Chapter 65: Pretty Little Face

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Su Shengjing saw his daughter grin at him, he felt very guilty. He patted her little head and apologized. “I’m sorry. It’s my fault for not protecting you well.”

“Your dad is really too much!” Sheng Tianci was also furious. Don’t people say that grandparents have innate connections with their grandchildren?

Unexpectedly, not only did that old man feel zero affection for Little Jiu, but he also wanted to strangle her. He was still as crazy as before.

Sheng Tianci glanced at Su Jiu and carefully said, “Little Jiu, I’m sorry too. Can you not be angry with me?”

If the little girl is no longer willing to talk to me because of this, I’ll be very upset.

Su Jiu smiled at him. “Uncle, I’m not angry at you, and I won’t get angry at you either.”

Her words touched Sheng Tianchi. You indeed live up to your nickname as the little angel!

The two men sent Su Jiu back to the old city area. When they walked into the alley, Su Jiu immediately spotted a little boy downstairs. It seemed like he was waiting for someone.

The little villain!

Although Rong Si was just wearing a simple white T-shirt and blue pants, he looked different from the children living nearby. His face was pale, yet looked extremely exquisite. The more Su Jiu looked at him, the more handsome he became.

Su Jiu felt her mood instantly improve. All the unhappiness from today seemed to vanish at the sight of this good-looking face. An affectionate grin made its way to her face.

She let go of Su Shengjing’s hand and happily skipped over to Rong Si. “Big Brother!”

Rong Si immediately looked up and saw the little girl running toward him. He quickly hid the item in his hand behind his back.

Su Jiu noticed it, but pretended to be unaware. She curiously asked, “Big Brother, why are you here?”

With an awkward expression, Rong Si softly said, “Waiting for you.”

“Waiting for me?” Su Jiu was surprised.

“Yeah! This is for you.” He brought his hands from behind his back and handed her a packet of lollipops. While his gaze flitted around, he added, “My mother asked me to buy them.”

This handsome little villain gave me a gift. It means he doesn’t despise me! Looks like the kindness I’ve shown him is quite effective. Also, he probably bought the candy himself, even though he insists that his mother asked him.

Do all guys have such pride?

“Thank you, Big Brother. I like it a lot!” Su Jiu happily accepted the candy and opened the packaging. “Big Brother, you should eat it too. What flavor do you like? I’ll get some for you.”

Rong Si was, after all, a child. Naturally, he liked sweets. Glazing at her bright smile, he pondered before mumbling, “Strawberry flavor.”

This flavor was sweet, just like her smile.

Su Jiu picked a few strawberry-flavored sweets for him. “Here, these are for you.”

Rong Si still felt a little awkward, so Su Jiu directly stuffed all the candies into his hands.

Su Shengjing walked over. When he saw that the boy was alone, he asked, “Where’s your mother? Is she feeling better? When can she be discharged?”

Sheng Tianci also asked, “Yeah! How is she?”

“Mom’s surgery has just finished. The doctor said that she can be discharged in another week.”

Sheng Tianci heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”

At this moment, a joyful voice rang out. “Little Jiu!”

Su Jiu was at a loss for words.

No way! That energetic little devil has come to look for me again!

She turned around and saw Sheng Zhiyan. He excitedly ran toward her as the chauffeur followed behind him with a look of exasperation. “Young Master, slow down.”
