Chapter 569 She Already Had a Father

Perhaps, his appearance still remained the same. He had the same perfectly handsome face and that same identity—the almighty CEO of the Chu Enterprise. He was somebody who could be called a workaholic, a genius businessman. Yet, there was no life in his eyes. Right now, all that he had was a road of desolation in front of him. Just like an old man, he lived like that every day: waiting for life, waiting for death.

He picked up his crutches. His leg had yet to fully recover, and every step for him was extremely strenuous.

Although he hadn’t hurt the bone in his leg, his muscles and ligaments had sustained injuries. Without at least a few months, there was no way it was going to heal. He lowered his head to look at the crutches in his hand. Ruoxin, could this leg of mine be considered my compensation for your hand?

Even if it was going to stay this way forever, he didn’t mind.

Du Jingtang walked into the room and placed a stack of documents onto Chu Lui’s office table. He glanced at the watch on his wrist.

“Are you going to see the Little Cutie? She should be out of school by now.”

“Yes.” Chu Lui nodded his head, then picked up his crutches, and exited the room. He dragged his injured leg with him, walking slowly.

Du Jingtang looked pensively at Chu Lui’s back. Right now, he truly felt that he was more fortunate than Chu Lui. At the very least, he could openly meet the little cutie and hug her. Whereas, his cousin—who was her fathercould only secretly watch her from the side. Furthermore, it was only when school was over that he could go see her.

He truly was a pitiful father.

Clearly, he loved the little cutie a lot. After letting out a sigh, Du Jingtang arranged all the documents that he had placed on Chu Lui’s desk neatly, only leaving after he finished. It was already afternoon. He was going to head out for lunch as well. Otherwise, he was going to starve to death.

Chu Lui sat in his car, motionlessly watching the entrance of the nursery school. Rainy’s little hand was led by the teacher as she tiptoed on her legs from time to time. As time passed, children were picked up by their parents one after another while his daughter remained standing there obediently.

Rainy looked in his direction, seemingly already remembering his car.

“Teacher, Rainy wants to go out.” She lifted her small face and tugged at the teacher’s hand as she spoke.

“Your Daddy and Mommy are not here yet. What does Rainy want to go out for?” The teacher strangely asked Rainy. She touched the tiny curls on Rainy’s head so fond of it that she could hardly take her hands off. This hairstyle, it sure was adorable.

Chu Lui’s pupils darkened as a look of immense disdain manifested on his face. He didn’t like other people touching his daughter, and evidently, it was the same for Rainy. She gently avoided the teacher’s hand and placed her hand onto her head as if she was protecting herself. She really treasured these curls on her hair.

Fine. The teacher retracted her hand feeling slightly awkward and let go of Rainy’s small hand. Rainy walked out of the school. Because it was at the entrance of the nursery, it could be considered a safe place. No vehicles passed by there. If not, the teacher really would not dare to let her walk out on her own.

Rainy plodded towards the car with her tiny fat legs, looking just like a tumbler. Her tiny legs seemed as if they were unable to support her small body.

She walked in front of Chu Lui’s car and then touched its black exterior before moving back to the front of the car. She tilted her head and counted the numbers on the car plate. Actually, there were many numbers that she didn’t recognize; however, she had already remembered what they looked like. Therefore, she could confirm that this was definitely that other Daddy’s car.

She tiptoed on her tiny legs, desperately trying to see the person in the car clearly. However, she was really too small; and she couldn’t see anything

The car door opened, and Chu Lui hastily got off. He squatted down in front Rainy and reached out his hands to caress his daughter’s tender face. Suddenly, he felt his heart ache.

“Rainy,” he called out his daughter’s name. Rainy looked at Chu Lui with her pair of discerning eyes. Then, she reached out her small hands and placed them on Chu Lui’s face.

Chu Lui choked up slightly. This was the first time—the first time his daughter took the initiative to approach him. It was really the first time. He had never known what tears felt like. But because of his daughter’s trivial action, it made even a big man like him feel so touched that he was about to cry.

He picked up Rainy and squeezed her small body tightly in his embrace. “Rainy, did you recognize Daddy’s car?” He could barely take his hands off Rainy’s small face as he spoke.

Rainy lightly nodded her head, answering his question.

“You’re really very smart. Do you know that? You’re a lot like Daddy because Daddy’s smart too.” He wasn’t narcissistic; it was a fact that he had always possessed a high IQ. Besides, he heard from his parents that Rainy had a really good memory. This side of her resembled him -resembled the Chu family.

Sometimes, even her temper had an uncanny resemblance to his. Although her appearance took after Xia Ruoxin, her intelligence and stubbornness were just like her father.

Rainy didn’t quite understand. She rubbed her face against Chu Lui’s chest-it felt different from Daddy’s. However, she seemingly liked the smell on this Daddy more. Although he was very bad to Rainy last time; right now, he was rather nice.

She wasn’t angry with him anymore,

“Rainy, can you call me ‘Daddy’?” Chu Lui’s hands gently caressed his daughter’s face as he carefully asked. She had never called him ‘Daddy’ before-not even once. Because right now, her Daddy wasn’t him; it was Gao Yi. Besides, he knew that he had no right to be her father. Although, he really did want to hear her call him Daddy at least once.

He only had this one and only daughter. If she didn’t call him ‘Daddy’, then there might not be any other person to call him ‘Daddy’ for the rest of his life. He had already lost his right to be a father a long time ago.

“Can you, Rainy?” He tried his best to sound gentle. The cold and tough Chu Lui had never been so careful before. Neither had he ever pleaded with somebody like this before.

Rainy’s lips remained tightly shut. She still couldn’t bring herself to say the word ‘Daddy’.

“Rainy already has a Daddy,” she softly said. She already had a Mommy and a Daddy. Her friends only had one Mommy and one Daddy, and it was the same for her.

Chu Lui felt like his heart had been ruthlessly stabbed. That stinging pain made the corner of his lips fall bitterly.

“Alright, Daddy isn’t forcing you. If you don’t want to call me ‘Daddy’, then you don’t have to.” He leaned against his car, carefully carrying the child in his arms. Perhaps, he would really never get to hear his daughter call him ‘Daddy’ in this lifetime.

“Mommy…” Rainy suddenly started to struggle. She had already spotted Xia Ruoxin walking towards the nursery from a distance. Chu Lui was afraid of hurting her so he hastily placed her down. However, before he could stop her, Rainy’s tiny legs had already run forward.

“Rainy, don’t run, don’t run.” Chu Lui was shocked. Without his crutches, he walked with extreme difficulty. An unbearable pain radiated from his thigh with every step that he took. However, he clenched down on his teeth and continued his journey forward.
