As he met Su Jiu’s innocent gaze, Su Shengjing could not bring himself to lie even though he wanted to. He had no choice but to admit it. “You’ve seen him before. Didn’t someone bring you to a fierce old man’s place once? He’s that old man. Do you want to meet him?”
Su Jiu shook her head. “No!”
“Then we won’t meet him.”
Just then, Sheng Tianci casually glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that the black car was still following them. “D*mn! That old man is determined to see you. Why don’t you get out of the car? Honestly, I’m quite afraid of your father… I’m a coward.”
Su Shengjing turned his head and saw the luxurious car closely following them.
“Fine! Stop the car somewhere. I’ll meet him.”
After saying that, Su Shengjing lowered his head and looked at Su Jiu in his arms. “Darling, I’m going to bring you to meet that fierce old man. Are you afraid?”
Su Jiu grinned. “With you around, I’m not afraid!”
Su Shengjing smiled and carried her out of the car.
When the butler saw the two of them getting out of the car, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere in his car had eased up a lot. He hurriedly stopped the car by the side of the road, alighted, and respectfully opened the car door. “Young Master, Little Miss, please enter.”
Carrying Su Jiu, Su Shengjing entered the car.
Su Guobang was sitting by the car window. Dressed in a dark traditional suit, he held onto a walking stick. He sat upright and looked intimidating.
Su Guobang glanced at Su Shengjing, then looked at the little girl in his arms.
The little girl was scrutinizing him with a face full of curiosity. Her big eyes were crystal clear and uncorrupted, while her little face was chubby. The more Su Guobang looked at her, the cuter he found her.
This is strange. Why didn’t I find her so cute before? I must’ve been crazy back then.
Just as he thought about it, he saw the little girl cower in Su Shengjing’s arms and mumble, “Daddy, he’s so fierce.”
Su Guobang wanted to protest and say that he was not fierce, at least not now.
Su Shengjing stroked Su Jiu’s hair, hinting that she did not need to be afraid. Then, he looked at Su Guobang and got straight to the point. “Were you behind the Weibo clean-up?”
“What Weibo?” Su Guobang pretended to not understand.
Su Shengjing said, “I won’t thank you.”
“What did you say?!” Su Guobang instantly became enraged. “If I hadn’t helped you, do you think you could’ve resolved it? Look at how badly you were criticized. You might not find it embarrassing, but I do!”
Su Shengjing sarcastically said, “What’s not embarrassing to you? Since I’ve entered the entertainment industry, I’m prepared to face those nasty comments. After all, I’m not money. It’s impossible for everyone to like me.”
“Are you saying that I’m a busybody?!” Su Guobang was so furious that his face turned red. “Fine, no matter how harshly you get scolded in the future, I won’t care about you anymore!”
The atmosphere in the car became hostile and tense. The butler, who was driving the car with trepidation, did not even dare to breathe loudly.
No way! Old Master just wanted to have a meal with his son and granddaughter, but things turned out this way.
Old Master, can’t you just calm down?
Are you planning to die alone instead of enjoying a life with your son and granddaughter?
Su Guobang was seething with anger. Suddenly, he realized that the little girl was timidly looking at him. Her eyes were red as she pouted. It looked like she was on the brink of tears.
His anger instantly dissipated by a lot.
She’s so lively and cheerful in the show, yet so terrified in front of me. Is it my fault?
