Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 724: Hit by a Woman

She did not know if she was saying the truth or sarcasm. Perhaps she was the only one who understood in the entire Chu family.

Chu Lui held his daughter’s hand and accompanied her to walk to digest her food. Even though the child’s leg was short, she ran really fast; and he was happy that he could be so close to his daughter. In the past, his daughter did not like him, hated him, and even ostracized him. It was not easy for her to slowly accept him so, naturally, he would dote on this daughter... the only child in his life.

When he was about to say something to Rainy, someone came in and directly reached out her hand and slapped his face. Out of instinct, he pulled Rainy’s small arm hard.

Then, he heard the child sit on the floor and started crying.

Chu Lui was startled by his daughter and did not care about his face. Hurriedly, he carried his daughter up and leaned her head against his forehead. “Tell Daddy, what’s wrong? Does your stomach hurt?” He said as tears started welling up in his eyes. He was scared, petrified.

Rainy cried until she could not catch her breath and simply could not answer his question. Chu Lui turned around and saw Song Wan standing in front of him with her hand in the air.

“Mom...”

His sentence was cold and hard to bear. If the person in front was not Song Wan, Chu Lui would have killed her.

At that time, Xia Ruoxin came over and saw Rainy crying. She was frightened, hurriedly carried her daughter, and touched her forehead. “What’s wrong, baby? Tell Mommy, where does it hurt?”

Rainy pointed at her arm. “Mommy, my arm hurts.”

Xia Ruoxin relaxed a little. “It’s okay. Maybe, your arm dislocated; she was like that last time.” She did not dare move her arm as she turned around and brought Rainy to the doctor. As for their mother and son’s business, she did not care.

Of course, she did see the red palm mark on Chu Lui’s face.

This was between the mother and son. However, Song Wan owed her one. She remembered.

She carried her daughter and inched towards Song Wan, step by step.

Instinctively, Song Wan stepped back and felt an unexplainable fear in her heart.

“Ruoxin...”

Chu Lui suddenly grabbed her arm. “Ruoxin, bring Rainy to the doctor first. I’ll handle it here.”

“You will handle it?” Xia Ruoxin sneered. “There’s really no one good in your Chu family. You won’t even let a child go. I really regret coming back in the first place.”

She lowered her head and pressed her daughter’s face against her chest.

Rainy was still crying, and her small hands clutched her mother’s clothes without letting go.

She felt pain for her daughter, but she hated Song Wan. She remembered the person that made her daughter lose her kidney. She remembered it, and she would never forget it for the rest of her life.

Suddenly, she raised her hand. Piak! Her hand flung on Song Wan’s face.

She was a senior and...

And Chu Lui’s mother.

She was...

However, she was not Xia Ruoxin’s mother.

The nice lady that felt like a mother to her of the past was long gone.

“Please stay far away from my daughter from now on.” She enunciated each word carefully. Song Wan’s face was red. After all these years, Xia Ruoxin was the first person to hit her. She held her face and did not respond.

Xia Ruoxin laughed. This was how they were mother and son, right?

“Don’t worry, Rainy. If anyone dares to hurt you again, Mommy will definitely kill her. Who cares if she’s Chu Lui’s mother, your Granny.”

Song Wan felt a chill down her spine as if her entire body was doused in water; it was cold until she shuddered.

Chu Lui did not stop all of this. He only stood at the side and felt the burn on his face.

After Xia Ruoxin left, he then walked over to Song Wan.

“Mom, I want to know why.” Chu Lui placed his hands in his pockets and clenched them tightly.

What did he do wrong? What did his daughter do wrong?

Song Wan’s hand was still numb. Actually, when she slapped him, she regretted it, too. She never thought that it would hurt Rainy. If she knew, she would not have done it.

However, her pride did not allow her to lower her head and admit her fault.

“Chu Lui, do you want to let Xiang Xiang die so you chased Doctor Jian home?” Song Wan clenched his teeth. That expression really looked like she hated Chu Lui to the bones.

“Xiang Xiang is your daughter. Chu Lui, how could you be so heartless? Do you not want your daughter to live?”

“Mom, you know it.” Chu Lui smiled, but it was not sincere at all. “I only have Rainy as my daughter. What other daughter do I have? That’s the granddaughter you adopted, but she’s not mine. If I wanted her to die, she would not have lived until now. As for Doctor Jian, he came originally for Rainy. He wasn’t someone I hired. If he wanted to leave or stay, it’s his choice; it’s not up to me.

“Also, Mom, I’m going to see my daughter. Please stay away from her. You know that, right?” He smiled miserably. “In the past, I thought that I was her greatest disaster, but now, her greatest trouble was you, her Granny.”

After he finished, he left in big steps. The wind blew the corner of his shirt up, and it looked as if it was filled with snow.

Song Wan was still standing on the same spot. She raised her hand and actually did not know what she just did.

...

“Okay, it’s fine now.” The doctor pinched Rainy’s pretty face. Wow, what a beautiful baby. She was really brave and did not even cry.

Rainy buried her head in her mother’s chest and rubbed her eyes from time to time. When did she not cry? She cried a lot, okay?

Chu Lui walked in, and his face still had the clear five-finger print. However, he did not take much notice of it; and the others took it as though they did not see it.

This print was not done by a woman, right? It turned out that he was right. This palm print was indeed done by a woman.

“Are you okay?” Chu Lui walked over and carried his daughter. He moved her hand to the right then left and left then right. Obviously, they were fine already.

“She’s fine, but she needs rest.” Xia Ruoxin stood up and carried her daughter away from his arms. No matter if it was male or female—as long as they were from the Chu family, they were dangerous; and she had to stay away from them. Her daughter had already lost a kidney so she did not want her daughter to lose something else.

Chu Lui’s embrace was empty, and that disappointed feeling spiraled in his whole body and could not leave.
