Chapter 640: Chapter 641 Everyone Left

"Cripple?" Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan, along with a few others, all turned to look at Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong took a deep breath and slowly said, "My meridians have been severely damaged, indeed, I am no longer the person I used to be."

Su Yuya sneered and said, "Did you hear that? Do you think he is still the man who could stand up to our Su Family? He is not only incapacitated in Kung Fu but has now become a target of scorn. No one will protect him any longer; now anyone could easily deal with him."

Miao Qingqing had always been relatively calm, but at this moment, she impulsively said, "If that’s the case, then I can’t leave Dongzi. I have to face the difficulties together with him."

Miao Xuanxuan immediately followed, "Indeed, we can’t abandon Dongzi like this!"

Song Xiaodong took a deep breath and said, "Qingqing, Xuanxuan, you two follow your auntie first. Staying with me now will not only bring you no benefits but will also place you in great difficulty. Moreover, it will be extremely dangerous."

Miao Qingqing’s eyes sharpened, and a commanding presence burst forth from her as she said in a deep voice, "Song Xiaodong, do you think we are the kind of cowards who flee the moment the battle starts?"

"Of course not. Don’t worry, you two return to the Su Family first. Once this crisis is over, I will come to take you back. The Su Family owes me, and I will certainly take back what is ours."

Song Xiaodong then turned to Su Yuya and spoke slowly, "You can take Qingqing and Xuanxuan away, but if you Su Family dares to force them into doing anything against their will, as long as I, Song Xiaodong, live even a single day, I will ensure your Su Family is reduced to ashes."

"Humph, such grand words. Take them away," Su Yuya waved her hand dismissively.

"No! I want to stay with Dongzi!" Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan both clung to Song Xiaodong’s arm.

The two women behind Su Yuya took just two steps to reach Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan, and directly said, "Miss, please follow us."

"We won’t go!" Both of them were very resolute.

Su Yuya frowned and said, "Knock them out and take them away."

The two women hesitated not a moment in striking the back of Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan’s necks. Both instantly went limp and lost consciousness.

Song Xiaodong did not stop them; with his current condition, he simply didn’t have the ability to intervene. His gaze fixed sternly on Su Yuya, he said, "What I say... I can do."

Su Yuya snorted and said, "You won’t have that chance." Then with a wave of her hand, a line of people had already taken Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan away.

Song Xiaodong watched them leave, not uttering a word. His hands clenched into fists, and his heart bled. For a once powerful person, the sudden loss of the ability to protect his own women was an immense blow.

"Brother Dongzi!" Xiao Yingying came over and hugged Song Xiaodong’s arm, whispering softly, "Don’t be sad. When you are better, we will take Sister Qingqing and Sister Xuanxuan back."

"Mhm!" Song Xiaodong nodded and then took a deep breath, saying, "Now that they have been taken back, it might not be a bad thing, possibly even a form of protection for them."

Just then, a knock on the door sounded again, and this time it was Xiao Yingying’s father, Xiao Haiqing.

Song Xiaodong smiled faintly and said, "Are you here to take Yingying back?"

Xiao Yingying immediately hugged Song Xiaodong’s arm tightly and said anxiously, "Dad, Sister Xiaoru and Dongzi are not related by blood, and this time it was clearly a setup. I want to support Brother Dongzi through this tough time; I can’t go back."

Xiao Haiqing’s expression was dark when he came in, but after hearing Xiao Yingying speak, his face softened instantly and he said, "You should at least let me sit down and talk, right?"

Seeing her father’s mood lighten, Xiao Yingying breathed a sigh of relief and immediately went over to take his arm, saying, "I knew my dad is the most reasonable person."

Xiao Haiqing sat down and looked at Song Xiaodong, "Dongzi, it seems this matter has more twists than I knew. I was misled as well. I did come here in anger just now and I am indeed sorry."

Song Xiaodong smiled faintly and said, "That’s a normal human reaction, I can understand."

Xiao Haiqing nodded and said, "Dongzi, I do need to take Yingying away though. This crisis is no small matter, and if Yingying stays with you, my company will definitely face tremendous pressure. I wouldn’t be able to explain it to the other shareholders."

"I won’t go!" Xiao Yingying immediately frowned, her face becoming stern.

Song Xiaodong smiled faintly and said, "Yingying, Uncle Xiao is right, this crisis can’t be resolved just by being headstrong. Having you here really isn’t beneficial. We can’t fail to consider others, so you should go back. After some time, I will bring you back, and I don’t think Uncle Xiao will refuse."

Xiao Haiqing nodded decisively, "Of course not. As soon as you’ve resolved this crisis, I will personally bring Yingying back. And I still mean what I said: Xiao Haiqing’s properties will eventually be yours. This, I will never change."

Song Xiaodong was truly moved and said, "Uncle Xiao, for your words alone, I will never let Yingying down in the future. The affairs of the Xiao Family are my affairs."

Xiao Haiqing let out a hearty laugh, "I really didn’t misjudge you. Even facing such a great crisis, you haven’t become despondent, you still have such fighting spirit. I believe you can certainly make it."

"But... Dad, if I leave now, who will comfort Brother Dongzi?" Xiao Yingying said, unwilling to go.

Xiao Haiqing patted Xiao Yingying’s hand and said, "A strong man does not need a woman’s consolation; they are to protect women. You don’t need to worry about this."

Xiao Yingying looked at Song Xiaodong and finally bit her lip, softly saying, "Brother Dongzi, I’ll go back first. Rest assured, ’only when the seas dry up and stones rot away will I ever leave you.’"

Though it was a line from a Qiongyao drama, when Xiao Yingying said it at that moment, it carried an indescribable emotion that moved Song Xiaodong.

"Yingying, you will always be in my heart!" Song Xiaodong couldn’t say such a dramatic line, but he did speak the most sincere words.

Xiao Yingying nodded, wiped her tears, and walked out with her father’s hand in hers.

Song Xiaodong watched them leave, then turned to look at Song Xiaoru, who was crying with tears streaming down her cheeks, soaking a spot on her trousers, oblivious to it.

Song Xiaodong went over to Song Xiaoru, gently wrapped his arms around her shoulders, and Song Xiaoru immediately leaned weakly against him, bursting into tears!
