524: Chapter 525 Candlelight Dinner

The eting isn’t until tomorrow, and Song Xiaoru had nothing to do tonight.

After Song Xiaodong left, she organized her things, pulled out her laptop, and started preparing for tomorrow’s eting while also handling so work.

Once she got busy, two hours flew by and the room had grown dark.

Just as Song Xiaoru was about to turn on the light, a knock ca at the door.

She went to the doorway and asked, “Who is it?”

“Sis, it’s .” Song Xiaodong’s voice ca from outside.

“Ah!” Song Xiaoru exclaid excitedly and quickly went over to open the door, only to see Song Xiaodong standing there with his hands behind his back, asking, “Why are you back so soon?”

“Just grabbing sothing, of course I was quick.

Sis, this is for you.” As Song Xiaodong spoke, he brought his hands to the front and presented a large bunch of pink lilies.

“Ah!” Song Xiaoru stood still in surprise, unable to move, her eyes fixed on the large bunch of lilies.

“What’s the matter?

Don’t you like them?” Song Xiaodong felt sowhat embarrassed by Song Xiaoru’s reaction and said, “I rember lilies are your favorite flowers.”

Suddenly, Song Xiaoru reached out, took the lilies from Song Xiaodong’s hands, and brought them to her nose to sniff, saying with a smile full of joy, “They sll wonderful.”

“You gave

a scare.

I thought I got the wrong ones for a second.” Song Xiaodong ca in and closed the door, putting his arm around Song Xiaoru’s shoulder as they walked further into the room.

“You little stinker, why are you giving

flowers?” Song Xiaoru turned to look at Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong gave a slight smile and said, “There’s a flower shop right by the hotel entrance.

I passed by it and on a whim, decided to buy my sister so flowers.”

Song Xiaoru said, “You rascal, why are you buying

flowers?

You should be buying them for your girlfriend.”

Song Xiaodong chuckled and replied, “Now that you ntion it, I’ve never actually bought flowers for Qingqing.

Makes

seem pretty inattentive as a boyfriend.”

Song Xiaoru felt another sweet sensation in her heart.

Song Xiaodong hadn’t bought flowers for his girlfriend but thought to buy them for his sister, clearly showing that in his heart, his sister was more important.

Not that Song Xiaoru wanted to compete for that, but such a gesture couldn’t help but make her happy.

“Sis, have you eaten yet?

I haven’t had dinner, and I’m starving,” Song Xiaodong asked, rubbing his stomach.

“Ah, I completely forgot.

Let’s go out together then.”

Song Xiaodong replied, “No need to go through the trouble, I can just have sothing sent over from the hotel.”

After a mont of thought, Song Xiaoru said, “That works, I do have so things I still need to finish.”

“Alright, you carry on with your work.

I’ll take care of it.” Having said that, he headed out the door straight away.

Song Xiaoru returned to her work, the large bouquet of lovely lilies beside her, their fragrant scent filling the air and improving her mood indescribably.

After a short ti, Song Xiaodong ca back, and seeing that Song Xiaoru hadn’t finished her work yet, he went straight to take a shower.

After Song Xiaodong finished showering, Song Xiaoru was also done working and went to take her shower.

She’d hardly been in for a mont when a knock sounded once more.

She quickly asked, “Dongzi, could you see who it is?”

As Song Xiaodong walked towards the door, he said, “Sis, it’s probably the food delivery.”

Song Xiaodong rose and opened the door, where stood three waiters, each with a small cart in front of them.

“Good evening, sir, here is the dinner you ordered.”

Song Xiaodong made a gesture for them to co in, and the waiters imdiately understood, quietly wheeling the carts inside.

They then placed each exquisite dish on the table and lit the candles before silently retreating.

After Song Xiaoru finished her bath, she ca out only to find the room’s lighting much dimr and said, “Dongzi, why is it so dark in here?

What did you turn off the lights for?

Huh?”

While talking, Song Xiaoru walked toward the living room, but as soon as she saw what was set up on the table by the balcony, she was stunned.

The table was laid with exquisite dishes, and there were two candlesticks on it, the candles flickering a red glow, which explained why the room was so dim.

In the recent ti, Song Xiaoru had worked with Miao Qingqing and attended several high-class gatherings, so her exposure had increased significantly.

However, she’d never ordered like this in a hotel before, and such preparations left her at a loss for words.

“Not bad, slls pretty good,” Song Xiaodong said as he took hold of Song Xiaoru’s hand.

“Let’s have a good al tonight.”

Song Xiaoru, still sowhat dazed, sat down and said, “This…

Why are we having a candlelit dinner, just the two of us?”

Song Xiaodong poured two glasses of red wine before sitting opposite Song Xiaoru.

He raised his glass and said, “Sis, I never took you out to enjoy life properly before.

Now that we have the chance, of course I want to treat you to the finer things.”

“You…

This is so extravagant,” Song Xiaoru shook her head.

Song Xiaodong smiled slightly, “Money is earned to be enjoyed.

Forget about being extravagant or not, co on, sis, cheers.”

Song Xiaoru picked up her wine glass and swirled it slightly; the red wine moved in the glass, reflecting the candlelight in a vibrantly rich red hue, indescribably beautiful.

A candlelit dinner has a significant impact on every woman; in such a setting, any woman would be involuntarily imrsed in the special atmosphere, intoxicated and happy.

The two chatted in low voices as they dined.

They finished a whole bottle of red wine, and even Song Xiaoru drank quite a bit, her cheeks flushed, looking indescribably charming.

“Ah, I think I’ve drunk a little too much,” Song Xiaoru said as she stood up and swayed slightly.

Song Xiaodong imdiately ca over to wrap his arm around her waist.

“If you’re drunk, then we can go to sleep.

There’s nothing else on, anyway.”

“A presidential suite in a five-star hotel costs over ten thousand a night.

It would be a waste to go to sleep so early,” Song Xiaoru gave Song Xiaodong a glance.

Song Xiaodong chuckled softly, “Then, what do you want to do?

I’ll keep you company, or shall we go down for a SPA?”

“No need, that would require changing clothes.

I want to lie down for a bit,” Song Xiaoru headed towards the suite.

Song Xiaodong, with his arm still around her waist, followed her and Song Xiaoru scolded, “Why are you coming in with ?

Didn’t I tell you to get your own room?”

“A presidential suite, you know.

Getting another room is so expensive.”

“You little rascal,” Song Xiaoru lightly tapped on Song Xiaodong’s forehead and said, “You can stay and talk, but if you get sleepy later, you have to sleep in the outer room.”

Song Xiaodong grinned, “However you say it, sis, that’s how it will be.”

“That’s the spirit.” Song Xiaoru pursed her lips in a smile, turned her head, and gently kissed Song Xiaodong’s face.
