Chapter 555 - Children are Like This (1/2)
”Rainy, does it still hurt?” He carefully touched Rainy's cheeks and checked for other injuries. Then, he checked her neck. It was only after realizing that there were no serious injuries on her that he finally felt at ease.
Rainy shook her head. ”It doesn't.” Her voice as sweet as glutinous rice made Chu Lui's heart feel a lot warmer, no longer having that desolation from before. He hugged his daughter in his embrace, feeling a sense of satisfaction he had never felt before.
”Sorry, Rainy. It's all Daddy's fault. Daddy really didn't know that it was you back then. Otherwise, even if I had to sacrifice my life, I would still have saved you. It was Daddy who made you and Mommy suffer so much. It's all Daddy's fault…”
He rested his head on top of Rainy's, speaking words that a three-year-old child could never understand.
Rainy placed her small hand on Chu Lui's chest, blinking her eyes from time to time. She lifted her head and was greeted with the tears that had fallen from Chu Lui's eyes.
This Daddy cries?
She reached out her tiny hand and placed them on Chu Lui's eyes. Her tender hands kindled Chu Lui's affection. His daughter was really very cute.
At that moment, the door opened. Upon seeing Chu Lui hugging his daughter, the nurse hurried over. ”Mr. Chu, you shouldn't be doing this. You must be careful with your wounds; otherwise, you might end up with sequela.”
”It's alright. I know my own body.” Chu Lui continued to hug his daughter. As for the nurse's advice, it went in one ear and left through the other. He didn't take it to heart at all.
The nurse's expression darkened. She had never met such an uncooperative patient. He had two large holes in his thigh and almost suffered bone damage. Yet, he was still moving about so carelessly. Did he not know? His leg almost had to be amputated.
”Right, is there anything to eat?” Chu Lui suddenly lifted his head and asked the nurse. This was a special ward so it was normal for people to order food.
”Oh, I forgot about that. I'll go get it right away.” So he was still a human. The nurse had thought that this man didn't know pain or hunger. However, it turned out that he actually did.
”Rainy, are you hungry? Daddy asked somebody to prepare some food for us.” He gently asked his daughter that he was hugging for the second time.
”Hungry.” Rainy nodded her head and answered earnestly.
The nurse who was at the entrance quickened her steps. Otherwise, she felt that she might just end up rolling her eyes at this man. He was so wounded himself, and yet he was still busy taking care of the child. Didn't he love his child a little too much?
After the nurse served the dishes, Chu Lui didn't even care about himself. He had actually slept for three whole days already, and he was famished. However, right now, he was only concerned about his baby daughter's tiny stomach. He didn't even mind if he starved to death.
This man… once he started to dote on somebody—sometimes, it could really be too much to handle.
”Do you still want to eat?” After feeding his daughter, Chu Lui had started to worry about her seemingly bloated stomach. He hastily put down the bowl in his hand and touched his daughter's tiny stomach before shouting for the doctor. His forehead had a layer of cold sweat, and nobody knew if it was from pain or shock.
