Chapter 696: Is it Expired?

“Uncle knows it’s ticklish, but just bear with it.” He squeezed his daughter’s small face.

His fingers did not touch the back of his daughter’s foot, but he squeezed her ankle. As expected, Rainy was no longer ticklish so she did not laugh; and her feet did not move.

The Chu family’s leg could not be touched and moved by others; it would be like plucking fur from a tiger, and Rainy was not an exception. However, location mattered. As long as it was not the bottom of the feet or the toes, it was fine.

Rainy smiled until her eyes became shaped like a crescent, and Chu Lui touched her small nose.

“Laughing so happily.”

“Yes.” Rainy sucked her thumb. “Baby won’t tell Uncle.”

“Fine, Uncle will let you keep a small secret.” Even though Chu Lui said that, he felt a pang of regret in his heart. His daughter had already grown to a slightly reserved age, and he had missed the most important three years of his daughter’s life. However, he knew that—in the future—every single day of his daughter’s growth, her birthday... every little secret; he would not miss it for the world.

After they were done washing their feet, Chu Lui carried his daughter and brought her to sleep.

Rainy was already rubbing her eyes, and she was obviously falling asleep.

However, she stretched out her hand.

“What do you want?”

Chu Lui did not understand.

Rainy squeezed her small fingers.

“Uncle, Rainy wants to drink milk.”

Knock, knock. Chu Lui knocked on Xia Ruoxin’s door. Xia Ruoxin opened the door and was coincidentally holding a milk bottle.

“The fellow wants to drink milk.” Chu Lui’s gaze landed on Xia Ruoxin. At this moment, she was wearing white pajamas that were not as white as her skin. Even though she was skinny, her originally pearly white skin was exactly the same as what the ancient people had described: crystal jade skin. The warm lighting from inside the house had landed perfectly on her body, shining as if it was light reflected from a ruby. She had a pair of beautiful eyes and a palm-sized face. Together with her sharp chin, it exuded a warm glow and beautiful outlook.

At that time, she was shaking the milk bottle and placing it on her face to test the temperature. The collar of her pajamas opened a little to reveal her defined collarbone.

Chu Lui did not know how beautifully sculpted this woman could get. He was once so mesmerized with her. He had tons of women before, but none of them could leave him with such surprise and memories as if he could get addicted to it.

In the past, he thought that one day he would get tired of her feelings and her body; but he only realized now that there was only this woman that could seduce the inner beast in him.

At that time, his throat was dry; and his heart was pumping wildly. He had not touched women in a long time and did not have desires to the point where he thought he had lost a man’s urge as well as his potency.

However, he was wrong. It turned out he did not lose it, and he still had it.

It was just that he had not met the right person.

“For you.” Xia Ruoxin placed the milk bottle in front of Chu Lui’s face.

After quite some time, Chu Lui then reacted. His facial expression was still as usual with an emotionless exterior. No matter what he was enduring on the inside, his face could always perfectly hide his thoughts and desires.

The moment Chu Lui took the milk bottle, Xia Ruoxin slammed the door shut. She was really ruthless.

He shook his head and brought the bottle back into his house where Rainy was already fast asleep. Chu Lui thought she would not want to drink the milk anymore, but the kid still extended her hand.

“I want to drink milk.”

Chu Lui placed the bottle in her small hands, and the kid held the milk bottle tight and closed her eyes to drink it.

Chu Lui knew that Rainy did not really like to drink milk powder because she did not do so when she was young. Once he thought that his daughter grew up on rice cereal, his heart would hurt.

It was okay; he gently caressed his daughter’s cheeks.

“In the future, Daddy will let you drink milk powder for the rest of your life.”

Luckily, no one heard what he said; if not, Chu Lui would be thought to be an idiot.

Knock, knock. He knocked again.

Xia Ruoxin came out. She was not asleep, but she did not like being disturbed by her new neighbor.

“What’s the matter?” She stood at the door and asked lightly.

“May I ask... do you have more milk?”

Chu Lui slightly separated his lips and broke into a smile; small but genuine.

Xia Ruoxin knitted her brows. “Wait here.”

She walked into the kitchen and did not let Chu Lui in. Chu Lui stood outside obediently and did not go in as he wished. He had to stick to Xia Ruoxin’s bottom line; if not, he would be the one suffering.

In a flash, Xia Ruoxin came out and passed him a cup of milk.

After being given four years of poisonous coffee by Li Manni, he did not want to touch that liquid anymore so he changed from coffee to milk. He had to drink one cup every day so that he could sleep well at night with no nightmares about his terrible past.

“Thank you.” He took the milk and drank while standing outside.

It was just that... why did this milk taste weird?

“Is it expired?” Actually, he had no other intentions and was just asking casually. Even if Xia Ruoxin said that it was expired, he would drink every single drop of it. It was only expired; it would not kill him.

“No.” Xia Ruoxin touched her fringe, and her gaze landed on Chu Lui’s cup. Even though Chu Lui felt that something was not right, he continued drinking.

“That is...” Chu Lui drank another mouth.

“Your daughter’s milk powder.” Once she said it, Xia Ruoxin slammed the door shut.

Chu Lui brought the cup to his eye level and shook his head in the end. He still placed the cup beside his mouth and drank it as he walked. This taste was indeed pretty strange.

That night, he actually did not get much sleep. It was his first night with his daughter so he was afraid that he would not sleep properly and would crush the child or kick her blanket away.

Hence, he almost opened his eyes for the entire night and allowed them to become bloodshot. Even though he did not sleep a wink, he was not tired at all.

Rainy rubbed her eyes and sat up straight in a daze. She crawled and crawled until she reached Chu Lui’s body and then came down again. Her hand grabbed in front, and she lay on Chu Lui’s chest to continue sleeping.

Chu Lui was frightened to the point where he did not dare to move. He only carefully pulled the blanket over his daughter once he was sure that she was fast asleep.

“Mommy, I don’t want to go to school.” She rubbed her eyes that were still blurred as she thought that her mother was waking her up for school.

“You don’t need to go to school. It’s the weekend.” Chu Lui ruffled his daughter’s hair and hugged her in his embrace. She had a faint smell of milk.

This was a child, his child. He really felt that he could give up everything—his career, his office... even his life—just for the child.
