Chapter 685: Insect Repellent

“Insect repellent.” Chu Lui spat out every word with much difficulty.

Xia Ruoxin could not take it anymore. She opened the door and all the windows. Now, she was starting to question the man’s IQ. How could he spray so much insect repellent? Was he trying to kill himself like a mosquito?

Even if Chu Lui wanted to die, she did not want him to. She still needed to provide for her daughter.

Finally, the air in the room became a bit fresher. Xia Ruoxin then walked over and stood beside Chu Lui.

“CEO, may I know if there are any problems with the proposal?”

“Oh...” Chu Lui flipped the proposal on the table. He had already changed into a new set of clothes, but his hair was still wet. The dripping water droplets landed on his shirt, drop by drop.

Xia Ruoxin started to daydream a little. Actually, she just wanted to find out the similarities between Chu Lui and Rainy. It seemed as if Rainy had the same ears as Chu Lui; their earlobes looked like pearls.

“What are you looking at?” Chu Lui sharply found Xia Ruoxin in a daze and asked that question casually. Actually, he was not hoping that she would answer properly since that woman was filled with thorns towards him.

No, all her thorns had been removed, and she was just a big thorn.

“Oh.” Xia Ruoxin recovered her senses. “Your earlobe looks like my daughter’s.”

The pen in Chu Lui’s hand stopped in motion. Then, he nonchalantly flipped Xia Ruoxin’s document and signed his big name on it before writing two words down.

Afterward, he passed the proposal back to Xia Ruoxin.

“Okay, Ms. Xia. You may go back.”

Xia Ruoxin took over the signed proposal from his hands, but she was thinking to herself. What was the matter with him today? Why was he so easygoing?

When she flipped to the page that Chu Lui had signed and saw the two big words that Chu Lui had written, it made her happy and satisfied. With the proposal in her hand, she walked out as though she was on cloud nine.

Today was a good start, and everything would run smoothly from now on. As expected, it was really decent. Her work progressed as pretty smooth today as she had personally found a few teachers with characters that she had met before and were patient with children. All these children had been hurt before so one needed to treat them with extra care and patience.

A few days later, she would bring Rainy up. It was much easier for children to communicate between themselves as compared to between children and adults. Also, it was time to give her daughter a good lesson. Many things could not be learned in school or taught by her mother; she needed to find out, experience them, and understand them on her own. She believed her daughter could do it.

After packing her desk, she was about to knock off. She was not like the rest. She directly took the elevator from the seventeenth floor down to the basement one, picked up her bicycle, and cycled home.

A black car drove past in front of her. The sleek and humble design of the car with Chu Lui at the front definitely did not cost cheap.

Chu Lui came down the car and pointed at his car. “Let me send you home.”

Xia Ruoxin continued cycling on and past him. She did not even take any notice of him.

When she was going to fetch her daughter, that man was slightly earlier than her.

Rainy ran over happily.

“Let’s go. Mommy will bring you home.” She carried her daughter and placed her on the backseat of the bicycle. Rainy used her chubby hands to hold onto the rail and sat obediently.

Other people had private cars to fetch them from school, but Rainy could not care less. She loved to have her mother pick her from school so she could grab onto her mother’s clothes, talk to her, and chase after Uncle Wind.

Chu Lui resigned to his fate and followed behind the mother and daughter like their guardian angel.

When both of them returned home and were about to eat, that man was still outside in his car. The car was still there, and so was he.

When her mother was busy, Rainy took the chance and ran out. Shortly after, she dragged Chu Lui in.

“Mommy...” Rainy pulled Chu Lui’s finger. “Rainy did a good deed and brought the lost Uncle home. Mommy will bring Uncle back home with me later, okay?”

Xia Ruoxin came out from the kitchen and was still holding a ladle. Immediately, Chu Lui pulled Rainy back in case that woman raged and used the ladle to hit him.

Xia Ruoxin just went back to the kitchen with the ladle and continued cooking.

Outside, Chu Lui carried his daughter in his arms and secretly pinched his daughter’s small ears before pinching his own. He found out that it was really like what Xia Ruoxin had said; their earlobes were exactly the same.

He was delighted to discover that there was yet another similarity between him and his daughter.

Rainy came down from Chu Lui’s lap and went to the room to bring out a storybook. She lay down on her stomach and flipped the pages in all seriousness. Chu Lui walked over and squatted in front of his daughter. The book was colored. In the book, there were many small stories filled with colors. There were Chinese characters, spellings, and pictures which were perfect for children like Rainy who were just starting to learn.

When Xia Ruoxin came out, she found Chu Lui sitting on the floor with no regard to his status and was reading a book with Rainy. Not sure what Rainy had said, but it made the man laugh out loud.

In her memory, this man did not laugh very often. However, when he was dealing with children, he loved them with all his heart. Perhaps he was not a good husband or a good person, but one could not deny that he was a good father. However, he had missed his chances of being a good father. Now, he could only be a father who had repented.

Chu Lui had scored another dinner here again and left feeling delighted. On the second day, he came again to try his luck and gave Rainy a small gift.

“Mommy, is Rainy’s cat cute?”

Rainy carried a white cat which was the size of an adult’s palm.

This cat looked cute but did not seem like an ordinary cat.

Xia Ruoxin carried the cat from her daughter. She had not decided if she was going to adopt it as the cat had claws. What if the cat hurt Rainy?

“Don’t worry, this is a pure Garfield. It is very gentle and does not do anything but sleep.”

Xia Ruoxin lowered his head and placed the cat in her hand on her palm. Did this cat stop drinking milk already? Its nose was powdery and had a really big forehead. It seemed to have noticed Xia Ruoxin’s gaze, but it just lazily blinked and fell back asleep.

“Mommy, can we keep the cat?” Rainy looked at the cat in Xia Ruoxin’s hands innocently. She tried her best to tip-toe and pulled her mother’s clothes. She had a face filled with expectations, and her eyes were sparkling with delight. It was really hard for one to reject her.

Xia Ruoxin pulled the cat towards herself, but the cat was still asleep.
