Chapter 888: I Don’t Believe You
When Su Jiu and Han Siye safely returned, Su Shengjing could finally be at ease.
His daughter had left for only a few days, but Su Shengjing felt like it had been years. From time to time, he would think of her and worry that she wasn’t eating well or sleeping well outside. When he saw that she was in good spirits, he could not help but ask, “Baby, how have you been these days?”
“Pretty good. I saw Rong Si and gave him a birthday cake,” Su Jiu honestly replied. The thought of Rong Si made her smile again, and she quickly lowered her head, not wanting her father to notice it.
However, Su Shengjing noticed that and suspiciously asked, “What are you so happy about?”
Su Jiu’s heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly said, “Nothing. I’m just happy to see Daddy slowly getting better!”
Su Shengjing was speechless.
Oh, I don’t believe you.
Something is clearly wrong!
Su Shengjing stared at her. When he saw her slightly red cheeks, he narrowed his eyes. “Baby, are you in a relationship with Rong Si?”
Su Jiu’s eyes widened.
No way! He can tell that?
No, I can’t admit it.?If I admit it now, Daddy might rush over and break the little villain’s legs.?That was what Su Shengjing had said before, even if Rong Si had saved her.
“Daddy, I… I just went to celebrate his birthday. It’s really nothing…” Her voice was quieter than before, and she lacked confidence.
......
“Is that so?” Su Shengjing did not believe her.
An Yuan, who was at the side, quickly tried to smoothen things. “Aiya! Stop worrying about Little Jiu’s love life. You have to take care of yourself first. Little Jiu’s always been a good girl. She has never caused us any trouble. You keep telling her not to fall in love before she turns 18. She remembers, don’t you, Little Jiu?”
An Yuan looked at her and secretly gave her a look before continuing, “If you’re still worried, I’ll help you look out for her, alright?”
Receiving the signal, Su Jiu immediately nodded. “That’s right! Daddy, you can let Mommy take care of me.”
“Come on. Who doesn’t know that you two are working together? Your mother is on your side!” Su Shengjing’s tone was sour.
Fortunately, he did not pursue the matter. Otherwise, Su Jiu might have really revealed everything.
The guilt Su Jiu felt for lying to her father was particularly intense. But… she could do nothing about it. All she could do was silently apologize to her father.
After coming out of the ward, An Yuan led Su Jiu to the corner of the corridor. She reached out to tuck Su Jiu’s hair behind her ear and gently asked, “Little Jiu, tell Mommy. Are you… with Rong Si?”
Did Mommy guess it too?!
Su Jiu looked at her mother in shock, then blushed. “Um… if I say yes, will Mommy tell Daddy?”
“Then tell Mommy first. Are you with Rong Si?”
Su Jiu blushed even more, embarrassed to look at her mother. Her voice was as small as a mosquito’s. “Yes…”
“Really? That’s good.”
Su Jiu was a little surprised to hear An Yuan say that. “Mommy, you’re not mad?”
An Yuan laughed and ruffled her hair. “For what? Mommy has long since seen that you like him, and he likes you as well. If you two weren’t together, that would be weirder. Also, didn’t Mommy tell you before? I’m not like your father, that old antique.”
