Chapter 486: Chapter 487: Even Lovers Will Do
It wasnāt long before Brother Qing walked in and gave Chen Zixu a look, suggesting he wanted to speak with Chen Zixu in private.
However, Chen Zixu stared back with wide eyes and said, "How did it go?"
His cousin immediately realized that Chen Zixu was insisting he speak frankly, which implied that Chen Zixuās relationship with Brother Song had grown exceptionally close.
"Brother Song, Brother Xu, I gave that punk Zhao Lin another beating, and then he agreedāheāll cough up a million to soothe the nerves of Brother Songās little girlfriend."
Lin Suāerās friendsā eyes went wide, stunned. There had been a conflict, and Song Xiaodong had beaten the guy up, and now they actually had to compensate Song Xiaodong with a million yuanāthis was just outrageous.
To their surprise, Chen Zixu glared and exclaimed, "Damn it, just one million? Does he think heās fobbing off a beggar?"
Brother Qing jumped at that, about to speak, when Song Xiaodong waved his hand and said, "Alright, thatās enough. People like him arenāt worth my time."
It was then that Chen Zixu said, "Hmph, that little punk got off easy. If it werenāt for Brother Song being so magnanimous, Iād have killed him myself."
Brother Qing nodded repeatedly, then added, "This incident happened in my hotel, which means Iāve offended Brother Song. Here are ten cards, each with ten thousand yuan in it. I know itās not a lot of money, and Brother Song wonāt even blink an eye at it, but you could give them to friends or something. Consider it a little token of my apology, and I hope Brother Song will kindly accept."
Song Xiaodong nodded and responded, "Hmm, that should suffice. Zi Xu, you guys can leave now. Weāve not finished eating."
Chen Zixu hastily said, "Itās all that bastardās fault, ruining Brother Songās appetite."
Brother Qing immediately offered, "Iāll have a new table prepared right away."
After Chen Zixu and Brother Qing had left, the waitstaff immediately came in to clear the table and cleaned up the room. Then, new dishes were served as quickly as if water was flowing; the hotelās entire kitchen must have been preparing them, otherwise they would not have been served so promptly.
Song Xiaoru picked up the cards left by Brother Qing and said, "Suāer, take these cards and divide them up among your friends."
Lin Suāer quickly agreed, taking the cards and giving two to each of her friends.
Yao Juan, holding the cards, stammered, "These... these cards are for us? And two each?"
The other friends also blushed, having heard each card contained ten thousand yuan, and two cards meant twenty thousand yuan. Even though they couldnāt withdraw cash, they could still spend it there, which was nearly as good as money. They couldnāt help but be overjoyed, as these gifts were given to them so casually.
Song Xiaoru smiled faintly and said, "Suāer is our friend, and since you are her colleagues, I hope youāll look after Suāer in the future."
The friends eagerly agreed, now aware of how close Lin Suāer was to Doctor Song. Given that Doctor Song was clearly influential, word would get around the hospital, and no one would dare to bully Lin Suāer. They were more than happy to ingratiate themselves.
After expressing their utmost gratitude, Lin Suāerās friends stashed the cards away. In the future, they could come to this place, swipe the card to eat without paying a dime, and the prestige of showing off the card was probably the most delightful part.
More than an hour later, everyone finished their meal and left the hotel together. Brother Qing personally escorted them to the entrance, leaving Lin Suāerās friends feeling somewhat elated. What was meant to be just a simple dinnerāand one where Suāer almost faced bullyingāhad turned into an almost dreamlike sequence of events.
"Suāer, would you like to stay at our place tonight?" Song Xiaoru asked Lin Suāer.
Lin Suāer couldnāt help but feel a little nervous and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Sister Xiaoru, but thereās no need, Iāll come over to your place in a few days."
"Alright, just be careful when you go out," Song Xiaoru nodded.
Lin Suāer and several girlfriends crammed into a taxi, all insisting on staying over at Lin Suāerās house. They were too excited today and had to properly digest and celebrate; going straight home would be no fun at all.
Lin Suāer agreed to it.
Upon arriving at Lin Suāerās house, the girls quickly washed up and then all squeezed onto Lin Suāerās bed.
Then they chattered nonstop about what had happened that day, especially the other three who hadnāt seen what occurred in the bathroom. Yao Juan took the opportunity to animatedly retell the story.
"Eh, whatās this?" One girl accidentally found something under the pillow, and then suddenly her eyes widened as she exclaimed, "Condoms, Suāer, you actually have condoms at home, and there are several missing from the box!"
Lin Suāerās face instantly flushed red, she stammered, trying to explain, but there was really nothing much to explain about such an object, it clearly meant that she had used these things.
"Suāer, youāve actually been sneaking around with a boyfriend? Out with it, who is he?"
"Yeah, come on, spill it. You got a boyfriend and didnāt even tell us, isnāt that a bit mean of you?"
Lin Suāer bit her lip and said, "Okay, but my boyfriend isnāt here, he works out of town and can probably come back once a month."
Seeing Lin Suāer admit to it, the group wasnāt so curious anymore. At their age, most of them had had boyfriends, and having boyfriends usually meant they had already been to bed, so they didnāt think using condoms was something to be embarrassed about.
However, they were still worried about Lin Suāerās long-distance relationship, since it was easy for the feelings to fade away, and in the end, it could be difficult to sustain.
"Ah, if only my boyfriend was Doctor Song." A girl suddenly shifted the topic to Song Xiaodong.
"You can stop dreaming. Doctor Songās girlfriend is so beautiful, and sheās a big boss worth over a billion."
"Then Iāll just be Doctor Songās mistress."
"As if Doctor Song would look your way. Among us, if anyone is qualified to be Doctor Songās mistress, itād be Lin Suāer."
Lin Suāer asked cautiously and subconsciously, "So excited about the idea of being Doctor Songās mistress, huh?"
"Why wouldnāt we be? Doctor Song is so amazing, skilled in medicine, and has a wide network. Havenāt you seen how much Brother Xu and Brother Qing fawn over him? Even being Doctor Songās mistress would mean a life of glory. Itās just a pity that he would never take a second look at me."
"Indeed, forget being a mistress, Iād be happy even for a one-night stand. Just the thought of Doctor Song doing it on top of me, ah, I canāt take it."
The girlfriends immediately burst into giggles and playful teasing, but at that moment Lin Suāer squinted her eyes, feeling an indescribable sense of happiness. Being Doctor Songās mistress was something she feared others finding out about one day, worried they would look at her differently. Now, it seemed that at the very least, this was something her girlfriends envied. This made her heart feel a lot lighter.
