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 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.
