The fact that Li Xiaojin came into the living without neither Li Fengjin or Bai Renxiang was shocking.
Well it should not be shocking considering they were too involved in themselves and their feelings to be overly aware of their surroundings.
But thank goodness Li Fengjin's body concealed their acts. Or rather his acts.
"Mummy, can you cuddle with me?" Li Xiaojin asked in little cute voice.
He stood there in his cute cotton rabbit pjs and one of his favourite action toy figure in hand. He looked so cute that Bai Renxiang's desires a while ago faded.
"Why don't you join me and your daddy here? We will take you to bed when you fall asleep later," Bai Renxiang suggested.
"What? No!" Li Fengjin whispered to her.
Bai Renxiang shot him a quick glare when Li Xiaojin yawned. Her sweet smile returned immediately after.
"Can I?" Li Xiaojin asked.
He was a kid but he knows that his parents lived spending time together. But he needed cuddles to sleep now. Maybe he can be a bit selfish today. Right?
"Of course you can, my love."
"And till tomorrow? Can I stay in your room? I feel lonely sometimes even with Mr Gojo here?" Li Xiaojin held up the Gojo Satoru action figure.
"Aww! You should have said so sooner. Don't hesitate to come to us next time. I don't mind and your daddy won't too. Right, hubby?" She smiled at Li Fengjin. However that smile held a warning.
"Yeah, son. I don't mind at all," Li Fengjin smiled.
"Liar," Li Xiaojin mumbled but they both heard him.
Bai Renxiang laughed at both Li Xiaojin's words and how Li Fengjin's smile fell. It was hilarious.
"Tsk. Why you little bra–"
"Fengjin," Bai Renxiang called his name with a warning tone and gave him the look. "Don't call him that."
Li Fengjin could only sigh while Li Xiaojin giggled. He went to to meet them. Bai Renxiang carried and helped him to lay between them.
"Mummy."
"Yes, my love."
"When are you going to get preggies?" Li Xiaojin innocently asked.
"Well, I was about to make her get preggies but then you came for cuddles," Li Fengjin answered instead.
SMACK
Bai Renxiang hit his arm and shot him a glare. But then the next word she heard from Li Xiaojin made her jaw drop.
"Oh! Well, preggies can wait tomorrow. I want cuddles now."
Saying that Li Xiaojin hugged Bai Renxiang to himself, buring his face in her boobs. The latter chuckled and gently caressed his hair.
"Don't worry. Even if I get preggies, I will still cuddle with you, baby," She assured him.
"Or I can cuddle with you instead," Li Fengjin said.
The fact that he loved spending time with Bai Renxiang, that does not mean he will not make time for their son.
"Okay," Li Xiaojin yawned. "Mummy, please sing me a lullaby.
Sleep was already taking over him. A song with the sweet voice of Bai Renxiang would do.
"Alright." Bai Renxiang obliged and sang for him.
All the while gently patted his little back until as she sang, Li Fengjin's eyes were on her. How lucky he is to have married a woman as wonderful as she is.
~A few days later~
They all had returned from City S. Their everyday lives continued as normal.
Li Fengjin had just finished a meeting with his executive team when he recieved a call from Roger. He sighed inwardly.
He walked into his office as he recieved the call. He locked the door behind him.
"Speak," he ordered as he made his way to the floor to ceiling window in his office.
"Good morning, boss, you may want to come over here as soon as possible. We just found out something. And it is bad," Roger immediately said.
Li Fengjin's brows furrowed. "What's wrong? What have you found?" He questioned.
"Zhixin, did not just escape. He had help. Help from a mafia gang here in Coutry P. A very ruthless mafia gang."
Li Fengjin was quite shocked. "How the hell did he get external help?"
"It appears that it was not from outside but someone from inside the cell," Roger explained.
"Alright then. Prepare yourselves for something dangerous. If I want him, I need you all to get ready for the worst that may happen. I know Zhixin. He will not just go down without a fight," Li Fengjin said.
"I got it, boss. When are we expecting you? Mr Parker said to let him know so that he can concral your arrival. At least we have to make sure Zhixin does not get words of it," Roger inquired.
"You got help from Parker?" Li Fengjin asked instead of answering Roger's question.
"Yes, boss. Since this is his base, Mr Parker was the best option in finding out where Zhixin ran off to. Should I have not, boss? I am sorry if I acted out of line again," Roger quickly apologised.
"No. You did not act out of line. Parker is one of us. Since that is his base, it makes dealing with Zhixin a bit easier," Li Fengjin said.
"Alright, boss," Roger sighed inwardly.
"Tell Parker I will contact him personally on my arrival. Got it?"
"Yes, boss. I got it," Riger nodded even though Li Fengjin can't see him.
With that been said, Li Fengjin ended the call. He massaged his temples as he let out a loud sigh this time. His eyes had turned a darker shade of blue as he stared ahead.
Now he will have to leave behind everything to deal with that man, Zhixin. If he tends to stay longer, he might drag the danger to everyone of his family and friends.
Most especially his wife and their son. Their happy faces suddenly popped up in his mind. His fist clenched tight for a long time before he eased up.
"Damn it," he cursed and raked his hands through his neatly arranged jet black hair.
After hours of trying to cover a good amount of work, he picked up his phone from the side of his computer.
He fiddled with it for sometime before he placed it beside his ear. He was calling someone. The call rang twice before it got connected.
"Hello, boss. Good afternoon."
"Hmm. I have an important task for you Shang. You and the rest should carry it on with your lives. Got it?" Li Fengjin went straight to hitting the nail on the head.
Shang sensing the utmost seriouness from his boss, squared his shoulders like a soldier taking orders from his superior.
"Yes, boss. I got it. What is this task you have for us?" Shang asked.
"Protect my wife and son."
"We will boss. You can have my words on that."
"I trust I can," Li Fengjin said before ending th call.
Shang was the only right person he could think of that will do a great job in protecting Bai Renxiang and Li Xiaojin. If ever Zhixin was to make his move, his family will be safe.
He placed another call to another head of his special team force in charge of the Li family's protection. He had him protect his parents.
In perilious times, one needs to be well-prepared and safe.
Li Fengjin finished with his days work as fast as he could. He then called his wife, Bai Renxiang.
"Hey, hubby. Good afternoon," Bai Renxiang's cheerful voice got into his ears.
It that moment, he felt all his building up worry come crashing down. He went silent just replaying her words and voice in his head.
"Hello. Jin?" Bai Renxiamg called out when shw did not hear a reply.
She pulled the phone away from her ears and looked at the screen. Weird. The call was still on.
So why was he not saying anything?
"Hello-oh! Am I speaking with Li Fengjin, please?" Bai Renxiang spoke louder into the phone.
Li Fengjin finally came back to reality. He shook his head and let out a chuckle.
"Yes, my love. You are speaking with Li Fengjin," he answered.
Bai Renxiang sighed with a hand on her chest. "Phew. For a moment there, I thought something may have happened to you. Why did you not say anything?"
"I'm sorry. I was just lost in thoughts that's all."
"Oh, really? What were you thinking about?" She asked.
"About how you seem to ease my heart with just your lovely voice."
"Stop it. You are making me blush," Bai Renxiang said and bit her lips. Her cheeks had turned slight pink.
"Hahahaha," Li Fengjin laughed. "But I'm serious. You really male my heart feel better no matter the situation."
"You call me in the middle of work to say cheesy stuff. What am I going to do with you, Mr Li?" Bai Renxiang sighed as she lolled into the swivel chair.
"There are very many things you can so with me, Mrs Li. So many."
