Chapter 673 [The Queen's Birthday Invitation]

Chengdu Second People's Hospital.

The sky outside the window gradually turned a reddish-orange.

After completing the discharge procedures, Cheng Qiuqiu returned to the ward with a distracted expression.

"Miss Cheng!" "Miss Cheng!"

The security guards from Sheng Tang, who were standing at the door, bowed slightly.

Cheng Qiuqiu quickly followed suit, bending down before walking briskly into the ward.

Lawyer Luo Bin has been gone for almost an hour, but she is still somewhat dazed.

It feels like a dream.

Of course she knew Tang Song was very capable; she had witnessed his grandeur during a team-building event in Wushan.

But she never expected that Tang Song would care about her so much.

Chengdu and Yancheng are 1300 kilometers apart.

Despite being so busy, he still quietly kept an eye on his own situation.

They even arranged for lawyers and security personnel in advance.

For Cheng Qiuqiu, who has lacked a sense of security and belonging since childhood, her inner feelings are beyond words.

She didn't even know how to say "thank you" to Tang Song.

So until now, I haven't dared to call him.

Upon seeing her daughter walk in, Li Meihua, who had been restless, immediately went to greet her and grabbed her daughter's hand.

She first glanced cautiously at the man in the black suit guarding the door, and then pulled Qiuqiu to the innermost part of the ward.

In a voice only the two of them could hear, she asked urgently, "Qiuqiu, that...that President Tang, who exactly is he?"

She had been holding those words in for a full three hours.

There were many people in the ward talking a lot, so she didn't dare to ask too many questions.

Now, finally only the mother and daughter are left.

The image of those prominent lawyers who only existed in news reports, the black-clad bodyguards who only appeared in TV dramas, and the arrogant yet obsequious attitude of the two people from [Xuyuan Real Estate] and [Xiongshi Security] were all too impactful for Li Meihua.

Qiuqiu was silent for a moment before whispering, "He is my current boss."

"Boss?" Li Meihua was taken aback. "Is that the new company you mentioned, the one with a monthly salary of over ten thousand? Why would he do us such a big favor?"

Qiuqiu bit her lip, her expression becoming somewhat unnatural, and she did not answer her mother's question.

Li Meihua's heart skipped a beat. She stared intently into her daughter's eyes. "Could it be... that he has feelings for you?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Qiuqiu lowered her head and sat down on the stool in the corner. "It's none of your business."

Seeing her daughter's expression, Li Meihua instantly understood what was going on.

This was her own flesh and blood. Even though there was a lack of communication between them, she still knew what kind of personality Qiuqiu had.

If there really wasn't anything wrong, given her cold and stubborn nature, she would definitely have immediately spoken up in rebuttal, instead of acquiescing like she is now.

In other words, she really did have an ambiguous relationship with this mysterious boss.

That makes sense. If it weren't for this special close relationship, why would they help you with such a big favor?

Mobilizing such a huge amount of energy? Are they just bored and have nothing better to do?

She grabbed her daughter's arm, her face full of panic, "Qiuqiu... what... what's going on?! I heard from Xiao Gao that you had a boyfriend in Yancheng, and he's a scumbag who's been cheating on you with several women! And now, how come your boss has suddenly appeared? What's going on?!"

Cheng Qiuqiu looked at her mother, pursed her lips, and finally spoke, "The two people you mentioned are actually the same person."

Upon hearing this, Li Meihua was completely stunned: "What...this..."

She never imagined that the "damned scumbag" and "daughter's boyfriend" she had been secretly cursing was actually her now all-powerful boss.

This situation was completely beyond her comprehension.

Just then, Qiuqiu added something even more incomprehensible to her: "Besides, he's not my boyfriend, so don't talk nonsense."

Li Meihua suddenly exerted force with her hand.

A terrible thought popped into my head.

Not my boyfriend?
Could she be someone's kept mistress?

Once the thought came to mind, it could no longer be suppressed.

