Chapter 770: Chapter 771: Cheng Xiaoyue Enters the Su Family

Cheng Xiaoyue sat in Su Qingmiao’s car, her mind in constant turmoil. She had wanted to ask Su Qingmiao where they were heading, but as the words reached her lips, she suddenly didn’t want to ask anymore. Instead, she was curious to see where Su Qingmiao would take her.

After more than half an hour, the car stopped in front of a large gate. Looking at the tall surrounding walls, the imposing gate, and the gatekeepers who looked like spears, she doubted if she had arrived at some military compound, though the guards were neither in police nor military uniforms.

Su Qingmiao rolled down the window and exchanged a few words with the gatekeepers; then the large iron gate slowly opened, and Su Qingmiao drove through.

It was already dark, but there were street lamps on both sides of the road that were closely spaced and very bright. Cheng Xiaoyue could make out various landscapes on either side, which, although somewhat hazy, clearly composed a garden.

Is this an elite family’s home?

The car stopped in a parking area, and then Su Qingmiao personally came over to open the car door for Cheng Xiaoyue, respectfully saying, "Madam, my car can only go this far. Please alight from the car."

"Madam..." Cheng Xiaoyue was shocked by this address in her heart. She knew Su Qingmiao must have misunderstood something, but she really didn’t want to correct it now. She faintly felt that this title of ’Madam’ was because of Song Xiaodong.

Cheng Xiaoyue followed Su Qingmiao into the yard for another five or six minutes before they arrived in front of the main villa.

Then she saw Lin Su’er sitting at the villa entrance. Upon seeing her approach, Lin Su’er stood up to greet her.

Su Qingmiao immediately said, "Lady Lin, I’ve brought her back safely."

Lin Su’er smiled slightly and replied, "Thank you for your efforts."

"It was no trouble at all. Sun Zilang from the Sun family reacted quite quickly. Before I could even begin to explain, he guessed that she was from the Family Head and was quite frightened. However, Lady Cheng, being kind-hearted, didn’t take it to heart."

Lin Su’er was momentarily taken aback, then nodded and said, "Hmm, I’ll speak to the Family Head about this later."

"Alright. I’ll be taking my leave now," said Su Qingmiao, turning and quickly leaving.

"Xiaoyue, come in and sit," Lin Su’er politely invited Cheng Xiaoyue.

Cheng Xiaoyue, still dazed, followed Lin Su’er into the living room. Observing the antique and grand atmosphere of the living room, Cheng Xiaoyue was momentarily lost in thought. This was indeed the home of top-tier wealthy people.

Just after sitting down, Cheng Xiaoyue’s phone rang. Lin Su’er immediately said, "Go ahead and take the call."

Lin Su’er picked up the phone, saw Song Xiaodong’s number, and quickly answered.

"Xiaoyue, I was just showering, what’s up?"

"Oh, I ran into some trouble earlier, but Sixth Young Master Su sorted it out for me."

"Oh, Little Six sorted it out, that’s good. Everything alright now?"

"I... I’m at the Su family residence."

"Oh?"

"I’m with Lin Su’er."

"Pfft! Alright, I’m coming down right now."

After hanging up, Cheng Xiaoyue turned her gaze towards the staircase. From what Song Xiaodong said, no, from the fact that Su Qingmiao brought her here, she had already figured out Song Xiaodong lived here.

But she still couldn’t believe it. How could Song Xiaodong, so young, possibly be the Family Head of the Su family?

Song Xiaodong’s figure swiftly appeared, and all her speculations turned into reality.

Cheng Xiaoyue stared at Song Xiaodong, dumbfounded, her mind completely blank.

"Hey, why such a look?" Song Xiaodong waved his hand in front of Cheng Xiaoyue’s eyes.

"I..." Cheng Xiaoyue shuddered, and then her lips twitched a few times as she said, "Big Brother Song, I... really didn’t expect you to be so formidable."

Song Xiaodong laughed and said, "It was just a fortunate coincidence, what troubled did you encounter just now?"

Cheng Xiaoyue quickly told Song Xiaodong about what had happened just prior.

Song Xiaodong initially frowned, but when he heard that Su Qingmiao had made Sun Zilang weak at the knees, he couldn’t help but laugh as well.

"Let it be, since he didn’t do anything to you, I can’t really do much to him either. After all, we are in a partnership with the Sun family right now; I can’t be too excessive."

"Yes, yes, let’s just let it go," Cheng Xiaoyue nodded repeatedly, yet she was extremely pleased inside. If she had been hurt, wouldn’t that mean Song Xiaodong would have stood up for her?

"Alright, it’s getting late, you should head to rest early too. Su’er, help arrange a place for Little Yue in the villa next door."

Lin Su’er nodded and said directly to Cheng Xiaoyue, "Little Yue, come with me."

Cheng Xiaoyue nodded, said "good night" to Song Xiaodong, and followed Lin Su’er out of the villa.

"Lady Lin, I’m really troubling you," Cheng Xiaoyue politely said on the way.

Lin Su’er smiled and said, "No need to be polite, we are both from Tiannan, practically fellow townsfolk."

"Ah, you’re also from Tiannan?"

"Yes, I came here with Brother Dongzi."

"Oh, I have a question I’d like to ask, but I’m not sure if it would be inappropriate."

Lin Su’er smiled and said, "Go ahead and ask."

Cheng Xiaoyue cautiously asked, "This... Since Big Brother Song’s surname is Song, shouldn’t you be called Lady Song?"

Lin Su’er turned towards Cheng Xiaoyue and then said, "Since Big Brother Song has multiple wives, just calling each Lady Song wouldn’t be clear, so family members refer to us by our own surnames."

"Ah? Multiple wives? Is Miao Qingqing also one?"

Lin Su’er nodded and said, "Yes, you’ll meet her tomorrow, and you’ve seen most of them already."

"Seen already..." Cheng Xiaoyue paused for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed, "Ah, are they the ones I saw at the banquet the other day?"

"Yes, Brother Dongzi doesn’t like to show off, so apart from people like the Sun family, not many in Minghe know his real identity."

Cheng Xiaoyue quickly said, "I understand, I absolutely won’t say anything."

By this time, the two had arrived at a small villa, where a housekeeper greeted them. Lin Su’er gave a quick instruction, and the housekeeper led Cheng Xiaoyue inside.

Cheng Xiaoyue felt that this must be a guest room, but it was no less lavish than a 5-star hotel suite, which spoke volumes about the Su family’s vast wealth.

She didn’t sleep well that night, constantly thinking about Song Xiaodong. The fact that Song Xiaodong held such great power truly frightened her, and then she thought about how Song Xiaodong even had several wives.

This gave her a sudden impulse. If Song Xiaodong already had several wives, would one more really matter?

But she only dared entertain the thought secretly. Song Xiaodong could have any woman he wanted; she had nothing particularly outstanding about her, so how could she possibly have such a chance!
