Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

"I want a divorce." Gao Yi took back his hand, and on his worn-out face, there was no hint of a smile.

"No!" yelled Bai Luoyin. "I don't want a divorce. Over my dead body. Gao Yi, you want to leave me to be with that woman, right? I'm telling you. Impossible. I will never allow it. Even if I'm dead, you can never be with that woman."

Suddenly, she laughed like a psycho. She had clearly lost all her sanity. "Gao Yi… hehe… I bet you don't know.

"I injected some drugs into your body. Hehe… I gave you drugs." She scratched her face and pulled her clothes. "Next time, you can't ever leave me. You can only stay here by my side, forever and ever. Even if you die, you will die with me."

The door opened, and two police officers walked in with each taking one side, holding Bai Luoyin tightly. Just based on what Bai Luoyin had said, it was enough to convict her. Gao Yi pulled his lips and walked away with big steps, but he could still hear Bai Luoyin's maniac shouts.

Perhaps, this woman had already become crazy a long time ago. She had lost herself in the torturous stages of not having, not being able to beg, and having then afraid of losing. She had pushed herself to the point of no return.

Once again, Bai Zhenfeng and Gao Yi sat facing each other; Bai Zhenfeng was old, and Gao Yi was skinny.

Both parties opposite each other almost could not recognize the other. It was only a few months that they had not seen each other, but the changes between them were drastic until they could not believe it themselves. It turned out that the vicissitudes of life would change, and one look would mean millions of years.

It was but a turn, but everything had changed.

"Gao Yi, I'm sorry." Bai Zhenfeng owed Gao Yi and apology and owed Wei Lan one even more.

Gao Yi smiled coldly. "I think Bai Luoyin owes you an apology. It's her mistake, and yet you need to pay for it."

Bai Zhenfeng's face tensed up; he knew what Gao Yi was going to say.

"About your mother…" He did not know how to ask, and it was extremely difficult to speak.

"I respect her decision." Gao Yi's fingertips touched the side of the cup. He would not interfere with Wei Lan's decision. Perhaps life would be better when they leave the Bai family.

"What about Luoyin?" Bai Zhenfeng shifted the topic from himself to Bai Luoyin. He now no longer hoped that Gao Yi would take the rap for Bai Luoyin as there was simply no way of doing so. Now, his only wish was that Gao Yi would not sue Bai Luoyin. Perhaps there was a chance.

Gao Yi picked up the cup and placed it on the table again. This sound made Bai Zhenfeng's heart go 'peng' with it, thus missing a beat.

"I won't sue Bai Luoyin." Gao Yi's voice was light, and his facial features were pale. He smiled, but his smile was cold and did not reach his eyes.

Bai Zhenfeng heaved a sigh of relief, but Gao Yi was not done talking.

"Uncle Bai, Luoyin might have some mental issues. She might be sent to serve a compulsive order at the mental hospital."

As soon as he was done speaking, Bai Zhenfeng's eyes were as large as saucers. He could not believe what he had just heard. Compulsive order to the mental hospital… and to make things worse, a mental patient with an assaulting criminal record. He could just predict what this illness would bring for his daughter; she could never erase this her whole life.

As for him, Bai Zhenfeng, from this day onward, he was really going to become alone.

His wife wanted to divorce him, and his daughter was now in the mental hospital. She had a criminal record of assaulting someone; she was forced to enter the mental hospital. Moreover, his stepsons that he had raised up had also left him.

He fell back on the chair weakly and could not recover his senses in a long time.

CCO

All the while, Gao Yi stood up and left a long time ago.

The sun outside scatter its rays on him and showed off the sharp bones on his face. He placed his hand on his face; he really looked like a ghost.

Knock, knock. He knocked on the door.

Not long later, the door opened. Rainy stuck her head out and paused for a while when she saw the person outside.

"Daddy…" She bit her finger and sniffed as if she was scared and also observing. However, the filial piety in her eyes never changed. No matter what had happened-in Rainy's heart, Gao Yi would always be her dad. Her first dad.

"Come over, precious, give Daddy a hug."

Gao Yi squatted down and extended his hand towards Rainy. His blood was running in this child. This child was his, too-she always was.

"Daddy." Rainy ran over and hugged Gao Yi's neck.

"Daddy, is it that you don't want Rainy anymore so you didn't come home?" She pouted her lips. She missed her father so much, but her mother said that her father had gone to a faraway place to make money and needed a very long time before he came back. However, she did not know what a very long time meant; to her, a very long time meant that her father did not want her anymore.

"Why would I? You see, I'm already back." Gao Yi carried the child standing on the floor. It had been a long time since he had carried the child. With the small body in his arms, he felt a bitter taste in his mouth and heart.

He stood up. The child in his arms had become chubbier but was still as obedient as last time.

"Rainy, who is it outside?"

Upon seeing Rainy answering the door but not returning in a long time, Wei Lan asked. Then, Gao Yi carried Rainy and walked in.

"Mom…" he called.

'Peng!' Wei Lan dropped the bowl on the table. Luckily, the bowl was strong and did not break.

"Xiao Yi…"

Wei Lan walked forward and extended her shaky hands to caress her son's face. "You're so skinny…"

"I will be back in shape soon. Very soon." Gao Yi smiled at his mother and hugged the child in his arms tighter. That was right, he would be back in shape, real soon.

Xia Ruoxin came out of the kitchen, and once she saw Gao Yi, she finally dropped the stone in her heart. Was everything over?

"Ruoxin, I'm back." Gao Yi smiled at Xia Ruoxin, but his smile was accompanied by a slight sigh.

He was back, but everything had changed.

"It's good that you're back. Let's eat." Xia Ruoxin heaved a sigh of relief before heading back into the kitchen and bringing out the rest of the food.

None of them brought up the Bai family incident; neither did they talk about Bai Zhenfeng or Bai Luoyin. This meal was perhaps the best meal and the happiest one they had lately.

Xia Ruoxin helped Gao Yi tidied up a room. She changed everything inside the room to Gao Yi's favorite color. There was also a vase of roses by the bed, which gave off a slight fragrance. Hopefully, this fragrance could let Gao Yi have a good night's sleep.
