“Lui, don’t do it please?”
Chu Lui’s eyebrows knitted tightly together, but his palm remained on her back, patting soothingly. “Go back to sleep. Don’t think too much. There are no risks in the operation. Trust me, it is 100-percent risk-free.” He did not understand why she was so adamant about him going for the operation.
The doctor had already said that everything would be fine.
He had explained it to her as best he could. Why was she dead set on disagreeing with him? Whenever she saw him now, that was all she has to say to him.
The man’s handsome features turned somber in the lightly lit room. He sighed softly as he felt himself wavered. However, when he thought of the little pale-faced girl, he felt suppressed. He closed his eyes. When he opened them again, they were filled with determination.
When did he become so indecisive?
He embraced Li Manni who had just fallen asleep. His fingers brushed against her face. Do you know? That child has eyes that resembled Yixuan when she was a little girl. I didn’t take good care of Yixuan. That’s why I must save this child.
He held Li Manni in his arm. With the other, he reached out to turn off the night light. He did not notice that Li Manni had opened her eyes. Her dazed look was gone. Instead, she was wide awake.
In the hospital, Xia Ruoxin lay on the hospital bed with her daughter in her arms. It was a small bed. Rainy squirmed in her arms, constantly blinking her eyes.
“Mommy, will the operation be painful?” She was playing with Xia Ruoxin’s hand. As she compared the differences, she wondered when she would grow up to be an adult. She wanted to be as beautiful as her mother.
“It won’t. It will be done when you wake up from your nap. Then, we can go home.” Xia Ruoxin comforted her daughter. She knew the girl was afraid. After all, she was still young. It was only natural that she was afraid.
“Mommy, after my hair grows long, you have to buy me lots and lots of hair clips with butterfly knots.” Rainy squeezed her little body into Xia Ruoxin’s arms as she pouted her lips.
She remembered everything so don’t lie to her.
“You’re such a big little girl.” Xia Ruoxin tucked her daughter’s body under the blanket. Rainy was only talkative when she was around Xia Ruoxin. She’s usually quieter when there are outsiders.
“You remember everything so clearly. No one can lie to you.” She pinched her daughter’s nose. That made Rainy smile as her eyes curved into a pair of crescents. She had one hand around Dolly and the other clutching Xia Ruoxin’s clothes.
The sky was getting dark outside. However, the light was warm when it shone into the hospital ward. It was turning into a second home for them.
In the Chu mansion, Li Manni was getting depressed. No matter what she said or how much she objected, Chu Lui was determined to go through with that operation. There was no room for negotiation.
“Madam, the food is getting cold. Aren’t you eating?” the maid asked, worried. What was happening to her? Recently, she did not have much appetite for anything. At times, she would sit in a dazed after only eating a few mouthfuls. It was happening now.
