Q:
What does runnin' round? It is like a slang? mean?
A:
runnin' = running
runnin' is pronounced with a harder n sound at the end of the word.
Omitted letters are commonly replaced with an apostrophe. Examples: walkin', can't, hadn't. This is commonly used with improper English words to mimick how it sounds when pronounced.
While "round" could work in this usage, I would guess 'round (around = 'round) is what was actually meant.
'round = around
We walked 'round the store.
The cattle wandered 'round the pasture.
round = go around, circumnavigate
Examples:
He rounded (went around) the corner.
The ship rounded (circumnavigated) the cape.
To contrast these:
Walking 'round the store = walking throughout the store (such as when shopping) OR walking around the exterior of the store (like a security guard on patrol might)
Walking round the store = the store was in your path so you had to go around it to continue on your way
So, "runnin' 'round" = "running around."
