Chapter 675 - Why Does Mei Mei Not Like Me? (1/2)

The caretaker smiled but sighed to herself as she looked towards Chu Xiang. At this rate, something was bound to happen.

Chu Xiang’s position in the family would become more awkward. Perhaps her decision to join the family was a wrong one.

Song Wan hurriedly added a few more dishes. Outside, Rainy was playing with Chu Jiang. Chu Xiang, on the side, was jealous. She was jealous that Grandpa and Daddy would smile at Mei Mei.

“Dinner’s ready; come eat.” Song Wan dried her hands on her clothes as she walked out of the kitchen. She wanted to pick up her granddaughter.

However, when she approached, Rainy hid in Chu Jiang’s arms and turned away, clearly unwilling. The child’s rejection made Song Wan upset. She did not know what Chu Jiang had that she did not. Why was the child so close to him but so distant towards her?

“Let’s eat first; my Rainy’s hungry.” Chu Jiang smoothed things over as he brought Rainy over to eat.

“Yeah, let’s eat first.” Even though Song Wan was upset, she knew that dinner was more important. They could not let the children starve.

At the table, Chu Xiang needed to be fed. She was already six years old, but she was spoiled. Chu Lui put some rice into a new bowl for Rainy and gave her a spoon.

“Eat by yourself, and let Uncle know what dishes you want.”

“Thank you, Uncle.” Rainy thanked Chu Lui as she picked up her spoon to eat. She was not a picky child. She ate whatever she was given, and she did not ask for anything.

On the other hand, Song Wan was left feeling rather awkward. She hurriedly set her bowl down. “Xiang Xiang, can you eat by yourself? Mei Mei’s already eating by herself.”

Chu Xiang picked up her spoon to feed herself indignantly, but she struggled clumsily.

Rainy, on the other hand, was used to feeding herself. Even though she was a slow-eater, she did not spill any food. Mommy had told her that it was important to cherish her food, even more so because it did not come easy.

Chu Jiang patted Rainy’s head with a smile. This child was, without a doubt, a child of our family. She’s exactly like Ah Lui was when he was a child. They both have the same expression when eating.

Even though one might think that Rainy resembled her mother at first sight, the child’s personality took after the father’s.

He would fight anyone who said that she was not his granddaughter.

…

Chu Jiang held Rainy’s hand and brought her to the playroom. It was filled with toys.

“Rainy, play by yourself for a little. Grandpa will be right over.” He bent over and set the child down on a child. He had something that he had to attend to, and there was nothing to worry about since there were nannies in the house.

Rainy sat on the chair obediently. She would glance at the toys before her occasionally after Chu Jiang’s departure, but she did not move; neither did she pick up anything to play with. She set her hands on her knees and sat up straight.

Chu Xiang entered carrying a doll and stood before Rainy.
