Chapter 310: Extreme cuteness!
Su Jiu looked at the dark sky and whispered, “Daddy, are we leaving now?”
“No, we’ll leave tomorrow. Baby, go to sleep. Daddy will stay here with you.” The wall was so high that Su Shengjing felt winded when he climbed the house alone. It was too dangerous to bring a child along with him.
Su Shengjing was unwilling to take on such a risk. He did not want anything to happen to the little girl, so he decided that they would leave tomorrow instead.
Since he was already here, could the old man even stop him from leaving?
Su Jiu had absolute trust in her father. Since he said he would leave tomorrow, then he would leave tomorrow.
Hence, she obediently lay back down and pulled up the blanket over herself. She looked at Su Shengjing with her big round eyes. “Daddy, you should sleep too!”
Su Shengjing smiled and glanced at the soft bed under the window. “Okay, Daddy will sleep there and accompany you. Don’t be afraid even if you get nightmares again.”
“Yes! With Daddy here, I won’t have nightmares!”

The next morning, Su Jiu woke up. The morning sun shone through the white curtains. Only then did she realize that it was morning.
Su Shengjing had just finished a call with the director. When he turned around and walked back from the balcony, he saw that the little girl had woken up. Her hair was in a mess, and she sat on the bed in a daze, rubbing her sleepy eyes.
It was simply adorable!
Su Shengjing smiled and walked toward her. “Are you awake, Baby?”
“Daddy, hug!” The little girl stretched out her arms.
Without another word, Su Shengjing picked her up. The little girl rested her head on his shoulder, closed her eyes, and continued to sleep.
Su Jiu truly felt that it was a blessing to be a child, especially a child who was loved. It felt good to have a father to rely on, one who would accept her childishness.
At this moment, the door opened and a maid walked in. “Little Miss, wake up… Old Master has prepared a lot of delicious food for you—”
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Su Shengjing and couldn’t help but exclaim, “Y-Young Master!”
“What are you blabbering about?” The butler, who had heard the commotion, reprimanded the maid. However, when he saw Su Shengjing, he also froze on the spot. He raised his glasses in disbelief and said, “Young Master, w-why are you here?!”
Su Shengjing snorted. “To pick up my daughter, of course.”
“No. How did you get in?!” Several security guards patrolled outside the door. Old Master had clearly said not to let Young Master in.
“You don’t have to worry about that. Anyway, that old man said that he would send my daughter back today, so what’s wrong with me picking her up?” Su Shengjing indifferently said as he carried the little girl out of the room past the butler.
Just as he walked down the stairs, a stern and cold voice rang behind him. “Stop right there!”
Su Shengjing knew who it was even without turning around.
Su Guobang stood at the top of the stairs and looked down at him. He mockingly said, “You brat, you’re getting more and more disgraceful. You actually snuck around like this? If this gets out, you’ll be a laughingstock!”
Su Shengjing nonchalantly replied, “If anyone wants to laugh, let them. As long as I can bring my daughter home.”
“This is her home!”
“Is that so?” Su Shengjing seemed to have heard a joke. He tilted his head and coldly looked at the old man. “Ask Little Jiu if she wants to leave with me or stay in this so-called home with you.”
