BXBX NOVEL Chapter 167 Not Like You

CHAPTER 167
Bai Renxiang's face was already flushed from how Shane and her son were praising her actions at the school. She tried to change the topic on several occasions but it ended back in what happened at Bai Xiaojin's school.
Jiang Meilin and Shin were even making things worst. They asked questions and threw comments too. Bai Renxiang just focussed on her food and let them be. That was how they talked and talked before they changed the topic to something else.

Li Fengjin just stood on the balcony of his house with a glass of red wine in his right hands and the other hand was tucked in his pockets. He kept on thinking about today's activity, most especially the one at Bai Xiaojin's school. He sighed as the words of that little boy kept on replaying in his head.
"Mister... Will you be my daddy?"
He shook his head and took gulped almost the whole content of the wine in the glass. He puffed his cheeks and let it reduce back to normal as he let out the air he had gathered- like a deflated balloon.
After basking in the silence of the evening as the cool gentle breeze blew past him, he groaned in frustration. He had forgotten to smartly take a hair sample from the kid. How could he have forgotten such important stuff?
"God damn it Li Fengjin," he cursed in a low voice and finally downed the remaining content of the wine.
He sat down on one of the chairs surrounding the table at a corner in the balcony. Then he took his phone put his pocket and searched for her picture. Once he saw it, he took his time to admire the picture.
"She is a real beauty. No wonder that kid has such excellent features," he talked to himself. The sides of his lips curved upwards a little as he continued to examine Bai Renxiang's picture.
"Will you accept me into your life? Will you love me the same way I have already started loving you?" He asked.
"Hehehe. Li Fengjin, it is official. You have finally gone crazy," he chuckled at himself and did other things with his phone. Then he thought of calling his friends. He called Ye Chaoxiang first.

In Ye Chaoxiang's apartment, the dude was getting ready for his date tonight. He and Ning Xiaozhi had come to an the previous day that their first date as 'friends' will be the next day, which is today.
He was just coming out of the bathroom with a white towel wrapped loosely around his waist and another on his head with which he used to dry his hair when his phone rang out. Ye Chaoxiang walked to his bed where the phone was and picked it up. He sighed when he saw who was calling.
"Hello," he spoke with a boring and slightly annoyed voice once he was sure that the call got connected.
"Hey man. What is the matter? You sound grumpy," Li Fengjin could not help but asked. It was normal for Ye Chaoxiang to answer in a boring and indifferent tone but today was kind of...different. Like he was mad at him because he interrupted something important.
"Did I perhaps... interrupt anything you were doing?" Li Fengjin asked.
"Yes, you did god damn it," Ye Chaoxiang snapped at him.
"Gasp. Are you... Is there a woman in your apartment? Oh my God Ye Chaoxiang. I thought you were putting an end to your bad habits," he gasped as he sat up straight on his chair and leaned on the table.
"I have quit my bad habits. I have been celibate since I adopted Ye Lee Ai. Okay quit stalling and tell me why you called me. I am in a hurry here," Ye Chaoxiang said and put the call on speaker so that he could get ready for the night. He promised to pick Ning Xiaozhi up from her apartment by 8:00pm sharp and as punctual as he has always been, he can't afford to be late.
"Woah woah woah. Easy there grandpa grumps. Why are you so mean to me? What are you hurrying for? If you got a duty call from the hospital, you should just tell me nice and politely," Li Fengjin said.
"Fine. I am sorry for talking to you like that. Sigh. What do you want to talk about?" Ye Chaoxiang asked more calmly this time.
"Now that is more like it. I accept your apology. Well... I just called to... I am bored. I just needed someone to talk to, that is all," he said.
"I would have loved to stay on the line and chat but I can't," he admitted.
"Oh! Well what about meeting up at that restaurant we like?" Li Fengjin asked.
"That can't work either. I am actually going somewhere right now."
"Wooo!! Where are you going?" Li Fengjin asked in a teasing voice.
"I can't tell you that," Ye Chaoxiang refused straightforwardly. His voice deadpanned.
"Oh come on. You are such a kill joy and that is no form at all," Li Fengjin whinned..
"Hehehe. Well there is also no fun in telling a birthday boy what gift you would be giving him on his birthday, right?"
"Yeah whatever. That means we will see for breakfast."
"Yeah. You know what? I think you should talk to your sweetheart instead. She will be excited for the call," Ye Chaoxiang said and wore a light blue t-shirt over a black denim trouser and black snickers. They decided to keep the date casual since it was a 'friendly' date.
"I will do that. But I have to disturb Yang Chen first. I bet he may be playing games right now."
"I bet he is. Alright see you tomorrow. I got to go," Ye Chaoxiang said as he checked the time on his wristwatch.
"Alright. Uh Xiang!"
"Yeah."
"If you are going somewhere that has people that are not like you, wear something that is bright except white."
