Chapter 583: Chapter 584 We Are Song Family Members

The next day was a weekend, and everyone was at home. Around 9 a.m., while everyone was in the living room, a knock suddenly echoed.

Song Xiaodong immediately stood up, went to the door, and looked outside through the peephole. He had to be cautious now, as the Sun family wouldn’t let things settle easily, fearing that they might confront him at any moment.

Outside were three people, among whom Song Xiaodong recognized Su Yuya, the young aunt of Miao Xuanxuan and Miao Qingqing.

Song Xiaodong turned his head and said, "Qingqing, Xuanxuan, your aunt is here." He prepared them mentally before opening the door.

"Auntie, how come you’re here?" Song Xiaodong greeted with a polite smile on his face.

"Just came to see you all," Su Yuya replied with a slight smile.

"Please come in," Song Xiaodong said, ushering in the three people.

Miao Xuanxuan and Miao Qingqing greeted but were obviously not as close as before.

Su Yuya didn’t mind and said, "Qingqing, Xuanxuan, this is Su Chengquan, my third brother. You should call him ’Third Uncle’. This is Su Qingyuan, your cousin."

Although Miao Xuanxuan and Miao Qingqing had visited the Su Family, they had hardly known any other members, and this was the first time they met these two. Nonetheless, as elders, both greeted them.

Song Xiaoru and Xiao Yingying greeted them as well before stepping aside, clearly something was up for discussion that would be inconvenient in their presence.

Everyone settled down, with the three members of the Su family sitting on the central long couch, while Song Xiaodong sat on a separate sofa to one side. Miao Qingqing sat on one of the armrests, her hand on Song Xiaodong’s shoulder, and Miao Xuanxuan similarly sat on the other armrest, mimicking his sister’s action by placing his hand on Song Xiaodong’s shoulder.

This caused Su Yuya to slightly frown. Su Chengquan and Su Qingyuan looked solemn, but Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan remained calm. Since they had declared last time they were with Song Xiaodong, they now maintained the same stance, not knowing if the Su family might plan another arranged match for Miao Xuanxuan.

When everyone was seated, Miao Qingqing asked with a smile, "Auntie, Third Uncle, did you come all this way for something important?"

Su Yuya sighed deeply and after giving Song Xiaodong a significant look, she said, "You all have gotten into big trouble this time."

Miao Qingqing replied, "Auntie, please enlighten us."

Su Yuya said, "Sun Zi’ang was killed, and he did it, didn’t he?"

Miao Qingqing calmly said, "Exactly, Sun Zi’ang nearly drove Dongzi’s sister to death. It was entirely his fault."

Su Qingyuan slapped the sofa armrest, shouting, "This is outrageous! Sun Zi’ang was a direct descendant of the Sun family. Now that he has killed Sun Zi’ang but splashed the dirt on our Su family, they are chasing to hold us accountable. What right has Song Xiaodong to make us, the Su family, carry this blame?"

Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan’s expressions darkened at the same time. As Miao Xuanxuan was about to speak, Miao Qingqing gave him a look. She knew Miao Xuanxuan was about to retort, but she had another idea in mind. If the Sun family was seeking justice, only a big family like the Su family could contend with them. If the Su family managed to handle this, it wouldn’t be such a bad outcome.

Miao Qingqing responded, "How can you say that? We don’t know a thing."

Su Qingyuan yelled angrily, "What are you playing dumb for, killing Sun Zi’ang and then framing our Su Family? And you still act innocent here. Our Su Family has really suffered a disaster. Your mother has already brought trouble upon the Su Family, and you two are no different; like mother, like daughter."

Miao Xuanxuan suddenly stood up, eyes blazing, and pointed at Su Qingyuan, shouting, "What did you say? Say that again if you dare!"

Su Yuya hastily said, "Qingyuan, don’t talk nonsense."

Su Qingyuan sneered, "Am I wrong? You are just like your disabled mother, a catastrophe-bringer for our Su Family!"

"You... you..." Miao Xuanxuan pointed at Su Qingyuan, her lips trembling with anger. Miao Qingqing felt the same; these words insulted not only them but also their mother. It was utterly intolerable.

"Still know how to get angry ?" Su Qingyuan curled his lips and then added sarcastically, "You two shameless women, mingling with a man like that, have utterly disgraced our Sun Family. If I were the head of the Su Family, I would never let you step foot in the Su Family’s door again."

With a snap, the room suddenly fell silent—Song Xiaodong had suddenly burst forth, raising his hand to deliver a resounding slap to Su Qingyuan’s face.

After a dozen seconds or so, Miao Xuanxuan loudly exclaimed, "Well hit!"

"You... you dare hit me?" Su Qingyuan looked at Song Xiaodong in disbelief.

Song Xiaodong looked at Su Qingyuan coldly and said slowly, "Shut your foul mouth. If you dare to spout nonsense in my house again, I’ll throw you out."

Frantic with anger, Su Qingyuan yelled, "You’re threatening me? You actually dare to threaten me? Do you know who I am? Do you believe that with just one word, I can make you die without even knowing how?"

"I’ve heard that line before too," Song Xiaodong said indifferently, then turned and sat back down.

Miao Xuanxuan saw that Su Qingyuan’s face had turned extremely ugly. Song Xiaodong’s remark was unequivocally telling him that just as he could kill Sun Zi’ang, he could kill him, Su Qingyuan, as well.

This made Miao Xuanxuan suddenly feel exhilaratingly unbridled. She shifted on the couch, sliding down to sit on Song Xiaodong’s lap, then kissed him on the cheek with a "smack," saying, "Xiaodong, you are so handsome."

Su Yuya frowned and said, "What are you two doing? At the end of the day, you are still from the Su Family."

Holding Miao Xuanxuan by the waist, Song Xiaodong said placidly, "You’re wrong. My surname is Song, and they are my women, making them now my... Song family members!"

His voice wasn’t loud, but it brimmed with authority. Miao Xuanxuan, intoxicated, leaned limply against Song Xiaodong, saying, "Xiaodong, I love you to death."

Miao Qingqing was also emotionally stirred, thinking, what woman wouldn’t like such a commanding man. She took a deep breath and said, "Aunt, uncle, following one’s husband upon marriage; though we have not formally married, we have already been together for some time. So, Xiaodong is right; we are already members of the Song family, and Su Family... at most that’s our maternal home. We greet each other, and that’s kinship. As for the affairs of the Song family, please let’s not have the Su Family interfere too much."

Su Yuya and Su Chengquan both frowned deeply, and although Su Qingyuan opened his mouth, wanting to speak, Song Xiaodong’s cold gaze made him swallow his words back down.
