Chapter 453: Chapter 454 A Bad Feeling

Miao Qingqing had no reason to refuse such a request, and indeed she had too many questions she wanted to ask Su Yuya, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I’ll contact my sister right away."

Su Yuya said, "Alright, how about this, you can come with me to the hotel. After we finish dinner, we can talk all night, which will also be more convenient."

Song Xiaodong immediately understood Su Yuya’s intention and said, "You must have a lot to talk about, so I won’t invite my aunt out today. I’ll take my aunt out to dinner tomorrow."

Su Yuya nodded, "Little Song, we can chat another time, today I’m stealing your girlfriend away."

"Auntie, you’re too polite. We’ll take our leave first, so we won’t disturb you."

Miao Qingqing actually really wanted Song Xiaodong to give her courage. For some reason, she always felt a pressure when facing Su Yuya. However, there were some things she feared Su Yuya wouldn’t talk about in front of Song Xiaodong, so at this time she could only let Song Xiaodong and Song Xiaoru leave.

Song Xiaodong and Song Xiaoru walked home leisurely. Song Xiaoru shook her head lightly and said, "It’s really unimaginable. Knowing where her daughter is, yet not coming to see her for over twenty years."

Song Xiaodong nodded, "Yeah, I feel this sudden visit from Su Yuya isn’t going to be straightforward. There must be more to it."

Song Xiaoru, frowning, said, "Maybe we’re overthinking it. Perhaps when Qingqing and Xuanxuan’s father was around, their mother couldn’t conveniently take care of them. Now that Miao Qingyuan has passed, the Su family is finally free to acknowledge Qingqing and Xuanxuan."

Song Xiaodong shook his head, "If it were that simple, it should be Qingqing and Xuanxuan’s mother who came to handle this, not some aunt. Miao Qingyuan has been dead for a while now, and as a mother, if she really cared about her children, she probably would have come over earlier. Now, it’s an auntie who’s come, which clearly shows they don’t really care about Qingqing and Xuanxuan."

"Could it be that Qingqing’s mother has some difficulties?"

Song Xiaodong said, "That’s hard to say. When we get back, I’ll investigate a bit. I have a feeling there’s a lot more to this."

Once home, Song Xiaodong went to his room and powered on his computer to access a special website. Only after entering several passwords was he truly able to get into this website.

Song Xiaodong quickly found information about the Su family.

Influential families like the Su family typically have records on this site. Their influence on the state is significant; they could even affect national policy-making, so the nation pays considerable attention to such families.

Contained within were the current scope of the Su family’s influence, the main experiences of important figures, their current positions, and many other aspects.

The girls from Su Yuya’s generation in the Su family also weren’t few in number, totaling up to eight. Seven of them had already married, with spouses who were powerful figures, all quite influential.

Only one’s marital status was listed as single. This person was named Su Yuzhen. Other than her name, which confirmed her affiliation with the Su family, there was no other information available about this woman.

Miao Qingqing had mentioned today that Miao Qingyuan used to call his wife Zhen’er, and since all the women of the Su family were married except this single one, it was clear that she was Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan’s mother.

But there was too little information about Su Yuzhen here to understand what sort of person she actually was. No wonder, as the national focus was surely on the Su family’s sphere of influence and those key figures, and it wouldn’t pay such close attention to every family member, especially an unmarried woman, which would be entirely meaningless to monitor.

After half a day of searching, other than learning some information about the Su Family, there really wasn’t anything useful.

"Brother Dongzi, it’s time to eat," Xiao Yingying walked in and hugged Song Xiaodong’s neck from behind.

Song Xiaodong reached back and wrapped his arms around Xiao Yingying’s legs. Xiao Yingying was only wearing a little nightgown, and her thighs were incredibly smooth, touching them was truly a pleasure.

"Brother Dongzi, stop it, if you keep this up, I won’t be able to resist being naughty," Xiao Yingying gently bit Song Xiaodong’s earlobe.

Song Xiaodong chuckled softly, let go, and stood up, but Xiao Yingying was still clinging to his back. Now, with Miao Qingqing not at home, she felt completely free to be intimate with Song Xiaodong without worrying about her family’s strange looks.

At the dining table, Song Xiaodong briefly shared the findings of his investigation with Song Xiaoru while they ate.

Song Xiaoru said, "Then let’s hope we’re overthinking it."

Song Xiaodong nodded and didn’t say much more. With the situation unclear, there was no need to make malicious assumptions. Maybe the other party was simply concerned about family ties, which would be quite beneficial for Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan.

If there was anything inappropriate, they would deal with it when the time came. As long as Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan didn’t want to go back, even if the Su Family was powerful, could they really force the two to return?

That night, Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan did not contact Song Xiaodong. The next day, Song Xiaodong saw Miao Qingqing in the office.

Although there were some bloodshot in her eyes, she appeared to be quite spirited and excited.

"Xiaodong, I talked a lot with my aunt yesterday. She explained that my mom went through many difficulties. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to visit us, but she couldn’t and didn’t dare. Coming would have just put us in danger. It was still her who fought for the chance for us to acknowledge our ancestors and return to the family. This time, my mom just had an accident that left her paralyzed, preventing her from coming to see us. Can you treat this kind of paralysis?"

Song Xiaodong said, "I need to look at the specific situation. I can’t guarantee whether it’s treatable or not."

Miao Qingqing nodded and said, "Then I’ll go back with my aunt in a couple of days to check on her first, and then I’ll have you come over to take a look."

Song Xiaodong asked, "Are you and Xuanxuan going to the Su Family’s place in a couple of days?"

"Yes, we’re finally going to meet our mother, and we’re both quite impatient," Miao Qingqing said, clenching her fists and looking eager.

Song Xiaodong smiled and said, "That’s good news, I truly should congratulate you."

Song Xiaoru also congratulated Miao Qingqing. They didn’t have parents, so they found it even harder to understand the value of family. But Song Xiaodong couldn’t shake off a feeling that something wasn’t quite right, although he couldn’t pinpoint where it was coming from.

It should be said that this was a kind of sixth sense, and Song Xiaodong’s sixth sense had always been incredibly accurate. On the battlefield, it was this sixth sense that had sensed danger beforehand and allowed him to survive until now.
