Chapter 71 Where Is My Daddy?
"Mummy?" Bai Xiaojin called out softly.
"Yes, my love," she answered. Bai Xiaojin turned around so that he could face her.
"Can I ask you a question?"
"Yes, you can. Is there a problem?" She asked suspiciously. His behaviour was starting I to creep her out.
"No, there is no problem. I just... I just wanted to ask a question. It has been on my mind lately. I wanted to ask you a long time back, but you were busy with work and when you come back you are always tired. But since you are not doing anything now, I wanted to ask if it was okay to ask you a question," he explained.
"I am sorry for not paying much attention to you. You can ask whatever you want to ask me, anytime at all. So tell me what you want to ask," she probed. She had not really been there for her son due to work but she did not want that to be her excused for not raising and paying attention to get son. She needs to make it up to him.
"Mummy, where is my daddy?"
GBAGHAN
Shock, fear, anxiety and sadness were the emotions Bai Renxiang is feeling at the moment. She could not find her words.
Seeing as his mother went silent, Bai Xiaojin continued carefully while fondling with his little fingers.
"Since I was born or since when u started having memories, i have noticed that all the men around us, around you are not my daddy. There is GG, who is your grandpa. There is uncle Shin and Shane who works for GG and lastly, is uncle Minsheng, who is just our neighbour," he listed while counting on his fingers. Then he sighed and continued again.
After a few seconds of silence, Bai Renxiang inhaled and exhaled deeply.
"Do you think that I am not capable enough to take care of you? Do you think I do not love you anymore or you do not love your mummy anymore?" Bai Renxiang asked softly.
"Am I not enough for my baby? Or my baby is starting to get bored of me, huh?" She said with a playful pout on her lips. Her words surprised Bai Xiaojin. He was only voicing out his thoughts and it seems he hurt his mummy.
"I do not think you are not capable enough or you do not love me because I know you do. Where did that even come from and when did I say any of those things?" He asked as he too pouted angrily at her.
"Well I thought you do not want your mummy anymore and that was the reason behind your question," she said.
"WHAT?! Why would I not want my mummy.? If not you, then who will I want? You know what? O will always want and love my mummy. In fact, I do not need anybody but you," he stated.
"Really? You will not leave mummy?" She asked.
"Never. I love you mummy. I love so so much," he said and dived in for a hug.
"I love you too," Bai Renxiang hugged him back. She sighed quietly as she was able to divert his attention from the identity and whereabouts of his father. She was not ready to tell him about her condition. She did not even want him to know.
But deep down within herself and her heart, she longed for someone or that stranger to be there for her son. She wanted someone her son could look up to and call him his father. But she wondered if they will ever happen as she was not sure she could find that someone.
She knows that if she is to find a father for her son, she needs to love that man and her heart could not bring herself to love anyone. She could not afford another heartbreak. No more. Fu Bolin had done enough damage to her weak heart.

Speaking of Fu Bolin, he and Han Yuri had gotten married this year. Their marriage was even on the news and headlines for a long period of time.
It seems Fu Bolin really loved his wife. They were seen together everywhere.
"Yo Bolin. What's up bro? How was your honeymoon?" Feng Yisheng asked as he hugged Fu Bolin. He just returned from his honeymoon in Maldives and decided to chill with his friends.
"It was fine. Thank you for asking," he replied.
Just then Zhou Rong came from Fu Bolin's back and ruffled his hair.
"Hey man, welcome back. We have missed you so much," he said happily. Then all of a sudden, his mood changed.
"But then, I guess you did not miss us a single bit because you had a beautiful wife by your side, right Yisheng?" He asked as he stood beside Feng Yisheng.
"Right," he answered.
"Sigh. Come on guys. I missed you too and we talked on the phonelike six times. I totally did not forget you guys, Fu Bolin coaxed them.
"Alright. We will let this slide. Tell us about your honeymoon," Zhou Rong probed. He was in the mood for gossiping.
"Yeah, I am curious. Did you take lots and lots of pictures? Why am I even asking? I am sure my sister-in-law did," Feng Yisheng also asked.
Fu Bolin is the first amongst them that had gotten married and they wanted to know the feeling. Fu Bolin sighed. His friends were once again making him the subject of their discussion.
"What is there to talk about? My honeymoon was cool and hot. And yes, we took a whole lots of pictures," he said briefly.
