Rong Si lowered his eyes and answered in a muffled voice, “No.”
Song Wanqiu was a little surprised. “No? Why? Hadn’t Little Jiu said that she would play with you today?”
“She went out with someone else.” At this point, Rong Si recalled seeing Sheng Zhiyan hold Su Jiu’s hand and lead her away in the morning. His jaw tightened.
Song Wanqiu could sense that something was wrong with her son’s mood. He seemed to be in low spirits, which made her feel uncomfortable.
She understood her son’s personality. Rong Si had always been a loner and often kept people at an arm’s length. It was as if he had closed himself off from everyone. Only Little Jiu could get him to open his heart to her, and so he regarded Little Jiu as someone very important and cared about her.
He would definitely become unhappy if Little Jiu went out to play with other boys. Moreover, if Su Jiu didn’t ask, he wouldn’t tell her. He was used to burying everything in his heart.
If that’s the case, it will only be a matter of time before he breaks.
Song Wanqiu’s heart ached as she walked over and sat down beside him. Patting his head, she said, “Ah Si, if you want to stay with Little Jiu, you should take the initiative to look for her and tell her what you’re thinking. Like how you want to play with her. If you don’t tell her, how would she know what you’re thinking?”
Song Wanqiu patiently tried to persuade him. “You said that Little Jiu went out to play with someone else. Was it that boy from yesterday?”
Rong Si nodded, his eyes darkening.
“He took the initiative to look for Little Jiu, right?”
Rong Si nodded again.
“Then I guess he must have told Little Jiu his thoughts, right?”
Rong Si recalled that earlier, Sheng Zhiyan had indeed been enthusiastic and proactive. He must have called Uncle Su and asked Little Jiu out in the morning. And after they came out, he pulled Little Jiu away as if there was no one else around and left without a care.
However, Rong Si knew he could not do that.
He was always worried that he would do something wrong and offend Little Jiu. He was afraid that his actions would make Su Jiu and her father hate him, distance themselves from him, and ignore him.
As he cared too much, Rong Si was careful and afraid of making mistakes.
Seeing her son remain silent, Song Wanqiu inwardly sighed. She then patted his head and said, “Alright, we’ll go look for Little Jiu tomorrow. Tell her directly that you want to play with her, or invite her to our house as a guest, okay? Boys should be brave and proactive.”
Her gentle voice made Rong Si feel better. “Okay.”
He decided that he would follow his mother’s instructions and look for Little Jiu tomorrow. Besides, he had to be more proactive.
He thought carefully about how he should take this initiative.
Rong Si originally thought that Little Jiu had forgotten what she had told him yesterday. Unexpectedly, when the sun went down and the sky darkened, the doorbell suddenly rang.
He was stunned for a moment. The thought that it could be Little Jiu behind that door popped into his mind. In an instant, he was filled with anticipation again. When he opened the door and saw the little girl standing outside, his heart pounded. It felt like his heart had been shot through with an arrow.
Su Jiu stood at the door and smiled sweetly at him. “Brother, I’m here to look for you. There’s a music fountain in the city center tonight, and it seems to only be open for the next two days. Do you want to come with me to see it?”
Looking at her sweet smile, Rong Si suddenly felt nervous. His palms started to sweat.
After a few seconds, he hesitantly asked, “Is it just you and me?”
If Sheng Zhiyan was going, then he would not go.
