The impatient salesperson was shocked when she saw the money before her eyes. At the same time, others had begun to notice their presence.

“I’m buying. Can I have it?” Xia Ruoxin was calm, and it showed in her voice. It put the biased salesperson to shame.

She needed not had to show her payment here, but Xia Ruoxin’s actions were equivalent to a slap on the salesperson’s face.

Who could say that this woman could not be here to buy anything?

The salesperson reached out in embarrassment and retrieved the doll from behind. Then, she put it in Xia Ruoxin’s hands.

Xia Ruoxin accepted the doll and finally smiled. It wasn’t a big or beautiful smile rather, it was more from satisfaction. It made others sympathetic and yet, at the same time, feel blessed.

She bent down once more and put the doll into her daughter’s arms.

“Mommy is buying for Rainy. Do you like it?”

Rainy held the doll tightly in her arms as though it was the most precious thing she had. She smiled shyly at Xia Ruoxin and nodded her head.

“Yes, Mommy.”

Everyone was captivated by the child’s exceptional beautiful features. She was well-behaved and adorable with exquisite eyes and brows.

Xia Ruoxin carried her daughter, walked over to the counter, and paid for the doll.

From the beginning until she paid, everyone’s eyes were on them. They might have been poor, but her selfless love for her daughter put some to shame.

She was poor, and yet she was willing to buy such an expensive doll for her daughter. She could forgo buying things for herself in order to give everything to the child in her arms.

“Thank you, Auntie.” A sweet and soft voice came from the small mouth. It made one feel compelled to kiss the extremely beautiful child.

Xia Ruoxin rubbed her daughter’s head, and the mother and daughter looked at each other in the eye. They revealed a smile which was beautiful and a mirror image of each other.

“Very good, Rainy. One must be well-mannered. Others may disrespect us, but we must treat them with respect. This way, we are respecting ourselves, too.”

Xia Ruoxin carried her daughter and left. Rainy was holding onto the doll tightly in her arms and was staring at the salesperson who had been rude to them. Her unblinking eyes were so full of innocence that it shamed the salesperson.

“Mommy, I won’t be that auntie in the future. She is not pretty.” Her sweet voice sounded again, purposeful but unintentionally.

For a child this young, she had expressed her feelings directly without cutting corners. She knew her likes and dislikes.

Including a person.

Xia Ruoxin touched her daughter’s small face. She did not know if her child had meant what she said because she had always had a weird temperament. Rainy looked up, gave her a very sweet smile, and went back to playing with her doll. However, no one noticed the moment she lowered her head, there was no smile on her beautiful face.

She hated that auntie, really hated her.

Xia Ruoxin thought she might have been wrong as she rubbed her daughter’s head and held her closer. As long as her daughter was happy, she did not care; and she was willing to go through any hardships.
