Chapter 832 - Painstaking Efforts (1/2)

“She’s under my mom’s name. I know you don’t like her so, naturally, I won’t let her appear in front of you. Not even her name.” Chu Lui extended his hand to hug this woman. At this moment, he felt that his life was complete.

“Ruoxin…”

“Hm?” Xia Ruoxin’s gaze stopped at the accounts, and her eyes were kind of upset.

“I’ll hold a big wedding for you, away from others.” Chu Lui patted her forehead lightly. “I won’t let you suffer. I’ll return everything that I owed you. All of it.”

“I know…” Xia Ruoxin smiled, and her fingers were intertwined with his fingertips.

“I will also return you whatever you owed me. All of it.” She thought in her heart. The smile on her face became even more vibrant, but under the sun, there was an indescribable distance on the side of her face.

Chu Lui’s brows knitted slightly and acted as if he did not see it. He only held the woman tightly and locked her in his arms.

He was scared. He was afraid that she would run off if he did not hold her tighter.

He was afraid that if he did not hug her tightly, he would lose her.

“Why don’t you ask me about Rainy?” Xia Ruoxin suddenly asked and wanted to find out if he knew about it. However, he clearly did not.

Song Wan hid everything really well. She lied to everyone, including her son and herself.

Chu Lui’s palm ruffled her hair gently. “Since you decided to leave so harshly, you wouldn’t bring the child back so easily. No matter where she is, I believe that you’ll put her in a safe place.”

However…

There was a sigh in his voice and the hoarseness had a bit of vibration to it; it was like an old book, an ancient instrument in a place without a storm—as quiet as ever.

“Ruoxin, we agreed. Wherever you go, I’ll follow you. This kind of harsh departure was crueler than letting a person die.”

Xia Ruoxin did not say anything. No one knew that she was smiling; she was smiling sarcastically and mockingly.

Yes, it was harsh.

It was not a living separation… but separation by death.

However, her life was cheap, and the heavens did not want it back.

She continued to play with Chu Lui’s buttons. This habit of hers was indeed like Rainy’s.

Just that, Chu Lui, do you really believe that I left on my own and I was not abducted by someone else? Her eyes squinted, and something flashed in her eyes. However, Chu Lui did not see it.

Do I not understand you enough, or do you not understand me enough?

However, she was wondering: if she was not pushed into the sea at the start and Rainy did not go missing, would she leave with her? She did not know. Perhaps she would.
