Chapter 800: There’s a Chance to Turn Back

Chu Lui got his daughter’s favorite dishes and fed her. Rainy ate the food her father fed her obediently without being picky. She was like Chu Lui in that aspect. Even though Chu Lui was picky, he could eat really simply as well. Of course, he could eat extravagantly as well, but he usually just ate whatever was in front of him.

Rainy was the same. She ate whatever she was fed. Vegetables were the exception, of course, just like her father.

Chu Lui fed her another spoonful of food. He could not help but smile when he saw that she was happy.

“Daddy.” At this point, he heard a relatively familiar voice by his ear. He knew who it was without even having to guess.

It was Chu Xiang.

The only other person in this world who could call his daddy. Other than Rainy, it was Chu Xiang.

Rainy’s ‘daddy’ was his greatest salvation, but the other child’s ‘daddy’ was sarcastic to him. He knew exactly how the child came about.

Every time he saw her, he was reminded of the fact that he could not have any more children.

“Are you full yet?” He wiped his daughter’s face as he fed her another spoonful of food.

Rainy shook her head.

“Daddy, there’s still space in Rainy’s tummy. I can still fit a lot of food in it.”

Chu Lui fed her another spoonful, and Rainy ate it all.

By then, Chu Xiang had run over. “Daddy.” She tugged on Chu Lui’s clothes.

“Why are you here? Where’s your granny?” he asked plainly with a smile.

Chu Xiang bit her lips, grievance written all over her face. The people around them were beginning to gossip. How could he treat his daughters so unequally? He was just a good father, and now, he was so cold to the child.

Chu Xiang bit her lips again. “Granny will be here soon.” As she spoke, she heard Song Wan calling for her.

“Xiang Xiang, why are you running around? What if I lose you?” As she spoke, Song Wan hurried over and gripped Chu Xiang’s small hands tightly. What if the child had run into bad people?

“Granny...” Chu Xiang held Song Wan’s hands, her voice choked up and pitiful.

“Daddy’s not talking to Xiang Xiang.”

Of course, Song Wan had spotted her son in the first instance; and she knew of his aloofness towards Chu Xiang. Even though she knew that her son did not like this daughter of his, but this was the child she had brought him. She had hoped that he would give her a little more respect.

Chu Lui took the sunglasses out and placed it on his daughter’s face. “Let’s go, let’s go home.” He pinched the child’s face and picked her up. He pressed her face into his chest, protecting her from Song Wan and Chu Xiang’s hostility.

“Mom, I’ll make the first move.”

Song Wan gripped Chu Xiang’s hand tightly as she gritted her teeth. The child was jealous of the sunglasses that Chu Lui had just given Rainy. She had seen them in his study and tried them on secretly. She had thought that they were Daddy’s gift to her. She had been waiting for them, but it turned out that it was for Mei Mei.

She lowered her head and rubbed her feet against the ground. Tears streamed down her face, and resentment built up in her.

If only Mei Mei didn’t exist. Then, Daddy would be all mine.

I want to sell Mei Mei away. I have to sell Mei Mei away.

Chu Lui did not stay for long. He walked out of the crowd with Rainy in his arms. She looked up and met Chu Xiang’s eyes. They were red with fury as if she were about to devour Rainy. Rainy was terrified and hid back into her father’s arms.

“Daddy.”

“En? What’s wrong” Chu Lui held his daughter’s hands.

“Daddy, if Rainy were lost, would you find me?”

Rainy asked as she looked up and tilted her head.

“I will.” Chu Lui hugged his daughter even tighter. “No one in this world can take Rainy from Daddy. If Rainy were lost, I would give everything I have to find Rainy, just like I did with mommy.”

Rainy rubbed her face against Chu Lui’s chest. She had the best father in the world. En, no matter where she was, Daddy would find her and bring her back. She did not remember much, but this was one thing she remembered.

When Song Wan returned, she was not in a good mood. She began to complain to Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang’s ears were ringing from all her complaints recently, but he could not leave as she continued in this state. Else, the mother and son might become enemies.

He had no choice but to sit down with Song Wan and talk about what they had been talking about countless times. He did not want to bring it up, but he did not have much of a choice.

“Wanwan...” He called out Song Wan’s name.

Wanwan... it had been a long time since she heard Chu Jiang call her that.

“What?” She turned her face away, throwing her tantrum.

Chu Jiang sighed and placed his hand on her shoulder. No matter what, they had been married for decades and been through a lot. They had lived together for so long. There was no way he could stay mad at her even though there were times that he wanted to strangle her.

In the end, he could not. He did not want her to be estranged from everybody; neither did he want her and their son to become enemies.

“You...” He patted her shoulder. “Why are you throwing tantrums with our son? No matter what, he’s still our son.”

“He’s the one going against me, no?” Song Wan did not feel like she was in the wrong.

“You’re still saying this?” Chu Jiang’s face turned gloomy. His change in expression reminded Song Wan of something. She then kept quiet, clearly feeling guilty.

“I really didn’t know about the thing with Rainy. I really didn’t mean to do that.” This was the first time Song Wan was admitting to her mistake, but the deed had already been done. She wanted to change and to make things up, but it was impossible.

“I can’t crack open Xiang Xiang’s body and return her kidney? That’s my granddaughter; I can’t bear to do that.” She had never expected things to turn out like this, she really did not. However, they seemed to be drifting further and further apart; and then could not go back to the way things were anymore.

“It’s okay, we can still turn back.” Chu Jiang held her hand tightly. “It’s not too late.”
