Chapter 774: Chapter 775: Modern Wei Xiaobao

Hearing everyone’s warm concern, Li Sijie was quickly overwhelmed with emotion. She had thought she was walking into a storm, but as it turned out, it was a gentle breeze and a light rain, and she might even see clearing skies. The changes in her life had become almost too much for Li Sijie to believe.

Song Xiaoru said, "Sijie, since you’re alone anyway, come with us to Minghe. That way, we can all look after you."

Li Sijie said in surprise, "Ah? Go to Minghe? I’m going too?"

Miao Qingqing immediately said, "Yes, all of us are going to Minghe. How could we leave you here by yourself?"

Li Sijie was quite tempted, especially since she was pregnant. Of course, she hoped to be with Song Xiaodong. "But what about my club?"

Miao Xuanxuan chuckled and said, "Just sell the club. Dongzi has too many properties over there. After you have the baby, if there’s something you want to do, you can do it. If you want to run a club, run a club, or do something else if you prefer."

Miao Qingqing added, "Yes, we are all going over to help out. Haven’t you seen that I’ve even left my company behind?"

"This... alright!" Li Sijie was decisive. Although her career was important to her, now that she was pregnant, maternal love instantly surpassed her ambition. Nothing was more important than her child now.

Having made the decision, they set off directly, bought two more plane tickets, and took Li Sijie and her nanny back to Minghe together.

Upon arriving at the Su Family’s home in Minghe, Li Sijie’s reaction was almost identical to Cheng Xiaoyue’s; she too was deeply impressed by the grandeur of the Su household. She had never imagined that one day she would live in such a home.

Aside from Shui Qingyue and Shui Qinghe, the rest of the people in Song Xiaodong’s house were brought over by Tiannan, all of whom Li Sijie recognized.

Seeing Song Xiaodong bringing back Song Xiaoru, everyone was very excited. Song Xiaodong was somewhat embarrassed since she used to be his sister, after all, and these people were her younger siblings.

"This is Shui Qingyue," Song Xiaodong introduced to Song Xiaoru and Miao Qingqing.

"Sister Xiaoru, Sister Qingqing, hello!" Shui Qingyue came up to greet them quickly, still somewhat awkward. She knew that Song Xiaoru held a transcendent status in this family, and Miao Qingqing was the most assertive among the women in the house. To win over these two women’s approval was to truly integrate into the family.

Song Xiaoru and Miao Qingqing were also sizing up Shui Qingyue. They could instantly feel her grace and gentleness, indicative of a well-bred lady—leaving them with a favorable first impression. Plus, having already heard about her from Song Xiaodong, they both greeted Shui Qingyue with smiles.

"This is Shui Qinghe, Qingyue’s cousin," Song Xiaodong continued the introductions.

"Hello, sisters. I’m here for treatment. Please don’t misunderstand," Shui Qinghe said, sticking out her tongue playfully yet also carrying a hint of innocence, not daring to be as mischievous as usual.

"President Li, what brings you here?" Xiao Yingying looked towards Li Sijie, obviously surprised.

Lin Su’er was also puzzled; she hadn’t heard Song Xiaodong mention bringing Li Sijie over.

Li Sijie’s face turned awkward all of a sudden.

Smiling, Song Xiaodong said, "Sijie is pregnant with my child; you’re all going to be mothers."

"Wow, really?" Xiao Yingying immediately exclaimed.

"Of course, it’s true," Song Xiaodong answered with a smile.

Xiao Yingying rushed over, reaching her hand out to touch Li Sijie’s belly.

Miao Xuanxuan swiftly pulled her back, saying, "Hey, don’t be so touchy; don’t hurt my son."

"Your son?" Xiao Yingying curiously looked at Miao Xuanxuan.

Miao Xuanxuan said proudly, "Yeah, Sijie’s child is also Dongzi’s child, and naturally, he’s everyone’s child, isn’t he? Is there anything wrong with me calling him my son?"

"So it can’t be a daughter?"

Miao Xuanxuan, grinning, said, "A daughter would be fine too, but I’d prefer a son; he’d be as handsome as Dongzi."

Song Xiaodong immediately puffed up his chest in pride.

Miao Qingqing gave him a disdainful look and said, "I think it’s better to have a daughter. If the son is a womanizer like his dad, we’d all have headaches in the future."

Song Xiaodong’s face was suddenly covered in black lines, and obviously, this was a topic she couldn’t join in on right now.

Seeing Song Xiaodong’s embarrassed look, everyone burst into laughter, and even Li Sijie relaxed amid the laughter, seeming to find this family easier to fit into than she had imagined—much more relaxed.

In the evening, the main villa’s dining table was heaped with dishes, and Song Xiaodong looked around with a smile on her face.

Xiao Yingying, biting her chopsticks, giggled and said, "Brother-in-law, I feel like you’re the modern Wei Xiaobao."

"Really though," Xiao Yingying’s eyes swept around before adding, "It just so happens to be seven wives."

Song Xiaoru, Miao Qingqing, Miao Xuanxuan, Lin Su’er, Xiao Yingying, Li Sijie, and Shui Qingyue—it was exactly seven, no more, no less.

"But..." Xiao Yingying gnawed on her chopsticks before continuing, "Wei Xiaobao’s seven wives weren’t as good as us. We all followed Brother Dongzi willingly, not deceived or coerced like Wei Xiaobao’s women."

Miao Xuanxuan laughed and said, "You do resemble Shuang’er—devoted and adorable to Dongzi."

Xiao Yingying held her chin up and declared, "That’s right, and Sister Xiaoru is Su Quan, making Brother Dongzi both respectful and familial."

Then she looked around and added, "Sister Qingqing and Sister Xuanxuan are like Fang Yi and Mu Jianping; Lin Su’er is like Zeng Rou. Oh, there’s also Ke and Princess Jianning. Hehe, that just leaves Sister Sijie and Sister Qingyue to work it out between you two."

Miao Xuanxuan chimed in, "Pfft, we don’t have a willful and spoiled Princess Jianning in our family. If we did, we’d definitely kick her out."

Everyone was chuckling and joking; the atmosphere was indescribably harmonious.

Time quickly passed, and it was after nine when everyone prepared to rest. Then, looking at each other, they suddenly realized—with so many women, how would they sleep at night?

Xiao Yingying winked at Song Xiaodong and said, "Brother Dongzi, dare you take on the challenge of ’Night with Seven Ladies, Sleep in One Big Bed’?"

"Pfft!" Everyone was speechless, and though Song Xiaodong wanted to show off a bit, he eventually laughed it off with a sheepish chuckle.

Miao Qingqing cleared her throat and said, "Since we’re all here, let’s talk about it. My idea is to rotate two people per night; it will be good for everyone."

Xiao Yingying immediately chimed in, "Then let’s draw lots."

Shui Qingyue quickly said, "Count me out for now, I haven’t... You go first... you go first..."

Miao Qingqing and Song Xiaoru were both surprised; Shui Qingyue had been around for a while, and it was rare that she and Song Xiaodong hadn’t consummated her relationship yet.
