“Little fool, what are you talking about? How could you die?”
Su Jiu intently stared at him. “Daddy, if I die, will you miss me?”
“…” Su Shengjing gulped.
He seriously said, “No, I’ll protect you. I won’t let anything happen to you. Also, if something bad really happened to you, I wouldn’t want to live anymore. People end up in the underworld after they die. It’s a very dark place. How could I bear to let you go there alone?”
He would be there for her.
Staring into Su Jiu’s eyes, he continued, “So, you mustn’t die, Little Jiu. If you die, I’ll die too. You must remain well, understand?”
She’s still young. She might not understand how important she is to me.
This adorable little girl has become my pillar of support and source of motivation. If I lose her, I’ll collapse.
“Okay!” Su Jiu snuggled in his arms and sobbed.
With such a father, I don’t want to die.
No matter what the outcome is, I have to cherish the present and think of a way to avoid my demise!

The second day after they returned home, Su Shengjing took the DNA test report and Su Jiu to the police station to register her.
Once she was registered, he could enroll her into a kindergarten.
In the end, Su Shengjing decided to enroll her in the international bilingual kindergarten so that she could receive the best pre-school education. Although many children in that school belonged to extraordinary families, if they dared to bully his daughter, he would not let any of them off the hook.
The kindergarten was not far from their apartment and was quite decent in all aspects. Even though the tuition fees were very high, costing tens of thousands of dollars every month, Su Shengjing made up his mind to enroll Su Jiu there.
After all, his daughter deserved the best!
Su Shengjing had thought that it would be very difficult to enroll in this kindergarten. Unexpectedly, the principal and the teachers were Little Jiu’s fans. They liked her very much. As soon as they saw her, they couldn’t stop grinning from ear to ear. They kept calling her endearing names, wishing that they could bring her home and raise her by themselves.
Little Jiu lived up to their expectations as well. She cutely greeted the principal and the other teachers with a sweet smile on her face, her cuteness instantly melting their hearts.
The principal unhesitatingly approved Su Shengjing’s application to enroll Su Jiu into the kindergarten. She felt bad for Su Jiu as the latter had grown up in an orphanage, where she might have suffered from the poorer living conditions. Therefore, the principal gave Su Jiu special treatment. She reduced more than half of Su Jiu’s tuition fees and told Su Shengjing to save the money to raise Su Jiu well.
Su Shengjing was speechless.
Not only can Little Jiu help me earn money, but she can also help me save it. I love it!
When he left the kindergarten, the principal and the teachers gave him a lot of snacks and fruits. He had no choice but to accept them as they said that this all was a greeting gift. Then, they happily sent him and Su Jiu to the entrance.
A cutie like Su Jiu was now a student at their kindergarten. If word got out, the teachers in other schools would be jealous of these teachers and the principal.
Su Shengjing held Su Jiu’s hand as they walked on the streets. He lowered her yellow cap a little, concealing the upper half of her face so that no one would recognize her.
A shopping mall lay just ahead of them. Thinking of something, Su Shengjing lowered his head and said to Su Jiu, “Darling, you’re going to attend kindergarten soon. I’ll buy a new bag for you, okay?”
Su Jiu obediently nodded. “Okay.”
As she spoke, she suddenly saw a security guard in front of a primary school chasing out a mother and her son. “The principal said that he won’t accept your son. It’s useless even if you kneel and beg him. Hurry up and leave!”
