Chapter 855: Only a Third Wheel

Su Shengjing felt guilty.

Before he could explain, An Yuan continued, You didnt even let me know that such a serious thing happened and instead ran off on your own. What do you take me for? Im Little Jius mother. Dont I have the right to know what happens to her?

I just didnt want you to worry.

An Yuan got furious now. So you came here alone? Are you stupid? Have you ever thought about what Little Jiu and I will do if something happened to you?

But Im fine now Su Shengjing felt even more guilty. He looked away, not daring to look at her.

You An Yuan bit her lip in anger. Su Shengjing, Im telling you. If anything happens in the future, you have to let me know. If you dont tell me just because youre afraid Ill worry, Ill be furious!

I know, I know. Ill listen to you, my dear wife. Su Shengjings eyes were smiling. He looked so doting that An Yuan blushed.

She reached out and patted his head. Be serious!

Okay, whatever you say.

When she met his gentle gaze, An Yuan could clearly see her reflection in his eyes. She could not imagine what he had experienced these past few days and how he had endured all that. Her eyes p.r.i.c.kled, and she felt very uncomfortable. She could not help but reach out to hug him and bury her face against his neck. Idiot, you have to take care of yourself. Dont us worry for you!

Even though she said that, she could understand Su Shengjings actions. If it were her, she would also have risked everything to save Little Jiu.

When Su Jiu saw that her father was also reaching out to hug her mother, comforting her in a low voice, she chuckled and quietly left the ward, leaving the two of them alone.

***

Su Jiu left the ward with a smile on her face. The fear she had been feeling for the past few days had finally come to an end. She hoped that her father would be safe and sound in the future and that such a thing would not happen again.

Rong Si watched her smile in a daze. The worry and unease he had been feeling dissipated as well. He could return to his studies in peace now.

Su Jiu sensed his gaze and saw that he seemed about to say something. Do you have something to tell me, Big Brother?

She could tell.

Rong Si nodded, and Su Jiu pulled him toward the stairs in the corridor. Han Siye wanted to follow them because he didnt want Su Jiu to be alone with Rong Si, but in the end, he remained where he was.

As he looked at their compatible figures, his lips curled into a bitter smile.

Han Siye, do you still not understand?

Little Jiu doesnt like you at all. You have no chance with her. If you follow her, youll only be a third wheel and an eyesore to her.

He could only stand there and watch in silence. However, he would still observe them in secret. If he found out that Rong Si had touched Little Jiu again, he would not just sit back and do nothing!

At the staircase, Rong Si looked down at the girl in front of him and hesitated for two seconds before saying, Ill be returning to my studies.

Su Jiu was stunned. Her mind had been on her father these past few days, and she had forgotten that the little villain had taken leave to come here. Now that so many days had pa.s.sed, it would be unreasonable for him to stay here anymore.

Disappointed, she puffed out her cheeks. Alright, then. You should go back, or the professor will be angry.

After a pause, she asked, When do you leave?
