Chapter 1345 - 1333: Su Yuya Falls Ill Again
After the engagement ceremony, even though they're not officially married, He Lingzhi is considered Song Xiaodong's wife, so now she can rightfully return to the Su Family with him.
He Lingzhi was more than eager to go back with Song Xiaodong. Having tasted the sweetness of love for the first time, she was utterly enchanted. Moreover, the benefits of Dual Cultivation made her wish to be glued to Song Xiaodong twenty-four hours a day.
No, no! That's staying entwined in bed, maintaining the state of Dual Cultivation at all times.
After staying in Beijing for another two days, Song Xiaodong returned to Minghe, and He Lingzhi officially moved into the Su Family.
Although she was unwilling, she was already very aware of Song Xiaodong's family situation and knew it was impossible to monopolize him entirely.
Then, under Song Xiaoru's arrangement, she agreed to be like everyone else. However, when it wasn't her turn, she requested to live in a separate villa for convenient practice.
Although it seemed a bit unique, this was He Lingzhi's personality. Besides, she agreed to be like everyone else in other aspects, which was a substantial concession, showing her sensibility. Thus, no one had any reason to criticize her.
The news of the engagement naturally spread throughout Minghe and Ningjian Province, and the Su Family's status in Ningjian was once again significantly elevated. Even those families who were friendly on the surface but competitive behind the scenes didn't dare to harbor such thoughts anymore, sincerely acknowledging the Su Family and paying their respects.
The members of the Su Family gained even more prestige. Not to mention the second generation, even the third generation disciples were now treated like stars surrounded by adoring fans, especially Su Xiaoliu, who, due to Song Xiaodong's heavy reliance on him, became a leader among the young generation of the Su Family.
After receiving another group of guests, Song Xiaodong sat in the chair, said wearily, "It's really exhausting. Auntie, do we have more people to meet today?"
Su Yuya didn't even look at the record book and said directly, "Just one last group. Hang in there; these are the dividends from this union. We must accept their goodwill."
Song Xiaodong stretched his arms and said, "Thankfully, it's just one more group. Let's deal with it quickly; I just want to crash into bed and sleep soundly."
This kind of guest reception is something Song Xiaodong truly dislikes. Having to fake interactions exhausts him even more than fighting fiercely with someone.
Su Yuya rolled her eyes at Song Xiaodong and said, "Family Head, you think this is tiring? With all the work I've been doing, does that mean I should be dead tired?"
Song Xiaodong immediately said, "Auntie, you've truly worked hard these days, definitely the greatest contributor. By the way, Auntie, how have you been feeling the past couple of days? Any discomfort?"
Su Yuya was so busy these days that she hadn't considered it. But when Song Xiaodong brought it up, she suddenly remembered what Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan told her two days ago, causing her to blush deeply and avoid meeting Song Xiaodong's eyes, murmuring, "I'm fine. I'm quite good."
Song Xiaodong didn't know that Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan had already spoken to Su Yuya, so he casually said, "You mustn't overwork, be sure to rest. If you feel any discomfort, you must tell me immediately."
Su Yuya felt even more awkward and said, "I will, thank you for your concern, Family Head."
She sneaked a glance at Song Xiaodong and found his words were very natural, which left Su Yuya unsure of her feelings.
At that moment, the last group of people arrived, and Song Xiaodong had no choice but to muster his energy for the reception.
After dinner, Song Xiaodong played with his son, the women of the family also gathered around the little guy. Being the first child of the family, everyone found him especially delightful.
Looking at the harmonious scene at home, Song Xiaodong felt an indescribable satisfaction. For a man, reaching this point in life seemed like having no more desires.
However, he was well aware that there were still too many things he had to face. Without resolving those issues, he had no right to enjoy such a life.
"Auntie, what's wrong?" Miao Xuanxuan suddenly exclaimed softly.
Song Xiaodong turned to see Su Yuya's face flushed, her whole body trembling, and her teeth biting her lips so hard that she'd drawn blood.
"Not good!" Song Xiaodong exclaimed and rushed to hold Su Yuya, who was already semi-conscious by then.
"Husband, do whatever you must to save Auntie's life!" Miao Qingqing immediately caught up and said.
Song Xiaodong froze for a moment, then understood what Miao Qingqing meant. Although somewhat awkward, he said, "I got it." Then he carried Su Yuya into a room.
Placing Su Yuya on the bed, Song Xiaodong immediately stripped her clothes and began to wield the silver needles, controlling the True Qi within Su Yuya.
At the touch, Song Xiaodong couldn't help being secretly amazed; the True Qi in Su Yuya's body was more rampant, making it more challenging to handle than last time.
This increasing explosive force seemed more uncontrollable with each instance. If it happens again, he might not have the ability to control it at all.
But now, the urgent matter was to suppress Su Yuya's True Qi immediately. Song Xiaodong focused entirely on the task at hand.
