CHAPTER 598
The time for the charity event drew close. But so did old man Jiang\'s 80th birthday. It is going to be a big celebration.
Bai Renxiang decided to do a little shopping for a birthday present. She might as well just pick a suitable dress to wear, right? After all, she was the only one that did not have what to wear.
She literally spent more than glue looking for something suitable as a birthday present for her old man. But nothing looked worthy.
"Sigh. There is nothing on the men\'s section that grandpa doesn\'t have. I have spent so much time," Bai Renxiang sighed to herself.
"Is there anything wrong ladyboss?" One of the female bodyguards asked.
Of course they are here with her. Li Fengjin would not have it any other way.
Bai Renxiang turned to her(the female bodyguard) with a smile. "Oh it\'s nothing, Lee. Let\'s move to the women\'s section."
Lee, the female bodyguard that asked nodded. She stepped aside for Bai Renxiang as the latter lead the way. Then they followed suit.
Soon, they arrived at the game section, particularly the clothing section. A female staff stepped up to assist Bai Renxiang in whatever she may want.
"Good morning, Mrs Li. How may I be of your service today?" The staff asked in a polite and professional tone.
Although it looks like she is a fangirl finally meeting her idol. Her wide smile said it all. Bai Renxiang smiled back.
"Hi, good morning. I want a dress for an occasion," Bai Renxiang told.
"Okay. What type of location? Is it a formal dinner? Or a wedding banquet? A birhtday celebration or an anniversary?" The staff asked.
"It\'s a birthday celebration."
"Oh, alright. Then follow me. I know just the section that will suit the occasion and your liking."
Saying that, the staff lead them to another different section on a different floor, in fact. And through to her words the dresses there were to Bai Renxiang\'s liking.
"This section houses our finest dresses for the occasion you are going for. I could pick out some for you to try... That is if you like," the staff quickly added.
Bai Renxiang smiled and nodded. "If it will not inconvenience you, please help me pick."
"It most definitely would not. It is an honour to choose a dress for you, Mrs Li," the file almost yelped in excitement.
"Ahem. I will get started immediately," she scurried off.
Bai Renxiang chuckled lightly. She could not help but think that the staff was cute. She reminded her of how Xia Xinyi could be at times.
While the staff was busy fishing for dresses, Bai Renxiang did not let only her eyes do the scanning. She also checked for anything she felt suitable.
After a while of doing that, the staff emerged with a heap full of clothes while Bai Renxiang held unto two. Never the less, she entered the changing room with everything.
Each time she came out, the staff would gasp in awe. Even her bodyguards, though not expressing, their eyes held admiration.
"Hmm. This one is too... Tacky."
"No, this material is a bit itchy."
"This dress is too exposed."
"Ah! This one looks good on you, Mrs Li," the staff complimented.
"You think so?" Bai Renxiang asked with raised brows.
Her eyes moved down to the dress. It was a purple satin mermaid dress. It had little stones highlighting the breast cup and waist line.
"It would have been on the option. But it hugs too much and it looks as if my boobs are about to pop out of the dress," Bai Renxiang\'s gave her own point of view.
"That is true," the staff nodded after her words.
Bai Renxiang went back in and keep coming out with different dresses. But they all had a disadvantage or something she doesn\'t feel comfortable with.
The staff brought in more dresses for her to try out. The ones she could not make a decision in, she asked her bodyguards for their thoughts.
But they were rather sensed like the male bodyguards she had. With a resigned sigh, she took put her phone from her purse and called someone.
The call did not get to ring the second time when a baritone voice rang into her ears.
"Hey, my love. Good morning,"
"Good morning, honey. Did I disturb your work?" Bai Renxiang asked.
"No. it\'s my work that is disturbing me from being with you, love."
Bai Renxiang blushed a bit. "Okay. I really need your help with something. So I\'m switching to video call. That\'s alright with you, right?"
"Yes. Anything to make me see your gorgeous face."
"Hmm. Give me a sec," she said before switching the call over to video call.
She then asked Lee to help her hold her phone before taking a few steps backwards.
"Oh, wow! That is a lovely dress," was the first thing Li Fengjin said as soon as he saw her.
"Really? You think it will be okay to wear this for the birthday celebration?"
"Of course. You look beautiful in anything you wear though," he replied.
"That is not the answer I want. Sigh. Let me change."
Bai Renxiang changed into another dress. This one took all their breaths away. It was a silver shimmering piece. The dress was handless and it hugged and accentuated all her curves perfectly and flowed free just below her hips.
"WOAH!"
"How is it?" she asked as her eyes fell in everyone there.
"It is simply exquisite. I mean you look like a moon goddess," Li Fengjin did not fail to give her butterflies with his sweet words.
"Thank you. I think it\'s great too but–"
"But?"
"Yeah. It\'s perfect but not for the occasion. I mean it is grandma\'s birthday not mine. I can\'t outshine him in his big day," she reasoned.
"But you know that old man will not think like that, right?"
"I know he won\'t. However, that fat dies not mean I should do so. I will take this one but I wear it for the charity event, hmm?"
"Okay, love. Your decision goes," Li Fengjin agreed with her.
Bai Renxiang ended up picking another fabulous dress for the birthday celebration. She wanted to have a shoe and jewellery before calling it a day but Li Fengjin stopped her.
"You already went shopping for a dress without me. Let hubby take you on accessories shopping, okay?" He said.
"Alright. Don\'t sulk. Come and meet me at the mall. Then we can have lunch before going for jewellery and shoes shopping," Bai Renxiang agreed as she headed to pay for the dresses she chose.
Standing up, Li Fengjin took his coat and wallet before heading out of his office. "That\'s more like it. I will meet you there in half an hour. Pick a table for us while you wait."
"Alright. Don\'t let me wait for too long."
"I won\'t."
"Bye, hubby. Kisses," Bai Renxiang said before she abou ended the call.
She bit down on her lip to contain her wide smile as she blushed. Just talking to him in the phone was enough to turn her mood into a brighter one.
Meanwhile, Li Fengjin sighed in content. He wondered what he did for God to bless him with a life partner as Bai Renxiang. Maybe he have saved the world in his previous life.
That must explain why.
"Uh, boss were are you going?" Qing Yexuan asked.
"What?"
"Uhm, you have a meeting with the executive team in five minutes time," his assistant reminded him.
"Well, reschedule it for tomorrow morning or you handle it." Li Fengjin continued in his steps.
Qing Yexuan rushed after him. "B-But boss, you–"
"Yexuan, I have a lunch date with my beautiful wife," Li Fengjin stopped and abruptly turned around. "I can\'t miss it even if the world were to fall apart. Besides, I haven\'t seen her all day."
Qing Yexuan was speechless. It was not even lunch time yet and his boss spoke as if it is the closing hours of work. What was he expecting anyway.
They all knew Li Fengjin was totally smitten by his wife. So with a heavy sigh, Qing Yexuan nodded. It is not as if he can stop him Even if Li Fengjin had no date with his wife.
"Alright. I will handle the meeting, boss."
"Better. If you do well, I might get you a long list of nice ladies from good families to date. You need a woman to brighten up your life and fill it with fun," Li Fengjin said before stepping into the he elevator.
Qing Yexuan was dumbfounded he could not move or react in time.
\'What does boss mean by that? Is he trying to say that my life is dull and boring?\' he thought.
Just then he felt a pat on his shoulder.
"Don\'t worry, Yexuan. The ladies boss will get you will be nice. You\'ll see."
