CHAPTER 329
"What do you mean by that? I don't understand? You are supposed to be angry at me, right?" Li Fengjin asked.
"If toy had come earlier to find me then... then maybe Xiaojin would not have to cry so much and get bullied at school for not having a father. It was so hard for me to raise a child on my own," Bai Renxiang cried.
"If not for my mother, I wonder what would have happened to me and the baby back then. I even thought of getting an abortion.l when I found out that I was pregnant."
"You what? Why would that even cross your mind?"
"Don't shout like that. I was scared, okay. I did not even know the man that got me pregnant. How do you think I was feeling? But mum tips me not to and thank God I listened."
"Thank God you did not go through with a decision like that," Li Fengjin sighed in relief.
"At first I was scared to know who you were. I thought I slept with someone else's husband or you would be a fat man with a big stomach, bald head and an ugly face. Or even a man that is way older than me. But when I saw Xiaojin's good genes, I was relaxed a little."
"Then I got more scared when I thought of the possibility of you wanting to take Xiaojin away from me if you were to locate me."
"Ssh ssh. I would never do that. I will never take Xiaojin away from you, I promise you that," Li Fengjin assured her.
His arms wrapped tightly around her to give her the feeling of security. He wanted her to know that she was fine with him.
"I am sorry for my late arrival. I should have told you earlier. Will you forgive me?" He asked.
"I will think about it," Bai Renxiang answered and sniffed.
"How long will I have to wait?"
"I don't know. Maybe until everything sinks into my head. But I am not really mad at you because see down I am glad that I did not sleep with a fat, bald and old man. I am happy it was you."
"So, you have forgiven me, right?"
"Yes."
"Thank you. Just so you know... I love Renxiang. With all my heart and soul and body," he confessed.
"I love you too and thank you for everything."
After a while of crying and cuddling and thinking, Li Fengjin spoke up.
"If you will let me, I would love to start taking full responsibility for you and my son, Xiaojin."
"Already?"
Bai Renxiang pulled away from his embrace to look have a good look at him
She wanted to see if he was joking. But Li Fengjin was not. He had a serious and sincere look on his face.
"Yes. I think the three of us have done enough waiting over those last years," Li Fengjin said.
Bai Renxiang did not say anything. She remained silent as she looked away from him to hide her teary eyes. Li Fengjin sighed and pulled her into another hug while rubbing her back.
"I already promised not to take him away from you. I will only do that if you run away from me. And if you do, I will hunt you down, bring you and my son home and then I will pick you up in my house forever," his face had no hint of a smile when he said that.
"I just want to make up for all those years that I wasn't there for the both of you when you need me."
"Okay."
"Look at you. Your eyes are all puffy and your nose has turned red."
"Don't look at me now. I am ugly," she mumbled as she hide her face in his chest.
"You not ugly. I told you before that you look beautiful no matter what you do."
"But you said that my eyes are puffy and my nose is red."
"Oh, that? Hehehe. Silly girl. I meant to say that you look cute when you cry and not ugly. You are beautiful in whatever thing you were or look like. Even in your bed hair," Li Fengjin coaxed.
"You are just saying that to make me feel better," Bai Renxiang said.
"Well, it is the truth whether you like it or not. Besides, all I really want to do now is to make you feel better in spite of the pain you are going through. I wish I would be the one feeling the pain instead of you," he said.
"You just made me feel even better," Bai Renxiang lifted her head from his chest.
"Really?"
"Yes. Your warm cuddle and words are great medication."
"Oh, yeah? What about now?" Li Fengjin asked as he kisses her forehead.
"Yes," Bai Renxiang smiled.
"And now? What about this? And this?..."
He kept asking as he peppered light kisses all over her face from her forehead to her eyes, nose, cheeks, jaw and finally her lips.
Once they parted from the kiss, Bai Renxiang said, "I feel better now and it is all because of you."
"Of course you do. Now relax and let me take care of you."
"I want to watch a movie with you," Bai Renxiang suddenly requested.
"Now? Like here, at home?" He asked.
"Yes. I do not want to go out anymore and I am exhausted from all that we discussed," she said.
"Okay. But what kind of movie do you want to watch?" Li Fengjin lifted her off the couch and walked out of the garden.
"I'm not in the mood for comedy because I do not want to laugh. Maybe a romantic movie with a happy ending," Bai Renxiang thought out loud.
"Alright. A romantic movie it is. I will get some chocolates to go with it."
"I was just thinking of chocolates."
"Really? I'm one sweet, caring and thoughtful boyfriend, aren't I?" Li Fengjin said with a proud cheeky smile.
"You are."
