The Cage Of The Past - Chapter 57

He becomes silent with her answer. Rouzhen Gu doesn’t want to leave early in her house, he still wants to know more about her and Chao. After meal Xiaoxie let him stay.

“Sir, I think you’re just looking for someone to be a mother of your son,” she said.

He had been thinking about the words mentioned by Xiaoxi when he took a shower. She thought he was trying to find a mother for his son. If he doesn’t like this woman, why should he chased her and get her body painstakingly? A random woman who accepted his offer to become a surrogate mother of his son five years ago, Rouzhen never thought he will fall in love with her after the first night they spend together. He was madly in love with his fiancee at that time who can’t bear a child for him, and this innocent woman accepted it in exchange for a huge sum of money but later on, she returns it to him and insisting to get her son back. Fate had played them, making him fall in love with Xiaoxi Chen who refused him several times.

“You don’t accept my proposal because you think I just don’t like you. Do you care about what other people would say when they knew I choose you? Xiaoxi Chen, I am serious yet you didn’t take it to your heart,” he said sadly and the loneliness in his eyes make her feel guilty.

“Okay!” looking at his back, Xiaoxi Chen said with indifference, she knew that he would not like her, so it would be fine, and she won’t feel awkward, somehow there’s a little lost in her heart.

Rouzhen never said anything after hearing Xiaoxi’s answer.

“Chao!” Xiaoxi Chen shouted looking for her son, wanting to know what he is doing?

“Mommy. I webchat with Auntie Chaoxing!” Chao answered her from his room.

“Okay, Mommy will come to your room later after giving the medicine to uncle. Tonight, Mommy will sleep with you!” she said.

“Then Mommy hurry!”

“Sir, I have to put down the medicine and water, here! Rest early!” she quickly said like escaping from something. She allows Rouzhen to sleep in her house. Xiaoxi turned quickly after putting all his needs and walked towards the door.

“Wait!” He suddenly stopped her. “I have something to ask you!”

“What else?” Xiaoxi Chen spoke but did not look back.

He is staring at her back silently, her slender body was very delicate. When he thought about she was rȧpėd, he could imagine the helpless feeling she had, such a slender figure that he couldn’t help but want to hold her in his arms. It hurt so much. She turned her head when she didn’t hear his question.

Seeing that he seemed to be tangled, his face looked awkward and seemed to hesitate to ask something. “Sir CEO? Anything else?”

“You, have you been rȧpėd?” Rouzhen Gu’s voice was low and he felt inappropriate after he asked, but he wanted to know the truth.

Her body is stiff. This is something that all women feel humiliated. How can he repeatedly mention her scar?

Xiaoxi Chen only felt that her heart was so sullen, she couldn’t breathe. His words suddenly made her hurt, and even breathing would also felt pain.

“Sir, is it fun to repeatedly question other people’s past?” Her tone cooled down.

“I… I don’t mean this!” Rouzhen Gu just wants to hear the truth, to know who is Chao’s father.

“What do you mean?” she asked coldly, her eyes flashed with tears.

“Chao is the child after you’re being rȧpėd?” He finally said it.

Xiaoxi Chen’s face turned gloomy. “What does this have to do with you?”

“I just want to know if you are a sŀut or not!” He roared, his emotions were out of control because he was also much entangled, and he wondered if she deserves to be his woman or wife!

“I’m a sŀut! I’m a sŀut! I’m a sŀut! And I can simply get laid with a man who has never shown his face. Even after we get laid, I also don’t know the person’s look! Yes! I’m such a sŀut! Are you satisfied now?” Xiaoxi Chen’s tone was distorted with rage. “What does this have to do with you?”

His expression was stiff upon hearing her words and his lips moved. “How many guys you get laid before?”

“One! One is not enough? Is that what you’re trying to figure out?”

“How could it be one?” He was stunned. “Who is Chao’s father?” he asked impatiently.

If Xiaoxi noticed his words, she might understand something but she ignored it because of her anger. “Bastard!”

Why should she tell her past to him? She is crazy, trying to endure his insult.

