Chapter 318: Be Responsible for Her
“If I had such a cute daughter, I would’ve never sent her to the orphanage.”
An Yuan did not know why Little Jiu’s mother had not wanted the child; she had not appeared even after sending her to the orphanage.
If it were her, no matter how difficult the situation was, An Yuan would find a way to raise her daughter. If she gave birth to a child, she had to be responsible for her; she wouldn’t throw the child to the orphanage and leave it to fend for itself.
It was hard to imagine. If the little girl had not found her father, Su Shengjing, she would still be living in the orphanage or had been adopted by someone else.
The family that adopted her might not even have treated her well. At least, they wouldn’t have doted on her as much as Su Shengjing did.
At this point, Su Shengjing suddenly felt a little guilty. He lightly coughed.
Back then, he hadn’t wanted to raise Su Jiu either. He wanted to send her back to the orphanage.
However, he was now glad that he hadn’t heartlessly left her back then. Otherwise, it would’ve been the biggest loss of his life!
An Yuan thought of a question and curiously asked, “By the way, will you really find a stepmother for Little Jiu?”
“At the moment, I’m not thinking about this problem. I just want to do my best and give my younger one the best life. As for that stepmother…” Su Shengjing smiled. “I don’t even have a girlfriend. How can I find a stepmother for Little Jiu?”
An Yuan picked up the cup of coffee that her assistant had made for her and lowered her head to blow on the coffee. She took the opportunity to hide the complicated emotions that flashed in her eyes. Then, she pretended to casually ask, “Don’t tell me you haven’t found a girlfriend in all these years?”
Su Shengjing gave a self-deprecating smile. “No. I couldn’t even support myself. Who would’ve liked me?”
He couldn’t even support himself?
An Yuan was stunned for a moment. She suddenly recalled a report she had read before. The report said that a former popular male celebrity now led a worrying life.
The accompanying picture was of a bearded man wearing a cheap tank top, shorts, and slippers, choosing discount items at the supermarket. That haggard face was Su Shengjing’s.
At that time, he had been worlds apart from that high-spirited youth he had been before.
An Yuan recalled that when she was still in high school, a bully from another school had once stopped her with a few boys. He had asked her to be his girlfriend. When she refused, he grabbed her hand to drag her away.
While she had been panicking, Su Shengjing had suddenly appeared and angrily said, “Let her go!”
“Who do you think you are? How dare you spoil my plans? Get lost if you know what’s good for you, or I’ll beat you up! Ah—”
Before the boy could finish his sentence, Su Shengjing had rushed up and given him a hard punch in the face. The boy had staggered from the blow, and blood gushed out of his nose. Furious, he had attacked Su Shengjing together with his lackeys.
Just like that, Su Shengjing had gotten into a fight with these boys and even told An Yuan to quickly leave. She had run to call the school’s security; only then the other boys had left.
Su Shengjing had been beaten up quite badly. His face was bruised and swollen. Even though his face had been injured and he was in a sorry state, he didn’t seem to care at all. His thumb scraped the blood from the corner of his lips, and he angrily shouted at the backs of those boys, “F*ck! Don’t you know that you don’t hit people’s faces when hitting them? Are you jealous of my handsomeness? Why did you hit my face? If you have the guts, fight me one by one!”
The security guard had slapped his head in disdain. “One on one, are you crazy? You brat, follow me to the principal’s office!”
Su Shengjing could only follow the security guard. After a few steps, he had turned around and saw that An Yuan was still standing on the spot, staring at him blankly. He had smiled at her and gestured her to leave, signaling her to hurry home.
