Chapter 700 - Whose Child Is This? (2/2)
She raised her head up to have a look, and an exquisite and mesmerizing face entered her gaze.
Ou Luoxi.
Xia Xiaofu froze, and her vision was all blurry as she looked at him.
Ou Luoxi lowered his gaze down to look at the small woman who was seated down on the floor, and her sparkling tears were all over her entire face. She already cried so hard that her small nostrils were red. At this moment, she was very helpless. She was dishevelled and felt disoriented, and all of her emotions were written in her moist almond-shaped eyes. She also looked extremely pitiful.
He stretched one hand out to her.
Xia Xiaofu saw him looking down at her. He must have taken a shower. He wore a casual black shirt and white casual pants. He did not like to cover his forehead up with his fringe anymore, and his soft fringe was parted casually. It exposed his beautiful, stunning eyes, and his casual attire made him look like a long legged Oppa from a Korean drama — pure and handsome.
In her peripherals, she could see Ah Li bending over to pick her mother up and take her to the emergency room. The doctors rushed over hurriedly, and the nurses swept all of the food into the rubbish bin,before mopping the floor.
But no matter how clean the floor was tidied up, it was unable to wash away the dishevelled feeling that she had.
And he was standing there elegantly. He was so quiet and confident as he looked at her.
Xia Xiaofu avoided his hand before moving her body clumsily. She sat up on her own and carried Little Fifth as she sat back on the long bench.
She did not raise her gaze. Her voice was all hoarse as she said, “Thank you.”
He was once aloof, and his leg had been disabled before. He was once dishevelled. She did not despise him at all, and she only knew how to love him. She loved one person and just wanted it to be so glorious, no matter what happened in the end.
And right now, she understood that at that time, she had the right to be haughty and cool, and she had the pride to love a person.
Right now, what did she have?
She had long lost her pride.
Or maybe, right now, she was unable to afford love anymore.
Ou Luoxi’s hand was frozen in mid air, but he regained his normal expressions very quickly as he put his hand back into his pocket. His other hand was still holding the car keys, and he pursed his thin light-pink lips together as he said, “Whose child is this?”
This question was just like a bolt of lightning that stuck the top of Xia Xiaofu’s head. She was flabbergasted as she lifted her head up and said, “What?”
“Around three months ago… I remember that we did it.” It was just as if she did not remember it, so he had to remind her, and he said, “It was inside the hotel room.”
All of the blood in Xia Xiaofu’s body froze, and her hands and feet were all icy cold.
She suddenly understood why he’d been back for such a long period of time yet did not bring up anything about Little Fifth, and she also understood why during the afternoon inside the car, he did not look at Little Fifth a second time…
All of his coldness was saying something — he thought that Little Fifth was not his!
Xia Xiaofu did not think that this would happen. Inside her heart, she really wanted to laugh very badly. If Little Fifth did not belong to him, who else would she belong to?
In her entire life, she’s only had one man.
Despite the year that he was missing, and no matter how much fear and worry she went through in the past year, she tried all of her best to protect her own innocence. She always thought that she was his, and she did not allow anyone to tarnish her.
Xia Xiaofu was in a daze as she looked into Ou Luoxi’s eyes. She wanted to see something related to the past in his eyes, but there was nothing.
He came over to her only to ask who Little Fifth belonged to.
Xia Xiaofu lowered her head. Her small hand held onto the mustard yellow blanket that was covering Little Fifth’s body until the joints on her hands were all white. She tried her absolute best to not allow her tears to fall.
Ou Luoxi noticed her not say anything, so he raised his eyebrows and said, “You…”
“Young Master,” At this moment, Ah Li walked over and said, “The VIP ward is already prepared.”
“Yes, Mrs. Ou, please come over with me,” said a nurse.
Xia Xiaofu stood up, and her eyes were all red as she looked at Ah Li and asked, “How is my mother doing?”
Ah Li politely nodded his head and said, “Aunty has been too fatigued recently, so that led her to fainting temporarily. We have given her a total body check, and she is fine. Aunty has already been admitted into a ward, and there is a nurse looking after her. They will give her some saline at night, and she can be discharged tomorrow.”
Xia Xiaofu nodded her head and said, “Thank you.”
She carried Little Fifth and followed the nurse into the VIP ward.
…
Inside the hospital ward, Xia Xiaofu gently placed Little Fifth on the bed, and the nurse smiled and said, “Mrs. Ou, I will help you to take care of your child for a while. You can go and have a shower first.”
Xia Xiaofu looked at her own trousers, and she fell on the floor just now. Her trousers were stained with food, and she looked very dishevelled.
The nurse was reminding her kindly.
“Mrs. Ou, this is a clean hospital gown. You can take a shower first before putting this on then. Just bear with it for a night.”
“Okay.” Xia Xiaofu nodded her head, took the clothes, and went into the bathroom.
She went into the bathroom and walked over to stand underneath the shower head. She stretched her hand out to turn on the shower.
When the warm water touched her body, she realized that she had not removed her clothes. She froze for a moment. There was a mirror on the wall, and she looked at the mirror to have a look at her small pale face that did not have any trace of blood in it.
She was trembling as she stretched her small hand out to touch her small face. Her long hair was all wet and stuck to her face. She was listless like a ghost. Was she still that attractive Xia Xiaofu from the past?
No wonder Ou Luoxi did not like her anymore. Even she started to hate herself now.
Xia Xiaofu slid down slowly. She stooped down on the floor and used both of her small hands to cup her small face. Hot tears were streaming down her face through the weaves of her fingers, and she softly sobbed.
…
Little Fifth opened her eyes, and the nurse looked at her cute pink face. She was super cute. The nurse could not help but tease and play with her. At this moment, the door of the hospital ward opened, and Ou Luoxi walked inside.
The nurse quickly stood up straight, and her small face was slightly red as she said, “Young Master Gong Ming.”
Ou Luoxi looked at the tiny figure moving about on the bed and said, “You can go out now.”
“Ok.” The nurse hurriedly ran out and closed the door.
After the ward was quiet, Ou Luoxi lifted his long legs and walked over to the side of the bed. Little Fifth, who was on the bed, realized that someone walked over, and she turned half of her body around. She widened her large dark eyes as she looked at Ou Luoxi.
Her small pink hands and feet were flying in the air as she danced around. She looked at Ou Luoxi and started to blabber. The corners of her lips were curled upwards, and she let out a sweet smile.
