Chapter 584 - He had a Fiancee

Chapter 584 He had a Fiancee

Just that, she also knew that there was no turning back because she had already promised him. No matter what lay ahead, she could only persevere on and continue. She looked down and touched her daughter’s cheeks. Rainy then hugged her legs even tighter. Fear could be seen from her eyes; she was also afraid of this place.

Everyone’s eyes were on Gao Yi. It seemed as though they had already forgotten that beside him, there were a woman and a child. Xia Ruoxin patted her daughter’s shoulder, but she could not ignore the stare that sent a chill down her spine.

She looked up, and her eyes met with those of the young woman who had hatred written all over her face, which shocked Xia Ruoxin. Instinctively, she hid Rainy behind her back. She could not understand why the woman had such strong feelings towards her.

It did not seem as though they had met before.

Gao Yi’s mother, Wei Lan-on the other hand

-examined her son carefully and said, “Hm, you’ve slimmed down, but you’ve also become tanner, but your body seems to be fine.”

“Mom, I’m a doctor, my body has always been fine.” As for his tanned skin, that was because he just returned from Africa not too long ago so his skin color had not returned to its original. As for him slimming down, he did not reckon so. He felt that he became fatter on the contrary, due to Xia Ruoxin’s cooking

Right, Wei Lan suddenly thought of something and immediately stood next to the young woman. Instantaneously, the woman’s face changed at the speed of the weather change. Her overly expressive emotions were hidden and, in its place, were shy and gentle expressions which made Gao Xin give a contemptuous look.

Why was she acting? She should know that if it was not for her at the start, his brother would not have had to leave the house for three years. Back then, he was only sixteen; but he had to slave for this family while she... all she cared about was playing and being the princess of her family.

He lowered his head and looked at the small child, and then he blinked at Rainy. This child was still cuter, which made him more comfortable, so he should just look at Rainy. Yes, the more he looked, the cuter she became. She was as pretty as her mother, but she might be prettier when she grew up. What a pity she was not Brother’s biological child; if not, it would have been perfect.

He held his chin, but this fellow seemed to be kind of shy with strangers.

Wei Lan obviously did not take notice of the mother and daughter, and she pulled his son over and lamented, “Xiao Yi, you see, how could you be so irresponsible? Luoyin had already waited for you for three years before you finally came back. This time, you can’t leave anymore; and even if you do, you must bring Luoyin along with you. After all, she is your fiancee.”

The word ‘fiancee’ sent shock waves to Xia Ruoxin. Gao Yi had a fiancee. Why had he not mentioned this before? Then, what was she? What was Rainy?

Starting from this moment, Bai Luoyin’s eyes looked like they were never going to leave Gao Yi. Three years, she laughed. How could it be three years; how could it only be three years? She had waited an eternity for him.

“Yi, you’ve come back. I really missed you,” she said, as she extended her arms to hug Gao Yi. However, Gao Yi no longer looked as gentle as the past; his face only had an abnormal sense of calmness.

He walked past Bai Luoyin’s hands, obviously showing his rejection.

He walked in front of Xia Ruoxin and hugged her shoulders, giving her a look of assurance, before going to beside her leg and picked up Rainy. “Mom, let me introduce them to you. This is Xia Ruoxin, my future wife; and this is our daughter, Rainy.”

His sudden words dumbfounded everyone, especially when he said ‘our daughter’-even Wei Lan was shocked to no end. When did he have a child? Moreover, the child is already this big. Wei Lan looked down on the child Gao Yi was carrying. The child was really good-looking and cute. Her small, angelic face made her look as pretty as a doll. Her gaze then shifted to Xia Ruoxin’s, and then she finally understood why the child was so pretty.

It was because she had a really beautiful mother.

“Xiao Yi, this child is...” Wei Lan could not believe it. She could not believe that this was Gao Yi’s child. However, he did say it himself. What exactly was going on?

“Mom, I’ll explain to you on a later date.” Gao Yi hugged Rainy, and Rainy buried her face in his chest. Too many strangers were looking at her; she was really starting to get scared.

“Mom, I came back specifically for this. I want to marry Ruoxin. As early as possible.”

“But...” Wei Lan hesitated. She was not sure how to handle the situation. If he married this Xia Ruoxin, then what about Bai Luoyin? However, this engagement was set personally by Bai Zhenfeng, and Bai Luoyin had not gotten into a relationship all these years because of Gao Yi. She could agree-she could be willing, but what about Bai Zhenfeng. Would he agree?

“Mom, I never said that I would marry Luoyin. I only take her as my little sister. The only person I want to marry is Ruoxin,” said Gao Yi definitely as he held Xia Ruoxin’s hand tighter to give her wordless comfort. Of course, it was also to make his stand known to everyone.

Bai Luoyin’s face flashed red and white as she stood there feeling ashamed. “Yi, how could you do this? You agreed to our marriage at the start,” questioned Bai Luoyin as she pointed shakily at Xia Ruoxin. “If you marry her, then what about me?” Yes, what was she going to do? How was she going to face her family and friends? How was she going to face everything?

All these years, she had been waiting for him faithfully as she believed that one day he would come back as Wei Lan was here, Gao Xin was here... his home was here. However, could someone just tell her why... Why was it that by the time he returned, what he gave her was not hope, not happiness... but a big shock? He did not want to marry her. He wanted to marry some woman with a dubious background. What about her? She spent so many years waiting for him in vain. This was impossible; this simply could not happen.

She kept shaking her head, hid her face, and ran out crying. When she reached the door, she turned around and glared at Xia Ruoxin. Whoever she was, she would not let her steal everything that belonged to her.

“Xiao Yi, this...” Wei Lan stole a glance at the middle-aged man who had kept silent all this while. It seemed like she could only keep quiet for the time being.

“You better give up on that thought,” boomed the middle-aged man who finally stood up from the host seat, his hard cold voice made the atmosphere in the entire living room tense up even more.
