Chapter 561 - Crying Her Eyes Out (2/2)

What if he fell sick again? What were they supposed to do then?

”I'm heading out for a while. I'll be right back.” Chu Lui's footsteps never stopped. He pulled open the door and walked straight out. Even before the nurse could dissuade him, he had already left the room. Neatly piled on the bed were doc.u.ments that he had gone through within an hour.

The nurse could only sigh and head out to inform the doctor about the situation. Anyway, this man was like that all day; it wasn't anything new to them. Patients who stayed in the VIP ward were all troublesome, and sure enough— one was really more troublesome than the other.

Chu Lui's fingers were placed at the spot between his eyebrows the entire time as he constantly rubbed at it. He felt that his head was distended and hurt like hell. He shook his head vigorously to wake himself up.

It was only then that he sat into his car and drove off at the fastest speed. The wails of the child from within the handphone made his heartache unbearably. Rainy was always an extremely well-behaved child, and he rarely saw her cry. Now, she was sobbing so badly for some unknown reason, and it made him unbelievably anxious. Even his eyebrows that were furrowed helplessly relaxed.

On the other side, Du Jingtang placed down the cellphone in his hand and took in a deep breath.

In his arms was a wailing child. See, she cried as expected. Furthermore, she was crying so sorrowfully. The more he consoled her, the harder she cried. How could this be? Rainy cried so much that he was practically at a loss of what to do.

He could make her happy and make her laugh, but facing a child that was crying her eyes out, he was practically helpless… the same as with that bloody ribbon.

”Little cutie, don't cry. Your daddy and mommy will be here in a moment.” His head and heart ached as he ceaselessly coaxed the child in his arms. However, the child simply cried with more grief as time passed. Her eyes and her tiny nose were red from crying, and the more he tried to console her, the harder the child sobbed. People passing by ceaselessly accused him. How could a big man like him bully a little girl? Simply atrocious.

Du Jingtang awkwardly lowered his head. This time, he was really ashamed. However, as long as this little fella stopped crying, it was enough for him. She had already been crying for about half an hour. Was it still not enough?

At the entrance, Chu Lui stopped the car. His complexion was poor because he was still having a fever, and his entire body felt weak. He got out of the car and coincidentally met with Xia Ruoxin who had hastily rushed over.

”Ruoxin.” Chu Lui stepped forward with haste and grasped Xia Ruoxin's hand. Why was she here? Without question, Du Jingtang must have called her over as well.

”Don't worry, Rainy's fine. Let's go in and take a look first.” His extremely composed voice consoled Xia Ruoxin, knowing that she must have been worried about her daughter.

Xia Ruoxin had no reaction, and she unintentionally let Chu Lui hold her hand. Right now, she was only worried about Rainy. She didn't even notice that Chu Lui's hand, which was tightly gripping hers, was actually of a higher temperature than an ordinary person's. His hands gave her slightly cold hands a new-found sense of warmth. She was so worried about her daughter that she had failed to realize—in that instant, Chu Lui's body temperature was evidently abnormal. His complexion was also appallingly wretched.

”Let's head in first.” Gripping the hand in his palm tightly, Chu Lui felt that for the first time his life seemed perfect. This feeling—he only experienced it four years ago, and only she could make him feel that way. How could he have been so dumb back then? Denying himself so obstinately.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be under such circ.u.mstances now.

However, now was not the time to be overthinking. The only person they were worried about was their daughter. Two people who didn't live together were brought together by a common point—their daughter.

From afar, they could already hear Rainy's wailing traveling periodically towards them.
