Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 695: Could he Sleep with his Daughter?

Chu Lui’s gaze was cold and harsh, and he had a very obvious hand mark on his face. If it was someone else, perhaps one would find it funny; but in front of Chu Lui’s cold face who had no intentions of smiling, only one that was not afraid of death would laugh at him.

“Uncle Xia, may I know if Xia Yixuan is home?” he asked indifferently.

Xia Mingzheng did not know what Chu Lui was trying to do and also did not know if the expression on Chu Lui’s face was a good or bad one.

“Oh, you’re looking for Yixuan. Yes, she’s here.

“Yixuan, Yixuan...” He ran up the stairs as he called for his daughter.

“Yixuan, come down quick. Chu Lui is here.”

Once the Xia Yixuan upstairs heard the two words ‘Chu Lui’, she was scared until her entire body started shivering.

Her hand was still slightly numbed from the slap. The fear drove her to the point of insanity.

This kid... Xia Mingzheng stood up and was going to get the daughter, who always talked about Chu Lui, down the stairs. Why was she such a coward when the person she kept talking about was here? Actually, in his heart, he was still hoping that he could become in-laws with the Chu family again.

Even though he knew it was not possible... as the two families had already fallen out.

However, there was still a possibility. Even if Chu Lui had recognized the wrong person at the start, there was no denying their relationship for the past few years. It was just like him and Shen Yijun. At the start, he did not like her very much; but after being a couple for almost half their life, they were inseparable.

“Yixuan...!” He yelled again and was going to go upstairs to drag Xia Yixuan down.

“It’s okay, Uncle Xia. I’m here for you.”

Chu Lui still spoke lightly and without much emotion, which made Xia Mingzheng embarrassed.

Why did he not say so earlier? He was still...

Chu Lui did not explain himself. From the moment he entered, he had never said that he was looking for Xia Yixuan. Did Xia Mingzheng still believe that, at this point, he would forget how Xia Yixuan cheated him? If it were so, did he really think Chu Lui was nothing? His four years were ruined for nothing, and did he deserve to stop his family line?

“Ah Lui, what’s the matter?” Xia Mingzheng finally recovered his sense. It was just that his heart was still a bit tense; it was a pity he did not have a son.

“Actually, it’s nothing much.” Chu Lui placed his hand on his knees and started tapping lightly.

“I do not wish to see Xia Yixuan in my office anymore. The reason why I still let her in was because of Auntie Shen. After all, she is Ruoxin’s mother. However, there is a limit to my patience. If it happens again, I can’t guarantee you that I won’t throw her down the building.

“The Xia household has a reputation around here. I believe Uncle Xia wouldn’t want to ruin your name, right?”

Xia Mingzheng felt his face burning and could only smile dryly.

“Also...”—Chu Lui caressed his face—”your beloved has a pretty good wrist power. What a pity she is of the wrong gender. Look at the way she hits people; it’s not bad, isn’t it? Did she learn it from you, Uncle Xia?”

Xia Mingzheng’s face burned even more strongly. He was speechless.

Chu Lui stood up, and he did not wish to step foot into the Xia household ever again. This place was not only Xia Ruoxin’s nightmare; it was also his.

When he was about to go back, Shen Yijun ran down from upstairs.

“Chu Lui, Ruoxin, where’s my Xinxin?”

Chu Lui still did not have a good impression of Shen Yijun. This kind of women was not deserving to be called a mother. Of course, he was the same; he was not a good husband.

“I think she doesn’t want to see you.” His facial expression was distant and cold.

“Without you, she’s having a good life. Even though it is a bit tough, she is still independent and does not depend or owe anyone anything.”

It was as if that sentence had sucked away all of Shen Yijun’s energy. Her pale lips quivered, and she could not say a word.

...

Not sure when, but it was already dark outside. In a faraway place, the sun that looked like a burnt cloud was like fog and snow.

At night, Chu Lui came over to eat again. In the meantime, both of them were still using their usual way of interaction. They did not talk much and were just eating their own food.

“I went to the Xia household today,” Chu Lui suddenly said as if it was not intentional but on purpose at the same time.

The chopsticks in Xia Ruoxin’s hand stopped for a while before she continued to take food for herself nonchalantly.

“She asked about you.”

“Really?” Xia Ruoxin said without a care.

“I don’t need her anymore.”

Suddenly, Chu Lui felt his heart sink. He really wanted to ask: ‘Then, what about me? Do you still want me?’

Just that—in the end, he did not say it out loud; and he did not ask. He was afraid he would get the same reply of ‘whatever, it’s okay; I don’t need it anymore’.

...

The corner of the living room was the small dumb cat’s territory. Rainy was currently having a staring contest with the cat. She carefully picked up the cat and placed it beside her face; she loved the fluffy feeling.

The silly cat licked its small owner’s face before curling up into a ball and accompanying its small owner.

“Can I sleep with Rainy tonight?”

Chu Lui asked Xia Ruoxin after dinner. Actually, it was a request. Ever since he knew that he had a daughter, he never had the chance to sleep with her, tell her bedtime stories, wash her feet, or hear her calling for Daddy because she needed milk.

Xia Ruoxin stood up and started clearing the table. When Chu Lui thought she would not reply and would not agree, he heard her warm voice.

“If she was willing to go with you, I have no opinion.”

After this, she brought the bowls back into the kitchen.

Chu Lui’s face finally cleared up, and all the dark aura had gone away. Even though he still did not smile, the lips that were curved up; and the ice-cold eyes had actually melted.

Chu Lui carried Rainy in one hand and her Dolly in the other to go out. The small princess only knew that she was going to sleep with Uncle today and did not have any objections to it.

After she opened the door, Rainy was as if in her own home. Xia Ruoxin had no clue that the house Chu Lui lived in was renovated in the exact same way as hers; even the furniture and household appliances were almost the same.

It was because of their similarity so Rainy could not differentiate if it was her home or not.

“Come on, baby, let’s wash our feet.”

Chu Lui carried his daughter and placed her on a stool. He took a bucket of water over, and once his big hand touched his daughter’s foot, Rainy started giggling.
