Chapter 1210: Chapter 1211: Su Yuya’s Fall and Injury
When Song Xiaodong last met with Lu Lang, he already understood the most important intentions from above.
Just like Shen Yue’s father, Mayor Shen, although Song Xiaodong helped him rise, he has always acted like a normal mayor, a truly good official who won’t do anything for the Su Family.
Another point is the competition between commercial enterprises. The companies controlled by these big families are all top-level companies. Normal competition is fine, but if it’s abnormal competition, it will greatly harm the economic environment of the entire country, so the higher-ups absolutely do not allow it to happen.
The only very direct way for these families to fight now is instead through the most primitive method, which is to see the strength of each family’s family guard.
Such a struggle for profits is instead the method that will not harm the country’s core and will not cause social unrest. In fact, ordinary people won’t even know that there is such a way.
Although the Su Family’s current strength is not weak, and the strength of Su Zhentian and their family guards has greatly improved, there are still only a few top-level experts. There’s only Sun Yiyi, and Sun Yiyi belongs to the Sun family, and she still can’t always be stationed in the Su Family.
If they could elevate He Lingzhi’s strength to a level similar to their own, it would definitely be a great advantage for the Su Family.
Lu Lang didn’t state these words outright, but Song Xiaodong could already sense the intentions from above, just like this alliance marriage, why they didn’t choose another big family in Beijing, and instead chose the He family, specifically pairing He Lingzhi with Song Xiaodong.
The big reason is probably because of He Lingzhi’s strength being evident; otherwise, marrying into any other family, even if they had strong family guards, it wouldn’t be as convenient as He Lingzhi directly joining the Su Family and truly becoming part of it.
Today there were many issues concerning the women, and they weren’t all at home; only Song Xiaodong and Su Yuya were there to command the overall situation.
After lunch, Su Yuya went upstairs for a nap because it was her main workplace, so she had a room reserved in the main villa, which was quite convenient.
During this noon break, Song Xiaodong focused on practicing martial arts. Even though he had immense luck, he understood that without personal effort, all of it would be in vain.
“Ah!” a startled cry followed by the sound of something heavy rolling down the stairs was heard.
Song Xiaodong flew to the stairs and saw Su Yuya rolling down them.
Song Xiaodong directly rushed forward, scooping her up into his arms.
Su Yuya instinctively held onto Song Xiaodong.
“Auntie, are you okay?” Song Xiaodong asked urgently.
“It hurts!” Su Yuya grimaced, biting her lower lip, clearly in pain.
“Tell me where it hurts, so I can check it out,” Song Xiaodong, being a doctor, remained very calm.
“I don’t know, it feels like everywhere hurts,” Su Yuya said with a pained expression.
This was a normal reaction; since Su Yuya fell down the stairs, her muscles might have collided in several places, and the main concern was whether her bones were injured.
Su Yuya calmed down and said awkwardly, “Family Head… you should put me down. Holding me like this, what if Qingqing and the others see?”
Song Xiaodong held onto Su Yuya without letting go, saying, “We don’t know about your bones yet, so how can I let you down? Besides, you’re our aunt. What is there to be afraid of? Let me check you out.”
Seeing that Song Xiaodong was about to carry her into the living room, Su Yuya quickly said, “Let’s… go to the room. The living room is still somewhat inconvenient.”
“Makes sense,” Song Xiaodong agreed and carried Su Yuya into her room on the second floor.
Carefully placing Su Yuya on the bed, Song Xiaodong sat at her leg’s side and, gently removing her shoes, said, “The most common injuries from falls are the wrists and ankles. I saw you move your hand earlier, and it seemed fine, so let’s check your ankle first.”
“Hmm, the ankle isn’t swollen. Does moving it hurt?” he asked, gently moving her foot.
Su Yuya gently shook her head, “It’s okay, it doesn’t hurt.”
Song Xiaodong sighed in relief, “It seems there’s no major issue. Do you still feel uncomfortable anywhere else?”
“Now…” Su Yuya pondered a bit, “I feel pain in my thigh and buttocks, probably from the impact.”
Song Xiaodong said, “Let me massage them for you. This kind of fall injury isn’t serious, but if not treated, it might hurt for several days.”
Su Yuya looked at Song Xiaodong and, feeling slightly awkward, said, “Is it okay for you to massage my thigh and buttocks?”
Song Xiaodong paused, then said, “You’re Aunt Qingqing, which makes you my aunt too. Besides, don’t forget I’m a doctor, and you’re a patient. Do you think there’s anything inappropriate about that?”
Su Yuya chuckled lightly, “That’s true, but it still feels strange. If Qingqing and the others see it, would they think there’s something between us? Oops, what am I saying! I’m old enough to be an aunt; even if they see it, they wouldn’t misunderstand. Go ahead.”
Song Xiaodong also chuckled, “Who says that? Auntie, you’ve always looked young, and at your age, it’s the prime of life for a woman—most enchanting.”
“Oh, stop with the flattery,” Su Yuya rolled her eyes at him playfully, then slowly turned to her side, “If you’re going to massage, do it quickly. It really hurts.”
Song Xiaodong helped her turn over onto her stomach, and seeing the smooth curves, he suddenly felt an inexplicable impulse.
This startled him, and he quickly suppressed any improper thoughts. Such ideas must not be entertained.
