Playboy CEO Has a Baby

CHAPTER 335

"My father had suddenly started smuggling drugs and some weapons back then. A lot of us were against him because he was doing the exact same thing we were fighting against. I talked and argued with him about him but he was still adamant. So I left," Zhao Fu explained.

"But if you guys were fighting against other mafia gangs, why not work for the army or some agency?" Jiang Meilin asked.

She found it a little absurd that there would be any mafia gang that would be good enough to fight other gangs just for... good.

"Well, mafia runs deep in the line of our family. My father wanted a change and went for it. But he still followed their ways. But trust me I am not like that," Zhao Fu quickly said.

"But your past is still the same. You might have to anyone for the bad deeds of your fathers. I do not want to always be wary of who is out there waiting for the right moment to strike. I do not want to be used by your enemies as a medium to get you."

"Sigh. I swear on my already dead father's grave that nothing will happen to you or anyone you hold dear," Zhao Fu swore.

"Your dad is dead?" Jiang Meilin asked in surprise.

"Yes, he is. Apparently from an overdose of drugs. Look, if it makes you feel better, I used to work for the army," Zhao Fu said.

"You did? Since when?"

"Well, after you shattered my hopes of getting back with you," Zhao Fu said with a pitiful expression.

Jiang Meilin rolled her eyes at his act.

"I am being serious. When you broke the news of your marriage to me, I was broken. It was at that time I lost my only family which was my father. So, as the gang was dissolved, I joined the army and made my way into being a high position of general."

"Even at that Zhao Fu, we can't start afresh. I am too old for relationships now," Jiang Meilin shook her head.

"But you are not old. You are still as beautiful as ever and as fresh as those pretty flowers that bloom in spring. Even if you are old, do I look like I am young myself?"

"No. But my answer still remains no," Jiang Meilin said.

She took his silence as an opportunity for her to get going. Standing up, she thanked him for the cappuccino and left. Zhao Fu sighed.

"It looks like her mind is already made up," he said dejectedly. "But so is mine."

His gaze had changed to that of a determined lover.

"There are a lot of ways to make you accept my love, Mei. I just need to start by letting you realize that our feelings are mutual. At least your cheeks were slightly red when I complimented on your beauty. I still have hope," he muttered to himself.

After finishing his cup of black coffee, he called the waiter and paid the bill. Then, he left the cafe heading straight to Jiang Meilin's grocery store.

"What do you want now? Have you decided to start following me?" Jiang Meilin asked in shock and suspicion.

"No, but that would not be a bad idea. I can start now," Zhao Fu joked.

"Don't you dare," Jiang Meilin sent him a warning glare.

"Hahaha," he let out a small laugh. "Relax, I am just pulling your legs. I came back for my groceries," Zhao Fu pointed at the grocery on her counter.

"Sigh. How could you forget?" Jiang Meilin said under her breath?

"I will just pretend that I did not hear that, Mei," Zhao Fu said.

" did not say it for you not to hear," Jiang Meilin retired.

"Well, then why were you talking so lowly? If not for my sharp ears, I would not have heard what you said," Zhao Fu said.

"Hahaha. Good for you and your sensitive ears," she laughed sarcastically. "What you bought is six hundred and seventy yuan," passed him his groceries in multiple bags as what he bought was much.

"Can I get a discount for knowing the owner of this grocery store?" Zhao Fu asked.

"Even if you know the owner, you would pay the same as every other customer. Now, step aside and allow me to attend to others," Jiang Meilin said in a flat tone.

"Tsk. You are so itchy to send me away. Fine, I will go. See ya tomorrow," Zhao Fu said before he left.

"Hmph. Who will still want to see you tomorrow? Thank God that Bai Renxiang is sending her driver to come and pick me up. I will just stay at home until the driver arrives," Jiang Meilin mumbled.

After the day came to a close and when the last customer left Jiang Meilin decided to wrap up and close the store. Once they got home, Shin warmed up the food and served dinner.

"So, is Bai Renxiang and little Jin coming home today?" Shane asked.

"No. We should get used to them not coming home once in a while," Jiang Meilin answered with a smile.

"Why?" Shin asked.

"Well, she discovered that the father of Xiaojin is Li Fengjin, her boyfriend."

"Are you kidding me?" Shane exclaimed.

"How did she find out?" Shin asked.

"Well, first if all their resemblance. Then, Li Fengjin told her bout it. Also, she is engaged to him already," Jiang Meili said.

"Whoah, whoa! Hold up, slow down. Sis is engaged?"

"Yes, she is. So, I will not be here tomorrow. You two will have to take care of the opening and maybe the closing of the store tomorrow."

"Wow! This is perfect. When you go, send my congrats to them," Shane said.

"I will do that."

"So, who was the customer that you left with? You were quite shocked. Is he someone we should worry about?" Shin asked.

"Oh, that man. Well, he is just an old acquaintance."
