After filming a scene, Su Shengjing came out to look for the two children. When he saw Su Jiu and the brat standing under the ginkgo tree with grave expressions on their faces, he hurriedly walked over to them and patted Su Jiu’s head. “What’s wrong, Baby? The wind is so strong outside. Aren’t you cold standing here?”
Su Jiu looked up and said to him, “Daddy, Big Brother called Auntie Song several times, but no one picked up. We are a little worried about Auntie.”
Huh?
“Maybe she had something urgent to do?” Su Shengjing was surprised.
Rong Si shook his head. “No, Mom won’t ignore my calls.”
Su Shengjing thought about it and felt that it made sense. If it were his child outside, he would definitely want to contact her at all times. Why would he not pick up the phone?
This is very strange.
Just as he was thinking about this, another gust of cold wind blew over. Su Shengjing shivered and hurriedly carried Su Jiu, wrapping her in his coat. Then, he lowered his head and said to Rong Si, “Let’s talk inside. It’s too cold here. If you catch a cold, how am I going to answer your mother?”
Rong Si pursed his lips and turned to follow Su Shengjing. He felt much warmer after returning to the set, but Rong Si’s hand that was holding the phone was still cold and stiff. He was still feeling uneasy.
If Mom was fine, she should have called back.
However, even now, there has been no response from the phone.
After another five minutes, Su Shengjing’s phone finally rang.
Rong Si immediately picked up the phone. Sheng Tianci’s anxious voice rang from the other end. “Hello? Shengjing? Something happened here, you…”
Did something really happen?
Rong Si’s heart jumped into his throat, and he immediately asked, “What happened?”
Sheng Tianci hadn’t expected the kid to pick up the call. He paused for a moment and immediately changed his tone. “It’s nothing. Let Su Shengjing take the phone. I have something to tell him.”
Rong Si did not pass the phone to Su Shengjing and stubbornly asked, “Did something happen to my mother?”
Upon hearing this, Su Jiu immediately pricked up her ears and nervously waited for the next sentence.
“No, don’t think too much. Something happened at my company, and I need to talk to your Uncle Su. Kid, give him the phone.”
“What about my mother?” Rong Si asked. His tone had a hint of anxiety and panic that usually did not appear.
“Oh, I saw your mother just now. She’s fine. There was a customer who had ordered takeout, but the delivery guy never came. So she went to deliver it herself. That’s why she didn’t answer your call.” Sheng Tianci found an excuse.
“Then let her take it now.”
“I’m afraid not now. She went out again just now. Be good and pass the phone to Uncle Su.” Sheng Tianci pretended to be calm, even though he was feeling guilty inside.
Rong Si’s instincts told him that something must have happened to his mother, and it was not a good thing. However, Sheng Tianci was unwilling to tell him, so he could only return the phone to Su Shengjing.
Su Shengjing took the phone and put it to his ear to answer the call. Rong Si did not know what Sheng Tianci had told him, but Su Shengjing’s brows furrowed. He said, “How did this happen? Alright, I understand.”
After he hung up the phone, Su Jiu immediately looked up and asked, “Daddy, what did Uncle Sheng say?”
“Nothing much. He just said that there was a problem with his company and asked me how to solve it. You guys are still young and don’t know much about running a company, so you don’t have to worry about it,” Su Shengjing said. He did not want the two children to ask further, so he changed the topic and said, “I’ve finished filming for today. Let’s go back to the hotel. Do you want to have supper? I’ll bring you to get some.”
