She reached out and picked up the phone from the bedside table.?It’s Dad!
Su Jiu immediately got out of bed and picked up the phone. “Hello? Daddy!”
Su Shengjing had just finished a day of work. Not long after he returned home, he saw that his daughter was not at home. His heart had felt empty, and he could not help but call her.
It was the first time she had left home to go so far away, and he missed her and worried for her. Hearing her sweet voice made him feel better.
Su Shengjing concernedly asked, “Baby, how was the concert today? Daddy will be done with work in the next two days. When are you coming back?”
The earlier question wasn’t the point. The latter was.
Su Jiu was speechless.
Is Daddy finished so soon?
She had planned to stay here a few more days. If she had time, she wanted to stop by the little villain’s place to see where he lived now.
Su Jiu tentatively said, “Daddy, I rarely get a chance to fly out. I want to stay here for a few more days. I don’t want to go back so soon.”
“How long are you planning on staying? If you want to go on vacation, Daddy can take you there sometime. Daddy’s worried about you being out there alone.”
“Daddy, I’m not a kid anymore. I can take care of myself. Don’t worry.”
Su Shengjing’s tone was serious. “No, no matter how old you are, you’re still a child in my eyes. You’re not allowed to stay there for so long. You have to come back in two days. Otherwise, Daddy will go look for you.”
Doesn’t she know that overseas is not as safe as home? What if she falls in danger?
Who would help her?
As long as he imagined his daughter’s helpless appearance, Su Shengjing could not stand it. He wished he could bring her back immediately and make her stay under his watch. Only then would he be at ease.
Su Shengjing asked again, “Baby, where are you staying now? Is it a hotel?”
“It’s a hotel. A five-star hotel. There’s a lot of security, and I’ve had no issues so far.”
“No issues? In the end, you’re still a young girl with little social experience. There are many problems with hotels overseas. So what if there are security guards? Some security guards will still collude with bad people to target silly girls like you.”
He had seen a lot of news about foreign hotels colluding with criminals to attack hotel guests. Many of those hotels were five-star hotels, so she couldn’t think that it was enough just to stay in a five-star hotel!
Su Jiu said helplessly, “Daddy, why do you make it sound so scary? I’m really fine. Besides, I’m not that stupid. Besides, there’s the little—”
She was about to say “little villain” before suddenly realizing that something was wrong and hurriedly changed her words. “… Little Yan and Young Master Li are here. It’s fine.”
“That’s not safe either! Li Mohan is focused on Song Xinyan. Why would he care about you? Who asked my daughter to be so beautiful and cute? I can’t help but worry!” Su Shengjing said strongly. “By the way, Baby, which hotel are you staying in now? Let me see if you’re safe.”
Su Jiu felt even more helpless. It seemed that her father would not be at ease until she showed him, so she turned on the phone camera.
She showed him the room’s lavish oil painting decorations, the big European-style bed, and the balcony with its view of the starry sky. “There, Daddy. Do you see it? Not bad, huh?”
The first thing Su Shengjing saw was his daughter. After exclaiming that his daughter was really beautiful and cute, he started to size up the room.
