Playboy CEO Has a Baby

CHAPTER 466

After Bai Ming had managed to make her mother drop the marriage talk, they proceeded to talk about the company, Bai Jewelries.

"If we had not been invited to this wedding, I doubt if I would have been able to get so many companies to invest in ours," Bai Ming said in an exasperated sigh.

"That is true. It is also one of the reasons why your father was so angry at that time. That and the fact that Renxiang did not give him any face," Lin Ying agreed.

"Face or no face. I don't want her back into our family and stealing what is mine."

"Oh, do not worry about her coming back to our family. Your grandmother would not stand for it and Renxiang has already said she does not want the Bai family name," Lin Ying let out a chuckle.

"She does not want the Bai family name but she wants the company that is established in the name. She is as stupid as ever," Bai Ming scoffed before standing up.

Lin Ying laughed at that fact. She, herself found it stupid that Bai Renxiang wants the company back. Bai Ming took the hotel phone to make a call to the reception.

She ordered a bottle of wine to be brought to the room. As soon as she pace the phone down, Lin Ying brought to a topic.

"Ming'er, how about the shares your grandmother said she would give to you? Has there been any news from her or her lawyer?" She asked.

Remembering that promise that grandma Bai had made to her, Bai Ming could only sigh.

"There has still been no response from her, mum."

Since that day that she went over to the Bai ancestral mansion, grandma Bai has still not called her to form her of the shares or to come over to sign any papers or discuss with the lawyer.

And she(Bai Ming) is depending on that shares to gain more of the board members to her side.

"Hmm. I wonder what is taking her so long?" Lin Ying pondered over the thought.

"I do too. But grandma, has given her words and she keeps assuring me to be patient with her," Bau Ming said.

"That is the problem, dear. We can't only be relying on words at this time. We need things to start falling in our favour very very soon," Lin Ying slammed her first in her palm repeatedly.

"I know that very well, mum. You dint have to tell me every time. It is hist that, I don't want to seem persistent. Or have you forgotten that grandpa is still alive?"

Lin Ying opened her mouth to speak but no words fell out. She sighed and bit the clips in thinking. Just then, they heard a knock on the door.

"That must be my order. I will go and get it," Bai Ming quickly went to the door.

After a while, a young man dressed in white and black pushed in a trolley. On it was a small stylish metal bucket filled with ice cubes and a bottle of wine in the middle.

Beside the bucket were two wine glasses. Not only that, Bai Ming had ordered a meal to follow the wine. After having the young man serve them wine and arranged the meal on the table on the balcony of the hotel, she excused him.

Bai Ming picked up the two wine glasses and gave one to Lin Ying who was already seated. Taking her sit, Bai Ming smiled.

"Mum, do not think too much about it. I will talk to grandma and see what she would tell me about the shares, okay? Just don't think too much about the time that we are here in City S. We should take this as our vacation."

"I hear you, honey."

The two ladies basked in the sweet taste of the wine and the food they are as they chatted about all other trivial things. Laughter soon filled the air around them.

Meanwhile, as the mother and daughter pair were enjoying themselves, in a restaurant far from the hotel sat two individuals. An elderly man and a woman in her mid-forties.

The both of them sat on the opposite sides of the table separating them. On the table were two cups of hot tea with steam oozing out of the cups.

The elderly man sat with his face upward but his eyes were fixed on his cup of tea. As for the woman, she just sat there with an expression on her face that was hard to read as she stared at the man.

"If you called me here to just watch you stare at your cup of tea then, I will have to excuse myself," the woman said.

Just as she attempted to stand up from the chair, the elderly man quickly held her hand that was on the table.

"Merlin, please hold on."

Yep. The woman was none other than the mother of the winter bride, Jiang Meilin. Starting down at the old hand holding hers to stop her from leaving, she frowned.

"What do you want, elder Bai?" She asked.

Grandpa Bai gulped seeing her emotionless gaze move from his hand to his face. He quickly retracted his hand.

"I am sorry for that. P-Please, sit down. I just want to have a little chat," he said.

"I am a busy person now, Elder Bai. I don't have time to have a 'little chat' right now," Jiang Meilin spoke with no warmth in her words.

"I will not waste your time. Please," grandpa Bai pleaded.

Not wanting to draw too much attention to herself and to give the old man a little have, Jiang Meilin sighed and sat back down.

She did not say another word but her expression and eyes were enough to speak to the old man. Understanding everything without asking, grandpa Bai gulped again.

Being face to face with his ex-daughter-in-law whom his family had wronged was a difficult task for the old man. He had asked for a meeting without even sorting out his thoughts.

Quickly thinking of something to say, he smiled and asked, "How have you been?"

"I am fine as you have seen since you came to my daughter's wedding," Jiang Meilin answered with a straight face.

"I see," grandpa Bai nodded.

"Is that what you called here for? To ask how I have been after everything your family did to me? Are you people planning to do more?" Jiang Meilin questioned with raised brows.

"O-Of course not. We would never do that, "grandma Bai quickly spike.

"Your wife and daughter-in-law do not seem to fall under that we," she said.

Jiang Meilin made sure that there was enough emphasis on the 'daughter-in-law' in her words. There was also a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

"They... I..." Grandma Bai stuttered as he could not find any words to retort hers.

p Seeing the guilty expression on his face, Jiang Meilin felt a little bit satisfied inside. She leans back into the chair and folded her hands.

"I can see that you asked me to come here without preparing for my words," she said.

"Sigh... Listen, Meilin. I am–"

"Don't say my name. I am not your daughter-in-law anymore," Jiang Meilin quickly caught him off.

"Me– I mean, Ms Jiang. I wanted to make things right with you now that we are all in the same place," grandma Bai said.

"So if my daughter had not decided to invite you and your family to her wedding, you would have never found time to come and make things right, huh?"

"No. It is not like that. You see I have been–"

"Busy?" She interrupted again.

It was like Jiang Meilin handmade up her mind not to give grandma Bai a chance to make a full sentence as she kept cutting him off. Well, it was just her making him have a taste of his and his family's medicine.

"It is not about being busy," grandma Bai spoke up after staying silent dir a few seconds.

"Of course, it is not about being busy. It is not like you are running the company. It's just that you guys have been busy living off mine and my daughter's money," Jiang Meilin sneered.

"I am really sorry about everything that happened in the past. I swear that I have been living in guilt since you left. It was even worst when Guiren chased Renxiang out. I should have been the one to be reasonable and stop things from going south. I should have helped you and listened to you when you were accused of cheating," grandpa Bai said all these words with bitterness in his heart.

"Yes. That is it. You should have but you did not. You remained quiet and sat back while everything did go downhill not only for me but for my daughter as well. You did nothing."
