Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 575 Insincere Well-Wishes

Just as they had walked out of the hospital ward, they coincidentally met with Chu Lui. Chu Lui’s black pupils darkened. Their hands that were tightly clasped together stabbed at his heart. Rainy was still in Gao Yi’s embrace, and they really looked like a family; whereas he looked like an outsider.

“Are you leaving?” He felt as if cotton was stuck in his throat, every word was uttered with difficulty.

“Yes, Rainy has been discharged. Isn’t that right?” Gao Yi answered matter-of-factly. To Rainy, right now, he was her Daddy. It was not that he was selfish. On the contrary, he really loved them. Xia Ruoxin and Rainy, he didn’t want to leave any of them.

They were disposed of by Chu Lui once. Now, he wanted them back again. Sorry, it wasn’t going to be such an easy feat. He wasn’t going to allow it.

Chu Lui did love them, but he loved them more.

“Yes.” Rainy firmly nodded her head. “Rainy wants to go home with Daddy.” Her small face stuck next to Gao Yi’s face, evidently intimate. She really did love this Daddy.

“Rainy finally has a Daddy as well.” Thinking up to here, her small face smiled a lot more sweetly. However, seeing her like this made Chu Lui’s heart hurt. As if it was suddenly stabbed with a needle.

Rainy, actually, I’m your father. How he wished he could say the truth. It was just that he had no reason and no authority to say it out loud. Everybody said that he wasn’t worthy, and yes, he wasn’t.

“We’ll be leaving. Thank you.” Xia Ruoxin bowed to Chu Lui. Her hands tightly gripped onto Gao Yi’s. It seemed that this was the only way that she could bring herself to face this man-to face everything happening now.

“It’s fine. She’s my daughter as well, isn’t she?” Chu Lui stared wistfully at the child in Gao Yi’s arms. His voice was extremely hoarse as he spoke. From the start to the end, he never got to hear his daughter call him ‘Daddy’.

“Will I be able to see her again in the future?” Chu Lui asked somewhat warily. Chu Lui, who had always been cold and tough, also had a day when he would be afraid of getting rejected. In this world, he was always the one to reject people. There was never a time when he was rejected by others.

“Sorry, you might not be able to see her again.” Gao Yi tightened his arms around Rainy. “Ruoxin and I are preparing to move to England. Of course, together with Rainy. We’ll be getting married soon, and we’ll provide Rainy with a happy family.”

Chu Lui’s face paled. “Then, congratulations,” he spoke with a hoarse voice. His calm face certainly remained composed. He turned around, and at that moment, without anybody seeing, an immense sense of despair flashed across his serene black pupils.

They were leaving, and they were bringing Rainy with them. Furthermore, they were going to get married and start living together. He had always loved this woman and his daughter. What was he going to do? Who could tell him what to do?

“Thank you for your well-wishes.” Gao Yi tightly gripped onto Xia Ruoxin’s hand and smiled at her. “Let’s go. I’m starving.”

There was a slight hesitation in Xia Ruoxin’s footsteps. The light in her eyes reflected a sense of determination and perseverance. That’s right, this was her choice. She wasn’t going to regret it.

In the past, no matter how many times they turned their backs around, she was always the one to look back. However, this time, it was his turn to do so. The two of them brushed past each other just like their fateful encounter once before. Perhaps they were once together; however, they were still separated now. It didn’t matter who was at fault. Separation-perhaps that was their destined fate. It was also their life. Moreover, it had become their obsession and also something they had to put down.

The one obsessed with it was Chu Lui, and the one putting it down had become Xia Ruoxin.

“Ruoxin, have you ever felt unwilling to part with something?” Gao Yi pretended to ask casually. She hadn’t spoken a word the entire time, and there was a look of disappointment on her face. Was she disappointed? Or was she feeling reluctant to part with this place?

“What?” Xia Ruoxin lifted her head. She didn’t clearly hear what Gao Yi had asked her.

“I asked if you are feeling reluctant to leave.” Gao Yi simply smiled. However, there was a faint bitterness to his smile. “You know, I won’t force you to do something you don’t want to. It was like that in the past, and it’s still the same now. In the future, it will also continue to be that way.

“If you feel a single bit of reluctance to leave, then right now, you can still turn back. I won’t force you.” He lowered his head and touched Rainy’s small face leaning against his shoulder. The child’s tiny hands obediently clutched onto his neck, her long eyelashes gently covering over her adorable face.

Xia Ruoxin hastily shook her head and held Gao Yi’s hand again as she spoke. “Gao Yi, I mean it. I don’t feel reluctant, and I’m not regretting it. I really want to live with you and Rainy. Please believe me.” She frantically explained. She meant it, she really meant it. She was always somebody who didn’t lie, especially towards Gao Yi.

She said that she was going to leave so she was definitely going to leave. There was nothing here that she couldn’t bear to part with.

“Alright, don’t be nervous. I didn’t say that I don’t believe you.” Gao Yi comforted her. His smile was extremely warm. He placed his hands on her forehead, gently pinning her loose hair neatly.

“Alright, let’s head home. Look, she’s already asleep.” She played too much with the people in the hospital. She was probably too tired to move right now. Gao Yi pointed to Rainy who lay against his shoulder and then squinted his eyes.

“I’m also tired, you’re also tired. Let’s head back home.” He used the word ‘home’, and it made Xia Ruoxin suddenly feel inexplicably touched and moved. Home, their home, it was indeed a beautiful place. How could she abandon it? How could she not love it?

Gao Yi opened the car door and passed Rainy carefully over to Xia Ruoxin. He seemingly loved Rainy more than her Mommy. They got onto the car. Just as the car drove off, none of them knew that there was actually a man following them the entire time, up to the moment their figures disappeared. He was still standing there, watching, waiting.

As if his soul had already left with them, and all that was left was his identity.

“Cousin, let it go.” Du Jingtang stood behind him and gently patted his shoulder. He could guess that Chu Lui must have stood there for quite a while already.

“You knew about it since the start didn’t you?” Chu Lui didn’t turn back. However, it was not hard to hear the hurt in his calm voice.

“Yes.” Du Jingtang nodded his head. “I knew about it. I knew about it even before Rainy got into the accident. I didn’t tell anybody about them heading overseas because this was not something we could change. Whether I said it or not, they were still going to leave. I mean, you found out about it now as well.

“Cousin, they’ll be leaving soon, and they’ll start a new family. However, Cousin, you don’t have to worry. No matter where they go, Rainy will still be your daughter. Your blood will still flow inside of her, and she will still be the Chu family’s child.”
