"Look at you two! Like master, like apprentice! One crooked beam after another!"
"Director Qiao, give an explanation, will ya? I can’t sleep tonight if I don’t figure this out!" Song Xiaodong asked Qiao Yutong, grinning cheekily.
"You two..."
Qiao Yutong couldn’t help but laugh at Song Xiaodong and Lu Yaobing’s eager expressions, then she straightened her face and seriously said, "Ahem, ahem, you need to look at things with a developnt perspective. Although the wound is covered by the chest now, what about before?"
"Hmm?" Song Xiaodong and Lu Yaobing didn’t get it.
"Before, my chest was smaller, so the dagger could reach that spot." Qiao Yutong glared at Song Xiaodong and Lu Yaobing in mock anger.
"Oh..." Song Xiaodong and Lu Yaobing suddenly understood.
"Sister Qiao, it seems you are right, it looks like there’s hope for too!" Lu Yaobing looked down at herself and said to Qiao Yutong.
Qiao Yutong, wanting to tease Lu Yaobing, said, "It still depends on your constitution, so people are innately lacking, and developnt might be limited even after birth."
"Sister Qiao!" Lu Yaobing said to Qiao Yutong, displeased.
"Alright, Director Qiao, when you make up your mind, let know. I’ll do a minor costic surgery for you; considering our relationship, I’ll give you a family price—just repay with affection ten tis." Song Xiaodong said to Qiao Yutong.
"To hell with it! Ten tis? Can you even manage that?" Qiao Yutong rolled her eyes at Song Xiaodong.
"Oh right, and those Warming Palace Cold Dispelling Pills I sent you this afternoon, market price is twenty thousand for one. I gave you at least thirty pills, that’s six to seven hundred thousand yuan, Director Qiao, it’s like the cost of keeping a mistress!" Song Xiaodong said again.
"Geez, why don’t you go rob soone? Those pills of yours, made from soot in the pot, sll like rust mixed with herb scraps, and you call it twenty thousand yuan? Heartless profit!" Qiao Yutong said.
"Profit? Selling you for twenty thousand, I am losing money, not to ntion labor costs. Do you know how many precious dicines went into those pills? You don’t know how lucky you are." Song Xiaodong also rolled his eyes at Qiao Yutong.
"Hmph, I have no money, can’t afford it." Qiao Yutong hugged her arms, tilted her head, and looked up at the ceiling.
"Repay with affection!" Song Xiaodong shrugged.
"Look at your teacher!" Qiao Yutong pointed at Song Xiaodong and said to Lu Yaobing.
"Master, Sister Qiao is upset, shouldn’t you comfort her?" Lu Yaobing blinked her big eyes.
"She’s upset? She’s upset every day!" Song Xiaodong said to Qiao Yutong.
"That’s because you didn’t comfort her well!" Lu Yaobing said.
"What else am I supposed to do? Day in and day out, I’m giving dicine and checking on her; what more does she want?" Song Xiaodong looked at Qiao Yutong and said.
"Figure it out yourself!" Qiao Yutong glanced at Song Xiaodong and said.
"Alright, Master, keep Director Qiao company; I can go by myself." Lu Yaobing said.
"No way, it’s not safe; I’ll take you." Song Xiaodong said.
"Master, Director Qiao lives alone, also not safe." Lu Yaobing smiled at Qiao Yutong.
"I’m a deputy director, and I have a gun, what’s unsafe for ?" Qiao Yutong said to Song Xiaodong.
"Director Qiao, we’re leaving. Yaobing is young, I’m not comfortable, I’ll walk her ho." Song Xiaodong stated.
"Go ahead.".
Qiao Yutong escorted the two out.
Song Xiaodong sent Qiao Yutong ho, and then returned ho himself.
"Where have you been?" Song Xiaodong returned ho, and Sun Yiyi was accompanying Song Xiaoru watching TV when she saw Song Xiaodong co back, she asked with a teasing smile.
"Went to treat Director Qiao." Song Xiaodong replied.
"How did it go?" Sun Yiyi asked.
"Needs surgery." Song Xiaodong replied.
"Surgery?"
"Not the kind of surgery in the hospital, it’s using silver needles for stitching and treatnt." Song Xiaodong explained.
"Oh..."
"Xiaodong was tinkering downstairs all afternoon today, just to make dicine for Director Qiao." Li Sijie heard Song Xiaodong co back, and ca out smiling to say to everyone.
"Hmph! Xuanxuan and I feel uncomfortable all the ti, and no one cares." Miao Qingqing’s voice ca from the room.
"You two eat so well, and the fetuses are fine, I don’t even need to check, just by your voices I can tell you two are healthy." Song Xiaodong shouted into Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan’s room.
"You’re biased!" Miao Qingqing shouted back.
"Hey, why is your progress with Director Qiao so slow?" Sun Yiyi asked Song Xiaodong.
"Hey, it’s my fault for not seizing the opportunity." Song Xiaodong sighed.
"What’s up?" Song Xiaoru asked from the side.
"Aren’t you sending soone to deliver dicine to Director Qiao today? In the evening, Director Qiao invited to dinner, I thought, might as well help Director Qiao look at the scars on her body, and brought my apprentice along." Song Xiaodong said.
"Are you stupid or what!" Sun Yiyi also knocked Song Xiaodong’s head.
"Hey. It’s alright, I already have you all, don’t need another deputy director." Song Xiaodong went to hug Sun Yiyi.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Sun Yiyi enthusiastically turned around and sat on Song Xiaodong’s lap.
Just as Song Xiaodong was about to explore further, a phone call ca.
It’s General Zhao Ruonan calling.
"Quick, quick, get down, get down!" Song Xiaodong hugged Sun Yiyi’s waist to get her down.
"What’s up? Changing attitude so fast?" Sun Yiyi sat back on the sofa displeased, seeing Song Xiaodong’s serious expression, she didn’t say anything further.
"General Zhao."
"Sect Leader Song, this ti, there’s sothing I need your Dragon Gate to help with." General Zhao said.
"Please instruct, General Zhao."
"Take your people to Lop Nur."
"When?"
"Now."
"Alright."
Song Xiaodong hung up the phone, looked at Song Xiaoru and said, "Sis, we have a mission for the country."
"Another mission?" Song Xiaoru asked Song Xiaodong in surprise.
"Yeah."
"Send your Dragon Gate people, don’t take Yiyi and Xianling." Song Xiaoru stretched out her hand to protect Sun Yiyi, said to Song Xiaodong.
"Sis, it’s fine! Look at , haven’t I recovered well enough? Song Xiaodong is the leader of Dragon Gate, and we’re the wives of the leader of Dragon Gate, so we are Dragon Gate people too!" Sun Yiyi said to Song Xiaodong.
"Then you have to ensure their safety. If they co back with injuries again, I won’t forgive you!" Song Xiaoru said to Song Xiaodong.
"Don’t worry! This ti it’s dostic, much safer than last ti." Song Xiaodong replied.
"Where to?" Chu Xianling also ca out, and asked Song Xiaodong.
"Lop Nur."
"To the desert?" Sun Yiyi’s eyes lit up.
"Who knows what dangers are waiting for us there. Are you really that excited?" Song Xiaodong thought to himself while watching Sun Yiyi, but didn’t say anything for fear of worrying his sister and his wife.
