Playboy CEO Has a Baby - Chapter 69

CHAPTER 69 – Her Wish
Bai Renxiang stretched as she inhaled the cool air outside the restaurant. It was a few minutes past five which means that her shift was over and it was time to go home.
With her small sling bag, she strolled down the street. She kept on thinking about the years that has gone by.
Since her grandfather met with that accident, things had been so hard. Her grandfather’s siblings and cousins already had their hands on his properties.
Even the house he bought for them which they were currently living in was a target of their relatives’ greed.
At first, she thought that the money she earned from her job was enough but it was not. She had to work to earn more than enough in case of any mishaps in the future.
“I have to work harder or else my family and I will suffer. I should start increasing the money I put into my savings. I should cut down my shopping and eating out. At least I could save a little more from that,” she thought to herself.
She sat down on a nearby bench, just watching people walk pass. Cars driving on the road, stores opening and some closing, people going in and out of places.
Just as she was gazing, her phone rang. She removed the phone from her purse and answered the call. “Hello Shane,” she spoke.
“Sis, where are you? I am at the front of the restaurant. Are you still working?” Shane’s voice rang out immediately after he heard her voice.
“No, I am not still working. I just wanted to take a little stroll. I am at the end of the street, by a vendor store. I will wait for you here,” she told.
“Alright, I am heading your way. Wait for me,” Shane said and ended the call.
In less than a minute, Bai Renxiang spotted the car Shane was riding and waved to safe him the hassle of looking for her.
Shane spotted a girl on red waving at him. He sighed in relief as he quickly pulled over by the side if the walkway. Bai Renxiang rushed around the car to the passenger’s seat, opened the door and hopped in before slamming the door shut.
“You know, you got me worried for a minute there. I thought our deal was for you to call me when you are done with work, wait outside and I come pick you up?”
He paused, waiting to hear her reply but when he got none, he continued speaking.
“Then why did you ditch our plan and went off to stroll? Do you know how dangerous it is for a pretty lady like you to be strolling all by yourself?” He scolded her with an angry pout.
“Are you scolding me right now? Okay, fine I am sorry for ditching our plan. I just had a lot on my mind and decided to just walk while thinking. It helps me calm down,” Bai Renxiang explained.
When she saw him still frowning, she sighed and ruffed his well combed hair like a kid.
“Besides, no one would have been able to harm me when there are so many people around. I mean, it is a busy day today. Please understand me and do not make this pretty lady sad,” she pleaded with a pout and puppy eyes.
“Oh alright. Stop with that look. I will forgive you this time. I wonder how you will be able to persuade Shin when he finds out though,” Shane mused
“Why are we talking about brother Shin right now? And why do I need to persuade him if he does not know about it?” Bai Renxiang asked in confusion.
“Because he just heard everything that has happened,” Shane explained.
“What? I do not understand you. How would he hear when he isn’t here and you are not on a call.”
“Pff, please Renxiang. Right from the beginning of our call and your excuse about not abiding by our plans to this moment that we are speaking, he has heard it all. And this is possible because of this,” he said as he pointed to the wireless mini walkie-talkie he put in his ear.
This revelation shocked the hell out of Bai Renxiang. She was so… so… so… so… TOAST!
“I thought you,” she looked at him with unbelieving eyes. “W-when didd y-you start wearing those?” She asked while stuttering. This piece of news held her words.
“We always had. You just did not see us using it.”
“Seriously!” she threw her hands in the air a bit to be more dramatic. In her mid, she hoped this might lessen her problem and Shin’s anger.
“You know he can only hear you and not see you, right?” Shane reminded her.
“He might as well just install a CCTV,” she sarcastically let put.
“Hmm, not a bad idea. I know he would agree to that. With that we can better monitor you hahaha.”
“Come on stop it. This is serious. I am toast.”
“I know. Anyways, Shin wants us home in less than thirty minutes so I got to speed drive. Put on your seat belt,” he instructed before driving back and entering the road.
In less than thirty minutes, Shane pulled the car over beside their house. Both him and Bai Renxiang alighted from the car and walked briskly into the house.
They were greeted with the stern face of Shin and happy eyes of Bai Xiaojin, who ran to welcome his mother with his warm hugs and kisses. Immediately she saw her little bundle of joy rushing towards her, all her worries and stress disappeared.
All she thought of at that moment was to protect, love, care and pamper him. It was what she has been wishing for since she decided to keep her baby and she would make sure, to get this wish fulfilled.
