Chapter 656 - He Still Had Not Left (1/2)

”You can make do anywhere, but have you ever thought of Rainy? She's just a child. Do you really want her to suffer with you? Sleep in the streets and be cold and hungry?” Chu Lui continued as he stared at Xia Ruoxin. He knew; he had said it right and had done right.

Rainy… Xia Ruoxin put down the luggage in her hand and carried her daughter with both hands. Rainy's head was lying on her shoulder, and even such a big movement did not wake her up. It was obvious that she was in deep sleep as her eyelashes grew long on her cute and red face.

Could she really let her daughter sleep on the streets with her?

No, she could not do it.

”You don't have to leave.” Chu Lui inched closer and stood in front of her before lowering his head. ”You really don't have to go because the one that should… is me. This is originally your place, your home. Don't worry, I'll leave in a while.” He forced a smile, but behind it was an unspeakable pain that no one knew about. Actually, he really wanted to be closer to her, but he was just afraid that his closeness would result in her distance.

She had already left once, and there would be a second time so he did not dare take the risk anymore.

He did not speak a word about Gao Yi. As long as she was back, he did not care about anything else.

After he was done talking, he carefully carried the child in Xia Ruoxin's arms. ”I will leave once I settle her and the vegetables.” Chu Lui lowered her head and looked at the child in his arms. He felt that his hands did not even know where to be placed, but he finally could hold his daughter once again. She was really beautiful and tiny.

When her arms were empty, she hurriedly turned around and saw that Chu Lui had carried Rainy to the bed. As meticulous as ever, he placed the child on the bed and covered her with the blanket and looked down at her, not bearing to leave. Suddenly, he felt something stabbing his eyes. They were really painful and sour.

He caressed Rainy's soft face gently. She was already three, going to be four. He pressed his slightly dry lips against each other and brought out a doll from the bedside. It was the one that he had spent all his effort in getting it; it was still the same old one. He felt utterly depressed, but he still placed the child in Rainy's arms. Subconsciously, Rainy held the doll tight and fell into a deeper sleep. Even if the earth started quaking now, she would not be woken up.

He was reluctant to let his hand leave, but he still stood up and took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and placed it on the table, beside Xia Ruoxin's.

”Don't worry, I'm leaving.” The man that appeared in front of Xia Ruoxin's eyes once again did not have the coldness of the past and was not careful, meticulous, and caring.

He walked out and helped them close the door on the way. He sat back down on his car parked outside but did not drive it away. He just leaned back in his seat and looked at the light in the flat.

He could not stay there, but he could—at the very least—stay in his car to look at them. Even though it was tiring for him, but he felt very satisfied because they were back, they were really back. Now, he could go close to them in such short distances and feel their presence. What more could he want?

After the bedroom door was closed, Xia Ruoxin then bent down and picked up the bag of groceries on floor and walked to the kitchen to place the groceries into the fridge one by one like a machine. The fridge was filled to the brim, and there was no space left.

Could he finish all of this? Xia Ruoxin muttered to herself as she looked at the fridge full of food. All these ingredients were enough for a family for a whole week. If it was he himself, it would be sufficient for a whole month. Even with a fridge, groceries from a month ago would not even be fresh at all.