She spent half her life struggling at the bottom of society, in restaurant kitchens and in those mixed places where all sorts of people mingled. What kind of sordid things hadn't she seen?
What kind of filthy things haven't you heard?
A wealthy boss and a young, beautiful female subordinate.

Do we even need to guess what's going on behind the scenes?

Our family owes them such a huge favor. What could that powerful boss possibly want from us?

It's nothing more than wanting his daughter's naturally beautiful appearance.

No wonder... no wonder Qiuqiu, who just graduated, could earn such a high salary.

A sense of humiliation, mixed with anger at her daughter's "disappointment," instantly welled up in her heart.

How did her daughter, on whom she placed all her hopes and was so proud, end up on such a path?

She opened her mouth, looked at her daughter's stubborn face, but couldn't utter a single word of the question she had prepared.

Because she knew that it was her incompetence that had caused her daughter to suffer so much over the years.

She was brainless, which is why she lost the last bit of money in the family.

Now, it's that big boss who's spending money and effort to pull the mother and daughter out of this quagmire, hiring the best lawyers in the country and bodyguards to protect them.

What can she use to hurl insults?
Thinking of that "boss" who might be older than himself, and his beautiful daughter.

Li Meihua was so heartbroken she could hardly breathe.

at this time.

"Boom boom boom——"

The knock on the door sounded again.

Su Wenxuan, wearing a white coat, walked in, holding a document in his hand.

"Dr. Su, you've arrived."

"Aunt Li, this is your final injury assessment report and discharge summary. The hospital office has already stamped them. Please keep them safe."

"Oh, thank you so much, Dr. Su." Li Meihua quickly accepted the gift with both hands.

"You're welcome, you should."

Su Wenxuan stood there, his gaze unconsciously glancing at Qiuqiu by the window, creating an awkward atmosphere.

He couldn't help but recall the look of shock on his classmate's face when he saw Luo Bin's "legal dream team"—the look was so intense it made him almost kneel down on the spot.

That scene was simply unbelievable.

Although he was very curious about the origins of the mysterious "President Tang" and the true relationship between him and Qiuqiu.

But he was also self-aware enough to know that he and she were from two different worlds.

He's someone who can take things in stride and let them go easily.

Ultimately, his attraction to this aloof girl was mostly fleeting, after all, she was just too beautiful.

In terms of personality, she's not really suited to be a wife.

After a brief chat, Su Wenxuan used the excuse of checking the rooms to turn around and leave.

Looking at his tall and elegant back, Li Meihua felt an indescribable sense of regret.

In her opinion, Dr. Su was truly a perfect match, one in a million.

His profession, family background, and personality are all impeccable.

He's good-looking and a perfect match for my daughter.

She didn't know what kind of person the mysterious "President Tang" was, but subconsciously, she always felt that such a powerful boss should be an older, serious middle-aged man.

I wanted to ask, but I was worried that the security guard at the door would hear me.

...

After packing the few belongings I had, everything was ready.

The security personnel at Sheng Tang were extremely efficient; one person easily carried all the items in their hands.

Accompanied by four burly men in black suits, they walked out.

In the corridor, whether it was the doctors and nurses who were usually in a hurry or other patients' family members, they all subconsciously stepped aside when they saw them, casting glances that were a mixture of awe and curiosity.

After going downstairs, I saw a black and solemn Mercedes-Benz V-Class minivan parked quietly at the entrance.

The bodyguard opened the car door, and the mother and daughter got in somewhat awkwardly.

The car has a spacious interior, high-end materials, and is so quiet you can almost hear someone breathing.

Li Meihua sat stiffly in the large airline seat, her fingers gently caressing the soft and delicate Nappa leather.

Experiencing this unprecedented special treatment reserved only for important figures, he was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

The two vans drove along the main road for a while.

We slowly drove into an old resettlement housing community filled with a strong local atmosphere.

When the car arrived at the entrance of the residential area, the security guard who usually ignored her and even made things difficult for her almost immediately ran out of the guard booth and bowed and scraped as he personally raised the railing for them.

The brand-new, luxurious Mercedes-Benz van stands in stark and incongruous contrast to the surrounding dilapidated buildings and chaotic environment.

