“That Daddy is sick . He's going to go get a flu shot and eat his medication . ” Xia Ruoxin squatted down . She reached out her hand and placed it on her daughter's hair . What cute curls—these were given to her by that man .

“Does Rainy like it?” This?” Her hands remained on Rainy's head, fiddling with her small curls .

“I like it . Rainy really likes it . ” Rainy touched her own hair as well and then firmly nodded her head . After that, she shook Xia Ruoxin's hand . “Mommy, let's go home . ” She rubbed her eyes . It seemed like she was a little tired .

“Alright, Mommy's bringing you home . ” Xia Ruoxin stood up and carried her daughter . Rainy leaned against Xia Ruoxin's shoulder and bit on her thumb .

“Mommy, that daddy, will he be afraid if he's left alone when he's sick? Rainy will . ”

“He has his parents with him as well . He won't be scared . ” Xia Ruoxin gently placed her hand on her daughter's small back, replying to her daughter's innocent, guileless questions in the same way . At times, her replies contained the most truthful words .

Who wouldn't be afraid in the hospital? However, that man-she was certain that he wouldn't be scared . She didn't even know whether the word 'fear' existed in that man's dictionary .

Her eyes looked forward . For some unknown reason, when she saw Chu Lui dragging his injured leg as he walked towards his car, her heart felt an inexplicable sense of sadness . She didn't know if it was because of him or because of herself .

She carried her daughter all the way home, and just as she was about to pull open the door, somebody opened it from the inside . Gao Yi's figure appeared in front of her, blocking all the light before her eyes .

“She's asleep . ” Gao Yi simply carried Rainy into his embrace and walked back into the house . There were several new curls on Rainy's hair, but he wasn't surprised in any way .

“Gao Yi, sorry . You must be hungry . I'll go make some food for you . ” Xia Ruoxin looked at the time, only realizing then that she had lost track of time . He must have waited for a long time already .

“No rush, I'm not hungry” Gao Yi shook his head . He placed Rainy onto her bed first and pulled the covers over her body .

“Ruoxin…” He turned around and called out Xia Ruoxin's name, only to find out that Xia Ruoxin had already headed into the kitchen . His fingers gently touched the curls on Rainy's hair as he let out a faint sigh .

Ruoxin, what I want is a woman who loves me, not a woman who makes food for me . Do you understand?

He stood up and headed out of the room . Rainy flipped over her body, habitually reaching out her hands to feel around the bed . Her hands eventually touched something soft, and she took that object into her embrace before sleeping soundly . The object in her arms was her doll .

Gao Yi walked to the kitchen door and leaned against it . He attentively watched over Xia Ruoxin who bustled about the kitchen the entire time . “I saw the both of you . ” His voice was extremely calm . However, it made Xia Ruoxin's hand tremble, and at that moment where she hadn't held the knife properly, she ended up cutting her hand .

Gao Yi quickly approached her . He took her finger over and placed it between his lips .

“Gao Yi . I'm sorry . It's not what you think it is . ” Xia Ruoxin frantically shook her head . She could feel the warmth of Gao Yi's lips clearly through her finger . It was just that in the spur of the moment, her heart had already frozen up . It was clearly a heartwarming action and a loving moment, and yet she only felt somewhat embarra.s.sed .

“I didn't think much about it . ” He let go of Xia Ruoxin's finger and dragged her out of the kitchen . Then, he took out a first-aid kit from on top of the shelf and carefully treated the wound on Xia Ruoxin's hand .

“What are you so nervous about, Ruoxin?” Gao Yi's hands gently caressed Xia Ruoxin's face . The warmth within his fingers made it very hard for him to put his hands down . Perhaps, he loved and cared for this woman a lot more than he imagined .

But what about her? Did she really love him?

He didn't want to let her go . Neither could he bare to do so . Today, when he saw her walking with that man, he finally understood that there was a feeling called 'jealousy' . It was also the first time that he realized that this kind of emotion… it was really detestable .

Xia Ruoxin reached out her hand and placed it over his hand . Her eyes were filled with his tender expression . When suddenly, an immense sense of guilt washed over her . Recently, she had been troubled by another man, and similarly, he must have been troubled by her .

“Gao Yi, there's really nothing between us . It was just that Du Jingtang ruined Rainy's hair today, and she wouldn't stop crying . So in the end, he gave me a call; and it was only after I headed over that I realized he had called Chu Lui over as well .

“In the end, Chu Lui found a person—the person who curled Rainy's hair . Believe me, Gao Yi . Nothing's ever going to happen between us again . Even if there were no more grudges or hatred between us, it would still be impossible for us to get back together . ”

Four years ago, they weren't together . Four years later, it was still going to stay the same . Many things—after pa.s.sing-remained in the past .

Gao Yi's lips slightly curved upwards . He reached out his hands and pulled Xia Ruoxin into an embrace, resting his head on top of hers . “Ruoxin, let's get married . Let's give Rainy a family, alright? She should need a family by now . ”

He gently sighed . Although his voice still sounded composed, it was not hard to notice the antic.i.p.ation in his voice . He wanted to do something for himself; he didn't want to lose . It wasn't because of any other reason; he just really loved this woman . He fell in love with this clearly fragile yet extremely determined woman since the first time they met .

rea

Right now, he really didn't want to let her go anymore .

Xia Ruoxin leaned her head against his chest, her eyes slightly getting clouded .

“Okay . ” She could hear her own voice sounding a little weak . However, she still agreed . Rainy needed a father, and she also needed a family . Gao Yi— this person-he was

it .

Perhaps, they were already married from the start . Didn't she already make this promise with him?

However, why was it that when she said 'okay', she actually felt an urge to cry . Whether this was happiness or sadness—she already didn't care to find out . So be it, she wanted a family and a stable life . This sort of lifestyle, she knew that this man was definitely able to give it to her .

Marrying him would be a woman's happiness because he treated her well-really well . So well that she didn't want to and wasn't willing to reject him .

“Let's go back to England . My family's there; I believe that you'll like them . Let's leave this place . ” Gao Yi hugged her a little more tightly in his arms . She had clearly agreed, but why did he still feel this deep sense of sorrow in his heart?

“Okay . ” Xia Ruoxin nodded her head again .
