Life Changing System

Chapter 153 The Conversation



“Elder Chen Bai, please wait.”

Bai Chen could not help but stop walking after hearing Xu Xue Ning’s words. He looked back at her.

Today, her hair seemed to be covering her beautiful face well enough that it did not make his heart race like when it was not.

“What is it?” he asked her with a calm voice, thinking that she should not be saying things like that in such a public place. People could easily assume she was crazy.

“Please talk normally. You can just call me Bai Chen.”

He said this out of concern. He was not an Elder in the first place anyway.

He was merely a normal person. The reason why he did not tell her the truth was because he did not want to disappoint her, and it might also bring some trouble to him.

That was why he still kept the truth to himself.

“I... understand what you mean. I’ll do as you suggest,” Xu Xue Ning said. She did not explain that she spoke the language of the cultivators with him because no one else was around.

The reason for not explaining was easy. She thought Bai Chen would have guessed it anyway. He was only saying that because he was concerned about her.

Xu Xue Ning felt gratitude in her heart and thought, ‘As expected of Elder Chen Bai. He is so cautious.’

“So, what is it?”

Bai Chen did not want to waste time in the hospital any longer, even though a beautiful woman was standing in front of him.

It was true that Xu Xue Ning was the most beautiful woman that he had ever met in his life, and he felt quite flustered because of her.

However, he already had Li Lin in his heart, and he knew that Xu Xue Ning lived in a different world, like Long Xu In did. Thus, he did not think of her as anything more than a friend.

Xu Xue Ning could not help but go silent when she heard Bai Chen’s question. Actually, she did not have anything to say to him.

The reason why she had run out of the hospital room after he was because of her mixed emotions. She could not interpret her feelings towards Bai Chen at all.

However, she already knew that her feelings had changed to this because of what Zheng Fang had said.

It had begun since that day. The day Bai Chen had rescued her sect from Taiyang the Stange, the Sky Soaring realm cultivator.

Bai Chen looked at Xu Xue Ning in confusion as she had gone silent and not replied.

Suddenly, he just realized that what she was wearing was a doctor’s gown. Wasn’t it?

“Are you a doctor?” he could not help but ask.

Xu Xue Ning, who had been quiet for some time, was brought back to her senses. She nodded slowly and said with a trembling voice, “Ah... yes.”

Then, her brain started to function very quickly, thinking about what Bai Chen had asked her about twice before this. Her dazzling eyes wavered a little, revealing that she was using all of her energy to find the answer.

She was lost in thought for only a moment and finally came up with not only one but two answers. Xu Xue Ning quickly spoke up.

“I told you to stop because I’d like to ask you about what you used to cure Grandfather Qi.”

“You mean the life-extending elixir?”

Bai Chen already knew that she would ask about it. It should not have existed in this world as it was what everyone would want. It was a miracle. It extended the human lifespan!

Who in this world would not want to live a long life? That was why everyone in the world would want it!

Bai Chen, too, wanted to have it. Otherwise, he would not have regretted it so much when he’d used the elixir on Qi Wang Fu.

Xu Xue Ning nodded in agreement. She had not expected any sort of detailed answer to what she had asked anyway.

Because she knew full well the value of the life-extending elixir.

And it was just as she’d thought.

“I accidentally got my hands on this life-extending elixir,” Bai Chen said. He chose to lie to her. The Life-Changing System was not something to talk to others about anyway.

“I understand.” Xu Xue Ning nodded. “Could you please give me an opportunity to treat you to a meal? You went so far as to sacrifice that valuable elixir to help my grandfather.”

This was the second thing that Xu Xue Ning had thought of. It actually should have been brought up first because she was the one who had asked for Bai Chen’s help in the first place.

Even though the help was actually a mission given by the Life-Changing System that he had to complete.

Because Xu Xue Ning was in a hurry, she talked about the elixir first. However, no matter which one came first, it did not matter at all to Bai Chen. He did not even pay attention to the fact that she was asking for help.

As to why he did not care, the answer was easy. It was merely a mission that he had gotten from the Life-Changing System.

So, why did he have to care?

But as Xu Xue Ning seemed to be interested in treating him to a meal to show her gratitude, Bai Chen thought that it would be too unkind if he denied the offer. Thus, he finally nodded. “Okay.”

“Thank you very much.” Even though Xu Xue Ning was an elegant and composed woman, she could not help but feel excited when he accepted the offer.

Why would she not be? Having an opportunity to dine with a Legendary realm cultivator like this was a true honor for a lowly cultivator like her.

Other than that, she also thought that maybe he was actually interested in her.

“Where are you going to take me?” Bai Chen asked.

Xu Xue Ning was lost in thought for a moment. “Can it be at my house? Er Er also wants to see you...”

Her voice was soft and clearly uncertain.

The reason why she acted that way was because of Bai Chen. She was not sure if what she was doing was too forward or inappropriate, inviting him to her home like this.

Bai Chen could not believe what he had heard. He did not think she was actually inviting him to eat at her house.

He hesitated and thought about it for a moment, whether it was appropriate for him to go. Then, he thought about Er Er whom Xu Xue Ning had mentioned. He could not help but think that he wanted to see her because he was actually fond of that little girl.

The reason was easy. The girl was cute and cheerful. She could make people happy just by looking at her.

“No problem,” Bai Chen answered.

“Thank you very much.” She thanked him, feeling amazed and excited.

Together, they left the hospital to go to Xu Xue Ning’s house.End of Chapter 153
