Chapter 650 - You Witnessed My Downside (1/2)

”Stop talking!” Xia Ruoxin did not want to hear any of it. It was not because she could not take it, but it was like opening someone's wound one by one; and to him, it would mean a whole deal of pain and hurt.

”Don't wish to hear anymore?” Gao Yi puffed another mouth of smoke at her face, and he had completely lost the sunlight of his past. He now had a dark aura around him, and in the middle, he really changed.

”So, take your child and leave.” He extended his hand and placed it on Xia Ruoxin's face. ”I will be very uncomfortable with you here because you've seen me at my best but also my worst. Ruoxin, I'm a man. I can't face you now, you know? I want to start a new so I need to give up everything from the past. The Bai family, Bai Luoyin, and you.

”You will suffocate me… you'll make me look down on myself. I don't like that I can't control myself. The nicer you are to me, the more I would hate everything. The more you stick by me, the more terrible I would feel. So if you really want the best for me, please leave.”

After he finished, he squashed the cigarette head and threw it into the ash jar.

His every word was like a knife that stabbed into Xia Ruoxin's heart.

It turned out… her existence to him was a shame.

It turned out… upon seeing his failure, she would be the source of everything.

It turned out… anyone could see his failure, except for her. The more she cared, the more he wanted to abandon her.

Suddenly, she used all her might to bang her head against the table.

…

Rainy climbed on the cupboard to sit down, with her legs still dangling in the air.

”Mommy, are we moving?”

”Yes, we are.” Xia Ruoxin took out her clothes from the cupboard and folded them carefully before setting them aside.

Within a year, they had already moved house a few times. Just that, they did not know how many times more did they have to move before they could find a home of their own. In the vast world, where would be a spot for the mother and daughter?

She did not have much luggage. Her daughter had one, and she had one, too.

”Mommy, where are we going?” Rainy asked curiously as she climbed down the box and sat in front of her mother.

”Can we see Third Uncle and Aunty Wei?”

”Sure.” Xia Ruoxin carried her daughter, and perhaps it was really Rainy who reminded her that her own home was the best. Everything had to return back to their roots. In this country, she was just a mere passer-by. If it was not for Gao Yi who brought her here at the start, she probably would not have left her home country her whole life. She only left the Bai family in the beginning as she could find somewhere to stay, but if she were to move again—honestly, she did not know where to go anymore.

Everywhere was foreign to her, and nowhere felt like home.

So, go home, go back to their not-huge house; the home that had accompanied and witnessed their lives. Rainy was born and raised there. Besides, the situation was different from the past as she could not earn money to give her daughter a better life instead of working as a slave or a coolie.
