Chapter 625 Can We Talk?

CHAPTER 625

After the whole gunshot of a charade, they all stepped out in the open. Their eyes scanning in the area.

It will not be wise to let their guard down. Not after the sudden ambush. Something might just happen out of the blue.

"Shit! I can't believe I was f*cking lied to," Parker exploded in anger.

"Search the perimeter one more time. After that, we should leave," Li Fengjin ordered as his eyes still scanned everywhere.

"Yes, sir," his men nodded and dispatched immediately.

It was just Li Fengjin, Parker and some others that were left behind. Parker went up to him.

"I'm sorry about the wrong information. I honestly had no idea," he apologise.

"You don't need to apologise, Parker. It is not your fault," Li Fengjin shook it off and sighed.

"What is the matter?" Parker asked observing his face.

"Something is not right. I feel... off," Li Fengjin spoke in a low voice.

"Yeah, no doubt. If Zhixin did not arrive, I would have said he got wind of our plans or he predicted it. That guy is not stable in mind and decision. He does the unexpected," Parker laid out.

"Yeah but then the supposed goods did not arrive. Why do I feel like this is a distraction? Something to throw me off of his trail," Li Fengjin's eye squinted and reverted to normal.

"That can pretty much be it. Maybe he contacted the people and had them deliver the goods somewhere else."

"It can be that. But I get this feeling... You know what forget about it. Let's get this mess

cleaned up and moving," Li Fengjin pushed the uncertain feeling to the back of his mind.

More pressing matters are at hand. Like finding out where the goods went and what Zhixin is up to.

By the time they were done, it was already four o'clock in the morning. Then they hurried back to the mansion.

Parker and Li Fengjin met back in his study after freshening up. Parker did not want to wait another minute before contacting his source.

He wanted to know what the hell was up with the messed up information he was given. And by the time he was done with the phone call, he sighed and looked back unto his chair.

"What did he say?" Li Fengjin asked as he walked away from the window to the chair opposite Parker.

"He swore he was hell sure about what he gave," Parker groaned out and let both his hands take through his hair and slide down his face.

"Then his sources are wrong or Zhixun made it seem as if he will be at the sock waiting for those damned goods," Li Fengjin said and his nose flared a bit.

"Yeah, I know. That only means that Zhixin is very much aware of our plans. One of those bastards must have told him. Motherf*ckers went against my words," Parker's hands came down hard in his deal creating a loud bang sound in the room.

"It is either that or Zhixin has once again proven that he is smart. Or... We also have a mole in our midst," Li Fengjin reasoned.

"The last one has not crossed my mind. But I have a suspect. I will deal with ratting out the snitch on my side."

"I will deal with mine too," Li Fengjin nodded.

"Hmm. But we have got to find out where he is. Things are getting a bit delayed and you have a whole lot of people that may be searching for you by now," Parker reminded him of those he left back at City X.

"Yeah," Li Fengjin sighed.

Just thinking about all that stuff gave him a bit of a headache.

"Well, I have got to get started on searching for that guy's whereabouts somehow so that we can get it all done with and you can return to your woman," Parker said as she drew closer to his desk and got hold of his computer.

"Alright. While you are on that, I need to find out who the mole is," Li Fengjun stood up and left the room.

Back in City X, Bai Renxiang could hardly take her mind off Zhixin. Not in a romantic kind of way cause Li Fengjin has her thoughts all to himself on that.

But as of Zhixin's words and that photo he showed her at the mall, she could not shake off the feeling that something is going on. And it is because of that something that Li Fengjin left home without saying why.

At breakfast, she often gets her thoughts shaken by her family calling her out. And even now that she is dropping off Li Xiaojin at school.

"Mummy, we are here already," Li Xiaojin gently tugged at her shirt.

"Oh, yes. Sorry I spaced out. Let's get you inside, baby," she took his lunch box and school bag.

As soon as they were down, they spotted Ye Lee Ai by the gate. As usual, she was waiting for her little brother so that they could go in together.

It was something they grew fond of doing.

But before they went up to her, Li Xiaojin tapped her lap.

"Yes, baby. What is it?" Bai Renxiang gave him her full attention.

When he gestures for her to get down to his level she did with a smile.

"Now, tell mummy, what you want to say."

"Will daddy be home when I get back from school?" He meekly asked.

Bai Renxiang was stunned. She had no more words to tell him. Of recent, Li Xiaojin has been very insistent on knowing where his father is and wanting to talk to him over the phone, on face time.

She felt bad for not having answers for him. But she should at least have something to say.

"Listen to me, baby. I don't know if your daddy will be home today," she said.

"When will he come back? It has been too long. What business is he taking care of now?" Li Xiaojin whined.

"Maybe it is a very complicated business, my love."

"But I miss him already. Grandpa Fu got me a new gaming set and I want us to play together."

"I know and I miss him too, baby," Bai Renxiang sighed. Then she caressed his hair.

"I will tell you what. When you get back, we will try and give him a call, okay?"

"Really?" Li Xiaojin's eyes shined.

"Really. So go in and be good at school as always, promise?"

"I promise," Li Xiaojin nodded.

"That's my boy. Give mummy a quick goodbye kiss."

"Muah. I love you, mummy," he said.

"I love you too, baby. Let's not keep your big sis waiting now. Let's go."

After leaving him with Ye Lee Ai, she stayed there watching as they happily walked into the school building. As soon as they were out of sight, her smile fell and tears pooled in her eyes.

She quickly walked away and got into the car. She said they will call Li Fengjin when she knew he left his phone behind.

But it is for the best. She can just tell Li Xiaojin will understand that his father is really busy and he alone left because of work not because he is tired of them.

"Drive home, please," she ordered the driver.

"Yes, ma'am."

Time went by and soon the car was pulling up in front of the Li mansion. Bai Renxiang quickly got down and went in.

As she walked into the Li mansion, she was hell-bent on getting some answers to the questions banging at her head.

And fortunately for her, Mr and Mrs Li we're the only ones at home. Her mother, Jiang Meilin and Zhao Fu went out.

She expected it as their love was still blooming.

"Renxiang honey, welcome back," Mrs Li welcomed her.

"Thanks, momma," Bai Renxiang smiled as she walked further into the room.

"Hey, uhm... Momma, dad, can I talk to the both of you?" She asked.

"Yes, of course," Mrs Li nodded.

"You do not really have to ask to talk, remember?" Mr Li raised his brows.

"I perfectly do. But this is different. I want us to talk. But in private. I do not think any other person apart from us three should hear what I want to talk about," Bai Renxiang emphasised her point.

"Oh," they both went and she nodded.

"Alright then. How about we talk?" Mr Li asked.

"That will be great. Shall we go now?"

"Now like right now?" Mrs Li blinked.

"Yes. I can't let it wait any longer. The pressure is getting overwhelming. I just want it off of my chest and head," Bai Renxiang nodded.

The couple exchanged glances and then set their eyes back on her. They has no idea what she wanted to talk bout but they had a deli g that it is very serious.

Bai Renxiang's expression was not light at all.
