Redeeming The Golden Ticket To Life

Chapter 21: The Family Outing



Chapter 21: The Family Outing

[POV Hu Qiang]

I am surprised to know Donna wants Bai Chang to be her muse. This will tire out Bai Chang; she will also take her away from me.

'How am I supposed to date her?'

'I will do what Bai Chang wants as long as she is happy with it. Let it be.'

"How about we discuss the collection in details now? It is as good as a time, as any to start the conversation." Donna suggested.

"Seems good to me" Bai Chang replied without hesitation.

Me and Wang Wei, we can only tag along with her to her workroom. It is altogether a different story inside. In the workroom there were various fabrics and materials scattered all around the place and little dolls were wearing various designs, it's like a miniature version of the real-life dresses. All of them made from real fabrics. On her drawing board were more designs scattered in chaos but with a seemingly elusive order.

Master Shi and Donna have gravitated towards all these; even Wang Wei is tagging along with Bai Chang and helping her around. It seems this little squirrel already had his tour around this place and is seriously filling the position of an assistant.

'My son betrayed me.'

I can only silently follow their footsteps otherwise they will not hesitate to ditch me; both mother and son are being careless towards me. 'I can only complain in my head, who asked me to be crazy about them?' I smiled internally as Bai Chang remains oblivious to me.

'Finally, I feel like other 90% of husbands feel in their own homes.'

I feel like an abandoned concubine. While in my life my king is my one and only beautiful wife, Bai Chang.

The entire afternoon they talked and talked, finally Master Shi and Donna finalised the last look of this 'Fall Collection'. I am taken by surprised, by how much Bai Chang contributed to all this. It is an eye-opener to see her as a fashion designer than as a computer geek. The girl wearing her nerd glasses sitting behind a computer system is hard to imagine in the present situation.

I really want to walk up to her and then hold her in my arms and fly away somewhere far from all prying eyes. Finally, Masher Shi and Donna left in the late afternoon and finally I have some time with her but with the tag-along, that is, my son.

Seek, while the person responsible to seek them is me. I am elated playing with them. Even Wang Wei's face is all flushed from playing hard.

It is surprising to see him play so much, normal he is surrounded by books and computers. He takes his physical training classes but very unwillingly. While now he is playing willingly it makes me happy.

While resting on a park bench Bai Chang demanded ice-creams and popcorns. I went looking around and got it from a nearby cafe, not too far from the sitting area. Both Bai Chang and Wang Wei have sweet tooth while I am left out. I am not much of a fan of sweet things.

She looked at me and offered me her ice-cream cone. I had a huge bite of it from the side she was licking her ice-cream. As I can't kiss her directly this indirect kiss would be my compensation for today, I rationalised in my mind.

She is upset to see I took such a large bite from her ice-cream but didn't pursue the matter.

I ordered a guard to buy another small bucket of ice-cream on our way home.

'It is better to prepare something to placate her otherwise I may perennially be relegated to the guest room at night.'

At night for dinner, we went to this small cafe in the heart of the capital. It had warm decorations and good food.

They had a variety of sandwiches and Bakery staff. The waiter came to take our orders, I directed him to Bai Chang, and she ordered an 'egg salad sandwich and Chicken Mayo sandwich 'with' Man-chow soup. Wang Wei ordered the same as his mother; this boy is really sticking close to his mother. He should realise that is father needs a place to enter, for him to be related to his mother in long the run.

I can't be the odd one out here, so I ordered same as them while adding along with a plate of vegetable salads. Both Bai Chang and Wang Wei looked at me like a bunch of angry kittens whose tails were stepped on. They look horrible.

We enjoyed our meal, it is harmonious and joyful. Finally, we headed home, while playing all day long Wang Wei fell asleep while Bai Chang was sitting like a statue, afraid to even touch him and to avoid waking him up.

I looked at her helpless reaction, I stretched out my hand "Here, let me"

I took Xiao Wei away from her lap and laid him between us, his head on Bai Chang's lap while his legs towards me. She looked lost. I took her hands and placed them on Wang Wei.

"Just pat him occasionally"

She looks at me like, I am a person from another planet. Then slowly started patting Wang Wei.

It is a long drive to 'Residency Area' from the amusement park as well as the cafe. As we drove on Bai Chang fell asleep with her head nodding off towards the other side window. I took out a blanket and placed it on both mother and son while they sleep on.

I just watched them quietly.

Today, I feel fulfilled.

I feel like I lived.

Seeing my family, I feel blessed and it renewed my determination to keep it together and protected no matter what comes in the future.
