Chapter 459 - Like You
However, Li Manni failed to remember that some things were simply unforgivable; and no amount of apology would be able to bury the hatchet.
Xia Ruoxin tidied her daughter’s soft hair and put on her little hat.
Was Rainy really going? Xia Ruoxin reached out and held her daughter’s face with both hands. “It’s so cold today. Are you sure about going?”
“Mm, hmm.” Rainy nodded her little head emphatically. “Mommy, I want to go to school and learn a lot of things. I want to buy Mommy a big house and lots of Dollys.” She made a huge circle in front of her with her tiny hands.
Xia Ruoxin had not expected that Rainy, at her tender age, would want to go to school with an ambition which was to buy her lots and lots of dolls.
She took out a small mask from her pocket and put it on her daughter. Then, she took Rainy’s hand and made their way to the kindergarten after which she would go to work, too. If Rainy didn’t go to school, she would bring her along with her to the art studio. Everyone there would welcome Rainy because she was obedient and wouldn’t make a fuss.
“Mommy, carry me.” Xia Ruoxin bent down at her waist and scooped her daughter up. Rainy was wearing so many layers of clothing that she resembled a bear cub. In her chubby frame, Xia Ruoxin was having difficulty carrying her.
Xia Ruoxin could feel the tightness in her chest. She rested her chin on top of her daughter’s head. Then, she raised her eyes and looked at Chu Lui’s face. She wouldn’t allow her fears to be detected by Chu Lui.
“Mr. Chu, you can stop with your compliments.” She laughed sarcastically. “I am an infertile woman. Remember? Are you telling me that I am raising someone else’s child to look like me?”
“It’s not what I meant.” Chu Lui was at a loss for words at her retort.
