Sigh! The daughter / worked so hard to raise is picking out cookies for someone else. If she hadn’t made a box for me, I wouldn’t have brought her here.
Su Jiu turned to look at him. Seeing that her father had taken all the luggage, she could not help but say, “Daddy, why don’t I help you take some? It’s too heavy for you.”
However, Su Shengjing did not let her carry any of the luggage. He even confidently said, “No need! This is an adult’s matter. Little kids shouldn’t get involved in it.”
“I’m no longer a kid!”
“In my eyes, you’re just a little kid,” Su Shengjing said as he lowered his head to look at her unconvinced little face. He even freed a hand to stroke her hair, just like he had when she was young.
Why is my daughter so cute?
Walking out of the airport hall, Su Jiu breathed in the fresh air of the southern city, then took out her phone to call Rong Si.
At this moment, in his apartment, Rong Si was planning to go to the Lin Group with Song Wanqiu. Two days had passed since his meeting with CEO Lin, but there had been no news from them. It seemed like they didn’t want to agree to his request. Or were they too confident that he would accept their conditions and were waiting for him to come back?
It was unfortunate that he had to visit them, but he could not accept their conditions.
Just as he was about to leave, his phone rang. When he took it out, he saw that the call was from Little
Jiu.
Startled, Rong Si picked up the phone. “Hello?”
“Hello? Big Brother!” Su Jiu’s cheerful voice came from the other end. “What are you doing?”
“I’m…” Rong Si glanced at Song Wanqiu. “At home.”
“Really? I’ll go look for you now!”
Rong Si was stunned. Look for me?
Could it be that she has already arrived in the city? But didn’t she say that she would come next week?
Su Jiu thought that he did not understand and smiled. “I’m already at the airport. You didn’t expect it, right? I even brought you a gift!”
It seemed that his plan to go to the Lin Group could only be temporarily put on hold.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you.”
After her son hung up the phone, Song Wanqiu asked in surprise, “Why is Little Jiu here?”
“She said she was coming to find me and wanted to choose a school with me.” Rong Si got a little worried. The matter of his grades hadn’t been settled yet, and if she suddenly visited him, it was very likely that he wouldn’t be able to hide the matter.
However, if he really couldn’t hide it anymore, he could only tell her and hope that she wouldn’t be angry with him.
Song Wanqiu knew what he was worried about. She patted his shoulder and said, “It’s okay. Little Jiu is a reasonable and good girl. She won’t be angry at you because of this. Don’t worry.”

Su Jiu was quite lucky. The moment she left the airport, she managed to hail a taxi. Then, she headed straight for Rong Si’s apartment. After more than an hour, she excitedly rang the doorbell.
Soon, the door opened. Upon seeing Rong Si, Su Jiu happily said, “Big Brother, did I scare you by suddenly coming over?”
Rong Si moved to the side to let her in. The corners of his lips curled up a little. “No!”
After Su Jiu entered the room, she first greeted Song Wanqiu. Then, she took the box of biscuits from her father’s hands and handed it to Rong Si. “Big Brother, this is a gift for you and Auntie. I picked them myself. I hope you like it!”
Su Shengjing sourly added, “This girl was cooped up in the dessert shop yesterday for this.”
Song Wanqiu smiled. “Really? Little Jiu, you’re so considerate. But you and your father came too suddenly. Ah Si and I didn’t have time to prepare anything for you.”
