CHAPTER 210
While Bai Renxiang and Li Fengjin were engrossed in their work, Bai Xiaojin was getting tired of waiting for his mother to come out of the building she went into with that tall businessman. He had even started complaining and asking the driver so many questions.
"Uncle Jun, when is my mummy going to come back?" Bai Xiaojin asked as he gazed out the car window, staring intently and hopefully at the entrance of the hotel.
"Your mummy said she would try to hurry her work. So why not wait for a little more? Who knows she might be rounding off already," the driver said. After five minutes, Bai Xiaojin turned to the driver and asked again.
"Uncle Jun why is my mummy not coming out of that big and tall building yet? I thought you said she is rounding off? How long does it take to do so?" He puffed his cheeks as he stared angrily at the poor driver.
Driver Jun was already sweating. He could feel the sweat drop slide down his spine. This little master has a very scary presence right now. He might not even be aware of it but he, being the victim was very much aware.
"I said 'might', little master Bai Xiaojin. Your mother MIGHT be rounding off," the driver said while emphasizing the words might, so that Bai Xiaojin would get his point.
Bai Xiaojin sighed loudly and continued staring at the hotel's entrance watching as different people walked in and out of the building. He kept on guessing that the next would be his mother but all his guesses turned out to be wrong.
The next person that always came out after the previous was never his mother but someone else. After patiently waiting for another ten minutes, he moved closer to the driver's seat and leaned his body forward so that he could see driver Jun's face.
"Uncle Jun, are you playing tricks on me? You said might, but my mummy is not even showing her break light outside at all. What is she doing inside?" He asked frustratingly.
"Ah! Little master Bai Xiaojin, I do not know what your mother is doing inside. I am as clueless as you are."
'Young miss, please come quickly. The little master wants to bite my ears off my head,' he said in his head.
"Wuuuu!! Did mummy plan with you to abandon me?" Bai Xiaojin wailed.
"What? Definitely not little master. The young miss will never even think of doing such a thing as abandoning you. Please do away with such bad thoughts," driver Jun pleaded.
"Then why is she not coming back. Wuuu wuuu. Has my mummy been taken by bad people?" Bai Xiaojin dropped another question that almost made driver Jun get a heart attack. He wondered where his little master got such bad thoughts from.
"Never. The young miss can never be taken by bad people. At least not on my watch," he assured.
"That is exactly what is happening. They might have already taken my mummy and you were not watching her. My mummy is in trouble. Wuuuu!" Bai Xiaojin repeatedly hit the driver with his small hands as he cried.
Poor driver Jun. He could only pray to the heavens and his young miss to quickly end her work and come back as soon as possible. His ears would soon explode from the loud screaming and wailing of the kid currently hitting and pinching him.
Just as he was lost in his wishes and prayers, a piercing and stinging pain caused all his hair to stand and his nerve to be on the verge of total wreckage. Bai Xiaojin was biting him.
"Aaahhh!!! Little master Bai Xiaojin, please stop biting. It is very painful. Aaahhh!!!" Driver Jun begged and begged before Bai Xiaojin finally pulled away. His eyes were already rimmed red from his crying. The driver felt pity for the little boy. But thinking back to how painful his bites were just a moment ago, his pity began to wash off gradually.
He was not sure of what to think of kid anymore. Just then his eyes spotted an ice cream truck at the other side of the road. Driver Jun's eyes sparkled as an idea popped into his head. From what he knows, this little master of his loved ice creams. Maybe he could use that to ease his worrying heart and pacify his tears before his mother arrives.
"Little master Bai Xiaojin, how about you let me go and get an ice cream cone for you, huh? You can eat that before your mummy comes back from work," he said. Bai Xiaojin blinked. Then his brows furrowed in anger.
"How am I supposed to eat an ice cream cone when my mummy will not come back because she has been kidnapped?" Bai Xiaojin resumed hitting the driver.
"Do not worry little master Bai Xiaojin. Your mother is not kidnapped. I promise you that, okay?"
After he said that, Bai Xiaojin's stopped hitting him and became quiet as he ponders on the driver's words. This little act of his made driver Jun sighs silently. At least his crying and beating had stopped.
"You promise," Bai Xiaojin said with cute eyes.
"Hmm. I promise. Now, why don't you wait here, in the car, while I get you your favourite ice cream from that ice cream truck over there?" He pointed to the truck. "I promise to be back before you know it," he added.
"How do I know that you are not lying?" Bai Xiaojin asked to be sure.
"You can watch me as I go. If I take time, just open the door a little and shout my name. I will leave the door opened so that you can do that."
"Okay fine."
The driver sighed in relief and left the car with his wallet. Just as he banged the door and walked away, Bai Xiaojin looked over to the entrance of the hotel and an idea flashed through his head. He checked where the driver had gotten to and when he saw him cross the road, Bai Xiaojin quickly opened the door and jumped out of the car. Without hesitating even for the slightest bit, he bolted into the hotel.
