CHAPTER 494

"Mummy don't go."

Bai Renxiang was confused but she still assured him with comforting words. "Mummy, will not go anywhere. I'm here and I will never leave you, okay?"

"Mummy... Xiaojin will be a good boy. So please don't go away... Wuu."

It was as if all words that she said never reached Li Xiaojin's ears. He shook his head and his tears still poured out.

Bai Renxiang's heart clenched tightly at such a sight. She exchanged glances with everyone and saw the worry on their faces.

"Baby, did you have a bad dream? Is that why you are crying?" She asked.

Li Xiaojin nodded and sniffled. "Bad people... they took m-mummy away... Daddy was not there," he briefly told her of his bad dream while having hiccups in between.

"J-Jin," Bai Renxiang's teary eyes met with Li Fengjin's dark ones.

She could swear that she saw a blood thirsty glint flashed through his eyes. But it was gone as soon as she blinked.

"I think it is best if you let Xiaojin stay with you till it is bright outside. He would need to sleep more as it is too early," Yang Chen spoke.

"There is no way I am even letting him go back to sleep alone," Bai Renxiang said.

"Sigh... I will go and make him a cup of warm milk. It should help," Li Fengjin offered.

"Please make two cups of it. Lee Ai needs to go back to bed too," Bai Renxiang quickly added before he was out if the room.

"I'm sorry for the disturbance. I will take it from here, you guys can catch some sleep too," she apologised.

"Don't sweat it. Xiaojin is also everyone's child. Plus he needs all the love he can get now." They all agreed to Ning Xiaozhi's words.

"Just make sure he gets more sleep. If not the fear from the nightmare and crying will take a toll on him later. He might fall sick," Ye Chaoxiang advised.

"Hmm. Thanks guys. I will take him to bed now."

With that said, everyone dispersed to their rooms. Lee Ai also slept with Ye Chaoxiang and Ning Xiaozhi.

In the kitchen, Li Fengjin was still preparing the warm cups of milk when Wang Tingxiao walked in.

"What's the problem, Fengjin?"He asked upon noticing the depressing look on Li Fengjin's face.

"It is nothing you have to worry about. Go and get some sleep," Li Fengjin asked his expression.

Wang Tingxiao stubbornly shook his head before taking a sit on one of the kitchen stools.

"Just let it out. I can't catch any sleep anyways... So, I am all ears."

Li Fengjin sighed as he also joined Wang Tingxiao to sit down. He climbed through his already messy hair with his fingers and sighed again.

"Dude, you have already sighed twice in a matter of seconds. What is really bothering?" Wang Tingxiao pointed out.

"That is because I can't help but think about how much of a failure I am as a father and a husband," Li Fengjin said.

"What? Who in the world told you or made you feel like that?" Wang Tingxiao was shocked.

When he asked about what was wrong with Li Fengjin, he had not expected the guy to say that. He thought it would be omething concerning Bai Renxiang's kidnapping which might be the cause of Li Xiaojin's bad dream.

But hearing Li Fengjin just talk bout a completely different thing, he was confused. His forehead creases into three lines as he frowned.

"As fat as I know, you and Chaoxiang are the best fathers I have seen. As for being a husband, you can never be considered a failure. You are better than that, man."

"I doubt it. I can't even be there to protect my wife even in dreams. I can't even make Xiaojin feel secure," Li Fengjin leaned in the kitchen island and exhaled sharply.

"But–"

"Listen, Tingxiao. A child does not get nightmares out of nowhere. Especially a child of Xiaojin's age. It is triggered by past experiences."

"Yes but you still got there on time, Fengjin. You saved Renxiang from having a traumatic experience. It's just a dream. And dreams are not something that we can manipulate. The fact that you were not present in the dream does not mean that you are a failure. Don't bear yourself up like that. It will hurt them both," Wang Tingxiao said.

"What makes you think they will be hurt?" Li Fengjin asked.

"I know because Lisa gets mad at me for feeling the way you are now. You are a man, so act like one and take responsibility for everything you do," he quoted.

"Those were her words. And with the way Renxiang admires you, I bet she would feel worse seeing you like this. Don't you think she will start blaming herself?"

"It is not her fault. She shouldn't blame herself," Li Fengjin quickly said.

"And neither should you. No one is at fault for what happened that day," Wang Tingxiao said before placing his hand on Li Fengjin's shoulder. "You're supposed to be their support, Fengjin... Not their insecure looser."

After remaining silent for a while, Li Fengjin inhaled and exhaled like he had been refilled with a life force. He sat up straight and thanked Wang Tingxiao.

"Anytime, bro. I've got you the same way you have been doing for me."

"No. I owe you a lot, Tingxiao. A simple thank you can never be enough. Let's discuss this better tomorrow. I've got a wife and son to the care of now," Li Fengjin stood up and took with him the cups of milk.

"Alright."

Wang Tingxiao remained in the kitchen even after Li Fengjin left. He was just lost in his own thoughts. But he snapped back when Lisa called for him.

"Tingxiao, where are you?"

"In the kitchen," he yelled back.

"What are you doing there? I can't sleep without you. Get back here."
