She looked up and told herself to be strong, to be determined because Rainys life was resting on her hands. She made her way towards the Chu villa, a location she would never forget. It was a place that had given her heaven as well as hell.

If it was possible at all, she never wanted to set foot into the property. If it was up to her, she never wanted to recall anything.

It was all for her daughter. Everything about her did not matter.

Xia Ruoxin stood, facing the gate of the Chu villa, as she looked at the huge house. It was dozens of times bigger than the apartment that she and Rainy were staying. However, she did not feel that this place was better or safer than her house.

Her family might be small, but she had her loved ones.

This place was huge; yet, one could hardly call it home.

She came to the door, looking poorer than the maids working here. She knocked. Finally, someone answered the door after a long time. There was a dull ache in her heart.

May I know who you are looking for? asked a person with a strange voice. After four years, it turned out that everything had changedno more Xia Ruoxin or Xiao Hong. Then again, someone was still around to ask may I know who you are looking for?

No one knew she was Chu Luis wife or the previous mistress of the house. They had nothing to do with each other, but she had a three-year-old daughter.

Im looking for Chu Lui. Is he in? Her voice was slightly hoarse. It did not sound as mellow as it used to be because she had cried for a very long time.

You are looking for Master? What business do you have with Master? The maid stared weirdly at Xia Ruoxin for the longest time. Her clothes had been worn for many years, and the color had faded due to the numerous washes. Her hair was not very clean, and it looked odd.

She was obviously a pauper. What was she doing here? Was she crazy?

I need to talk to him. Is he in there?

Erh she shouldnt be a lunatic, right?

What business do you have looking for the Master? The maid blocked the doorway with her body, afraid Xia Ruoxin would try to break in. She wasnt worried about her seeing anyone. She was more worried that Xia Ruoxin would step on the floor she had just painstakingly mopped and dirty it. The mopping was done manually bit by bit.

At the sight of the shoes on the shabbily dressed woman, the maid cast a disdainful smile.

Sorry, but I cant tell you. Xia Ruoxin shook her head. I only want to see Chu Lui. Please let me see him. Please?

She could sound humble and behave without dignity. All she wanted was to be able to see that man. Could she?

Mmm this is The maid was put in a tight situation.

Ill get down on my knees for you.

Xia Ruoxin noticed her dilemma. She bent her knees and said she would knee. If that would help save her daughter, she would do it. She would do anything.

Oh, no. You dont have to do this. The maid hurriedly helped her up. Perhaps, it was really a matter of urgency. She would never question her employers about their lives. It was just that this woman was simply sobbing too pitifully. She couldnt bear to see her like this.

Actually, it is not that I dont want you inside. The master and madam are not in here. Even if you come in, it would be useless. You wont be able to see them at all. The maid rubbed her head. You are one step late. They just left.

Left? Xia Ruoxin took a step back as the color drained from her face.

Dont be like this. She felt as if her world had collapsed. The maid was shocked to see her like that. Would she kill herself? Looking at her now, it was clear that she could commit suicide if she didnt see the master.

Left. They left Xia Ruoxin kept repeating the same words. Where did they go? Was it far away? Would she make it in time?

Yes. The maid nodded her head. Madam is pregnant so Master has brought her to the hospital. If you want to find them, you can go to the biggest hospital here to look for them. You

Before she could finish her sentence, she saw that woman turned around and ran in the opposite direction.

Hey, whats the hurry? I just want to say that you should bring an umbrella with you. It might rain soon. The maid continued to mumble to herself. She had never seen such a weird woman.

She closed the door but not before taking another look outside. See, she had said so. It was going to rain, and it would get heavier.

Xia Ruoxin kept wiping at her eyes. Was it because of the rain or her tears that were clouding her eyes, causing her sight to be blurred? Li Manni was pregnant. She was pregnant with his baby.

That would explain why he was unwilling to save her daughter.

Yet, they were both just children. Rainy was his daughter, too.

She never stopped running; neither did she stop crying. After she found the largest hospital in the city, she could see at a glance an inconspicuous black car parking at the entrance as she stood at its gate. However, she could recognize with just one look that that was Chu Luis license plate number. It had not changed for the past four years.

She did not enter but stood outside, allowing the rain to beat on her body and face. Her clothes had been thoroughly drenched from the rain, and there wasnt a clean patch on her clothes. Droplets of rain fell on her face, rolled down the contours of her cheekbones, and onto her lips. The rain had provided some much-needed moisturizing to the dry and already-cracked lips.

She was waiting for them. As long as they come out, she would wait for them.

She believed that if she remained standing at this spot, she would see them. If she went in, she might miss them. There was no room for errors because Rainy couldnt afford to bear the consequences any longer.

The rain gushed down and fell on the body of that disconcerting woman. Her face was paledevoid of all color, and her teeth chattered constantly from the cold. So, she stood in the rain like this, with no intention of seeking shelter.

A shudder escaped from her as she embraced herself with her hands tightly around her shoulders. It turned out that the rain in this season could still be cold and freezing. She stood and shivered in the rain, but she never took her eyes off the hospital entrance.

It wasnt until the pair emerged that a gleam came into her face as she stared unblinkingly at them.

She had waited for them. After all this time, she had finally seen them.

At the hospital entrance, Chu Lui took off his jacket and put it over Li Manni as he shielded his wifes head in annoyance. It had rained. Even though he was holding an umbrella in his hand and while they were not too far away from his car, he was still reluctant to let any rain touched Li Manni.
