Chapter 558 - Its a Pity that Hes Crippled (1/2)

”Excuse me, sir.” she wanted to continue asking, but Chu Lui had already carried Rainy away, with his right leg limping slightly.

He was really handsome, but what a pity, he was a cripple. The teacher sighed in disappointment. Chu Lui did not go far. He was just standing outside the school in the rain, carefully using his body to shield Rainy's body—even if the rain had already drenched his back. He stood there till he saw a figure coming in from the distance, and then he made the effort to move his legs.

Xia Ruoxin ran really quickly. She came out, ready to pick her daughter; but it suddenly started raining. Gao Yi was still in the hospital, waiting for surgery, so it was only her going to pick Rainy up.

Just that, this rain seemed to fall at just the right timing. Even she had a minor headache so she was afraid that her daughter would get wet. She held her hand above her head and squinted a little, noticing that the figure on the stairs was very familiar.

She tried really hard to open her eyes. That was not anyone else. It was her Rainy. She ran forward, not understanding why Rainy would be found there. Also, she had an umbrella in her hands thankfully. If not for the umbrella, the little kid would be drenched.

She walked over, took away her daughter's umbrella, and hugged her.

”Sorry, Rainy, Mommy is late.” She hurriedly apologized. Rainy used her hands to wipe the rain droplets off Xia Ruoxin's head, but her face let go of a smile.

”Mommy…” Her sweet voice let Xia Ruoxin to instinctively pinch Rainy's cheeks, making her unwilling to leave.

”Okay, Rainy, let's go home.” Xia Ruoxin tightly hugged Rainy and walked forward, just that Xia Ruoxin kept looking back from time to time.

Rainy pulled on Xia Ruoxin's clothes.

Xia Ruoxin turned back in confusion and found that a man with his back was facing them, walking away. His back was drenched by the rain, and his hair was also stuck beside his ear.

Only his legs, with every step he took… it looked difficult and excruciating. The man with a big build, however, looked a bit weak and grim.

”Mommy, it's that Daddy. He gave Rainy an umbrella, and he even accompanied me to wait for Mommy.” Rainy raised her hand and pointed at the figure in the distance. Then, she looked up at the sky and asked, ”Mommy, is that Daddy not scared of the rain? Is he not cold? Rainy is very cold.”

She said as she dove into Xia Ruoxin's embrace, and then Xia Ruoxin held the child tightly. For some reason—when she saw Chu Lui like that, tears welled up in her eyes.

”Mommy will bring you home now. You won't be cold anymore when you reach home.” She held her daughter and walked away quickly. Chu Lui—who was already a distance away from the mother and daughter—stopped in his tracks, turned around, and watched until they disappeared into the rain; revealing a small smile on his lips.

As long as he could do something for them—albeit how minor it might be, he would be satisfied. He did not have any unreasonable intentions. He just wanted to see his daughter more… and her.

”Ruoxin, I'm sorry, but can I really not get any forgiveness?” When he thought until here, he let out a bitter laugh. He could not even forgive himself, let alone someone else.
