Chapter 797: She did not Like Granny, Too

“Is she okay?” He grabbed his hair. He did not even know how he came here; once he heard that his daughter was in the hospital, he was scared until he broke into cold sweat.

Xia Ruoxin pulled a face.

“If there was something wrong, you wouldn’t get to see her.”

Chu Lui hurriedly came over and wanted to hug his daughter, but Xia Ruoxin avoided his hands.

“Can’t your Chu family leave my daughter further away?”

Chu Lui frowned, and his hands were still in the air. He went forward, squatted down, and stared straight into Xia Ruoxin’s furious eyes. Suddenly, he felt something, something that stabbed his heart.

He had already tried so hard. Why was it not enough? It was clearly almost going to be okay, so close. What exactly was it that made them go back to square one? At that time, he had clearly seen hope in them.

“Ruoxin...” There was slight, unbearable hoarseness in his voice. “Let’s not talk about that. How do you think you can bring Rainy back with just one arm?” Chu Lui extended his hand again, and Xia Ruoxin did not stop him this time.

Xia Ruoxin lowered her head, and what exuded from her gaze was helplessness. She was very useless now and could not even protect her own daughter or carry her.

Chu Lui picked Rainy up carefully, and the body in his arms was very weak. The pair of hands was currently wrapped like small carrots. Even though he did not know how serious his daughter’s injury was—judging from her knitted brows and her pale expression, he knew that the child was hurting.

He pressed his daughter’s face against his chest and used his jacket to wrap her up.

Gently, he lowered his forehead to touch his daughter’s. “Rainy, tell Daddy. How can you grow up safely?” They were different from average parents. In his whole life, he only had this one daughter. He was infertile, and so was Xia Ruoxin; the physician had already said that the gold island incident had harmed Xia Ruoxin’s body so it would be hard for her to conceive. Moreover, he did not think that he would be generous enough to let her have kids with someone else.

Their only daughter had met with lots of troubles since birth. She was only four now, but she had already gone through two major surgeries.

He was really afraid if the child met with any more mishaps, his whole family would be doomed.

“Let’s go.” He carried his daughter and extended one hand to Xia Ruoxin. “Ruoxin, let’s go home.”

Xia Ruoxin only stared at his hand lightly, without caring about it.

Chu Lui could only retract his hand and use both his hands to hug his daughter’s body tightly.

Both of them sat in the car, speechless. Even when Chu Lui opened his mouth a few times, Xia Ruoxin ignored him completely and ended with him being awkward and unbearable.

After he sent them home, he did not leave and stayed in Xia Ruoxin’s living room.

Xia Ruoxin pulled a long face. “Wait all you want.”

When Rainy woke up and saw that her mother was asleep, she climbed down the bed, opened the door, and went outside. Then, she saw Chu Lui sitting on the couch.

“Daddy...” She ran over and climbed onto the couch carefully.

Chu Lui opened his eyes, sat up, and hugged his daughter in his arms.

“Baby, tell Daddy, does it still hurt?” He pulled his daughter’s hands over and noticed that her two fists were still wrapped. Just that he did not know what happened. He had asked the doctor, but he said that it was okay, and that it was normal for children to be clumsy. Just that, was it really normal? His daughter had already undergone two surgeries and had one less kidney than other children. Could someone tell him: was this really normal?

Rainy waved her fists, shook her head with all her might, and broke into a smile at Chu Lui. “Daddy, Rainy is not in pain at all.”

“Did Mommy and Daddy quarrel?” Rainy asked sensitively.

“No.” Chu Lui hugged his daughter and poked her cheeks. “Are you hungry? Do you want Daddy to cook noodles for you?”

“Okay.” Rainy leaned her head against her father’s shoulders.

“Daddy...”

“Mm?” Chu Lui answered.

“Does Granny hate Rainy?”

Chu Lui stopped in his tracks. He wanted to tell her ‘no’, but in the end, he realized that he could not even utter a word. A child’s mindset was very simple and directly expressed their feelings, but her sensitivity was actually much sharper than adults.

“Granny will like Rainy in the future.” He ruffled his daughter’s hair. ‘In the future’ was a bit long, and even he did not know how long it would take.

In the past, he only knew that men would be stuck in between his wife and his mother, and so they would not have a good life. However, he had never expected that he would be stuck in between four women one day.

It was the three most important people of his life and an outsider that should not even appear between them.

His mother, his ex-wife, his daughter, and a daughter that he adopted.

Rainy blinked her big, round eyes.

She lowered her head and looked at her wrapped up fists.

“Don’t be scared.” She pouted. If Granny did not like her, she would not like Granny either; not every kid had a granny anyway.

Chu Lui ruffled his daughter’s hair and had no idea that his daughter could remember things much better than he imagined. Of course, she had her own thinking towards good and evil.

He walked into the kitchen and put his daughter down before taking out the noodles from the fridge, instead of instant noodles. In the past, he would never have entered the kitchen; not because he was lazy, but because he was frustrated. Every time he entered the kitchen, it was like going to war with plates falling and bowls breaking.

All the culinary skills he had now were learned from the old couple overseas, after saving Xia Ruoxin. Even though it might not be very good—at the very least, he would not break plates and could cook up a decent bowl of noodles.

Rainy stood at the side the whole time and used her hands to grab his clothes, just like a small worm that followed behind him. His daughter’s dependence on him gave him a small comfort in Chu Lui’s heart.

Luckily, his daughter did not remember the bad about him.

Yes, his daughter did not remember the bad about her father, but that did not mean that she would forget the ones of others.
