CHAPTER 278
On the day of Bai Renxiang's discharge, Li Fengjin had told her mother not to stress herself in going to pick up Bai Renxiang.
He decided that as a responsible and loving boyfriend, he would take her home instead. Jiang Meilin happily agreed.
"Hah! The air is so fresh and free of drugs or whatever chemical that hospital smells like," Bai Renxiang said as soon as she stepped outside the hospital.
"Hmm. And I am happy that I am going to my girlfriend's house," Li Fengjin said with a cheeky smile.
"You are behaving like a teenager now. I can't believe it," Bai Renxiang shook her head as they walked to Li Fengjin's car.
"I can't help it. I am finally in a relationship with the woman I love and now I am going to her house. It is like I am meeting my future in-laws."
A smile bloomed on Bai Renxiang's face.
'He just said future in-laws. He wants to have a future with me. He wants to be with me much longer. He wants our relationship to last. I want that too,' she said in her head.
"Good morning, boss. Good morning, lady boss," Wang Tingxiao greeted them when they got to the car.
"Good morning, assistant Wang. How do you do?" Bai Renxiang asked cheerfully.
"I am doing great as always," he replied with a smile of his own seeing his lady boss happy as well as his boss.

"Yes, boss. All packaged and wrapped nicely," Wang Tingxiao answered.
"Good then."
"What are you guys talking about?" Bai Renxiang asked curiously.
"I prepared a list of what I would give you mother when we meet at your house. I was just making sure that Wang Tingxiao got everything. Get in," Li Fengjin said before opening the door for his beloved.
"Thank you, sweetheart."
On getting to Bai Renxiang's place, everyone was at home. Her mother, Shin, Shane and Bai Xiaojin. They were all happy to see her well and out of the hospital.
"Sis! I missed you so much. Thank God you are okay," Shane said.
"I missed you too Shane. I missed you all."
"Mummy!" Bai Xiaojin rushed to hug her like he does whenever she returns from work.
"Hey there, my love," she scooped him into her embrace. "How have you been?" She asked.
"Terrible. You were not home to cuddle with me. I had to stay in the bed alone and hug your pillow to sleep," he did and pouted.
"What? Why did you stay alone? You should have slept in your grandma's room," she said with a slight frown.
"Sigh. That was exactly what I told him. But your son is as stubborn as you were when you were his age," Jiang Meilin reported.
"Sigh. I see. Anyway, I am here now. I will give you all the cuddles we have missed and lots more, okay my love?"
"Okay. Uncle Fengjin!" Bai Xiaojin came down from Bai Renxiang's embrace and went to hug Li Fengjin.
"Hey, big man," Li Fengjin carried him.
"I missed you too. Thank you for taking care of mummy for me. I will surely return the favour when I grow up like you," Bai Xiaojin said.
"Then, I will keep your words in mind. Good morning to everyone," he greeted.
"Ah! Mr Li, welcome to our home," Jiang Meilin said.
"Please, do not call me Mr Li. My father is the one that should be called that and I am not yet married. Just call me by my name, Li Fengjin," be politely corrected her.
"If you say so then. Such a sensible and humble young man."
"Ah! Before I forget, I brought a little gift for you, ma'am," Li Fengjin said and passed the gift basket to Jiang Meilin.
"Aww! You should not have gone true all the trouble in preparing these," Jiang Meilin said as she received the gift basket.
"I dare not visit the home of my girlfriend and her mother without a gift. I would be shaming my mother's good training if I came empty-handed," Li Fengjin said.
"Very well, then. Your mother did well in raising such a fine gentleman. Thank you for the gift. Have a seat while I drop this inside and bring a little refreshment for you," Jiang Meilin said before leaving.
Li Fengjin was about to seat down when Bai Renxiang held his hands.
"You are too quick to relax. Are you not curious about my house? You were so expectant when we were in the car," Bai Renxiang said.

"I refuse. Come on. It will be quick and I need someone to help me put my clothes back. Xiaojjn can't do it because he is a kid. Shin or Shane can't either. So, follow me," Bai Renxiang said.
"Sigh. Alright then," he agreed.
"We will be back shortly. Please excuse us," Bai Renxiang said to them before leading Li Fengjin into the house.
A few minutes after they left, Jiang Meilin came back with coffees and cookies for everyone.
"Where are they?" She asked as she did not see the couple.
"Sis is giving her boyfriend a tour of the house," Shane answered and picked a mug of coffee for himself.
"Hmm, that is good," Jiang Meilin nodded.
Ding!! Dong!!."
"Who is it?" Jiang Meilin asked while looking toward the entrance of the house.
"Meilin. It is me Mengsha," an elderly lady's voice was heard from the other side of the door.
"Oh, Yi Mengsha. I am coming."
Jiang Meilin rushed to the door to let Mrs Yi in. They hugged and exchanged greetings before they went in along with Yi Minsheng.
"Greetings everyone. Where is my beautiful Renxiang?"
"She inside with her boyfriend."
