Chapter 675: Why Does Mei Mei Not Like Me?

The caretaker smiled but sighed to herself as she looked towards Chu Xiang. At this rate, something was bound to happen.

Chu Xiang’s position in the family would become more awkward. Perhaps her decision to join the family was a wrong one.

Song Wan hurriedly added a few more dishes. Outside, Rainy was playing with Chu Jiang. Chu Xiang, on the side, was jealous. She was jealous that Grandpa and Daddy would smile at Mei Mei.

“Dinner’s ready; come eat.” Song Wan dried her hands on her clothes as she walked out of the kitchen. She wanted to pick up her granddaughter.

However, when she approached, Rainy hid in Chu Jiang’s arms and turned away, clearly unwilling. The child’s rejection made Song Wan upset. She did not know what Chu Jiang had that she did not. Why was the child so close to him but so distant towards her?

“Let’s eat first; my Rainy’s hungry.” Chu Jiang smoothed things over as he brought Rainy over to eat.

“Yeah, let’s eat first.” Even though Song Wan was upset, she knew that dinner was more important. They could not let the children starve.

At the table, Chu Xiang needed to be fed. She was already six years old, but she was spoiled. Chu Lui put some rice into a new bowl for Rainy and gave her a spoon.

“Eat by yourself, and let Uncle know what dishes you want.”

“Thank you, Uncle.” Rainy thanked Chu Lui as she picked up her spoon to eat. She was not a picky child. She ate whatever she was given, and she did not ask for anything.

On the other hand, Song Wan was left feeling rather awkward. She hurriedly set her bowl down. “Xiang Xiang, can you eat by yourself? Mei Mei’s already eating by herself.”

Chu Xiang picked up her spoon to feed herself indignantly, but she struggled clumsily.

Rainy, on the other hand, was used to feeding herself. Even though she was a slow-eater, she did not spill any food. Mommy had told her that it was important to cherish her food, even more so because it did not come easy.

Chu Jiang patted Rainy’s head with a smile. This child was, without a doubt, a child of our family. She’s exactly like Ah Lui was when he was a child. They both have the same expression when eating.

Even though one might think that Rainy resembled her mother at first sight, the child’s personality took after the father’s.

He would fight anyone who said that she was not his granddaughter.

...

Chu Jiang held Rainy’s hand and brought her to the playroom. It was filled with toys.

“Rainy, play by yourself for a little. Grandpa will be right over.” He bent over and set the child down on a child. He had something that he had to attend to, and there was nothing to worry about since there were nannies in the house.

Rainy sat on the chair obediently. She would glance at the toys before her occasionally after Chu Jiang’s departure, but she did not move; neither did she pick up anything to play with. She set her hands on her knees and sat up straight.

Chu Xiang entered carrying a doll and stood before Rainy.

“Hi, Xiao Jie Jie.” Rainy greeted Chu Xiang politely with a shy smile, which accentuated her cuteness.

Chu Xiang squeezed the doll in her arms tightly. She found that she disliked Mei Mei even more with each moment.

...

Chu Jiang heard a child’s cries when he returned. His heart rose to his throat as he hurried over. He opened the door to see Chu Xiang crying as she sat on the floor. Rainy was hugging a doll with her lips pursed.

Song Wan hurried over and picked Chu Xiang up the instant she saw the child on the floor. Subconsciously, she looked over at Rainy reprimandingly.

However, she paused when she met Rainy’s dark blue eyes, eyes that were the same shade as her son’s. Looking at the expression and face that resembled her son’s, there was an indescribable sense of awkwardness.

“Rainy, there are a lot of dolls here. Don’t fight with Xiao Jie Jie. See? She’s crying,” she said as she cajoled Chu Xiang. She had no idea what she had said until it was too late. The words had already been spoken.

Rainy pursed her lips like her mother did.

Bang! The doll in her arms fell to the floor. Chu Xiang was still crying as she grabbed onto Song Wan’s clothes, still choked with emotion.

“Granny, did Xiang Xiang do something wrong? Why doesn’t Mei Mei like me?”

“Of course, my Xiang Xiang didn’t do anything wrong,” Song Wan cajoled Chu Xiang as she held the child in her arms. “Mei Mei’s still young. Xiang Xiang, let Mei Mei have the doll. Granny will buy you another one, okay?”

“Okay.” Chu Xiang nodded. However, her eyes were fixed on Rainy’s eyes with dislike.

She disliked this Mei Mei. It was best that she never came again to steal her Granny and Grandpa.

Rainy bit on her lips as she pinched the hems of her dress. She sniffled but did not cry. At this point, a pair of hands reached out to hug her.

Chu Jiang touched Rainy’s tiny face.

The child leaned her head on Chu Jiang’s chest. She missed her mother.

...

When Chu Lui returned, his parents seemed to be upset with each other.

“Do you have to treat me like this?” Song Wan stuck out her leg and kicked Chu Jiang. “Rainy’s my granddaughter, too. My biological granddaughter. Wouldn’t I dote on her? Then again, she snatched the doll from Xiang Xiang and made her fall. That’s not nice. Even though she’s small, she needs to be educated. I didn’t even say anything, and you got upset first.”

Chu Jiang’s face was glum. He did not want to argue with his wife. The more they argued, the bigger the problem got; and if that was the case, he would never get to see his granddaughter again.

“Dad, Mom, what’s wrong?” Chu Lui walked over and wedged himself between the two. His parents have not argued in a decade, but now, they were at each other’s throats.
