Chapter 548 - Whose House (2/2)

Furthermore, the person he was afraid of was not anyone else but his own daughter.

He tightly clenched the hands by his side, a layer of perspiration forming in the palm of his hands.

He walked in and was just about to smile when he remembered what other people had told him. They said that he looked scarier smiling than crying and that his smile could scare children. That's why he forced that expression out of his face.

Rainy lowered her head and played with Du Jingtang's fingers. The side of her face slightly resembled Chu Lui's, especially that calm look on her face. It looked exactly like Chu Lui when he was deep in thought.

”Alright, let's sit down and eat first.”

Chu Jiang stood up, reaching out his hands to carry over the child in Du Jingtang's embrace.

Du Jingtang pouted. Could he let him hug her? He hadn't seen his little cutie in a long time, please?

However, he couldn't disregard Chu Jiang's hands that were placed in front of him. He had no choice but to hand over the little figure that he only got to hug for a while.

Chu Jiang walked in front of Chu Lui. He carried the child in one hand and placed his other free hand on his son's shoulder.

”Don't lose hope. Rainy is the Chu family's child. Her character and everything is just like you. As long as you treat her well, she will feel it. I also spent the past few months trying to get closer to her. Even your mother, she…”

After speaking till here, he didn't continue his sentence. Song Wan getting closer to her granddaughter wasn't going to be an easy feat. Rainy, this child, had a rather eccentric character. It wasn't easy to change the things that she had decided on.

”Dad, I know.” Chu Lui let out a dismal smile. What could have tortured this spirited, unrelenting man until he became like this? Whether it was time or something else, it was already impossible to find out.

Chu Jiang carried his granddaughter and sat down. Du Jingtang helped Rainy grab some food from time to time. As long as it was fed to her, Rainy would always give people some face and eat the food scrumptiously. In short, she was not a picky eater. However, just like her mother, she didn't really like to eat carrots. Chu Jiang knew about all this. That's why every day, there were no carrots in their dishes.

Chu Lui picked up his chopsticks and grabbed some vegetables to feed his daughter. However, Rainy simply turned her face away and ignored him, not appreciating his gesture at all.

”Daddy, I want to eat it.” Chu Xiang tugged at Chu Lui's sleeve, staring at him with her large eyes. Chu Lui's faintly darkened pupils made Chu Xiang loosen her hand, afraid to cling onto him.

As for those vegetables, Chu Lui didn't give them to Chu Xiang.

”Ah Lui…” Song Wan frowned. ”What are you doing? What's wrong with feeding Chu Xiang some food?”

”I'm full. You guys eat.” Chu Lui placed down his chopsticks, turned around, and headed upstairs. It didn't matter whether he was hungry, and it also didn't matter if he wasn't full. He had lost his appetite.

At night, Song Wan and the nanny helped the two kids to shower. Chu Xiang had lived in this house for a long time. She liked to hog everything and was very possessive about her belongings, whereas Rainy had always felt like she didn't fit in. That's why she didn't speak much.

”All these are mine.” Chu Xiang pointed to her house of dolls and lifted her chin, announcing her reign over those things. ”This is my house, and they are my Grandpa and my Granny.”

Rainy lowered her head, looking at her small shoes. She didn't want those dolls anyway; those dolls looked so ugly.
