132: Daughter's Slave

Daughter's Slave

The cameraman casually asked Su Jiu, "Why did you buy your father's favorite food instead of your own?" 1

Huh?

As if she had just realized something, Su Jiu glanced around.

She noticed something at the convenience shop. Hurriedly walking over, she pointed at an ice cream in the freezer and asked the shopkeeper, "Uncle, how much is this?"

The shopkeeper replied with a smile, "Five dollars."

Su Jiu lowered her head and stared at the money in her hands. She only had a few cents left, so she mumbled, "I don't have any more money."

However, at the next moment, she raised her head and cheerfully said to the camera, "It's alright. I'll buy my favorite food next time. This time, I'll buy Daddy's favorite food!"

After saying that, she happily ran back, dragging the basket along with all her might.

Finished with their work, the fathers were sitting in the break room, watching their children's every move on the television screen. When everyone saw this scene with Su Jiu, they simultaneously turned their gazes toward Su Shengjing.

Han Xiao was very jealous. "Not bad! How did you raise such a caring daughter? She's thinking about you even when she's buying groceries!"

Chen Ke clutched his chest and exclaimed, "That's it! I feel so tormented now. I need to go out and get some fresh air. Look at my child! He went to buy toys instead. He completely forgot about what I said at all. He and Little Jiu are so different from each other!"

"Of course, my daughter is the most considerate." Su Shengjing proudly raised his chin.

However, when no one was paying attention, he quickly wiped away his tears.

He could not control his sudden emotions anymore. Tears started to brim in his eyes.

Ever since he was young, he had lived in a family devoid of affection and kinship. He always felt as if something was missing in his life.

To escape from that family, he had entered the entertainment industry.

He thought that he would never experience the feeling of kinship in his life again. However, out of his expectations, a little girl had suddenly appeared in his life and filled the gap in his heart.

When Su Shengjing saw that Su Jiu had left the market and was about to return, he could not sit still anymore. He stood up and left the break room.

He wanted to pick Su Jiu up. After all, his heart ached when he saw her carrying such a heavy basket of vegetables with her small stature.

Han Xiao watched as Su Shengjing ran out and chuckled. "Tsk, he's like his daughter's slave."

Xiao Yang enviously remarked, "If I have a daughter like Little Jiu, I'd be happy to be one too."

Li Kaiwen chimed in too. "Everyone feels the same way!"

Chen Ke lamented. "In comparison, my relationship with my daughter doesn't seem to be that good… I'm also jealous."

Su Shengjing rushed to the entrance of the village and anxiously waited for Su Jiu's return. Five minutes later, he spotted the little girl and instantly walked toward her.

Su Jiu did not expect her father to be waiting for her there. She called out in surprise, "Daddy!"

Su Shengjing quickly walked up to her and hugged her without a word. He tenderly kissed her head and praised her. "You're so amazing!"

The moment he hugged his child, he felt like he was complete.

His initial worry finally disappeared.

"Daddy, I bought a lot of your favorite food!" Su Jiu showed him the basket as if she were presenting a treasure to him.

Su Shengjing laughed. He carried her with one hand and picked up the basket with the other. "Come, let's go home. I'll cook something delicious for you."

"Okay!"

The setting sun hung high above the trees, enshrouding Su Shengjing and Su Jiu with a faint golden glow. The light cast long shadows on the road. This scene was heartwarming and beautiful.

Using the ingredients Su Jiu had bought, Su Shengjing cooked three dishes. When he saw Su Jiu happily eating, he felt satisfied.

When Su Shengjing recalled how excitedly Su Jiu told the camera that these were all his favorite food, his heart ached. Suddenly, he said, "Darling, I'm going out for a while and will be back soon. Continue eating at home and wait for me to come back, okay?"
