No other rides go from Suzhou to Qingdao, but you can transfer to other cities first, for example Jinan and then to Qingdao. In this case, you can find noon/afternoon rides but surely, this option takes longer time as you need extra time for transfer in Jinan.

Or you may consider to go to Shanghai Hongqiao station by rail and then change to a flight to Qingdao.
