Chapter 526 - The Chu Family’s Child is Naturally Different

Chapter 526 The Chu Family’s Child is Naturally Different

Just like that, peaceful days passed. Whenever there was a chance, the Chu husband and wife would head to the nursery to see Rainy. Xia Ruoxin sending Rainy back to school made things a lot more convenient for them. Chu Lui still hadn’t taken any action. However, nobody knew that—actually-certain things were already being carried out by him.

In the past, it was always Song Wan going to the nursery alone, but now, Chu Jiang was going with her.

Song Wan could be considered the nursery’s frequent visitor. However, Chu Jiang’s arrival —that really shocked the director. This retired CEO of the Chu Enterprise was, back in those years, an extremely cruel lord who destroyed competitors in the market, without a second thought.

However, now that he had aged, he did indeed lose that foul and foreboding air that he used to have. He looked a lot more amiable. Despite this, what the director cared about was his identity and his malicious nature that had diminished but still remained. Just like Chu Lui, he was a lord they couldn’t afford to offend.

If they wanted to come, then they should just come. Anyway, they recently donated another large sum of money to the nursery, allowing the facilities in the nursery to undergo renovation again. The only thing that made the director surprised was that they had started giving Rainy Gao special treatment instead of Chu Xiang. Wasn’t the Chu family’s child Chu Xiang? Just a while ago, they even…

Just then, Chu Jiang’s gaze landed on the director. The slight, cold cautionary undertones made the director neither dare to continue his mindless guesses nor open his mouth to ask about it. Not even if he was more courageous.

“Granny…” The moment Chu Xiang saw Song Wan, she hastily ran out of the school, reaching out her two hands to ask Song Wan to carry her.

However, Song Wan’s gaze remained on the nursery, seemingly looking for something.

“Xiang Xiang, where’s Rainy?”

In that instant, Chu Xiang nursed a grievance. She turned her small head around, and after a while, started biting her small lips.

“Granny, Rainy Gao is in the classroom.”

Chu Jiang walked right into the school, and when he walked out, there was a child in his embrace. If it wasn’t Rainy, who else could it be?

“Are you thirsty?” Chu Jiang took out a bottle of water from his pocket. The bottle even came with a straw just so Rainy could drink from it.

“Thank you, Grandpa.” Rainy received the bottle and started drinking from it. She remembered that this was her water bottle. It was this grandpa who brought her to buy it. It even had her favorite pink little piggy on it.

“Good girl.” Chu Jiang carried his granddaughter to the side, and in the next moment, he was taking out sweets and putting them into his granddaughter’s pocket as if he was performing a conjuring trick.

Chu Xiang’s eyes were red with jealousy. Ever since the day Rainy Gao started calling her grandpa ‘Grandpa’ and her granny ‘Granny’, Granny stopped being as loving as she used to be; and Grandpa, who was always cold to her, stopped carrying her and started carrying this Rainy Gao instead.

“What do you think is going on?” A teacher carefully asked Teacher Xiao Meng. “Why do weird things always happen in your class? It’s not a big deal for these grandparents to accompany their child to school, but why would they treat another child so well?”

“I also don’t know why.” Teacher Xiao Meng was also confused. Nobody told her anything; how was she supposed to know?

However, she was certain that there had to be a lot of juicy gossip behind this situation. It was just that she couldn’t ask about it now. Of course, she also didn’t have the guts to ask about it. Who were they? They were Chu Lui’s parents, only people who didn’t want to live would dare to provoke them.

Right after Xia Ruoxin sent her daughter into the nursery, she saw Chu Jiang and Song Wan heading towards her. The two of them wore simple clothing. They looked very casual, just like any normal middle-aged married couple. Both of their faces didn’t look that old. In fact, at that moment, they actually looked a little younger-somewhat as if they had returned to their original state, laying themselves bare without any adornment.

“Ruoxin.” Song Wan walked over, smiling at Xia Ruoxin. “Are you heading to work?”

“Yes.” Xia Ruoxin glanced at her watch. “It’s getting late. I should get going.”

“Wait, Ruoxin.” Song Wan couldn’t help herself and called out to Xia Ruoxin.

“Aunty Song, is something wrong?” Xia Ruoxin stopped in her tracks. She didn’t know what Song Wan had to say to her that made it so difficult for her to speak up.

“Ruoxin, I have an unreasonable request.” Song Wan thought a lot about this; however, when the words left her mouth, it still felt extremely hard to say.

Xia Ruoxin pressed her lips together, her expression becoming desolate.

It was because of Rainy, right?

“Ruoxin, can we bring Rainy home for one day? I promise it’ll only be a day.”

Song Wan warily said. From the sidelines, Chu Jiang looked like he wanted to say something but couldn’t bring himself to interrupt.

Xia Ruoxin didn’t reply. Instead, she simply took a look at her watch and then turned around to leave.

“It’s alright.” Chu Jiang gripped Song Wan’s hand. “As compared to what she had gone through, this is nothing. We shouldn’t blame her. Things aren’t easy for her. She gave us a granddaughter despite how we used to treat her. As of now, allowing us to meet our granddaughter frequently like this instead of hiding her like before, she’s already being very nice to us.”

“I know that.” Song Wan gripped her husband’s hand back. “Let’s go. Let’s go into the nursery.”

The two of them had accompanied each other up until their twilight years, and yet recently, they were getting along even slightly better than before. They had never felt that there was anything wrong with them coming to the nursery. On the contrary, they actually thought that it was the most correct thing that they had done so far.

It was just that Song Wan always felt like her granddaughter didn’t like her but liked Chu Jiang more instead. She just couldn’t understand. She was way gentler and friendlier than Chu Jiang so why didn’t Rainy like her?

“You did this to yourself.” With this one sentence from Chu Jiang, Song Wan didn’t dare to continue questioning Rainy’s behavior anymore.

“But Rainy is still a child.”

Song Wan couldn’t help but softly complain. One couldn’t blame her for complaining; with her granddaughter treating her coldly, she was really on the verge of a mental breakdown.

“Child?” Chu Jiang couldn’t resist his laughter. “When Ah Lui was three years old, he was already able to remember many things. Rainy’s character resembles Ah Lui’s. She’s very smart. She knows very well in her heart how you have treated her. Don’t look down on her just because she’s a child.”

“But Xiang Xiang’s not like that.”

Song Wan didn’t feel like Chu Xiang could remember a lot of things. Chu Xiang was already five, but the only things she knew how to do were just how to eat and drink. She didn’t have much of her own thoughts.

“That’s because she isn’t the Chu family’s child.” Chu Jiang loved his granddaughter the most, and he was extremely clear that Rainy was very smart; whereas Chu Xiang was plain ordinary. Their Chu family genes were just superior; what could someone do about it?

Sigh. Song Wan let out a sigh. Then, she touched the handful of snacks in her pocket. She needed to keep up her fighting spirit. The earlier she received recognition from her granddaughter, the earlier Rainy was going to forget about the silly things that she did.

They had just arrived when Xiao Pangzi started running towards them. However, he was so hasty that he ended up falling with a loud ‘bang’.

“Aiya, how did you fall down?” Song Wan quickly walked over to help Xiao Pangzi up. Thankfully, the floor of the nursery was covered with a thick floor mat, and the child was wearing rather thick clothes. Otherwise, he could have gotten a nosebleed and a swollen face from the fall.
