Chapter 496 - She was Beaten (2/2)
Actually, children were easily contented. Take Rainy for example. She didn't remember much or bear grudges. Her heart wasn't very big so it couldn't fit too many things.
What it could fit now was that piece of chocolate in her pocket.
Gao Yi came to pick her up after school. He left with her in his arms. They walked past Chu Lui's car, and Gao Yi paused in his steps. They had met each other again. What were the chances?
He pressed Rainy's face into his chest, turned around, and walked in the opposite direction.
Chu Lui was here to pick Chu Xiang up. The moment she got into the car, she sat obediently. However, she didn't dare to speak.
”How was school today?” Chu Lui didn't really know how to get along with children. There weren't many feelings cultivated towards this easily gained daughter. However, he had exercised more patience towards her than anyone else.
”Mmm, very well.” Chu Xiang played with her fingers and sneaked a peek at Chu Lui. His eyes were pinned straight ahead, and there wasn't much expression on his face. Chu Xiang was still afraid of this father. Although he treated her well, he wasn't fond of talking; and he always had a stern expression which caused her fear.
The moment Song Wan saw her granddaughter when the little girl was back home, she greeted her with endearment and proceeded to help Chu Xiang change her clothes. After that, she even brought snacks for the girl.
”Granny, I want to take part in the drawing competition. I will definitely come in first.”
Chu Xiang clenched her hands in balls of fists. She knew she had to be outstanding. Her father would like her, and her grandmother would be happy once she had achieved that.
”Of course. Xiang Xiang will definitely come in first.” Song Wan carried Chu Xiang. As she looked at the girl, she marveled at her choice. She had chosen such an intelligent and obedient child.
Chu Lui sat by the side as he flipped through the magazine with his legs crossed. He was in his own world where no one could enter or reach him.
Meanwhile, in another family…
It was a very normal household. It was decorated simply with minimal furniture. There was a peaceful atmosphere within the house.
The rose-purple curtain fluttered by the window as the wind blew constantly. A few mini pots of inexpensive-looking orchids with leafy, green leaves sat on the window sill. A purple flowery tablecloth covered the face of the table. In the middle of it was a flower vase with a few beautifully-colored artificial flowers. They were lightly-scented and gave the house a nice fragrance.
Four dishes and soup were placed on the table. One of them was a delicious-looking sweet and sour fish. One could vaguely see the smoke still coming from it.
”Mommy, we are back.” Before the door opened, she could hear Rainy's voice booming from the outside.
Gao Yi opened the door. He entered, opened the shoe cabinet, and took out their slippers. However, his stomach was already growling.
”Daddy, I'm hungry.” Rainy ran her hand over her stomach, wanting to eat.
”Okay. I'm hungry, too.” Gao Yi carried her to the bathroom. Both of them washed their hands before they started eating. The three of them took food and fed each other. Their meal might not consist of any delicacies, but they had an enjoyable time.
