Chapter 140: Your Daughter Is Also Very Cute
The person who had just spoken was a middle-aged man sitting beside Su Shengjing. Only an aisle separated the two of them.
Ever since Su Shengjing had sat down with Su Jiu in his arms and taken their masks off, the man had been glancing at them from time to time. He thought the two of them were really good-looking, just like celebrities.
This middle-aged man, who was around thirty years old, was dressed in a suit and a pair of leather shoes. He was handsome and exuded a gentle and dignified demeanor, like a successful businessman. Sitting beside him was a pretty little girl who looked about four, five years old. She was also curiously peering over Su Jiu and Su Shengjing.
When the girl saw Su Jiu, she shyly smiled, her big eyes clear and bright.
“Thank you.” Su Shengjing nodded at the man. “Your daughter is also very cute.”
Su Jiu took the initiative to greet both of them. With a sweet voice, she said, “Hello!”
The middle-aged man smiled. “Hello! Are you and your father traveling?”
“Yes!”
“What a coincidence! I also brought my daughter out to travel. Why don’t you two little girls get to know each other?”
Su Jiu looked at the little girl and introduced herself. “My name is Su Jiu, and I’m four years old. What about you?”
The little girl had worn a pink dress with a tiara-shaped clip on her hair. She looked as sweet as a little princess. When she saw that Su Jiu was not afraid at all, her shyness also disappeared. She cutely replied, “My name is Song Xinyan, and I’m five years old. I’m really happy to meet you!”
What? Song… Song Xinyan?
Su Jiu’s mind suddenly went blank as if she had been just struck by lightning. She was utterly stunned.
This is the name of the novel’s female lead!
Is this a coincidence, or…
Su Jiu regained her senses and quickly asked the man, “Uncle, what’s your name?”
The man was taken aback, not expecting Su Jiu to ask such a question.
If it were any other child, he would’ve definitely thought that the question was an impolite one. However, this little girl was simply too straightforward and cute. Hence, he gently smiled and said, “My name is Song Jiye.”
Su Jiu widened her eyes and gasped.
Could it really be such a coincidence?
In the novel, the female lead’s father, who is also my original character’s adoptive father, is also called Song Jiye!
Su Jiu was beyond shocked. She decided to test him again to confirm if he really was that “Song Jiye.” Hence, she said, “Uncle, I’ve heard of you. You own a very rich company called the Song Corporation. You’re a really good person who donates a lot of money to orphanages and old folk’s homes every year!”
Song Jiye was very surprised. Then, he laughed out loud. “You’re right. I do own the Song Corporation. Have I become that famous? Even a little kid knows about me. Looks like my efforts all these years have not been in vain.”
Su Jiu was speechless.
Oh no, oh no! I actually met the female lead and her father.
I left the orphanage to look for my real father precisely because I wanted to escape from these two and avoid interacting with them. I can’t believe that I still bumped into them here!
Su Shengjing was also a little surprised. He lowered his head and asked, “Darling, how did you know about him?”
“The orphanage’s director told us that he donated a lot of money.” Su Jiu used the orphanage director as an excuse again.
Luckily, Su Shengjing was not suspicious. He stretched out his hand toward Song Jiye and said, “I’m Su Shengjing. Nice to meet you.”
Song Jiye also shook his hand. “Nice to meet you too.”
While the fathers happily chatted, Su Jiu felt extremely flustered.
What should I do? Could it be that I can’t change the novel’s plot? Is what’s destined to happen, going to happen no matter what?
