Chapter 449 - Only Little Jiu Can Touch It!
"There's no need. You can play with Little Jiu for a while," Song Wanqiu awkwardly said. Then, she turned around and returned to the dining room to continue making dumplings.
Sheng Tianci wanted to go over and help her, but he was afraid that if he made it too obvious, she would reject him. He didn't want to risk that.
Su Jiu looked up at him and curiously asked, "Uncle Sheng, why are you here? Don't you have to eat with Grandpa and Grandma Sheng?"
Sheng Tianci ruffled her hair. "It's because I'm worried about you. I just called your father. He said he hasn't reached home yet, so I came to see you."
"Uncle is so nice!"
"You're admitting I'm nice only now? Look at your father. He's not home every other day. Why don't you come home with me and be my daughter?" Sheng Tianci had said this more than ten times, but he still wasn't tired of asking it.
He loved the little girl from the bottom of his heart.
Su Jiu patiently replied, "No! Little Jiu is tired of saying this. If I become Uncle's daughter, Daddy will be very sad. Little Jiu cannot abandon him."
Sheng Tianci was speechless.
Heavens, please grant me a daughter like Little Jiu!
As Sheng Tianci sighed, he accidentally met Rong Si's deep gaze. The little rascal was staring at him with a thoughtful expression.
He couldn't help but laugh and reached out to pat his hair. "Kid, what's wrong? Am I not welcome?"
However, before his hand could touch Rong Si's head, the little guy hurriedly took a step back, not letting him touch him.
Only his mother and Little Jiu could touch his hair!
Sheng Tianci knew that this kid had a personality. He was different from other boys. At least, he was different from his silly nephew.
This little fellow looked like a mature adult and was not easy to deal with, so he did not insist on stroking his hair.
Sheng Tianci picked up a bag of ingredients from the supermarket on the coffee table and walked over to Song Wanqiu. "I bought a lot of ingredients. Why don't we start a hotpot? It's convenient, delicious, and creates a good atmosphere."
Song Wanqiu was stunned. Is he really planning to have a reunion dinner here?
She had not expected that.
However, she was not against it.
She nodded and smiled. "You're the guest," she said. "You have the final say."
"If that's the case, then I won't stand on ceremony. Let me show you what I can do." Sheng Tianci smiled and walked into the kitchen with the ingredients. He really started to prepare a hotpot.
Song Wanqiu did not expect that a young master from a wealthy family like Sheng Tianci, who had been pampered since young, could actually cook. Moreover, he handled the ingredients as though he was used to preparing them. Her opinion of him rose.
Not long after, the doorbell rang again. Su Shengjing entered the house with a lot of ingredients.
The moment he entered the house, Su Jiu's eyes lit up and she happily ran toward him. "Daddy!"
Looking at the little girl hugging his leg, Su Shengjing suddenly felt a lump in his throat. All this while, he had been filming overseas and finally came back before the reunion dinner.
He put the things down and picked the little girl up. Then, he held her hand and kissed it. "Baby, did you miss Daddy?"
"Yes! I missed Daddy so much…" The little girl lowered her voice and buried her face in his arms.
She could feel the chill on her father's body. There were still snowflakes on his shoulders, and he looked worn out. It made her heart ache.
Sheng Tianci came out of the kitchen. When he saw this scene, he was both envious and jealous. He said sourly, "Look at you. If you don't come back soon, Little Jiu won't recognize you anymore. By then, I'll kidnap her and bring her home to raise her myself!"
Su Shengjing glanced at him and sneered.. "Just try it."
