Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 722: Luckily, it’s You

Chu Lui squinted and hid his powerful gaze.

“I’ll bail you out.”

Ding Yang’s finger stopped. “Why would you bail me out?” He did not understand the reason for this man helping him.

“Thank you for doing that surgery.” Chu Lui looked down, and he took out something from his pocket. It was a girl’s hair clip—a pretty butterfly.

Ding Yang did not understand. “I don’t get it.”

“The girl you removed the kidney from was my daughter.” Chu Lui kept the hair clip in his pocket. “Even the specialists that I hired from overseas said that the surgery you did for her was very successful. Other than removing the kidney, you did not hurt her one bit.”

The hand holding the cigarette shivered. Ding Yang took another puff. “Don’t you hate me? Don’t you want to kill me?” He mocked himself. “I heard of your personality before, and I don’t think you’ll let me off so easily. After all, I did cut your daughter’s blood vessels and remove the kidney with my own two hands. I still remember the feeling of holding the kidney in my hands; it was warm. It was still alive when I took it out.”

Chu Lui extinguished the smoke in his and took another one. One could see slightly that his hand holding the cigarette was trembling.

“So, Mr. Chu, have you decided to release me?” Ding Yang smiled bitterly. On his thin face, one could not see any hint of the past. He was no longer a doctor; he was a criminal.

Chu Lui puffed another smoke out, and it followed down his throat and numbed his lungs. Then, the smoke went out from his nose. It was a cycle, a type of numbing cycle.

“If it wasn’t you, it’ll be someone else; but I’m thankful that it’s you.”

He raised his lips, but there was not a hint of a smile in them and in his eyes. “It was a transaction. If it were other doctors, I’m afraid they would just care about removing the kidney and treat the child like a dead person, but you didn’t. Even though you took away my daughter’s kidney, you did save her indirectly. She’s too young; she can’t take any mistake if her vessels burst or an infection got on her wound.”

Ding Yang sucked a few clouds of smoke into his mouth, and he himself just woke up from the numbness. “Actually...”—he smiled—”I wanted to adopt this kid at the beginning. The madam said that the child was an orphan who didn’t have parents so I agreed. However, I liked the kid the moment I saw her. Did you know? She called me ‘Uncle’ and smiled at me. I have never seen such a pretty child before. I was still thinking who would be so cruel to abandon this girl so I decided that I had to bring her up after I removed her kidney, so that she could still live like a normal person even without one.

“Just that, I didn’t expect them to mess up.”

Even Chu Lui could not believe until now that ‘they messed up’; they had let his Rainy lose a kidney and caused her to suffer for so long.

When Ding Yang walked out, the light outside almost scorched his eyes so he used his hands to block his eyes. He thought he would not see the daylight for the rest of his life, but now, he knew that there was still such a day for him. However, the kidney that he removed was the worst thing he had done in his life; he no longer had the capabilities to be a doctor anymore.

...

Rainy extended her hand and scratched the air from time to time. She still did not dare to move randomly, to laugh, and to cough as she obediently endured through it all. Again, she caught something and let go of her hand.

“What are you looking at?” Xia Ruoxin walked over and shook the milk bottle in her hand before placing it in front of her daughter.

“Mommy, stick your hand out.” Rainy held her own hand tight and placed her hand mysteriously behind her back.

“Okay.” Xia Ruoxin then extended her hand, and Rainy put out her clenched fist and opened it before patting her mother’s hand. “Mommy, Rainy passed all the sunlight to Mommy, the warm sun.”

She smiled until her eyes were in a thin line. If someone looked at her like that, one would not know that she was an incomplete child and that she had a missing kidney. Every time she thought about this, Xia Ruoxin would want to cry.

However, there were a lot of times where she just had to endure it.

She clenched her hands and placed the bottle in front of her daughter. “Mommy has kept Rainy’s light so Rainy needs to accept Mommy’s milk. You need to drink it all.”

Rainy used both her hands to hold her bottle and leaned against her mother to drink it happily... even though she did not like the taste at all.

When Chu Lui walked in, he saw the scene while the light shone on the mother and daughter warmly from the window. Both of them looked similar: they had soft hair, bright eyes, and a sharp chin—features of a beautiful face.

The child was still holding a milk bottle and sucking on it with her cheeks puffed up just like a squirrel. At that time, the atmosphere was warm; and it almost made people not want to disturb it. Thus, he stood at the door and did not move.

Perhaps he was influenced. Temporarily, he forgot everything and just stood there; he smiled, thought, and enjoyed the view.

“Hi, Uncle.” Rainy saw him and waved towards him.

Chu Lui walked over and took out the butterfly hair clip from his pocket and placed it on her head. This fellow loved being pretty.

Rainy touched the hair clip on her head and smiled even sweeter than before.

“Thank you, Uncle.” She went forward and hugged Chu Lui which scared Chu Lui as he was afraid that her wound would be torn open. Luckily, the child could continue drinking her milk without many signs of discomfort. Chu Lui carefully lifted her shirt and saw the long dark scar on her stomach.

Even though it had lightened up, one could still tell that she had major surgery before. Doctor Jian said that it would be hard to remove the scare, but when the child was older, she could go for plastic surgery. No matter what the means were, he had to remove the scar for his daughter.

He hugged his daughter tight and did not dare let her move. Rainy obediently drank the milk in the bottle with the other hand rubbing her eye; she was about to sleep.
