Chapter 2256: Chapter 2085: Whispering (Part 4)
"I told you, don’t call me Director Qiao!"
Qiao Yutong didn’t want to give Song Xiaodong something in front of his wives, so she parked the car earlier.
After delivering it, Qiao Yutong drove the car to the entrance of the Su Family Courtyard. The two got out of the car and handed it to the Su Family Guard.
As soon as they got out of the car, a cold wind of late autumn night blew. Qiao Yutong couldn’t help but shiver.
Song Xiaodong thought for a moment, unfolded the scarf that Qiao Yutong had given him, draped it over Qiao Yutong’s back, then twisted her body. Qiao Yutong turned stiffly in a circle, and the scarf wrapped her up tightly.
"Why are you wearing so thin?" Song Xiaodong asked.
"Deputy Mayor Han asked me to accompany you. If I don’t dress nicely, how can I be a vase?" Qiao Yutong’s blush had not completely faded.
"Come inside and sit for a while." Song Xiaodong said.
"No, thanks. You have too many wives. I’d get dizzy." Qiao Yutong refused.
"Come on, have some hot water. I’ll have them find you some clothes."
Song Xiaodong directly took Qiao Yutong’s arm and led her into the Su Family Courtyard.
Qiao Yutong had no choice but to follow.
The scene at the entrance of the Su Family Courtyard didn’t escape Miao Qingqing’s eyes.
"Look, look, this is outrageous, so outrageous!" Miao Qingqing shouted to the others from the sofa.
"What’s wrong?"
Song Xiaoru, Miao Xuanxuan, Xiao Yingying, Sun Yiyi, Chu Xianling, Lin Su’er, and the others came over.
They saw Song Xiaodong wrapping a scarf around Qiao Yutong, wrapping her up tightly, then pulling her arm towards the three-story villa where he and his wives lived.
"Oh my, such a gentleman?" Chu Xianling said sourly.
"They’re so lovey-dovey, it’s endless!" Miao Xuanxuan said indignantly.
"Alright, alright, they’re coming in. Those who are jealous, go hide in the room. Those who aren’t, put on a smiling face." Song Xiaoru told everyone.
"Hehehe..."
A group of women put on smiles that looked almost like crying.
"You all, go inside!" Song Xiaoru simply shooed everyone away.
The group of women went to their rooms, leaving only Song Xiaoru behind.
Song Xiaodong took Qiao Yutong upstairs and knocked on the door.
"Coming!"
Song Xiaoru, pretending not to know anything, opened the door.
"Oh, Director Qiao is here!" Song Xiaoru said to Qiao Yutong, "overjoyed."
"Sister." Qiao Yutong also nodded and smiled at Song Xiaoru.
"Come in! It’s cold outside!" Song Xiaoru quickly invited Qiao Yutong in.
Qiao Yutong came in and sat down on the sofa.
"You must be cold. Let me pour you some hot tea." Song Xiaoru said as she went to pour water.
"Sister, there’s no need!" Qiao Yutong politely said.
"Come on, don’t be so formal!"
Soon, Song Xiaoru brought over three cups of water, one for each of them: Song Xiaodong, Qiao Yutong, and herself.
"Xiaodong, you drank again?" Song Xiaoru smelled the alcohol.
"I did, quite a bit actually. I told him not to drink, but he insisted he has a drinker’s constitution," Qiao Yutong said to Song Xiaoru.
"Is that so? A drinker? Do you remember Er Laicai from the east end of our old village? He drank heavily every day and had a stroke before he was fifty." Song Xiaoru told Song Xiaodong.
"Sister, I really do have a drinker’s constitution." Song Xiaodong said to Song Xiaoru.
"What nonsense. There’s no such thing as a drinker’s constitution." Song Xiaoru responded.
"Some people turn red when they drink, some turn pale, some sweat. Turning red means it affects the liver, turning pale affects the kidneys, sweating metabolizes through the skin directly. These people naturally have the enzyme to digest alcohol, hence a born drinker’s constitution." Song Xiaodong explained.

"Hey, now that you say it, you really do sweat when you drink!" Song Xiaoru nodded.
"Exactly, that’s why I can’t get drunk. All the alcohol sweats out." Song Xiaodong said.
"I just turn red; does that mean it harms the liver?" Song Xiaoru said.
"Yes." Song Xiaodong nodded.
"I turn red too when I drink." Qiao Yutong also said.
"Hurts the liver, so drink less." Song Xiaodong said.
"Even with a drinker’s constitution, you should drink less. Qiao still has to take you home!" Song Xiaoru gave Song Xiaodong a look.
"Sister, it’s fine, really, it’s no trouble." Qiao Yutong quickly waved her hand.
"You really have the nerve, once or twice is okay, but having Qiao take you home every time after drinking? How do you have such face?" Song Xiaoru scolded Song Xiaodong.
"Sister, it’s really no big deal." Qiao Yutong said again.
"Quick, drink some water to warm up. The temperature dropped today; it’s cold at night." Song Xiaoru said.
"Okay." Qiao Yutong then picked up the cup and took a sip of water.
"Hmm, so fragrant!" Qiao Yutong said, looking at the large tea leaves in the cup.
"Isn’t it delicious?" Song Xiaoru said proudly.
Then, she turned her gaze to Song Xiaodong and said, "Sijie’s second brother sent it, said a monk from Yiquan Temple gave it, it’s indeed different from what we buy."
"Yes." Qiao Yutong also nodded.
"You know tea as well?" Song Xiaodong asked in disbelief.
"What do you mean by ’I know as well’?" Qiao Yutong asked, teasing slightly, unintentionally revealing her temper.
After saying that, Qiao Yutong realized that Song Xiaoru was still there and felt a bit embarrassed, quietly looking at Song Xiaoru with a glance.
Song Xiaoru continued to smile at the two of them, as if she hadn’t heard anything.
"If Director Qiao likes it, I can give you some. Feng Shuo sent a big bag, it’ll spoil if not drunk soon." Song Xiaoru said to Qiao Yutong.
"Sister, if I like it, I can just come over often, can’t I?" Qiao Yutong said with a smile to Song Xiaoru.
