Chapter 478 Banging Stomach

“Yes.” One word. Shen Yijun didn’t see the need to elaborate. Song Wan felt awkward, and she wanted to talk about something else. However, she realized there wasn’t much to say between the both of them.

Was she supposed to be apologetic, or did Shen Yijun feel the same? Nowadays, whenever they met, they would sit with each other without a word like what they were doing now.

Xia Ruoxin set her daughter down on the ground. Rainy held her mother’s hand obediently and followed her footsteps. She walked away on her tiny feet, leaving the two persons behind. They were related to her in a way, but she didn’t feel sorry for not knowing them.

“Rainy, do you feel sad without a maternal or paternal grandmother?”

Xia Ruoxin squeezed her daughter’s hand abruptly as she attempted to ask. Perhaps, Rainy might not understand what she was saying

Rainy blinked her eyes and held her mother’s hand tight.

She pouted while she kicked at the stones beside her foot. Not everyone had paternal or maternal grandparents. Some children in the kindergarten had their grandmother to fetch them while others had either one of their parents. In Rainy’s opinion, she could do without grandparents, but not her mother.

“Mommy, I want cake.” Her head snapped up at the thought of eating a sweet and soft cake.

“Okay, I understand.” Xia Ruoxin ran her knuckle along Rainy’s cheek, and then she brought her daughter along to buy her cake. Since she was young, Rainy had never taken the initiative to voice out what she wanted. Now that their financial situation had improved, she had not changed. Her daughter seldom asked for things. Since she wanted a cake, Xia Ruoxin was willing to buy her ten, without blinking an eye. The only concern she had was buying too much. The cake would go bad if it wasn’t finished.

They went to the cake house that they would usually patronize. Xia Ruoxin paid the smallest cake that Rainy had picked. She sat her daughter on a chair and let her savor it on her own. It might be a small cake, but for a child, it was enough.

“Are you done?” She poked gently at her daughter’s face smeared with cake cream. Then, she couldn’t resist pinching Rainy’s apple-shaped face. It was smooth and pink like a doll’s, which was exquisitely adorable.

“Done,” Rainy replied in her childish voice as she jumped from the chair. She pulled Xia Ruoxin’s hand. “Mommy, can we go visit Daddy?”

Xia Ruoxin checked the time. It was almost 5 o’clock. If everything went well, Gao Yi would be finis.h.i.+ng work at seven o’clock.

“Mommy, can we go?” Rainy tugged at her mother’s hand.

“Alright, let’s go find Daddy.” Xia Ruoxin took her daughter’s small hand after buying another cake. Rainy bit on her tiny finger. “Mommy, is that for me?”

“It’s for Daddy.” Xia Ruoxin pointed at Rainy’s tummy. “Baby, you can’t have any more cake. If you do, your tummy will explode.”

Rainy quickly covered her stomach worried that it would really explode. Her eyes widened, and her lips shriveled in fear. That stopped her from having second thoughts of eating the cake.

Xia Ruoxin put the cake box in her daughter’s hand and scooped the little girl up. Her left arm had regained some of its strength lately. It was no longer exhausting for her to carry her daughter.

“Doctor Gao, your daughter is here.” A nurse knocked on Gao Yi’s door happily. She could see the Big and Little Beauties coming from afar especially the little one. Her features were so beautiful that she wished she could give her cheeks a good pinch.

Coincidentally, Gao Yi had just finished seeing a patient. He raised his arm and checked the time. One more hour to go, and he could leave for the day. Looked like they would have to wait for him.

“Daddy…” Little Beauty was already pus.h.i.+ng the door open. She ran in and hugged Gao Yi’s legs. What a soft and cuddly child. This was the age where they were the most adorable when they could talk and answer back. Gao Yi carried Rainy. “What are you doing here?”

“I miss Daddy.” Rainy nuzzled adoringly against Gao Yi’s neck. She was really close to him.

Gao Yi pinched her cheek and set her down on a chair at the side while he listened to her continuous chatter.

Xia Ruoxin placed the cake box on the table which she had bought after Rainy finished her cake. “You must be hungry. Eat this first.”

Gao Yi wasn’t a big fan of desserts. However, Xia Ruoxin was the one to buy it so he must be appreciative. He opened the packaging and was going to give Rainy the first bite.

Rainy quickly circled her arms around her tummy. “Daddy, I have eaten. If I eat some more, my tummy will bang-bang.” “Bang, bang?”

Gao Yi stuffed a piece of cake into his mouth. What bang, bang?

“It means bang… bang…”

Rainy moved her lips and repeated the two words frequently.

Gao Yi frowned. He reached out and placed his palm against Rainy’s full forehead. “What is wrong with her?” he asked Xia Ruoxin, puzzled.

Xia Ruoxin rubbed her eyebrows. It seemed she had scared her child. “It was nothing.” She poked her daughter’s cheek. “She has already had a slice of cake earlier. I told her that if she was to eat more, her tummy would explode. Perhaps, she thought of the sound of firecrackers and how it exploded.”

“Bang…”

Rainy’s little mouth echoed that one word with style. Naturally, her hands were still circled around her tummy. She was terrified it would explode.

Gao Yi was caught between laughter and tears. He took another mouth of the cake and allowed its heart-warming sweetness spread throughout his body. Xia Ruoxin took out a cup from the cabinet, fetched some water intending to give it to Rainy. However, her daughter kept chewing on her fingers. Truth be told, she really wanted to eat another slice of cake, but she was terrified of her tummy exploding. Thus, she had to endure. Gao Yi didn’t attempt to feed her another mouth again. She had grown some new teeth recently, and it would be best to cut down on the sweet stuff. Otherwise, she might have a toothache.

“Doctor Gao, there are two patients outside, from a car accident.” A nurse ran in anxiously. “Can you please go to the Emergency Room immediately? The doctor on duty happened to be away.” Gao Yi put his fork aside and set Rainy down from his lap. It was unlikely he would be able to finish on time.

“It’s fine. We’ll be waiting right here since we have nothing much to do.” Xia Ruoxin took her daughter from Gao Yi.

“Thank you so much.” Gao Yi ran his hands on Xia Ruoxin’s hair to tidy it. It was short, touching her ears. He was originally feeling a bit frustrated, but after looking at the big and small faces which closely resembled each other, he was beginning to feel calmer.
