Playboy CEO Has a Baby

CHAPTER 297

"Look, being a foodie is not bad. But sometimes, a foodie should know when to control his attraction to food. You know your family is envied. You might never know who is out against you."

"I get it. Li Fengjin has the same worry for me. But, you guys should know that I can't be as stupid as being swayed by food. I only get like this with my family and the people I love," Yang Chen said.

"I understand. Li Fengjin understands too. He cares for you a lot. You know that, babe. Now that he told you, you have already taken note of how you would behave with others that are not your family or loved ones. You have taken note to be more alert than ever. So, do not be sad about it," Yi Changying said.

"I know I should not be sad. I'm not sad. I just... I don't know."

"Relax. I know how you feel, trust me. Now, to make you happy, this is what I will say. I love you for you including your foodie side. I love it when you appreciate my cooking and eat my food. It makes me feel loved and useful," Yi Changying added.

"Really?"

p "Really. Now, stop sulking. I want the happy and cute boyfriend of money. Bring him back ASAP," she demanded and Yang Chen chuckled at her expression.

"You are the best girlfriend in the whole world," he said before hugging her.

"You're the best too. Now, we can go and get ready for some dinner. I hope Li Fengjin made something... edible," Yi Changying said.

"Do not let him hear you?"

With that said, the couple went to get prepared to leave for dinner at Li Fengjin's place.

Meanwhile, Mrs Li was done with her bath and had also worn comfortable house clothes. She took deep breaths as she walked out of the room she chose to settle on while she would be staying here.

On getting to the living room, she saw her son standing by the window. He had failed to notice her presence. Mrs Li was curious to know what got his attention or what he was thinking of.

She inched closer to him as quiet as she could be. She looked out the window to see if something interesting was out there. She frown when she saw nothing. Only the night view of the garden.

"What are you thinking about?" She asked.

"Huh?" Li Fengjin turned.

"You seem to be in deep thoughts. What is the problem?"

"Nothing you have to be worried about," Li Fengjin said.

"Are you sure? I can tell you keeping something from me."

"It's... I was just wondering if you would like her," he said.

"Who?"

"My girlfriend. If you do, I wonder if dad will."

"What if we do not like her?" Mrs Li asked.

She wanted to test the waters. When Li Fengjin heard her question, he turned his body a little to look at her. His eyes held a certain determination or coldness in them.

"Listen, mum. I would not wish to have a dispute with you and dad. But, if you guys do not like her, it will be fine. She is mine to like and love anyway. Although, I can see you have something you are not also telling me regarding this," he squinted his eyes at her.

Mrs Li was stunned. She could see that her opinion and that of her husband will not really matter in their son's love life. She understood that his asking was just for formalities. His mind was made up.

"You remind me of your late uncle Yang. He was like this when his family was against his marriage to his wife. But rest assured, your mother is not a judgemental person. But, I would like to ask you something," Mrs Li said.

"What is it?"

"Are you being in a relationship with her because she is the one you slept with that time? Are you doing this because you see it as your responsibility?"

"No. I love her because my heart wants her and it is the same for her," he answered.

"That is great. I would not want my only child to be in a relationship built on responsibility. So, does she know that you were the man that took her-"

"No, she does not. Please, don't tell her. I want her to hear it from me," Li Fengjin quickly said.

"Okay. Sigh. You've grown more mature now. You are a father now. I still can't get over it," Mrs Li said with a smile.

"Sometimes I feel that way too. But when I see that kid, it changes everything. I can't wait for everyone to know about us."

"Me too."

Just then, they heard the sound of a car driving into the compound. The two of them exchange glances.

"They're here. It is time to hide, sweetheart," Li Fengjin said.

"Right. I will be in my room," Mrs Li said before she hurried to her room.

Once Li Fengjin was sure that his mother was gone, he walked to the door and waited for someone to ring the doorbell.

Ding! Dong!

Li Fengjin waited for a few seconds before he opened the door wide. Just as he said, Ye Chaoxiang and Yang Chen stood by the door with Ning Xiaozhi and Yi Changying behind them.

"Welcome," he said with a small smile.

"Thank you." Yang Chen said.

"I hope we did not keep you waiting," Ye Chaoxiang said.

"Not really. Uhh, will you guys come in already?"

"Aren't you going to act like a good host?" Ye Chaoxiang said.

"Should I act as a host?" Li Fengjin asked with a knowing smile.

"No need."

"We are going in."

Ye Chaoxiang and Yang Chen quickly changed their minds as they led the ladies in. Ning Xiaozhi and Yi Changying smiled at the boy's exchange. Funny how just a look or a word from Li Fengjin could make them like that.
