Chapter 533 - He Wanted a Daughter



Chapter 533 He Wanted a Daughter

“Manni, how was it? Was it true? Was that little girl really Chu Lui’s child?” Upon seeing Li Manni walk out of the house, Mrs. Li hastily approached her and asked anxiously. If it was true, then they really had no more hope. Their Li family was done for.

Li Manni simply took a glance at her mother, her lips slightly curving upwards. “Mom, did you really think that Chu Lui would accept me again? The Li family again? Everything that happened to us, it was all planned by him. Did you really think that Chu Lui was going to slap himself in the face?”

Her questions left Mrs. Li speechless. Chu Lui, that man, definitely wasn’t somebody who could easily forgive others. He always bore grudges.

“Mom, regardless of whether that child exists or not, he will never accept me again. Didn’t you already know that? There’s also no way that he’ll let us rise like a phoenix from the ashes. That house is the last thing that he has given us.” Li Manni was just like a wandering soul, aimlessly walking forward. Her heart was cold, very cold. Her mother was probably worried about how her daughter was going to continue living her life, or maybe she was only worried about her big brother and was still planning to use that house to let him get married.

“Manni, Manni...” Mrs. Li endlessly repeated Li Manni’s name. Her heart this time had really fallen into despair.

Xia Ruoxin placed her hands above her eyes and looked up to the bright, sunny sky. Her lips curved slightly into a smile. As if a spring breeze had blown across, her entire body felt soothingly warm. She took a look at the things in her hand: the new clothes that she bought for her daughter. The little fella was definitely going to be very happy when she got back.

She put down her hands and slightly squinted her eyes. Suddenly, she felt that that light in her vision was blocked by a mass of shadows.

“Ruoxin...” The man’s voice had obvious hoarseness to it. It seemed like he had to go through a lot just to call her name.

“Is there something wrong? Mr. Chu?” Xia Ruoxin backed away a few steps. It was only then that she was able to see the blue sky again. He was just like a massive shadow, blocking her path in life and only making her want to distance herself.

“Ruoxin, if I say that I’ve never gotten over you, will you believe me?” Chu Lui didn’t dare to approach her. He simply stood in his place, speaking the words that he had wanted to say since a long time ago. True enough-he had never gotten over her. Never. He didn’t need his dignity, and he didn’t need his pride, so please?

“Your old things are all still there; I’ve kept them well. I never thought of throwing them away. Even though I always thought that I hated you a lot, I never thought of throwing your things away.”

Xia Ruoxin gently gripped her own finger. “Throw them away. What’s the point of keeping them? You already threw away the person; shouldn’t you also throw away their things?”

Xia Ruoxin said in a light tone. Although she still couldn’t manage to appear aloof and indifferent, at least her expression was calm. However, only she knew that her heart right then was beating wildly. It’s been four years already; he really should’ve thrown them away. She didn’t want to go back to her days before. Right now, she was living well, so well that she didn’t want anything to change.

Furthermore, Gao Yi was really good to her. In this world, there was nobody that treated her as well as Gao Yi did. That’s why she really wasn’t willing to think about things of the past. She and Chu Lui had four wrong years together; let that all be in the past now.

He didn’t owe her anything, and neither did she owe him.

“If I say that I actually still love you, can we have a new start?” Chu Lui’s hoarse voice spoke. Within the darkness of his black pupils existed a look of seriousness. “Can we? Can we?”

“Please say that we can.”

Xia Ruoxin paused for a moment. Then, she shook her head and turned her face away, not wanting to let people see that daub of bitterness rolling down her eyes.

What’s the point of saying all these now? Love or not, those were already things of the past.

“If I say... let’s get married again, would you be willing to come back to our house with our daughter?” Chu Lui moved his lips slightly before taking out a red flannelette box. He opened it and placed it in front of Xia Ruoxin. Inside it was an extremely exquisitely made diamond ring. Perhaps not very rare, but it was just the type that Xia Ruoxin liked.

She wasn’t suited to wear those rings with really big and resplendent diamonds. Rings like this that were simple but elegant suited her more.

Xia Ruoxin turned her head around to look at the ring in Chu Lui’s hand. Then, she let out a smile. “Chu Lui, you can stop with your jokes. Are you not done acting out the show from four years ago? I’m not your enemy, and you also don’t have anything that you need from me.

“If it’s about Rainy, then, you don’t even have to think about it. She’s my daughter. I gave birth to her and raised her myself. Your Chu family has never raised her in the least. Her last name could be Xia-her last name could be Gao, but it will never be Chu.”

Xia Ruoxin walked past Chu Lui. With this same tone-four years ago, he had said this: he could love Xia Yixuan, and he could love Li Manni... he could love any woman in this world, but the only person he could never love was Xia Ruoxin.

Today, she returned his words to him. Whether he loved her or not, that was his business.

She was no longer that Xia Ruoxin who loved him with all her heart.

Chu Lui’s hands slowly retracted, the box within his fingers seemingly starting to feel heavy. He clenched his fists and then turned around to look at Xia Ruoxin who was a few steps away.

“But I had really fallen in love with you. Am I so untrustworthy to you?” said Chu Lui to her distancing figure. Within the hoarseness of his voice was a sense of agony. Was it so hard for her to believe him just this once?

As long as she gave him one more chance. Yes, she wasn’t the Xia Ruoxin that she used to be, but he also wasn’t the Chu Lui that he used to be.

Xia Ruoxin’s footsteps came to a stop. Sometimes, it wasn’t that they weren’t given a chance. It was more like they were already given a chance, but they ruined it for themselves. Yet now, he wanted another chance? How could that be possible?

“I already have Gao Yi.” Recalling what that man had done for her and Rainy, she practically had no way to reject him. Neither was it possible for her to ever hurt a man that loved her so much. Right now, she and Rainy were very happy and content; they didn’t need another Chu Lui in their life.

Oh, so it was all because of him. Chu Lui’s eyes darkened a bit, his hand that was holding the box suddenly clenching tightly. The moment he lifted his head again, he had become that emotionless Chu Lui again. He sneered as he spoke. “Xia Ruoxin, I can live without you; but I cannot live without Rainy. She’s my daughter. There’s no way I’ll let her call another man her father.”
