Chapter 317 - 318 Assassination of Song Xiaodong
In the following days, the atmosphere at home remained very pleasant, with Song Xiaodong and Miao Xuanxuan spending most of their time playing video games together, Miao Xuanxuan’s shouts and laughter filled the house, making Miao Qingqing feel somewhat guilty.
But Song Xiaoru didn’t make a big deal out of it; with the cheerful Miao Xuanxuan at home, she felt more lively and far from annoyed, in fact, she actually grew quite fond of having her around.
At night, Song Xiaodong still massaged Miao Qingqing, but to avoid repeating past mistakes, Miao Qingqing simply had Song Xiaodong massage her in the living room, in the presence of Song Xiaoru and Miao Xuanxuan. This way, even if Song Xiaodong had the audacity, he wouldn’t dare take advantage of her.
However, having Song Xiaodong directly place his hands on her belly still made Miao Qingqing somewhat shy, but then she thought that there was no one else around—a future husband, her own younger sister, and Song Xiaodong’s own older sister—it was something she could face calmly.
Over these days, Miao Xuanxuan had become increasingly comfortable and seemed to have completely stepped out of the shadow of her breakup. Having adjusted to being the cheerful sister-in-law, she joked around with Song Xiaodong and Miao Qingqing daily. Although she still clung to Song Xiaodong, she gradually had her own life. That evening, she was out dining with a few girlfriends.
Miao Qingqing also had an event to attend that night, leaving the Song siblings alone at home for a rare occasion.
"Dongzi, let’s go to the old house later, I need to pick up something."
Song Xiaodong naturally had no objections. They drove there but didn’t park by the roadside outside because the road was in poor condition and cluttered with randomly placed items from the houses, which could easily scratch the car—Song Xiaoru wouldn’t dare let such a nice car get scratched.
As they made their way deeper inside, they occasionally saw some old neighbors chatting at their doorways, all of whom Song Xiaoru greeted cheerfully.
"Xiaoru, are you moving? Did you buy a bigger house?"
