Su Jiu glanced at the front door of the villa again. There is still no sign of the little villain. It’s already so late. He would most likely not be coming then… would he?
Although Rong Si had told her in advance that he would be busy, Su Jiu still felt upset. Besides, it was almost midnight, and the day was ending. He had not yet called her to wish her a happy birthday.
Sheng Zhiyan was on Han Siye’s side now. “That’s right. He didn’t even come on such an important day. And he’s our competition? In any case, if it were me, I would have rushed back no matter how far away I was.”
“Maybe he’s really too busy. It’s okay. He already told me on the phone.” Su Jiu smiled as if nothing had happened and spoke for Rong Si.
Han Siye snorted again. “It’s a fact that he didn’t come back. You’re still speaking up for him. Little Jiu, if he doesn’t value you and cherish you, ditch him and leave the opportunity to those who want it.”
He hasn’t given up on me yet, has he?
Su Jiu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Alright, alright. It’s getting late. Why don’t you guys hurry back?”
Han Siye knew that Su Jiu wouldn’t give up on Rong Si so easily. She is currently in a passionate relationship with that kid. Just the thought of it made him angry and… jealous.
After all the guests left, Su Shengjing sensed that Su Jiu was a little disappointed. He immediately guessed why. Needless to say, it’s definitely because of Rong Si!
He could not help but ask Su Jiu, “Why isn’t that kid here?”
“He’s too busy to come back. It’s fine. He’s already told me happy birthday and sent me a gift. I received it two days ago.” Su Jiu pretended to smile casually and tried her best to maintain Rong Si’s image in front of Su Shengjing.
Su Shengjing did not think too much about it. He nodded and said, “That’s more like it. It would have been weird if he didn’t say anything.”
At the side, An Yuan reached out to pat Su Jiu’s head and smiled gently. “Alright, there’s nothing we can do if he really can’t come back. Don’t be unhappy. I’ve already asked someone to move the gifts into the room. Take your time to open them.”
“Okay!” Su Jiu obediently nodded and tried her best to cheer up as she jogged upstairs to open the gifts.
Although she did not seem to lack anything, receiving so many gifts was still something to be happy about!
Su Jiu’s room was huge. It was a princess room with pink and white colors, decorated warmly and beautifully. The light pink curtains, the pure white wool carpet, and the overlapping lace curtains of the European princess bed were especially dreamy.
At this moment, a corner of the room was filled with gift boxes of all sizes and colors, like a small mountain. Anyone who came in from the outside would think that they had walked into a fairy tale kingdom.
Su Jiu started from the small ones. The gifts contained many expensive pieces of jewelry and cosmetics, as well as the latest bags and plush toys. Even the cheapest gift was worth thousands of dollars.
After opening dozens of gift boxes in a row, Su Jiu was tired. She had about ten left and planned to open them tomorrow. At that moment, her gaze fell on a pink gift box in the corner. She saw the strawberry pattern and suddenly thought of Rong Si again.
He knew she liked strawberries. Since childhood, he had given her lots of strawberry-themed presents: strawberry candy, strawberry cake, strawberry barrettes, strawberry-flavored milk tea, and strawberry-patterned notebooks, cups, hats, scarves, gloves…
Whenever he saw one, he’d buy it back for her.
