Su Jiu saw that Sheng Zhiyan’s fair face was slightly red from the afternoon sun and a sheen of sweat covered his forehead. She could guess that he had waited for a long time for her. Feeling a little guilty, she said, “Big Brother, you can go back to the hotel. You don’t have to wait for me.”
“But I want to wait for you!” Sheng Zhiyan said straightforwardly. When he saw Su Shengjing, who was behind Su Jiu, looking at him with a faint smile, he instantly got embarrassed and softly added, “I wanted to play with you.”
Su Shengjing said in disdain, “You’re already grown up, yet all you think about is playing. You have to study hard every day, understand?”
Afraid that Little Jiu would think that he was a person who did not study well, Sheng Zhiyuan hurried to explain, “I… I usually study hard and my results are not bad! It’s just that I’m on holiday now, so I want to relax.”
“Is that so?”
“Of course! Little Jiu, you have to believe me. I’m really a good student who loves to study.”
Looking at his anxious expression, Su Jiu felt helpless and amused. “Alright, I believe you.”
Only then did Sheng Zhiyan heave a sigh of relief; his image hadn’t been ruined.
Actually, his grades weren’t that good. He really didn’t like studying, and he had lied to Little Jiu just now. However, he had decided just now that he would study hard after returning to school and would improve his grades. That way, he wouldn’t be lying!
I’m such a smart boy.
Song Wanqiu smiled and said, “Alright, Zhiyan. You must be tired after waiting for so long. Come over to Auntie’s place and have dinner together with us.”
“Can I? Thank you, Auntie!” Sheng Zhiyan was elated again. Auntie Song is too nice.
If only Uncle could work harder and marry her, then Auntie Song would become my aunt. However…
He glanced at Rong Si.
No, if Uncle marries Auntie Song, wouldn’t this boy become my brother? He seems to be a year older than me.
He would be the younger brother. No, I can’t tolerate that!
Hence, if Uncle marries Auntie Song, I can’t let this boy stay with me. I have to firmly object.
…
Song Wanqiu and Su Shengjing prepared a sumptuous dinner for the three children. Rong Si and Sheng Zhiyan sat on either side of Su Jiu like two guardians.
Su Shengjing had always sat beside Su Jiu, but now, he could only sit opposite her. He was so angry that his teeth were grinding.
These two brats…
No matter what, Sheng Zhiyan was Sheng Tianci’s nephew. Song Wanqiu was polite to him. “Zhiyan, Auntie and your Uncle Su made so many dishes today. You must eat more.”
Sheng Zhiyan was rather obedient in front of her. He nodded and replied, “Okay, Auntie. Thank you!”
Although he was a pampered young master, he knew the basic etiquette at the dining table. After Su Shengjing and Song Wanqiu started eating, he picked up his chopsticks and picked up a juicy drumstick first.
He did not eat it himself but placed it in Su Jiu’s bowl.
Su Jiu was stunned. She looked at the drumstick in her bowl and then at Sheng Zhiyan. He smiled brightly at her, revealing his two cute canine teeth. “Little Jiu, the biggest drumstick is for you.”
Su Jiu really wanted to tell him that he didn’t have to do that, but since he had already placed it in her bowl, she could not put it back. This would make him lose face, so she could only force herself to say, “Thank you, Big Brother!”
Rong Si looked at the two of them and pursed his lips. He could not help but tighten his grip on his chopsticks.
Song Wanqiu could tell what he was thinking and smiled at him..
