Chapter 588: Chapter 589: The Big Family Is Just So-So

Miao Xuanxuan shook her head, looking down on Miao Qingqing and said, "Looking at that expression of yours, I despise you. You’re way too biased towards your husband. Being your sister is really dangerous. Who knows, one day, I might end up like Xiao Yingying, becoming your brother-in-law’s little lover."

"Xuanxuan... can you lift your chin a bit? It really hurts," Song Xiaodong finally couldn’t help but grit his teeth and speak up. Xuanxuan’s chin was pressing on his chest, and even if the force wasn’t great, it was right on his ribs, and it was quite uncomfortable.

"Hey, with such well-developed chest muscles, what hurts? Stop pretending. My chin isn’t even complaining about being pressed. Are you trying to change the subject?" Miao Xuanxuan not only did not lift her head, but she even deliberately ground her chin a couple of times.

Song Xiaodong’s face darkened. What on earth was Miao Xuanxuan trying to do? She was given an out, and she still wouldn’t take it.

Miao Qingqing rolled her eyes, saying in annoyance, "Whatever, do what you like, I’m not stopping you."

Miao Xuanxuan burst into laughter and said, "Look at you. If I really did that, you’d disassemble my bones, wouldn’t you? You’re just tough-talking, always have been since we were kids."

Miao Qingqing’s face grew even darker as she said, "Humph, you little brat, you’ve been irritating me since we were kids."

Miao Xuanxuan finally turned her head and settled back down, though Song Xiaodong’s hand had already obediently moved to his side, otherwise having Miao Xuanxuan resting on it would truly worry Miao Qingqing.

Unexpectedly, Miao Xuanxuan directly pulled his arm up and said, "Hey, lift your arm. If you keep it down there, who knows if you’ll secretly touch me elsewhere?" Then leaning back, she rested on his arm again and said, "This way I feel a bit safer, at least you can’t play any tricks."

Though such an action was very intimate, Miao Xuanxuan did it so naturally and openly that not only Miao Qingqing, even Song Xiaodong almost believed it to be genuine.

Slapping Song Xiaodong’s hand lightly, Miao Xuanxuan said, "Stinky brother-in-law, if your hands aren’t honest, then I might just become your wife and make you and my sister’s life hell. I’m really sleepy, I won’t disturb you guys anymore, I’m going to sleep a bit longer." Then, after a yawn, she snuggled against Song Xiaodong and closed her eyes.

Song Xiaodong turned his head and gave Miao Qingqing a wry smile, who also yawned and then snuggled up beside him like Miao Xuanxuan, whispering, "Let’s sleep a bit longer, it’s not even six o’clock yet."

Song Xiaodong nodded and also closed his eyes.

This nap was indeed beautiful. Although Song Xiaodong couldn’t misbehave, having the two sisters by his side was a delightful pleasure that was enough to dissolve one’s soul. He couldn’t help but quickly immerse himself in a dream.

When he woke up, it was already past eight, and Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan were entangled around him like octopuses.

"I didn’t take advantage of you," Song Xiaodong quickly clarified.

Miao Xuanxuan burst into laughter and said, "Look how scared you are, I’m not blaming you. I just wanted to see what it’s like for my sister to sleep beside you. It’s quite nice, really enjoyable. I give you full marks on her behalf."

Having said that, Miao Xuanxuan jumped out of bed and giggled as she ran out.

Song Xiaodong still felt somewhat guilty, but Miao Qingqing seemed quite generous as she said, "Hurry up and get up, can’t bear to part, can you?"

"No, no," Song Xiaodong hurriedly jumped out of bed.

Miao Qingqing sat up and said, "Humph, seeing how well you’ve behaved recently, this is your reward. Don’t expect such treats in the future."

"Yes, yes, I know I shouldn’t think about things I shouldn’t think about."

"That’s more like it." Miao Qingqing gave Song Xiaodong a glare and then also got out of bed and walked out leisurely.

Su Yuya had risen early and outside, she saw Miao Xuanxuan giggling as she ran out first, followed by Miao Qingqing. This made her shake her head secretly, realizing the two sisters were indeed getting along well with Song Xiaodong. However, this was quite a mess. The Su family had already acknowledged the two again; if word got out about this, it would be quite embarrassing for the Su family.

But now, she couldn’t really say anything. Song Xiaodong’s attitude was firm, and at this time, Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan simply considered themselves as part of the Song family. In their hearts, their sense of belonging to the Su family was indeed very weak.

Without a sense of belonging, it was hard for them to consider the Su family’s face, and naturally they wouldn’t take the Su family into account in their actions—this was truly headache-inducing.

After breakfast, Su Yuya said, "All right, I’ll be leaving now, Little Song, you won’t have a problem walking me out, right?"

Miao Xuanxuan immediately said, "Brother-in-law and I will accompany Little Aunt together."

Sun Yuya smiled and said, "No need. It’s fine if Little Song comes alone."

Miao Qingqing then pulled her sister aside and said, "Okay, then let Brother-in-law walk you out." She knew Su Yuya must have something she wanted to say to Song Xiaodong alone.

The car slowly exited the underground parking lot, and Su Yuya kept looking at Song Xiaodong from the corner of her eye. This man surely knew she had something to say, but he remained unresponsive at the moment, an equanimity which Su Yuya quite admired.

"Little Song, have you considered that your decision this time has offended not only the Sun family but also our Su family?"

"Yes, I’m aware."

Su Yuya said, "Then why did you still do it? Do you know the consequences are very serious? Although the Sun family didn’t explicitly say it, I believe, you definitely haven’t faced the real top experts from the Sun family. Otherwise, I fear you wouldn’t have been able to take down Sun Zi’ang."

"So what? A man must do what he must, and refrain from what he must not. If my own sister is being bullied, and my woman is about to be taken away, I must not back down even if I know it’s impossible."

"A real man should prioritize his career; women are just an attachment. When you have achieved great success, will you be short of women by your side?"

Song Xiaodong glanced at Su Yuya and said indifferently, "Home is always a person’s foundation. Without a foundation, even if the external is flourishing, the roots are unstable and will eventually collapse. Besides, as a man, if I can’t even protect my own family, how can I talk about achieving great things?"

Su Yuya frowned and said, "But what you’re up against now is definitely beyond what you can handle. You need to know your limits; not knowing your own strength is just recklessness."

"If I haven’t even tried, how can I know it’s not possible? Moreover... in my eyes, Song Xiaodong, a big family... is just so-so!"

Su Yuya stared at Song Xiaodong for a while before shaking her head and saying, "Then take care of yourself." She knew that her purpose for coming this time had completely failed.

Finished writing Wugeng, tonight I’ll write the old book and also research autonomous admission for my daughter. I’m going to die of exhaustion!
