Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Have Some Fun with a Few Girls
Song Xiaodong arrived at the guild hall, and today was his first day teaching. However, there were only six students, all of whom were five or six-year-old children.
Teaching these kids was just like playing around, and he feared that the parents didnât really expect their children to learn anything significant, just to casually enroll them in some interest class.
An hour and a half went by quickly, and the class was over. Song Xiaodong had nothing else to do for the day, so he went to find Song Xiaoru, and together they took advantage of the weekend to pick out some essential items for their home.
In the afternoon, a call came from the furniture store, the furniture was ready, and they needed someone at home for the delivery. Song Xiaodong and Song Xiaoru hurried back to their new house.
Song Xiaodong immediately called Wang Xiaoqiang and Li Gang, asking them to come over quickly. Two people were necessary for the job, or he had no idea when he and Song Xiaoru would have finished.
Twenty minutes later, Wang Xiaoqiang and Li Gang both arrived downstairs, where Song Xiaodong was already waiting to receive them.
"Dongzi, did you buy a house here?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked curiously.
Song Xiaodong laughed and said, "Yeah, why else would I have you guys come over? Today the furniture is arriving. Hurry up and help me carry it upstairs."
Li Gang stared and said, "Iâm dizzy, Dongzi, you bought a house so quickly."
Wang Xiaoqiang immediately said, "You think making money is as hard for Dong as it is for us? He easily rakes in a million, so buying a house is no issue, right? Come on, letâs hurry up and take a look."
The two guys followed Song Xiaodong into the house and couldnât help but gawk at the placeâit was a 140-square-meter split-level they hadnât even dreamed of.
Song Xiaoru was quite familiar with them too, so there was no need for courtesies. She greeted them with a smile.
Before long, the furniture arrived; the installation workers began to bustle about, and Song Xiaodong and company assisted them. It was past six before all the furniture was installed.
All of them threw themselves onto the spacious genuine leather sofa in the living room, and Li Gang, caressing the leather, said enviously, "Dongzi, this is too luxurious, a real leather sofa. Itâs so comfortable."
Song Xiaodong laughed and said, "Just wait until you guys get married, and Iâll gift you one too. Itâs no big deal."
"Hehe, I knew Dongzi was generous."
"By the way, shouldnât we celebrate such a big happy event?"
Song Xiaodong agreed heartily, "Definitely!"
Li Gang said with a sleazy grin, "Then we have to invite a few more people, and it would be best to invite some more girls too."
Today, Song Xiaodong was also in a good mood and replied, "Then letâs invite them. Itâs no big deal, Iâll call right now."
Everyone decided to eat at home and just ordered various dishes online, while Song Xiaodong called Miao Xuanxuan and Lin Suâer, inviting them over to join the celebration.
Miao Xuanxuan and Lin Suâer readily agreed.
Just as he hung up, Xiao Yingying called Song Xiaodong. After he answered, Xiao Yingying said, "Brother Dongzi, Iâm so bored. Could you come and hang out with me for a bit?"
Following Song Xiaodongâs two treatments, Xiao Yingyingâs health had improved nicely, and she often liked to call Song Xiaodong for a chat.
"Then come over to my place, I just bought a house, a bunch of friends are coming to celebrate."
"Sure, sure!" Xiao Yingying immediately agreed with excitement.
After Song Xiaoru finished the phone call, she pulled Song Xiaodong aside and said, "Why did you invite all these girls? Arenât you afraid of creating a scene if they clash?"
Song Xiaodong chuckled and replied, "Iâm not dating any of them. Itâs nothing serious, just friends."
Song Xiaoru gave him a look and said, "You may consider them just friends, but who knows what they think."
Song Xiaodong shrugged and said, "If they start fighting over nothing, then I donât need that kind of friend anyway. I canât handle women with a small heart. My girlfriend doesnât have to be as gentle and open-minded as you, but she should at least be somewhat similar, right?"
"You..." Song Xiaoru hit Song Xiaodong playfully, but deep down she was quite pleased.
Before long, Lin Suâer arrived first, followed by Miao Xuanxuan, who surprisingly didnât come alone. She had brought Li Sijie with her.
"President Li, what brings you here?" Song Xiaodong was quite surprised to see Li Sijie.
Li Sijie smiled and said, "Youâve helped me out so much, how could I not come and see your new house? I should contribute too."
Song Xiaodong laughed and said, "Ha, thereâs nothing left for you to do, everythingâs pretty much done."
Hearing that this was Song Xiaodongâs boss at work, Song Xiaoru couldnât help feeling a bit restrained. She stepped forward and said, "President Li, your visit is such a surprise. I didnât prepare well. Why donât we go out to eat?"
Knowing that she was Song Xiaodongâs sister, Li Sijie felt somewhat embarrassed and hurriedly said, "Please donât say that, sister. Although Xiaodong works at my fitness center, if it werenât for his help, it would be closed by now. Besides, heâs now a shareholder of the center, so I feel ashamed with you being so polite to me."
Song Xiaoru also knew about the partnership, and seeing Li Sijieâs friendly attitude, she relaxed and said, "Alright, I wonât be ceremonial then. But calling me âsisterâ might be a stretch, Iâm only a year older than Xiaodong."
"Ah, then Iâm older than you, but as Xiaodongâs friend, itâs appropriate for me to call you âsisterâ through him."
Li Sijie was very adamant about this title. She had another kind of relationship with Song Xiaodong, and even if there was no possibility between her and Song Xiaodong, she had to acknowledge this relationship in her heart. Therefore, calling Song Xiaodongâs sister âsisterâ was natural for her, and being called âsisterâ by Song Xiaoru would have made her very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Song Xiaoru wasnât too insistent either, so in the end, she accepted it.
It wasnât long before Xiao Yingying arrived, and Song Xiaodong went downstairs to greet her. Xiao Yingying immediately hugged his arm and sweetly said, "Brother Dongzi, Iâve missed you."
Song Xiaodong smiled and said, "Itâs only been a few days since we last saw each other, and you miss me already?"
Xiao Yingyingâs smile became even brighter, and she said, "Even a moment apart makes me miss you, let alone a few days." She was usually expressionless, but when she was with Song Xiaodong, she didnât have to be cautious about this.
"Alright, letâs go inside. There are a lot of people today."
"A lot of people? Then itâs going to be even livelier."
As they entered the house, everyone immediately turned their gaze towards them. Seeing Xiao Yingying, an angelic beauty, clinging to Song Xiaodongâs arm like a little bird, everyone had the same thought: Could this girl be Song Xiaodongâs girlfriend?
