Chapter 762: Responsible for Her

Her mind was a mess as if she could not think anymore.

Actually, every time she saw the little villain now, apart from getting stunned at him, she would also blush and her heart would beat faster. This had never happened before to her. So, she no longer simply liked the little villain like how she liked her children. Instead, Su Jiu had a feeling that she was too embarrassed to admit.

Although she had such thoughts in her heart, Su Jiu could only shake her head in the face of Su Shengjing’s thoughtful gaze. “No, Daddy. My relationship with him is not what you think.”

An Yuan could not bear to see her daughter’s nervous look. She glanced at Su Shengjing and tried to persuade him. “Alright, today is Little Jiu’s birthday. What do you mean by this? Little Jiu and Rong Si have known each other since they were young. It’s normal for them to be on good terms. If she says she’s not in a relationship, then she’s not. Don’t think too much about it.”

Su Guobang added, “That’s right. Besides, what if Little Jiu is dating? She’s grown up now. It’s normal for her to have a boy she likes. Does she really need your permission?”

“Of course, she does. I’m her father, so I have to be responsible for her. She’s grown up, but she’s not an adult yet. She’s not allowed to date before that. And I have to see if the boy she chose is good enough before she can date. Otherwise, I’ll be worried!”

Su Shengjing spoke firmly.

When Little Jiu was young, he had decided to be a good father and take good care of her while she grew up. Thus, he wanted to keep everything that could hurt her outside.

It was unknown if young boys like Han Siye and Rong Si were mature enough. Did they really know what love was?

Would they take a relationship seriously?

As for Little Jiu, she was even more innocent because of her age. She was easily fooled by boys’ sweet words. When Su Shengjing was still in high school, he had seen many cases where girls had been cheated on.

Su Guobang felt what his son said was not without reason. Naturally, he did not want to see his little granddaughter hurt either. So, he put on a stern face and said, “Don’t worry! If anyone dares to cheat on Little Jiu and hurt her feelings, I will not forgive him. I will definitely kill him!”

The butler behind him shivered.

Kill him?

Sure, but that’s not necessary, is it, Old Master?

Su Jiu did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Daddy, did you hear what grandpa just said? How would I dare to date a boy? It would be bad if someone died.”

Su Shengjing snorted. “It’s best if you don’t dare!”

It was no wonder that he was so concerned about this matter. He really did not want to send his most precious daughter off to another man so soon. Just thinking about it made his heart ache.

However, Su Jiu was getting closer and closer to adulthood, and she would still leave them for someone else. He could only try his best to delay this opportunity so that the day she left wouldn’t come so soon…

Seeing that her father did not probe further, Su Jiu felt relieved and quickly ran upstairs.

Su Shengjing looked at her retreating figure. Su Guobang asked, “Which family is that boy from?”

Apart from his character, he was most concerned about his family background.

Little Jiu was the heir of the Su family and was like a little princess. Naturally, she had to find a boy whose family background was similar to the Su family’s. Only then would they be compatible. If their family background was not good, wouldn’t Little Jiu be at a disadvantage if she married him?

If there was a huge gap between their family backgrounds, then he was not qualified to become the Su family’s son-in-law!

“He doesn’t have a good family background,” An Yuan replied. “But he’s still a good person.”

Doesn’t have a good family background?

Su Guobang’s expression suddenly turned serious. “It’s not okay if his family background isn’t good! There are so many outstanding boys with good family backgrounds. I know a few of them. Shall I introduce them to her?”

“If Little Jiu wants to get married in the future, someone from a poor family background doesn’t need to be considered at all. The granddaughter of Su Guobang can’t get married to such a person. It would be a tragedy!”

Su Guobang’s tone was firm. He had the same thoughts as Su Shengjing. An Yuan wanted to laugh.

It seemed that if Rong Si liked Little Jiu and wanted to be with her, he would have to work a hundred times harder than normal people.

Otherwise, he probably wouldn’t have a chance.

At that moment, Rong Si had not left. Instead, after Su Jiu entered her house, he turned back and stood not far away from the Su family’s villa. His deep eyes stared at the window of a room on the second floor. The curtains there were half-closed, and the room was lit with a yellow light.

It was Little Jiu’s room.

Although she did not appear there, he felt satisfied just by looking at her.

The cool night breeze blew, causing the trees to sway and his black hair to flutter. Rong Si stood like this for an unknown period until the night deepened and the surrounding clamor gradually became quiet. Only then did he turn and leave.

***

At night, Su Jiu tossed and turned but could not fall asleep. The scene of the little villain standing under the street lamp and waiting for her kept replaying in his mind like a movie.

And what he said to her; he even stroked her hair…

Su Jiu subconsciously reached out to touch the top of her head. There seemed to be some warmth left over from his palm.

Unlike how she treated Han Siye, Su Jiu didn’t resist the little villain.

He’s leaving tomorrow morning. I really want to send him off. What should I do?

Su Jiu thought for a long time and only fell asleep at two in the morning. The next morning at six, the alarm clock that she had set last night woke her up.

She opened her sleepy eyes and got up with two dark circles under her eyes. After washing up, she changed her clothes, carried her bag, and left the house without eating breakfast.

It was still early, and the villa was empty. Her nanny had not even woken up yet. Su Jiu especially chose this time to sneak out and went all the way to the hotel where Rong Si was staying.

Rong Si stayed in a hotel nearby and was only ten minutes away from the villa. When Su Jiu arrived at the entrance of the hotel, there were a few more cars and people on the street. She wondered if the little villain was awake.

She estimated that it would take at least an hour to get to the airport from here. Given the little villain’s personality, he should have already woken up, right?

Su Jiu took out her phone and called him.

As expected, the call was picked up very quickly. “Hello?”

His voice in the morning sounded especially low and magnetic, and it was also exceptionally pleasant to the ears. Su Jiu’s heart beat fiercely, but she pretended to be calm. “Big Brother, I’m at the entrance of the hotel!”

“What?” Rong Si was stunned.

She is at the hotel entrance?

He frowned and walked out of the room quickly as he listened to the phone call. Then, he hurriedly took the elevator down. When he rushed out, he saw a petite figure that he could not be more familiar with.

At this moment, Su Jiu also saw him and instinctively gave him a bright smile. “Big Brother.”

Rong Si’s heart skipped a beat; he was clearly not expecting her to appear here. He immediately stopped in front of her. “Why are you here?”
