CHAPTER 308
"You are happy with Li Fengjin. It is evident. So, you better good on to that happiness and hold on to your man. Because if you do not, there are millions of people that are ready to steal those from you. Especially your man," Ning Xiaozhi said.
"I pray that does not happen," Bai Renxiang said.
"Do not just pray girl, work towards it."
"Yeah. I will. Xiaojin will be very sad if my relationship with Jin turns sour."
"There you go again with thinking for family," Ning Xiaozhi let out an exasperated sigh.
"Relax. Xiaojin is not just family. He is from inside me. Also, at the hospital, he told me that he really likes Jin," Bai Renxiang said.
"Xiaojin told you that?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.
"Yes, he did."
"Rennie."
"Hmm."

"His father?"
Bai Renxiang's breathing became stressed a little. She has never brought this topic up with anyone at all. She fears this chapter of her life. Just hearing someone ask her this for the first time is really hard.
"Yes, his father. That man you had a nightstand with three years ago."
"No, I have not. I do not think I can bear the truth."
"And why not? You have the resources to do so. Xiaojin has shown many signs of wanting a father. Am I wrong?"
"No."
"Then why not search for-"
"I do not want to. I already have a man I love. We already have Li Fenjin in our lives. Besides, if that man really cared he would have searched for me. I do not even want him to do that. What if he takes Xiaojin away from me?" Bai Renxiang said.
"That would never happen. No one can take your son away from you. Not while your grandfather is still breathing. Not while Li Fengjin is with you. You also have me and the rest of us. So chill," Ning Xiaozhi assured her.
"Thank you, Xiaozhi," Bai Renxiang appreciated her.
"Hmm. Wait, there is one last thing that has been bugging me," Ning Xiaozhi quickly said.
"Yea, go on."
"Sigh. This has been on my mind for so long. It was what made me remember to ask about Xiaojin's father."
"Okay."
"Do you not think that Li Fengjin and your son have a very striking resemblance?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.
Bai Renxiang was speechless. She was confused. What was Ning Xiaozhi saying? Her mind could not quite place the words right.
"I have been thinking of it ever since I saw them together at the hospital and then the pictures of your outing with him. Their similarity is too much to ignore or not notice. You have thought of this too, right?"
Bai Renxiang was still silent. She has never thought of it. She has not even noticed it not to even talk of ignoring it.
"Bai Renxiang, do not tell me you have not even thought about it or even noticed their resemblance?" Ning Xiaozhi shouted through the phone.
Bai Renxiang felt goosebumps all over her skin. Ning Xiaozhi was going to scold her big time. She was really screwed now, wasn't she?
"BAI RENXIANG!"
"Aaahhh!!" Bai Renxiang screamed in shock.
She even fell out of her chair. Her mind was thinking of what to tell Ning Xiaozhi and suddenly the loud sound flew into her ears and electrocuted her brain cells to come back to their conversation.
"Eh, I... I well.."
"Stop stuttering you... How could you not have seen this all this while?" Ning Xiaozhi asked in disbelief.

"I am sorry. I- I had a lot on my... my mind lately," Bai Renxiang said.
"Oh! I get it. You were too lost in your boyfriend's eyes to even look around you. You were drowning in love, weren't you?"
"Yes, ah... I mean no. No. It is not like that. I did not just notice it. I did not think about it. If not, I would have observed," Bai Renxiang tried to explain herself.
"I can't believe it. What has Li Fengjin done to you? What has love done to my best friend? Oh my God," Ning Xiaozhi exclaimed.
She could not help but shake her head. There was a smile evident on her face. Her best friend was really in love. She could not believe it.
This is the perfect definition of love that makes someone foolish. Her best friend, Bai Renxiang was foolishly in love with the best guy ever. Ning Xiaozhi was overjoyed.
"Xiaozhi. Please do not be angry anymore. I am sorry," Bai Renxiang please with a soft voice.
Her lips were pouting and her eyes ear looked like that of a cute puppy. If Ning Xiaozhi was in her office, she would have fallen for her cuteness.
To Bai Renxiang's surprise, Ning Xiaozhi ended the call. She was stunned senseless. How could she end the call in the middle of her plea?
This is important. Just as Bai Renxiang was staring at her blank phone, it lit up again with a ring. It was still Ning Xiaozhi calling. But this time, it was a video call.
Bai Renxiang picked it up and resumed her cuteness. She placed the phone on her phone holder is that she could join her two hands together.
"Xiaozhi. Mummy. Bestie. Sis, please forgive your baby," she pleaded.
Ning Xiaozhi almost burst out laughing at the names Bai Renxiang called her. She almost fell for her best friend's cuteness. But she took in deep breaths and denied her face any expression apart from anger.
'Huh? My cuteness card is not working on her now. How can that be? Oh, no. Now I will get it,' Bai Renxiang gulped at her thought.
"Admit it. You were too in love with Li Fengjin to notice your son's resemblance to him," Ning Xiaozhi said.
"I admit. I was so carried away with Jin's love for me to notice. Am I forgiven?"
