Chapter 235: Chapter 235 The Unfathomable Guy

Song Xiaodong refused the Ding family’s warm hospitality and left directly with Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan.

When they left, Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan each held onto one of Song Xiaodong’s arms, which was quite an honor.

Even when they got back into the business car they had come in, Miao Qingqing still squeezed into the back seat with Song Xiaodong, leaving Ding Hailong all alone in the front.

Song Xiaodong rather enjoyed this arrangement; after all, being flanked by two beautiful women with some body contact was, for a man, bliss beyond words.

Ding Hailong watched the three of them chatting and laughing in the back. He didn’t feel like interjecting, but he grew increasingly curious about what exactly the relationship between the Miao sisters and Song Xiaodong was. They seemed pretty close, but this question weighed on his mind silently. Today, he had witnessed Song Xiaodong’s ruthlessness, his medical skill, and his willingness to help a sanitation worker, all of which left Ding Hailong thoroughly confused about what kind of person Song Xiaodong really was.

However, one thing he did know now was that Song Xiaodong was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

When the car stopped outside Miao Qingqing’s residential complex, Song Xiaodong wanted to go straight home, but was forcefully dragged out of the car by Miao Xuanxuan.

Watching the three enter the complex, Ding Hailong shook his head lightly; no matter what, it was certain that the Miao family and Song Xiaodong had a significant relationship. From now on, the Ding family would definitely have to take more care of the Miao family.

Once at Miao Qingqing’s place and settled on the couch, Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan sandwiched him from both sides.

Song Xiaodong, feeling slightly uncomfortable from their stares, said, "Hey, you two, you aren’t planning on playing rough, are you? I’m telling you—I’ll give in if you just take the initiative."

"Go to hell!" Miao Xuanxuan pinched the soft flesh around Song Xiaodong’s waist hard. Since she figured this guy was thick-skinned, even a heavy hand wouldn’t hurt him much, she didn’t hold back at all when striking.

Song Xiaodong yelped exaggeratedly, "Hey, hey, Miao Xuanxuan, you’ve pinched off a chunk of flesh!"

Miao Qingqing resumed her usual cool demeanor, looking at Song Xiaodong and said, "Song Xiaodong, which one is the real you?"

"What do you mean, which one? I am me. Here I am, a whole person, and you’re asking me this—you don’t find it absurd?"

"Stop pretending. I always thought you were just an utterly shameless guy, but who would have known you had such abilities? Most importantly, the ruthlessness and domineering attitude you showed that time made me refuse to believe you are just an ordinary person. You must have had some extraordinary experiences."

Miao Xuanxuan raised her chin proudly, "Of course, Dongzi is no ordinary person."

"So you know about his past?" Miao Qingqing turned to Miao Xuanxuan.

Miao Xuanxuan chuckled, "How would I know that? I just want to ask now." But inside, she felt extremely smug because Song Xiaodong had only shared stories of his past with her, even though she had spoken vaguely, it was enough to show that her relationship with Song Xiaodong was out of the ordinary.

Wait a minute! Why was she so elated to have an extraordinary relationship with Song Xiaodong?

Miao Xuanxuan glanced at Song Xiaodong and then felt a bit depressed; this meant she really did have some feelings for this guy. Yet, even after he had come close to spanking her, he still hadn’t started dating her.

Feeling Miao Xuanxuan’s somewhat resentful gaze, Song Xiaodong could only pretend not to see it. He really couldn’t afford to mess with such a responsible girl right now. If Miao Xuanxuan were like Li Sijie, he definitely wouldn’t have any reservations, but then again, it’s precisely this kind of Miao Xuanxuan that is cuter and more to his liking.

"Dongzi, don’t you want to talk to us about it?" Miao Qingqing asked.

Song Xiaodong chuckled and said, "There’s nothing much to say. I just have exceptional medical skills. But you’ve seen it yourselves, treating diseases really drains my spirit, so I don’t easily offer treatment to others. I usually just believe in fate."

Seeing that Song Xiaodong clearly didn’t want to continue talking, Miao Qingqing tactfully didn’t ask any more and instead said, "Then what you said at the Ding family’s place today, that they should pay you one million a day, that wasn’t serious, was it?"

"Why wouldn’t it be serious?" Miao Xuanxuan’s eyes widened immediately, and she said, "That jerk treated us this way, it’s already good enough that we’re willing to treat them. What’s wrong with asking for some money?"

"Asking for some money..." Miao Qingqing immediately felt a headache coming on and said, "One million a day, that’s thirty million a month, and three hundred and sixty million a year. Do you know how much our family’s total assets are? The entire Miao family’s company assets are just over ten billion. And you’re saying asking for some money?"

"Oh... Now that you put it that way, it does sound like a lot." Miao Xuanxuan stuck out her tongue and also got a scare, realizing it was indeed a lot of money.

Song Xiaodong said indifferently, "They can afford it."

"But isn’t that a bit too high? After all..."

Song Xiaodong directly interrupted Miao Qingqing and said, "Compared to the benefits they’re getting, this amount of money is nothing. It’s also to teach them a lesson so they don’t think they can do whatever they want just because they have some status here."

Miao Qingqing looked at Song Xiaodong. Even though he didn’t sound forceful, there was an undeniable authority about him. Whatever he said was final, and no one could challenge his decision.

"Then you’ll be paid monthly, earning thirty million in a month. Have you thought about what you’ll do with the money?" Miao Qingqing asked tentatively.

Song Xiaodong looked at Miao Qingqing and said, "Are you eyeing this money of mine?"

Miao Qingqing was somewhat embarrassed but still replied frankly, "Indeed, if you have no use for it, why not invest it in our company? The prospects for our company..."

"Okay, let’s settle it then. Later on, just have the Ding family transfer the money directly to you," he said.

"You’re just agreeing to it like that?" Miao Qingqing’s eyes widened in surprise.

"Yes, what else should I do?" Song Xiaodong looked puzzled as he gazed at Miao Qingqing.

"This... This is too casual, isn’t it? It feels like we’re just playing house," Miao Qingqing said somewhat speechlessly, a wry smile on her face. Over thirty million was a significant sum for their company, and here was Song Xiaodong, clearly not caring about it at all.

"Playing house, huh? That sounds fun, why don’t we play along? I’ll play the husband, and you can play the wives?" Song Xiaodong said with a smile, gazing at Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan, his hands already reaching behind their waists and gently embracing them.

"Hmm?" Just then, the door opened, and Miao Qingyuan walked in. Upon seeing the three of them and their positions, he frowned slightly, and his gaze suddenly became sharp.
