Chapter 561 - Crying Her Eyes Out (1/2)
”Uncle…” Rainy flattened her mouth, looking like she was about to cry. She gripped onto the ribbon in Du Jingtang's hand. If he continued on like this, she might just start crying for real.
”Alright, don't cry, don't cry. Uncle will find another way.” He hastily picked Rainy up, so frantic that a layer of perspiration had formed on his forehead.
Right. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he pinched Rainy's tender cheeks. ”Uncle thought of a very good idea. It'll make Rainy look really pretty.” He hastily picked up all his belongings before finally turning around. Although he had a child in his arms, his legs kept picking up the pace. So much so that it even felt like his legs were sweeping up a slight breeze, and on his face, a long-lost smile had reappeared.
He was indeed clever. This idea was totally brilliant. He believed that in a moment the little cutie would be happy.
Pretty? Rainy curiously blinked her gr.a.p.e-like black eyes. She obediently stayed in Du Jingtang's arms; however, her head was lowered. She used her small hands to touch her short hair, disappointment slightly showing on her face.
Actually, she loved that butterfly bow the best.
…
Chu Lui placed down the doc.u.ments in his hand. His right wrist hurt like hell. It was so sore he could barely even lift it up. However, the more it hurt at that moment, the more he was reminded of something.
A faint bitter smile flashed across his lips. Has he ever gone through as much pain as Xia Ruoxin? He once ruthlessly broke her arm. Even if he gave an arm back to her, it would still never be enough to make up for everything she went through.
A chain of ringtones rang, and he rubbed the spot between his eyebrows before picking up the cellphone left beside him.
He opened the handphone and took a look. It was Du Jingtang. He hastily placed the handphone to his ear, and a deep crease formed between his eyebrows.
”Cousin, save me!” Du Jingtang's agitated voice traveled from the other side of the phone. Behind him, there was also the sound of a child wailing from time to time.
Rainy. Chu Lui hastily straightened his body. Why was Rainy crying? What happened to his daughter?
”Tell me. What happened to Rainy?” He coldly asked. From time to time, he could hear the sound of Du Jingtang comforting Rainy, just that the child's wailing got louder and louder. It was so loud that even her sweet tender voice had already started to sound hoarse.
This damn Du Jingtang. What did he do to his daughter?
”Cousin, don't ask any more questions. Just make your way here first. I really can't handle this anymore.” Du Jingtang's lifeless voice spoke. It seemed like he was really driven into a corner by the little fella.
Chu Lui put down his handphone and frantically ripped off the needle on the back of his hand before getting up. The nurse entered the room, and upon seeing that the IV drip bag was still half-full, she exclaimed,
”Mr. Chu, your IV drip has yet to be completed?” She had never seen such an uncooperative patient. The last time he left his bed, he came back with a bad cold. Was he still planning to head out?
