912: Chapter 913 I’m an Idiot
Song Xiaodong let out a sigh and said, “I feel a bit awkward.
When Xiao Ling and Xiao Shu ca to , it felt very natural because we already knew each other, and those two little girls were used to playing around with .
They’re sincere, so it’s easy for
to accept them.
But Sun Ziyun was sent here by the Sun family, and we didn’t know each other at all before.
For
to instantly treat her as my woman, I truly feel sowhat…”
Song Xiaoru furrowed her brows and said, “But she’s already here.
You can’t exactly send her back, can you?
Besides, I’ve noticed her efforts around our household—she’s very earnest and works hard everywhere.
She’s clearly trying to get your validation.
Ignoring her isn’t fair to her, and you can’t let her stay here forever in this awkward position, can you?”
Song Xiaodong said helplessly, “I don’t know what to do either.
I guess the prerequisite is fostering so feelings first?”
Song Xiaoru responded, “Then you absolutely have to give her so opportunities.
If you don’t spend ti with her, how can you cultivate any feelings?
Or…
should you just go to bed with her?
Once you’ve done that, the feelings might co naturally, right?
Back in the day, weren’t many couples strangers before they wed?”
“Pfft…” Song Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, “Sister, your idea is…”
“Hehe…” Song Xiaoru chuckled lightly and said, “I admit, my idea might not be great, but it does seem pretty straightforward.”
Song Xiaodong said, “I think I’ve always been resistant to marriages based on benefits.
That bias might be why I’ve felt this repulsion toward her.
Forget it—if there’s an event in the future, I’ll take her out more often, as you suggested.
I can’t send her back, but leaving her here and treating her poorly would be equally cruel.”
Song Xiaoru nodded and said, “Hmm, it’s good that you think this way.”
Right at that mont, Sun Ziyun walked in.
Seeing Song Xiaodong and Song Xiaoru sitting close together, she smiled and said, “Family Head, Sister Xiaoru.”
Song Xiaoru got up and said, “You two chat.
I’m going to take a shower.”
Once Song Xiaoru left, Song Xiaodong still felt a bit awkward.
He adjusted his emotions and said, “Co, have a seat.”
Sun Ziyun sat down beside Song Xiaodong but didn’t sit as close as other won might have.
Instead, she maintained a slight distance from him.
Song Xiaodong asked, “What have you been busy with lately?”
Sun Ziyun t his gaze and said, “Recently, I’ve been learning a few things from my aunt.
She’s truly a very capable woman.”
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, “I haven’t really talked to you much lately.
Do you have any complaints in your heart?”
Sun Ziyun bit her lip and said, “Complaints?
Not really.
I understand that there’s still a lot of unfamiliarity between us.”
Song Xiaodong took out a cigarette, and Sun Ziyun promptly helped him light it.
After taking a drag, he said, “I know this situation is unfair to you.
It’s normal if you feel so resentnt.
I was just talking about this with my sister earlier—I admit that I have so inner resistance to arranged marriages.
But you’re not at fault.
Still, you’re in the most awkward position right now, and my decisions will impact your entire life.”
Sun Ziyun bit her lip again and stayed silent.
As a woman who’s been relegated to the “Cold Palace,” how could the feeling be anything but miserable?
It was especially hard to watch Song Xiaodong interact with others as usual, while only she remained an exception.
Song Xiaodong continued, “Going forward, if there are any events, I’ll try to bring you along more often.
We’ll have more chances to communicate.
I think that might make things better.”
Sun Ziyun imdiately looked at Song Xiaodong with excitent.
Clenching her fists, she said, “So you’re really starting to think about accepting .”
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, “I need to like you first—that’s the key.
Don’t you think?”
“Absolutely!
I’ll make sure you like .
I definitely will!” Sun Ziyun raised her fist and swung it confidently.
Song Xiaodong chuckled and said, “Instead of jumping straight into talking about feelings and life, why don’t you tell
about yourself and your past?
Of course, if it involves Sun family matters, you can skip those.”
Sun Ziyun looked even happier; this gesture clearly signified Song Xiaodong’s effort to connect, marking a positive start.
She said, “As for Sun family matters, I really don’t know much.
If you ask , there’s not much I can tell.
After all, won in the Sun family don’t really have any status.
Only here can I truly find a sense of existence.
I’ve thought about it—if you really can’t accept , I’ll focus on becoming a career-oriented woman instead.
That way, my life will still have goals and won’t feel lonely.
But if you do accept , that would be even better.
At least I’d feel more justified and at peace when pursuing those goals.”
Song Xiaodong said, “A career-driven female powerhouse—that works too.
I prefer won who have pursuits and ambitions, not just decorative ‘vases.’ It’s not about earning money; it’s about having your own aspirations, which add to a woman’s charm.”
Sun Ziyun gazed at Song Xiaodong and said, “That’s exactly why I like you so much.
Within the family, n are all steeped in chauvinism.
Only a Family Head like you respects won enough to allow us to achieve a better sense of self.”
Song Xiaodong laughed heartily and said, “Maybe one day I’ll stop doing anything and rely entirely on my wives to support .”
“Pfft…” Sun Ziyun laughed as well and said, “I think that’s absolutely possible.
The only issue might be that you’d get bored out of your mind.”
The relaxed atmosphere between them continued, and Sun Ziyun shared so amusing anecdotes about her past, as well as a few insights about the Sun family.
“By the way, are you familiar with Sun Yiyi?” Song Xiaodong suddenly thought of Sun Yiyi and asked casually.
“Sun Yiyi?
We don’t have anyone by that na in our family.” Sun Ziyun frowned in thought, then shook her head.
“No one nad Sun Yiyi in the Sun family?” Song Xiaodong was a bit taken aback.
Sun Ziyun confird, “Right, none.
Everyone in the current generation of the Sun family—male or female—has ‘Zi’ as the middle character.”
“So there’s no outrageously charming woman in the Sun family who might lure n into trouble at first sight?”
Sun Ziyun said, “No, I’ve never heard of such a person either.”
Song Xiaodong was montarily stunned, his brows furrowing.
“What’s wrong?
What’s the deal with this Sun Yiyi?”
“Sun One…
Sun Yiyi…” Song Xiaodong’s mouth twitched slightly, then he suddenly laughed and said, “It’s nothing—I just suddenly feel like an idiot.”
