CHAPTER 280
"Oh, Mingsheng. How have you been?" Bai Renxiang asked?
'Not good. How can I be when you chose someone else over me?' He said in his head. But Yi Mingsheng put on a smiling face. He could not see himself saying those to her. It would ruin the atmosphere and make him foolish. Also, he knew he was no match for the tall guy quietly watching Bai Renxiang. What could he do?
"Same old, same old. I should even be the one asking. We heard you were sick and got admitted to the hospital. I'm sorry for not being able to come and see you," Yi Mingsheng said.
He managed to bottle up his feelings when he saw the guy that stepped into the living room. He knew that guy alright. The thing was that he was wondering how Bai Renxiang got into a relationship with her boss.
Yi Mingsheng chose to put all his questions aside for now. He would ask her later when he had the chance. But for now, he needs to play it cool and worry about her instead of getting all jealous.
"There is no need to be sorry. I told mum not to tell. But you guys are here now and that is good enough for me," Bai Renxiang said in understanding.
Everyone had their own business to bother about in their own life. She did not expect people, especially these two to leave their work or whatever to come and see her at the hospital.
"Such an understanding child. Meilin is so lucky to have you," Mrs Yi said.
"I am the only lucky to have my mother with me."
"There is a new face in the house. Say, sweetie. Who is that handsome young man over there?" Mrs Yi asked.
"Oh, him?" Bai Renxiang turned to look at Li Fengjin who intern had his eyes on her for a long time. "Well, he is my boyfriend," she said with a light blush.
"Gasp. Really? So it is true. My girl is a grown woman now," Mrs Yi said. "Young man, come over here. Let me see you," she beckoned Li Fengjin.
Li Fengjin was used these kinds of things. He remembers when his mother would take him to get hometown for a visit. Most of the oldies would always want to see her son.
So, he stood straight from the wall he was leaning on and majestically walked toward Mrs Yi. Thanks to his long legs, he was there in no time.
"Good morning, Mrs Yi," he greeted politely with a little bow.
"Oh! A well mannered young man. Good morning to you too. Wah! My Bai Renxiang sure has good tastes," she praised Li Fengjin's looks.
"Oh, stop it, aunt. This is Li Fengjin, my boyfriend. Li Fengjin this is my aunt Yi and her son, Yi Minsheng," she introduced them.
"You are welcomed, my dear. I hope you treat my sweet girl well and not make her cry back to her mother, hmm?" Mrs Yi said.
"I would never make her cry. I promise to take good care of her and Bai Xiaojin," Li Fengjin said and accepted Mrs Yi's hug.
"It is nice to meet you, Mr Li," Yi Minsheng stretched his hands for a shake.
"It is nice to meet you too, Yi Minsheng," Li Fengjin shook his hands.
For a few seconds, their eyes were locked. Like they were fighting some imaginary war between each other. Yi Minsheng was the first to break the eye contact and cleared his throat.
"So, now that we have known each other, why don't we move to the dining room. I am hungry," Bai Xiaojin said.
"Hahaha, that is true. Let us go. I made enough food for us all," Jiang Meilin said.
On getting to the dining table, Jiang Meilin took her seat at the head of the table. On her right were seated Bai Xiaojin, Li Fengjin, Bai Renxiang and Shane. On Jiang Meilin's left were Mrs Yi, Yi Minsheng, Shin and Shane.
After blessing the food, they started rating while discussing. Li Fengjin was surprised at the taste of the food. It was better than those in high-class restaurants he used to visit.
"So, do you like the food, son?" Jiang Meilin asked Li Fengjin.
"Very. It is way better than what I have eaten in restaurants," he praised.
"You think so?" Jung Meilin asked with a smile.
"I know so."
"Great. Some of them were made by Shin. Especially the steamed buns, steak and the chicken soup," she said.
"Are you serious? You made them?" Li Fengjin asked in awe.
"Yes, I did," Shin answered.
"Unbelievable. Where did you learn how to cook?"
"I was self-taught. I used to live alone some years ago," Shin explained.
"That is cool. Then, can you teach me how to cook?" Li Fengjin asked shocking everyone. Shane choked on his food.
"You... You want to learn h-how to cook from him?" Yi Minsheng asked.
He was shocked. How could a man as high and wealthy and feared by all say he wants to learn how to cook from someone below him? What does he even need cooking for?
Even if he wants to learn, Yi Minsheng thought reach people often have well-known chefs to teach their children how to cook.
"Yes. Is something wrong with my request?" Li Fengjin asked as he looked at everyone at the table. They all had a look of shock on their faces.
"No, there is nothing wrong with that which you have requested. But, why do you want to learn?" Bai Renxiang asked.
"It is simple. To be able to cook for you," he answered with an innocent face.
"Aigoo! This child is very thoughtful and romantic," Mrs Yi said.
"Also, my friends can cook. I have been left out on that for years. They are too busy to even teach me too. The only thing I know how to make is noodles and scrambled eggs," he admitted.
"Pfff... Hahaha!" Bai Renxiang laughed.
"Why are you laughing?"
"So, there is something the almighty CEO Li Fengjin can't do," Bai Renxiang said.
"Well, at least you know it is the only thing I can't do."
