CHAPTER 246
When Jiang ilin heard her phone ring, she took it out of her bag to see the caller. She sighed in guilt when she saw it was her daughter's best friend that was calling.
She then rembered that she had not told the girl about what happened during the period Old man Jiang was searching for Bai Renxiang.
"Hello, Xiaozhi," she called softly as soon as she accepted the call.
"Aunt Jiang, is it true? Is... it true that my Rennie was kidnapped?" Ning Xiaozhi asked between her sobs.
"I am sorry. I should have told you sooner but I could not just tell anyone apart from her grandfather," Jiang iling apologised.
"I... I can't believe it. P-Please tell it is not true," Ning Xiaozhi said as she shook her head.
"Listen to , Xiaozhi. My daughter, your best friend, Bai Renxiang was missing for a long. But str us the hospital now," Jiang ilin said.
"Huh? I do not get it."
"Co to City S Hospital. Your friend is there. I will explain better once you arrive, okay?"
"Okay. I am on my way."
With that said, Ning Xiaozhi grabbed her purse and rushed out of her office. She could not care about the stares and worries and puzzlent her employees were in.
All she knew was that she wanted to see and be with her best friend imdiately. As soon as she ca out, she saw a taxi stop in front of a girl.
Ning Xiaozhi rushed towards the cab and lightly pushed the girl aside and got into the taxi.
"Hey. What the fuck are you doing? That is my ride?" The girl yelled.
"Here," Ning Xiaozhi pushed a couple of notes to the girl. "I am sorry for the inconvenience but u need this cab. Take to City S Hospital and hurry," she said the last part to the cab driver.

Li Fengjin ca out of the lodge inside Ye Chaoxiang's cabin after a while. He was now wearing a pair of black coloured denim trousers and a light blue collared shirt.
His face looked better than before but his coldness and take waa still the sa. Ye Chaoxiang and Yang Chen could sense the killing intent hovering around their friend.
"I do not think that shower helped you cool down one bit," Ye Chaoxiang said.
"Sigh. It did not. Thanks for your help guys," Li Fengjin said.
"You do not have to thank us. You would do the sa for us," Yang Chen said as he patted Li Fengjin's shoulder.
"Yeah. We are brothers after all. It is not an to help each other out," Ye Chaoxiang added.
"Thanks. I should get going. I left her with her family without saying much."
"Hmm. Can I co with you? I would love to see my once favourite waitress. I kind of miss her," Yang Chen said hopefully.
"I do not think her family would mind. Let's go," Li Fengjin said.
Together, the three of them went to visit Bai Renxiang. Old man Jiang was surprised to see two wealthy sons from the most powerful families in their country coming to see his granddaughter.
Although they are known to be best of friends, old man Jiang did not expect them to co with Li Fengjin. Jiang ilin was also puzzled.
"Mr Jiang, ma'am," Yang Chen and Ye Chaoxiang greeted.
"Young masters of the Yang and Ye household. I am surprised at your presence," old man Jiang acknowledged their greetings with a nod as he spoke.
"Wait a minute. If these two are from the Yang and Ye household, that ans he is..." Jiang ilin did not complete her words as she stared wide-eyed at her daughter's saviour. Jiang ilin had not thought much about his identity earlier when she ca into Bai Renxiang's hospital room. She did find him familiar but did not have that much energy to ponder on who he was abs where she had seen him.
But hearing the households the two new visitors are from, it was not a problem to know who the saviour was.
"You are Li Fengjin. The Li Fengjin that my daughter talks to over the phone?"
"If you put it that way, yes. I am that Li Fengjin," he answered with a small smile on his face. He was amused at the way Bai Renxiang's mother addressed him.
"I knew you were familiar. Oh, and Dr Ye. Dad, he is the one who attended to when I brought Xiaojin," Jiang ilin said.
"I see. By the way, doctor. Can we have my great-grandson moved closer to his mother?" Old man Jiang asked.
"Yea. I will inform the hospital about it," Ye Chaoxiang said as he shot Li Fengjin an apologetic glance.
He could feel the deadly glare Li Fengjin fired at him when Bai Xiaojin's stay at the hospital was ntioned.
"Please excuse ," Ye Chaoxiang said and quickly exited the room.
"Ma'am, may I see her?" Yang Chen asked.
"Sure, sure."
Yang Chen smiled and walked toward the bed. His eyes examined Bai Renxiang's pale sleeping face.
"Hey there. It is , Yang Chen. We t at that restaurant you used to work in. It has been a while," he said.
"To tell you the truth, I have missed you and your bright smile. You have to get well soon so that I can see that smile. Don't forget that we are dimple friends. Also, if you can wake up soon, my friend's heart would jump in glee."
"Alright, that is enough. Don't disturb her with your noise. She needs to rest her ears," Li Fengjin pulled Yang Chen by his collar.
"Hmph. You are just worried that I will tell her that you-"
"I think you have overstayed your welco, Chen," Li Fengjin cut him off with a warning glare.
"Tsk. This is how you treat soone that helped you in saving your friend," Yang Chen stressed the word friend to tell there was a hidden aning underneath his word.
"Why you-"
"Bai Renxiang."
