211 Unless (2/2)

Rainy thought for a while before lowering her head to eat the candy from Xia Ruoxin's hand. Sweetness spread in her mouth, prompting her to finally smile. That was all she needed—a candy, her mother, and Dolly.

With her two little hands hugging tightly onto that doll, her childish face finally smiled. As her eyes closed, she fell asleep sprawled in Xia Ruoxin's arms.

Xia Ruoxin held onto her daughter carefully. A cloud of tears had caused the view before her to turn hazy.

The doctor had been asking about the hospitalization fees again. However, she did not know how she could come up with such a huge sum of money. No matter what kind of work she chose, there was no way she could come up with the money in such a short span of time.

Unless she resorted to robbing or stealing. Unless…

The look in her eyes darkened while she caressed her daughter's head. The corner of her lips began to purse helplessly.

”Rainy, Mommy is willing to do anything for you.”

”Anything.”

She put her daughter down but realized that Rainy was clutching tightly onto the corner of her blouse. Perhaps, she was afraid that she would leave her again. So, she held on with her dear life even in her sleep.

Xia Ruoxin hardened herself and pulled her daughter's hand away gently. They had never been apart since she was born. This was the first time, and it wouldn't be the last.

”Rainy, trust Mommy. I will definitely make you better.”

”You don't have a father or a grandmother… but you have a mother who loves you with everything. How could I let you die?”

She stood up. However, she was reluctant to leave the moment she saw Rainy tossed and turned in her bed. There was no other way.

She needed money. Lots and lots of money.
