CHAPTER 543
"I don't care about what happened to them. What I want to know is who sent them."
Li Fengjin gulped at the serious look she was now giving him. She looked so dominating right now. But instead of fear, it sent his hormones into excitement.
"Jin," she called out to him again.
Li Fengjin looked away from her for a few seconds do to calm his inner beast down. Now was the time to be serious and not horny.
"Some things are better left unknown, my love. Please just leave everything to your husband," he pleaded as he turned a free stray stands of her hair behind her ear.
Bai Renxiang cart him a ling look before an annoyed sigh left her lips. She moved her body away from him-rolling over to her side of the bed.
"Good night then," she said with her back facing him.
Li Fengjin sighed whule he rubbed both palms on his face. He knew she was not happy with his decision of keeping things to himself. He could see it in her eyes and no her behaviour.
He did not need a soothsayer to interpret those signs for him.
"Come on, love. Don't do this to me," he scooted closer to her.
"What am I doing to you?" She asked. "And don't touch me," she smacked his hand when she felt his it on too her arm.
"But what about our usual cuddles? Why can't I touch you?" Li Fengjin asked with a pout.
"I can't tell you why you can't touch me. Some things are just better left unknown," she fed him his own words.
Li Fengjin pursed his lips. He caused this in the first place. And now he has to deal with her anger. Sighing, he started planting soft kisses on her exposed arm that was not tucked under the duvet.
"Alright, I am sorry," Li Fengjin apologized but there was still silence on her end.
Another sigh let his lips before he rolled across her to the empty spot she was facing. Yet, Bai Renxiang did the unexpected by turning back to the place he rolled from.
Li Fengjin became dumbfounded.
'Sigh. Childish and angry wifey can be something else. But it's so cute,' he exclaimed in his head.
He repeated the same action only for Bai Renxiang to do the same thing. It went in for a short while before Li Fengjin decided it was enough.
Before Bai Renxiang could turn away from him again, he locked her in his arms. An arm under her head holding her shoulders still and the other around her waist. His legs did not to participate in the caging.
Locking her legs between his, he was successfully able to hinder her movements. Bai Renxiang trued to wiggle out of his arms but it was all in vain. He was bigger and stronger than her.
That and the fact that another tamer joined in.
"If you move too carelessly, you might get eaten up all through the night till dawn," Li Fengjin warned in a low and dangerously husky voice.
Bai Renxiang gulped and became as still as a frozen fish coming out of a fridge. The next day was her first day at the branch company of Jiang Corporation. There was no way she can allow him to gobble her up till dawn.
She would probably not be able to walk properly and she she needed her CEO image to be maintained to its fullest.
So like an obedient wife, Li Fengjin's docile cute white rabbit, she slowly nodded her head in agreement to say still.
It made a victorious small appear in his handsome face. Even if she was still now,he made sure that his hold on her remained. Besides, he lived having her in his arms.
"I'm sorry," Li Fengjin apologized again.
Bai Renxiang pursed her lips and looked anywhere but him. Li Fengjin tilted her head by her chin before quickly putting his hand back on her waist.
"I'm sorry for not telling you. You also have the right to know what happened to those people and who sent them," he said.
Bai Renxiang took in a deep breath and exhaled sharply. "Alright, fine. I'm not angry." When Li Fengjin raised a brow at her she corrected herself. "Well, I am. But just a little."
"And I'm sorry for making you angry."
"Apology accepted. Now tell me. Who sent them?" Bai Renxiang's face immediately turned dead serious as she dropped the question.
"There were basically two persons who sent kidnappers after you," he began.
"What? Two persons? Sent people to kidnap just me? Why?" Bai Renxiang just asked.
"Revenge, hate and envy," Li Fengjin answered.
There was a momentary silence that befell the room after her gave his reply. It was Bai Renxiang fell into to deep thoughts. After a while, get eyes met broth his again.
"Who are they She asked.
Li Fengjin did not answer immediately. He first study her expression and trued to read her. He wanted to know how she would feel if he tells her the two people involved.
'Would she be able to take things well? Should I still continue with this?' He questioned in his mind.
"Please, tell me. You have alreay told me this much. Don't keep any thing else," Bai Renxiang spoke as if she heard what he said in his mind.
"I don't want to see you hurting," Li Fengjin whispered.
Bai Renxiang shook her head. She moved her right hand to his cheek and gently caressed it. "I won't feel hurt. But I will if still do not tell me the names of those two persons," she said.
Shutting his eyes close, he let out a small breath through his lips. Bai Renxiang just watched and waited calmly and quietly for him. By the time he opened his eyes, he had decided to just tell her.
"Jiang Bojing and... And Bai Ming. Those were the two people who set two different groups of kidnappers after you," Li Fengjin told her the names.
Bai Renxiang's remained quiet. She looked calm on the outside but Li Fengjin knew it was the complete opposite on her inside. He could her grip on his shirt tightened.
Li Fengjin just hugged her closer to him. If his presence and warmth could help her out of whatever she was feeling, then he would give his all. Besides, he could somehow, understand her if she feels hurt.
To think that those two person, plotting against her to ruin her were related to her. One was her granduncle and the other was her stepsister.
If he were the one, he would feel betrayed even if he never had a great relationship with either of them. All hell would have broken loose on them both.
And maybe... just maybe it would have been only the belongings of them both that would have remained. Their family members would have to bear with it because even their ages would not be spared.
But that was him. He could never be her and she could never be him. Even if she has proven to be strong and cold, she was still a woman after all.
She still has her soft sides. Those sides she shows up her family and closest friends.
"One down. Another one to go and more," Bai Renxiang finally spoke. When Li Fengjin looked down at her face, it showed she was angry and her eyes were misty and red.
The look in those eyes made him shiver. Was this the same woman who was being childish and cute a while back?
"I am going to make sure I pay her back with her own coin. This is the third time she and that home wrecker of a mother did this to me. I will ruin them till there is nothing left to be ruined."
With each words that rolled off of her tongue, the air became more tensed and her grip on his shirt continued to get stronger.

"For what they did to my mother and also me, I will make them all regret it. I will put an end to the Bai family name and match them all to the ground. Each and everyone one of them," she said through gritted teeth.
Whether the walls heard or the stars and the heavens did, she had made that promise. A deadly one that her blood so boil to make sure it would be fulfilled.
Li Fengjin rubbed her back in a soothing manner. He pecked the top of her head and said, "No matter what, just remember that I am always here with you. And also do not let your emotions cloud your thinking. Remember that you need a good plan for payback."
"I will. Thank you, Jin. This for saving me and dealing with those things for me," she appreciated him.
"I am your man so it is my responsibility to protect you."
