While Li Manni watched the child approached them closer and closer, her hands and feet began to turn cold. This face. How could it resemble that woman that much? The girl’s features might be small, but one could see the resemblance with Xia Ruoxin. Had she seen wrong? No, she would never make this kind of mistake. She could recognize that woman even if she was burned into ashes.

Then this child... she dared not venture further into her thoughts.

The nurse led Rainy right in front of Chu Lui. When he laid his eyes on Rainy, he was shocked, too. The child looked like Yixuan when she was young. Twenty years might have passed, and he couldn’t remember much about Yixuan’s looks when she was a little girl. However, he could remember this pair of big eyes in his mind. He had never forgotten about them.

“What is your name?”

He got on his feet. To everyone’s surprise, he squatted down, wanting to be closer to the child. She was beautiful and so small that he could crush her with one hand.

Rainy stood silently and pursed her lips into a line, not saying a word.

“Rainy, come. Greet Uncle and Auntie.” The nurse, slightly nervous, squeezed her hand once. The child has always been polite with a honey mouth. Why was she being so quiet today? What had happened?

“Your name is Rainy? That’s a very nice name.” Chu Lui reached out, wanting to touch the child’s little face. However, Rainy retreated back a step and avoided his hand.

Chu Lui’s hand was left hanging in mid-air. After a long time, it clenched into a fist before dropping by his side. He seemed to sense that the girl did not like him. Why was that? This was only their first meeting. Was his face not likable for children?

“I’m sorry. She might have been shy towards strangers,” the nurse explained carefully while Rainy hugged the doll in her arms. She had one hand in the nurse’s as she stood in silence.

“That’s alright. I understand.” Chu Lui stood up and sat in his seat again. His hand went to his face, and he wondered if his face was really that scary. Was it enough to scare a child?

“Rainy, let’s go back to your ward. Come, say goodbye to Uncle and Auntie.” The nurse pulled Rainy’s hand and started to leave. If they don’t, she wondered if the great Mr. Chu would be upset. That Mrs. Chu, too, was staring at Rainy as though she wanted to swallow the girl whole.

Rainy bit down on her lip, loosened her hand from the nurse’s, and made a deep bow to Chu Lui and Li Manni.

“Thank you, Uncle.” Her soft voice sounded tired. It really made one’s heart ached for her.

“Come, it’s time for your injection.” The nurse held her hand tightly. At last, she sighed in relief. Fortunately, the child was still sensible.

“Okay.” Rainy nodded her head lightly and pulled the nurse’s hand to leave. Her tiny feet walked slowly towards the door. Once there, she looked back at Chu Lui again as her curly eyelashes fluttered. Then, her little pink dress went out the door, out of sight.
