Chapter 182: Chapter 182: This is Your Boyfriend, Right?

Song Xiaoru wore a helpless wry smile. She really didn’t want to attract too much attention, but now it seemed impossible not to, with a five or six million luxury car sitting there. Who could look at her the same way as before?

"Xiaoru, this car... Is it... yours?" a female colleague stuttered.

Glancing at Song Xiaodong, who was snickering over there, Song Xiaoru could only say helplessly, "It’s my brother’s."

"Wow, your brother drives a Ferrari!" All the colleagues went crazy instantly. Those who had known Song Xiaoru for some time knew how frugal she was and that her family wasn’t well-off. Suddenly having a brother who drove a Ferrari was just too big a contrast, and they really couldn’t accept this fact.

Song Xiaoru hurriedly said, "Alright, alright, let’s all get in the car. Aren’t we supposed to visit my place today?" She was somewhat overwhelmed by everyone’s excited reactions and quickly got into Wu Songtao’s Mercedes.

At this moment, Wu Songtao was a bit dumbfounded. Originally, he had thought that with the power he held, Song Xiaoru would have to comply, but now seeing that someone in her family owned a luxury car worth five or six million, his little bit of power clearly couldn’t affect her at all. Moreover, considering how wealthy they seemed, he didn’t dare to provoke them. He even felt a bit scared thinking, what if Song Xiaoru retaliated against him for his attitude today? Would he end up in a terrible situation?

Zhang Na felt especially prestigious today, riding in such a convertible Ferrari. The feeling was indescribably exhilarating.

However, after driving for a while, Zhang Na began to doubt and said, "Hey, this isn’t your boss’s car, is it?"

Song Xiaodong chuckled lightly and said, "What do you think?"

Zhang Na stared at Song Xiaodong and said, "It must be your boss’s. I’m quite close with your sister, and I know her situation well. There’s no way she could afford this much money."

With a faint smile on his face, Song Xiaodong said, "If that’s what you think, I can’t help it."

Seeing Song Xiaodong’s confident expression, Zhang Na blinked, suddenly slapped her thigh, and said, "I’ve got it now. You’re definitely not Xiaoru’s brother. We’ve all been tricked by Xiaoru. You’re clearly Xiaoru’s boyfriend, haha, I guessed right this time, didn’t I?"

Song Xiaodong’s face darkened and he said, "Your imagination really is abundant."

"What do you mean by imagination? You say you’re her brother, but no matter how I look at you, you don’t resemble your sister at all."

Song Xiaodong gave Zhang Na a sideways look and said, "Nonsense, we are siblings, not sisters. Isn’t it normal not to look alike?"

Zhang Na said with a giggly voice, "Stop pretending. Xiaoru’s brother is a soldier, everyone knows that. Can a soldier afford a Ferrari? You must be kidding. If that were the case, everyone would join the military. Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone. If Xiaoru wants to keep it a secret, I’ll keep it for her."

Song Xiaodong was speechless and said, "Alright then, if you want to think that way, go ahead." If all of Song Xiaoru’s colleagues thought this way, it didn’t seem like a bad thing; it might even prevent those idle people from bothering Song Xiaoru. In his heart, the male colleagues in Song Xiaoru’s office didn’t deserve a chance to pursue his sister at all.

Zhang Na was even more triumphant as she said, "Haha, I knew I was right! Xiaoru, that sly one, got herself a tall, rich, and handsome man and didn’t even make a peep about it. Really, that’s not very nice of her."

Song Xiaodong shook his head and kept driving. Before long, they reached the residence complex. He drove straight to the underground parking spot, while the others had to park at the entrance of the complex and then followed Song Xiaoru as she led them all the way on foot.

Song Xiaodong first brought Zhang Na to his house, and seeing the spacious living room and floor-to-ceiling windows, Zhang Na immediately screamed excitedly.

"Wow, what a rich person indeed, such a large living room, all high-end furniture. I’m dizzy, it even has multiple floors, so enviable." Zhang Na wasn’t shy at all, as soon as she arrived, she started looking around and repeatedly exclaimed.

Song Xiaodong smiled and didn’t stop her. Before long, the other colleagues also entered, led by Song Xiaoru, and almost everyone started exclaiming upon seeing the home.

At that moment, Wu Songtao came over to Song Xiaodong’s side, coughed lightly, and said in a flattering tone, "Mr. Song, may I ask what you do for a living?"

Song Xiaodong answered, "I don’t do much; I just hang out all day."

Wu Songtao’s mouth twitched, sure enough he was a rich second generation. Only a wealthy heir could afford to lounge around and still afford a Ferrari. However, Song Xiaoru was more vexing; being so rich, why would she work at such a small company? Thank goodness he found out Song Xiaoru’s background today. Had it been two days later, who knows how he might have offended her.

At this thought, Wu Songtao couldn’t help but wipe his forehead, unaware of when he had started sweating.

"Xiaodong, quickly get some drinks for everyone." With so many guests in the house, and all of them colleagues, Song Xiaoru could only instruct Song Xiaodong.

"Sure thing," Song Xiaodong agreed, and quickly went to get the drinks.

This was just a normal action but, in Wu Songtao’s eyes, it clearly showed that Song Xiaoru held a high status in the house; her brother was quite obedient to her, which made him even more frightened.

Zhang Na suspected that Song Xiaodong wasn’t Song Xiaoru’s brother, and others also started thinking the same. This idea quickly spread, and some even directly asked Song Xiaoru.

"Xiaoru, he’s not really your brother, right?"

Song Xiaoru’s heart skipped a beat, because Song Xiaodong indeed wasn’t her biological brother. How did these people figure it out? Her expression also suddenly turned rather unpleasant.

"Haha, we guessed right, didn’t we? He is definitely your boyfriend; you still tried to trick us, that’s really mean."

"Exactly, you got a tall, rich, and handsome boyfriend, Xiaoru, and you still kept it secret. That’s not nice."

Hearing everyone saying this, Song Xiaoru suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and snapped, "What boyfriend? He is my brother."

"You’re still trying to fool us; your brother is in the military, how could he afford such a big house and such a nice car? That’s just a joke."

Song Xiaoru was about to explain when Song Xiaodong came over and wrapped his arms around Song Xiaoru’s waist, smiling and saying, "You all figured it out, but I still prefer calling her ’sister’; it feels closer."

Song Xiaoru turned to look at Song Xiaodong, saw him winking at her, and understood his intentions. Since they couldn’t clear the misunderstanding, why bother? She rolled her eyes at Song Xiaodong and said, "You!" then decided not to explain the matter any further.
