Chapter 476: This Sounds Familiar
Su Shengjing turned his head and looked down at the little girl who was clinging to him. The corners of his lips curled up as he carried her to sit on his lap. “Daddy isn’t unhappy. With Baby by my side, why would I be unhappy?”
“But Daddy is clearly unhappy.” Su Jiu puffed up her cheeks and tentatively asked, “Daddy, do you hate him because he did something bad?”
As Su Shengjing recalled the past, his eyes dimmed a little. However, he pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile, “Yes, he did something bad. When he bullied Baby previously, Daddy was very angry with him.”
“Really?” The little girl looked at him suspiciously.
Her instincts told her that things were not that simple.
She thought of the samoyed she had seen at the Su family previously. Su Guobang hated it the moment he saw it. Perhaps it had something to do with her father!
Su Jiu’s limpid eyes were filled with a thirst for knowledge. Looking at them, Su Shengjing suddenly felt as though he could no longer hold himself back. He felt as though it was a sin to hide this from her and deceive her. Furthermore, he had previously said that he would never lie to her again.
But I’m not lying to her now, am I?
Su Shengjing hugged her and gently said, “Yes, but there’s another reason. Does Baby want to know?”
“Yes!” Su Jiu vigorously nodded. She really wanted to know why her father’s relationship with Su Guobang was so bad. No matter what, they were biological father and son. It shouldn’t be like this.
Su Shengjing looked at her steadily. His eyes suddenly dimmed, and a hint of sadness appeared on his face.
Su Jiu was stunned.
She had never seen her father look like this before.
In the past, even when her father lived in that rundown house, no matter how tough his life was, he had never revealed such an expression; nor had he asked others to help him. But now, her father seemed to have become fragile in an instant.
This made her heart ache.
Su Shengjing adjusted his emotions before saying in a slightly hoarse voice, “Baby, Daddy used to have a younger sister.”
What? A younger sister?
Su Jiu was stunned again. This was something she did not expect.
She hurriedly asked, “Then where is she? Why haven’t I seen her?”
Speaking of this, Su Shengjing lowered his gaze and bitterly said, “She passed away a long time ago. Does Baby know what that means?”
Passed away!
Su Jiu was even more shocked.
She vigorously nodded. “I know! If she has passed away, she has gone to another world and we can’t meet again!”
“Yes, that’s it.” The corners of Su Shengjing’s mouth twitched. His smile was uglier than a crying face. “Daddy used to like his sister very much and had a very good relationship with her. But the old man didn’t like it. He said that she was an illegitimate daughter and wanted to chase her out. I didn’t agree. I used hunger as a protest, I refused to eat…”
Su Jiu looked at him without blinking and listened seriously.
Su Shengjing continued, “But the old man still sent her overseas and found a family to adopt her.”
Su Jiu was stunned.
This sounds familiar.
Previously, when Su Guobang had brought her to the Su family, he had said that he wanted to send her abroad and find a family to adopt her. She immediately asked, “What happened after that, Dad?”
Something bad must have happened after that. That’s why Dad is upset.
Su Shengjing’s chest heaved up and down. He took a deep breath as if he was trying his best to calm his emotions. Then, he said, “After she went overseas, I didn’t see her for many years, but we kept in contact. On my sixteenth birthday, she said she would come back to visit me secretly. I was especially happy, but unexpectedly…”
