Chapter 41: Doted On By Everyone (1)
Sheng Tianci rubbed the back of his head and said with uncertainty, “Probably… After what happened to him back then, he left the entertainnt industry. He must be unwilling to accept his fate. He told before that he wanted to beco a top star, so maybe, he still dreams of being a celebrity.”
Midway through his speech, he changed his mind. “Well, why am I telling you this? A little girl like you probably won’t understand it. What I’m trying to say is that your father might still like working in the entertainnt industry.”
Su Jiu struck while the iron was hot. “Uncle, can you let Daddy enter the entertainnt industry?”
Old Mistress Sheng felt her heart ache when she saw how worried Su Jiu was about her father.
Such a young child, yet she’s so concerned for her father. Why aren’t my naughty kids so obedient? They only know how to create trouble and anger others.
Thinking of sothing, she imdiately said to Sheng Tianci, “Doesn’t your second brother own an entertainnt company? Talk to him. See if he can promote Su Shengjing again. Su Shengjing is still young, after all. He can’t continue like this.”
Sheng Tianci said with a sigh, “Will soone as opinionated as Second Brother listen to ? He looks down on , okay! Plus, Su Shengjing’s reputation is so bad now. Which company will accept him? Wouldn’t that be akin to digging a pit for themselves and planting a ti bomb that can explode at any ti?
“No company wants to incur a loss or spend so much effort to promote a person tied down with scandals. They might as well groom a newcor with loads of potential. It’ll save ti and effort, and it won’t be so risky.”
Su Jiu’s face fell.
Sheng Tianci was right. In the condition his father was in right now, only a madman would sign him into their company.
Su Jiu pouted and miserably asked, “Uncle, is there no other way? If Daddy really dreams to beco a celebrity, will that dream never co true? He’ll be very sad.”
Old Mistress Sheng could not bear to see the little girl’s disappointed look. She imdiately slapped Sheng Tianci on the back and said, “Did you hear that? Look at how thoughtful Little Jiu is. You should help her. Don’t disappoint that child!”
Sheng Tianci’s lips twitched. “Of course, I don’t want to disappoint her. But, Mom, I think that you should talk to Second Brother instead. He listens to you and Dad more.”
Old Mistress Sheng thought about it and agreed. Her gaze fell onto Su Jiu’s face again as she stroked her soft hair. In a loving tone, she said, “Little Jiu, don’t be unhappy. Grandma will help your Daddy.”
“Really? Thank you, Grandma!”
Old Mistress Sheng’s eyes lit up when she saw Su Jiu face flush with excitent. She got an urge to tightly hug Su Jiu and dote on her. Her desire to have a granddaughter of her own grew stronger.
She couldn’t help but glare at her disappointing son again.
Sheng Tianci could only avert his gaze, pretending not to notice her.

Su Jiu stayed at the Sheng Family for a day and successfully beca the target of everyone’s affection. She enjoyed the treatnt fit for a princess. However, Su Shengjing did not co to pick her up. Even though the sky was turning dark, he had yet to arrive.
Old Mistress Sheng tried to coax Su Jiu for the hundredth ti. “Little Jiu, it’s almost night ti. Why don’t you stay for the night? I’ll ask the cooks to prepare sothing yummy for you. Sleep with tonight, okay?”
Sheng Zhiyan, who was at the side, agreed with the sentint. “Yeah, little sister. Don’t go back. You can sleep with tonight. I’ll give my favorite toys to you!”
He offered what he thought was a tempting offer, but Su Jiu fidgeted with her hands. As a conflicting expression about making a difficult choice appeared on her face, she firmly asserted, “No, I can’t. Since Daddy said that he would pick up, he’ll definitely co.”
