<strong>Chapter 467 Enough</strong>


    He clenched his hands as he raised his head. However, he could no longer see the house that was nearby. The curtains lowered once again. There were movements on his lips while he mumbled to himself, even though he didn’t know what he was talking about. He pulled his ck coat tighter around his body, and let the wind and snow blow into his exposed neckline. Nevertheless, he didn’t feel cold at all. A long trace of footsteps trailed behind him as he walked further and further away. The snow continued to fall and covered his steps making it seem as though no one had walked here.


    Rainy ran over with Dolly in her arms. She sat on the sofa and stared at her mother with her bright eyes.


    “What is it?” There were times when Xia Ruoxin wanted tough at her daughter’s expression. Was the girl conjuring a mastermind in her mind? “Do you want cake?”


    Rainy nodded her head, but then she shook her head again.


    Did she want to or not? Xia Ruoxin remembered there was a cake in the fridge. She had bought it yesterday, and Rainy hadn’t eaten a lot yesterday. She might have recalled that there was still half a slice left.


    Rainy pouted and asked her mother cautiously, “So, Mommy, can I have it?”


    “Of course, you can.” Xia Ruoxin stood up and held her daughter’s hand. Then, she opened the fridge and took out the cake. Rainy’s eyes lit up as she licked her lips in anticipation. Oh, she really wanted the cake.


    “Here.” Xia Ruoxin put a fork in her daughter’s hand.


    “Thank you, Mommy.” Rainy smiled sweetly. Her ck irises showed shades of blue which resembled someone. Xia Ruoxin came to a sudden realization that as her child grew older, she was beginning to look more and more like that man, especially her character. It was uncanny. Blood rtions could be a really scary thing.


    She caressed her daughter’s hair. This child was the best choice she had made all her life. No matter how tough it had been on her, she had not regretted it. She recounted all that turmoil from the past and how she had given birth to Rainy. All the memories shed past in her mind like a dream. She had almost forgotten how hard it had been for her to raise Rainy alone. No words could even begin to describe how she had survived for the past four years.


    “Mommy, it tastes so good.” Rainy’s eyes narrowed as she smiled in content. She had smeared a lot of cream onto her face.


    Xia Ruoxin wiped the cream off her daughter’s face while Rainy happily stuffed another piece of cake into her mouth.


    The snow was falling heavily outside. Everywhere was covered in feathery snow, crystal-like and frosty. They fell constantly onto the ground.


    When Gao Yi returned, the sky was almost dark. His shoulders were covered in ayer of snowkes. He patted them off before he entered the house. Whatever remained on his shoulders had begun to melt from the warmthing from the house.


    “You’re back.” Xia Ruoxin came out from the living room. As soon as she saw Gao Yi, she hurriedly took a clean towel and approached him.


    Gao Yi neither moved nor epted the towel.


    Xia Ruoxin had to stand on her toes and wiped the snow away from him. His hair was wet from the melted snow. Xia Ruoxin reached up and wiped the melted snow off his body. The clean towel felt warm from being ced inside the house while the heater was turned on. It smelled of freshundry soap. Not only did it melt the snow on Gao Yi, but it also warmed the cold look in his eyes.


    Gao Yi wasn’t an easy person to live with. He might appear to be smiling and gentle, but he wouldn’t allow anyone to get close to him. Xia Ruoxin didn’t know what sins or the wrongs she hadmitted in this life for her to have met Chu Lui. On the other hand, she also had no idea what good she had done and umted in her previous life to have let her meet Gao Yi.


    This man had saved Rainy and herself from the brink of death. They had only managed to survive until now without any issues or the cold all because Gao Yi had been protecting them.


    “What are you thinking of?” Gao Yi scratched at his unruly hair. It made him look wild instead of his usual gentle self. However, Xia Ruoxin didn’t see the slightly gloomy look in his eyes.


    “Nothing. I was reminiscing the past.” Xia Ruoxin continued to wipe the snow off him. “All done.” She looked up and smiled at Gao Yi. Her smile was pure like a pear blossom, brilliant like sakura-filled with simplicity like a child who hadn’t been harmed before.


    Since she was young, she had been treated unfairly numerous times. She had also been forcibly med for the wrongdoings by the others. Even those closest to her like her mother and her husband had caused her to grieve.


    It hadn’t been easy for her to still be able to smile like this.


    Gao Yi suddenly reached out with his hands and ced them on her face. The snow on him might be cold, but his fingers were warm.


    “Ruoxin...” An alluring voice filled with charm called for her. Xia Ruoxin’s lips parted slightly. Suddenly, his face magnified as he closed in before her. He came closer and at the same time, his features became clearer until she could practically count the number of eyshes. He was so close that she could see each strand of his eyshes.


    The man’s lips came down on hers, and a gentle kiss ensued. Xia Ruoxin could smell the fragrance of wool on the man’s body as well as a light disinfectant smell. That was the signature of a doctor. Her heart throbbed. If this was her liking him, then perhaps she truly did.


    No woman would be able to resist a man like this. He treated someone well, so well that the person couldn’t help but be moved by him. Being fond of someone came after gratitude and being touched. It was easy to be fond of a man like this, especially for someone like Xia Ruoxin who had been through all kinds of hardships. All it took was a little warmth, and she would be content. The way Gao Yi had showered her with so much warmth-it was enough for her to give up her life for him.


    “Mommy, Daddy, what are you doing?”


    Both of them separated quickly. However, the way their hearts had pounded from what happened earlier and the breath of familiarity with their lips had caused them to feel awkward.


    Rainy ran over and hugged both of Gao Yi’s legs. She nted her head curiously. “Daddy and Mommy are ying a kissing game. Can I y, too?” Her childish voice and naivety made Gao Yi rubbed his head. With such an active daughter, he couldn’t help but wonder what kind of problems he would be having in the future.


    He bent down, scooped the little imp up, and promptly kissed her hard on her cheek. The little girl was bing prettier by the day. Her thin face had gained some meat. She looked chubby now. All children had baby fat, a pair of big round eyes, and a slender chin. However, one could only see a pair of eyes on this child’s tiny face.