Cheng Qiuqiu lowered her head, clutching her phone in her hand, the screen displaying Tang Song's chat box.

She typed and deleted, hesitating over what to post.

Soon, the car approached the familiar Building No. 7.

Li Meihua looked out the window at the old neighbors who were gathered at the entrance of the mahjong parlor downstairs, pointing and gossiping about her.

I straightened my back instinctively.

Somewhat awkwardly, she pressed the button for the electric window, and the smooth window slid down silently.

She casually rested her elbow on the windowsill, a radiant smile on her face, and said in a strong voice:
"Hey, Aunt Wang and Sister Liu, are you two having a fierce battle here? Once I'm done with my work these next couple of days, I'll come and play a few rounds with you guys!"

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but loud enough for everyone to hear clearly.

Looking at their stunned expressions, their jaws practically dropping to the ground.

An overwhelming sense of vanity, mixed with a vengeful pleasure, instantly overwhelmed Li Meihua.

Having lived here for so many years, as an "orphan and widow" from out of town, and running a snack shop next door.

She was often talked about and gossiped about behind her back.

Especially regarding this unfinished house project and the injuries sustained while defending her rights, even a fool could have guessed it.

This group of people must have been spreading countless nasty rumors about her behind her back, waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

They might have just been mocking her.

Now, Li Meihua returns in a luxury car, accompanied by bodyguards.

It's a real triumph.

This feeling was so wonderful that it even lessened her worries about her daughter.

He waved to his neighbors.

Li Meihua closed the car window again and looked at the familiar building entrance in front of her.

Then, her expression froze.

Right at the entrance of the building, a young man was getting out of a two-tone Bentley.

He was wearing a simple white shirt with a high-quality camel-gray suit jacket.

He was tall and upright with broad shoulders and a narrow waist.

The last rays of dusk slanted down through the gaps between the buildings to the west, casting a soft golden outline over it.

Even just a profile view exudes a powerful aura that is hard to ignore, noble and serene.

Then he turned around and looked straight in their direction.

The evening breeze gently stirred the wisps of hair on his forehead, revealing a handsome face.

With a high nose bridge, well-defined lips, and deep eyes that shimmered in the light and shadow.

This is the most outstanding young person Li Meihua has ever met in her life.

And judging from that Bentley, it's obvious that the owner is either very rich or very powerful.

She subconsciously glanced at her daughter beside her; Qiuqiu was still looking down, staring blankly at her phone.

Li Meihua sighed inwardly. If her daughter could find a boyfriend like that, then... However, she also knew that it was all wishful thinking.

The Mercedes-Benz van slowly came to a stop.

The bodyguard got out of the car first and respectfully opened the door for them.

Li Meihua tugged at her daughter, who was still in a daze, and the two of them got off the bus one after the other.

Immediately afterwards, she saw Wang Kui, the leader of the four bodyguards, walk directly past the car and almost jog to the young man's side.

He bowed respectfully.

The voice was steady and filled with reverence: "Mr. Tang!"

“Mr. Tang!” The other three bodyguards also bowed, and did not straighten up for a long time.

Li Meihua stood there, completely stunned.

"Thank you for your hard work." The young man nodded slightly.

Qiuqiu's body trembled suddenly.

Suddenly, he raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound.

"Buzz—" A moment of dizziness flashed through my mind.

He appeared before her without any warning, having traveled thousands of miles.

In the early winter twilight of Chengdu, downstairs in the residential complex that holds so many of her gray memories.

Very unreal.

"Qiuqiu." Tang Song walked through the dim light and shadow to stand in front of her, looking at the designer who looked haggard.

"Ding! Congratulations player, the third flower of the [Dream Flower Seed] has successfully bloomed!"

Immediately afterwards, the camellia blooming on her head transformed into a starlight and entered his body.

[Comprehension +1]

Tang Song's mind cleared up.

However, there was no notification that the "planting and raising has ended" message, indicating that Qiuqiu still has potential to be tapped and has an extremely strong desire to repay him.

