The little girl spoke, and Su Shengjing naturally did as he was told. His eyes became full of affection as he responded to her, “Alright, Daddy will eat.”
He opened the box of food for the little girl and passed the spoon to her. “Do you want Daddy to feed you?”
Su Jiu took the spoon and shook her head. “No need! Daddy, I’m already big. I can eat by myself.”
Su Shengjing suddenly laughed. She’s only four years old, yet she’s already calling herself a big child. Does she have some misunderstanding about big children?
Su Shengjing hoped that Su Jiu would not grow up too quickly. If only she could stay as young as she is now. If that were the case, he could always pamper her and listen to her call him “Daddy” in her baby voice; they would be the most important people to each other forever.
How wonderful!
If she grows up, she would leave me to go to another man’s side. The thought of that made Su Shengjing feel indescribably miserable.
An Yuan watched the little girl pick up a spoon and eat by herself. Su Jiu’s cheeks were puffed up as she ate. It looked like she was really enjoying the food.
An Yuan also opened a box lunch to eat. Right now, she was sitting beside Su Shengjing, with only a child sitting between them. Although the two of them did not speak, there seemed to be a subtle atmosphere spreading between them.
An Yuan felt a little uneasy. Su Shengjing felt the same. Fortunately, the little girl was by his side. He could pretend that he did not mind An Yuan by shifting his gaze onto the little girl.
As a chatterbox, Sheng Tianci had wanted to say something. However, he keenly sensed the subtle change and deliberately remained silent. After the little girl finished eating, he even secretly asked her if she wanted to buy something for Su Shengjing.
The little girl readily agreed.
After leaving the set with Sheng Tianci, Su Jiu suddenly realized it. Did Uncle Sheng take me away to create a chance for Daddy and An Yuan to be alone?
She turned around and saw that her father and An Yuan were the only ones left in the rest area. They seemed to be talking about something.
Sheng Tianci reached out to touch her little head and teased her. “Little Jiu, Uncle is asking you: If your father really finds a stepmother for you, will you accept her?”
Su Jiu nodded without thinking. “Yes! If Daddy remains single forever, he will be very pitiful!”
Sheng Tianci was speechless.
Little girl, you even know about being single?
How did such a stupid guy like Su Shengjing give birth to such a cute and smart daughter?
He asked again, “What kind of stepmother do you want your father to find for you?”
“First, she must like Daddy and treat Daddy well!” The little girl said in all seriousness, “Then, she must treat me well. She can’t be as bad as Snow White’s stepmother!”
Sheng Tianci immediately patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry! If your father finds you such a bad stepmother, I will be the first to object. I will never let anyone bully you, Little Jiu!”
The little girl sweetly smiled at him. “Uncle, you’re so nice.”
“Do you like Uncle?”
“Yes.”
“Do you like Uncle more or Daddy more?”
The little girl replied without hesitation, “Of course, it’s Daddy! Daddy is Little Jiu’s favorite person!”
Sheng Tianci was speechless.
Little girl, Uncle treats you so well. Can’t you at least lie to me?

Over at the rest area, An Yuan cleared her throat. She casually found a topic to talk about in order to ease the uncomfortable atmosphere. “The more I look at Little Jiu, the cuter she becomes.”
Su Shengjing smiled. “Yes, she’s indeed a very cute little girl. It’s my honor to be her father.”
