Chapter 671 - Battlefield-Like Office (1/2)

There was braised fish on the table, just like the one he ate in Britain. It was what that man liked to eat while he liked steamed fish. He really felt that he still had a long way to go.

Xia Ruoxin picked out the bones from the fish and placed it in her daughter’s bowl. Rainy did not need anyone to feed her and could eat on her own. However, she noticed that that Uncle would look at her bowl from time to time; was it because her food was nicer?

“Uncle, Rainy will give you her food.” Rainy offered her bowl generously.

Chu Lui’s chopsticks stopped in their motion.

He took the bowl and placed it in front of his daughter again.

“Baby, Uncle has his own bowl,” he said as he lifted his own one up. “You see?”

Rainy looked at it for quite some time but still did not understand so she continued eating her food. “I thought Uncle liked Rainy’s food.”

Chu Lui helped himself to some vegetables. Actually, he did not just like Rainy’s food; he really wished he could eat at this table every day. Instead of delicacies, all he wanted was this homemade food.

Her daughter was also very obedient, well-behaved, and polite. The Chu Xiang in his house still needed his mother to feed her. Compared to her, Rainy was very obedient.

After dinner, Xia Ruoxin tidied up the table; and when she came out again, Chu Lui was still here. He was sitting beside Rainy and was checking on her writing her homework.

“Does she know a lot of words?”

Chu Lui was surprised by Rainy’s ability to recognize words. Even though she did not know the meaning of some, she had already learned to read and write them.

“Kind of.” Xia Ruoxin did not want to talk to him about Rainy too much as she always had the feeling that he was going to snatch her daughter away.

Also, she opened the curtain and found out that the sky outside was already dark.

“Mr. Chu, the sky is dark.”

“Yes, I know.” Chu Lui pretended to not get the hint.

“Mr. Chu, the sky is dark, and the roads are slippery.”

“I have a car.”

“Mr. Chu, I’m going to lock my house door.”

“I’ll open it in a while.”

“CHU LUI!” Xia Ruoxin yelled Chu Lui’s name really loudly, and her face darkened. What exactly did he want? Forget about him invading her house; what other motive did he have?

“Yes, go on.” Chu Lui decided to act dumb all the way, but he also knew his limits. He stood up as he knew that he could not rush things; if not, it would result in a disaster.

This woman still took great precautions against him.

He opened the door and left. When there was no longer the man’s scent in the house, Xia Ruoxin then noticed that her breathing had started to become normal.

“Mom, I’m done writing.” Rainy raised her hand as if she was bestowing a gift. The happenings between the two adults were none of her business as she was still a child.
