Playboy CEO Has a Baby

************

CHAPTER 423

Ye Lee Ai was not wary of everyone except her and Ning Xiaozhi felt sad. Ye Chaoxiang could only sigh inwardly at the situation. Lee Ai was happy about meeting Ning Xiaozhi, maybe she was just super nervous.

Just then, Li Fengjin came in with Bai Xiaojin and Bai Renxiang beside him.

"Chaoxiang, welcome back," Li Fengjin said with a smile.

But before any of them could react, Lee Ai squealed as she ran to hug Bai Renxiang. "Aunt Rennie."

"Oh, sweetie," Bai Renxiang knelt and hugged Lee Ai tightly.

It has been three years since she had seen this little girl. Three long years. It was enough for the both of them to miss each other.

"Aunt Rennie, I missed you so much," Lee Au said.

"I missed you more," she pulled away. "Look at you. You have grown into a very pretty little lady, huh? Wah! My little Ai is so gorgeous," Bai Renxiang praised her making Lee Ai giggle adorably.

"You are even more beautiful aunt Rennie."

"Ahem! I think my lollipop has forgotten her charming uncle," Li Fengjin cleared his throat to gain their attention.

"Hehehe! Why would I forget? Big hug?"

"Big hug... Muah," Li Fengjin hugged and pecked her forehead.

When Kee Ai turned to her side after the hug, her eyes met with Bai Xiaojin's curious ones. She blinked and looked at Li Fengjin. "Uncle Fengjin, is he your baby?" She asked.

"Yes. He is mine and your aunt Rennie's baby," Li Fengjin nodded.

"Wow! He is so cute. What's his name? Can we be friends?"

"Xiaojin is his name... Come on now, Xiaojin. Don't be shy and say hi," Bai Renxiang urged Bai Xiaojin who was holding her hands.

"Hi," he muttered.

Lee Ai looked at Bai Renxiang. "Don't mind him, Lee Ai. He gets like this when he is not familiar with someone," she heard Bai Renxiang say.

"Okay."

"So, what took you so long, bro?" Li Fengjin asked as he took his seat with his brothers.

"Sigh... Yumi was having trouble with something in the company so I had to help her with it since only I, as its CEO is supposed to do it," He Chaoxiang explained.

"So, you have tasted business a little, huh? How was it?" Yang Chen asked with amusement dancing in his eyes?

"Ugh! Don't even get me started Chen. Ot was stressful, annoying and noisy, especially with those board members wanting to have a word with me. And let's not even talked about the employees," Ye Chaoxiang frowned at his unpleasant experience at the company.

It was not the first time he was going there but it was the first time in over ten years. Some of the board members and other heads were already trying to garner his favour and it was too annoying for Ye Chaoxiang.

At a certain point, he wanted to just escape from that place but he could not. Ye Yumi begged him till she was almost in tears to help out. Also, his father did not want to butt into it since he had already stepped down from the CEO position to the chairman of the company.

So he had no choice but to do it. He could not bear to see his sister cry and allow her to deal with that high burden on her own.

"Also, I see the reason why Fengjin hates wearing a tie. With all those things going on, I felt choked," Ye Chaoxiang said.

"Pfft... Hahaha. I thought you would be the perfect gentleman between the three of us. But it turns out you are not," Yang Chen laughed.

"Yeah. Now you would have to take those words you said to me back," Li Fengjin smoked at him.

"What words?" Bai Renxiang asked.

"Ahem! Fengjin, what type of CEO does not wear a tie? You would look irresponsible and unserious. Don't bring your playboy life into work, will you? Now, be a responsible, serious gentleman and put on the damn tie," Li Fengjin mimicked Ye Chaoxiang's lecturing tone and expression.

"Bro, it is easier said than done," he added.

"I practically experienced that. And loosening it would make me look irresponsible so I had to bear," Ye Chaoxiang shook his head. "I take back my words, bro."

"But you can eventually get used to it, right? I mean, brother Wenkai always wears a tie," Yi Changying shrugged.

"Yeah. But it will be a hard task and I am so going to miss my freedom," everyone laughed at Ye Chaoxiang's remark.

"Yeah. And you will soon be saying bye-bye to casual shirts and pants and hello to every workday suit," Li Fengjin reminded him.

"Ah! I forgot about that. Sigh... Well, I can bear with it since you guys can."

"Yeah."

While the boys continued to chat about Ye Chaoxiang's experience in business, Bai Renxiang went to the kitchen where Ning Xiaozhi had silently gone into.

"Hey, bestie," she said in a singsong voice. "What's up?"

"Sigh... Nothing," Ning Xiaozhi replied.

"A sigh before an answer and that downcast expression definitely say something is wrong with you," Bai Renxiang pointed out.

"Sigh... Hey, Rennie. Do you think Lee Ai does not like me?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.

"What? Where is this coming from?"

"Well, it's from how the kid has not spoken a word to me but everyone. It's like she is been wary of me you know?" Ning Xiaozhi bit from the apple in her palm.

"Oh, honey. She is just too shy. Maybe she is like Xiaojin. But she'll come around sometime," Bai Renxiang rubbed her arm.

"You think so? She was nicer to me on the phone than in reality. Do you still think that she's shy or she does not want me at all?" Ning Xiaozhi pouted.

"That's not true, Xiaozhi. Kids love to be around you and want you. You've got that charm."

"Maybe that charm has died down. Ok no! What if she opposes me and Chaoxiang's future union?"
