Then, Auntie Zhang secretly told him that Su Shengjing had finished the whole bowl. He was just unwilling to admit it. Rong Si’s lips twitched as if he was trying to hide a smile.

This smile was faint, but it was soul-stirringly beautiful. Auntie Zhang felt that if she were a few decades younger, if she had still been in that era of her life, she might have been mesmerized by him and tried her best to woo him.

No wonder a young lady like Little Jiu likes him. He is really good-looking.

Auntie Zhang arranged a guest room on the first floor for Rong Si. Rong Si lay in this unfamiliar environment. It was late at night, but he did not feel sleepy at all. It was not because he felt uncomfortable, but because his mind was filled with thoughts of Su Jiu.

She was upstairs, under the same roof as him, but he couldn’t see her. It was torture for him.

He really wanted to go up and see her, but he knew that Su Shengjing might be secretly watching him. If he went up without thinking, the traces of goodwill that he had painstakingly built up would probably be gone.

Rong Si could only resist the urge to see Su Jiu. He took out his phone and sent her a message. “Good night. Let’s meet in our dreams.”

After he sent the message, no response came for a long time. Rong Si knew that she must have fallen asleep.

Only then did he close his eyes and drift off to sleep.

Rong Si slept well, but Su Shengjing could not. He was constantly worried that if he fell asleep, Rong Si would seize the opportunity to go upstairs. So he walked to Su Jiu’s room from time to time to turn the doorknob. When he realized that it was still locked, he felt much more at ease.

He got up no less than ten times that night and went to sleep only when he couldn’t stay awake anymore. When he woke up the next day, it was already late in the morning.

Su Shengjing immediately sat up from the bed and walked into the bathroom. In the mirror, he saw that he had dark circles under his eyes and looked a little haggard. He gritted his teeth in frustration.

It’s all that brat’s fault that I didn’t sleep well. I should have chased him away yesterday.

When he finished washing up and went downstairs fully dressed, he saw the two people sitting in the dining room. It was Little Jiu and the brat.

The two of them were chatting and laughing as they ate breakfast. When Rong Si handed her a sandwich, Su Jiu took a bite from his hand and smiled sweetly at him. Su Shengjing immediately felt that this brat was an eyesore.

The bright light of the morning filtered through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows on the other side of the dining room, casting a faint glow over the two youngsters. The image was quite beautiful. Still, Su Shengjing found it an eyesore.

At this moment, Su Jiu also saw him and greeted him with a smile, “Daddy, Daddy, come over for breakfast!”

Su Shengjing tried his best to ignore Rong Si and walked over to sit beside Su Jiu.

He glanced at the sumptuous breakfast spread on the table, both Chinese and Western cuisine, and was surprised.

When did Auntie Zhang learn to make Western-style breakfasts and so much of it?

“Daddy, try this first.” Su Jiu eagerly placed a thick egg sandwich on the plate in front of him.

Su Shengjing picked it up and tasted it. He was stunned.

He had eaten a lot of sandwiches, but he rarely felt this satisfied!

The thick eggs inside were accompanied by refreshing shrimp and ham. It didn’t feel greasy at all. On the contrary, it tasted delicious.

He could not help but take two more bites. Su Jiu handed him a plate of spaghetti with minced meat. After tasting the dish, Su Shengjing felt that it tasted similar to the food in high-end western restaurants.

He said casually, “Auntie Zhang’s culinary skills have improved a lot.”

Su Jiu burst out laughing. “Daddy, what are you talking about? Big Brother made all this!”
