Chapter 623: Chapter 624 Even If Threatened, You Must Endure

Having taken the debt note, Song Xiaodong handed it to Sun Ya, saying, "Is it this one?"

Sun Ya took a careful look and nodded repeatedly.

Song Xiaodong then casually took it back and tore it up, then looked at Chen Zhengtao, who had already picked himself up, and said, "Are you very dissatisfied?"

Chen Zhengtao’s mouth twitched, his eyes were cold, but he said nothing.

Song Xiaodong smiled faintly, but then his smile suddenly vanished, and with a violent lift of his foot, he kicked the desk directly.

Bang!

The desk flew like it had been hit by a tank, slamming heavily against the wall, and instantly shattered into pieces, with splinters flying everywhere.

By the time Chen Zhengtao and the others came to their senses, Song Xiaodong and his company were no longer in the room. The words that Song Xiaodong had said in his ear as he left were still echoing in Chen Zhengtao’s mind.

"If you go after Sun Ya again, I won’t mind coming by to chat with you now and then."

Chen Zhengtao’s mouth twitched, this ’chat’ was clearly a form of intimidation, a threat. As a person of status in Huaqing City, how could he be threatened by others?

However, recalling the power behind Song Xiaodong’s recent kick, his confidence suddenly waned. Although the saying goes ’even a powerful dragon cannot repress a local snake’, that’s subject to the disparity between them. With the strength that Song Xiaodong had shown, even if he got twenty more people involved, he feared they still would not be able to guarantee his safety.

Besides, it is easy to be a thief for one day, but if you have to guard against a thief every day, that would likely cause a mental collapse. This loss, it seems, he would have to just swallow.

When Sun Ya stepped out of Jinyun Company, she still felt like she was in a dream. She thought it was impossible to get out safely and didn’t know what would become of herself if she did escape. Indeed, she had prepared for the worst, even considering the prospect of being used by those men, then being sent somewhere to work as a prostitute.

But none of that had happened, and she left safely. As for the slap she had received, she didn’t care about it at all.

Miao Xuanxuan was still somewhat discontent, saying, "Xiaodong, you’re just letting them go like this? I feel like we let them off too easily. We should have demanded some compensation."

Song Xiaodong said, "Let it be, we can’t be here all the time, and Sun Ya is still around. If we push too hard, and they become desperate, it wouldn’t be good for Sun Ya. Now that we’ve left them some dignity, they won’t look for trouble with Sun Ya in the future."

Miao Xuanxuan nodded, saying, "That makes sense, then consider it their lucky break."

Sun Ya’s mouth twitched, this was their lucky break? Song Xiaodong was really too domineering; she really had no idea who he was.

"Xuanxuan, I really can’t thank you both enough," Sun Ya said, looking at the two with overflowing gratitude.

Miao Xuanxuan laughed, "It’s nothing, we didn’t have anything else to do anyway, just looking for some fun. Oh, let’s go to the hospital to see your mom."

Sun Ya hastily said, "You’ve already done so much for me, it wouldn’t be right to impose on you to visit my mom."

Miao Xuanxuan said, "We’re going for Xiaodong to treat your mother. In the hospital, it will cost a lot, and they might not even be able to cure her."

"He really wants to treat my mom?" Sun Ya was surprised, she thought that Miao Xuanxuan was just making an excuse to check on her situation.

Miao Xuanxuan took Sun Ya by the arm, saying, "Of course, it’s true. Let’s go, and you’ll see what a Divine Doctor is."

The three arrived at the hospital and went straight to Sun Ya’s mother’s ward. It was a four-person ward, quite cramped. Coupled with the family members, there was hardly any room to turn around.

The smell in the room wasn’t very good either, and Miao Xuanxuan frowned as soon as she entered.

Song Xiaodong checked Sun Ya’s mother’s condition but didn’t perform acupuncture there; the three of them then left the patient’s room.

Sun Ya immediately asked anxiously, "How is it?"

Song Xiaodong replied, "For now, the problem isn’t very big, under normal circumstances, there should be no issues within two months."

"Just two months..." Sun Ya’s eyes instantly reddened.

Song Xiaodong’s face darkened as he said, "I didn’t say she only has two months to live."

"Then what do you mean?" Sun Ya quickly clutched Song Xiaodong’s arm, agitated.

Song Xiaodong said calmly, "It’s not very convenient for me to treat her here, and it’s not something that can be cured with just one or two treatments. How about this, transfer your mother to Tiannan City’s First Hospital, I see patients there."

"This..." Sun Ya couldn’t help but hesitate.

Miao Xuanxuan immediately said, "Don’t worry, as long as we get to Tiannan, I guarantee that Dongzi will give you back a healthy mother."

Song Xiaodong nodded and added, "And the costs there will be minimal, you’ll just have to pay some hospitalization fees, and there won’t be a need for many medications, so your burden will be lighter."

Song Xiaodong did not mention that treatment would be free of charge because, first, they were using someone else’s hospital, and second, speaking like this would make Sun Ya feel more at ease.

After looking at Song Xiaodong and recalling his impressive display of power at Jinyun Company, Sun Ya thought such a person couldn’t possibly be there to deceive her, and knowing he was Miao Xuanxuan’s boyfriend made her trust him even more.

After clenching her teeth, Sun Ya quickly made up her mind and said, "Alright! Then... I’ll listen to you guys."

Song Xiaodong nodded and instructed, "Then arrange things here, and when you’re ready to go to Tiannan, just let Xuanxuan know, and I’ll have everything set up for you at the hospital."

Sun Ya saw Miao Xuanxuan and Song Xiaodong out of the hospital, and Miao Xuanxuan said with a smile, "There you go, your two big worries have been taken care of. Don’t forget to attend Cui Yu’s wedding tomorrow."

Sun Ya said awkwardly, "Ah, yes, I really shouldn’t have ruined the mood today, now that I think about it."

Miao Xuanxuan said with a laugh, "It’s fine, everyone understands. But don’t mention today’s events to our classmates, just say someone helped out. I don’t want them asking all sorts of questions and looking at me like I’m a monster."

Sun Ya was stunned for a moment, then nodded emphatically, suddenly full of admiration for Miao Xuanxuan. Such a calm demeanor was truly rare.

After leaving the hospital, Miao Xuanxuan, arm in arm with Song Xiaodong, asked, "Dongzi, where shall we go now?"

Song Xiaodong thought for a moment and suggested, "Let’s just wander around, grab a bite to eat, and then watch a movie. How does that sound?"

Miao Xuanxuan’s eyes narrowed with intense joy as she said, "You’re taking me to see a movie? I thought you would say we should head straight back to the hotel."

"Yes, it’s not every day we get to go out just the two of us. Consider it a date," Song Xiaodong said with a bright smile.

Miao Xuanxuan’s smile grew sweeter as she replied, "Great, let’s go see a movie then. Dongzi, I’ve discovered you’ve become quite romantic."

Seeing the joy that came from the bottom of Miao Xuanxuan’s heart, Song Xiaodong couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty; the way he had interacted with her in the past had been too simple, but he knew it wasn’t too late to start making changes now.
