81 Bai Chen’s words

“That’s fine by me.”

How could Bai Chen not be fine when Long Xu In was buying? How could he possibly say no?

“Thank you,” Long Xu In thanked him.

In fact, she was quite nervous about this since Bai Chen was not an ordinary person. She was afraid he would refuse to dine with Tang Zi Cheng and Tang Yien, whom she had brought along.

“There’s no need to thank me.”

Bai Chen did now know why Long Xu In had to thank him, but he answered in an even tone of voice. Meanwhile, he was looking for a way to use the vaccine on Tang Yien to cure her disease, in order to successfully complete his mission.

Tang Zi Cheng and Tang Yien looked at each other, puzzled.

They did not expect a woman like Long Xu In, who had never cared about any man, to speak to Bai Chen that way.

As a matter of fact, they were already secretly surprised to learn that the friend she had come with was a man. But, seeing the way she behaved with and spoke to Bai Chen surprised them even more.

“Uncle Tang, Auntie Tang, shall we order?”

Long Xu In did not seem to notice the look of surprise on the Tang couple’s faces. She only saw them looking at each other.

“Yes. Let’s order.” Tang Yien nodded. Her expression returned to normal.

Tang Zi Cheng did the same, before calling for a waiter to take their orders.

After the waiter had taken their order, Tang Zi Cheng and Tang Yien were speechless. This was because Long Xu In had ordered food for Bai Chen without him even touching the menu.

In the couple’s eyes, Long Xu In was no different from a girlfriend who did everything to please her boyfriend.

“Honey, do you think they’re a couple?” Tang Yien could not help whispering this question to her husband.

Tang Zi Cheng furrowed his brows a little. “It seems that way, but it also seems not to be.”

Tang Yien nodded as if she understood. She had the same thoughts.

Tang Zi Cheng looked seriously at Bai Chen once before sighing mentally.

‘What a pity. He has all the qualities to become my son-in-law. I did not think he would be this close with Xu In.’

It was clear that what he had said five days ago was because he saw that Bai Chen had the potential to become his son-in-law.

The reason he had disguised himself as a beggar was to find a kind-hearted and generous person. This was all because of his daughter’s unique situation; he wanted her to be with a kind and generous man— not some insincere guy like the ones who had approached his daughter in the past, or like the ones he had encountered.

It was unfortunate that he had not yet had the chance to observe Bai Chen more. He had turned out to already be in some unusual relationship with Long Xu In.

Tang Zi Cheng sighed and put Bai Chen out of his mind.

‘This method should work.’ Bai Chen had already thought of a way to complete his mission even before the food was served. It was fortune-telling, just like he had used with Long Xu In.

If he told Tang Yien that she had a horrible disease, she would be shocked and wondered how he knew. Then, he would pretend to tell her fortune and give her the vaccine bottle from the magic medicine set.

Once she had used it, his mission would be complete.

After he had figured out his method, Bai Chen did not hesitate. He looked at Tang Yien before speaking up.

“Auntie Tang, your face is very pale. You must have some kind of incurable disease, correct?”

Hearing his words, Tang Yien was a little surprised. She had not expected him to say that.

It was true that her face had become thin and her skin rather pale.

But when others saw her, they would only think she was sick, not that she had a horrible disease like Bai Chen had said. Thus, she could not help but feel surprised.

Long Xu In was a good example of this. When they had run into each other before, Long Xu In had only asked what kind of sickness she had, not knowing about the disease.

It was not only Tang Yien who was surprised by Bai Chen’s words. Tang Zi Cheng was, too.

His expression changed and his eyes narrowed to the point where they almost made a straight line. He looked at Bai Chen for a while before turning to look at his wife who was sitting next to him.

‘How did he know my wife has an incurable disease?’

After looking at Tang Yien for a moment, Tang Zi Cheng could not help wondering. Because in his eyes, Tang Yien only seemed to have a normal sickness, even though she actually had an incurable disease.

Long Xu In, who was sitting next to Bai Chen, was no less surprised than the Tang couple. She actually stood up and looked intensely at Tang Yien.

“Auntie Yien, is it true that you have an incurable disease?”

It was clear that Bai Chen’s words had affected her greatly.

This was evidently because of the time when he had told her that she would become blind and told her fortune. Thus, she believed wholeheartedly that what he had just told Tang Yien was true. She could not help but stand up.

Because Tang Yien having an incurable disease was a big deal to her. Tang Yien was an aunt that she respected. Moreover, she was a close friend of Long Xu In’s mother.

Tang Yien calmed herself down. She did not know what to do or say.

She took a long look at Long Xu In without a word slipping past her lips.

Clearly, she did not know whether to tell Long Xu In about her incurable disease or not.
