Chapter 92 Take Over
Seeing his food get thrown away, itt angered Bai Xiaojin that he stood up hit Xie Chao but Su Quan pushed him hard causing him to hit his back on the tree trunk.
"Do not push too gentle, Quan. We want him to cry to his mummy. Waah waah! Mummy's b*st*rd. Hahaha," Long Xin mimicked a crying voice as he twisted his balled hands in front of his eyes. The act made Su Quan and Xie Chao to erupt in laughter. After making fun of Bai Xiaojin, they walked away, living Bai Xiaojin in his sorry and hungry state.
Bai Xiaojin winced in pain when he wanted to sit up. He shoulders shook as he sobbed. What is wrong in wanting to be left alone? How does him having no father anybody's business?
Anyway, there is no use crying over spilt milk. He wiped his tears with the back of his palm, stood up and walked towards the place were his lunch box was thrown to. He picked it up, and threw the content that was left on the box.
"Such a loose tongue he has. One day I will make sure to punch that stupid smile off his stupid face," Bai Xiaojin said referring to Su Quan.
"There is no way I am going to cry to mummy or tell anyone about this. She would just get more stressed than she already is," he reasoned.

"Ugh! Finally it is time for lunch," Bei Suzy said as she stretched her limbs that were almost turning numb from being in one location for a very long time.
Work has been stressful since their big boss arrived. They were so many things to do and so many projects to finish. It was all tiring even if it is for the development of the company.
"Hey Renxiang. Are you ready to go for lunch?" Wen Shaoming asked. The three of them always ate together at the company's cafeteria.
"Uh yeah. Just give me a minute to-"
RING! RING!
The sound of Bai Renxiang's phone stopped her from completing her sentence. Fishing the phone out of her purse, she smiled when she saw the caller. It was rare for him to call but now that he did she was glad.
"You guys should go on. I will meet you at the cafeteria. I just need to take this," she said.
"Aww. My little girl has started receiving love calls. Care to tell us who the lucky guy is?" Bei Suzy asked.
"Ohh. Of course I will. But only if you will encourage me to date my grandpa," Bai Renxiang said in a sarcastic manner. She rolled her eyes and picked the call.
"Oh, so it is your grandpa that is calling. I am sorry carry on then," Bei Suzy apologized sheepishly.
"Hello gramps. How are you?" She said immediately she was sure the call got connected.
"Hello my little girl. I am fine thank you for asking. How is work going?" Old man Jiang's voice rang out from the other end of the line.
"Work is fine grandpa. Why did you call? I hope all is well," Bai Renxiang asked with concern and a little bit of fear. She wished not to hear any bad news especially, about his health.
Bei Suzy made hand gestures to Bai Renxiang, telling her that herself and Wen Shaoming will be heading out to the cafeteria first and Bai Renxiang agreed.
"No no, my dear. There is nothing wrong. I was just wondering if we could talk for a while," he answered.
"I am sorry gramps. I can't leave the company right now. It will take so much time for me to get to you and back before lunch break is over. How about on Sunday, like always," Bai Renxiang apologized.
"Oh no my dear. You have gotten grandpa wrong. I did not mean you should leave the company to come to the mansion. Hahaha," he laughed at his quick she was to interpret things, just like her mother.
Bai Renxiang cleared her throat in embarrassment. But then, she wonders what he meant.
"I mean, can you come over to the restaurant just four buildings away from the place you work? I am sure it is not against the rules of Emperor's Enterprise," old man Jiang explained further.
"Oh, I understand now. I can meet you. It is not against any rules but I have to be back here before the break is over," Bai Renxiang said. She stood and held her phone with her left shoulder to her left ear as she arranged the things on her desk.
She took her purse and returned the phone back to her right hand and proceeded out of the department.
"Yes gramps. I will be there in five minutes... Alright, see you soon..... Bye," the call ended. Bai Renxiang made her way to the cafeteria to tell her friends of her last minute meeting with her grandfather.
"I am sorry guys. But I guess I will be skipping our....together lunch. I have to meet up with my grandpa," Bai Renxiang informed them.
"Oh okay. But make sure you get back before lunch time is over," Wen Shaoming cautioned her.
Bai Renxiang left after that. Since the restaurant was not far according to old man Jiang, she decided to walk there. It was not long before she got to the restaurant.
She pushed the glass door open and walked in. Bai Renxiang was greeted with a large space containing chairs and tables. The place was brimming with people. It was jam-packed. How on earth is she supposed to o find that old man amongst so many people.
While she was looking around, trying to get her grandfather with her eyes, a waiter approached her.
"Good afternoon. Are you Ms. Bai?" The waiter asked politely. Bai Renxiang nodded her head in confirmation.
"Yes, I am," she spoke out.
"Mr. Jiang is waiting for you upstairs. This way please," the waiter guided her to an elevator and pressed the button for the second floor.
