Life Changing System
178 Contact from Long Xu In
“Students who have already registered, you can get on the bus with your room number.”
Hearing the announcement, Bai Chen looked at Qian Bei and said, “Qian Bei, you can get on the bus. I’ll wait for Li Lin first and will catch up with you later.”
“No problem, big bro. I can totally wait for Li Lin here with you.” Qian Bei carelessly waved his hands.
A moment after that, he suddenly changed his mind. He smiled and laughed mysteriously “Haha. I think maybe I should get on the bus first like you said.”
Qian Bei then quickly walked over to the bus door, while secretly complimenting himself.
‘Haha. That was close. It’s good that I’m clever. Big bro Bai Chen wants me to get on the bus first because he wants to spend some time alone with Li Lin for sure.’
Bai Chen’s eyes followed Qian Bei’s back to the bus door without knowing what Qian Bei was thinking. He frowned a little. He did not understand why Qian Bei had suddenly changed his mind.
However, he did not care much about it. He’d just asked Qian Bei to get on the bus first simply because he wanted to wait for Li Lin here.
It would not be good if Qian Bei was here waiting for her too, as Qian Bei and Li Lin were not particularly close.
No, one could say that they did not know each other at all. Thus, there was no reason why Qian Bei had to wait here for her with him.
Ring... ring... ring...
Bai Chen’s phone rang while he was waiting for Li Lin. He put his hand into his pants pocket and took out his iPhone[OL1] .
He frowned a little when he saw the number of the person who was calling.
It was none other than Long Xu In. It had been almost a week since he had seen her. He did not even contact her at all.
He had not seen or contacted her again since he’d left the Long family’s vacation home with Xu Xue Ning last week.
Now, she’d suddenly called. How could he not knit his brows with wonder?
He was a little surprised that she’d called. Even so, he picked up the phone and put it to his ear.
“Hello.”
“Hi.” Long Xu In’s voice sounded from the other end of the line into Bai Chen’s ear.
“Hey Xu In, what is it you’re calling about?” he asked.
“N... Nothing. I just want to let you know that I’ll be going back to Xing Zhou city soon.”
Long Xu In’s voice was trembling a little. She was obviously excited and nervous.
How could she not be? She was talking to the man she had fallen in love with again after so many days.
“My grandfather’s condition is a lot better now, so I can go back to Xing Zhou city this weekend at the latest,” she continued. Her voice was very gentle.
Bai Chen finally understood why she’d called. She just wanted to tell him that she would be returning to Xing Zhou city from Dong Hai island, the place where her family’s vacation home was located.
The reason why she had not contacted him for days or come back to Xing Zhou city was probably that she had had to take care of her grandfather, Long Wu Lei.
It was not anything surprising. Even though his condition had already been cured with the vaccine from the magic medicine set, he still needed a lot more time to be fully recovered and to be able to walk again.
This was why Long Xu In had had to stay and take care of her grandfather for a while with her relatives. It was the right thing to do anyway.
Bai Chen could not help but smile a little when he thought of Long Xu In’s filial piety towards her grandfather.
“You’ll be back this weekend?” he asked.
“Yes,” Long Xu In answered. “I’ll be back this weekend for sure. And Bai Chen, I hope you’ll give me a chance to treat you to a meal as thanks for helping my grandfather.”
Even though Bai Chen had told her that it was his way of repaying his debt to her, Long Xu In still felt uncomfortable if she did not get to compensate him in some way. She was well aware of how expensive that vaccine was.
“No problem. I’ve been wanting to go eat at your house again anyway. The food’s good,” Bai Chen said. There was a small smile at the corners of lips as usual.
He could not help but think about that lavish and tasty meal he’d had at her house.
He would not reject the offer for sure.
“Really?” Long Xu In answered with a happy tone. She’d actually thought Bai Chen would refuse.
“Certainly.” Bai Chen nodded without hesitation.
“Good then. I’ll see you later.” Long Xu In smiled happily and hung up the phone.
Bai Chen then put his phone back into his pants pocket. He looked around for Li Lin.
He did not see her. There were only other third-year high schoolers who were getting onto their buses.
“Why is Li Lin not here yet?” Bai Chen could not help but frown.
Suddenly, a cute voice sounded from behind him.
“Bai Chen!”
It was none other than Li Lin.
Bai Chen quickly turned to look behind him. Li Lin’s cute face was soon reflected in his eyes.
She wore tight jeans and a blue t-shirt. Her shoulder-length hair fluttered as she walked towards him.
Her simple outfit did not decrease her doll-like cuteness at all. Her gleamingly fair and smooth hands were dragging her luggage.
A moment later, she stopped in front of Bai Chen. She beamed adorably at him. “You’ve arrived quite early.”
“What about you? Why are you so late?” Bai Chen smiled back. His heart was always full of happiness every time he saw Li Lin. For him, her smile was very beautiful. It looked like his love for her was increasing every day.
“Who said I was late? I arrived before you. I just went to the ladies’ room.” Li Lin wrinkled her nose with dissatisfaction at Bai Chen accusing her of being late.
“I see. Does that mean you’ve already registered?” Bai Chen was still smiling. He could not believe that Li Lin had arrived before him and had only gone to the ladies’ room when he’d shown up.
“I already registered. I take it you did, too?” Li Lin asked.
Bai Chen nodded. “Yeah. Let’s get on the bus then.”
“Okay,” Li Lin agreed.
