Chapter 131: I Am Smiling Frantically

“Hmph, you’re the stupid one, you big idiot!” Su Jiu angrily flung Han Siye’s hand away. Ignoring him, she strode ahead with the big basket in her hands.

Han Siye suddenly smiled. The corners of his lips curved upward into a charming smirk.

Since Han Siye was a head taller than Su Jiu and had longer legs, he walked faster than her. He easily caught up with her. Then, he reached out and grabbed her pigtails. “Hey, I was just teasing you!”

Su Jiu shielded her pigtails from his grasp and puffed up her cheeks. Feigning anger, she cutely scolded him, “You’re so mean! Don’t grab my hair. My father tied my hair for me, so if you mess it up, I’ll cry!”

Upon hearing this, Han Siye immediately put down his hand. “Alright, I lose. I won’t grab your hair anymore.”

“Really?” Su Jiu was skeptical.

“Why would I lie to you?” Han Siye said as he reached out to take her basket. “Give it to me. I’ll help you carry it.”

A sweet smile immediately spread across Su Jiu’s cheeks. “Thank you, Big Brother!”

The smile stunned Han Siye for a moment. He thought that Little Jiu looked adorable when she smiled. His ears blushed, but he merely grunted an acknowledgment as if nothing had happened.

The audience could not stop grinning at this scene.

“Ah! This is the first time I’ve seen Han Siye smile. He’s so handsome, just like Han Xiao!”

“When he smiled at Little Jiu and said that he had lost to her, he looked so affectionate!”

“I’m frantically smiling. My mom even thinks that I’ve gone crazy.”

Su Jiu had been living independently ever since she had left the orphanage. Hence, she was experienced with buying groceries. When she reached the market with Han Siye, she started looking for the ingredients with ease.

However, Han Xiao thought that she did not know anything at all. He turned around and asked, “What does your father want you to buy?”

“He wants to buy fish and vegetables.”

Han Siye nodded and brought Su Jiu to a fish stall. When the stall owner saw that his customers were just two little kids, he sold a big fish to Su Jiu at the cheapest price.

“Thank you, uncle. I hope you can sell all your fish and earn a lot of money!” Su Jiu sweetly exclaimed.

The stall owner’s heart softened. Ah, whose daughter is this? Isn’t she too cute?

After buying the fish, Su Jiu came to a vegetable stall. She frowned a little as she tried to remember Su Shengjing’s favorite dishes.

When she came to a conclusion, she pointed at a few vegetables and asked, “Uncle, can you hand me two tomatoes and a cabbage? And this, this, and this!”

The vegetable stall owner also found her adorable. He helped her pick out the ingredients she wanted to buy and did not charge her much. He even gave her a bunch of green onions for free.

Su Jiu bought all the ingredients in one go, fulfilling her mission. Moreover, she bought a large variety of ingredients, and the portions were just right.

The audience praised Su Jiu for being impressive.

Besides Han Siye, who was trying hard to remember what he needed to buy, the other children were not fulfilling their missions. Xiao Wei was looking at models in a toy shop, Li Nuoer had been distracted by the cotton candy sold on the streets, and Chen Xixi’s eyes were fixated on a doll sold in a small shop.

They had completely forgotten what they were supposed to do after coming to the market.

As Su Jiu was the first child to complete the mission, the cameraman asked her to show the camera what she had bought. Su Jiu pointed at the vegetables in the basket and said, “This is what my father likes. This too! Everything is his favorite!”

She acted as if she were showing off the results of her victory; like she had done something amazing. Her rosy cheeks were glowing with excitement and pride.
