Chapter 685 - Insect Repellent (2/2)

“Let’s go. Mommy will bring you home.” She carried her daughter and placed her on the backseat of the bicycle. Rainy used her chubby hands to hold onto the rail and sat obediently.

Other people had private cars to fetch them from school, but Rainy could not care less. She loved to have her mother pick her from school so she could grab onto her mother’s clothes, talk to her, and chase after Uncle Wind.

Chu Lui resigned to his fate and followed behind the mother and daughter like their guardian angel.

When both of them returned home and were about to eat, that man was still outside in his car. The car was still there, and so was he.

When her mother was busy, Rainy took the chance and ran out. Shortly after, she dragged Chu Lui in.

“Mommy…” Rainy pulled Chu Lui’s finger. “Rainy did a good deed and brought the lost Uncle home. Mommy will bring Uncle back home with me later, okay?”

Xia Ruoxin came out from the kitchen and was still holding a ladle. Immediately, Chu Lui pulled Rainy back in case that woman raged and used the ladle to hit him.

Xia Ruoxin just went back to the kitchen with the ladle and continued cooking.

Outside, Chu Lui carried his daughter in his arms and secretly pinched his daughter’s small ears before pinching his own. He found out that it was really like what Xia Ruoxin had said; their earlobes were exactly the same.

He was delighted to discover that there was yet another similarity between him and his daughter.

Rainy came down from Chu Lui’s lap and went to the room to bring out a storybook. She lay down on her stomach and flipped the pages in all seriousness. Chu Lui walked over and squatted in front of his daughter. The book was colored. In the book, there were many small stories filled with colors. There were Chinese characters, spellings, and pictures which were perfect for children like Rainy who were just starting to learn.

When Xia Ruoxin came out, she found Chu Lui sitting on the floor with no regard to his status and was reading a book with Rainy. Not sure what Rainy had said, but it made the man laugh out loud.

In her memory, this man did not laugh very often. However, when he was dealing with children, he loved them with all his heart. Perhaps he was not a good husband or a good person, but one could not deny that he was a good father. However, he had missed his chances of being a good father. Now, he could only be a father who had repented.

Chu Lui had scored another dinner here again and left feeling delighted. On the second day, he came again to try his luck and gave Rainy a small gift.

“Mommy, is Rainy’s cat cute?”

Rainy carried a white cat which was the size of an adult’s palm.

This cat looked cute but did not seem like an ordinary cat.

Xia Ruoxin carried the cat from her daughter. She had not decided if she was going to adopt it as the cat had claws. What if the cat hurt Rainy?

“Don’t worry, this is a pure Garfield. It is very gentle and does not do anything but sleep.”

Xia Ruoxin lowered his head and placed the cat in her hand on her palm. Did this cat stop drinking milk already? Its nose was powdery and had a really big forehead. It seemed to have noticed Xia Ruoxin’s gaze, but it just lazily blinked and fell back asleep.

“Mommy, can we keep the cat?” Rainy looked at the cat in Xia Ruoxin’s hands innocently. She tried her best to tip-toe and pulled her mother’s clothes. She had a face filled with expectations, and her eyes were sparkling with delight. It was really hard for one to reject her.

Xia Ruoxin pulled the cat towards herself, but the cat was still asleep.
