Chapter 612: A Little Naughty but Very Handsome!
She had been, she currently was, and would always be in the future the only exception!

The next morning, Su Jiu woke up under the warm blanket in the hotel due to her cell phone ringing.
Su Shengjing had booked a room with double beds and slept on the bed beside Su Jiu’s. The two of them were separated by two bedside tables. The ringing came from the phone inside the drawer.
The ringing also woke up Su Shengjing. He opened his sleepy eyes and angrily reached for his phone. “Who is it? Why are you calling so early in the morning? Don’t you know you’re disturbing my sleep?”
Suddenly, he saw the caller ID on the screen, and his mood instantly changed. All his annoyance vanished; he even smiled and turned to Su Jiu. “Baby, it’s Mommy.”
Su Jiu immediately perked up. “Daddy, pick up quickly!”
Su Shengjing picked up the call with a smile. “Hello? Darling, why are you calling so early?”
An Yuan’s voice also carried a hint of a smile. “‘So early!’ Can’t you see what time it is now? Are you and Little Jiu still sleeping in? It’s true, isn’t it? No one looks after you and Little Jiu when I’m away.”
Both father and daughter glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already nine in the morning. They had thought it was still early as the curtains in the room were drawn and the room was dark.
Su Jiu playfully stuck out her tongue and leaned over to say, “Mommy, I hardly ever get to go on a vacation. I have to relax and sleep in! It’s a pity that you didn’t come with us. The scenery here is gorgeous.”
An Yuan laughed. “I would’ve loved to travel with you and your father, but I’m too busy with work. I’ll bring you beautiful clothes and bags when I come home, alright? How about a limited edition item?”
“I already have a lot of clothes and bags. My closet is full.” Su Jiu felt helpless.
One of her mother’s hobbies was to buy things for her, especially expensive clothes and bags. She would even buy a lot of hats, shoes, and accessories for her. Su Jiu’s closet really was running out of space.
An Yuan said disapprovingly, “Isn’t there quite a lot of space in the house? Mommy will get you another one when we go back.”
“Mommy, I don’t want so many clothes and bags. I just want to be with Daddy and Mommy!”
Su Jiu said into the phone, her soft voice sounding a little pleading.
Even then, An Yuan was in a good mood due to hearing her daughter’s voice. She insisted on buying gifts for Su Jiu no matter what. Su Shengjing listened from the side and suddenly felt his heart ache a little.
He was very supportive of buying more things for his daughter; that was what he usually did. However, he hadn’t heard his wife say that she wanted to buy gifts for him too; so he deliberately shouted, “Darling, what about me? Aren’t you going to buy presents for me?”
An Yuan smiled again. “You’re already an adult. Can’t you buy them yourself?”
“I want you to buy them for me.”
“What if I don’t?”
Su Shengjing nonchalantly raised his eyebrows. “Then when you come home, I’ll just have to punish you.”
Su Jiu was speechless.
Daddy, there’s something wrong with you!
Are you trying to flirt?
An Yuan choked for a moment before she reacted and said in embarrassment, “What are you talking about? Little Jiu is still there.”
“Ah, what did I say? What I meant was that when you come back, I won’t cook for you anymore. If you want to eat, cook the food yourself. What were you thinking about, huh?” The corners of Su Shengjing’s lips curled up into a devilish smile.
Su Jiu felt that her father must have said that on purpose.. He was a little naughty, but he was also very handsome!