Qiuqiu stared blankly into his eyes, "Tang Song... what are you doing here?"

"Of course I was worried about you," his voice was full of obvious tenderness and concern. "How are you? Are you alright?"

"I'm fine..." Qiuqiu opened her dry lips, her eyes glistening with tears.

At that moment, her sense of security reached its peak.

It seemed that all fear and unease vanished with his arrival.

Then, Tang Song looked at the middle-aged woman beside him, whose face was full of shock.

He said politely and gently, "Hello, Auntie, I am Tang Song, Qiuqiu's friend."

"Oh...oh...you, hello..."

Li Meihua replied instinctively, her mind going completely blank.

Tang and Song Dynasties?

Is he "President Tang"?
Is he the boss of his daughter's?

How could it be such an... ridiculously young and handsome guy?!
The revolutionary cognitive shock, along with the heartfelt surprise, caused her body to tremble slightly.

Immediately afterwards, she took half a step forward, her voice trembling with excitement:

"Oh my, you're the CEO Tang that Qiuqiu was talking about!"

"Mr. Tang! Thank you so much! If it weren't for you...we...my daughter and I really wouldn't know what to do this time!"

"Quick...quickly come inside and sit down..."

She enthusiastically pulled Tang Song along, then tugged at her daughter who was still in a daze, and led the two of them upstairs to the second floor.

I went into the little house.

This is a typical old-style apartment from the 1990s. It is not large and the decoration style is outdated.

But every corner of the room was kept clean and tidy, full of the feeling of life.

Li Meihua busied herself pouring water and serving melon seeds and peanuts, showing great enthusiasm.

I only exchanged a few words with Tang Song.

She slapped her thigh, her face showing a hint of annoyance, and said, "Look at my brain! Nobody's home these past few days, and there's hardly any food in the fridge! Tang Song, wait here, I'll go downstairs and buy some fresh food right now. Tonight, I'll cook you some of the most authentic Sichuan home-style dishes myself!"

Tang Song quickly stood up: "Auntie, there's no need to go to so much trouble. We can just go out to eat. You've only just been discharged from the hospital, you need to rest well."

"How can that be!" Li Meihua's cheeks flushed with excitement. "You rarely come to our house and have helped us so much, how can we let you eat out! I used to run a small restaurant, and my cooking skills are no worse than those big restaurants!"

Then she instructed her daughter, "Qiuqiu! Treat Tang Song well and chat with him!"

After saying that, she grabbed a bag and hurriedly pushed open the door and left.

The room fell silent instantly.

Tang Song's gaze shifted to an open green wooden door on the right.

He looked into the room.

His first "dream" with Qiuqiu must have taken place in that room.

A strange feeling of déjà vu washed over me instantly.

The room's layout remained unchanged, but the furniture and decorations had all been replaced.

The old wooden window that used to creak in the night wind has been replaced with a brand new aluminum alloy window; the desk with the broken drawer has been transformed into a beautiful IKEA-style desk.

There are many posters of Su Yu on the wall.

Tang Song still clearly remembers Qiuqiu, the girl who was curled up in bed and trembling with fear in his dream.

At the age of thirteen, she suddenly came from the countryside of Sichuan Province to the bustling and unfamiliar metropolis of Chengdu, losing all her former friends.

Because of his accent, family background, and other reasons, he felt out of place and was often bullied.

Unfortunately, her mother was too busy making a living to take care of her...

It was in that environment that she developed her cold, aloof, and extremely insecure personality.

Tang Song sighed inwardly and turned his gaze back to Qiu Qiu, who was sitting on the sofa with her head down.

It seems that I see the shadow of that little girl from back then in her.

Tang Song's heart was stirred with emotion.

Noticing his gaze, Qiuqiu's expression instantly became somewhat unnatural, and she subconsciously shrank to the side.

Why have you suddenly become so distant? Or do you simply not want to talk to me?

"No!" Qiuqiu suddenly raised her head and hurriedly explained, "I...I just...thank you...for today..."

She stammered, too anxious to say anything.

"Okay, no need to explain, I understand." Tang Song smiled and naturally sat down next to her.

