Chapter 512 - Her Heart was Tough (1/2)
Chu Jiang's pair of jet-black eyes seemed extremely bloodshot at that moment.
He could not blame Song Wan for wanting to see the child so desperately that she simply threw away her dignity. She was already about to go blind from crying. They were only human; it was only natural for them to have emotions and desires. Originally, they had given up all hope and stopped thinking about having their own granddaughter. As for Song Wan, she treated her adoptive child extremely well, hoping to fill up the hole in her heart.
However, just as they managed to accept their situation—one day, somebody told them that they had a granddaughter. A blood-related granddaughter, a blood-related granddaughter!
How could they not be excited? How could they not lose their cool?
Not too far away, Chu Xiang hid behind the door, tears brimming for her eyes as if she already understood something.
Chu Jiang noticed Chu Xiang from afar but chose not to expose her.
As to what she would become in the future, he had no intentions to guess and barely bore any expectations towards it. All he wanted was just to meet his little granddaughter. It was just that he was too ashamed to see her.
Song Wan cried for a very long time. However, no matter how much she cried, she still could not get to meet her granddaughter. Even though she went daily to beg Xia Ruoxin, she had never met her granddaughter before. Little did she know the granddaughter that she longed to meet had been sent to Shen Wei's place a long time ago.
On a recent whim, Shen Wei had started to miss Rainy so she told Xia Ruoxin about it and brought the kid away on that day itself. Xia Ruoxin thought that it would be better to let her go. Recently, too many things were happening at home.
Perhaps it would be better for her to be at Shen Wei's place. Shen Wei wouldn't let Rainy go hungry, right?
Just at that moment, Shen Wei was holding a bowl of steamed eggs and feeding the little fellow.
”Does it taste good?” she asked, her gentle gaze washing away the desolation of her body. She did not have the vibes of a person born from low status. It was not because she refused to surrender to her environment; it was just an inborn sense of pride, of disdain.
”It does. The eggs that Aunty makes are the best.” Rainy narrowed her eyes in satisfaction. Her small mouth spoke words so sweet they could kill.
”You have such a sweet tongue.” Shen Wei pinched her small cheeks before feeding her another spoonful of eggs.
”Sister Wei, something is happening outside.” A young male stood respectfully outside the door. It seemed as if he was a little scared, hesitating before he spoke.
”Okay, I know.” Shen Wei stayed in place, continuing to feed Rainy steamed eggs. The steamed eggs were made personally by her. She had already forgotten how long it had been since she last cooked something. Moreover, it was rare for the little fellow to be so generous, finishing the bowl of eggs regardless of its taste.
After finishing the bowl of steamed eggs, she carried Rainy in her arms and walked in front of a door, knocking on it.
”Brother San,” she gently shouted.
After that, the door opened; and a black-haired male in his pajamas walked out.
The moment the man saw her, his cold hard expression softened. ”Wei, what's happening? Is there trouble outside? Leave it to me.” He went back into the room to change as he spoke.
”It's okay, I'll handle it.” Shen Wei dumped the child in her arms into his.
”Brother San, help me take care of this little thing. You know I can handle these things easily.” She fixed her clothes. At that moment, her face that smiled warmly before began to radiate a dark charm. She flipped her long wavy hair and then walked out. A woman could change very quickly if she wanted to. One second, she could be a loving mother; but in the next, she could become a demon.
