“Oh yes, I know of a good restaurant. The decor is simple, but the food is delicious. Shall we go there?” Li Manni suddenly thought of it and suggested to Chu Lui.

“Mmm, you decide.” It sounded patronizing, but only he knew.

Li Manni walked into the shop with her arm around Chu Lui’s. It was like she had said, the restaurant was not classy. However, it was surprisingly crowded.

They picked a seat by the window which was considered quiet.

Li Manni placed her orders and went back to Chu Lui. All the while, he was staring ahead with focus and at a loss at the same time.

She followed the direction of his gaze, and her eyes fell on a familiar silhouette. She paled. It was the back of Xia Ruoxin. She shook her head, wondering about the possibility. She should have left the city, not stayed here. If Li Manni was her, she should have left long ago.

That woman was carrying a tray though her posture looked weird. Others used their left hand while she used her right. Her left hand was by her side, seemingly lifeless.

“Lui, that woman is weird. Why was she only using one of her hands?” Li Manni asked curiously. Before she could finish, a gust of cold air blew past her face as Chu Lui’s huge frame strode towards that woman.

Li Manni hurriedly stood up. Her chest began to tighten, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Xia Ruoxin placed the tray on the table carefully. As she was using one hand, it was difficult for her. However, she had mastered it. She brought the wine out and placed the customer’s orders down.

“Please enjoy.” A very polite tone with a plain smile. She might not look well, but her smile made up for everything.

People would not be put off by a woman who smiles.

She was about to leave when she realized someone had grabbed her left hand forcefully. The pain caused her to frown.

As she turned around, she met Chu Lui’s abusive gaze.

The world was such a small place. She thought she would never see them again. A numbing pain had started in her heart upon seeing them; she could taste the bitterness in her mouth.

Li Manni came over and pulled Chu Lui’s other arm possessively. The force exerted darkened his gaze, and he released Xia Ruoxin’s hand.

Xia Ruoxin merely gave him a look. She wouldn’t do this; she wouldn’t fight with her over Chu Lui. She no longer wanted him; all she wanted was her child.

“What are you doing here?” His voice was aloof with a hint of unexplainable anger. Xia Ruoxin toughened herself before replying coldly, “Why can’t I be here?”

If it was possible at all, it was best that they wouldn’t meet. She found that she could also live her life well alone.

Chu Lui sneered. “I can’t believe you are alive. I thought you were dead.” Another string of cruel words came from his mouth as soon as he spoke. Xia Ruoxin’s smiled faintly; a look of crushing pain flashed in her eyes.
