Chapter 786 - She… was Home (1/2)
Xia Ruoxin opened her eyes, and at that time, a warm palm was already on her forehead.
“What’s the matter? Was it a nightmare?”
“I’m okay.” Xia Ruoxin lightly closed her teeth, and it seemed like she could still feel the taste of the bean she ate: salty, dry, and tasteless.
She suddenly remembered. That red bean. That half a red bean was at Shen Wei’s feet. However, she ate it. No, to put it more accurately, she did not eat it… she broke it apart.
“Sleep a little more.” Chu Lui massaged her temple and placed his hands on her shoulder. He patted them slowly as if he was pacifying a child.
Xia Ruoxin closed her eyes again, and she felt that she would not have nightmares anymore.
“Chu Lui?”
“Mm?” Chu Lui answered.
“Do you know who Mo Ming’s wife is?” She opened her eyes wide and felt that something was amiss with Shen Wei. Could the person who Shen Wei saved be Mo Ming?
Chu Lui clenched the hand on her shoulders lightly.
“Why are you suddenly asking about this?”
“I just want to know.” Xia Ruoxin heaved a sigh of relief. Actually, it was not something she had to know. She was just curious; perhaps she had thought too much or that she had thought wrong.
Chu Lui kept her hand before pulling the blanket to her shoulders. “If you want to ask about this, I can’t answer you because I don’t know.
“However, it seemed like she was also a woman that he had taken revenge on. Now that he regretted it, he could not find her anymore.”
“Luckily, I could still find you.” He muttered to himself.
Luckily, you are still here.
Luckily, we still have a chance.
Therefore, as compared to Mo Ming, it seemed like he was luckier. At the very least, he had a daughter; and he could find them both.
The warm gaze shone on through the windows which landed on the man’s face. The man’s features had a warm glow on it, even his lips bent upwards.
At that moment, this smile of his was something no one saw before.
It was very relaxed and casual.
Time then passed slowly as they waited for the wind, listened to the rain, and waited for the leaves to drop.
Xia Ruoxin sat at the resting bench outside and was still wearing patient clothes. Her hair had grown out a little, but to others, it was still considered short. However, it looked much better. Even though it could not be compared to the steps and laughter of beautiful women with long hair, it still looked like it had been carefully manicured.
A leaf slowly landed in front of her, and her gaze followed the dropping of the leaf. She followed the movement of the leaf as it finally landed on her legs. She then picked the leaf up.
At this time, a man walked over in big steps and stepped on the leaves on the floor which produced a crackling noise. His feet did not stop.
Xia Ruoxin raised her head, and the light in front of her eyes was blocked.
“Let’s go back. The sky is already cold.” The man squatted down, reached out his hand, and removed the leaf that had dropped on her hair from quite a while back.
“Okay.” Xia Ruoxin sat up. After resting for a month or so, her frostbites were much better; but her left arm still had to be in a cast for at least three months.
“Chu Lui…” Xia Ruoxin placed her right hand on top of her eyes to block out the sunlight.
