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

His daughter’s face was filled with tears. Even though this child did not cry and was quiet in the day—at night, she would frequently wake up from nightmares and start crying.

“Daddy, Rainy misses Mommy.” The child used her hand to wipe her tears. The more she cried, the more upset she got and the fiercer she cried.

“Jingtang…!”

Chu Lui yelled towards the outside.

Du Jingtang took off the eye mask on his head in a daze and squinted his eyes before opening the disinfected cupboard. He took out a milk bottle from the inside and squinted his eyes and like a walking ghost, he went into the kitchen, poured water, and made milk.

While he walked, he rubbed his eyes. He opened the door and passed the milk in, but no one answered after quite a while.

“Take it.” He said in a daze, but no one took it.

Finally, he opened his eyes and sighed inevitably.

“It’s the wrong door.”

He walked out again, turned around, entered Chu Lui’s room, and faced the child’s cries uselessly. Rainy inside was crying and kept rubbing her eyes; she cried and cried but did not want to sleep.

At midnight—once she started crying, all of their moods worsened. They probably would not even be able to sleep.

These few months, they used this method to get by. Once they gave her her milk bottle, it was as though she found her mother. Perhaps in her memory, her mother had made the milk for her; and once she drank it, she would fall asleep.

However, after she slept, what about the adults?

“Brother, how many days has it been?” Du Jingtang was more awake and rubbed his brows. He walked to a bed nearby and sat down. Once he saw Rainy gulping down the milk, his heart hurt. “She slimmed down again. She didn’t have much meat at first, but how could she slim down by so much?”

Chu Lui gently patted his daughter’s back, and both their eyes were bloodshot. In the morning, he had to go to the office. At night, he still had to take care of the child as other than him, the child would not go with anyone else.

“How many days?” Chu Lui’s hand was still patting her back, afraid that his daughter would wake up and cry again.

“Yeah, how many days has it been?” Du Jingtang asked again. Actually, he himself did not know how many days had passed. It seemed as though it had happened in their previous life.

“Today is the sixty-fifth day.” Chu Lui carried his daughter carefully and let her sleep in his arms. The fellow was still drinking her milk, and both her hands were holding the bottle. She was small and pitiful.

“It’s been more than two months already.” Du Jingtang felt dejected in his heart.

“Brother, are we still looking for her?

“We have been searching for so long. If we could find her, we would have a long time ago. However, if we can’t find her, is there a meaning to continue searching like this?”

“Mm, continue.” Chu Lui had never given up on the notion to find her. He would do his best to find and make use of his connections. If one day would not do it, then two days; if two could not work, then three. If one year could not work, then two.

It had only been two months; it had not been very long.

He would find Rainy’s mother, the one woman he cared about the most in the world. He could not lose any of the two women beside her; they could not be lost or come into harm.

“I know.” Du Jingtang stood up and stretched his lazy body before sleeping again. He still had to wake up early tomorrow to go to work and search for Xia Ruoxin.

The door opened, and he walked out to pour himself a glass of water before sitting on the couch. After drinking the water, he started drifting off into deep sleep.

“Sleep time…” He stood up and walked shakily before opening a door and crashing on the bed he saw not far away. After a while, there were heavy snores.

Lin Qing sat up straight on his bed and looked down to see Du Jingtang.

He pressed his lips tightly together childishly.

Luckily, he slept in the upper bed today; if not, he would have been crushed by this idiot here.
