167: Chapter 167: Being a Bit Dramatic
“You’re pretending to be my…” Miao Qingqing paused, then her voice suddenly lowered and she quickly spat out three words, “boyfriend.”
“What?
What did you say?
I didn’t catch that clearly.” Song Xiaodong heard everything crystal clear, but teasing this Miao Qingqing was sothing he was always interested in.
“Boy…friend!” Miao Qingqing ground her teeth, this ti enunciating each word sharply, clearly conveying a resentful tone.
It was all because of this Song Xiaodong that she was left unable to explain herself, making her father suspect her of impropriety.
When Miao Xuanxuan heard Miao Qingqing say those three words, he was thrilled beyond asure.
Seeing Miao Qingqing finally admitting it, considering her usual stubborn deanor, he felt an indescribable joy at this mont.
“Oh…
is that so?
Well, then I won’t go.” Unexpectedly, Song Xiaodong blurted out such a sentence at this mont.
Miao Xuanxuan’s eyes widened instantly, and he pinched Song Xiaodong, his lips moving without making a sound; it was clearly a warning.
“What?
You won’t agree?” Miao Qingqing was also caught off guard by Song Xiaodong’s words.
Song Xiaodong said naturally, “Yeah, why should I agree?
If I go as your boyfriend, how is that a loss for ?”
“You…” Miao Qingqing was taken aback again, then said with annoyance, “How are you at a loss?”
Song Xiaodong responded, “You, Miao Qingqing, are a wealthy heiress and a popular figure in the business world.
Who knows how many talented young n are eyeing you.
If I appear as your boyfriend, wouldn’t I beco your human shield?
I would offend countless people in an instant, and who knows how many powerful and wealthy individuals will co looking for trouble with .
Do I look like I have nothing better to do than get involved in such a boring affair?”
“Ah…” Miao Qingqing was at a loss for words.
Song Xiaodong’s argunt left her speechless.
She had only thought about her appearance and status, and assud that for Song Xiaodong to pretend to be her boyfriend would be his good fortune, his glory.
She expected Song Xiaodong to feel suprely honored, never considering the trouble it might bring him.
“You better find soone else for such a great opportunity.
I want to live my peaceful little life and don’t want to wade into your family’s muddy waters.”
Having said that, Song Xiaodong very decisively hung up the phone.
Miao Xuanxuan’s eyes widened as he stared fixedly at Song Xiaodong, who rolled his eyes and asked, “Hey, what’s with that look you’re giving ?”
“You…
my sister asked you to be her boyfriend, and you actually refused?” Miao Xuanxuan looked at Song Xiaodong as if he had seen a monster.
Squinting, Song Xiaodong said, “Do you an to say that if a beauty asks
to be her boyfriend, that’s a great honor for , and I should eagerly agree to it?”
“Isn’t that the case?” Miao Xuanxuan retorted.
Song Xiaodong shook his head and said, “I really don’t understand why you won nowadays are so self-confident.
Why do you think that if you want a man to do sothing, he should just do it?”
Miao Xuanxuan’s lips twitched, realizing that most won indeed seed to think that way, just as she did.
But saying it outright seed to be completely unreasonable.
Song Xiaodong offered a slight smile and said, “I’m not lacking in beauties, so I won’t bow down for a woman.
In this world, there’s only one woman who can get
to do anything she wants, who can make
go against my own will to do sothing.”
“Sister Xiaoru,” Miao Xuanxuan said the na subconsciously.
Song Xiaodong nodded, his voice softening instantly, “Exactly!”
“Sis-con!” Miao Xuanxuan scornfully glanced at Song Xiaodong.
With a smug smile, Song Xiaodong declared, “I am a sis-con, what about it?”
Miao Xuanxuan gave Song Xiaodong a disdainful look again and said, “Hey, haven’t you and Miao Qingqing made up and even rented a room together?
Now she’s acknowledging you, and if you don’t agree now, are you trying to back out?”
Song Xiaodong replied, “Acknowledging or not is one thing, but this is the principle of being a man.”
“Principle, my foot, just machismo.” Miao Xuanxuan retorted with a face full of contempt.
As the two bickered, Miao Qingqing’s call ca through again.
As soon as the call connected, Miao Qingqing began, “Song Xiaodong, consider this
asking for your help.
Can you help
out this once?
I can’t handle my dad anymore.”
“You’re asking ?” Song Xiaodong asked with a smile.
Miao Xuanxuan looked at Song Xiaodong’s expression, feeling like he really deserved a beating.
Miao Qingqing imdiately said, “Yes!
I’m asking you.
We’re friends after all, aren’t we?
Just help
out this ti.”
Song Xiaodong could imagine Miao Qingqing clenching her teeth in irritation and eventually said with a reluctant tone, “Alright, I kind of like the way you put that.
Even if it ans taking the bla for you, I’ll accept it.”
“Great, so where are you now?
I’ll co and pick you up right away.”
“Isn’t it a reception we’re attending tonight?”
“I need to take you to get ready.
We should at least buy a couple of suits and get your hairstyle sorted out, right?”
Song Xiaodong laughed and said, “Such a good deal, then okay.”
Once Song Xiaodong put away his phone, Miao Xuanxuan imdiately looked at him with contempt and said, “I think you’re just being lodramatic.
In the end, you agreed anyway, so why put on this act?”
“It’s about attitude, sothing that must be adhered to.
Let
tell you, if you wanted
to be your boyfriend, it would be the sa thing,” he responded.
“Pfft!
When I asked you to pretend to be my boyfriend, you agreed readily enough.
I think you’re just being lodramatic with my sister.
I despise you,” Miao Xuanxuan said.
Song Xiaodong took a bite of his noodles and said, “That’s true, I really got the short end of the stick there.
You’ll have to compensate
later.”
“Dream on, it was you who agreed back then,” Miao Xuanxuan suddenly beca smug.
“Then you better not ask
for such favors in the future.”
“Hmph, I wouldn’t ask you anyway,” she huffed.
“Feeling so confident?” Song Xiaodong squinted his eyes and said, “I just fear that if I say I’m not your boyfriend inside the clubhouse, many people will be excitedly howling.”
Without a second thought, Miao Xuanxuan blurted out, “Then just pretend to be my boyfriend again.”
Song Xiaodong asked in confusion, “Huh?
Didn’t you say you would never ask
again?”
“Yes!” Miao Xuanxuan looked at Song Xiaodong with a grin and said, “Now that you’re with Miao Qingqing, you’ll be my brother-in-law, so why would I need to ask my brother-in-law for a favor when I ask you as your little niece-in-law?”
Seeing Miao Xuanxuan’s scheming little fox expression, Song Xiaodong couldn’t help but smile.
