Chapter 741 - Xia Ruoxin, Stop Crying (1/2)

When both of them were together again, they were speechless.

It was not that they did not want to talk, they wanted to. They just answered casually with a ‘mm’ or an ‘oh’; at the very least, they knew that they were alive and could still talk.

If they continued being this numb, perhaps they would have already gone crazy before they could manage to leave alive.

“Xia Ruoxin, do you regret saving me?”

Shen Wei suddenly asked her. This was the one question she had always wanted to ask after being in captive. Did she regret getting burdened by her?

Now, their life and death was unknown; and so was their future.

“What’s the use of regretting? I’m already here.”

Xia Ruoxin gently heaved a sigh of relief.

Rather than complaining, she should think carefully about what else she could do. At the very least, what else could they use or think of in this kind of situation?

However, after thinking for a few days, all she could think of had been bumped away by the rocky boat.

“Shen Wei, how many days has it been?” she asked Shen Wei who was resting against her to sleep. She had forgotten, but maybe Shen Wei remembered.

“Um…” Shen Wei opened her eyes.

“How many days? I really couldn’t recall.”

“Me, too.” Xia Ruoxin smiled bitterly. “I don’t know if Rainy behaved well recently, if she had eaten, or if she even missed her Mommy.” As she said so, her voice started to choke with emotions.

“Xia Ruoxin.”

“I’m here.” Xia Ruoxin sniffed and felt some discomfort in her nose.

“Don’t cry.”

“Okay.”

“Don’t cry away the dust on your face.” Shen Wei closed her eyes, and only Shen Wei could say and do this kind of harsh manner to comfort someone.

Xia Ruoxin really stopped crying; the tears she dropped here were embarrassing. Perhaps she really did miss Rainy a lot. Luckily, she left Rainy in Du Jingtang’s care; and he would look for Chu Lui.

Like what Shen Wei said—even though Chu Lui was not a good person, he was a good father. Even though he had that kind of mother, one could not deny that he was nice towards Rainy.

This was still not bad. Even if her life ended there and then, even if she would be separated from her daughter by miles, at the very least; her daughter would be having a good life.

She closed her eyes.

On this day where there was no difference between day and night, they would sleep again after waking up and spend every single day in the same manner.

Each day passed like a year, and they were dreaming more than they were living. Actually, what was the difference between this and death?

Oh, exactly how many days had they left?

It seemed to be the sixty-fifth day?

…

Bang! The bedside light had been opened. Chu Lui sat up straight and hugged the daughter crying beside him.

“Baby, behave. Your Daddy is here. Don’t cry.”
