PLAYBOY CEO HAS A BABY

CHAPTER 424

Ning Xiaozhi's words had rendered Bai Renxiang speechless. She did not think that this situation would make her friend think that far.

"Xiaozhi, how can you say that? No. Nothing like that would happen. Lee Ai is a sweet child," Bai Renxiang said.

"Well, how can I not think that? The only she has said to me is 'hello' and that was probably because Chaoxiang made her too. The girl would not say a word to me or even let me hug her or touch and kiss her chubby cheek," Ning Xiaozhi pouted.

"Hehehe. Xiaozhi, do you want her to talk to you or give you permission to touch and kiss her cheek?"

"Maybe... Both," Ning Xiaozhi dragged.

"Pfft... Hahaha, " the both of them burst into laughter.

"Oh my God Xiaozhi. You are going to kill me someday," Bak Renxiang held her stomach as she laughed.

"What? I am being honest. I really want to check if her cheeks are as soft and squishy as Xiaojin's."

"You are unbelievable."

"I guess I am."

"Well, hello guys," Yi Changying joined them.

"Hi, Ying."

"What's up? Why is Xiaozhi looking down?"

"Well, our Xiaozhi here thinks Lee Ai does not like her," Bai Renxiang represented the case.

Yi Changying looked at Ning Xiaozhi in disbelief. "What? That's impossible. There is no way Lee Ai does not like you. I mean, you are going to be her mother and you are likeable and her dad loves you. There is obviously nothing to not like about you."

"Tell her, Ying," Bai Renxiang slammed her palm on the counter.

"She likes you," Yi Changying confirmed.

"Really?" Ning Xiaozhi turned to look at both of them for assurance.

"Really," they answered together.

~In the living room~

"So how's Brother Kai doing in his relationship with Yumi?" Yang Chen asked.

"He is doing great. Yumi could not stop telling me how amazing and loving and caring and romantic he is," Ye Chaoxiang sighed. "I had an ear full when I was at home."

"So Brother Kai is a lover boy now? I am so going to tease him when I get the chance," Li Fengjin smiled mischievously.

"Dude, you could have seen him blush at Yumi's antics sometimes. Like when she pecks him on his cheek or calls him Kai, his ears would turn red."

Li Fengjin: "What?"

Yang Chen: "Did you get a picture?"

"Unfortunately, no. I did not get a picture. But I am sure you two would be witnessing that soon."

While they were chatting, Li Fengjin and the rest notice that Bai Xiaojin and Lee Ai were gradually getting along. It put a smile across their faces.

"Sigh... I wish Lee Ai would talk to Xiaozhi too," Ye Chaoxiang sighed.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Li Fengjin asked.

"Well, the thing is, Lee Ai seems too shy or nervous around Xiaozhi," he answered.

"I can't help but feel that the has developed a daddy syndrome over the years. What if she does not want to share her daddy with Ning Xiaozhi?" Yang Chen guessed.

"A daddy syndrome? Come on Chen," Li Fengjin smacked his shoulder.

"What? It can be the case you know," Yang Chen shrugged.

"I don't want that to be the case. I love them both," Ye Chaoxiang shook his head.

"Relax, Chaoxiang. Why don't we just ask her to confirm it? The earlier the better," Li Fengjin suggested.

"Hmm... Lee Ai. Come here for a second."

"Yes, daddy," Lee Ai did obey.

"Ahem! Sweetheart, do you not like my girlfriend, Xiaozhi?" Ye Chaoxiang asked.

Lee Ai averted her gaze from his and stared at her feet covered in purple socks. Her silence raised a certain worry in his mind.

'What of she said she does not like Ning Xiaozhi? I would not be able to choose between both of them. I really love Xiaozhi and Lee Ai. Oh no! Please say you like her. Please say you like her,' He Chaoxiang prayed in his mind.

"I don't... I don't hate her," Lee Ai answered.

"Really?"

"Hmm," she nodded.

"Then why not talk to her? She will probably feel bad if you keep ignoring her. You were excited when we were on the plane. What went wrong?"

"Well... Do you think she will like me for real?" Lee Ai questioned back.

"Why not? She loves you and it is for real," he said.

"Really? I can play with her? Do you think she will want to be my mummy? She won't leave you because of me right?"