Chao suddenly heard the argue sound from his room, then he ran out with some worried to check his Mom, but just arrived at the door of his Mom’s room, he heard the roaring sound.

“I asked you, who is Chao’s father?” Why you still kept his child after you are rȧpėd?”

“I don’t know who was Chao’s dad and also his Mom!” She roared back, tears in her eyes, and suddenly felt aggrieved.

He thought she was a sŀut.

He was wronged. “What do you mean?”

“Chao is not my child at all. He is not a child I gave birth to five years ago. He is the abandoned child I got near my house,” She didn’t know why she suddenly said out his secret. When she said it, her tears fell. “He is very pitiful. He was thrown away by his parents when he was a baby. I brought him in. I brought him in! Do you understand?”

He was stunned!

He is not his mother! He just brings him back! Those words heard by Chao.

Chao was shocked at the door, his beautiful eyes were wide and suddenly tears fell from his eyes.

Hearing it, Rouzhen Gu was stunned and a complex feeling came over his mind, even with a little joy. “Are your words true?”

Xiaoxi Chen staring at Rouzhen Gu’s face, her eyes filled with tears. “Yes, CEO Gu, please don’t ask my past again! It’s not good, talking to someone’s scar!”

Rouzhen Gu looked at her stubborn face in a complicated sight, and suddenly walked over and held her in his arms.

Xiaoxi Chen struggled, but he quickly hugged her. “Sorry! I don’t know about this!”

The door opened, Chao wanted to ask something but saw uncle holding his Mom.

“I thought that Chao is your child, I didn’t expect it to be like this!”

“How can you force me? Chao is very pitiful! We have been living together for so many years, without him, I don’t know what I will be! Rouzhen Gu, how can you always add insult to my injury?” She cried in his arms and a lonely voice can be heard.

He comforted her but did not see the small body standing at the door.

The little boy pressed his lips, tears in his eyes, and there was only a voice left in his mind, he was not his Mommy’s child! He didn’t have a Daddy and Mommy!

As soon as he turned around, he ran out quickly….

“I’m sorry!” Rouzhen Gu forbearance his emotions and patted her back. Suddenly, he thought of Chao. “Hey, don’t cry, Chao stays in the next room!”

Just a word, let Xiaoxi Chen stop crying. Yes! How did she get out of control? What if Chao hears them?

Rouzhen Gu swept at the door and saw it was open. He suddenly asked uncertainty, “It seems like the door is closed just now? Did you hear it?”

Xiaoxi Chen suddenly looked up and realized something.

“Chao? Chao!? She’s screaming.

Xiaoxi Chen strode out. “Chao, where are you? Chao, mommy is calling you! Chao where are you?” she’s been looking at the entire house.

Chao wasn’t in his room and other parts of the house, the computer is still on. And the sound from webchat remains, it is Chaoxing, who was still chatting with Chao, suddenly quiet.

“No!” Xiaoxi Chen made a sharp cry in horror.

“Xiaoxi! Don’t cry, let’s find him together!” Rouzhen Gu also had some panic. Was Chao heard about their conversation? He couldn’t imagine what the child feeling when he heard what they’ve talked about.

“You are not worried! He is not your child! Rouzhen Gu, I tell you, if there is something happen to my child, I will kill you!” Xiaoxi screamed in panic. If it weren’t for him asking her past she would not reveal the secret she’d hiding for how many years.

Xiaoxi Chen quickly ran outside to find and chase her son.

Rouzhen Gu followed her and ran too. The rain outside has been kept on, the rain in late autumn is exceptionally cool.

Xiaoxi Chen was shudder looked at the dark sky with rain, she felt fear when could not see the little figure, her hands clenched and shouted: “Chao, where are you? Hurry up and show Mommy, where are you?”

Under the rain, I can only hear Xiaoxi’s heart-wrenching. “Chao, hurry to Mommy please? Where are you? Mommy is wrong? Mommy is joking with uncle? You are Mommy’s child, and Mommy loved you so much! Son, where are you? Hurry up answer me, please!…

Chao!” Rouzhen Gu also ran out and screaming the child’s name. They both keep on shouting, and looking for Chao but could not find his figure.

