Su Jiu looked up at him and giggled. “I just love clinging to Daddy,” she said deliberately. “I’m going to have to rely on him from now on. I’m going to live off him.”
Su Shengjing was amused. He stroked the hair on Su Jiu’s forehead. “Alright, Daddy’s money is for you to spend. You can eat as much as you want.”
Su Jiu laughed again.
Daddy is really a father sent from heaven!

With her father’s permission, Su Jiu boarded a flight overseas the next day. Su Shengjing arranged four bodyguards for her, twice as many as she had before. He repeatedly instructed them to ensure her safety.
Su Jiu called Song Xinyan and asked if she wanted to go with her. Song Xinyan excitedly agreed and came the next morning with her luggage.
Although Li Mohan did not want Song Xinyan to go, wanting her to stay by his side, he also did not want to make her unhappy. He had reluctantly agreed and even assigned her a bodyguard.
Only then did Su Shengjing heave a sigh of relief.

The award ceremony was being held in England. Su Jiu had arranged to meet Rong Si there, and her flight arrived at four in the evening.
Rong Si had arrived a little ahead of her. He followed Professor Zhong’s team off the plane and went into a nearby five-star hotel.
He had told Su Jiu on the phone earlier that he would be checking into this hotel with the team. Now, he wondered if she could find her way here.
Rong Si had sent Su Jiu the location, but barely a moment later, Su Jiu and Song Xinyan walked into the hotel lobby and saw him.
However, when Su Jiu saw that Zhong Ya was also there, she immediately pulled Song Xinyan to hide behind a Roman pillar.
Zhong Ya looked exceptionally beautiful today, and her makeup was exquisite. From time to time, she would look at Rong Si, wanting to talk to him. However, Rong Si ignored her and had eyes for only his phone.
The receptionist checked in Professor Zhong and the other students.
Su Jiu pursed her lips. “I wonder how many rooms they have booked?”
“Why don’t you ask?”
When they took the elevator up, Su Jiu immediately went to the front desk and asked for that in fluent English.
The receptionist answered her politely. However, Su Jiu was shocked to hear her answer.
Seriously? The team of five booked only three rooms?
And if she had heard correctly, Rong Si and Zhong Ya had booked a double room.
Are they planning to stay together tonight?
Why? How did it happen?
Had the little villain actually agreed?
But that shouldn’t be the case.
Song Xinyan also found it a little strange. Seeing that Su Jiu’s expression was not right, she comforted her softly. “Little Jiu, don’t think too much. We know their room number. Shall we go up and take a look?”
“Yes, yes.” Su Jiu nodded quickly.
She did not believe that Rong Si would share a room with Zhong Ya, but that was what the receptionist had said.
For now, they could only verify it themselves.
Ding!
After coming out of the elevator, Su Jiu and Han Siye began to search for Room 2231.
Let’s look; 2202, 2203, 2204, 2205… That’s it!
The door was ajar, and a slight movement was happening inside. Afraid that Rong Si would come out at any moment, the two girls quickly hid around the corner of the stairs and observed carefully.
A moment later, a click sound rang out as the door opened and closed.
Rong Si and Zhong Ya walked out together, their expressions as cold and distant as ever.
Zhong Ya walked beside Rong Si and asked him in a gentle voice, “Rong Si, are you hungry? What do you want to eat tonight?”
“…”
“Shall we eat on the fourth floor? I hear there’s a Chinese food restaurant here, and it’s good. Shall we try it together?”