The guys were surprised that this seemed to be why she had not been jovial with Ning Xiaozhi. It was not because of a daddy syndrome but because she was scared of Ning Xiaozhi not wanting to be. Her mother and leave Ye Chaoxiang.

How sweet and adorable.

"Do you want her to be your mother?" Ye Chaoxiang asked expectedly.

"Yes."

"Then, go and tell her that now," Li Fengjin sudden said.

"Right now?" Yang Chen asked.

"Yes. It would make her ecstatic. But you will have to apologise for ignoring her first," Ye Chaoxiang agreed with the idea.

After a little consideration, Lee Ai ran to the kitchen where Ning Xiaozhi and the others were. When she got there, the three ladies were busy cooking and chatting away.

Lee Ai gathered enough courage and went straight to Ning Xiaozhi and hugged her tightly.

"Oh my!" Ning Xiaozhi gasped aloud in fear, alerting Bai Renxiang and Yi Changying.

"Lee... Lee Ai?" She called.

"I'm sorry. I really like you so don't be mad at me for not talking to you earlier, okay? I sacred. But I'm not anymore and I won't do it again, I promise. I'm sorry," Lee Ai apologised.

"Oh, sweetheart," Ning Xiaozhi quickly wiped her hands with the naming Yi Changying passed to her before she carried Lee Ai in her arms.

"What were you scared of?" She asked.

"That you won't like her for real and you won't want to be her mother and leave me," Ye Chaoxiang answered.

He had followed Lee Ai here to see how things goes. He sighed in relief when Lee Ai apologised and Ning Xiaozhi carried her. Meanwhile, Bai Renxiang and Yi Changying excused themselves to give the three their privacy.

"Chaoxiang what do you mean?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.

"I want you to be... my mummy and not leave my dad. Will you?" Lee Ai asked.

With the way her eyes were round and watery with that cute pout, how could Ning Xiaozhi not want to be the mother of such a cute little girl. "Of course, I will. I love you and your daddy to the moon and back."

"Really?"

"Really, sweetheart. Thank you," Ning Xiaozhi rubbed her back.

The rest of the day became very pleasant for everyone. Lee Ai behaved freely with Ning Xiaozhi and played a lot with Bai Xiaojin. She even claimed to be his elder sister.

Bai Xiaojin was happy about that too. He even made a mental note to boast about it to Gu Mingzhe whenever they meet. He could not get a little sister now, but an elder sister would suffice till he for one.

They stayed till it was evening before everyone left. By the time they got home, Mr and Mrs Li were watching Tv. Ban Xiaojin used that opportunity that they were still awake to tell them both him jack g an elder sister now.

His attitude made Li Fengjin shake his head. Although his son was smarter than his age, he was still a child. And this was one thing and get many that Fengjin loved about the boy.

The next few weeks starting from today was going to be all about their wedding. As for today, it was scheduled for Bai Renxiang's pressing dresses to be picked out. Mrs Li was so excited just as Jiang Meilin was.

Ning Xiaozhi and Yi Changying tagged along. As for Bei Suzy, she could not tag along because of work. Since they had decided to wear dresses of the same style for the wedding ceremony, they all decided to pick and show her to also know her opinion. So while the women were all going crazy at the shopping mall, picking dresses here and there, Bai Ming was sweating her ass off.

She had not been able to contact Investigator Fang for quite a time now. She was getting worried as she needed h to help her plan another scheme against Bai Renxiang.

"Argh! Why is that man not searchable nowadays? I need him," Bai Ming was vexed.

She was getting itchy because of what her mother had told her and based on her confirmation. Bai Renxiang had hit it big because of some inheritance from her maternal grandfather.

Bai Ming's head had been filled with the thoughts of her stepsister coming to take Bai Jewelries as well. So she wanted to try out another kidnapping but it seems Investigator Fang has cut her off.

"I need to do something. Think, Bai Ming Think," she used her hands to comb through her hair.

After a little brain-tasking, an idea popped up in her brain. "Aha. I got it. I should convince grandma to give me her shares of the company. That way, I can be at an advantage against Bai Renxiang when talking about who's share is bigger," she murmured.

"Yes, why have I not thought about it since. I should call her," she picked up her phone and called her grandmother, Bai Guiren's mother.

"After all she favours me more than that b*tch."
