Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Be careful of that guy
Miao Xuanxuan had a great time today and chattered with Song Xiaodong all the way home, which made Song Xiaodong quite fond of Miao Xuanxuanâs cheerful disposition. They decided to forget about the awkwardness they had encountered during the day.
After being dropped off by Song Xiaodong, Miao Xuanxuan immediately ran into Miao Qingqingâs room.
Seeing Miao Xuanxuanâs bright smile, Miao Qingqing couldnât help but feel a bit envious. Despite being twins, her sister was always happy while she herself was swamped with busyness every single day.
"You look so happy, did something good happen?" Miao Qingqing, who was resting at home these past few days, had her laptop on her lap, remotely working on some company affairs.
Miao Xuanxuan hopped onto the bed and sat cross-legged opposite Miao Qingqing, grinning as she said, "Today I spent the whole day with Dongzi."
"Dongzi?"
Miao Xuanxuan continued to grin, "Yes, Song Xiaodong, the jerk you always talk about."
Miao Qingqing frowned, "Youâre that close to him now?"
"Yeah, weâre good friends now."
Miao Qingqingâs frown deepened as she said, "Why are you getting so close to him? Heâs not a good person. I understood when you messed around with him before, but why continue now?"
Rolling her eyes, Miao Xuanxuan responded, "Come on, sis, why are you like this, blaming me for what you did?"
"Xuanxuan!" Miao Qingqing put her laptop down and reiterated, "For the last time, it really wasnât me."
Miao Xuanxuan fired back immediately, "And Iâll say it again, it definitely wasnât me either, and Iâm telling you, I think Dongzi is pretty awesome. If you donât admit it, maybe one day Iâll make him my boyfriend, and then youâll regret it."
Miao Qingqing quickly retorted, "If I say it wasnât me, it definitely wasnât me. But wait... you were quite disgusted with that guy before, how come youâve changed your opinion of him now?"
"Let me tell you..." Miao Xuanxuan eagerly recounted what had happened that day at the machinery factory, "It was so amazing, there were more than twenty people, and he took them all down by himself. None of our bodyguards could compare to him."
Miao Qingqing snorted with disdain, "So what if heâs good at fighting? Fighting is not a real talent."
Blinking, Miao Xuanxuan offered, "Okay, so fightingâs not a talent, but what about medical skills?"
"That..." Miao Qingqing unconsciously looked at her own leg. There were several small wounds on her leg, some of which still had scabs, but the most serious injury was now as smooth as before, with only a few barely noticeable tiny needle marks showing where the wound had been.
"Alright, I admit heâs got skill in treating injuries. My leg didnât scar, and thatâs thanks to him." Although Miao Qingqing wasnât fond of Song Xiaodong, she called a spade a spade and acknowledged his medical skill.
"Curing a leg injury is no big deal. Did you know Xiaoqiangâs spleen was ruptured today, and the doctors said he needed surgery to remove it. Dongzi just stuck a few needles in him, and his spleen was saved. The doctors still canât believe it."
"Thatâs possible?" Miao Qingqingâs eyes widened in amazement.
"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes. Thatâs why I say Dongzi is a good guy. Not only is he skilled, but heâs also righteous. Definitely a great friend worth having."
Miao Qingqing, upon hearing Miao Xuanxuan speaking like this, admitted that Song Xiaodong indeed wasnât too bad, but as soon as she recalled the day when the scoundrel had touched her leg, she snorted and said, "Even if he has some abilities now, itâs no good if his character is bad."
"Ah-ha, so how exactly is his character bad? What exactly did he do to you?" Miao Xuanxuan squinted her eyes, staring at Miao Qingqing.
"He actually took advantage when he was treating my leg..." Miao Qingqing blurted out, ready to speak, but upon seeing the blazing gossip fire in her sisterâs eyes, she couldnât help but speak somewhat speechlessly, "Iâm telling you this, not for you to treat it as gossip."
Miao Xuanxuan, caught by her sister, giggled, not embarrassed in the least, and said, "But you have to say something, so that I can be wary in the future."
Miao Qingqing huffed and said, "That guy, while treating me, even touched... my leg."
"He was supposed to put needles in your leg, touching it doesnât seem like a big deal, does it?" Miao Xuanxuan tilted her head, somewhat skeptical.
"Nonsense, thereâs a difference between touching my leg properly and feeling my leg, canât I tell the difference? That bastard clearly finished putting in the needles, and still touched me with his hand, tell me if he isnât a scumbag and a hoodlum."
"Oh... that really is pretty hoodlum-like." Miao Xuanxuan nodded, then said with a sly smile on her face, "Anyway, since you and him... heh heh, a touch on the leg doesnât matter much, right?"
Miao Qingqing glared at her and said, "Miao Xuanxuan, will you ever let it rest? Iâve said it wasnât me, if it wasnât you, then it must be someone else, donât keep trying to pin it on me."
Miao Xuanxuan grinned and said, "If itâs not, then itâs not, whatâs the rush?"
Miao Qingqing said indignantly, "Humph, anyway, Iâm warning you, itâs better to keep your distance from this guy, heâs someone whoâs very irresponsible with feelings, and if you fall for his tricks, donât come crying to me."
"Got it, I can actually understand him, being alone with a beauty like you, he didnât directly push you down, which is already quite something; just touching your leg, I feel his self-control is pretty good."
Miao Qingqingâs face darkened, but in her heart, she actually somewhat agreed with Miao Xuanxuanâs words. After all, she was aware of her own allure to men. But every time she thought of Song Xiaodongâs mischievous smile, she felt incredibly annoyed, very annoyed.
Song Xiaodong arrived home quite late again, Song Xiaoru was still waiting for him to have dinner, which made Song Xiaodong feel very apologetic. While eating, he said, "Sis, if I come back late in the future, Iâll give you a call in advance, so you donât have to wait for me."
Song Xiaoru said with a smile, "Itâs okay, youâve just returned, and you surely want to meet many people. Go on with your business, I canât eat much alone anyway, I eat more when Iâm with you."
Song Xiaodong felt an indescribable warmth inside and said, "Then Iâll try to come back to have dinner with you in the evenings."
"Youâre a grown man, coming back late is normal, you donât have to worry about me; I canât be holding you back."
With such a caring sister at home, Song Xiaodong felt an unspeakable happiness in his heart.
"By the way, do you have plans tomorrow evening?" Song Xiaoru spoke after taking a few bites, lifting her head to ask Song Xiaodong.
Song Xiaodong, with his mouth full of food, chewed while asking indistinctly, "No, why?"
Song Xiaoru hesitated a moment and then said, "Third Uncle is hosting a dinner and asked us to go. I thought since you are back, should we... go together?"
"Third Uncle..." Song Xiaodong suddenly frowned, his facial expression extremely displeased.
