Chapter 508 - Meat is Raw (2/2)
With this, would she still continue denying the truth?
It was only after he entered his car that he removed the test results given by the doctor from his embrace.
He carefully opened the doc.u.ment, looking down at it. The moment he saw the test results, his tightly pressed lips relaxed and began to slowly curve upwards. In that instant, a teardrop—that wasn't supposed to appear—seemingly flashed across his cold, ruthless eyes.
In actual fact, Chu Lui was a man who never cried.
He placed the doc.u.ments on the other side of the car. He felt as if he had crossed over from winter to autumn, the scary feeling of extreme suppression dissipating.

Xia Ruoxin ate her food unappetizingly, looking up from time to time to watch her daughter feed herself with a spoon. This child did not want to be fed anymore; she liked to do things herself.
”Mommy, are you thinking about eating Rainy's food?” Rainy raised her head and pushed her bowl forward. ”Mommy can have my food. Rainy is full.” She generously shared her food with her mother.
Gao Yi tousled Rainy's hair. ”What your mother wants to eat isn't your food but you, Rainy.”
Hearing this, Rainy immediately wrinkled up her face. ”But Rainy's meat doesn't taste good, and it's raw.”
Xia Ruoxin was bewildered by her daughter's innocence; she didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. How could she eat meat? What was her daughter thinking about every day? Did she see her own mother as a monster?
Gao Yi could not restrain his laughter. ”Then you should let your mother eat her food so she that she will be full. Then, she won't think about eating Rainy's meat anymore.” He pinched Rainy's tender cheeks as he spoke. Her cheeks were so tender it seemed as if he could pinch some water out of them. What a cute kid.
However, his expression unknowingly darkened. He understood Ruoxin's troubles, and he knew that it was an issue they had to face sooner or later.
”Ruoxin, don't worry. He might not necessarily want Rainy, right?” He placed his hands on top of Xia Ruoxin's hands that were on the table. Her cold fingers proved that she was still unnerved by the incident.
”Yeah.” Xia Ruoxin agreed. It was just that for some reason she kept feeling a sense of uneasiness. That man would always get what he wanted by hook or by crook. If he—who had no children of his own—wanted to take Rainy away from her, what was she going to do?
Rainy climbed onto her mother's lap. ”Mommy, quick, eat food! Rainy has no meat. I don't taste good.”
Xia Ruoxin simply hugged the child in her arms and rested her chin on top of her daughter's head. Alright, I'll eat first, when my stomach is full, I'll have the strength to protect my daughter.
Gao Yi put down his chopsticks. Now, it was Xia Ruoxin's turn to eat, but somehow, he no longer had any appetite.
Perhaps their peaceful life was really about to face a great storm.
