Chapter 49: You Are Not Obedient

As Rong Si was picking trash earlier, his body was filthy. Furthermore, he had even gotten into a fight with someone. She definitely doesn’t like me anymore.

However, that boy… Rong Si’s gaze fell on Sheng Zhiyan, who was still struggling to break free.

This boy is handsome and well-dressed. He looks clean as well, so he definitely doesn’t need to pick trash like me. And since he mocked me for not having parents, he probably has parents.

He’s much better than me. Little Jiu will naturally prefer to play with him.

“Let me down!” When Sheng Zhiyan saw Su Jiu helping Rong Si, he became even more furious. He felt like someone had snatched away his favorite toy, so he struggled to free himself.

Feeling Rong Si’s resistance, Su Jiu thought that his pride must have been hurt again.

No child would feel good if they were mocked like that.

However, she remained silent and just reached a hand out toward Rong Si.

Rong Si did not know what she wanted to do. Subconsciously, he thought of avoiding her. However, Su Jiu’s hand had already landed on his shirt, and she patted the dust away from his body.

Sheng Zhiyan was a child after all; he was no match for Sheng Tianci. He was unable to free himself from Sheng Tianci’s grip, and his face flushed with anger. He could only shout, “Little Jiu, he’s a little beggar. His clothes are filthy. Stay away from him!”

Rong Si glared at Su Zhiyan with a vicious and angry gaze.

Su Jiu followed his gaze, pouted, and reprimanded Sheng Zhiyan, “Big Brother, you’re not obedient. How can you fight with others?”

Sheng Tianci agreed with her. “Did you hear that? Little Jiu said that you aren’t obedient. If you don’t stop, she won’t play with you anymore.”

Sheng Zhiyan immediately stopped struggling. He clenched his fists and glared at Rong Si, feeling indignant and aggrieved. He had intended to act like a hero in front of Su Jiu. He thought that if she saw he was skilled at fighting, she might enjoy hanging out with him more. In the end, she actually scolded him for not being obedient…

The more Sheng Zhiyan thought about it, the more wronged he felt. In the end, he pouted and burst into tears. Out of spite, he yelled, “It’s fine if you don’t want to play with me. I don’t care about it!”

Su Jiu’s lips twitched. This little brat really has a bad temper. I can’t even reprimand him.

Sheng Tianci lowered his head and glanced at Sheng Zhiyan. Clicking his tongue, he spoke, “Why are you acting so righteously even though you did something wrong? And you’re even crying now? How embarrassing it is for a boy like you to cry in front of a girl!”

Sheng Zhiyan’s eyes were red and brimming with tears. But when he heard those words, he immediately sniffed and stubbornly held back his tears.

Even though he had said that he did not want to play with Su Jiu anymore, he did not want to embarrass himself in front of her. Moreover, he had immediately regretted saying those words. Will Little Jiu hate me and really not play with me anymore?

As he thought about it, Sheng Zhiyan became even sadder. Drooping his head, he sobbed while peeking at Su Jiu from the corners of his eyes.

Su Jiu was still standing with that little beggar, and Sheng Zhiyan did not like it at all!

Sensing his resentful gaze, Su Jiu felt that she needed to comfort this angry boy.

She walked over and cutely coaxed him, “Don’t be mad, Big Brother. If you listen to Uncle, you can be an obedient child.”

“Hmph!” Sheng Zhiyan arrogantly averted his gaze. “I don’t want to be an obedient child!”

To deal with a mischievous child, one needed to understand the child’s inner thoughts and deal with the root cause. Despite knowing that Sheng Zhiyan was lying, Su Jiu went along with his words. “Then, Big Brother, are you angry with me? Will you forgive me if I apologize to you?”

Sheng Zhiyan was speechless.

When he turned around, he saw the cute little girl looking at him with reddened eyes as if she were about to cry. All of a sudden, he felt that he was a really wicked child.
