Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities - Chapter 795
Chapter 795: Don’t Come Back After You Leave
The next day, Lin Qing was sent to the best boarding school. Actually, compared to the other children, he was in a much better state. If he was still in the welfare home, he would be waiting for someone to adopt him. That or the welfare home would sponsor his education in primary school, secondary school, and college; but after he went to university, he would have to figure out a life on his own. They were just orphans with no power or authority; only a few of them could really make it in life.
As for Lin Qing, because of his relationship with Xia Ruoxin, even though it was a boarding school; it was one that was for people of distinguished families. Also, the school had very good facilities. If he still had a conscience, he would remember who gave him this chance, this chance to change his fate… a chance to rise from the ashes.
People must live with gratitude and not turn gratitude into revenge.
Just that, some people would never learn how to be grateful. Perhaps many years down the road, they would realize that they had let the people around them raise a dog that would bite them back.
After Xia Ruoxin’s hand recovered pretty much, she opened Lin Qing’s door and was prepared to tidy up the room. After all, Lin Qing still had to come back during the weekends.
She went in and arranged the items on the table one by one before picking up Lin Qing’s old school bag, preparing to throw it away. When she opened the bag, she found stacks of shredded paper in it. What was that? She took out a page in confusion and used all of her eye power to make out the words on the paper. Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat; and she had a very weird feeling. This looked like Lin Qing’s book… it was his book from this semester.
She sat down on the floor weakly. The child ripped his book apart.
Perhaps she was really wrong. She should not have adopted them at the start and should have let them join a complete family. Now that Guo’er was not around, Lin Qing…
She picked up the bag again and put it back to its original place. She did not wish to touch any of the other things here. Just treat it as Lin Qing’s private place, and she would pretend she did not know anything about the ripped books.
Just as she walked out, she heard the doorbell.
She walked over and opened the door.
After the door opened, it was not anyone else but Song Wan. This time, the two women were standing very close to each other, but they had no intention of being close.
Xia Ruoxin did not want to ask her to enter, and of course, Song Wan entered without asking.
Even though she did not really welcome the guest, Xia Ruoxin still had the basic host manners as she poured a cup of flower tea on the table.
“What’s the matter?” she asked openly. Actually, without asking, she also knew what she was here for. It was impossible that Song Wan came here to reconcile with her or apologize.
If it was good, her face would not be this long.
If it was good, her expression would not be this tense.
If it was good, she would not have kept quiet all the way.
If it was an apology, there would not be so many shortcomings.
“I would not let you enter our Chu family.” Song Wan did not drink the tea as if she did not care for it or had detested it.
“Just that?” Xia Ruoxin was not surprised. This was not the Song Wan of the past; she could even not care about Chu Lui and Chu Jiang, let alone Xia Ruoxin.
“What’s the matter? Is that not enough?”
Song Wan laughed coldly. “Xia Ruoxin, since you have left, you shouldn’t come back again. I’ll let Ah Lui marry a girl with a clean background, not you. Our Chu family does not want this sort of person to enter.”
Even though she did not state it obviously, Xia Ruoxin knew that she was using her Jiang Nan past to insult her. After all, the incident of her being a beer girl was not known to many; but Song Wan knew, and she knew it very clearly.
Yes, she was not innocent. Even though she did not think that she was dirty—to hear those words coming out from someone right in front of her face was as if peeling open the wound that was going to heal, layer by layer. She had exposed her ugliest and most helpless past right in front of her face.
Suddenly, she smiled. Actually, it was not much. This was the truth, and she did not look down on herself. As for the other people, was it related to her?
She stood up and walked to the door to open it.
“Mrs. Chu, I have some stuff on later. Please help yourself.”
Song Wan took her bag and left in big steps. When she reached the entrance, she suddenly turned back.
“I forgot to say that the Chu family only has Chu Xiang as our only child. Your Rainy Gao has nothing to do with the Chu family.”
Xia Ruoxin frowned. Yes, she understood. She knew it clearly.
She stood at the door and stared at Song Wan as she left. She stared at her deeply and coldly; perhaps Song Wan would feel the sting at her back.
At night—after Chu Lui fetched Rainy back, he let her play on her own; and he found out that Xia Ruoxin was a bit weird today.
“What’s the matter? Is there something wrong?”
“Is there?” Xia Ruoxin did not feel anything. She was pretty normal.
“Yes.” Chu Lui extended his hand and pinched her face. “You’re smiling weirdly today. It’s not you. Who are you? What kind of monster is this?”
Xia Ruoxin smacked his hand away and caressed her face gently. She still had to protect her face; even though it might not be pretty anymore—if she did not protect it, it would be even uglier.
“Say. What happened?” Chu Lui sat down and settled his black eyes on Xia Ruoxin. No matter how Xia Ruoxin avoided, she was still trapped in his vision web.
One must admit that this man was a successful businessman. Just with his eyes alone, it was enough to affect the other party. How was this a pair of eyes? It was just like a laser. Nothing could escape that pair of eyes.
Xia Ruoxin continued with her own things; but eventually, she still failed.
“Can you not look at me? Are there flowers on my face?”
No matter how good of a temper she had, she really wanted to scratch walls now.
“Yes, there isn’t.”
Chu Lui frowned lightly, and there was something intentional and meaningful about his expression. The most infuriating thing was that he would not tell and would treat one like a fool, looking at how one would be overwrought, while he was laughing in his heart, mocking one’s carefulness.
That was why this man was terrible if one was his enemy.
“You still haven’t told me. Is there something that you’re hiding from me?” Chu Lui put on a serious tone and had no intention of mocking Xia Ruoxin.
“Is there?” Xia Ruoxin did not spend the past few years in vain. As Rainy grew up, it was impossible that she stayed as naive and dumb as before.
She asked Chu Lui back, and of course, Chu Lui could not answer her.
