When they left the kindergarten, Sheng Tianci was leaning against the car, waiting for them.
When he saw Su Jiu, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes. He shouted, “Little Jiu, did you miss Uncle?”
Before he could finish, Su Shengjing rolled his eyes at him. “Don’t flirt with my daughter.”
“What the f*ck! You call this flirting? I think you haven’t seen real flirting before! It’s all because I like Little Jiu, okay? If I didn’t want to see the little girl, do you think I would’ve come to pick up this brat?” Sheng Tianci indignantly said. He turned around and looked at Sheng Zhiyan with disdain.
Sheng Zhiyan was speechless.
It was as if Sheng Tianci had just shot him while he was already down!
What did he do wrong to be despised so much?
Sheng Zhiyan felt indignant and glared at Sheng TIanci. “Uncle, you’re so mean! I’m going to ignore you. I don’t want you to pick me up anymore. I’ll get the chauffeur to pick me up instead. Hmph!”
As he said that, he saw Little Jiu looking at him with her big round eyes. He instantly felt embarrassed, and his little face flushed. He hurriedly explained, “Little Jiu, I… I’m not really throwing a tantrum. I don’t like to be angry. Don’t misunderstand! I’m actually a good man!”
“Pfft!” Sheng Tianci almost burst out laughing. He mercilessly teased his nephew, “You think you’re a man? Kid, you haven’t even grown a beard yet. Aren’t you ashamed?”
Sheng Zhiyan confidently said, “I’m not ashamed at all! Anyway, I’ll definitely be a good man when I grow up!”
“Pfft, even at this age, all you know how to do is flirt with girls. You might become a playboy in the future.”
Sheng Zhiyan raised his chin and shot back at him. “Grandpa and Grandma said that you’re a playboy, Uncle. They said that you idle around and don’t do your job properly. You’re useless because you’re so old, yet you don’t even have a girlfriend. Grandpa and Grandma told me not to learn from you and to be a successful person!”
Sheng Tianci was speechless.
What’s going on? Do my parents always say that to their grandchildren?
Can’t they leave me some dignity? So what if I don’t have a girlfriend? Do I have to be mocked by everyone?
Seeing that his face had turned black, Su Shengjing earnestly patted his shoulder. “It’s alright. Just walk your own path. You’ll leave others no choice but to give in. Tsk, at the end of the day, I’m still the best. I don’t need to get married to have a daughter. I’m really lucky.”
Sheng Tianci was speechless.
Is he trying to comfort me?
Why do I feel like I want to hit someone?
Sheng Tianci flung Su Shengjing’s hand away and said through gritted teeth, “Su Shengjing, where’s your decency?”
He looked at Little Jiu and pitifully complained, “Little Jiu, your father is bullying me. You’re not going to scold him for his bad behavior?”
The little girl immediately retorted, “Uncle, you can’t say that Daddy is bad. Daddy is the best in the world!”
She looked at him fiercely as if she were saying, “Don’t talk about my father.”
Su Shengjing’s smile widened.
It was usually him trying to protect Su Jiu, but now, she was the one speaking up for him. His heart was filled with joy.
The expression on Sheng Tianci’s face became even more despairing. He felt that he was alone and helpless. No one was on his side. He had thought that Little Jiu would at least say some nice words to comfort him, but he did not expect her to deal him another blow.
Sheng Tianci gave up struggling and said with a sad face, “Little Jiu, why are you also bullying Uncle? Uncle is too sad. I won’t be able to eat or sleep tonight. Don’t you care about me?”
