CHAPTER 551

Seeing the way grandpa Bai pleaded for forgiveness and his will to set things straight thawed at her heart. She was still a softie even if she wanted to steel her heart against the Bai family.

The feeling of guilt started to slowly invade her heart. It was hard, yes. But she has to ignore the pain and plea in his eyes.

Just as she was almost drowning in the conflict of self-guilt and indifference, her phone lit up and the sweet melody of that special song began to absorb the silence in the office.

A small smile graced her gorgeous face as she picked up her phone. It was a video call. the transfered the call to her laptop before receiving it.

"Hey, hubby," she greeted with a small smile.

"Where you contemplating on whether to receive my call or not?" Li Fengjin asked and pouted.

"Of course not. Why would I?" she asked back.

"Well, maybe because you are feeling down and not in the mood to talk."

Bai Renxiang was shocked but she quickly masked it. Unfortunately, nothing can escape from the sharp eyes of the man she loves.

"I'm not feeling down or anything. I took a little time to receive the call because I wanted to see you better on my laptop's screen. That's all," Bai Renxiang lied.

"My love, since when did we start to lie to each other?" Li Fengjin asked and sighed.

He made her know that he was observing her and nothing foul escape him. Plus, he always read her because she was like an open book with him.

Getting his hint, Bai Renxiang looked away from the screen to her fingers that were fiddling with one another. She looked like a little kid caught taking cookie from the cookie jar without permission.

"What is bothering you, my love? I am all ears so you can let it all out to me," Li Fengjin said in a soft voice.

"It's nothing you should worry yourself about. I'm fine," she still tried to evade it.

Sighing, Li Fengjin pulled closer to his desk and adjusted more comfortably on his chair. "I would have agreed with you if the unnecessary is making you feel dull. It is affecting you and I can see it. So, please tell me? I won't judge you."

Bai Renxiang sighed and delayed a few more seconds before her lips parted open.

"Do you... Do you think I am cruel?" She suddenly asked.

​ Li Fengjin was at first taken aback by her question but he shook it off. "I would never think that and you are bit cruel. You are the sweetest sweet white rabbit there is," he answered.

Bai Renxiang sighed and pouted. "I am being serious, Jin," she whined.

"As am I. I'm stating the facts here. You are not cruel at all. Why would you ask that?"

"It's because I think I am cruel," her voice was small but it still reached his ears.

"Don't call my sweet potato, cruel. I will get mad," he playfully frowned.

Bai Renxiang let out a small chuckle and shook her head. Li Fengjin also smiled. He got what he was aiming for. A genuine expression.

"You are not cruel, darling." He spoke but this time his voice was laced with tenderness and his eyes showed he was serious beyond words.

Bai Renxiang sighed. "I collected his shares and I am still angry at him. He just wants everything to be right. But I... I am still set on my revenge. I don't know why I feel so guilty inside when I am the one who suffered more."

Bai Renxiang tried her best to pour out what she felt into words. Even if it was not exactly how it was deep down, she knew he would be able to at least understand her.

He always did.

Li Fengjin stayed quiet and gave her listening ears. His full attention were fixed on her. Of course only her could understand best how she felt but he made sure to out himself in her shoes.

It was the only way he knew best how to understand a person.

"Hey, you are feeling guilty because the old man once treated you right. But if you really think deep about it, the people your revenge is aimed at is your father and stepsister. The old man who just have a bear the little impact of it and that's al," Li Fengjin said.

"I know but–"

"Don't think too much about it," he shook his head. "I don't see the need for you to feel that way though. He only gave you a small part of what is rightfully yours."

"So do not feel guilty or think that you are cruel. Take it as him offering to be a small step in achieving what you planned for," he added.

Bai Renxiang let every word from Li Fengjin sink into her head. She pondered on it and weighed them. He was right though. Grandpa Bai was not even one of her main target.

It took a while but she soon started feeling better and less guilty. It was much clearer with the way Li Fengjin put it.

"Yoy always know what to say and do to cheer me up. Thank you," she appreciates his effort made for her.

Li Fengjin smiled. "It is my duty as you husband, soul mate and life partner to be able to do this."

Bai Renxiang threw her head back and laughed. "Now you are at it again with your duty talks," she said brtweennher laughter.

"I am only stating the truth," Li Fengjin sgryymged with a smile of his own.

"If not for the fact that you are a businessman and a family man, I would have suggested that you write a book," she thought out loud.

"Oh, yeah? What would it be about?" He asked with amusement dancing in his eyes.

"Silly, you. Of course it would be about these duties you know so much of."

"Is that so? But I have got not name in mind for such book," Li Fengjin placed a finger on her chin as he thought.

Bai Renxiang chuckled before biting down in her lower lip. "Let's see. You can name it, Your Duty as a Partner," she spread her arms out and stared ahead like she was picturing it.

"Oh! I like that."

"Why would you not? Be it a boyfriend, fiance or a husband, you know all about their duty. I am sure it would hit big and win over the book market," she nodded.

"I may win best seller if I do. After all, many men would love to get a beauty if their own with my skills," his nose grew long in pride.

Bai Renxiang laughed again. He was impossible. Li Fengjin just smiled as he stared at her bewitching smile. His ears drown in the sweet melody of her laughter.

This is how he wanted her to be. Joyous, carefree at times and not bothered by others.

"You sound so beautiful, my love," Li Fengjin voiced out his admiration.

Bai Renxiang blushed and tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear. Her eyes looking at anything else but his. She had to say she was lucky they were not in the name elect right now.

He would definitely kiss her and it would lead to an entirely intimate thing. And of course, she would love if it did.

To keep her head out of her naughty imaginations, she thanked him for his compliment.

"I would rather you think me with not just words, honey. But since we are not together for now, I would patiently wait for tonight," he sigh and winked at her.

"Ahem. I should hang up now. I have a meeting in a few minutes she quickly changed the topic.

Knowing that she was feeling embarrassed and wanted to escape from his hot self, Li Fengjin let her off.

"Alright. I don't want anyone to see your face when you blush so I will let you go he blurted out. "I will pick you up from work. Bye."

*toot toot*

Bai Renxiang blinked as she was too dumbfounded to say a word before he ended the call.

"What a considerate hubby I have," she sacarstically said and then sighed.

Xia Xinyi cane in time to inform her of the arrival of Lawyer Long's arrival. Her eyes moved toward the mini digital clock on her desk.

"Well he is a punctual one," She mumbled while nodding.

Taking deep and calming breaths, she adjusted her clothes and walked out of her office. She had yet to receive a call from Mr Sun about the meeting she asked him to schedule.

Either way, she would need to also discuss with this lawyer before proceeding with that meeting.

"Soon Bai Ming. You and your mother would suffer all the ridicule and mockery you caused me in the past."
