Chapter 522 She is Rainy Gao

“Then… can you call me ‘grandpa’, too, I’m your grandfather.” Chu Jiang expectantly asked. He really wanted to hear her call him grandpa. She had such a cute voice.

“Grandpa…” Rainy obediently called out. Chu Jiang felt tears prickle in his eyes. He hastily turned away, afraid that he was about to cry in front of others. He was not Song Wan. He was a man. If he cried, he was going to become a joke.

“So well-behaved.” It was only after Chu Jiang calmed himself down that he tousled Rainy’s hair. What soft hair, different from his son when he was young. This side of her probably resembled her mother.

This scene of their touching family reunion made even the nanny, who was listening in at the side, had to continuously wipe off her tears. After all these years, the Chu family finally had a child to carry on their family line.

However, they all neglected Chu Xiang whoat that moment-sat atop the sofa, hugging her doll.

“Rainy Gao.”

The sharp voice made Song Wan’s hands that were about to carry her granddaughter freeze in mid-air.

“Rainy Gao?” Song Wan’s hands trembled. She slowly turned her face around, her voice slightly hoarse. “Xiang Xiang, what did you just say?”

Chu Xiang stood up and stopped in front of Chu Jiang who was carrying Rainy. Then, she firmly lifted her small face

“Rainy Gao, why are you in my house; and why are you asking my grandpa to carry you?”

Chu Jiang tightened his arms around his granddaughter, his expression darkening.

“Xiang Xiang…” Song Wan frantically pulled Chu Xiang over. ‘Rainy Gao’, those two words, made her extremely ashamed.

“Xiang Xiang, who did you say was Rainy Gao?”

Chu Xiang reached out her fingers and pointed to Rainy who was in Chu Jiang’s embrace.

“Granny. She is Rainy Gao.”

Bang! Song Wan’s mind seemingly exploded into bits. Rainy Gao, yes… Rainy Gao. RainyRainy was Rainy Gao, and Rainy Gao was Rainy.

How could there be such a coincidence in this world? What was even more coincidental was that she was the one who made everything happen.

Their Chu family’s only child. She could not believe that she had stolen her first place and given it to Chu Xiang. She even made her stand outside in the cold breeze for so long. Song Wan’s face paled. She felt both baffled and unbelievably ashamed.

Whereas, Chu Xiang’s little heart was currently filled with jealousy. Her originally considerably cute face was currently twisted in jealousy. Grandpa had never carried her for so long before. Why was Grandpa carrying Rainy Gao and not her?

Rainy Gao already had her own daddy and mommy. Why did she still have to come and steal her grandpa and granny away?

“Xiao Jiang, bring Xiang Xiang back to her room.”

Said Chu Jiang to the nanny who was in a daze. It was only then that the nanny responded. She hastily carried Chu Xiang back into her room. Chu Xiang was in the end still a child. The moment her two legs left the ground she started wailing for her grandmother.

However, at that moment, believably… no one had the capacity to care about her.

“Let the past be in the past.” He consoled his wife and comfortingly patted her shoulders. “Problems? We can talk about them later. We have guests in our house now.”

It was only then that Song Wan regained her senses.

She awkwardly tidied her clothes. Just then, she realized that she had forgotten about Gao Yi and Xia Ruoxin that were side-lined the entire time.

“Ruoxin, I’m sorry. Uncle and Aunty really got a little too emotional, that’s why we forgot about both of you.” She hastily approached Xia Ruoxin. As for Rainy, she was not worried about her at all. Chu Jiang loved this granddaughter even more than her. Just look, they’re having so much fun together. Normally, he always looked unbelievably composed; but now that he was with his granddaughter, he was like a completely different person.

He looked a lot younger than before. What was more-at such an old age, he was still making funny faces just to amuse his granddaughter. Although it was not that amusing, at least he was putting in the effort to make them.

“Sorry, you are…” Song Wan looked confusingly at Gao Yi. Regarding his identity, she could pretty much guess who he was. After all these years, her son had already remarried for four years. Xia Ruoxin couldn’t have been alone for all those years, too. Actually, it was better this way. Otherwise, they would’ve felt even sorrier towards her during those four years.

“Mrs. Chu, nice to meet you, I’m Gao Yi.” Gao Yi generously introduced himself. There was no excessive sense of caution or reservation. His hand naturally held Xia Ruoxin’s, never letting go since the beginning.

Certainly nobody in the room—the nanny included—thought that he and Xia Ruoxin were just friends.

Gao Yi and Rainy Gao’s relationship… Was there any need to guess?

“So this is Mr. Gao.” Song Wan forced a smile on her face. Perhaps she felt more worried and ashamed, all because of those two words ‘Rainy Gao’. This man’s eyes had always seemed rather limpid. However, the ‘Gao’ surname made his gaze feel like needles, stabbing into Song Wan’s heart and making her feel uneasy.

Her granddaughter had another surname, but she had no right to say anything. While other people were trying their best to protect her granddaughter-as her grandmother, she stabbed her in the back instead. She did so while thinking she was hurting a stranger; however, in the end, she was actually hurting herself.

Rainy’s trust towards this man and this man’s love towards Rainy-it was easy to tell. He must be treating Rainy very well. If so, that’s good. Yes, that was enough. As long as their granddaughter wasn’t suffering… as long as their poor child wasn’t having a hard time.

“

Just because their son didn’t cherish her, it didn’t necessarily mean that she couldn’t be cherished by other people.

“Rainy is very well-behaved,” Song Wan proudly said. She looked over at the child playing with Chu Jiang; she really was well-behaved. She didn’t scream or whine. She simply sat there quietly, that old doll never leaving her embrace.

“Yes, since she was young, she had always been very obedient. When she was born, she was also like that. She would only open her eyes to look at people. It was rare to see her cry.” Xia Ruoxin felt that she understood the word ‘well-behaved’ more than anybody. She casually spoke about Rainy’s past. Everybody told her that her daughter was very well-behaved, and it was exactly because she was so well-behaved that they could be alive today—both Rainy and herself.

She would care for her mother, and she would help her mother with many things. It was a mystery where she learned how to do all those things. Sometimes, she was so well-behaved that it made Xia Ruoxin’s heart ache.

“Really?” Hearing the stories about her granddaughter, Song Wan’s eyes shimmered. “Then do you have any pictures of her when she was young? Can you show me?” She really wanted to know what her granddaughter looked like when she was a baby. She must have looked extremely adorable back then.

Xia Ruoxin shook her head. “Sorry, Rainy doesn’t have any photos.” The only records of Rainy’s childhood were in her notebook.

“Oh, that’s alright.” Song Wan was a little disappointed. However, it was still not too late. She could just start recording every milestone of her granddaughter’s growth from then on.
