CHAPTER 379
"I see. My mother told me the same thing too," Li Fengjin admitted.
"We have the best mum in the whole world. But mine is the number one best and grandma Li can be the second or the third," Bai Xiaojin showed two fingers on his right and three on his left.
"Oh, yeah? Why did you say so?"
"Because I still have my grandma Jiang. I love her very much. So I think she is the second best because she took care of my mummy very well. Then, grandma Li will fall in the third place," Bai Xiaojin explained.
The customers seated close to their table could not help but feel drawn by the cuteness of Bai Xiaojin. He was so sweet and fun to listen to.
"Hmm. That is true," Li Fengjin had to agree with the child's point.
It was only natural that Bai Renxiang and Jiang Meilin would be placed first and second. After all, they were the two he had known in his three years of existence. He could not blame him.
Li Fengjin was even happy that the kid likes him and his mother. He was not like some children that would be angry that he was not there with them for a long time.
Bai Xiaojin was very sensible for his age. It made Li Fengjin relieved and proud at the same time.
"So... What do you like and not like about me?" Li Fengjin drops the question that had been on his mind to ask.
Even since Bai Xiaojin had asked him to be his daddy. They had just met for the first time. Li Fengjin wanted to know what prompted him to ask such a question to someone he barely knew.
"Well, I like that we look so much alike. I like that you care and the fact that you can protect mummy in my absence. I like the fact that people fear you. Hehehe," Bai Xiaojin giggled and continued.
"Also, I like your height, built and your... Swag. Yeah, that is the word," Bai Xiaojin nodded convince.
Li Fengjin's brows shut up in amusement. At times he wondered where Bai Xiaojin learned to say most of the things he knew now.
"And last but not least," he drew Li Fengjin's attention. "I like you because you love me and mummy so so much."
"I happy to know all these. What about what you do not like?" Li Fengjin adjusted in his seat in preparation for what Bai Xiaojin's answer would be.
"That... Well, there is only one thing I do not like," Bai Xiaojin's face dropped.
His cheerful and smiling cute face was no more. There was only sadness and longing in them. Li Fengjin's heart sank on seeing this.
"I do not like how long it took. I did not like how you took so long to come to me and mummy," Bai Xiaojin said.
"I'm sorry about that. To be honest I did try to find your mother even before you were born. But it was very hard. You remember what I said that day when we told everyone about our engagement?"
"Yes. That it was like mummy disappeared," Bai Xiaojin replied.
"Yeah. But I found you guys finally and here we are. Although I was scared that Renxiang would think bad of me. But we are together now, right? I can make up for lost time which I am already doing," Li Fengjin promised.
"I know. That is why I still love you, daddy. You are the best," Bai Xiaojin smiled showing off his dimples and small arranged white teeth.
Li Fengjin returned the smile. He took the napkin and wiped the stain of ice cream on the side of Bai Xiaojin's lips. Just then, Bai Renxiang stepped into the parlour.
It was not hard to find them as Li Fengjin told her they were on the second floor of the big ice cream parlour. Also, with how handsome and cute they both are she could never have a problem identifying them in the crowd.
"Hi, my loves," she said as she sat on the fee chair beside Bai Xiaojin.
"Mummy," Bai Xiaojin hugged her.
"Hehehe. Did you miss me, baby?" She asked as she returned his hug and kissed his head.
"I always miss you."
"Me too. Honey," Bai Renxiang leaned toward Li Fengjin and pecked his lips quickly.
"You came in time to join us," Li Fengjin said.
"I sure did. Oh! I am so exhausted," Bai Renxiang said with a tired sigh.
"Then, sit back and relax. I and daddy will feed you," Bai Xiaojin offered.
"Yes, we will," Li Fengjin agreed.
"Oh, how sweet of you both. I put myself in your care then," Bai Renxiang smiled in excitement.
"Mummy, open up for the ice cream train," Bai Xiaojin playfully brought his spoon of ice cream close to her lips.
"Opening up," Bai Renxiang opened her lips and in went the ice cream train.
? Li Fengjin chuckled before scooping another into his spoon. He waited for Bai Renxiang to be done before he brought his closer.
"My love, say aahh," he instructed.
"Aahh...hmm. Oh! This is so good. More please," Bai Renxiang licked her lips and waited for them to deed her more for the big bowl.
The process continued and so was the questions and answers.
"Daddy, how did you and mummy meet?" Bai Xiaojin asked with curiosity.
Li Fengjin looked at Bai Renxiang with a tender loving gaze. She did the same and could not help but blush slightly.
"I remember that day vividly like it was only yesterday," he started.
"First of all, I and your other uncles, Ye Chaoxiang and Yang Chen went to this restaurant one weekend. It was Iris' Food Plug. I met your mother there," Li Fengjin's eyes did not leave Bai Renxiang's face for one second as he spoke.
"She was the waitress that attended to us in place of her colleague who was out due to an emergency. When I saw her, I was starstruck and tongue-tied."
