She blinked away the moisture in her eyes and smiled. “Okay,” she said. “We’ll do it together.”

In the end, Song Wanqiu didn’t act immediately. Instead, she returned home with Rong Si and discussed their next step. They wanted to make sure that everything was well planned. They wanted to succeed in one fell swoop.
After they returned home, Rong Si’s phone rang.
He took it out and saw that it was Su Jiu’s number. He immediately picked up. “Hello?”
“Hello? Big Brother, are you done with your work? Is there a school that you like? I want to come and visit you next week. Dad has already promised me that I can visit. It wasn’t easy for me to get him to say yes.”
The little girl’s voice was soft and soft, carrying a hint of complaint, but it was so pleasant to hear. It was like the spring breeze in March, instantly calming all the turmoil in his heart.
His grades had been swapped. He was still the top scorer of this year’s college entrance examination. He had not let her down. Knowing this, Rong Si felt much calmer.
Her voice also calmed him down. “Yes, I’m almost done.”
“Really? Then did you choose a school?” Su Jiu pricked up her ears. She wanted to write down the name of the school. She wanted to enter that school in the future too and be schoolmates with her son!
“Not yet,” Rong Si said. After a pause, he added, “Next week, when you visit, I’ll choose with you.”
With you…
The low and magnetic voice of the little villain came from the other end of the phone. For some reason, it sounded very suave. Su Jiu felt her ears go numb as if they were electrified.
God, when did the little villain become so charming? It’s just a phone call. He hadn’t even appeared in front of her, yet her heart was already pounding.
Then again, this wasn’t the first time she had found the little villain attractive.
There was that year during the Spring Festival, when he had insisted on giving her an expensive jade pendant. To make her accept the pendant, he used the excuse of asking her to help him safeguard it. And the time when she had been setting off fireworks with him, when she had accidentally bumped into his chin and he chuckled above her. Or on the day she had sent him off at the airport, when he had suddenly turned back and hugged her tightly before boarding the plane…
She vividly remembered those scenes. She also clearly remembered how she felt back then. He really was charming!
Su Jiu gulped. Suddenly, she didn’t dare to imagine what the little villain would be like when he grew up. Her knees would go weak!
Oh no, oh no! How many hearts would my child break in the future?
Why not… let it be just me?
Wait, what am I thinking?!
Su Jiu quickly shook herself out of her thoughts and patted her slightly burning face. She had to wake up! She was an old woman. She couldn’t be having these dirty thoughts.
However, after that thought sprouted, it seemed to be unstoppable, and that little sprout was very tenacious. No matter how hard she tried to smother it, it still found ways to emerge.
Su Jiu felt that she was no longer a motherly fan. She was slowly straying away. From time to time, she would think of the little villain’s beautiful face and body. What was this?
Am I really a dirty old auntie?
It really did seem to be that way.
Su Jiu did not want to admit that she was an indecent old auntie. She pretended to smile as if nothing had happened. “Okay, let’s choose together.”
She was experienced and even considered herself a professional when it came to choosing schools. Hopefully, I will be able to help my child.
After happily making the decision, Su Jiu started to look forward to the next week. Suddenly, thinking of something, she asked, “Oh right, Big Brother, you haven’t told me how many marks you scored. Are you going to keep me guessing?”
“I’ll tell you next week.”
Su Jiu was confused. “Why next week?”