Soon, both of them were wet by the rain, Xiaoxi Chen looked forward and run to find her son. “Chao, where are you? Tell mommy where are you? Don’t scare mommy, please?”

Where did the little boy go?

Did he hear it? The only possibility is that he heard it! Rouzhen Gu couldn’t imagine what the child feeling when he hears such a thing,

As long as he thinks of that little face his heart, felt a sudden pain, a feeling of suffocation, and a strong surge of distressed. He thinks that he was too guilty, so his heart had felt so much pain too.

“Chao, where are you? Tell uncle, uncle is joking with your Mommy, it’s fake!” Rouzhen Gu shouted, but no matter how he shouted, no one answer.

Xiaoxi Chen asked everyone who passed by. “Sir, have you seen a five-year-old child? Like this high?”

“No!” Everyone she asked shook their head and only said one word.

“Chao!” Xiaoxi Chen only felt she’s crying hard but no more tears fell from her eyes.

Rouzhen Gu followed her, and inexplicable pain surges in his heart. He grabbed her wrist. ” Xiaoxi don’t worry we can find him!”

Seeing that the sky is getting dark, people are getting less and the street almost empty. She’s getting more panic as she hurriedly checking each corner to find Chao. The kind of feelings that comes in her mind making her feel so much stress: “Let me! Please let me go Rouzhen, you let me go. I need to find my son. Return my son, it’s all because of you, making trouble, forcing me to spill out the secret I’ve been hiding,” she screamed at him.

She began to punched and kicked him out of frustration, Rouzhen Gu did not dodge, just pulled her into his arms. “Don’t cry, I’m here, I will help you to find him!”

“I want my son, I want to see my Chao!” No one knows the importance of Chao to her. Chao is her life. If not with Chao, she may not survive anymore after losing her son!

Both of them were wet. They were in a difficult situation, and there were fewer and fewer cars on the street. Xiaoxi Chen felt more disappointed. “Chao…. Chao…”

“He didn’t want me… my son didn’t want me…” Xiaoxi Chen suddenly looked up at the dark sky when the rain started to pour. A pained smile broke in her beautiful face, her eyes full of tears, and her heart was broken, desperation seemed like invisible darkness that covered her senses. In her heart, an infinite black hole occupied. It seemed to return to the time when she lost her Mom at the age of nineteen. She sold herself in exchange of huge money to save her mother but ended up a painful death of her Mom. The same moment when she lost her biological son, a never-ending pain. She’s scared right now, thinking Chao was also gone.

“Why is God punishing me like this? I never have done wrong to anybody!” she’s crying while looking up the dark sky under the pouring rain. She cried hard, seemed to have all the grievances she had in the past few years hit her, she didn’t know how to talk about it. The face of sadness was filled with sorrow that could not be hidden.

“Xiaoxi!” Rouzhen Gu took over Xiaoxi’s shoulder and let her helpless face stick on his ċhėst. He couldn’t see her gave but she feels all her sadness. He also regretted forcing her to tell the truth. Under the rain, they are looking for Chao which they can’t find.

“Rouzhen Gu! You’re a bastard, you’re bastard…!” Xiaoxi Chen screamed, like a little injured beast, tears falling, so helpless, so sad, large swaths of darkness swept through. However, she can only scream like this, her child was gone.

Why? Why? Why is God so cruel? And people around her always bullying her.

“Huhuhu… ” In a dark building, there was a sobbing sound from the child. It was Chao hiding from them. “Huhuhu… I am a lost child, don’t have Daddy and Mommy…Huhuhu! Mommy is not my real mom!”

“No one wants Chao!…” The little face has been completely drowned by tears, running nose and a full of agony in his little heart. His small body curled up in the dark corner and has been silently sobbing.

“Chao is a good boy, why Mommy doesn’t want me? Why they left me into another Mommy?” Chao’s continue sobbing.
