Chapter 446: Chapter 447: 2,000,000 Pocket Money

After dropping Miao Xuanxuan off at the foot of the residential complex, Song Xiaodong said, "Xuanxuan, I’m going to see Lin Su’er. I still have to explain this to her. If you go, I’m afraid she’ll feel embarrassed, so..."

"Fine, you go by yourself. Otherwise, you’ll say I’m acting jealous again." Miao Xuanxuan hopped out of the car, waved to Song Xiaodong, and said, "I’m heading back now."

Song Xiaodong said, "Go ahead. Tell Qingqing and my sister that I’ll be back a little later."

"Got it, I know." Miao Xuanxuan said as he walked into the complex.

Only then did Song Xiaodong drive to Lin Su’er’s home.

"Brother Dongzi, how did it go?" Lin Su’er looked at Song Xiaodong with eager eyes, a face full of hope but clearly showing signs of exhaustion.

Song Xiaodong pulled her into his embrace and said softly, "Don’t worry, this time your dad should learn his lesson."

"Ah, it’s settled?" Lin Su’er asked excitedly.

Song Xiaodong, smiling warmly, said, "Yes, I had to resolve Su’er’s issue. Otherwise, how could I face you?"

"Brother Dongzi..." Lin Su’er looked up at Song Xiaodong, her lips trembling with emotion. Then, stretching out her arms, she wrapped them around his neck and kissed Song Xiaodong deeply.

To say courteous words would be too hypocritical; she could only repay Song Xiaodong in this heartfelt manner.

Half an hour later, Lin Su’er was nestled against Song Xiaodong, her forehead covered in sweat, but she was gently wiping his head with a tissue.

Lin Su’er said with a hint of guilt, "Brother Dongzi, I don’t have air conditioning here; I’m sorry you’re all sweaty."

Song Xiaodong laughed and said, "This sweat is indeed a bit uncomfortable. When we were moving, our legs were even sticking together."

Lin Su’er’s cheeks turned slightly red, and she said, "Maybe next time... we should just go out and get a hotel room."

"That’s an option, but knowing that my woman is still living in a place like this, how could I be content? Here’s what we’ll do, you go pick out a house, and I’ll buy it for you. That way, you can live more comfortably."

Lin Su’er hesitated and said, "Buying me a house... maybe we shouldn’t. Perhaps I’ll just install an air conditioner."

"Silly girl, do you feel that by buying you a house, it’s like I’m keeping* you, and that offends your pride?"

Lin Su’er quickly said, "No, not at all, that’s not what I meant. I just feel bad about you spending money on me. If Sister Qingqing finds out and it causes problems between you two, it would be my fault."

"You don’t have to worry about that. I’m financially independent. Spending a little money won’t matter to her or my sister. You can start looking and if you find something suitable, just buy it straight away. I’ll transfer the money to you in a bit."

"So it’s like that... Brother Dongzi, then I..." Lin Su’er didn’t know what to say anymore.

"Su’er, since you’re with me, you’re my girl. Although I can’t make any promises right now, improving your life is my responsibility as a man. Rest assured, even if one day you find someone you truly like and don’t want to be with me, I won’t ask for anything I gave you back. But... cough cough, alright, I admit it, I’m a bit of a male chauvinist, I really can’t bear the thought of you being with someone else."

Seeing the slightly troubled look on Song Xiaodong’s face, Lin Su’er’s eyes curved into crescent moons, and her face was full of a thick smile. She said, "Brother Dongzi, hearing you say that makes me really happy. It shows you care about me, it shows I have a place in your heart. That’s enough for Su’er. No matter what happens in the future, I’ll be good and be your woman, and I won’t cause you any trouble."

"Is that so... Then let’s go again, I want to see if Su’er’s performance is good enough?"

"Don’t... You can’t stay here for so long."

"It’s fine, we’re not in a rush for this bit of time!"

The two of them shared another intimate moment, and this time Lin Su’er also gave it her all, which unsurprisingly left her quite tired. However, luckily she was young, and a woman’s recovery ability in this aspect is super strong, so she was only tired for a little while and after a bit, she was back to normal.

Song Xiaodong briefly discussed her father’s situation with Lin Su’er, who didn’t pity him. Her father, if not faced with something truly fearsome, was really hard to subdue. This was something she was clearer on than anyone else.

Then Song Xiaodong directly transferred two million to Lin Su’er. Seeing the number displayed on the mobile banking app, Lin Su’er was startled and hurriedly said, "Brother Dongzi, why have you given me so much money?"

Song Xiaodong laughed, "It’s not much, just two million. You need more than a million to buy a house, and you should also buy a car to enjoy. It’s got to be a few hundred thousand, otherwise it wouldn’t look good. Even two million might not be enough."

"How would it not be enough? A small house is fine for me; only four or five hundred thousand will do. I don’t even have to buy it outright, I can get a mortgage. I only need about two hundred thousand then. And buying a car... Maybe I shouldn’t. I’ve only just started working. If I buy a car straight away, my colleagues might talk behind my back."

Song Xiaodong was taken aback for a moment, then said apologetically, "Su’er, I’m really sorry. I didn’t think it through and only considered my own feelings. If people talked behind your back, the pressure on you would be immense."

Lin Su’er hastily said, "If it was just people talking, I could ignore it, but quite a few people know I’m quite close to you. If I suddenly became wealthy, they would definitely link me to you. And if such rumors reached Sister Qingqing, that would cause even more trouble for you. So it’s really better for me to keep a low profile."

Song Xiaodong felt both moved and guilty, pulling Lin Su’er into his arms, "Su’er, I’m sorry for letting you down."

"Brother Dongzi, it’s what I chose. To be able to be with you is already my greatest happiness. So, you don’t need to worry about these things at all. I’ll transfer the money back to you," she offered.

"No need, just keep it. Even if you don’t buy a car or flashy things, you can still buy stuff you like, like watches or jewelry. Besides, if your relatives and friends have difficulties, you can help them out, too. Think of it as pocket money I’ve given you."

"Two million in pocket money... I could spend for a lifetime with that," Lin Su’er said sweetly, smiling at Song Xiaodong.

"Ha, if you were to spend it over a lifetime, wouldn’t that mean I’d failed as a man? Let’s not say over a month, but you should spend it all in a year, otherwise, it means you look down on your man here," he said jokingly.

Lin Su’er opened her mouth, then gave a wry smile, "Then how could I possibly spend it all?"
