Chapter 321 - It will be Alright (2/2)

She bowed for a very long time as if unable to straighten up. Drops of tears would fall to the ground from time to time. The woman cried. She did not cry often, and she was a strong mother, but she was—in fact—a fragile woman, too.

”Okay, let's go home.” Gao Yi freed his hand and placed it on Xia Ruoxin's shoulders.

Xia Ruoxin straightened her body and nodded lightly. Everyone who saw it had reddened eyes and soaked eyelashes.

The three figures slowly walked further into the long corridor, leaving only vague shadows in the end.

The doctor smiled and blessed them. Don't come here anymore, really, don't come.

Gao Yi placed the items in his hands into the car and then put Rainy in the car. Xia Ruoxin looked at the hospital, dazed. It was just a few short months, but it felt more than a lifetime.

Hope, despair, despair and hope, again and again. She did not know how she had come so far, and this journey was too hard.

”Let's go home, Ruoxin.” Gao Yi stood behind her and reached a hand out to cover her eyes. ”Ruoxin. Don't think about the past anymore. It's all behind us now. You will be alright, too, trust me. You'll be better from now on.”

Xia Ruoxin could not see anything. She could only hear his pleasant voice in her ear. It was gentle, stable, and safe.

They would do better from now on.

She felt a warm pair of hands clasp on her shoulders. The warmth spread from her shoulders to her chest and then to her whole body.

”Will we really be alright?” She asked absentmindedly. Her eyes had seen too much suffering and did not believe in happiness anymore. She only wanted her daughter to live a better, happier life.

”Yes, believe me, it will,” Gao Yi said, his fingers grazing her eyebrows. Every inch of her body, including her heart, held a trace of pain. He would not ask her what she had gone through in the past. He would wait till the day she would tell him her past and her story.

”Yes, I believe. The heavens are fair. He gave me a cute daughter, and he gave my daughter a second life. He did not let us down.” Xia Ruoxin narrowed her eyes. She had never been defeated by life because that was what she was, a woman who looked weak but actually had a strong heart.

”Silly woman, you would be happy in the future, too.” Gao Yi's eyes flashed with a dull heartache. He opened the car door and pushed her in the car. ”Alright, Rainy's waited a long time for us. Don't make her wait too long.” However, he just looked at the little girl and sighed helplessly once he finished saying.

She was in no hurry, for the little one was playing with the doll happily. However, the doll was not as lovely as she was.

He closed the door and entered the car. The engine started. They were going home.

The hospital behind them became further and further away. It was really like the first half of one's life. Once gone, don't ever come back.