He reached out and gently put his arm around her waist and back.

Qiuqiu's body stiffened for a moment, but after breathing in his familiar scent, she quickly relaxed again.

I felt an indescribable sense of security, and I felt dizzy.

In the silence, only the clear sound of her heartbeat remained.

Tang Song's hand gently patted her slender back.

Qiuqiu's body is getting softer and softer.

Gradually, without realizing it, she found herself leaning against him.

All the tension and anxiety of the past few days seemed to find a safe harbor at this moment.

Qiuqiu quietly raised her head and looked at Tang Song's profile, which was so close to hers. An impulse that she herself could not understand surged into her heart.

He blurted out, "ba..."

The sound was very soft, but it was exceptionally clear in such a quiet environment.

She quickly shut her mouth tightly, her body trembling violently with immense shame.

What's wrong with her? Why can't she resist calling his name...?

Tang Song was taken aback, his expression somewhat strange. "What's wrong, Qiuqiu?"

"It's nothing! It's nothing!" Qiuqiu quickly shook her head, not daring to look into his eyes.

Tang Song took a deep breath, and the impulse that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time, mixed with pity and possessiveness, could no longer be suppressed.

With a slight effort, he lifted her up and placed her sideways on his lap.

"Ah...wooo—"

Qiuqiu let out a short gasp, before she could even react.

Tang Song leaned forward and forcefully kissed her cold, trembling lips.

Qiuqiu's eyes widened at first, then closed again.

She offered no resistance, allowing him to kiss and explore her.

Gradually, she even began to respond awkwardly and clumsily.

She poured all her dependence and love into this kiss.

I sensed the designer's compliance and breathed in her cool, ethereal fragrance.

An even stronger impulse surged up.

His hand gradually disappeared into thin air.

Immediately afterwards, I could clearly feel Qiuqiu's rapid heartbeat.

The Dream Flower Seed above their heads began to tremble and sway.

Qiuqiu was clearly startled and almost bit Tang Song.

He suddenly opened his eyes and was met with Tang Song's burning gaze.

Feeling his actions that left no room for refusal.

She subconsciously chose to comply, unable to muster the slightest thought of resistance.

In the quiet room, only the increasingly rapid breathing of the two intertwined bodies remained.

Tang Song watched as Qiu Qiu's usually aloof and icy face gradually became hot and flushed.

A tremendous sense of accomplishment and satisfaction instantly filled his heart.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

"Buzz-buzz-buzz-buzz-"

A sudden, piercing cell phone vibration came from the coffee table.

Qiuqiu, like a startled rabbit, woke up instantly.

She glanced at the phone on the coffee table, its screen lit up, and said softly, "It's...it's Lingling calling..."

"It's alright, you can go ahead and pick up yours." Tang Song remained unmoved.

Qiuqiu bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and then picked up her phone.

As soon as the call connected, Lingling's energetic, high-decibel voice came through the receiver:
"Qiuqiu! Qiuqiu! Quick, check Weibo! Quick, check Su Yu's Weibo! Something terrible has happened! Something catastrophic!"

Upon hearing that the news was about her idol, Su Yu, Qiu Qiu immediately asked anxiously, "What happened to Su Yu?! What happened to her?!"

"She's going to hold a giveaway!" Lingling's voice was filled with ecstasy. "Su Yu is giving away two fans, a boy and a girl, who will go to Paris with her next month to celebrate her birthday! All expenses paid for airfare and hotel! Plus special custom-made gifts! Oh my god! What an amazing idol! If I were to be chosen, I... I would faint on the spot!"

"Spend her birthday with me?!"

Qiuqiu exclaimed in surprise, forgetting even that she was in a "dangerous situation," her whole body trembling slightly with excitement.

Hearing their conversation, Tang Song stopped fidgeting.

Su Yu...is there a prize draw for her birthday? And a trip to Paris?

Just then, a crisp system notification sounded in my ear.

"Ding! You have triggered the character interaction quest [The Queen's Birthday Invitation]. Please go to the [Quest Center] to check it out."
