Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 796: On Purpose

“I want to rest. CEO, please help yourself.” Xia Ruoxin stood up and her ‘CEO’ had no tinge of respect to it. If it were any other time, her ‘CEO’ would at most be distant; but now, there was mockery in her voice.

“Women spell trouble.” Chu Lui shook his head and sighed for the umpteenth time.

That was why one could not be under women. If not, they would only have one road to death; and now, he was only on the verge of dying. However, the weirdest thing was that he did not regret it at all. Even if he had to die in the hands of this woman, he would do so willingly.

Xia Ruoxin closed the door and leaned her back against it. She closed her eyes and exhaled lightly, pushing out the air inside her lungs and felt the air circulation cycle. She stood up and placed her head against the door. She could not lift her arm, and it was still hurting vaguely.

Chu Lui, what do you think? Where would we walk to? Where would our end be? Is it your death or mine?

She did not know who she was asking; was she asking herself or someone else? However, no one could give her the answer, not even herself.

...

Rainy pulled her mother’s hand and her hair that had grown to her shoulders was let down beautifully. Her mother was very good with hair and had tied a very beautiful braid for her with a pink butterfly as an accessory. The pretty child was at the limelight no matter where she went. Of course, ever since Rainy was young, she had always been the center of attention. She had inherited Chu Lui’s personality so she had a lot of guts and was a very prideful young lady.

When she pulled a stern face, her look really looked like her father’s.

“Mommy.” Rainy raised her head and pulled her mother’s fingers.

“What’s the matter?” Xia Ruoxin lowered her head and ruffled her daughter’s head.

“Rainy wants to go there to play.” She pointed at the slide not far away.

“Go on.” Xia Ruoxin held her daughter’s hand tightly and brought her to the slide. Today was the weekend so she had time to bring her daughter out to play. However, in her condition, she lifted her arm. She did not know when she could take off the cast. She was still a handicap.

Rainy let go of her mother’s hand and happily climbed onto the slide. She climbed up, sat down, and slid down.

“Granny, I want to play that one.” At this time, the sudden voice made Xia Ruoxin feel as if enemies were on narrow routes; she could even meet people that she knew here, and of course, they had also noticed her.

Naturally, Song Wan did not want to see Xia Ruoxin. The conflict between them started from Rainy’s kidney. As long as Chu Xiang lived on this earth, it could never wipe away the fact that Song Wan had dug up Rainy’s kidney for Chu Xiang.

Xia Ruoxin could forgive everything and treat them like it never happened except for this one thing. She could not.

“Granny, I want to play that one.”

Obviously, Chu Xiang had seen Rainy playing with that slide.

It was not that the child would be like the one who gave birth to them. One could only say that the child would be like whoever raised them.

“Go on.” Song Wan smiled happily at Chu Xiang.

Chu Xiang ran over excitedly. She was wearing a new pink dress, and it was very pretty and eye-catching. One look and people would know that it was a rich family’s child. Chu Xiang ran up the slide herself and started playing with it. Even though she was too old for it, she still liked it and wanted to play with it.

Once Rainy saw her, she did not want to play anymore and wanted to find her mother. However, Chu Xiang’s eyes flashed; and when Rainy was sliding down, she placed her butt down, too. Before Rainy could get up, Chu Xiang’s legs were already there.

It was too late by the time Xia Ruoxin noticed it.

Chu Xiang’s legs were already on Rainy’s small back. The strength when they slid down was already great; besides, Chu Xiang was two years older than Rainy and had much more strength. Just as Rainy was about to get up and wave towards her mother, Chu Xiang’s legs directly kicked her back and the girl down the slide.

Not long later, one could hear her cries.

Hurriedly, she ran over, carried her daughter, and noticed that her pair of hands was injured.

“Mommy, Rainy doesn’t hurt. Mommy, don’t cry.”

Rainy placed her pair of pitiful hands in front of Xia Ruoxin. “Mommy just needs to hoo-hoo, and it won’t hurt anymore.” Xia Ruoxin carried her daughter in a rush while Chu Xiang must have been sheepish as she had already run towards Song Wan.

Song Wan clearly knew what happened just now and saw Chu Xiang’s intentional doings, but she still hid Chu Xiang behind her. She stared at Xia Ruoxin lightly, and it was obvious that she was going to back Chu Xiang up until the end.

Xia Ruoxin stood up slowly, carried her daughter, and left. At that time, Rainy leaned her entire face on her mother’s shoulders. Her pair of eyes that looked so much like Chu Lui’s kept staring at Song Wan.

Song Wan raised her head and met with the pair of eyes that had no expression, the pair that looked so much like her son’s eyes. She instinctively turned away and looked at Chu Xiang.

“Granny, I didn’t do it on purpose.” Chu Xiang looked at her fingers and was afraid that her Granny would scold her.

“Mm, it’s okay.” Song Wan placed her hand on Chu Xiang’s hair. “Granny won’t blame you.”

“Then, will Daddy blame Xiang Xiang?” Chu Xiang asked again. Song Wan could not answer that question. She knew her son really well, and based on Chu Lui’s personality, Chu Xiang would definitely get a beating. Even if he could not do it, Chu Xiang would not be spared of his cold treatment.

“Don’t be afraid.” Song Wan had thought it through. “Granny is here, and no one would dare to touch our Xiang Xiang.” Song Wan was determined to protect Chu Xiang and not let anyone touch her a single bit.

At that time, Xia Ruoxin had no intention of pitting herself against Song Wan or hit Chu Xiang. She had to bring her daughter to see a doctor. Right now, all her energy and the suppressed hatred were growing, day by day. She started to hate. Yes, hate, just like how Song Wan hated her.

Right now, she was the same.

No one was made of clay. No one was made without a temper, and Rainy was her one turning point.

So what if she was Chu Lui’s mother? She sneered. Even Chu Lui did not want her; why should she care about her?

She brought Rainy to the hospital, and after the check, she was then relieved that there was not anything serious with Rainy. It was just that her hand was injured, and her two small hands were wrapped like a dumpling. Currently, she was asleep in her mother’s arms.

When Chu Lui rushed over, he saw this scene: his daughter’s hands wrapped in gauze while Xia Ruoxin was just holding her expressionless, with her one arm unable to move.
