Then, Song Wanqiu sat down beside Rong Si and watched the drama with him.
When she saw the touching parts, her eyes turned red. She could not help but say, "Little Jiu's acting is really good. The production team found the right person."
Su Jiu acted so well that it seemed she were the character itself!
Rong Si grunted, his eyes still fixed on the television.
Little Jiu was very talented. He had never doubted that. Although she was very young, he felt that she was more talented than many adults.
When the first episode ended, Song Wanqiu yearned for more. She wished she could watch the next episode immediately. However, a long advertisement came between the episodes, so she could only anxiously wait.
At this moment, all she could think about was how Little Jiu was so amazing. If only she had a daughter like that. Although Ah Si was a good son, she could not help but want a daughter.
Unfortunately, Little Jiu was someone else's daughter.
Song Wanqiu sighed in her heart and turned to look at the little guy beside her. She saw that he was frowning with a solemn expression as if he were thinking about a difficult problem. He looked like a little adult. She asked in amusement, "Ah Si, what are you thinking about?"
Rong Si came back to his senses and averted his gaze. He guiltily said, "Nothing."
Song Wanqiu caressed his head and gently smiled. "I raised you on my own. Do you think I can't tell when you're thinking about something? Tell me, what are you thinking about? If you're troubled, perhaps I can give you some advice?"
Rong Si pursed his lips. After hesitating for a few seconds, he said, "Little Jiu will become popular."
He didn't look straight at Song Wanqiu's face. Instead, he lowered his eyes, seemingly unhappy.
Huh?
Song Wanqiu was puzzled. "Isn't it a good thing if she becomes popular? That way, she can earn a lot of money and live a good life. As her friend, you should be happy for her."
Rong Si gloomily said, "But I'm a little unhappy."
"Why?"
"Once Little Jiu becomes popular, many people will like her and ask her to act in their shows."
Song Wanqiu suddenly realized what he meant. "I understand. Do you think she'll be very busy and won't have time to play with you?"
Before Little Jiu and her father had accepted advertisements and television dramas, they would visit Rong Si and Song Wanqiu every few days. However, the number of times they visited recently had indeed decreased.
Rong Si only had one good friend, Little Jiu, so it was normal for him to feel disappointed. Moreover, Song Wanqiu got off work late, leaving him home alone often. It was natural that he would feel lonely.
Rong Si didn't deny it. Instead, he nodded and confirmed Song Wanqiu's thoughts.
Ever since he had moved here, since he had started going to school, he had been working hard to learn and improve himself. Not only did he want to find a good job in the future and earn a lot of money, but he also wanted to be worthy to play with Little Jiu.
Initially, he felt that he and Little Jiu were very close since they lived just across from each other. However, her popularity was rising, and more people were starting to like her. It was obvious that more boys would be chasing after her in the future.
All of those boys were outstanding. At least, they weren't like him, who used to live in a dilapidated house and rummage through smelly trash bins…
So, if more people surrounded Little Jiu, what could he do?
Would he still have a chance to stay with her?
Would he lose her as a good friend?
