Chapter 188: Mommy Had a Doll, Too

“Okay.” Chu Lui nodded and walked over to the jewelry section with his arms around Li Manni. The doll was expensive, and so naturally, the jewelry costs even more. The price was astonis.h.i.+ng, but Chu Lui was never stingy when it comes to a woman, especially Li Manni. She could have whatever she wanted without a frown from him. He would have given her half of Chu Enterprise if that’s what she wanted.

Li Manni picked a necklace with no regard for its cost. Her husband was good at making money, and she has grown used to the lifestyle. He would buy her whatever she wanted.

Anything.

She basked in his pampering and the envy from others. People changed; so did she.

She wanted more and more.

Chu Lui took out a gold card from his wallet and tossed it over. Its credit was unlimited. With Chu Lui’s worth, the day of exceeding its limit would not be here.

He was indeed being very generous to Li Manni and to the other woman. However, he had forgotten that there was one woman to whom he had been stingy. He had not given her anything. Even if he had, he had taken everything back.

Li Manni couldn’t resist giving another glance towards the now-empty display window. She felt annoyed as she would never get the same doll at other places.

From a distance, the setting sun dyed the sky in a shade of red. The mild sunlight shone on everyone, creating a warm atmosphere.

The sunset stretched their shadows longer and longer.

Xia Ruoxin held her daughter’s hand as she walked very slowly while Rainy was trying to keep up with her short legs. In her arms was an extremely beautiful doll.

“Rainy, you have to take very good care of the doll if you really love it. Do you understand?” Xia Ruoxin caressed her daughter’s soft hair and saw that it had turned a light shade of auburn under the setting sun.

She could hardly resist touching the soft head of hair a second time.

“Okay, Mommy. I understand. I will love the doll like the way Mommy loves me.”

At times, the child might be projecting herself as a doll.

Xia Ruoxin narrowed her eyes as though she had thought of something.

“Mommy, too, had a doll once.”

“Did Mommy like it?” The child’s voice remained sweet and sounded very pleasant to the ears.

“I did, but it wasn’t as good as the one you have.” From her recollections, Xia Ruoxin realized that she still remembered some things but not the pain. Her mother had thrown that doll away because Xia Yixuan disliked it.

“Then, Mommy can have my doll.” Rainy had really like the doll and was clearly unable to part with it, but she picked it up and offered it to Xia Ruoxin. “Mommy, you must treat Dolly well. She is my favorite.”

Xia Ruoxin bent down and put the doll back into her daughter’s arms.

“Rainy is Mommy’s favorite doll. So you are enough for me.”

Xia Ruoxin then continued to make the rounds of collection for the laundry when she got back to their apartment. It was already nightfall when she was done. Rainy had fallen asleep.
