CHAPTER 311

"Oh! My baby. I missed you so much," Bai Renxiang said.

"I missed you too. You closed early today," Bai Xiaojin said.

"I left work because I could not bear to wait until closing. So here I am."

"Hehehe! Are we going to go out then? I want ice cream."

"Ice cream? Hmm... Alright, my love. We will go and get ice cream."

"Good afternoon, aunty," Gu Mingzhe greeted.

"Good afternoon, dear. How are you?" Bai Renxiang asked as she hugged him.

"I am fine."

"Your mother is not here yet?"

"She is here. She went to ask my teacher something. She will be back soon," Gu Mingzhe said.

"Oh, alright."

After a few minutes, Mrs Gu walked in their direction. They changed pleasantries before parting ways.

Just as Bai Xiaojin requested, they went to get ice cream. While they were at the ice cream parlour, the cloud suddenly turned dark. The rain started drizzling and then it began to fall heavily.

It was unexpected. From where they sat, they could see people running helter-skelter.

"Mummy, it is raining," Bai Xiaojin said excitedly.

"I can see that, my love. That means we need to get going," Bai Renxiang said.

"But why? I just started eating my ice cream. Can we not wait a little bit longer?"

"No, my love. Traffic might be terrible if we do not leave early. Besides, the rain looks heavy. We can't be stocked here. What if takes time to stop?" Bai Renxiang said.

"That is true."

"Pack up so that we can leave."

It was just like Bai Renxiang thought. The traffic was terrible. People were rushing from work to their various homes. Bai Renxiang sighed.

"Is the traffic that bad, mummy?" Bai Xiaojin asked.

He was looking up at the dark raining clouds through the tinted window of the car.

"Yea, my love. It is."

"Does that mean that we will not go home today? Are we going to sleep in the car?"

"Of course not. We will go home. But it will be late."

"Ok. Can I use your phone then?" Bai Xiaojin turned to ask.

"Sure. Here you go."

"Thank you."

The traffic seemed stiff. No car was moving. Bai Renxiang sighed. She picked up one of the files she brought from work. She could kill time with all this traffic.

An hour had passed and they had not gone far. Bai Xiaojin had even fallen asleep. Bsi Renxiang took her phone from his chest and placed it inside her purse.

She kept the files in the front seat. Them she carried Bai Xiaojin on her lap. Bai Renxiang gently places his head on her chest and then wrapped her arms around him.

Bai Xiaojin snuggled closer. Bai Renxiang frowned when she felt his cold hands in her warm ones. She quickly took off her red and black checkered trench coat and covered it with him.

Bai Renxiang shivered slightly. The car was cold. She had not felt it because of the coat. But why did Bai Xiaojin not say anything?

"Turn on the heater," she ordered the driver.

"Yes, boss."

"Hey. Uh, Xin," Bai Renxiang called the driver.

"Yes, boss," driver Xin looked at tye rare view mirror.

"Do you know of any route away for this traffic?"

"Yes, boss. But there might also be traffic there," driver Xin answered.

"Will it be quicker to get home from there?"

"Yes, it will."

"Try it then."

"Yes, boss."

The driver managed to manoeuvre the car to the route he knew of. Just like he had said, there was also traffic there. But it was not as right as the one on the previous road.

Bai Renxiang relaxed a little. Their car moved for about ten minutes. All of a sudden, the car jerked harshly. Bai Renxiang quickly held onto something before the hit her head while also protecting Bai Xiaojin.

"What is the problem?" Bai Renxiang asked.

"I do not know, boss."

VROOM! VROOM!

The car refused to move.

"Please hold on, boss. I will go and see what the problem is," driver Xin said.

Bai Renxiang just nodded her head and the driver opened the door and left. After a while, he came back and started the car again. This time it moved.

"What is the situation?" Bai Renxiang asked.

"One of the wheels was stuck in the mud."

"Oh, alright."

It did not take another ten minutes before the car stopped again. Bai Renxiang was puzzled.

"What is the problem now?"

"I am not sure, boss."

Driver Xin was having it hard. He was confused. Why would the car just stop? There was enough fuel in it. So what happened? He alighted the car again to check things out.

"Damn it. The engine is bad. How could this happen? Shit," Driver Xin cussed.

Just as he was contemplating what to do, he heard the car don't close. Bai Renxiang came out.

"What is the matter?"

"B-Boss, what are you doing outside the car? The rain has not reduced yet," driver Xin said.

"Answer me," Bai Renxiang ignored his question.

"I think the engine is bad," he answered.

"What? How is that possible?"

"I not so sure. It seems tampered with. But rest assured, I will try to fix it," he said.

"Sigh. Why does this have to happen now? Who did this?" She murmured.

It was a given that their car was at the edges of the road. It would look like they parked. So no car was affected by this. They all passed swiftly.

By this time, she was almost drenched in the rain. It had been sunny all the while, so she had no umbrella with her.

"Boss, please go and wait in the car. What if you catch a cold?"

"I will not catch a cold. Carry on with what you are doing."

'Wuu wuu. Why does the boss have to be so stubborn? The elder master will skin me alive if he knows that I allowed his granddaughter to stand in the rain. Please just listen to me, boss.'
