Su Jiu nodded. “Okay, teach me!”
When Su Shengjing came out of the chicken after cooking dinner, he saw the two children seriously working together.
A phrase suddenly popped into his head. Childhood playmates!
It’s really… an eyesore!
I’ll only allow this little rascal to stay in my house when he’s still a little boy. After he grows up, I will never let him enter the house so easily and spend time alone with my daughter.
He shouldn’t even think about it!
Despite those thoughts, Su Shengjing tolerated it for the time being. He placed the dishes on the table and called the two children over to eat.
Rong Si naturally sat beside Su Jiu and quietly ate.
When Su Jiu saw that Rong Si was only eating vegetables and not a single piece of meat, she could not stand it anymore. She picked up a piece of pork rib and placed it in his bowl. “Big Brother, try this. The pork ribs my father cooks are really delicious.”
Rong Si looked at her. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome!” Su Jiu smiled cutely.
Su Shengjing sat at the side and stared at the two children. Suddenly, he felt like he was the third wheel.
He enviously said, “Darling, why are you only caring about him? Aren’t you going to care about me at all?”
Su Jiu could sense Su Shengjing’s obvious jealousy. She was not expecting her father to be jealous of the little villain. However, she quickly picked up a piece of pork rib and placed it in Su Shengjing’s bowl, then she sweetly said, “Daddy, eat up!”
“That’s more like it,” Su Shengjing said as he secretly glared at Rong Si.
The little villain calmly ate his food. Anyone else would not be willing to come anymore after being resented like that. However, Rong Si would never back down when it came to Little Jiu.
She was his only friend. No matter what, he had to hold on to her and never let go.
Soon after dinner, Song Wanqiu came home from work.
She came over to pick up Rong Si and embarrassedly said to Su Shengjing, “I’m really sorry. My careless child brought you trouble again. I’ll reprimand him when we get back.”
Naturally, Su Shengjing was not bothered by such a minor issue. Rong Si had only stayed for dinner after all. It was no big deal. He dismissively waved his hand. “It’s fine. We don’t need to be so polite with each other.”
“Thank you! Little Jiu, you too!” Song Wanqiu felt bad. After bringing Rong Si home, she closed the door and looked at him. “Did you really forget to bring your keys?”
This little boy’s memory was extraordinarily good. He could even memorize hundreds of digits of pi. How could he forget such a minor matter?
As expected, Rong Si shook his head. “No.”
No?
Song Wanqiu was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and burst into laughter. “I know! You wanted to see Little Jiu, right?”
Little Jiu and her father seemed to be quite busy these few days. It had been a few days since she had seen them. Song Wanqiu had not expected her son to come up with such a plan to meet Su Jiu. She was at a loss for words.
Song Wanqiu flicked his forehead. “I understand how you feel, but you still lied, okay? Don’t do this again. If you really like Little Jiu and treat her as your best friend, you can’t lie to her. If she finds out, she might get angry.”
Rong Si lowered his gaze and seriously said, “I won’t lie to her anymore.”
Song Wanqiu gently smiled and patted his head. “That’s more like it. Girls like honest boys who don’t lie. You have to be careful in the future. Alright, go and do your homework now.”
Rong Si nodded and walked into his room with his bag.
He sat down at the desk and took out a “strawberry” from his bag. Su Jiu had personally made it and given it to him as an exchange for his gift.
Although she did not do a good job, he still liked it a lot.
