Also, Rong Si had been anticipating Su Jiu’s arrival. When she suddenly appeared in front of him, he was caught off guard. Then, he felt an indescribable joy. That feeling was better than being the top scorer in the district.
Su Jiu pulled down her mask and smiled at him. “Big Brother, you’re too awesome!”
If she hadn’t been someone he was very familiar with, he probably wouldn’t have been able to recognize her just from a silhouette.
It seemed that even though they had separated, her child still remembered her. Su Jiu’s heart warmed.
Rong Si looked at her sweet smile as usual, and his gaze deepened.
The little girl in front of him was wearing a white dress. Her hair was tied into a bun, and a strawberry hair clip bound her hair. Her skin was fair and tender, and a hint of pink hung on her cheeks. Her eyes were big and clear, and her eyelashes were long and delicate. She was exquisite and beautiful like a doll.
She’s still so cute.
“Big Brother, as a reward for recognizing me, I’ll give you a gift!” Su Jiu mysteriously said. Then, she put on her mask again and ran away under his puzzled gaze.
When she returned, she had two boxes of strawberries in her hands. “Big Brother, this is for you.”
Rong Si’s eyes flickered.?Had she seen me pause at the strawberries?
“Thank you!” Rong Si did not refuse her gift and reached out to receive it.
At that moment, he saw Su Shengjing following them. Seeing that Su Shengjing was looking at him with a displeased expression, Rong Si immediately knew what he was thinking.
Su Shengjing still did not seem to like him. It was obvious that this was because of Little Jiu.
However, Rong Si did not intend to back down. No matter who or what they thought, he did not want to lose Little Jiu as a friend.
And he wasn’t just friends with her.
When he grew up, he would marry her if she agreed to it.
Rong Si’s expression did not change as he politely greeted, “Hello, Uncle.”
“Mm,” Su Shengjing indifferently replied.
Although this brat had saved Little Jiu before, he was also one of the brats who wanted to woo her. Su Shengjing could not accept this.
When Su Jiu was young, he did not need to be on guard against anything. Now that she had grown up, he had to stay vigilant.
Su Jiu turned around and glanced at Su Shengjing. She pursed her lips and said, “Daddy, you have to treat Big Brother better. Don’t be mean to him.”
Su Shengjing was stunned.
How was I mean to the kid? How?
Wasn’t I just being neutral?
Su Shengjing felt wronged. His heart was broken. He had raised his daughter so painstakingly all these years, and yet…?Am I not allowed to help her?
Su Shengjing felt wronged and secretly glared at Rong Si.
Rong Si pretended not to see it. Rather, because he had a strong desire to live, he said, “Uncle treats me quite well. He didn’t scold me.”
He had read on the Internet that if he met a girl he liked and wanted to marry her, not only would he have to get her to like him, but he also had to get her family to like him, especially her parents.
Rong Si didn’t know how to please others, nor did he want to. However, he wanted Little Jiu’s father to change his opinion of him and not hate him.
Su Shengjing raised his eyebrows.?This kid is quite smart.
Su Jiu looked at him again and said to Rong Si, suppressing her laughter, “Big Brother, can I go to your house? I really miss Auntie Song’s cooking.”
Rong Si looked at her and nodded. “Of course you can. I’m just afraid… you won’t like it.”
As he spoke, his long eyelashes drooped down as if he was slightly embarrassed.
Compared to her family, his family was very poor..
