CHAPTER 548
At the sight of the woman he once had a thing for, Dai Kai could swear his heart flip. They way she stood, the way she looks and speaks. And that smirk on her face...
But he had to rush all those as of he was slamming a fly to the wall. She was happily married with a kid in fact.
So he just tried to act... normal and said hello and he was happy she did too.
"I see that you are still the sensible twin," Bai Renxiang said.
Dai Kira, Dai Kai's junior twin scoffed and rolled her eyes. "You rember my brother but not but you know we are a twin?"
"That's exactly why I don't want to rember you. You are too noisy and your lips are always out to make trouble. Don't make really rember you, Kira," Bai Renxiang sent her a warning gaze.
She still rembered how Dai Kira especially did not pick her call when she needed help. She rembered how they all abandoned her knowing fully well she would not have entirely done that.
"Don't make up excuses to cover for the fact that you are eyeing my brother," Kira blurted out.
"Oh sweetie. Don't get ahead of yourself. My eyes only sees one man and he is already mine," Bai Renxiang said as she fished her ring before their eyes.
"So, I am better off without excuses like that and that's why I don't make them. Don't go about saying so untrue things. It might make people misunderstand the situation," she added.
Although Dai Kai felt a little hurt by her words, he still had to do sothing about his sister's rude behaviour. He had been sensing the weird atmosphere tensing up, so he stepped in.
But before he could say anything...
"Wifey, what are doing here?" Li Fengjin happily called.
Not minding the other two there, he pulled her in for a quick kiss and hugged her. He then sighed.
"I missed you so much," he breathed out.
Bai Renxiang was left speechless as everything happened so fast. It took a little bit of ti before she regained herself and hugged in back.
"I missed you too, hon. What are you doing here? Are you not supposed to be at work?" Bai Renxiang asked.
"I ca as soon as I was inford of your presence here. Plus, this mall is just a few blocks away my company," Li Fengjin explained.
Bai Renxiang smiled and nodded. "We can go and pick Xiaojin from school then."
"That's great. Wait, who are these? Your friends?" Li Fengjin asked as he finally took notice of the two figure standing in front of them.
Bai Renxiang smiled and shook her head. "I would not particularly call them my friends especially her," she raised her chin at Dai Kira.
Li Fengjin's brows furrowed as he took in the appearance of them both and also tried to read the atmosphere.
"Are they troubling you?"
Just those words were enough to scare the sh*t out of the twins. They already knew that there was another aning attached to that question.
If she says yes, he will take care of them without even lifting a finger.
Seeing how scared the got, Bai Renxiang chuckled. "Not really. Just sothing about the past. But I do not have ti for that and you should not either. Let's go."
Li Fengjin cast one last glance at the duo before he took Bai Renxiang's free hand in his. He smiled and said, "Then let's go then. It is almost ti for the school closing hours."
"Yeah. It was nice seeing you Dai Kai. I can't say the sa for your twin but whatever. Bye."
With that said the couple strode away from the twins. Dai Kai let out a relieved sigh and turned to his twin. She was not that happy though but he could not care less.
"Don't look as if you have been wronged," his voice pulled her out if her thoughts. "You were the one who started saying rude things to her."
"But brother she pretended not to know and was acting all proud," Dai Kira complained and pouted.
"Both of us know that even in wealth, Bai Renxiang does not act proud. Just drop it, Kira. And don't ever ntion that thing about she eyeing or whatever it is. I will not be so soft next ti," he scolded her.
Dai Kira bit in her lips and nodded. She beca a docile little lamb imdiately. She had no words to refute. Plus her brother looks really mad at her this ti and it was because of Bai Renxiang.
And hated it when her brother gets mad at her.
Seeing tears pooling at her eyes and she trying to hold them back from falling, Dai Kai sighed. He hmgave a bear hug and rubbed her back.
"I'm sorry I got angry. But I have to correct you this ti. Stop crying, okay?" He petted her.
Feeling her nodding against ghost chest, he pulled away and wiped her tears. "Co. Let's go and get you your favourite ice cream. Big brother would let you get an extra scoop this ti."
"Promise?"
"I promise. Since we are wine here, let's pay and leave."
"Okay," Dai Kira nodded happily.
Dai Kai sighed again. Is sister was always a sweet, quiet and peaceful girl. But since they got a job at Bai Jewelries and beca friends with Ru Chu i and the others, she got influenced and changed drastically.
Especially after the news about Bai Renxiang.
He for one die not like that change so he was trying his best to detach her from them and bring back his old sister. That's why he followed her to wherever she felt like going.
He did not want her with those girls again.

anwhile, Bai Renxiang and Li Fengjin were done with the paynt of what she purchased and were on their way to the school to pick up Li Xiaojin.
"Those two back at the shopping mall," Li Fengjin started and then paused.
He knew she said not to bother with them but he could not help it. As far as it concerns her past, he was always itchy to know.
"You can ask anything. I will not mind," Bai Renxiang urged him to go on while she intertwined their hand together.
Li Fengjin sighed and nodded. "Who are they? We're they giving you trouble of so kind?"
"They were among the few close friends I had when I used to work at Bai Jewelries. Or I though they were my close friends. Things beca more clear when that scandal happened and everyone abandoned ."
Bai Renxiang went ahead to tell him what happened back then. Including the law her once father established in the company just to keep her away.
"They do not deserve to be your friends it they could not help," Li Fengjin comnted with a frown.
"Yeah. But sotis I do not bla them and sotis I do. A little effort was not even made and that was sothing I would definitely do if they were in my shoes," Bai Renxiang said with a bitter smile.
Li Fengjin sighed and gave her a side hug. He place a gentle kiss on her head before saying, "You don't need them anymore. You have and the rest of our friends. True friends."
"And that is why I'm not that affected if I see them. They made see them for who they are and I learned to make better friends at last."
"Yeah."
The ride continued for a while longer and they continued to discuss. Bai Renxiang, just as she did to her mother, told Li Fengjin about the eting she had with Mr Sun.
Li Fengjin was very surprised and pleased at how Jiang ilin arranged things. It was no wonder his wife was so smart.
~Few minutes later~
"We ca just in ti," Li Fengjin sighed out.
They had just arrived at the school and could see children walking out of their classrooms to either the playground or toward the care to et their guardian.
It did not take too long before they spotted their child coming out with one of his hands in Ye Lee Ai's hand and the other holding his lunchbox.
He looked happier than Bai Renxiang had expected and it was big relief. It could only an his first day in a new school and differnt environnt was good.
"Xiaojin," she called out loudly so he could hear amidst the nice of the crowd.
Li Xiaojin and Ye Lee Ai who were busy talking stopped and searched for the familiar voice and its owner.
"Mummy! Daddy," Li Xiaojin's eyes brightened along with a smile that could sha the brightest sun.
He dashed toward her with his little legs and jumped into her opened arms, hugging her by her neck.
