Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 717: Some things She had to Pull Through Herself

Then, he stood up and held Xia Ruoxin’s shoulders. “Ruoxin, let her sleep peacefully. Let’s not disturb her and just watch from here, okay? There are some things that she had to pull through on her own like pain, fear, and things that she would find out in the near future but not now.”

Xia Ruoxin shuddered before placing her daughter down carefully and putting the blanket on her. However, she did not leave the bed. When she turned around, she saw that Chu Lui was still standing; and his eyes were bloodshot. One could tell that he did not sleep for the past few days. Actually, she knew that Chu Lui would put some sort of sleeping pill into her meal every day while he had not slept at all and was watching over his daughter. Perhaps in the past, she thought that Chu Lui was not a good father, but now she knew that he was all along.

“Thank you.” She smiled at him; the smile was genuine.

She thanked him for tirelessly taking care of Rainy. If he was not here and she was alone, she definitely would not have pulled through.

“It’s my fault. I did wrong.” Chu Lui moved his hand to her hair and let her lean on himself. “I didn’t let you guys have a good life, and I did not do my responsibility as a father. I didn’t save her the last time, and this time, my mom...”

When he spoke until here, he could not continue anymore. This kind of mistake, this sick twist of fate, this ending... up till now, they still could not accept and could not forgive it.

“It’s not your fault.” Xia Ruoxin understood that whatever Song Wan did was behind Chu Lui and Chu Jiang’s back. Even though Chu Lui was not a good person, he would not have done something like this. Like what he said—if it really reached that stage, he would rather donate his own kidney than steal other people’s so it would be unfair to blame this incident on him and his father.

Hence, she did not blame them; but she did not want to see Song Wan ever again.

The woman that once looked after her like a mother... was gone.

For Chu Xiang, she sold her own conscience.

There was a knock on the door. Chu Lui stood up and opened the door to let a tired Doctor Jian walk in. Once he saw the child sleeping, he heaved a sigh of relief.

“Did she wake up? Was she behaving well?” He asked as he walked over to carefully remove the blanket and look at Rainy’s wound. When he saw the bandage, he was relieved. Luckily, it did not tear.

If it tore again, it would be a disaster to such a small child.

“Mm. She was obedient, and she hurt and cried. However, she did not move.” Chu Lui gently touched his daughter’s face; it was cold. This child’s temperature is either hot or cold.

Doctor Jian had already said that the child’s body was weak and had not recovered in many aspects. She needed a long time to recuperate, and even if she did, she could not go back to the past. After all, there was one less kidney inside her body.

“This child was still quite well-behaved, unlike the other one whose wound had already torn a few times. I just finished her surgery, and her condition was worse than I expected.”

Chu Lui pressed his lips tightly together, and his face darkened.

“Jian, you did surgery for Chu Xiang?”

“Yeah.” Doctor Jian did not hide it. “I helped the other kid do surgery, and it was successful. Don’t worry.” He smiled, but it was not very sincere. “I won’t ask further about the child. I came here only to help this fellow here.

“She’s the prettiest, bravest, and cutest kid I have ever seen.”

He gently caressed Rainy’s cheeks.

“Angel, you’ll definitely get well. You’re a gift from heaven.”

After he finished talking, he walked out as he had to research another medical example. Chu Lui leaned against the hospital bed, and his face was as cold as ice.

He whipped out his phone and walked out.

“Doctor White, it’s me. We plan to transfer hospitals tomorrow. Please arrange the best ward you have for me, and I’ll bring Doctor Jian over so do work with him. Also, Doctor Jian is the private doctor hired for my daughter only. He should be responsible for only my daughter.”

At that time, Su Yunfei came over and heard Chu Lui’s call. Based on his harsh tone and the angry aura, she knew that something was not right. Did that sister of hers do something wrong again?

“Ah Lui,” Su Yunfei called.

“Auntie.” Chu Lui put his phone down and moved his lips up slightly. It could be considered as a smile; anyway, Su Yunfei was used to his face and did not take much notice.

She passed the items in her hands to Chu Lui. “The nanny made them. You should eat a little and give some to Rainy. How’s Rainy now? Has she woken up?”

“Nope.” Chu Lui shook his head. “She just fell asleep.”

“It’s good that she’s sleeping.” Su Yunfei sighed. “She wouldn’t hurt in her sleep.”

Yes, everyone knew that it would not hurt in her sleep, but they could not let the child sleep forever. Some pain, she still had to endure them and take this step forward.

“Oh, Ah Lui. Did your mom do something again?” Su Yunfei asked Chu Lui carefully.

“Mm.” Chu Lui’s softly said, “She asked Doctor Jian to leave and do surgery for Chu Xiang. Rainy woke up crying in pain and went back to sleep in pain.”

“Your mom is really...”

Su Yunfei could not take it and rubbed her forehead. “Does she even know how to be a granny?” Everyone would treat their own granddaughters better, but how did this Big Sister think? Why must she be nicer to others? Was the adopted one really better than biological?”

No. She could not take it lying anymore. If her Big Sister did not want Rainy, then she would bring Rainy home to raise without using a penny from the Chu family.

When Su Yunfei and Song Wan were young, they were the best of friends and were as close as sisters. Afterward, when Su Yunfei married Du Bin, their relationship became even closer. As to why Song Wan’s last name was Song while Du Bin’s was Du, it was because one of them followed their mother and the other followed their father. At the end of the day, they were still biological siblings. Su Yunfei was thinking that Song Wan would still listen to her words.

At that time, Song Wan was still looking after Chu Xiang. After another operation, Chu Xiang looked even weaker than before. It had not been a few days since her chubby body became as thin as a branch.

“Big Sister, I’m here.”

Su Yunfei walked in and placed the items in her hand on the table. Since she brought some food over to the other side, she had to bring some of them here as well.
