Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

“Let’s go eat noodles.” Chu Lui pinched his daughter’s cheeks, carried her, and walked out with a bowl in his other hand.

Actually, he was not that hungry, but he wanted to munch on something.

He ate one mouthful, followed by Rainy; and soon, the father and daughter finished the bowl of noodles and even drank all the soup up. Chu Lui had eaten countless delicacies, and of course, he would be very picky about his food. He had never cooked his own bowl of decent noodles like this before.

When they were done eating, he then hugged his daughter to sleep. Both of them were squeezed on the couch, but this big man used his body to create a safe space for his daughter to sleep in.

In this place, there was no wind or rain, no pain or hurt.

When Xia Ruoxin woke up, she saw the father and daughter sleeping on the couch. At this time, the big head and small head were leaned against each other; and even though they did not look too alike, their expression was similar. They both had a big forehead and lips that did not like to smile much; and when their eyes were open, they were deep blue that shone brightly.

She walked forward, extended her hand, and wanted to carry her daughter away; but once she saw Chu Lui’s hands on the blanket, she gave up. Then, she went into the room to take a blanket and covered Chu Lui with it before walking back into her own room. However, she did not know that Chu Lui was already awake the moment she opened the door.

He lowered his head and placed his big palm on his daughter’s face.

“Baby, your Mommy is still your Mommy. No matter what she says, she can’t deny that she was still as soft-hearted as she was last time.”

He gently patted his daughter’s shoulders. This small kid was already his everything. He could give up all that he had, just for his daughter to live on peacefully and healthily.

In the Chu family, Song Wan had already woken up for the umpteenth time.

It was the weekend, and Chu Lui was supposed to go home to eat. However, this time, he did not.

When Chu Lui and Li Manni were married for over four years, no matter how Li Manni was like, at the very least; Chu Lui would return home to eat every weekend. However, ever since he had something to do with Xia Ruoxin again, he had not returned home in a long time.

She had discomfort that came from her son being stolen. This kind of discomfort had already seeded and grown in her heart from a long time ago and started to twist her heart that was originally kind.

“What’s wrong with you?” Chu Jiang sat up and could no longer tolerate Song Wan’s waking up from time to time.

“What can I do?” After hearing Chu Jiang’s scolding, it made Song Wan’s bad mood fire up in no time and explode like a grenade.

“Your son did not come back at night. He has a woman and does not want us anymore… or Xiang Xiang. With this kind of son, what kind of father are you?” Once she talked about this, Song Wan was as if a machine gun and was going to shoot Chu Jiang to death.

Chu Jiang used the blanket to cover himself up and continued to sleep.

“Your son is already thirty years old; he’s not three. What’s the matter if he comes back or not? Do you mean that you won’t eat if he doesn’t come back? Also, what’s wrong with that woman? That woman had given birth to your one and only grandchild.”

Song Wan frowned. She wanted to say she did not care for it, but she had no guts to say it in front of Chu Jiang.

Yes, she did not care for it. However, someone did, like Chu Jiang. He doted on the granddaughter to death, but it was also because of this child that his relationship with his wife had become sour.

Chu Jiang opened his eyes. “I advise you to find a place and send Chu Xiang over.”

He was saying good advice as Chu Xiang was already a terrible time bomb in their house.

“Why must we send Xiang Xiang away?” Once Song Wan heard that Chu Xiang was being sent away, she sat up immediately in fright. This was her grandchild, the granddaughter that she had raised for close to two years. How could she just send her away like that?

“Ah Lui doesn’t like her; don’t you know?”

Chu Jiang opened his eyes and sat up as well. At this time, there were no smiling intentions on his face; and one could even hear the coldness in his voice.

“Also,” he continued.

“I don’t like her.”

Yes, only Song Wan liked this child with a dubious background, but Chu Lui had never liked this child; so did Chu Jiang. If this child behaved well and was obedient, no one cared if there was an extra person in the household or if this child followed the Chu’s last name and spent the rest of her days just like a princess.

However, whatever Chu Xiang did, she should never, ever have taken the kidney from the child that meant the world to the Chu family. Even though it was not her fault, she could not deny that everything was because of her.

Every time he saw this child, he would remember that this child did not only take away Rainy’s life but also Rainy’s identity and her kidney.

He could not convince himself to be good to Chu Xiang and to treat Chu Xiang like her own; he could not do it at all.

It was the first time that Song Wan heard Chu Jiang bluntly say that he did not like Chu Xiang at all. Obviously, she could not accept it.

Chu Xiang was brought up by her personally and was also her choice. If she sent Chu Xiang away, it would be akin to admitting that she failed. She could not accept such a failure and would not let Xia Ruoxin marry into their family.

She pulled up the blankets to lie down, but Chu Jiang was afraid that she would not be able to sleep the whole night. However, they did not know that there was a small gap in the door; and Chu Xiang had already run into her own room.

She hugged the dolly that she just bought on the bed and curled herself into a ball under the blanket.

Grandpa said he wanted to send her away, just like a dog with no one’s love or care. If she was sent back to the welfare home again, would she have to go through the days of not eating full, wearing uncomfortable clothes, and getting bullied by people?

In the future, these dolls, these good food and beautiful clothes… would no longer be hers anymore. It would be that sister’s; they wanted to fetch that sister back home… and chase her out.

She bit her blanket tightly, and it was her first time being so afraid.

No, she did not want to. She shook her head. She did not want to go back to the welfare home. She was her granny’s granddaughter; she had a father and her father was Chu Lui. He had a big company, and she was the princess of the Chu family. In school, she was the envy of everyone; she did not want to be set away and did not want that sister to come back home.

How good would it be if only they did not have that sister.
