Chapter 385 - Bring Things to an End (1/2)

She was in a daze for a while and then reacted. The doll was missing, and so Rainy must have woken up by herself.

She massaged between her brows. She felt like she had become decadent. She woke up when it was already so late. She wasn't that tired and only slept and ate at home, but she still didn't wake up early.

When she finished washing up and went out, there was a note on the table like she expected. She took the paper and looked at the lively and neat handwriting. Handwriting reflected a person, and the man's easygoing nature was evident between the lines.

”I'm bringing Rainy out for a walk.”

Xia Ruoxin smiled comfortably and placed the note back. She entered the kitchen to prepare a pumpkin porridge for the father and daughter.

Hold on.

Father and daughter. Her expression became conflicted. She was starting to let her imagination run wild again. Hold it. She shook her head and started to cook the rice.

When Gao Yi and Rainy returned, they could smell the fragrance of the porridge as they walked in.

Rainy sniffed the air. ”Mommy's food is the most delicious,” she said and dashed into the kitchen, hugging Xia Ruoxin's legs. She looked up and rubbed her cheeks against her legs. ”Mommy smells good.”

”Cheeky brat.” Xia Ruoxin poked her forehead. ”Where did you learn that sweet talk from?”

Rainy laughed heartily, seeming really elated.

Soon, Xia Ruoxin placed all the dishes on the table. They really resembled a family now.

A sophisticated father, a gentle and loving mother, and a beautiful and cute angel.

They were eating when suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

Who could it be at this time?

Xia Ruoxin put down her chopsticks and went to open the door. When she saw the person outside, her cheerful expression instantly became cold. She closed the door behind her.

”Mr. Xia. What can I do for you?”

Her voice was distant and cold. It was a tone that she wouldn't even use for strangers as she would at least greet a stranger with a smile.

Xia Mingzheng's face was burning.

He had never lowered himself and begged anyone in his life, but he did this time. Their whole family owed her a lot, after all.

”Ruoxin, your mother is really sick, and she wants to see you. No matter what, she did give birth to you.”

Xia Mingzhen brought it up again—not because he was shameless, but because his wife was on the verge of a mental breakdown. She had been this way ever since Xia Yixuan returned.

Xia Ruoxin pressed her lips tightly together. She told him she wasn't willing to. She turned around, twisted the doorknob, and walked in. The door closed with a thud and locked the man outside. It was impossible so he shouldn't have gone the extra mile.

Rainy tilted her head strangely.

”Mommy, black face.”

She pointed at her own cheeks. She could sense her mother's bad mood.
