Chapter 383: Good Father

Chapter 383: Good Father

She walked into the kitchen as if nothing had happened. She washed the fish and cut it, and when Gao Yi returned with Rainy after his work, she had already completed four dishes: a soup-red-braised fish, steamed eggplants, stir-fried meat, and a plate of tender yellow eggs, as well as a pumpkin porridge and fragrant steamed milk buns.

“Mommy, Rainy is back,” Rainy shouted in the childish voice even before she entered.

She had become more daring, and her tone was lighter now. Xia Ruoxin knew that it wasn’t because of her, but Gao Yi. Rainy was treating Gao Yi like her own father, and with a father, it was like she had someone to back her up now. He was very reliable. No matter what, the position of a father in Rainy’s heart was important.

Gao Yi entered and put Rainy down. She ran to the shoe cabinet and changed to her slippers, then took Gao Yi’s big slippers, and placed it beside him obediently.

“Daddy, wear your shoes.”

Gao Yi lifted Rainy and gave her a peck on the cheek. “Isn’t my Rainy clever?”

The way he referred to Rainy made Xia Ruoxin slightly touched. She wasn’t sure what it was, but it was slightly complicated. However, she wasn’t willing to think too much about it. This was the result of thinking too much.

Rainy beamed, her apple-red cheeks extremely cute and dainty.

Gao Yi changed his shoes and carried her to the sink. He pumped some soap onto Rainy’s small hand, and the pairs of big and small hands were placed under the tap.

“Wash your hands when you enter, wash your hands when you eat;

“Wash the back, and wash the palm.

“Scrub your hands clean;

“Good habits start with you…

“With you, la… la…”

Rainy hummed the song she learned in kindergarten seriously.

It suddenly dawned on Xia Ruoxin that she had really made a mistake in the past. Children would grow up and enter society sooner or later. Children who didn’t wouldn’t grow up, and the same went for Rainy. She might be smart, but she was timid and reticent in the past. Right now, she became much more cheerful.

When they were done washing their hands, Gao Yi pulled Rainy along and sat her on the chair. She was small, and so her legs dangled from the chair.

Xia Ruoxin placed the bowls of rice on the table. Rainy stretched her hand out like she was presenting a treasure.

“Mommy, it’s white.”

She meant that she had washed her hands clean and white.

“Yes, it’s white.” Xia Ruoxin pinched her daughter’s palm playfully. She had gained weight, and her hand was soft and tender. Rainy narrowed her huge eyes, and her soft lips cracked into a smile. Suddenly, Xia Ruoxin felt like her heart just melted. She had never regretted giving birth to Rainy. Despite the many hardships they went through—every time she looked at her daughter’s smiling face, she always felt like it didn’t matter what she experienced.

“Let’s eat.” She picked up some fish into her bowl and removed the bones, feeding some to Rainy. Gao Yi smiled softly beside them without touching his chopsticks.

It felt like he was waiting for the same thing.

She flushed, picked up another piece of fish, and removed the bones before placing it in his bowl.

“Thank you.” Gao Yi started to eat heartily, feeling happy that he received the same treatment as Rainy.

Xia Ruoxin didn’t eat much of the fish. It was Gao Yi who ate the most instead.

“Are you full?” Gao Yi lifted Rainy onto his lap.

Rainy rubbed her tummy and then shyly lowered her skirt.

“Full.” She smiled in satisfaction, her eyes crinkling. A child’s smile was really innocent and genuine, especially that of a girl as beautiful as a Barbie doll. At the age of three, children may or may not be sensible, but Rainy was particularly so—with the mother and daughter having depended on each other for survival.

Gao Yi laughed, pinched Rainy’s cheeks, and then carried her off to play.

It was hard to imagine a man playing house with a little girl patiently, changing the doll’s clothes, combing the doll’s hair, and talking to the doll.

Rainy rubbed her eyes drowsily.

“Let’s go take a shower.”

Gao Yi carried Rainy. She was still young and small.

Xia Ruoxin felt like she didn’t have anything to do, but Rainy seemed to be very dependent on Gao Yi. Sometimes, when she woke up in the middle of the night, she would call out for a dad. Even though this father was late and not her biological father—to Rainy, he was her father, her shoulder, the one she could depend on.

Inside the bathroom, Gao Yi pinched Rainy’s little feet. Rainy was a little reluctant at first, but when she got to know him better, she allowed Gao Yi to touch her feet, too.

Children really got tired easily. She rubbed her eyes and leaned on Gao Yi’s shoulders, falling asleep quickly.

Xia Ruoxin carried the clean-smelling girl from Gao Yi. When the little girl smelt the scent of her mother, she slept even more soundly.

She entered the bedroom, placed her daughter on the soft and huge bed, and then brought the doll in. Rainy hugged the doll instinctively without waking up.

When Xia Ruoxin left the room, Gao Yi was still up. His sleeves were rolled up casually, revealing his strong arm. His clothes were slightly wet, but it didn’t dampen his air of sophistication. This man was completely different from Chu Lui. Chu Lui was dark, gloomy, and clever; he treated his enemies coldly and ruthlessly and would never spare them. However, Gao Yi was different. He was warm, friendly, and gentle, but at the same time, his smile was distant and pushed people away.

Gao Yi noticed the faint smile on Xia Ruoxin’s lips, and he shrugged. “Your daughter loves water. I’m going to change.” He entered his bedroom, and when he came back out, he was wearing another shirt. The first two buttons were unbuttoned, revealing the chest lines that were not distinct but perfect. He really had a good figure. A doctor should be in good shape to be able to pull through the many hours of surgery.

“Come here, Ruoxin.” Gao Yi sat on the sofa and waved at Ruoxin.
