Chapter 246: Chapter 247 Sisters’ Dilemma

"Hem hem..." Miao Xuanxuan blinked her big eyes, coughed lightly, and said, "Didn’t Dongzi tell you?"

"Tell me what?" Miao Qingqing asked with confusion.

"Tell you that... ha, I don’t know either." Miao Xuanxuan suddenly laughed out loud.

"Hey, Miao Xuanxuan, do you know something?" Miao Qingqing also turned to her side, propped up her head, and glared at Miao Xuanxuan.

Miao Xuanxuan rolled her eyes and said, "You two are already like this, and you’re still asking me about his matters?"

"Xuanxuan, you also know that I didn’t communicate much with him privately before and don’t really understand his business. But you work with him in the same clubhouse, and you’re always playing together. You must know a lot about him, right?"

"What I know is my own business. That’s the bond between us bros, and it’s not the same as the affair between you two."

"Pfft... what’s this about an affair? I told you the process, he forced me."

Miao Xuanxuan disdainfully said, "But the result is still the same, isn’t it? You still kissed, you still fell for him, I’m not wrong, am I?"

"This... I admit, my impression of him has improved a lot now, but regarding his obvious attempt to escape after kissing me, I’m pretty unhappy about it, thinking that there’s something wrong with his character."

Miao Xuanxuan snorted and said, "Can you not always think so poorly of Dongzi? Dongzi has his difficulties that he can’t speak of."

Miao Qingqing widened her eyes and said, "Difficulties he can’t speak of? What difficulties? You know and yet you’re not telling me? Am I not your kin, or are you closer to him?"

"Hehe... of course, you are my kin. We’re twins after all. But it’s better for you to find out on your own, I mean, why should I meddle in this?" Miao Xuanxuan said, trying to get out of bed to escape.

Miao Qingqing grabbed Miao Xuanxuan back and said, "Hurry up and tell me clearly. Are you hiding this from me because you want to be with Dongzi?"

"No! Absolutely not!" Miao Xuanxuan immediately shook her head repeatedly, very decisively.

"Really?" Miao Qingqing stared at Miao Xuanxuan.

Miao Qingqing’s gaze was quite fierce, challenging for the senior executives at the company to maintain eye contact under her scrutiny. At this moment, Miao Xuanxuan quickly caved in, grinned, and said, "Alright, I admit it, I also like Dongzi, but I didn’t intend to compete with you. I just feel like we get along well."

"I knew it..." Miao Qingqing’s mouth twitched, and she said, "Since you admit it, then I feel sorry for you. No, that scoundrel, despite being quite good with you, treated me like that today. It’s simply..." Remembering this, Miao Qingqing felt aggrieved again about Song Xiaodong.

Miao Xuanxuan laughed and said, "We are friends. You two are lovers; of course, it’s different. Okay, he told me he still has some important things to do, so he can’t be in a relationship. That’s why he had to run off back then; otherwise, he wouldn’t know what to say to you."

"So that’s it... What important things?" Miao Qingqing furrowed her brows.

Miao Xuanxuan quickly said, "You should ask him about that. If I were dating him, I would definitely have questioned him thoroughly, but since we’re just good friends, I can’t pry too deeply."

Miao Qingqing nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll ask him later."

"Hehe, looks like I’m going to have a brother-in-law soon."

"Get lost, I’m not getting married this early." Miao Qingqing spat at Miao Xuanxuan, but thinking about what happened with Song Xiaodong that day, her heart couldn’t help but feel a sweet sensation.

"I won’t tease you anymore, I’m going to sleep." Miao Xuanxuan said and ran off, this time Miao Qingqing didn’t stop her.

Miao Xuanxuan returned to her own room, grabbed a plush bear from the bed, and hit it hard twice, huffing, "Song Xiaodong, you big jerk, wanting to go all the way with me that day, and now you dare to take advantage of Miao Qingqing, hmph, you are nothing but a beast, a creature that only thinks with its lower half."

"Humph, you say you can’t be with me? Well, I’d like to see how you explain yourself to Miao Qingqing."

Song Xiaodong was talking to Song Xiaoru at that moment and couldn’t help but sneeze several times in a row.

Song Xiaoru immediately touched Song Xiaodong’s forehead with concern and said, "You’re not catching a cold, are you?"

Song Xiaodong smiled and said, "Of course not, I’m a doctor. If I had any problems, I would have cured myself long ago."

"You have a point. Then, someone must be talking about you again. My brother is so handsome and popular with the girls; there must be plenty of people who talk about you."

Song Xiaodong laughed out loud, but couldn’t help muttering to himself that it must be Miao Qingqing cursing him now.

After chatting and laughing for a bit, Song Xiaodong began to discuss company matters with Song Xiaoru.

Song Xiaoru listened with wide eyes, shaking her head repeatedly and saying, "That won’t work, that won’t work, I don’t have that kind of ability. I’m fine as a regular employee, but to run such a big company, I couldn’t possibly do it."

Song Xiaodong wrapped his arms around Song Xiaoru’s shoulders and gently shook them, saying, "Fine, if you don’t want to go, then don’t. But I’d rather you be the boss there, not having to do much, I just don’t like having you working at someone else’s company, having to please them, it makes my heart ache."

"Then you should go yourself. You’re a man; being a boss is promising."

"I don’t like that kind of work. It’s too tiring. I prefer to do something more relaxed. I’ve already made it clear to Miao Qingqing that if you’re there, you do whatever you want. It’s mostly just to put up a name, to indicate our family’s share in that place."

"I see... that makes sense, considering the amount we invested." Song Xiaoru thought of the money and couldn’t help feeling torn.

Song Xiaodong said, "Anyway, it’s up to you. If you want to go, we’ll go. If you don’t, I don’t care about the money or shares; as long as my sister is happy, that’s all that matters."

Song Xiaoru gave a wry smile and said, "Alright, I’ll go then. But I really don’t know anything. I just hope I don’t mess up."

"No worries, the main thing is Miao Qingqing’s work. Also, you can hire a secretary. Many things can be prepared by the secretary."

"Oh..." Song Xiaoru agreed, adding, "You’re generous, investing so much in Miao Qingqing. Seems like you still like her more."
