Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 662: Breaking her Plate

She was not worried about where the child had gone. Even though the man was not very good at much, but the least he could do was look after a child.

The man outside probably would not be too happy to hear Xia Ruoxin’s opinion of him.

As he was a decisive, efficient, and successful CEO of a big corporation; Xia Ruoxin was probably the only person to say that he was not good for much.

After a while, Chu Lui walked in with Rainy in his arms, with her bowl in his other hand. The bowl was completely empty.

“Mommy.” Rainy struggled out of Chu Lui’s embrace and ran to hug her mother’s legs.

Xia Ruoxin bent down and caressed her daughter’s chubby face. “You’re done eating?”

“En.” Rainy nodded, breaking into a big grin. Her face was radiant and beaming. It was hard to imagine she had been a frail, small child in a hospital not long ago.

“Good girl. Rainy’s amazing.” Xia Ruoxin praised her daughter. “You even managed to finish such a huge food of rice.”

Rainy reached out and pointed at the man behind her. “Uncle’s a good boy; he finished the whole bowl of rice.”

Xia Ruoxin, “...”

Chu Lui, “...”

Did you have to expose your own father like this?

Chu Lui stood there awkwardly with the bowl in his hands, its contents in his stomach.

Xia Ruoxin tried to pick her daughter up but struggled with one hand.

“I’ll do it; your hand is not in good shape.”

Xia Ruoxin narrowed her eyes at his words as she looked at him.

And whose fault is that?

Who’s responsible for this?

Who did this?

However, she did not stop him this time. She had thought it all through. She was not refusing the free nanny; it was not like he could take Rainy from her.

“Give it to me.” She reached out towards Chu Lui.

The man was confused.

“What?”

Xia Ruoxin doubted the man’s IQ for an instant. His intelligence seemed to diminish with age.

She directly removed the small bowl and spoon from the man’s hand without repeating herself before proceeding to the kitchen where she cleaned them.

“She hasn’t eaten yet so just give her some food later. You can bring her out to eat if you’d like.”

With that, she returned to her room and shut the door behind her.

She really did not like the man now and wanted to be as far from him as possible. However, she did trust him, and she could entrust him with Rainy.

After twenty years, she understood the man well.

He was cold, but he was not heartless.

He could be vicious but never to his family.

He was firm, and she did not want to pursue the matter any further.

Outside the door, Chu Lui carried his daughter up in a flurry of excitement as he kissed her. “Baby, Dad—no, Uncle’s really happy to be able to eat with Rainy again.”

Rainy was a little confused. She touched her face confusedly as she looked between the door and Chu Lui. However, when the man placed a spoon next to her mouth, she took it in all the same.

Xia Ruoxin did not prepare a lot of food, just enough for herself and Rainy. By the time Chu Lui was done feeding Rainy, there was barely anything left for him, but he finished all the food just the same.

Xia Ruoxin was indeed really busy. She still owed others a dozen paintings. She had to work overtime to finish them. She was hoping to get a loan enough to buy a small house and repay it in installments.

The current place was a little too small for her liking. She was used to bigger houses, and Rainy had to go to school in the future. This place was not very convenient either. In the case of bad weather, it would be tough for her to get around since she did not know how to drive.

One had to plan for the future, right?

Chu Lui was never part of her plans. They had nothing to do with each other, and neither had the two families. She was just getting in the zone when she heard a commotion from outside. Something seemed to have been broken.

She placed her brush down and hurried out. The noise seemed to be coming from her kitchen.

She was stunned by what she saw when she entered.

“Chu Lui!”

“En?”

“Get out.” She pointed towards the outside, her eyes full of fire.

“Sorry, I was just trying to help.” Chu Lui shrank into a corner of the kitchen, his hand still carrying Rainy. The little girl sucked on her tiny fingers, knowing that she had made a mistake.

The kitchen was barely big enough for one, not to mention three. Even though Rainy was small and barely took up any space, the man’s size made up for that. Besides, the kitchen did not have a lot of headroom, and he had to bend over to fit himself into the confined area.

Fragments were scattered on the floor, and there were soap duds on his hands.

This was not the first time that CEO Chu had done the dishes, but it ended in failure, simply because these bowls were not made of plastic.

He broke a grand total of two bowls and three plates. Everything made of ceramics was broken, except for Rainy’s which was almost impossible to break.

“Out.” Xia Ruoxin picked up Rainy from the man. She then opened the door and threw the man out as Rainy hugged her door and sat quietly on the side.

Chu Lui was chased out of the house with soap and water on his clothes, but he was not mad.

Bang! Xia Ruoxin locked the troublemaker outside the door. Out of sight, out of mind.

She put her hand on her waist and took a deep breath as if holding something in until she finally managed to even her emotions. With a resigned expression, she walked into the kitchen and cleaned up the fragments. These were all the crockery she had. What was she going to eat with now?

It was much later when she was done cleaning up.
