CHAPTER 155

"Have you forgotten? Bai Xiaojin does not have a father. So he can never get his own toy," the third boy said and the rest laughed at him.

"You know for children, you all have a very bad mouth," a deep authoritative voice rang out from behind Bai Xiaojin.

The boys stopped laughing immediately as they felt frightened by the man standing behind Bai Xiaojin. Bai Xiaojin slowly turned his head to see the sour e of that cold voice.

"Do you intend to sit on the floor all day long?" Li Fengjin asked Bai Xiaojin.

Hearing his question, Bai Xiaojin quickly stood up and dust the dirt off of his clothes. His mummy will surely question him if she sees dirt on his clothes.

He looked up at the man in front of him. His royal blue suit, his black shoes, his wristwatch and his dark gold rimmed shade. Everything about this man screamed money and power. He looked awesome and cool and not to forget...scary.

"Woah! He is cool."

"And scary with that shade."

"This man looks very rich."

"Wow. He more handsome than my own dad." All four boys whispered something about Li Fengjin. Listening to their comments made Bai Xiaojin know that they were all in the same page apart from the last one because he did not even know if he has a father.

"If you do not want your precious little toy car to get smashed, think twice before making trouble for this kid, understand?" He warned.

"Yes sir," they said in unison.

"Good. Now scram!"

The four boys took to their heels and ran as far as their tiny legs could take them away from Bai Xiaojin and the scary cool man. Bai Xiaojin was still in daze as he stared at Li Fengjin. Li Fengjin looked down at the boy and sighed.

"Follow me," he spat out those two words and turned to leave. Without even thinking, Bai Xiaojin carried his lunchbox and followed the man quickly. They walked until Li Fengjin's car. Li Fengjin took the toy he asked Wang Tingxiao to buy earlier, squatted and stretched it to Bai Xiaojin.

Bai Xiaojin was surprised yet confused at his actions. He raised his head to meet the gaze of the man. He was shocked. The man had removed his glasses, revealing his blue eyes. For a moment there, Bai Xiaojin was completely lost.

"Ahem. Take it," Li Fengjin said to bring the stunned kid back to his senses. Bai Xiaojin returned his gaze back to the white bag the man held towards him. He stretched his free hand to collect the bag but then he paused and immediately retracted his hand to his side. He shook his head.

"Mummy said not to take anything from strangers," he said.

Li Fengjin's face darkened a little before returning back to its neutrality. He could understand the situation here. Of courses Ms Bai would teach her son to wary of strangers. His mother's taught him too so that he could at least protect himself from any dangerous person. But then again, there was no stranger or dangerous person that would dare to approach him when he was little.

Who would want to harm the son of a Li? Except that person has two heads and ate a lion's heart, that is what would make the person 'think' of get within three meters from him. All hell would break loose on that person if he manages to succeed.

Wang Tingxiao that had lowered his window could not help but almost laugh out loud at the kids words. What was his boss thinking? Only a child that has not been taught this simple action would accept a gift from someone they have never seen in their entire life. Sigh. Poor Li Fengjin. How is he going to coax the kid to accept the gift?

Bai Xiaojin had noticed the quick flicker of emotions in Li Fengjin's eyes. He felt frightened at first but he shook that fear away. Only weak kids get scared and he is not weak.

"I am sorry Mister. But I can't accept... that," he added.

Li Fengjin smiled. "Even if that stranger prevented four troublesome boys from hurting you," he said.

"Thank you for helping me mister," Bai Xiaojin bowed his head and was about to leave when Li Fengjin spoke up again.

"I know you liked that boy's toy car. I heard what they said about you not being able to get your own toy car... ever."

Bai Xiaojin stopped on his tracks and turned back to Li Fengjin.

"If I really wanted to cause you any harm, I would have done so the very minute you stepped out if the school gate," he added.

Bai Xiaojin puffed his cheeks at Li Fengjin's words. True. How could he have been so stupid to follow this scary man out if the school? What was he thinking? Ah sorry. I forgot. He did not even think before he followed Li Fengjin.

"So have it. I mean no harm," he assured him.

Bai Xiaojin fought an internal battle within himself. This man was nice enjoy to ward off those boys from earlier and he would have farmed him if he wanted to but he did not. Bai Xiaojin also did not feel any threat from the man.

After much thought, he walked back to Li Fengjin and accepted the bag. He took out the thing that was in the bag and gasped. He looked back at Li Fengjin with wide eyes.

"This is the latest limited edition toy car from Y-Surf Games. There are very few on sales. It is every kids dream car. Well all kids except girls though," he ranted at the sight of the toy car. How cool can this man be? Li Fengjin almost burst out laughing from seeing Bai Xiaojin's reaction. But to maintain his cool stern or rather scary image he had put up.

"Thank you very much mister."
