“We were together before the last kidnapping incident.”
Rong Si answered truthfully. Then, he added, “It has been 435 days.”
What?!
Has it been that long?
Su Shengjing was stunned. He quickly recalled that after Little Jiu’s birthday last year, she had gone to Vienna to watch Xiao Yang and Xiao Wei’s piano concert.
According to the timeline, she had already gotten together with this kid at that time. Now, Su Shengjing was completely sure that the backpack he had seen in Little Jiu’s hotel room back then really belonged to this kid.
Su Shengjing was instantly annoyed. “How dare you have designs on my daughter and let her date you? Did you get my permission? Do you take me seriously?”
Rong Si was calm and composed. “Then, will you give me your permission to date her?”
Su Shengjing was speechless.
He suddenly felt as if he was the one being scolded.
Is the boy already so arrogant? Is he no longer afraid because Little Jiu likes him and would definitely protect him?
Su Shengjing gritted his teeth. “What if I say no?”
“Then I’m sorry, Uncle. I won’t let Little Jiu go.”
“Does that mean you’re going against me? And even if my daughter’s going to marry in the future, she’s going to have to marry someone with a proper name. I’m not going to let her suffer with someone who doesn’t have anything. I’m sorry! I’m just being realistic. Don’t tell me that love beats everything. I don’t fall for that.”
Love without money usually didn’t last. He had worked hard to give his child the best life he could. If she wasn’t going to do as well with another man as she was with her father, why should he let her be with that man?
Rong Si took out his wallet from his pocket and took out a bank card. He handed it to Su Shengjing. “There’s a seven-figure deposit in it. Before long, I’ll turn it into an eight-figure, nine-figure deposit, or even more.”
Su Shengjing looked at the bank card and then at the determined young man in front of him. He could not help but raise his eyebrows.
This kid’s got a lot of spunk. But he doesn’t think he can make that much money so easily, does he?
He’s really young and reckless.
“Kid, don’t be too sure. I know you made a lot of money from the research you did before, but don’t think you’re so good just because you’ve had a little taste of it. Making money isn’t that easy.”
“What if I can do it?” Rong Si asked him seriously.
Su Shengjing frowned. Could it be that…
Sure enough, Rong Si continued, “If I do that, can Uncle trust me with Little Jiu?”
Su Shengjing glared at him. “Get lost. Can my daughter be measured by money? I won’t sell my daughter!”
“I don’t see Little Jiu as a commodity. I love her.” When Rong Si said this, his expression changed for once. His ears turned slightly red.
Su Shengjing snorted. “Many people like my daughter. How much do you like her?”
Rong Si didn’t hesitate. “I won’t marry anyone but her.”
Su Shengjing was speechless.
He usually says such things to Little Jiu, right? Is that how he coaxed her into dating him? How long has he been hiding it?
Su Shengjing did not know whether to be angry or what to do. Little Jiu had always been opinionated. To be able to date this kid for so long meant that she really liked him.
