Su Jiu shook Su Shengjing’s arm and said, “Daddy, put me down.”
“What for?”
“It’s snowing! We have to build snowmen and have a snowball fight!”
A hint of a smile appeared in Su Shengjing’s eyes. He dotingly said, “Okay.”
He placed the little girl down on the ground. Then, he saw her pulling the brat back as she exclaimed, “Big Brother, let’s play together!”
Rong Si looked at her bright and sweet smile and was dazed.
To be honest, he didn’t like winter, especially when it snowed. In the past, he and his mother often suffered in the cold, but there was nothing they could do about it. His mother could only hold him in her arms and warm him with her body heat. However, she used to endure the cold alone with her already deteriorating health.
But now, with Little Jiu by his side, Rong Si suddenly felt that winter wasn’t all that bad.
Moreover, he had never built a snowman with other children before. It should be fun, right?
The two kids started to build snowmen just like that. The snow was still thin, and piling it up wasn’t easy. However, perhaps it was because of the novelty of building snowmen or because she was building snowmen with the little villain, Su Jiu found it very interesting.
Su Shengjing helplessly watched as her face turned red from the cold, but she was smiling happily. He could only stand by her side and help her gather the snow.
About half an hour later, a snowman took shape. It was far from perfect, but was still recognizable. The little villain picked up two branches and concentrated on placing them into the snowman. Su Jiu suddenly picked up a handful of snow from the ground and threw it at him.
Rong Si was caught off guard as the snow exploded on his chest. After a moment of surprise, he smiled, picked up a handful of snow, and threw it back at Su Jiu.
The snowball hit Su Jiu, and she started giggling.
Seeing her smile happily, Su Shengjing couldn’t help but smile as well. However, he pretended to be unhappy and glared at Rong Si. “You brat, you dare hit my daughter? I think you’re asking for a beating!”
The little villain stood still and looked straight into his eyes. He provocatively raised his eyebrows, and there was a faint smile on his lips.
As his fan, Su Jiu felt extremely gratified.
The little villain is now like a normal little child, knowing how to play, laugh, and be happy. This is just too great. Hopefully, he can continue on this path, and not become evil.
That other path is a dead-end!
In the end, Su Jiu got tired from playing and collapsed on the snow. She spread her arms out, enjoying the feeling of the snow falling on her face.
Rong Si lay down beside her, enjoying this beautiful moment.
Su Jiu looked at the sky above. It was a cloudy day, but there seemed to be a hint of sunlight through the gaps between the clouds. She closed her eyes and smiled. “Brother, I really hope that Daddy can become a big star and earn a lot of money.
“I also hope that you can live happily and safely.”
Huh?
What does she mean by living safely?
Rong Si looked at Su Jiu in confusion, but when he met her extremely serious gaze, he unexpectedly nodded. “Okay, I will.”

At night, Song Wanqiu returned home after finishing her work at the dessert shop. When she saw Rong Si sitting in her room and filling in an exercise book, she smiled and patted his head. “Were you studying? Have a rest.”
