CHAPTER 402

Mrs An was stunned by the beauty of the customer that came in. The woman was dressed in a stylish navy blue trench coat and matching pants, a white button-down shirt with white heels for a good combo.

Her black waist-length hair was let to fall freely on her shoulders and back in slight curls. With one look, Mrs An knew that this woman was sophisticated and wealthy.

"Uhm, excuse me. This is An\'s Bakery, right?" Bai Renxiang asked the dazed woman.

"Huh? Oh... Yes, yes. This is... This is An\'s Bakery, ma\'am. What would you like to–"

"Mummy!" Bai Xiaojin\'s voice interrupted her question.

"Oh, my baby," Bai Renxiang squatted as she opened her arms for her sin to jump into her embrace.

She hugged Bai Xiaojin tight and heaved a deep sigh of relief. Her racing heart began to reduce its pace little by little. An Daiyu and Mrs An just watched the mother and son due reunite like they have been apart for ages.

After what seemed like forever, they finally pulled away from each other. But Bai Renxiang still held Bai Xiaojin close to her.

"Mummy I–"

"Ssh," she hushed him. "My love, I am very sorry for coming... No. I got too engrossed in work that I forgot about asking the driver if he had taken you home from school. I should have come for you by myself. Mummy is very sorry for that. It will not happen again, I promise. Please, forgive me, okay?"

"I was not mad at you, mummy. I was just worried that something bad happened to you. But you okay. Also, you did not forget me. If you did, then you would not have sent the driver," Bai Xiaojin said.

"Oh, you are so sweet and understanding. Come here," Bai Renxiang pulled him in for another hug.

"Mummy, are you not going to say hello to my friend?"

"Oh, yes. How could I not?" She stood up and looked at Mrs An and An Daiyu. "Thank you for bringing my son with you and taking care of him. I am Bai Renxiang, by the way."

"I am Mrs An and this is my daughter An Daiyu. It\'s nice to meet you, ma\'am," Mrs An accepted Bai Renxiang\'s hand for a handshake.

"Hi, cutie pie. How are you?" Bai Renxiang light pinched An Daiyu\'s cheek.

"I am fine. Pretty aunty it was Bai Xiaojin who helped me at school. We should be the ones thanking you. So thank you," An Daiyu said.

"Ah! Is that so? Well, then, we are equal," Baj Renxiang smiled at her.

"Mummy, I ate a slice of strawberry cake that An Daiyu gave me," Bai Xiaojin told her.

"Oh, really?"

"Really. I liked it so I want the full cake. Can you buy it for me?"

"I will. Mrs An, please, I will be getting the strawberry cake."

"Right away, ma\'am. Give me a minute to wrap it up for you. Please, excuse me," Mrs An said before she left.

In a few minutes, Mrs An came with the strawberry cake and Bai Renxiang paid for it along with the slice that Bai Xiaojin ate. Just then, the driver came into the bakery and apologized for his delay.

He explained to them that he had taken the car for repairs before going to Bai Xiaojin\'s school. But he met heavy traffic on his way back. By the time he got there, Bai Xiaojin was not in school and then, Bai Renxiang sent him to their new location.

"It is alright, Xin. Help us take these to the car," she passed him Bai Xiaojin\'s bag and lunchbox along with the cake. "We will be with you in a few minutes."

"Yes, boss."

"Mrs An thank you once again for everything. Helping a kid you just met today is wonderful. I can\'t express my thanks enough. That is why I am leaving my business card with you," Bai Renxiang took out a small card.

"Oh, no ma\'am. I can\'t... I can\'t take that at all. I just did what any person would do for their child\'s friend. It is nothing more and nothing less. I don\'t want to be a bother to you," Mrs An shook her head as she politely rejected the card.

Bai Renxiang smiled. She took Mrs An\'s hand and placed the business card in it before closing it with her palm. "Not every parent would do that. Also, my son was comfortable with you and your daughter. If anyone was being a bother it is me and my son. So, please, take it. I insist. It is the least I could do to show my gratitude."

"I... But we don\'t even know each–"

"It is not every day I get to meet people as generous and kind-hearted as you are. Let me do this for you even if we find know each other. But for the sake of our children\'s friendship, please accept it," Bai Renxiang said.

"Sigh. I... Very well, then. Thank you so much."

"Hmm. Xiaojin, shall we go?"

"Yes. An Daiyu, I will see you in school tomorrow. Bye Bye," he waves.

"Bye, Bai Xiaojin."

After they left, Mrs An stared at the business card in her hands. She was even more dazed than when Bai Renxiang first came into her shop.

"Mama, what is wrong? Why are looking at the card like that?" An Daiyu asked.

"Oh nothing, my dear. It is just that the name of this company reminds me of someone," Mes An answered.

"Huh? Who? What is the name of the company?" An Daiyu became curious.

"It is Jiang Corporation. It reminds me of the kind lady and her husband that helped us clear our debts and get this building."

There was a smile on Mrs An\'s face as she remembered that day. They just happened to pass by and they willingly helped them. She and her husband swore to be forever grateful to that kind couple.
