Chapter 573 She had Forgotten Something
“As long you’re alright. As long as you’re alright.” Tears pricked in his eyes. He closed his eyes, suddenly having an urge to cry. However, in the end, he only laughed.
“Rainy, you’re really brave, do you know that? You’re Daddy’s pride.” His fingers carefully caressed Rainy’s dainty nose and then his. His mother said that Rainy looked a lot like her mother and only her eyes resembled his. However, he somehow realized that-actually-his daughter’s nose looked exactly like his. Of course, that character of hers resembled his even more.
“Wake up sooner, you got it? Don’t make all of us sad. You’re a good kid, remember?” He reached out his hand to grip his daughter’s tiny hand. “Remember, don’t anyhow run around next time. Otherwise, Daddy will lock you up and hit your butt.
“You were so naughty. You really scared Daddy to death.”
Although his words came out like this, his hands gripping his daughter’s hands were extremely gentle, simply afraid that he would hurt her.
Suddenly, he paused for a moment. He watched the small hand in disbelief. He seemingly felt the hand move just now. It couldn’t be his hallucination, right?
Then again, Rainy’s small hand was really moving. She scratched her own hand, and her eyelashes continuously fluttered.
“Rainy...” Chu Lui hastily placed down Rainy’s hand. His fingers gently caressed his daughter’s small face; was she about to wake up?
Rainy seemingly heard somebody call her name. However, she felt that her eyes hurt unbearably. She instinctively reached out her hand to rub her eyes, but her hands were pressed down by somebody, stopping her from rubbing her eyes.
Chu Lui gently gripped onto his daughter’s small hand, not wanting to let her touch her forehead. Her injury was not any simply injury. What if it hurt when she touched it?
Rainy uncomfortably groaned before opening her eyes. Her pupils looked around a few times.
Then, she felt a wave of pain travel from her head.
“Mommy, Rainy hurts.” She called out Xia Ruoxin’s name, finally making Chu Lui laugh. It was good that she could call for her mother. It was a good thing that she could feel pain. He heard the doctor mention before that because Rainy had injured her head, it was possible for her to experience some aftereffects. Right now, she seemed perfectly fine.
“Rainy...” He lowered his head and called out Rainy’s name. It was only at that moment that Rainy could see him clearly. She played with her fingers, her two eyes filled with curiosity.
“Uncle, who are you? Have you seen Rainy’s Mommy? Rainy’s Mommy is very beautiful. The most beautiful person is Rainy’s Mommy.” Her smile was naive, and her tone was innocent. However, the way she addressed him was foreign.
Chu Lui’s body jerked. This feeling... something wasn’t right. “Rainy, what did you just call me?” His voice trembled slightly. He realized that he was, in fact, feeling nervous right now. He was afraid and fearful.
“Uncle. Right, it should be Bo Bo[1].” Rainy smiled bashfully. Mommy said before that people with long beards were called Bo Bo. Although she did still feel like this man was more suitable to be an uncle.
“Rainy, you don’t know me anymore?” He stared into his daughter’s unfamiliar gaze, asking word by word. He was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to understand what he was saying, afraid that she wouldn’t be able to understand what he meant.
Rainy shook her head. “I don’t know you,” Rainy replied honestly because she had never been acquainted with him before in the first place.
After speaking, she played with her hands again. However, her dark eyes kept sizing up the weird uncle in front of her.
“You don’t know me? You don’t know me?” Chu Lui repeated her words. He closed his eyes in agony. This child wouldn’t lie; therefore, it meant that she didn’t remember him. Did she really not remember him? He stood up, and the corners of lips bitterly fell downwards. It’s fine if you don’t recognize me. As long as you can continue living healthily, it doesn’t matter that you can’t remember me.
He walked out of the room. So this was the aftereffect the doctor was referring to. She had forgotten about him. She had forgotten about this father. He walked to the door and lovingly smiled at Rainy. Rainy, my daughter. You have to be happy, alright? You have to remember that Daddy loves you, really loves you.
The moment the door closed, Rainy strangely touched her own head.
“Ouch, Mommy...” She suddenly started crying, and her head hurt unbearably
The door was pushed open forcefully, and the person who entered was Xia Ruoxin.
“Mommy...” Rainy sat up and reached out her hands. Both of her eyes were red from crying again. “Mommy, carry...” She flattened her mouth, upset. She didn’t understand why her head hurt so much.
Xia Ruoxin thought that she had heard wrongly. She had run over after hearing her daughter’s cries, but she didn’t expect to see that her daughter had really woken up.
“Rainy.” Xia Ruoxin hastily walked over and scooped her daughter’s small body into her embrace. Her actions were very gentle and careful, simply afraid of hurting the wound on her daughter’s head. Rainy’s two small hands gripped tightly onto Xia Ruoxin’s clothes. She lifted her face feeling miserable.
“Mommy, Rainy’s head hurts.” She wanted to use her small hands to touch her head as she spoke; however, her hands were hastily pulled away by Xia Ruoxin. “It’ll only hurt for a while. It’ll stop hurting soon.” She carried her daughter. This was a sense of euphoria from recovering something she thought she had lost. Just like last time, her daughter didn’t leave her. She was calling her Mommy, and she was able to feel pain. Xia Ruoxin was so emotional that she clearly didn’t know what to do anymore.
“She’s awake?” Gao Yi walked over as well. He carried Rainy over from Xia Ruoxin’s embrace then carefully placed his hand on her forehead, checking to see if her temperature was normal.
However, Rainy tilted her head strangely, her long eyelashes blinking once.
“Uncle...” The voice of a child was extremely tender. However, the words ‘uncle’ evidently stunned Gao Yi and Xia Ruoxin.
What did she just call him? Uncle and not Daddy?
“Rainy’s so well-behaved.” He placed his hands on the child’s face, his expression slightly darkening. “Rainy, can you tell Uncle how old you are right now?”
Rainy obediently reached out three fingers.
“Mommy said that Rainy is three-years-old.”
“Yes, three-years-old, very clever.” He complimented this squeamish child with zest. Then, he lay her down carefully and covered the blanket over her small body again. “Rainy’s sick now. That’s why you need to listen to what Uncle says and rest well, okay?”
Rainy pulled the blanket over herself tightly then firmly nodded her head.
[1] Bo Bo refers to an older uncle.
