Chapter 717 - Some things She had to Pull Through Herself
Then, he stood up and held Xia Ruoxin’s shoulders. “Ruoxin, let her sleep peacefully. Let’s not disturb her and just watch from here, okay? There are some things that she had to pull through on her own like pain, fear, and things that she would find out in the near future but not now.”
Xia Ruoxin shuddered before placing her daughter down carefully and putting the blanket on her. However, she did not leave the bed. When she turned around, she saw that Chu Lui was still standing; and his eyes were bloodshot. One could tell that he did not sleep for the past few days. Actually, she knew that Chu Lui would put some sort of sleeping pill into her meal every day while he had not slept at all and was watching over his daughter. Perhaps in the past, she thought that Chu Lui was not a good father, but now she knew that he was all along.
“Thank you.” She smiled at him; the smile was genuine.
She thanked him for tirelessly taking care of Rainy. If he was not here and she was alone, she definitely would not have pulled through.
“It’s my fault. I did wrong.” Chu Lui moved his hand to her hair and let her lean on himself. “I didn’t let you guys have a good life, and I did not do my responsibility as a father. I didn’t save her the last time, and this time, my mom…”
When he spoke until here, he could not continue anymore. This kind of mistake, this sick twist of fate, this ending… up till now, they still could not accept and could not forgive it.
“It’s not your fault.” Xia Ruoxin understood that whatever Song Wan did was behind Chu Lui and Chu Jiang’s back. Even though Chu Lui was not a good person, he would not have done something like this. Like what he said—if it really reached that stage, he would rather donate his own kidney than steal other people’s so it would be unfair to blame this incident on him and his father.
Hence, she did not blame them; but she did not want to see Song Wan ever again.
