Chapter 676 - I Want Mommy, I Want to Go Home (1/2)

“Ah Lui, you be the judge.” Song Wan finally found someone to complain to. “It’s all your dad. You have no idea. Rainy snatched Xiang Xiang’s dolly, and she shoved her. I wasn’t even done talking, and your dad…”

However, Chu Lui cut her off before she could finish.

“Mom, Rainy only likes one dolly. She won’t want any of the other ones you give her.”

He stood up after he spoke. He did not say much. He left his mother to mull over things, but he knew that his daughter would never do anything like this, no matter the cause.

His heart ached for his obedient little girl.

He gently pushed the door open. Rainy was curled up in the bed, which made her seem extra small.

He walked over, and Rainy opened her eyes. They were red, like a little rabbit’s.

She climbed up from the bed and hugged Chu Lui’s neck.

“Uncle, Rainy misses Mommy. Rainy wants to go home,” the child said with a pout as tears streamed down her face. Chu Lui hugged his daughter tightly. He had hardly seen her cry. He remembered what she was like the first time. A tiny blob that neither cried nor threw tantrums. She had a straight face, and she bowed and thanked him when she left.

Was that to thank him for saving her?

However, he did not save her in the end.

That might be his greatest and irrevocable regret this life.

He took off his coat and picked up his daughter.

“Uncle, where are we going?” Rainy gripped onto Chu Lui’s clothes, her voice soft and meek.

Chu Lui pressed her face into his chest.

“Uncle’s sending you home to see Mommy, okay?”

“Okay.” Rainy’s eyes lit up at the thought of seeing her mommy and listening to her mommy’s stories. She stopped crying and wiped her eyes with her tiny hands.

Chu Jiang and Song Wan stopped quibbling when they saw Chu Lui walk out with Rainy.

“Where are you bringing Rainy?” Song Wan hurried over to try and grab her granddaughter. She had barely spoken to the child, and she intended to sleep with the child tonight.

“I’m bringing her home to her mother.” Chu Lui caressed his daughter’s soft hair.

“Mom, she’s still young. She needs her mother at night.”

Song Wan pursed her lips, but she could do nothing but turn away and keep silent in the end.

“Go, be careful on the way.” Chu Jiang patted his son’s shoulder. Even though he could not bear for his granddaughter to leave, he did not have much of a choice. He saw the wronged expression on his granddaughter’s face, and he had tried cajoling her to no avail earlier. He only left when the child fell asleep. They never really spent much time with the child. They were practically strangers to her.
