I Become A Burdensome Child After Transmigrating

It was Little Jiu’s fourth birthday the next day.

When Su Shengjing had first met Su Jiu, there had been a birth certificate in her bag. It mentioned her name and birthday, which he had silently memorized. A few days ago, he had thought that since Little Jiu’s birthday was coming soon, he should give her a proper celebration.

However, then the show happened. He had gotten so preoccupied with thinking about how to conduct himself in the show that he almost forgot about this important matter!

Su Shengjing instantly broke out into a cold sweat. However, he was glad that he had remembered this in time. Otherwise, he would feel extremely guilty toward Su Jiu.

From Little Jiu’s expression, it seems that she doesn’t recall it either. That’s good! I can give her a surprise tomorrow.

At night, Su Shengjing got some water for Su Jiu to wash up and brush her teeth. When it was getting late, they lay on the bed together.

The camera hidden in the corner of the room recorded every interaction between the father and daughter.

Su Jiu knew that the scene before they fell asleep would be broadcasted, so she decided to leave the audience with a good impression of her father. Hence, she snuggled into Su Shengjing’s arms like a tiny kitten. “Daddy…”

Su Shengjing looked down at her and gently pinched her cheeks. “Are you feeling sleepy?”

“Yes… Daddy, can you tell me a story?”

“What story do you want to hear?”

After some deliberation, Su Jiu softly said, “I want to hear the story about the Ugly Duckling.”

“Okay, I’ll tell you.” Su Shengjing tucked her into her blanket. With his charismatic and mellow voice, he narrated the story to her.

After the story ended, Su Jiu snuggled in his arms and mumbled with her eyes closed, “Daddy, you’ll also become a beautiful white swan.”

Her child-like voice, which was filled with such innocence, momentarily stunned Su Shengjing. A bitter feeling rose in his heart.

No matter how much the public criticized him, Su Jiu had always believed in him. She always admired him and stood by his side. However, he had a vague inkling that Su Jiu was aware of his current situation; she was not actually an ignorant child.

Holding back his tears, Su Shengjing stroked Su Jiu’s tiny head and promised with a smile, “I also hope that I can become a white swan one day. When that day comes, we’ll fly high in the skies together, okay?”

“Okay!” The little girl chuckled and wrapped her arms around Su Shengjing’s neck. “Daddy, Mommy doesn’t want me anymore. You’re now the most important person to me. I want to stay with you forever.”

When this episode was broadcasted, the audience felt quite bad.

“Su Shengjing’s voice is so nice when he tells bedtime stories. If he’s not a celebrity, he should do a voiceover for the male lead of an idol drama!”

“His daughter is so obedient and thoughtful!”

“Although Little Jiu is still young, she seems to understand her situation. She even consoled her father. My heart aches for her…”

“I feel so sorry for her. Su Shengjing, you better take good care of your daughter for me!”

“I have to admit that Su Shengjing is gentle and patient with his daughter. Those antis who accuse him of putting on an act should just admit their mistakes now. If he were merely acting, why does Little Jiu like him so much? Why does she want to stay with her daddy forever?”

Afterward, #SuShengjingNarratesTheUglyDuckling and #LittleJiu’sMommy even made it to the trending searches.

The next day, Su Shengjing woke up early. He asked the cameraman to watch over Su Jiu, then headed out alone.

The audience was curious about where he was going. How can he leave the little cutie alone at home?

What if she wakes up and misses her father? Will she cry?

After leaving the house, Su Shengjing looked for Yang Fangping. “Director, can you lend me some money? I urgently need it.”
