Chapter 787: Mommy’s Back
She was still conflicted. Her conflict had not been resolved, and Chu Lui knew it very well. Rainy’s kidney that could never be returned was lost by the Chu family. She had forgiven Chu Lui, but she did not forgive the Chu family and Song Wan.
At this time, Su Yunfei was feeding Rainy fruits. This kid had been eating quite well recently; she had grown bigger, taller, and even chubbier. She was white and soft—a true beauty.
“Is it nice?” She asked Rainy and could not help it but pinched her cheeks. She sighed in her heart. How could there be such a pretty child? Everyone said that when the child was beautiful at young, she would be ugly when she grew up; was that true? However, it might not be so. Just looking at this face—no matter how old she became, she would never be ugly.
There was a series of knocks on the door, but Su Yunfei did not pay any attention to it as she thought her husband had returned. When her husband came back home, he would fight with her for the child; and she was very unwilling.
Now, she really hoped that her husband would stay out and not come home, so that no one would fight with her for the child. Then, she could hug the cute kid all day long. Just thinking about that made her happy.
The nanny went to open the door and was surprised to see Chu Lui standing outside.
Did Mr. Chu go out? He had not returned in months.
“Who came?” Su Yunfei gave Rainy a piece of apple. Rainy’s mouth kept moving, and her cheeks were filled just like a small squirrel. She would not reject what came and would eat whatever one gave.
“Madam, it’s Mr. Chu.”
The helper closed the door and answered.
“Oh, Brother-in-law is here.” Su Yunfei fed another piece to Rainy. “Behave and eat more apples. You’ll become prettier when you eat more.”
“Mm, Rainy will eat the apples obediently.” Rainy nodded readily and ate another slice.
Su Yunfei was not worried about Chu Jiang at all as he would come every day. However, he could only talk to Rainy for a while and could not bring her away.
There was still a time bomb at home, waiting for him.
However, ever since Song Wan had said those words, she did not dare to step foot here again. That was good; she would not have any troubles if she did not even see her.
Rainy’s mouth was filled with food, and when she saw the person that came, her eyes widened. She jumped down the couch and ran over.
“Daddy…”
This word made the bowl in Su Yunfei’s hands drop to the floor.
This was truly the one who came to s.n.a.t.c.h the child.
Chu Lui bent down and carried his daughter, hugging her small self close to him.
He had not seen his daughter in months. She was still okay. Yes, she grew bigger, whiter, chubbier, and—of course—prettier.
“Daddy, did you bring Rainy’s Mommy home?”
Rainy grabbed Chu Lui’s clothes and asked softly.
Chu Lui extended his hand and pinched his daughter’s face.
“Daddy will definitely deliver what he promised, baby. Daddy had brought back Rainy’s Mommy that had got lost. She’s waiting for you at home.”
“Thank you, Daddy.” Once Rainy heard that her mother was back, she hugged Chu Lui’s neck in excitement.
Su Yunfei, who was standing aside, heaved a sigh of relief.
Forget it, it was better that the family was reunited. Even though she could not bear to leave the child, the child must have a mother. A child without a mother was just like gra.s.s that could be bullied by anyone.
It was great that she was back.
Lin Qing, who was writing homework at a corner, dropped his pen on the floor. He bent down to pick up his pen slowly and tried hard to break it.
…
The door outside rang.
Hurriedly, Xia Ruoxin stood up and used her right hand to arrange her hair. She did not know if Rainy had returned, would she still recognize her in that look? She was as thin as a ghost, and even though her hair did not look like it was bitten off by a dog, it was still short.
She ran over and placed her hand on the doork.n.o.b, but for some reason, she did not know how to open it.
When her hand moved, her heart started beating rapidly.
Finally, the door was open.
Rainy stood outside and raised her head. The moment she saw Xia Ruoxin, her beautiful eyes turned into crescent moons.
“Mommy, hug, hug.” She extended her hands and let her mother carry her.
Xia Ruoxin squatted down and used one hand to carry her daughter. Just like the past, she used one hand to support her daughter, her life and her everything.
“Mommy, Rainy missed Mommy.” Rainy sniffed, and her small arms circled her mother’s neck tightly.
“Did Mommy go out to earn money?”
“Yes, I did.” Xia Ruoxin held back the pain in her heart as she turned around to wipe her tears secretly. “Mommy went to earn money. I had found a lot of gold that can be made into a few gold bars. Mommy earned a lot of money and can buy many toys for Rainy.”
“Thank you, Mommy.” Rainy leaned her head on her mother’s shoulders and sucked her pinkie before biting it. “But Mommy, Rainy doesn’t want any dolly. Rainy just wants Mommy.”
“Okay, we don’t want more dollies anymore. Mommy will not leave again.” Xia Ruoxin hugged her daughter even tighter. She promised her. She promised that she would not leave her daughter for the rest of her life.
Rainy was still young, and she did not know how close her mother sc.r.a.ped past death before she could return home… how much she had suffered before she could see her one more time.
This scene was actually separated by close to eight months.
Xia Ruoxin covered her daughter with the blanket.
“She grew bigger?”
“Mm.” Chu Lui sat down. “She did grow bigger. When I left, she was still much smaller than this. She had grown up so fast. Her clothes and shoes had become too small, and her face had become rounder.”
“Thank you.” Xia Ruoxin was most worried about her daughter, but she knew that this man would take good care of her daughter, no matter if she was here or not.
“She’s also my daughter.” Chu Lui reached his hand out and placed it on Xia Ruoxin’s shoulders. “You should sleep, too; you just got off the plane. Let’s go out at night. I’ll call Jingtang out, and we can celebrate our close call.”
“Okay.” Xia Ruoxin wanted to sleep, too. She blinked for a while, and after Chu Lui left, she then lay down beside her daughter and slept. When Chu Lui came back in, he saw the old and the young leaning their head against each other and sleeping. The mother and daughter really looked very similar and had beautiful features with long lashes. He walked over gently and sat beside them.
