Li Mohan thought that girls liked candies and toys, so he negotiated with Su Jiu. “I’ll give you a few more pieces of chocolate.”
Su Jiu refused. “No.”
“What about toys?”
“No!”
“…”
Li Mohan had not expected this tactic to fail on her. When he remembered that Su Jiu seemed to have a very good relationship with her father and did not even want a godfather, an idea flashed across his mind. He continued, “Your father is a celebrity, right? He filmed a parent-child variety show, right?”
At the mention of Su Shengjing, Su Jiu immediately became alert. “So what if he is?”
“If you help me apologize, I’ll get him an advertisement. How about that?”
“Really?!” Su Jiu stared at Li Mohan in shock.
A look of disbelief hung on her face. She widened her eyes, looking even more adorable.
No! Other than Xinyan, I must not find any other girls cute!
Li Mohan tried to dispel the thought of how cute Su Jiu was from his mind. Coughing like an adult, he replied, “Of course.”
This is like striking the lottery! Su Jiu immediately agreed to him. “Okay, I’ll promise you. Don’t lie to me, okay?”
Li Mohan smirked. “Okay, I won’t lie to you.”
Just then, Song Xinyan returned from the kitchen.
Li Mohan shot Su Jiu a look. Su Jiu immediately understood and said to Song Xinyan, “Big Sister, can you let Big Brother watch cartoons with us?”
Song Xinyan glanced at Li Mohan and angrily said, “No!”
Su Jiu jumped down from the sofa and ran toward Song Xinyan. She whispered, “He told me just now that he’s sorry, but was just too embarrassed to apologize to you. That’s why he asked me to apologize on your behalf. Don’t be angry at him! If you remain angry, you won’t look pretty anymore!”
When Song Xinyan heard Su Jiu’s cute voice, her heart melted. She hugged Su Jiu and said, “Okay, I won’t be angry anymore.”
Little Jiu is so small! She feels so soft and chubby when I hug her. I don’t even want to let go anymore.
After hugging her beloved Little Jiu for a while, Song Xinyan raised her head and glanced at the nervous boy. “Li Mohan, I’m not angry anymore. However, you must not call me stupid again!”
Li Mohan was speechless.
She’s stupid to begin with. Why doesn’t she let others say it?
Even that little girl is smarter than her.
At that thought, he could not help but glance at Su Jiu again.
As he had wished, Li Mohan sat on the sofa. He accompanied Song Xinyan and watched the cartoons that he initially found “childish.”
While Song Xinyan was engrossed in the cartoon, Su Jiu softly reminded Li Mohan. “I’ve already apologized to her on your behalf. Remember what you promised me! Oh right, my father’s name is Su Shengjing.”
Li Mohan remained expressionless. “Got it.”
However, when he saw the little girl staring at him with her clear and innocent eyes, he could not help it anymore. He walked to the side, took out his phone from his pocket, and made a call in front of her. “Hello? It’s me.”
The person on the other end of the call was shocked and respectfully said, “Young Master? What is it?”
“I heard that the Li Corporation has just launched a new phone model. Do we need a spokesperson?”
“Yes, Young Master. Why are you asking this?”
Instead of answering the question, Li Mohan directly said, “There’s no need to look for one. Let Su Shengjing be the spokesperson.”
“Huh? This… Why? Although Su Shengjing is very popular, he previously…”
“It’s settled then.” With that, Li Mohan hung up.
Su Jiu looked at him in shock, unable to believe that he was just seven or eight years old. The way he gave those instructions was clearly no different from an adult.
Perhaps, this was the halo that most male leads automatically had.
