Chapter 1221 - Should I Leave?
1221 Should I Leave?
“Good, that’s great!” Su Guobang was overjoyed. When he saw Rong Si, his eyes were filled with admiration. He teased him. “Future grandson-in-law, you’re here too. Did your family agree to you having New Year’s Eve dinner at our house?”
Rong Si smiled. “We’re all family. We’re one and the same.”
When Su Guobang heard that, the smile on his face widened.
In short, he was extremely satisfied with his future grandson-in-law. Everything about him was perfect. Sometimes, when Su Guobang met with his old friends, he would mention Rong Si, intentionally or unintentionally, with some pride in his tone.
Rong Si was young and promising, a business genius. Word had long spread in the circle. Su Guobang’s old friends were envious from the bottom of their hearts. Their reactions had really made him proud.
Su Guobang tried his best to hide the pride in his heart and seriously said, “You’re right. You and Little Jiu are already engaged, but you can’t really be considered a family. Don’t blame me for gossiping. I just want to ask: when do the two of you plan to get married? I’ve checked it. There are many good days suitable for marriage after the new year.”
When Su Jiu heard this, her ears suddenly heated up. She shook Su Guobang’s arm. “Grandpa!”
Su Guobang glanced at her and saw that his precious granddaughter was blushing. He laughed and said, “What’s wrong? I’m helping you. Do you know that now that Rong Si is famous, many business partners I know want to marry their daughters or granddaughters to him? So you have to settle down quickly. Don’t let others snatch him away.”
Su Jiu glanced sideways at Rong Si and pursed her lips. “If he can be snatched away, he’ll still be snatched away even if he gets married, so it has nothing to do with marriage.”
“How can you say that it doesn’t matter? After marriage, other girls won’t have any ideas about him if they know what’s good for them.”
“Those who don’t know what’s good for them will still fight for it.”
Su Guobang was speechless.
His eyes widened as he glanced back and forth between her and Rong Si. “Anyway, I’ll just say one thing. When do you plan to get married? Give me a definite answer”
Su Jiu subconsciously looked at Rong Si, wanting him to save the situation.
Rong Si was also a little uncomfortable, but he maintained a polite smile. “As long as she agrees, I can do it anytime. As for what you’re worried about, I can guarantee you that it will never happen. Not in this lifetime.”
He took one of Su Jiu’s hands and held it tightly in his palm. “Only I know how important Su Jiu is to me. No one can replace her. I even feel that I exist because of her. Without her, I’m nothing.”
Su Guobang was stunned. He had not expected the young man to say that.
His mood instantly improved, and he laughed loudly. “Good! It’s good that you think that way. Of course, it’s not that I haven’t thought about it. If you dare to let Little Jiu down and bully her, I’ll make you pay the price even if I have to risk my life!”
Su Jiu was embarrassed. “Grandpa, it’s New Year’s Eve today. Why are you threatening him?”
When Rong Si saw how she was protecting him, his eyes were filled with gentleness, and his lips curled up. “Then you’ll definitely live to a ripe old age. After all, you don’t have to risk your life.”
When Su Jiu found out that Su Shengjing and An Yuan were busy in the kitchen, she excitedly ran over to them and wrapped her arms around Su Shengjing’s neck from behind. “Daddy!”
Su Shengjing was making dumplings when she suddenly hugged him. He was so shocked that he almost crushed the dumplings in his hand. He turned around and saw Su Jiu. Pretending to be angry at her, he said, “You’re so old, yet you’re still so naughty?”
Su Jiu puffed up her cheeks. “If Daddy doesn’t like it, then I can just leave!”
