CHAPTER 288

The week rolled by fast and the weekend came. Bai Xiaojin was super excited about the outing. He slept very late the previous night.

????

The previous night.

Bai Xiaojin had disturbed his mother and grandmother about the fun places he wanted to visit. He spent so much time searching for what to wear.

Bai Renxiang was very amused with his display. She kept giving her comments on the clothes Bai Xiaojin would ask her opinion.

"Mummy, what about this one?" Bai Xiaojin showed her a pair of clothes.

"Hmm. You wore it on our outing to the park.," Bai Renxiang said.

"That is true. We would be taking lots of pictures, I do not want to be seen in the same clothes for two different outings. I will pick something else," Bai Xiaojin agrees with her.

He dug into the wardrobe to find what other thing he could wear. While he was busy with his search, Bai Renxiang's phone rang. She blushed as she saw the name displayed on her screen.

'My Sweetheart'

Since it was a video call, Bak Renxiang arranged her messy hair, adjusted her clothes and took deep breaths. She did not want to appear shy or nervous once she picked up the call.

Knowing Li Fengjin, he would tease her forever. After making sure she looked okay and her face was not that flushed, she received the call.

"Hey," she said with a smile.

"Hey, my love. What took you so long to answer the call?" Li Fengjin asked.

"Nothing. My phone was far from me. I am sorry to have kept you waiting," she apologised.

"No worries. I just wanted to see your face so badly. You look fresh. I guess you just had your bath," he said.

"Yeah, I did a few minutes ago. You look fresh too. You just came out from the bath. Your hair is still wet," Bai Renxiang pointed out.

"Oh, yeah. I just finished some paperwork and decide to shower. But then you have been on my mind all through. I just could not wait to see and hear your voice."

"I see. You have such a sweet tongue. Dry your hair now before you catch a cold. I am not intending to end the call if that is what you are scared of," she said.

"Alright," Li Fengjin said with a light smile.

He wedged his phone with his pillow before reaching out for the towel. Li Fengjin left Bai Renxiang to the delicious sight of his muscular chest and his well-carved eight packs abs.

Bai Renxiang gulped and blushed at such a sight. She quickly averted her eyes to Bai Xiaojin to keep her sanity in check. She did not want to be caught drooling now, would she?

Li Fengjin smirked when he saw her little reaction to seeing him half-naked. He was glad and proud she found his body attractive enough to make her full and blush.

"Mummy, what do you think of this one? I have not worn it since you bought it for me," Bai Xiaojin's voice broke the couple out of their thoughts.

Bai Xiaojin showed her a pair of black trousers and a matching black hoodie with an anime cartoon printed on it.

"Ah! That is good. But what if the sun becomes so hot tomorrow? Those clothes will man's you uncomfortable," Bai Renxiang said.

"Okay. I will find another," Bai Xiaojin shrugged and turned back to the wardrobe.

Bai Renxiang could not help but let out a small chuckle. Her son looked so enthusiastic about the outing. The excitement in his eyes was more than the one he had when she told him about their visit to the park last time.

"Why is that kid still awake?" Li Fengjin asked as his gaze trailed to the wall clock in his room. "It is already past his bedtime, don't you think?"

"Yes. But he would not sleep. He is so full of energy. Just the thought of the outing we have tomorrow got him all fired up," Bai Renxiang said and shook her head.

"Really?" Li Fengjin was amused.

"Yes, really. He has been yapping about what he wants to do and where he wants to go. At this moment, he is busy turning the room into a mess because of the clothes he wants to wear tomorrow," she said as she looked at the small kid swimming in his clothes.

"I can't believe it. Let me see him," Li Fengjin said.

Bai Renxiang turned her phone to Bai Xiaojin. Li Fengjin gasped seeing the mess. Clothes were scattered everywhere as they were thrown in different directions.

Li Fengjin chuckled seeing him. Just in time, Bai Xiaojin turned to ask Bai Renxiang about the next clothes he picked.

"I found a good one. Look, mummy. I..."

He paused as his eyes met his mother's phone screen. He looked at Bai Renxiang, the scattered room and back at Li Fengjin.

"Ah! Quick turn it away. Uncle Jin can't see how messy I am," Bai Xiaojin screamed.

He hurriedly moved to pick up his clothes from the floor and the bed. Bai Renxiang burst into laughter as well as Li Fengjin.

"Stop laughing. Ah! Mummy, why did you not tell me that you were on a video call with Uncle Jin?" Bai Xiaojin asked.

"I did not think about it. Besides, you were so focussed on what you were doing. I simply did not want to distract you," Bai Renxiang explained.

Bai Xiaojin's eyes moved over to Bai Renxiang's phone.historical

"Uncle Jun, I am not a messy boy, okay? What you saw just now was a little, um... I was-"

"Overly excited," Li Fengjin completed his sentence. "I could see that. I do not think you are messy, so relax. In fact, you should be in bed sleeping by now," he added.

"I know. But I can't. I am under excitement pressure."

"Sigh. Take it from me. Anything you choose will be great."
