“Mommy, don’t cry. Let me blow your pain away…” Rainy propped both hands on Xia Ruoxin’s shoulders and blew in her eyes. Whenever she was in pain, her mother would blow at her wounds like this. Right now, her mother’s eyes hurt so that would be the place she had to blow. After she had blown on them, they would stop hurting.
Xia Ruoxin caressed her daughter’s face tenderly. She sniffed and smiled at the girl. “Baby, you are wrong. Mommy is not in pain. It’s the sand that got into my eyes. When you blew earlier, the sand came out. I’m alright now. Let’s go home, okay? If the nursing aunties don’t see you, they will be sad.” She coaxed her daughter, afraid the little girl would cry with her. She got onto her feet with some difficulty and carried Rainy who was on the ground.
Rainy nodded her head lightly, but her hands were covering her cheeks.
“What’s wrong?” Xia Ruoxin was puzzled by her action. Why was she covering her face? Was she having a toothache?
“Mommy, I want to wrap my face up. Those aunties will knead my face.” Rainy told her in a grievance. Her cheeks were in so much pain from all the pinches. If it’s not this one, it’s the next one. At times, someone would plant a sloppy kiss on her face. It was unbearable.
However, her mother had taught her to be courteous. That’s why she would let them kiss, pinch, or rub as they wished.
“That is because they like you.” Xia Ruoxin laughed lightly. She was consoled by the fact that everyone at the hospital treated Rainy extremely well. There were times when she would arrive late and find someone accompanying her daughter. Otherwise, she would be in constant worry for her child.
“Really?” Rainy put her hands down and stared with her wide, curious eyes. They pinched because they liked her. That was so weird.
“Of course.” She patted her daughter’s face. “Have you seen any of them pinching Xiao Hua or kissing her?” Xia Ruoxin was talking about Xiao Hua, a child who was about Rainy’s age at the hospital. However, she has been discharged. Xiao Hua looked like any ordinary child. The nurses were not very sweet on her. Her daughter, on the other hand, had been blessed because of her good looks. Had she gained an advantage because of her good looks?
“No.” Rainy nodded her head honestly. Indeed, she had not seen them doing it.
So being pinched meant she was well-liked. She hugged Xia Ruoxin’s neck as her eyes wandered over to that table and stared at the two-tiered cake. It was barely touched. Her mother had told her not to waste food which was the reason why she had finished her cake. Why didn’t the uncle and his friend treasure it? It was such a delicious cake.
She buried her head into Xia Ruoxin’s arms, not thinking about that huge cake anymore.
They exited the restaurant. Xia Ruoxin wrapped her little girl’s body tightly with her own coat. “We will be going back in a little while.” She kissed her daughter’s face. Rainy blinked her long eyelashes, and then she closed her eyes. Her stamina was exceptionally bad. By now, she was so tired she could barely speak another word, but her tiny hand kept clutching her mother’s clothes.
A black car drove past their side. Xia Ruoxin turned around and allowed the wind, brought on by the car, to blow on her back. When she turned back, she could vaguely see the silhouettes of a man and a woman in a deep embrace.
The car drove for a while and came to an abrupt stop. The two passengers in the car were locked in a passionate kiss. One had wanted to compensate while the other was afraid to leave. The two persons were tangled with each other’s body with urgency until they were shed off their clothing. Right there in the car, both of them ignited a fire of lust that seemed to burn around them.
“Lui…” Li Manni’s fingers dug into the flesh on Chu Lui’s shoulders. She bore his passion and her lips curled into a triumphant smile. She had succeeded.
