At some time in the afternoon, Bai Chen arrived at Xing Xiang Park on his bicycle.
It was midday, so the park was not as crowded as it was in the evening, even though many people were on their break today.
The thing more abundant than people were garbage. Bai Chen saw many pieces of trash scattered around the park entrance. He could not help but shake his head, seeing all that rubbish.
The boy could only wonder why people could throw it on the ground and not in the bin.
But there was not much use complaining, because people like that were everywhere around the world.
After parking his bike under a tree, Bai Chen made his way into Xing Xiang park.
He was, at the same time, picking up trash and putting it into a black garbage bag that he’d bought from the supermarket. This was his mission after all.
The boy kept picking up trash without a hint of exhaustion. Though the sun was quite bright, it was not enough to tire him out.
There were many people lounging under the trees as well. When they saw Bai Chen picking up trash, they could not help but be surprised.
Because the boy that they saw was not in a Xing Xiang cleaner’s uniform.
Although they were surprised, they did not care much about it. These people continued to do what they wanted to do without caring if the park was going to be full of garbage or not.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was no doubt that these people were some of the litterbugs.
Bai Chen did not have time to care about these people though. He continued to pick up trash all around Xing Xiang Park to complete the mission.
When he was done, he would get 10 more points. As for the randomisation bonus, he had not given it any thought for this mission.
He realised now that the randomisation bonus was only available for missions that awarded 15 or more points. There might be a few in some of the missions with 10 points, but the chances were very slim.
Like how he got the bonus with a 10-point mission earlier.
With these mechanics, he knew he could not expect much from this 10-point mission he was doing.
“Y… you!”
While Bai Chen was picking up trash, he heard a voice shouting from the front, so he turned his head to look.
When he saw who it was, he was stunned.
The owner of the voice was none other than the genius young lady. She was also in a white suit that suited her flawless body perfectly.
The woman was also wearing the same hairstyle. The only thing different about her was the gold-framed glasses she was wearing. They were the magic glasses that Bai Chen had given her.
Bai Chen looked at her for a while and could only smile wryly. He was hoping that they would never meet again because he did not want to tell her anything about the glasses.
“Hey, sister, long time no see.” He could only greet her with a smile as dry as the desert.
“Don’t say that. Why didn’t you come here yesterday? You know what? I was waiting for you in the park all day!” the genius lady said angrily.
After she had learned what Bai Chen’s glasses could do, the woman had gone crazy with excitement.
It was just like he’d said. When she put the glasses on, her vision returned to normal.
When she took them off, her eyesight had gradually improved just like he’d said.
When things had turned out this way, her attitude towards him had flipped 180 degrees. Her disgust towards him vanished—the disgust which had stemmed from the belief that he was the son of a rich family whose wealth was in its second generation who had been trying to court her.
But she still thought that he was trying to court her nevertheless. Otherwise, he would not have given her these wonderful glasses.
She was waiting for him the next morning to express her gratitude.
As for the magic glasses, she now truly believed that they were made from magic. Because if not, then how else could anyone make this type of glasses?
For twenty years of her life, she had never believed in magic. But her mindset had shifted completely now. The woman wholeheartedly believed in this type of sorcery.
She was waiting to meet him but did not see even a hint of his shadow yesterday, which threw her into a rage. This rage was also the motive that had pushed her into waiting for him again today.
But the odds were still in her favour though, as she was seeing him again.

“I went to school yesterday and had lots of homework to take care of, so I didn’t come.”
Bai Chen did not expect that she would be waiting to meet him, so he lied. The reason that he had not shown up yesterday was none other than the fact that he had not had any need to.
“School? Homework? You’re still in school?” The genius lady calmed down her rage when she heard his reasonable excuses.
“Yes, sister. I’m only 18. I’m going through my final year in high school now.” Bai Chen did not feel the need to hide anything from her regarding this matter, so he did not leave out even the smallest details.
“Which school?” she asked curiously.
Bai Chen blinked at her. He did not know why she’d asked, but he still replied.
“Xing Xian School.”
“What’s your name?” She continued to interrogate him.
“Bai Chen,” he answered and inquired back, “Yours?”
“My name’s Long Xu In.” She told him her name without concealing anything and proceeded to say, “Come with me.”
Long Xu In walked up to him and took his arm with her soft, fair hand, wanting to drag him to where she wanted to go.
But before she could do that, Bai Chen stopped her. “Wait, wait, sister, where are you taking me?”
“Don’t say anything. Just follow me,” she said.
