Chapter 420 - Mommys Smell (2/2)

”I'm sorry.” Xia Ruoxin was a little apologetic. It seemed like she was too generous.

”Give me the bowl.” Shen Wei pushed the bowl towards Xia Ruoxin, who bumped foreheads with Rainy lightly. ”Rainy, stay here and play with Aunty, okay? Mommy's gonna do the dishes.”

”Okay.” Rainy nodded obediently and reached her hands out to Shen Wei who hoisted her up.

Shen Wei carried the little girl delightedly and played with her. It was difficult to imagine that she would actually play so excitedly with a child. This was the first time Xia Ruoxin was seeing a totally different side of Shen Wei.

Xia Ruoxin poured a dollop of dishwashing soap on her hands and ran them under the tap. She watched as the bubbles popped at her fingertips.

Outside, Shen Wei pinched Rainy's cheeks and swept her wine-red hair to one side,

”Rainy. Is Mommy prettier, or Aunty is?”

Rainy was an extremely honest child. She gnawed on the tiny fingers as her huge eyes shone. Then, she pointed at the kitchen. Mommy was pretty, and so was Aunty.

”Rainy loves Mommy and Aunty.” The little girl has a glib tongue which made Shen Wei's heart melt.

When Xia Ruoxin was done, Rainy was already tired from playing. She bit into her tiny fist as she slept. Her cheeks were rosy, but she looked a little like a boy with that short hair.

”Your daughter is really sweet.” Shen Wei handed the child in her arms to Xia Ruoxin reluctantly. This was someone else's child, not hers. She really wanted to bring that child back, but that place of hers…

Forget it. It was best not to dirty her pure eyes. Just let her grow up without worries.

Xia Ruoxin placed her daughter in the bedroom, and the first thing she asked when she came out was, ”You're not planning to leave that place?”

That place was obviously hell so there was no reason she should stay there. Xia Ruoxin felt like Shen Wei was able and had all the reasons to leave. All in all, that place was really not suitable for a normal person. It was filled with all kinds of filth, schemes, humanity's evil, ugliness, and negativity. The longer one stayed there, the more one would go mad.

She would always be grateful to Shen Wei for letting her leave that place, but what about Shen Wei herself? Was she going to continue staying there?

”Why would I leave?” Shen Wei took out a cigarette, but she fumbled around for her lighter. She had forgotten to bring it.

”Do you have a lighter?” She asked Xia Ruoxin. Her long and slender fingers, painted with red nail polish, were like that of an artist or a pianist. It should be held tightly by a man's huge and thick palms, instead of letting the cigarette stained her clean white fingers like this.

”Yes, give me a second.” Xia Ruoxin entered the kitchen and brought out a lighter for Shen Wei.

”Thank you.” Shen Wei put the cigarette into her mouth like she always did, and her red lips curled around it. She lit up the cigarette with the lighter, and the captivating scent of smoke filled her lungs.
