Chapter 611: The Difference In Little Jiu’s Treatment
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Rong Si picked up his chopsticks and placed a piece of beef into Su Jiu’s bowl.
Su Jiu looked at him and sweetly smiled. “Thank you, Big Brother!”
Sheng Zhiyan was speechless.
What’s going on? Why is Little Jiu only smiling at that kid and not at me?
Why is there such a difference in her treatment toward us!
Sheng Zhiyan became a little unhappy. He picked up another piece of meat and placed it in Su Jiu’s bowl, trying to attract her attention. “Little Jiu, you’re too skinny. You have to eat more meat so that you can grow taller!”
Then, he put the meat into her bowl. As he did so, he glared at Rong Si across the table.
Rong Si’s expression did not change, but he picked up a piece of pork rib and placed it in Su Jiu’s bowl.
Sheng Zhiyan gritted his teeth. It seems like this brat wants to challenge me. Refusing to be outdone, he continued to put pieces of meat into Su Jiu’s bowl.
Rong Si immediately followed. Soon, the food in Little Jiu’s bowl piled up like a small mountain.
Su Jiu was speechless.
Enough, you two!
What are they doing? Are they trying to kill me?
The corners of Su Shengjing’s mouth wordlessly twitched. Song Wanqiu, on the other hand, felt helpless and amused.
From the looks of it, Ah Si has a lot of competitors. In the future, if he wants to chase after Little Jiu, it would probably be very tough.
Seeing that Sheng Zhiyan still wanted to give her more food, Su Jiu quickly reached out to stop him. “Enough, enough! I can’t eat so much. Don’t give me more food.”
Rong Si got the chance to place the final piece of meat in Su Jiu’s bowl. Drawing back his chopsticks, he smugly glanced at Sheng Zhiyan.
Sheng Zhiyan felt like he had lost. He instantly got exasperated and gritted his teeth. If Little Jiu had not been present, he would have jumped up and fought with Rong Si.
The one who won would have the right to sit next to Little Jiu and give her food!
Seeing that the atmosphere became tense again, Su Jiu started to have a headache again. She quickly picked up a drumstick for Rong Si and Sheng Zhiyan and said, “Okay, Big Brothers, be good. Let’s eat!”
Sheng Zhiyan only stopped when he heard her coaxing words. He snorted and rolled his eyes at Rong Si before lowering his head to eat his food.
He bit into the drumstick first.
This was something Little Jiu had given him, so he had to eat it first.
Rong Si, on the other hand, was the opposite. He kept the drumstick until the end before eating it. He ate it very seriously as if he was eating an exotic delicacy.
Su Jiu noticed this and looked at him quietly eating. For some reason, her throat felt a little tight.
Although the little villain was not as ruthless and hateful as he had been in the original novels, he was still a fragile and sensitive child. He needed more care to grow up healthy.
She really hoped that he would become more and more cheerful, to the point where he could be childish like Sheng Zhiyan.
After dinner, Sheng Zhiyan invited Su Jiu to go sightseeing at the night market, saying that he would buy her lots of fun and delicious food. Su Jiu could only reply that she was tired today and that they could meet again another day.
The boy looked disappointed. Nevertheless, he said goodbye to Su Jiu, Su Shengjing, and Song Wanqiu, then he accompanied his chauffeur to go back to the hotel.
After he walked out of the door, he suddenly turned around and said to Su Jiu, “Little Jiu, can you play with me tomorrow?”
When Rong Si heard this, he immediately looked at Su Jiu with a complicated gaze.
He didn’t want her to go out with other boys.
Su Jiu did not answer Sheng Zhiyan directly. “We’ll talk about it tomorrow. It’s not early anymore. Big Brother, go back quickly and rest. Aren’t you tired from your flight today?”
Sheng Zhiyan choked, but at the thought that Little Jiu might be concerned about him, his mood instantly improved again. He smiled and said, “I’m a little tired. Alright then, I’ll go back first. Little Jiu, see you tomorrow!”
After sending him off, Su Jiu heaved a sigh of relief.
Sigh, this pestering young master has finally left.
Su Shengjing walked over and patted her hair. “It’s time for us to go back to the hotel. Don’t forget that you also flew here today and even played the whole afternoon. You should rest early too.”
Are we going back just like that?
Su Jiu and Rong Si had the same thought.
Although the little villain was a man of few words, Su Jiu still enjoyed his company. He was an obedient child and his looks were so pleasing to the eye!
When she saw him, her mood improved.
However, it was indeed time to go back now. Su Jiu nodded and reluctantly said to Rong Si, “Big Brother, I’ll go back first. I’ll come back to find you tomorrow.”
Come and find me tomorrow?
Does this mean that she would not play with Sheng Zhiyan?
Rong Si suddenly felt happier and nodded. “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
Su Jiu was speechless.
Why do the words “wait for you” sound so suave? He clearly hasn’t grown up yet. I can very well imagine that if he says this after he grows up, girls will go crazy for him!
Su Jiu left with Su Shengjing. Rong Si immediately walked to the balcony and watched them leave the district.
He only turned away when their figures disappeared into the darkness.
Song Wanqiu walked to his side and stroked his hair. She smiled and asked, “Were you happy to see Little Jiu today?”
Rong Si said without hesitation, “Yes.”
He paused for two seconds before adding, “I’m unhappy again.”
“Huh? What are you unhappy about?” Song Wanqiu was surprised.
“Because of that boy.”
That boy?
Song Wanqiu was stunned for a moment. Then, she realized who her son was talking about. The young master of the Sheng family?
She burst out laughing. “Ah Si, don’t be unhappy. He’s Little Jiu’s friend too. It’s normal for him to come over and play with her. Besides, I think Little Jiu likes you more.”
Rong Si immediately looked at her. “Really?”
Song Wanqiu looked at her son, who was almost as tall as her. She thought about how he had really grown up and was nearly at the age when he would experience his first love. She smiled and nodded.
“Really, you still don’t believe Mommy? Look, Little Jiu is happy to play with you and she likes to smile at you. She even said that she would come to look for you tomorrow. She’s not that passionate toward the young master of the Sheng family.”
Rong Si could tell that, but he was still unhappy.
He really wanted Little Jiu to look for him alone and stay with him. She was his only friend. As for the other boys, he didn’t like to see them get close to Little Jiu, let alone play with her.
He wanted… to make Little Jiu his.
Even though he knew that it was impossible, he still had such thoughts, and they seemed to be growing stronger by the day.
This made him feel like a dangerous person.
In fact, he had long noticed that he was different from other children. It was not because of his IQ, but because of the psychological difference.
Ever since he and his mother were chased out of the Rong family on that rainy night many years ago and they almost had to sleep on the streets, he seemed to have grown up overnight. The seeds of hatred were planted in his heart.
As a result, he had become a completely different person. He had become sinister and cold, and he kept people at a distance of a thousand miles. He could not play with children his age, and he did not want to interact with them.
Little Jiu was the only exception.
