Song Wanqiu was taken aback.
Little Jiu actually gave him this! Is it a coincidence, or…
Rong Si blankly stared at the brand new violin lying in the box, unable to react.
He had been learning the violin since he was very young. It was his favorite instrument.
However, after he and his mother had been driven out of their house, Rong Cheng’s new wife had come to look for trouble with them. She had smashed the violin Rong Si had brought with him. Neither of the mother and son had time to stop her.
Song Wanqiu had been furious at that time and had angrily rushed forward. However, the two bodyguards behind the woman had ruthlessly pushed her to the ground, and she scraped her arm badly.
After that, Rong Si and his mother spent their days in that shabby residential area. Finding food was difficult for him, and finding time to practice the violin would have been near impossible.
And his beloved violin had been smashed, anyway.
Rong Si had never touched a violin since then.
He never thought that he would have a violin again.
Seeing him staring at the violin in a daze, Su Jiu knew that she had made the right choice. She asked in anticipation, “Big Brother, tell me quickly. Do you like the New Year’s gift I gave you?”
Su Jiu’s voice brought Rong Si back to his senses. He looked at her smiling eyes, and his throat bobbed. “Yes, I like it very much.”
His voice was a little low and slightly hoarse. His eyes also seemed to have turned red. He quickly lowered his head and pretended to continue watching the violin so that Su Jiu would not notice the change in his mood.
His answer made Su Jiu immensely happy. As the little villain’s fan, the joy and achievement she derived from his happiness were uncomparable!
Rong Si carefully picked up the violin and gently touched it, enjoying the familiar feeling. Then, he looked at Su Jiu and seriously said, “Little Jiu, thank you.”
Knowing that this violin must have been bought by Su Shengjing, he said to him as well, “Thank you, Uncle.”
“You’re welcome.” Although Su Shengjing said that, he was thinking: Look, this kid is finally saying something nice.
Rong Si usually did not speak. He was like an emotionless ice sculpture. It was no wonder people had called him mute previously. Su Shengjing himself had thought that Rong Si could not speak.
Song Wanqiu was filled with gratitude as she said to the pair, “Ah Si really likes playing the violin. He started learning it when he was very young. His violin broke a while back, and he wasn’t able to play it anymore. You guys giving him this violin today, this is the best New Year gift he has received, right, Ah Si?”
Rong Si immediately nodded. “Yes.”
However, he felt a little strange. Why did Little Jiu think of giving me a violin?
Song Wanqiu was equally curious. “Little Jiu, why did you give Big Brother a violin? How did you know that he likes to play it?”
“That’s because I saw a few photos on the cabinet in Big Brother’s room. One of them was Big Brother playing the violin on a stage. I just knew he liked it!” the little girl answered clearly.
Song Wanqiu was surprised by the little girl’s thoughtfulness. Her gaze became even gentler as she stroked the back of Rong Si’s head and said, “Ah Si, since Little Jiu gave you such a good gift, you have to show your gratitude. Why don’t you play a song for her?”
Su Jiu immediately said, “Big Brother, can you? I want to hear it!”
