132: Chapter 132 Cullinan and the Little Bread

When a person suddenly becomes rich, the biggest change isn't being able to buy whatever they want.

It's the attitude of the people around you.

Tang Luochuan didn't feel this very deeply, because he was still in school.

Relationships in school are still relatively pure.

But Shen Muqing felt it deeply.

Currently, he was still in the process of reclaiming his bride price; he had already gotten back 80,000, but the Li family still wanted to renege, and his side was being very firm.

And increasingly so.

Although Li Wenjing tried her best to apologize, she couldn't change Shen Muqing's attitude at all.

Because when he drove his land rover to work, the way his female colleagues looked at him changed.

In the past, he took the bus, the subway, or occasionally drove his family's ten-year-old Accord.

No one paid him any attention at all.

But driving a land rover was a different story.

"Why? I thought chasing girls was supposed to be hard... but... why is this happening?" Although he had the answer, the sudden change still caught him off guard, making him feel a bit flattered.

A female colleague he had worked with for a year, with whom he had barely spoken, actually took the initiative to give him a small bread, claiming she couldn't finish it and telling him to have it for breakfast so he wouldn't go hungry.

Her words were filled with concern.

Several colleagues he usually had a lukewarm relationship with also found various excuses to come over and ask about the car.

A car worth over a million isn't something just anyone can afford to drive.

Who would take all their savings of a million and spend it on a car?

But Shen Muqing knew that this car, which was giving him a boost in status, was just something his brother-in-law had finished playing with.

Tang Luochuan had come to Gusu, bought the car that same day, stayed for a day, and left it behind when he left.

It was clear that he didn't care at all.

Before going to work this morning, Shen Muqing had sent a message, sending Tang Luochuan a picture of himself washing the car.

He wanted to make his stance clear to Tang Luochuan: "I know this is your car, and I will take good care of it."

His brother-in-law had sent back a photo of Shen Muyan sitting in the rolls-royce cullinan, with the message: "Shen Muyan is doing well; I'm taking her to school."

Tang Luochuan thought this was his brother-in-law making small talk, worried about his sister and afraid that he wouldn't treat Shen Muyan well.

So he had sent a current photo of Shen Muyan.

Afterward, the two chatted a bit, but Shen Muqing was more excited than if he had won five million.

He had heard his sister talk about how things were in the magic city.

But the moment he saw the photo, he felt both envious and shocked...

"Did we really come from the same parents? My sister is being pampered like a princess?"

He thought to himself, seeing Shen Muyan in the photo holding an exquisite breakfast with the shop's logo on it.

He searched for it on a food delivery app; it was 178 yuan per serving.

"Damn... damn it...", even Shen Muqing couldn't help but curse.

However, he was still quite happy; his sister was living well, and he felt at ease.

It was just a little 'sour'.

Looking at the small bread the female colleague had brought, he had a change of heart: the small bread wasn't important, the female colleague was.

He immediately opened the bread and took a bite: "Mmm! So delicious!"

At this moment, he felt more confident. Only after truly experiencing the happiness that money brings did he understand that spiritual fulfillment still needs a material foundation.

...

At the school gate, Tang Luochuan stopped the car.

Right under the watchful eyes of everyone, three girls got out.

"I won't go in!", Tang Luochuan laughed.

Jiang Jinyue rolled her eyes at him: "You could go in, but Counselor Wang Jianguo is probably waiting for you at the entrance of the teaching building."

"Huh? If you put it that way, I really want to see if I can get in."

Tang Luochuan got fired up; he didn't believe it. Could he really be targeted by his counselor?

It had been seven or eight days; Counselor Wang Jianguo had probably forgotten all about it.

He couldn't drive the car in; the school had just issued an order strictly forbidding students from driving into the school.

But that didn't stop students who wanted to drive; right across from the school at the mall, you could rent a parking space for 1,000 yuan a month.

Tang Luochuan parked the car at the mall and then entered the school.

The way was clear and unobstructed; there was no interference. Who cared if he had actually driven home or not?

Until he reached the entrance of the teaching building, where he saw Counselor Wang Jianguo.

Tang Luochuan: "What a coincidence?"

Counselor Wang Jianguo: "...I was waiting for you! Why are you here?"

Tang Luochuan looked around; the other students had already entered the teaching building, and at this moment, only he and Counselor Wang Jianguo were there.

"I...", Tang Luochuan was making something up, his brain spinning rapidly.

Counselor Wang Jianguo, however, showed no mercy: "Luochuan, it's not that I want to lecture you, but you can't be this mischievous... You're not a child anymore... When you were told to go home and reflect, you should have just reflected."

"Wait a minute, Teacher! I'm not here as a student; I'm here as a family member of students Shen Muyan and Jiang Jinyue to... er... check out the campus environment. After all, I'm very worried about my girlfriend's life at school."

"You don't have a clue what school life is like?"

"School has been open for a month, I've attended half a month of classes, and half of that time was spent at home reflecting!", Tang Luochuan said, somewhat agitated, and continued: "A house of over 700 square meters, Teacher Wang! I'm all alone during the day, do you know how empty that is?"

"...", Counselor Wang Jianguo really didn't want to see Tang Luochuan; every word from this kid stabbed at his heart.

As he spoke, Tang Luochuan rolled up his sleeve, and that Richard Mille on his wrist was shining.

Counselor Wang Jianguo didn't recognize the watch, but he knew it must be worth a fortune: "Luochuan, let me be honest with you. Because of you, the trend of comparison in the school has become increasingly prevalent. So, we had to sacrifice you; the school was indeed wrong on that point! However... I have also applied for it, and to compensate you, we will send a teacher to give you private tutoring, so you don't need to worry."

"Teacher Wang... what do you mean? Private tutoring?", Tang Luochuan frowned: "No... no need."

"Listen to me!", Counselor Wang Jianguo interrupted: "We won't arrange for a professor to tutor you. It just so happens that some new assistant teachers have arrived, and when you return, they will help you... At the same time, to test their teaching level, it's a win-win situation. Luochuan, you should work hard."

"Teacher Wang. Heh!", Tang Luochuan chuckled. With his super brain, he had already learned most of those courses; what was there to tutor? He said: "Actually, I've self-studied most of the courses; I don't need..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a slender figure walked over, holding a folder.

The woman was wearing a crisp white shirt, paired with a black hip-hugging skirt, wearing high heels, and a pair of straight, long, black-stockinged legs were particularly eye-catching.

"Teacher Wang!", the girl greeted.

Counselor Wang Jianguo looked back: "Teacher Xia, you came just in time. This is that Tang Luochuan I was telling you about."

Tang Luochuan carefully sized up the girl in front of him, and the girl's gaze also fell upon him.

The two locked eyes.

At this moment, only one thought crossed Tang Luochuan's mind — "This is a teacher?"
