Chapter 1033: Chapter 1034: Li Sijie’s Parents Arrived

Some readers saw mistakes in the previous chapter; actually, it’s been corrected long ago, but due to synchronization issues, you’re still seeing the wrong version. I just asked the editor, and you need to delete the book from your shelf and add it again to see the normal version.

Song Xiaodong received a call from Song Xiaoru on the way home.

“Sis!” Song Xiaodong put on his headset. Even though his driving skills are good, using a headset while driving makes talking more convenient. Besides, he never liked taking privileges; he’s still been abiding by what should be followed.

“Xiaodong, Sijie’s parents are here.”

Song Xiaodong was taken aback, saying, “What, they arrived?”

Song Xiaoru replied, “Yes, they suddenly showed up, giving us quite a scare. Everyone’s ready now, just don’t spill the beans when you get here.”

Song Xiaodong quickly said, “I got it. They haven’t found anything, right?”

“No, we’ve assigned them to a guest room farthest from the main villa, and reminded the maids to notify us whenever they come out.”

Song Xiaodong’s mouth twitched a bit, saying, “Why does this feel like preparing for a big battle?”

“Well, there’s no choice. We can’t have any glitches now. If Sijie gives birth later on, maybe things will get easier.”

“Alright, I’ll be careful.”

After hanging up the phone, a wry smile appeared on Song Xiaodong’s face. Li Sijie’s parents aren’t easy to deal with. If they find out he has so many wives now, they might angrily take Li Sijie away.

After nightfall, Song Xiaodong returned to Minghe. After parking the car, Miao Xuanxuan walked up to him.

“Where are Sijie and her parents now?” Song Xiaodong asked.

Miao Xuanxuan first checked the surroundings before cautiously saying, “They’re all in the arranged villa, and Sijie’s accompanying them too.”

“Do you really need to act like it’s a warzone?” Song Xiaodong hugged Miao Xuanxuan’s waist and asked with a smile.

Miao Xuanxuan quickly withdrew Song Xiaodong’s hand, saying, “Let go, don’t mess around. If Sijie’s parents happen to see, you’re dead meat.”

“Why do you all seem so nervous?” Song Xiaodong found it a bit funny.

Miao Xuanxuan rolled her eyes at Song Xiaodong, saying, “How can’t I be nervous? Sijie has long said, her parents are very traditional people. If they know the truth, they’ll definitely disagree.”

Song Xiaodong said, “But it shouldn’t be like this, right?”

“Being careful is always a good thing; we can’t bring any trouble to Sister Sijie. Hold yourself back, don’t get handsy the moment you see us.”

Song Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, “Alright.”

Arriving at the farthest guest room, which is several hundred meters away from the main villa, the place is quite elegant.

Li Sijie and her parents were sitting in the living room. As he entered, Li Sijie and her parents stood up.

Song Xiaodong hurriedly went up, saying, “Uncle and Aunt, you’re here. Why didn’t you inform me in advance, so I could pick you up?”

Li Sijie’s father, Li Jianguo, immediately replied, “That would be too much trouble. We didn’t have anything pressing, so we came on our own.” He seemed somewhat reserved.

Song Xiaodong quickly said, “Even if I’m busy, I could send someone to pick you up. Otherwise, it seems too impolite.”

Li Sijie’s mother was quite satisfied with Song Xiaodong’s attitude, smiling, saying, “No need, we don’t go for anything too special.”

Once everyone sat down, Song Xiaodong immediately said, “Sijie, why did you arrange Uncle and Aunt in this villa, you should’ve chosen one of the most luxurious rooms for them.”

Li Sijie was momentarily stunned, thinking that wouldn’t work; those villas are too close to the main villa.

Li Jianguo laughed heartily, saying, “This is already excellent. I find it quite peaceful, fitting our tastes. You all shouldn’t fuss over it.”

Song Xiaodong immediately apologized, saying, “Now that you’re here, please don’t be overly polite. Treat this as your own home, or else I’d be a poor host.”

Li Sijie’s mother quickly said, “We’re family, there’s no need for formalities. Keep those guest rooms for your guests, we’re happy here, truly.”

Li Sijie then understood what Song Xiaodong was implying. He was using tact, knowing her parents wouldn’t switch rooms, while showing sincerity.

“Little Song, I never imagined your house would be so big.” Li Sijie’s mother sighed.

Song Xiaodong smiled, saying, “It’s indeed a bit big. I lucked out, this used to be the property of a large family. Later, as I joined, it became my home. It’s more a symbol of status, so it’s technically not my sole possession.”

“I see… I thought it was all yours.”

Song Xiaodong smiled slightly, saying, “As long as I don’t leave, it’s always mine. So, Uncle and Aunt, please don’t feel anything is amiss.”

“Little Song, may I ask a somewhat inappropriate question—how much money do you actually have?” Li Sijie’s mother curiously inquired.

Li Jianguo immediately stiffened his face, saying, “Why do you ask that?” But there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

Song Xiaodong chuckled and said, “I have at least a few billion.”

“A few billion…” Li Jianguo and his wife exchanged glances, even though they knew Song Xiaodong was wealthy, hearing such numbers still shocked them.

Li Jianguo coughed lightly, saying, “Little Song, that feels quite unbelievable. You have such resources; you could have any woman you want, yet you’re with our Sijie…”

Song Xiaodong held Li Sijie’s hand, softly saying, “Uncle and Aunt, rest assured about this. My relationship with Sijie is genuine; maybe it’s fate. I truly like Sijie, won’t mind her past, and we already have a child, you should indeed feel assured.”

Li Jianguo and his wife exchanged looks of satisfaction.

After chatting for a while, Li Jianguo said, “I want to go out for a walk. At home, I walk every evening, now I feel uncomfortable staying still.”

Song Xiaodong immediately said, “Okay, I’ll accompany Uncle and Aunt around the yard.”

The four of them left the small villa and started walking around the garden. Even though it’s dark, the garden is well-lit, not at all dim.

While walking, two people appeared in Song Xiaodong’s sight—Lin Shu and Zhong Chuling, those two little girls.

“Uncle!” With a charming cry, both ran towards Song Xiaodong, Lin Shu pouncing at him a few meters away…
