Chapter 370: It’s Possible

Even if Chu Lui realized that he didn’t love her anymore, she would always be the young lady of the Chu family—Chu Lui’s wife. Wasn’t that great? However, she was also clearly aware of the possibility that the child was that man’s.

She hugged herself tightly when he popped into her mind, feeling a piercing cold wind spread out from below her feet.

She lifted her hand and picked up a strand of hair on her shoulders, her gentle face now cold.

Perhaps the rain wouldn’t stop tomorrow… it got even heavier.

Gao Yi stopped the car and put his hand on Xia Ruoxin’s shoulders. “It’s fine. You stay in the car, and I’ll go get Rainy.” He closed the car door without any room for discussion and then held the umbrella over his head. It was just a short road, and he could already see the little girl waiting at the door.

He put down the umbrella and lifted Rainy from the teacher’s arms. He nodded at the teacher. For some reason, the teacher just hung her head low, without meeting his eyes or saying a word. Gao Yi lifted an eyebrow. This child was obedient, but did something happen regarding her today?

“Did she misbehave today?” Gao Yi asked the teacher. He was holding the umbrella over Rainy’s head with one hand, afraid that the rain would fall on her.

“Oh, no, no. She’s very obedient today.” The teacher shook her hands hurriedly, feeling extremely guilty. Yes, the child was obedient, but she was bullied.

“Daddy, I want to go home.” Rainy reached her hands out and wrapped it around Gao Yi’s neck. Her soft baby voice sounded slightly nasally. It was also the only words she spoke since the afternoon. Her hand hurt, and all she wanted to do was to see her mother and her father… and to go home.

“Okay, Daddy’s bringing you home.” Gao Yi lifted Rainy in his arms and walked towards the car he had stopped by the side of the road. The teacher wiped her palms profusely. The weather was so cold, but she was breaking out in cold sweat.

Children were the apple of their parent’s eyes. If they knew that their child was being bullied, it would be one hell of a mess. Especially for this man, who looked like he was no ordinary man. If he knew that his daughter was bullied today, he would definitely tear their school down.

Thank God, he didn’t know. Thank God, Rainy didn’t say anything.

Gao Yi carried Rainy into the car. Her eyes turned red when she saw Xia Ruoxin.

“Mommy…” She held her arms open and let Xia Ruoxin take her into her arms.

She clenched her small hands in Xia Ruoxin’s arms, her eyelashes fluttering.

“What’s wrong?” Xia Ruoxin stroked gently at her daughter’s hair, which had just grown out. It was extremely soft… but somewhat sparse and not as thick as before.

Rainy lifted her face and shook her head. “Rainy just miss Mommy,” she whispered. She released her hand, but her eyes were still red.

“Heh, little girl. Don’t you miss Daddy?” Gao Yi freed a hand and pinched Rainy’s cheeks, feeling slightly jealous.

“Rainy miss Daddy, too.” Rainy sat on Xia Ruoxin’s lap, swinging her legs. She missed Daddy and Mommy a lot.

Daddy didn’t dote on you for nothing, eh. Gao Yi thought, but his eyes were focused sharply on Rainy’s red palm, his expression serious. He averted his eyes and focused on driving.

Rainy lied in Xia Ruoxin’s arms, her tiny fingers clutching to her mother’s clothes like the past.

They reached home. Gao Yi lifted Rainy from Xia Ruoxin and let her change her clothes. When Xia Ruoxin entered the room, he held Rainy in his arms.

He pulled her hand to him and took a look. Indeed, there were abrasions on her delicate white palms. It was a shocking sight. Her hands were small, and her skin was tender. Just a little wound was scary enough, much less say this. Her hands were almost swollen.

“How did you get hurt?”

Gao Yi tried his best to make his tone light to prevent scaring the child.

Rainy’s hand twitched. “I accidentally fell down.” Her eyes were as red as a rabbit’s, making Gao Yi’s heart ache for her; but there was nothing he could do. “Okay. Be careful next time.”

“Here, I’ll apply some medicine.” Perhaps things weren’t what the child said, but he didn’t want to pry further anymore. He’d let Rainy do whatever she wanted. He wouldn’t force Xia Ruoxin, and thus, he wouldn’t make Ruoxin cry again. See, her eyes were so red. It would be a wonder if she didn’t burst out crying if he pursued the matter further.

“Okay.” Rainy nodded. Gao Yi let her down on the sofa and took out some bandages and ointment. Even a small wound needed to be treated seriously.

Rainy wanted to retract her hands at times because it really hurt. She bit her tiny lip and waited for Gao Yi to finish applying the ointment and wrap her hands up.

“Done. Rainy is such a brave girl.” Gao Yi rubbed her head. Perhaps it was because of the illness she had, but she was more mature and resilient than most kids her age.

Rainy smiled at last and stretched her bandaged hand. It still hurt slightly, but it was much better now.

Gao Yi poked her forehead. “Remember not to play in the water; if not, Daddy’s going to give you a spanking.”

Rainy hurriedly covered her buttocks with her tiny hands at the mention of spanking. She didn’t want to be spanked. It was painful.

Xia Ruoxin walked out, and Rainy jumped down from the sofa quickly and hugged Xia Ruoxin’s legs. “Mommy, Daddy is going to spank Rainy.” She tried to tell on Gao Yi while making a face at him, making Gao Yi smile helplessly.

“Why is Daddy going to hit you?” Xia Ruoxin lifted her daughter off the ground and saw Rainy’s bandaged hand. Her eyebrows furrowed. What happened to her hand?

“Don’t worry, it’s fine. She just fell down. I’ve applied some medication. She can’t play in the water in the next few days. If she does, we’ll have to spank her.” Gao Yi stood up and went to change to a new set of clothes, too. His clothes were damp, and they felt uncomfortable.

Xia Ruoxin did not suspect anything and was set at ease. She took Rainy’s hand and inspected it but couldn’t tell how serious the injury was through the bandage.

However, looking at Gao Yi, she could tell that it wasn’t that serious. He was a doctor, and he knew his job well.
