CHAPTER 294
As soon as the call ended, Li Fengjin looked at his mother. She was staring at him with an interesting look on her face. He knew what she was thinking.
"Just say it, sweetheart," he said.
"Do you really love this girl?" Mrs Li asked.
"Of course I do. I love her with every fibre of my being and my life," he said honestly.
"I see," Mrs Li nodded.
There was silence in the kitchen for a while. Only the food on the gas made a sound. Li Fengjin observed his mother. He could tell there was something else she wanted to say but she was not saying it. Just then, Mrs Li spoke up.
"Okay, call your friends over. After that, you should freshen up before changing into comfortable clothes before."
"Alright, mum. But I think I should at least charge my phone first. If I use your number to call them, they would know that you are here. The fun would be ruined. I want to see the surprise on their faces," Li Fengjin said with a mischievous smile on his face.
"Alright then. Go and freshen up first. I will plug in your phone for you," Mrs Li suggested.
"Thanks, sweetheart. You are the best and I love you," Li Fengjin placed a kiss on his mother's forehead before he left the kitchen humming a happy tune.

In a matter of minutes, Li Fengjin was back in the kitchen. He looked fresh in his grey coloured jeans pants and black shirt.
"Ooh! You plan on seducing your girlfriend, hug?" Mrs Li said.
"Why would you say that?" Li Fengjin asked as he picked up a piece of fried beef from the plate on the kitchen counter.
"Do you have to ask me that? Your muscles," Mrs Li pointed out.
"What about my muscles? They look great to me," Li Fengjin said.
He raised his hands halfway so that the muscles on his arm would bulge out. He smirked with obvious pride on his face.
"You showing off. Are planning to make her have a nose bleed?"
"It would be great if that happens. These babies are not here so that they can be hidden behind a piece of fabric or thread," he kissed them alternatively making Mrs Li chuckle.
"Besides, the only one that would really be seduced would be me. My girlfriend is so damn hot and beautiful. I can never get rid of my habit of ogling her whenever I see her. You should see her for yourself, sweetheart..." Li Fengjin rambled on.
"You are crazy about this girl," Mrs Li smiled.
She remembered how her husband would also praise her for her figure and face. He behaved just like Li Fengjin did. Even till old age, he would still tell her how hot she looked.
Sigh. It is as the saying goes, like father like son. Mrs Li shook her head and let out a soft laugh seeing her son in love and how he kept talking about his girl.
"Enough. You will spoil my expectation of her. Is she not coming for dinner? I will see her myself. Stop ruining the suspense," Mrs Li acted as if she had not seen the person they were talking about.
'Hah! I have another surprise for you, my dear boy. Oh, I can't wait to see all their faces,' Mrs Li thought.
"I am going to call the rest. Their houses are close. Are you done with the cooking?" He asked.
"Yes, I am. This one on the gas is the last."
"Great. When they arrive, you need to hide first. Then you can come out after a while," Li Fengjin planned.
"Alright. Keep an eye on the food for me. I want to have a quick shower. Turn it off after five minutes," Mrs Li instructed him as she wiped her hands with a kitchen napkin before taking off her apron.
After Mrs Li left the kitchen, Li Fengjin got his phone. It was charged a little so he switched it back on and called Ye Chaoxiang first.
"Hey, man," Ye Chaoxiang greeted.
"Hey. How are things going with you?"
"Cool. Everything is found smoothly. What about you? How is your life going with your woman?"
"My life has never been better. It is as awesome as eternal bliss," Li Fengjin replied.
"I feel you, bro."
"Yeah. So, are you busy?" Li Fengjin asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"No, not really. I am with Xiaozhi," Ye Chaoxiang turned to Ning Xiaozhi who was preparing to make dinner. "What is the matter?" He asked.
"Nothing. You are with Ning Xiaozhi. That is great. I want you guys to come over for dinner at my place. Are you up for it?"
"Dinner? Who made dinner? You?" Ye Chaoxiang had to ask.
He wanted to be sure if he would go there with a backup food box filled with his girlfriend's food.
"What? You won't come if I said I was the one who cooked dinner?" Li Fengjin asked.
"If that is an option, then why not," Ye Chaoxiang said with an evil smile.
"It is good that you know it is not an option. I ate your burnt noodles when you first started cooking. So get your ass here. Being your girlfriend too. Bai Renxiang would be here too."
"She will?"
"Yes. So be quick about it."
"Alright. We will be there soon," he said before ending the call.
"Darling, who was that?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.
"Li Fengjin. He wants us to have dinner at his place."
"He cooked?"
"We will know when we get there. But I have a feeling he did. Come on, we need to get ready. Your bestie would be there too," Ye Chaoxiang said as he stood up from the couch.
"Okay."
