Chapter 1183 - 1183 His and Little Jiu's Child
1183 His and Little Jiu’s Child
“Of course not.” Rong Si smirked. “You’re not worthy.”
“Yes… I’m not worthy.” Rong Cheng softened his tone. “Ah Si, I know you’re a good child. So… if you hate me, I will gladly suffer. But Little Xi and Qiao Man are innocent. Little Xi… is your sister after all, and Qiao Man, although she’s not your mother…”
Rong Xi pursed her lips tightly. For some reason, she suddenly felt nervous.
Especially when that pair of cold black eyes landed on her, her entire heart caught in her throat.
She had always wanted a brother, an outstanding brother like Rong Si. If he were willing to acknowledge her identity, her life would be much easier.
She did not need to be like she was now, having nothing and being attacked by the Qiao family! Rong Xi remembered clearly how unpleasant those people’s words were when they scolded her and her mother.
If Rong Si stood up for her, those people would not dare to say a word.
Rong Cheng saw Rong Si glance at Rong Xi and thought that there was a chance. He continued, “My last wish is… you can help take care of Little Xi and her mother. Is that okay?”
His voice was quite gentle. Rong Si had never heard him speak like this before.
However, despite the gentleness, he felt even more disgusted at Rong Cheng’s hypocrisy.
“What if I say no?” Rong Si looked away as if he had seen something disgusting. There was nothing good lingering in his eyes.
Rong Xi was speechless.
On the other hand, Qiao Man couldn’t hold it in anymore. “Rong Si, are you that heartless? Do you want to force us to a dead end?”
Rong Si seemed to have heard something ridiculous. “I’m just returning the favor.”
Qiao Man was speechless.
Her mouth moved, but she didn’t know what to say.
Rong Si had been very young when Rong Cheng had chased him and Song Wanqiu out of the Rong family. That young kid should not have known what hatred was. However, he hated them from back then until now. Even though Song Wanqiu was already living a good life now and even though Rong Cheng had given in to him and tried to reason with him, Rong Si was still unmoved.
Rong Xi also felt that Rong Si’s attitude toward their family was completely different from how he treated Su Jiu.
She had seen him in front of Su Jiu more than once. He was so gentle and doting, and his eyes always held a smile. It was as if all his feelings and goodwill were for Su Jiu.
So much so that when he faced their family, he was so cold that he seemed to have no feelings at all.
She could guarantee that even if Rong Cheng died in front of her, Rong Si would not blink.
Qiao Man gritted her teeth and secretly reached out to pinch Rong Cheng’s thin hand, which was hidden under his hospital gown, indicating for him to continue.
Rong Cheng felt a slight pain in his wrist and could only continue, “Ah Si, I’m begging you, okay? It’s okay if you don’t recognize your relationship with Little Xi, but she’s my daughter. I can’t just watch her die… Just take it that you pity a father’s heart. When you have a child, you’ll understand.”
Rong Si still found it ridiculous. “I won’t let my child suffer. Only a stupid and incompetent person like you would.”
Speaking of children, he suddenly thought of what his and Little Jiu’s children would be like.
Would they be more like me or more like her?
As long as he thought about it, his heart would soften. A scorching heat rippled in his chest.
Rong Cheng’s expression changed, and his eyes became a little evasive, as if he was ashamed.
