they testing?"
"It's hard to say," Chu Hanting put down his clasped fingers on his legs and rubbed his fingertips quietly, "It may be testing you and me, or it may be testing the strength of the Chu family and the Shangguan family."
"There is another thing, Smith and Su Yuanshan have taken action together, and the purpose is unclear."
Shangguan Fan sneered, "This Su Yuanshan is a god, the 'god' in 'god'. He sold the son he raised for more than 20 years to your Chu family without any mercy. Now that he has received financial sponsorship, he sees that you and Su Mu are getting along well, and he turns around and joins forces with outsiders to mess with you. He is so ruthless."
"I don't understand whether he has a grudge against the Chu family or he can't stand Su Mu getting better!"
"If he were smart, he would have built a good relationship with Su Mu, and he could have taken advantage of you by relying on his status as his adoptive father. I really don't understand why he is doing this now."
Chu Hanting didn't understand it at first. He thought that someone like Su Yuanshan would not give up easily if he could get benefits. He thought that Su Yuanshan would always hold on to Su Mu and build a good relationship with him, and he shouldn't have an enemy-like relationship with Su Mu like now.
In fact, it wasn't that Su Yuanshan didn't want to, but that Su Mu wouldn't let him.
In his previous life, Su Yuanshan had always controlled Su Mu so that he could use him to harm the Chu Group.
And now, because Su Mu was reborn, he took the initiative to break with Su Yuanshan and others. How could Su Yuanshan, who was so arrogant, allow Su Mu to climb over him?
This led to the almost hostile relationship between Su Mu and the Su family.
And these points that he couldn't figure out before, after having another memory, Chu Hanting suddenly understood a little.
So Su Mu's change is also because he has the same memory, right? And he recovered earlier than him.
Seeing Chu Hanting frowning and thinking, Shangguan Fan asked clearly: "Why? Do you know the reason?"
"I guessed it a little bit," Chu Hanting answered seriously, but he still has many unsolved mysteries in his heart, and he needs to find an opportunity to test Su Mu's attitude.
