Chapter 654 - Mothers Mother is Grandma (2/2)

”Ruoxin, is that you? Ruoxin?” The coarse voice made Xia Ruoxin stop in her tracks. She pressed her lips tightly together as she saw Shen Yijun standing in front of her. She did not tell anyone that she was coming back so how did she know?

”Ruoxin, it really is you. I finally waited till you're home, my daughter.” Shen Yijun held out her hand, but Xia Ruoxin stepped backward with Rainy, avoiding her hand.

”Ruoxin…” Shen Yijun looked at her own hand and was greatly disappointed, causing her tears to roll once again. She finally understood the feeling of being rejected; she was like that to her daughter's in the past and was even more heartless.

”Ruoxin, since you left, your mother would wait here for you every day, No matter how wrong she is, you should forgive her.” Xia Mingzheng walked forward and held Shen Yijun's slightly shivering body.

”Ruoxin, Xinxin…” Shen Yijun called Xia Ruoxin's name, but Xia Ruoxin still stood there in front of them without saying a word.

Her lips quivered, but she still could not call 'mother'. Who was the one that said she was not her daughter? Who was the one that said she did not have a daughter like her? It was not that she did not want to forgive, but what was the point of doing so?

”Grandma…” A small and soft voice sounded. Not only was Shen Yijun stunned, but even Xia Ruoxin looked down at the Rainy she was holding hands with. What did she call just now? How did she know?

”Rainy, yes. It's Grandma. I am.” That small call made her touched and tears fell like a waterfall. This was Ruoxin's daughter, her granddaughter. She looked exactly like Ruoxin when she was young.

”We need to go.” After quite some time, Xia Ruoxin said this one word and held onto Rainy's hand tightly before leaving. This was because she was afraid. She was really afraid that she might cry out loud, too.

Mom, why did we end up like this? Did you know why, Mom? I don't even know what motherly love was anymore. The mother in my memory was the one that rather starved and would still buy snacks for me when I was four.

However, she was not Shen Yijun. Shen Yijun was Xia Yixuan's mother, not Xia Ruoxin's.

She held onto Rainy's hand and walked even faster to the point where Rainy had to run to follow her. She seemed to have sensed her mother's discomfort so she kept on running after her mother as she walked on.

Xia Ruoxin stopped and let go of her daughter's hand. She gently caressed her daughter's face, ”Are you tired?” Her voice was filled with unspeakable heartache. It was all her fault that she made Rainy walk so fast.

Rainy shook her head. ”Rainy isn't tired.” Then, she smiled at Xia Ruoxin sweetly and kept tip-toeing on her feet. Actually, her feet did hurt, but she did not say anything.

Xia Ruoxin bent down to carry her daughter. ”Let's go, Mommy will carry you.” Obediently, Rainy hugged her neck, but she turned around and looked at the Shen Yijun who was already far away.

”Mommy, is that Rainy's Grandma?” She asked Xia Ruoxin, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

”How did Rainy know that was Grandma?” No one had ever told her this so how did she know?
