Chapter 744: Bring Sister Back Again
“Pass me the rice.” Chu Lui extended his hand towards Lin Qing.
Lin Qing took the bowl of rice from behind, and his hand shook, causing the bowl of rice to drop on the floor and be scattered everywhere.
“Sorry, Uncle Chu. I didn’t mean it.” Lin Qing hurriedly moved a step back as if he was frightened.
Chu Lui pressed his daughter’s face against his chest.
“Be careful next time.” A sense of unhappiness flashed across his eyes as he was afraid it would startle the sensitive Rainy. He lowered his head and was worried. As expected, Rainy held onto his clothes nervously and kept crying.
“Don’t be afraid. Daddy will bring you out for good food, okay? Let’s eat something nice, and Mommy will come back.”
“Okay.” Rainy agreed, bit on her fist, and stopped saying a word. Chu Lui carried his daughter out, and with a ‘bang’, the door closed.
Lin Qing lowered his head and kicked the food on the floor.
“Dumb.” He scolded again, but he did not know who he was targeting.
He cleaned the food on the floor before entering the kitchen and scooping a bowl of rice himself. When he ate a bite, he immediately spat the food out because it was too salty.
Dumb. It was okay if he just added to the bowl; if he added to the pot, he could not even eat it himself. Luckily, Chu Lui brought his daughter out; if not, he would find out about the large amount of salt in the rice.
Then, he scooped another bowl of rice for himself which was still too salty. Hence, he directly went to the water dispenser to pour some water for himself and sat on the chair to start eating.
Outside, Chu Lui brought his daughter to eat things like burgers and fries. Children should like those as what he heard from Du Jingtang who had heard from somewhere else.
He really had very little interactions with children and did not know how to be a good father. He ruffled his daughter’s soft hair, and he had even tied these ugly plaits today. However, unexpectedly, Rainy did not find fault with it. She continued wearing the plaits that her father had tied to school. Even when the teachers wanted to retie for her, she was not willing and rather had the ugly plaits on her hair. When Chu Lui first heard it from the teacher, a big man like him almost cried uselessly.
“Is it nice?” He smiled and asked his daughter, a warm gaze shooting out from his dark brows.
“It’s nice.” Rainy ate it bit by bit, and even though she said it tasted nice, she did not feel that way. Chu Lui knew that the child missed her mother; and unless Ruoxin came back, she would probably be in this state for a very long time.
He was really afraid that the little her would fall sick again. With her current body condition, she could not fall sick again.
“Be obedient, and your Mommy will come back.” He comforted his daughter and shoved a bunch of food to her. It did not matter if she could not finish; it was okay even if she ate one bite from each meal.
When Chu Lui came out, Rainy was already asleep; and her long lashes drooped down with tear droplets on them.
Chu Lui carefully carried the daughter up and into the car. The past two months that Xia Ruoxin was missing, he was a father and also a mother. Now, he finally realized that it was not easy to raise a child, especially a small girl... a beautiful small girl. He did not only need to worry now, but he also had to worry about his daughter getting pecked away by some hungry wolves in the future.
However, he seemed to forget that his daughter was only four and had quite some time until she grew up.
His phone rang, and he picked up. However, his gaze landed on the daughter sleeping beside him. Luckily, she did not wake up and was still asleep.
“Ah Lui, come home for once.” Through the phone, he could not tell much from Song Wan’s voice; and with that one sentence, she hung up.
Chu Lui wanted to send his daughter home first, but there was only Lin Qing in the house, and he was only ten. After much thinking, he brought Rainy with him.
He would find a nanny soon as he could not bring the child with him wherever he went. He was still a man who had his flaws, restrictions, and lack of understanding.
With one hand carrying his daughter, he pressed the doorbell with the other.
Not long later, the door was opened by the nanny.
“Mr. Chu Junior, you’re back.” The nanny lowered her head, and once she saw the child in Chu Lui’s arms, her heart melted.
“Oh, she’s asleep. How adorable.”
“Mm, she just did.” Chu Lui placed his hand on his daughter’s head before nodding at the nanny and heading in.
Song Wan was currently sitting on the couch, but Chu Lui did not go over and brought his daughter to the bedroom first.
In the end—when the door opened, he found out that there was someone inside; and his room was in a mess. When he walked in, he realized that even his blankets were messy.
“Daddy.” Chu Lui hurriedly jumped down from the bed. However, once she saw Rainy in Chu Lui’s arms, her eyes flash a sign of anger. Her Daddy had brought the little sister back again.
She was clearly her father’s child. Granny said that she was under father’s name and was father’s only child. However, this little sister that came out of nowhere had occupied her father’s arms and his time.
Her father had never carried her, but now, he was carrying this little twit every day.
“Who allowed you to come in?” Chu Lui’s voice was very stern. He never liked people dirtying his room so who allowed Chu Xiang to come in?
“I allowed Xiang Xiang to come in. Why? Do you have any objections?”
Song Wan walked over, and her eyes swept past Rainy who was in Chu Lui’s arms. As her son hated her and her husband was cold to her, she no longer liked this child anymore. Even though the child was her biological granddaughter, she did not like or want to see her anymore.
“Ah Lui, Xiang Xiang is your daughter, too. She can’t see you every day. I only let her play in your room for a while so what’s the problem?”
Chu Lui pressed his lips tightly together and did not say anything. He turned around, walked out, directly walked into a guest room, and placed Rainy carefully onto the bed.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Chu junior. I’ll take good care of Missy and won’t let anyone enter.”
The nanny told Chu Lui softly and guaranteed him.
Chu Lui nodded in understanding and closed the door before going to the living room to wait for Song Wan.
