His heart raced. He felt as if his heart will burst out of his body very soon. He unconsciously lifted his hand and placed it on the left side of his chest and clutched onto his clothes lightly, as of he could grab his heart out of had s chest and pacify it to calm down.
It is a miracle that he is still standing. Deep down like a scene that played for so seconds, Li Fengjin saw himself happy and jumping. He even carried Bai Xiaojin in his arms and showered kisses on his face. He does not know but hearing Bai Xiaojin's question made him rejoice internally but on the outside, he smiled lightly.
Li Fengjin crouched down to Bai Xiaojin's height and ruffled his hair gently. Surprisingly, it had turned into a habit as he liked doing it. He sighed and looked into Bai Xiaojin's eyes. He could see them again. Those flickering emotions running and going in his eyes. This ti could catch each one of them especially, the longing.
"Why do you want to be your dad? I thought you said I am a stranger?" Li Fengjin asked softly.
Bai Xiaojin's mind started processing thoughts and answers to justify his questions and the ones Li Fengjin had asked just now. He also asked himself that question. Why did he want Li Fengjin, a man whose identity he does not even know and has just t for the first ti in his three years of existence?
After much thinking has been done and ti went by, Bai Xiaojin pursed his lips and released them. He steeled himself for his answer as he inhaled and exhaled deeply.
"First of all, you are not a stranger. Strangers do not just give gifts to children except they are Santa Claus and you are not Santa. Secondly, you protected from those kids earlier... Just like a father would do for his child. Number three," he said as he lifted his hands to Li Fengjin showing three fingers, he continued.
"I want a daddy. I keep dreaming about one and the one I dreamt of sounds like you. Number four, you are nice to and seem to know and like even if you put up a neutral and stern face in front of ," Bai Xiaojin said.
"And last but not least as I still have more reasons. I want soone that will be able to protect my mummy and take care of her with all his heart and he should be good looking too and tall. You fit the standard very much," he pointed out.
"I just want my mummy to not bear all the burden of taking care of and grandma. Even if she does not show it, I know it. I just want soone to love my mummy like the way she loves and adored and cares for and grandma. That is all I want," he finally stopped to ask the question he asked before.
"So mister, will you be my daddy?"
Li Fengjin felt touched by all those things Bai Xiaojin said. Poor kid and his mother. He patted Bai Xiaojin's head one last ti and said, "As I said earlier on, be strong and do not let what people say get to you and hurt your feelings. Do not show them that you are weak and an easy target for their harsh words. Goodbye big man," Li Fengjin stood up and left without looking back. The car drove away at a steady pace and finally disappeared from Bai Xiaojin's sight. Leaving only small specs of dust in its trails.
"He did not answer my question. No, that mister simply and intentionally avoided my question," he spoke softly.
"Where is my son?"
Just then Bai Xiaojin heard Bai Renxiang's panicked, angry and loud voice at the school gate. He abruptly turned to the school gate and saw her yelling at the security man and so teachers by the gate. It looks like she had arrived when he was aimlessly looking ahead in the direction Li Fengjin's car drive to. He sighed as he pitied the man. But Bai Xiaojin just stood still and watched how his mother dealt with all of them.
"Miss, please calm down. We can solve this quietly," a teacher said.
"Calm down. My son is not within the premises and you are telling to calm down? What are you? Stupid or just dumb?" Bai Renxiang latched out at the teacher that dared to tell her to calm down.
"Miss, I saw him. He went outside the school with a scary mam," one of the boys that bullied Bai Xiaojin earlier said.
Hearing such, Bai Renxiang almost fainted. Bai Xiaojin, her timid son went outside the school gate under the watch of the 'security' with a SCARY man.
"What?! How can that be possible?" Shane asked in surprise and fear. Even the three female teachers that were present gulped and had their eyes wide as they stared at the security man in disbelief.
Bai Renxiang had no ti to waste any further and asked for soone to call the principal and turned to face the security man and who was already trembling in fear. Cold sweat could be seen sliding down his forehead and his shirt was almost soaked.
"Where were you when a scary man walked out of the school through the gates you were paid to stand guard and watch carefully?" Bai Renxiang asked in a low yet icy manner. The atmosphere around them dropped.
Bai Renxiang's eyes were red and tears were threatening to fall any mont but she still tried to avoid crying. The security man opened and closed his mouth like a fish in water. It annoyed Bai Renxiang.
"Answer , you idiot."
