“Good.” Gao Yi finally stopped worrying. The sincere smile on Xia Ruoxin’s face told him that she was not being forced into this. At last, he felt that he had done the right thing. He had wanted her to have an easier life, not being overly worried.

“Next, we have some games especially for parents and children. Parents will need to join us. Can I ask all the families to prepare yourselves and bring your babies with you?”

As soon as the teacher was done talking, the children became very excited, not to mention the parents.

“Ruoxin, let’s do our best and set a good example for Rainy.” Gao Yi took Xia Ruoxin’s hand and gripped tightly.

“Yes, I will.” Xia Ruoxin did not want to embarrass her daughter. She looked into the little girl’s eyes to let her know that she would do her best no matter what.

However, this parent-child activity was obviously a bit too tough for Xia Ruoxin and Gao Yi who were not a married couple. It involved intimate action, and it made Xia Ruoxin uncomfortable that she blushed.

Gao Yi was much more natural than she was. His actions were nimble, and he did everything perfectly.

“Daddy.” Rainy had become addicted to calling him ‘Daddy’. She ran speedily over to Gao Yi and hugged both his legs. Gao Yi smiled as he carried her into his arms, and then he reached out with one of his hands and embraced Xia Ruoxin.

“Ruoxin, we came in first.”

Rather than stopping him, Xia Ruoxin could feel the emotions of bliss welling up inside her, and it made her smile seemed more delightful.

This family was the envy of many others; an adorable daughter, a beautiful wife, and an extremely handsome and gentle father.

Rainy’s spirits remained high as she continued to put her arms around Gao Yi’s neck. She had a father. Even if it was only for one day, she already felt contented.

...

In the hospital, Gao Yi removed his doctor’s robe and took his jacket which had been hanging at a side.

“You’re knocking off so early? Going to visit your girlfriend?” Coincidentally, his colleague had come closer. He was wondering about the aura surrounding Gao Yi because the latter always left work on the dot. He did not have any other special activities, and even when his colleagues invited him to dinner, he would not join them.

“I have to pick my daughter up.” Gao Yi’s lips curled up ever so slightly while the smile on his colleague’s froze. A daughter? It couldn’t be. He actually had a daughter.

“Is there anything else?” Gao Yi looked back as he asked his colleague who stood rooted on the spot. How much longer did the man expect him to stand here for? He had to leave soon, or Rainy would panic if she had to wait for a long time.

“Ah, nothing. Nothing at all.” His colleague waved his hands in a hurry as he followed Gao Yi out of the room. The man shuffled his feet obviously still trying to digest the new information. Gao Yi had not been working long in this hospital. He had outstanding academics, and his surgical skills were on par with his qualification. Even his appearance had been perfect.

He was the prince charming of the numerous female doctors and nurses in the hospital. Now, the prince was gone because he already had a daughter.

Gao Yi took out his car keys and opened the door. He looked at his watch which he had been wearing on his wrist and made a mental note to move quickly. He wondered if Rainy would cry. Normally, he was the one to pick Rainy up from school. Xia Ruoxin would do it if he was occupied. He did not want to tax her which was why he would always try to help her in any way he could.

The car came to a stop. It was the end of the school day. The teachers would hand their pupils over to their respective parent individually. With their sense of responsibility, the parents could send their children to school without any worries.

Rainy was carrying a little school bag with its straps over her shoulders. She stood aside while her eyes darted back and forth at the surroundings.

Rainy saw Gao Yi coming closer, and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

“Daddy...”

She reached out with her short hands. Her eyes had become a pair of crescents as she smiled.

The teacher carried Rainy up and hand her over to Gao Yi.

“Has she been obedient today?” Gao Yi carried Rainy up using one hand. She had grown bigger and gained some weight. He asked the young teacher who started to blush under his intense scrutiny.

He was such a charming man. Even though he was married with a child, he remained extremely attractive. To face him every day and talking to her like this was more than she could handle.

Gao Yi started to frown, and he was reluctant to repeat his question again.

“Oh, she has been good. Very obedient. Rainy may as well be the most obedient child we have in this school.” The teacher regained her senses after a long time, and she answered hurriedly, feeling greatly embarrassed by her behavior.

Oh my god. What do I do? He’s beginning to hate me.

“Mmm, that’s great. Thank you.” Gao Yi carried Rainy and started to turn away. His hand was covering the top of her head. The teacher stood behind as her eyes continued to follow them. How she wished she could just approach them and bark in obedience.

“Don’t you think about it. With such a beautiful daughter, his wife must be gorgeous. How are you going to compete with her?” Someone patted the teacher’s shoulder. “In this world, you can eat more than you can afford to. However, you better stop this dream.”

“Oh, right. I’ve seen her,” someone else said. “That child’s mother is very beautiful, and they even came first during the parent-child competition.”

The more she heard, the lower the teacher’s head hung.

She did not even have the time to fantasize. Her illusion had been crushed.

Gao Yi carried Rainy into the car. All the while, Rainy’s eyes did not leave him.

“What’s wrong?” Are you hungry?” Gao Yi put his hand down and rested it on Rainy.

“Uncle, our teacher likes you a lot.” Her childish voice sounded very pleasant. Gao Yi was caressing her newly grown hair. It looked longer now. Very soon, she would be able to tie her hair into braids.

This child. He wondered what was going on in that tiny brain of hers.

“Uncle, do you like her?” Rainy asked as she blinked her eyes at him adorably. It was only when they were in front of outsiders would she call him ‘Daddy’. When it was just the both of them, she would still call him ‘Uncle’ because he had never been her father, just her uncle.

“What do you think?” Gao Yi countered, asking the little girl. Both his hands were on the steering wheel.

Rainy squeezed her little frame closer against Gao Yi. She replied meekly, “I know that you will definitely not like her because you like Mommy.”

“Ha. What a smart kid.” Gao Yi couldn’t help but laugh as he reached out with one hand and rubbed her head lovingly. A child so young could see through him. Why was it that after such a long time, that woman remained oblivious? How could she not know how he felt? After all, his actions had been obvious. Perhaps, he had not tried hard enough? Or was the woman born dumb?
