Chapter 118: I’ll Make Money To Support You!
“I’ll open the door. Are they the movers?” Sheng Tianci asked as he opened the door.
However, when he saw a skinny little boy standing at the door, he raised his eyebrows. “It’s you.”
Rong Si quickly hid his hands behind his back and embarrassedly asked, “Is Little Jiu here?”
It’s the little villain!
Su Jiu immediately jumped down from the sofa and ran to the door. Flashing a bright grin at him, she asked, “Big Brother, are you here to talk to me?”
Rong Si nodded. He then shot a glance at Sheng Tianci with an embarrassed expression.
He took out the object hidden behind his back and passed it to Su Jiu. “Here’s your present. Happy birthday!”
Su Jiu was surprised. She did not expect the little villain to know her birthday. Did he watch the show too?
The cake was an ordinary cupcake with cream and strawberries. Rong Si whispered to her, “The cake is a little small. In the future… I’ll give you a bigger one.”
Sheng Tianci was speechless.
Not bad, you rascal! So many already like Little Jiu, but you’re here to join in the fun too. Well, that’s enough people for a game of cards!
Tsk! My nephew is rich, but so hopelessly dumb. He doesn’t seem to have any advantage in the competition. Let’s see how he fares in the future!
“Thank you, Big Brother. I really like it!”
When Rong Si saw Su Jiu happily taking the cake, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Luckily, she doesn’t seem to mind it.
At that moment, Su Shengjing received a call from the moving company. Rong Si overheard him telling the movers that they could come up now. This stunned him, and he instinctively asked Su Jiu, “Are you moving away?”
A hint of anxiety crept into his eyes.
Su Jiu nodded. “Yes.”
The little villain turned silent and pursed his lips. It was obvious that he was reluctant to let her go, but he did not know what to say.
Su Jiu suddenly remembered that the little villain’s mother had significantly recovered from her illness. According to the novel’s plot, when she had gone to look for a job, a mysterious person had blocked her path. In the end, she had to sell her body to support the little villain.
Later on, the little villain had caught her in the act, which had left him with serious psychological trauma. It had even planted a seed of hatred within his mind.
If Su Jiu moved away just like that and cut off all ties with him, she would not be able to stop the little villain from becoming evil. That must not happen!
She quickly pulled the little villain aside and whispered to him, “Big Brother, do you want to move away? Do you want to leave this dirty place and live in a beautiful house?”
“Yes,” Rong Si answered without hesitation. “But I don’t have money.”
Su Jiu patted her chest and flashed him a bright grin. “It’s okay! I have the money to support you!”
Rong Si looked at her in shock.
Is… Is she being serious?
Sheng Tianci did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Little girl, you’re still a kid. How can you earn money to support other kids?”
Su Jiu puffed her cheeks. “I can do it! I’ll go and film the show. The director promised my father that if many people start watching the show, he’ll pay my father more money!”
As she spoke, she spun around and dashed toward Su Shengjing. She asked, “Daddy, I want to invite Big Brother to our new house. Shall we help him rent an apartment unit too?”
With the money her father currently had, renting another apartment unit was not a problem for him.
If everything went as planned, the second episode’s filming would start very soon. By then, he would have more money in his bank account!
“Hm?” Su Shengjing did not expect that Su Jiu would want that little boy to go with her.
“Daddy, can I?”
The little girl eagerly looked at him. Even if she made an outrageous request, like asking him to pluck the stars in the sky, he had no reason to refuse her.
Su Shengjing firmed himself, then replied, “We’ll have to seek his mother’s opinion.”
