Chapter 588 There Was Nothing She Couldn’t Get
Bai Zhenfeng’s words had evidently offended her.
“Do you earn very little?” Bai Zhenfeng paused for a moment before finally scoffing at her. The muscles on his old face were extremely tense, and there were little wrinkles at the corner of his eyes. Evidently, he rarely smiled.
“No.” Xia Ruoxin looked down slightly and replied in a dignified manner. “Gao Yi will be back soon. If you want me to leave, it’s very simple. One word from Gao Yi, and I’ll be on my way. Furthermore, I’ll leave without any conditions. I won’t stay here for another second.” She wasn’t using Gao Yi to avoid them. It was just because she could tell that Rainy was afraid, and she didn’t want her daughter to be any more frightened.
“I’ll see how long you can keep up this act for.” Bai Zhenfeng flung his hand. Upon hearing Gao Yi’s name, his face turned slightly blue. He understood Gao Yi’s personality very well. He took in a deep breath, controlling his urge to chase this woman out. He was afraid that Gao Yi would leave the house again for another few years. What would happen to Luoyin then?
How long was she going to have to wait again? Luoyin, this child, she was also another stubborn one. He could not care about Gao Yi, but he couldn’t do that to his own daughter. Furthermore, he didn’t put so much effort into raising Gao Yi for him to become somebody’s convenient accessory.
“Luoyin, let’s go.” Bai Zhenfeng simply said. Just as Bai Luoyin was about to leavesuddenly, a blood-curdling smile arose on her face. Rainy tightly hugged onto Xia Ruoxin’s neck, instinctively feeling scared.
“Mommy, that Aunty looks so ugly when she smiles. She looked just like the snake spirit in the calabash.” Rainy furrowed her eyebrows. However, her small voice was heard by Bai Luoyin.
She firmly gripped her hands. This damn bastard’s child, how dare she call her a snake spirit. Xia Ruoxin must have taught her that. She wasn’t going to forgive her, she definitely wasn’t.
“Rainy, you shouldn’t say that, understood?” Xia Ruoxin didn’t notice the look of hate in Bai Luoyin’s eyes. She simply caressed Rainy’s small face, correcting her in disapproval.
“But she really does look like that.” Rainy frustratedly bit her tiny fists. She didn’t say anything wrong. She clearly looked like the snake spirit; why did Mommy say that it was wrong of her to say so?
Xia Ruoxin couldn’t help but rub her forehead. This daughter of hers... sometimes, she was so shrewd that it made her a little helpless. She had to reply to this, then reply to that. Furthermore, her daughter’s questions were never-ending; therefore, she decided to stop it there. She seemingly had to buy the book ‘One Hundred Thousand Whys’ to enhance her knowledge. Otherwise, one day, she would not be able to reply to her daughter’s questions.
“Alright, go play with your doll.” She placed her daughter down, and it was only then that Rainy ran next to the sofa. She picked up her doll and hugged it in her arms. It was just that after playing with it for a few minutes, the door forcefully opened. The doll in Rainy’s arms fell onto the floor, and she instantly ran into Xia Ruoxin’s arms.
“Alright, don’t be scared, Mommy’s here.” Xia Ruoxin gently patted her daughter’s tiny back. She was frightened again.
“I thought that that was Yi’s child, but it turned out to be only yours. Yi sure had some good luck getting this one-for-one deal.” Her unbelievably sarcastic voice traveled in from the doorway. Actually, without looking, Xia Ruoxin already knew who had come over.
Other than Bai Luoyin, there was nobody else who hated her daughter and her this much. Xia Ruoxin continued to pat her daughter’s back. In return to Bai Luoyin’s hostile words, Xia Ruoxin simply furrowed her brows slightly.
Bai Luoyin entered the room uninvited. She sized up everything in the room. This was Gao Yi’s room. Even she had only came in here a few times, and yet he was going to let this woman live here? How could she be willing? How could she be able to accept this?
“Gao Yi is mine, Xia Ruoxin. You can’t steal him away.” Bai Luoyin walked next to Xia Ruoxin and smiled. However, her smile was cold and aloof. There was nothing she couldn’t get, and it was like that since she was young
Xia Ruoxin backed one step away not because she was scared, but because the smell of perfume was too strong.
“Achoo.”
“Achoo...”
The sounds of two different sneezes resonated at the same time Rainy rubbed her small cheeks. “Mommy, it smells.” She slightly scrunched up her nose. As expected of mother and daughter, they both hated the smell of overly thick perfume.
This damned bastard’s child. Bai Luoyin’s expression became nastier. THIS damn bastard’s child was definitely doing it on purpose. Just now, she said that she was a snake spirit, and now, she was saying that she was smelly. Xia Ruoxin, this was no doubt the daughter that she had raised.
Don’t think that she couldn’t deal with them, and don’t be too reassured just because Gao Yi got their back. This was only temporary because she-Bai Luoyin-had never lost.
Her sharp eyes caught sight of the doll that Rainy had placed on the sofa. Then, she walked over and picked up the doll.
“That’s Rainy’s doll. Give it back to Rainy.” Rainy reached out her small hands. She hated it when other people touched her doll. Mommy bought it for her. Although she had the other doll that Uncle gave her, her favorite doll was still the one that Mommy bought.
“Mrs. Bai, please return the doll to me. That’s my daughter’s doll.” Xia Ruoxin reached out her hands, wanting to take back the doll. She had gotten slightly angry as well.
She could do anything to her. She could scold her or treat her with scorn, but how could she bully her daughter?
“My doll.” Rainy flattened her mouth. She looked at her doll which was held in another person’s hand, feeling extremely upset. Her doll had never left her side before. She loved that doll a lot, and she hated it when other people held it.
She hated it! She hated it! She really hated it! Her eyes reddened, and following that, her tears fell onto the floor. Pit-pat, pit-pat.
“Mrs. Bai, please return my daughter’s doll to me.” Xia Ruoxin repeated herself. If it wasn’t for the crying child in her arms, she would have already gone up to snatch Rainy’s doll back.
“Oh, you want your doll? It sure is shabby; could there be bacteria on it?” Bai Luoyin lifted the doll in her hands feeling, slightly repulsed by it. How disgusting. It was already so torn and tattered, and yet she still treated it like a treasure. Back when she was young, she had never taken fancy to these dolls.
She had a house of dolls. What was this compared to that?
“Dolly.” Rainy reached out her tiny hands, swaying from time to time. “Give me back the doll. Give back the doll that Mommy bought for Rainy. It’s Rainy’s.”
“Alright, I’ll give it back to you...” Bai Luoyin let out an evil smile. Her hands relaxed, and the doll fell onto the floor. Then, her foot stomped forcefully on the doll.
“My doll!” Rainy instantly started wailing. She had never cried so sadly before, and neither had she cried so loudly before. Xia Ruoxin stared dumbfoundedly at the doll on the floor which had been stepped on. She had yet to regain her senses. She didn’t even know that Bai Luoyin had contentedly lifted her chin before swaggering out of the room.
