Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 460 - Best Not to Meet Again



However, due to the cold weather, she was wearing multiple layers of clothing. On top of that, she had a hat on her head and a mask over her face. He couldn’t see her face to make out her features properly. Nevertheless, he gathered she must be a beautiful child just by looking at her eyes and the shape of her face.

It was a pity that she wasn’t his child.

Chu Lui reached out. He had the sudden urge to see how the little girl looked. In fact, he was really very fond of children.

“It is difficult for you to carry her with your arm like this. Give her to me.”

Chu Lui reached out. He meant it when he said he wasn’t upset with the child. Neither did he had the urge to beat her up. However, Rainy turned away abruptly and hugged her mother’s neck tightly when she saw his hand in front of her face.

For the first time, Chu Lui experienced embarrassment. He knew his face looked fierce but not enough for a child to dislike him. Right now, he could obviously feel the disgust from the child.

He put his hand down slowly. Alas, even a child was disgusted with him at a time like this.

Xia Ruoxin turned and walked away with her daughter in her arms. It would be best if she didn’t see him ever again.

She sent her daughter through the gate of the kindergarten. Then, she tidied Rainy’s clothes. “I will pick you up this afternoon. Shall we go for cake later?”

“Mmm,” Rainy answered obediently. “Mommy.” She pulled Xia Ruoxin’s hand.

“What is it?” Xia Ruoxin squatted down in front of her daughter and cupped her child’s face in her hands. “You told me you will be brave and go to school yourself. You want to learn new things to buy me lots of dolls. Right? What made you change your mind so quickly? Fine, you can come with me to the art studio,” she said as she stood up and held her daughter’s hand.

Rainy’s hand felt warm to her touch and finally put her at ease. Before Gao Yi left, he had instructed not to let Rainy catch a cold. The thing that worried her the most was her daughter catching a cold or having a fever, especially now which was late autumn. The kindergarten was not a suitable environment for her. Rainy’s immunity was weaker than most children. After all, she had just recovered from a major

illness.

Rainy removed the mask from her face exposing her pink cheeks, chubby face, a pair of big eyes, and a small rosy mouth. It was a combination that made her beautiful and looked exactly like her mother. A pretty mother would definitely have a beautiful baby.

“Mommy, I want to go to school.” Rainy was a child with a stubborn nature. She always meant what she said.

“Go.” Xia Ruoxin stood up and handed her daughter to the teacher.

The teacher held her soft little hand. She was bedazzled by Rainy’s good looks when she laid her eyes on the little girl once more. After all, Rainy was the most beautiful and obedient child in the whole kindergarten. Even the teachers were fond of her.

“Rainy, say goodbye to your mother,” the teacher said as she smiled at Rainy.

Rainy reached out and waved her little hand at Xia Ruoxin.

“Bye, bye, Mommy.”

“Okay, bye, Rainy.” Xia Ruoxin, too, stretched her hand out and waved at her daughter.

Rainy went into the classroom obediently with her teacher while Xia Ruoxin double-checked to ensure that her scarf was placed properly. Then, she turned around and made her way to the art studio. It would be a busy day today because the students would be coming for lessons.

After a busy afternoon, she was almost done at the art studio.

“Ruoxin, are you going to pick Rainy from school?” Su Li asked Xia Ruoxin.

“Yes. Her class is about to end in kindergarten.” Xia Ruoxin tidied up the things on her desk one by one. Otherwise, it would be too messy for her to find anything tomorrow.

“Why don’t you leave first? I can take over from here.” Su Li wanted to do it herself. She couldn’t let the Little Beauty wait. A child’s mind was sensitive; she would become anxious and cry if she had to wait for long.

Xia Ruoxin didn’t turn her offer away. She tidied for a while longer before she finally took her belongings and left. The wind outside was so much colder when she came out. Winter would be here very soon. However, she felt that it was already here.

She trotted all the way to the kindergarten. She arrived early hoping to pick her daughter up sooner.

“Rainy, your mother is here.” The teacher pulled Rainy’s hat down, and it almost covered the girls’ eyes. She knew this child was weak because she had just recovered from a major illness. That’s why she couldn’t afford to be cold.

Rainy shook her little head and pulled her head down with her own hands. Then, she ran to her mother and hugged her legs.

“Mommy, you are here to pick me up.”

Rainy rubbed her face against her mother’s legs happily. Oh, she felt so blessed. Her mother arrived so early to pick her up.

“Wear your mask.” Xia Ruoxin adjusted the mask on Rainy’s face to make sure she was wearing it properly. It would help to prevent her from catching a cold. Rainy wore it obediently. Although it wasn’t very comfortable, she didn’t attempt to remove it.

Xia Ruoxin carried her daughter before she turned around and smiled at the

teacher standing behind her.

“Miss Xiaoning, I’m sorry, but Rainy won’t be coming to school tomorrow. We’ll decide when the weather is better.”

“Alright.” The teacher nodded her head continuously in agreement. “I was going to talk to you about it, too. Two of our students had a fever today. We have sent them home earlier. This being the flu season, many children tend to fall sick. Rainy’s immunity is weaker than an average child so I think it’s best if she doesn’t come to school for the time being.”

“Thank you, Miss Xiaoning.” Xia Ruoxin pressed her daughter’s head into her chest. She was very appreciative of the teacher’s reminder. Besides, Miss Xiaoning had always taken very good care of Rainy. Otherwise, Xia Ruoxin would worry whenever her daughter was at school. Rainy might be an intelligent child, but her mind was sensitive because of her young age. Now that she was spending time with children her age, she became more outgoing and cheerful. Xia Ruoxin felt at ease. However, it was a pity that Rainy’s immunity was weaker than other children. Gao Yi had assured her it would recover fully once she was all grown up.

“Mommy, are we going home?” Rainy tugged at Xia Ruoxin’s sleeve. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she merely bit on her tiny finger and held her tongue.

Xia Ruoxin carried Rainy and stood in the freezing cold wind. It kept blowing at them so Xia Ruoxin used her slender body to block it from Rainy. Throughout these years, she had been using her weak body to shield Rainy and protect her.

They arrived outside the cake house. She stopped and carried her daughter in one hand as she pushed the door open with another. The warmth in the restaurant caused her eyes to tear up, blurring everything with a layer of fog.
