Bai Chen walked Long Xu In a rather large distance from the house, then he stopped.
Where he stopped was the entrance of a small public park.
“B…Bai Chen.” As if Long Xu In had just awakened from her previous reverie, she called out Bai Chen’s name softly with her trembling voice. She did not know that whether it was excitement or embarrassment that made it quiver.
Bai Chen released her hand. He looked at Long Xu In’s beautiful, reddened face.
“Thank you, Bai Chen.”
Long Xu In inhaled deeply to calm herself down. Come to think of it, maybe Bai Chen had said that only because he did not want her to lose face after announcing that he was her boyfriend.
“It’s okay. It was nothing.” Bai Chen waved his hand a little. He thought that maybe Long Xu In thanked him because he’d helped save her from the arranged marriage.
For him, it was actually not ‘nothing’ unlike what he’d said. It had almost taken his life.
However, it was still nothing compared to how Long Xu In would die protecting him in the future.
It was obvious that Bai Chen had misunderstood things. Long Xu In had not thanked him for what he thought. If she were to thank him for that, she would have thanked him more appropriately.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLong Xu In’s face turned serious. Then, she bowed her head without hesitation.
“Bai Chen, I thank you for getting me out of that arranged marriage!”
Her voice was full of tremendous gratitude.
Bai Chen was confused. He had not expected her to thank him twice.
Then, he quickly nodded. “Xu In, there’s no need for formality. I’m glad I could help.”
Even though he did not understand why she’d thanked him twice, he would not want to refuse her apologies. He accepted both of them.
Hearing what Bai Chen said, Long Xu In raised his head and looked at him. Her heart raced fast. Her face reddened. She curled her smooth hands into fists. She panted a little.
Looking at her now, it was obvious what she was going to do. She was about to confess her feelings.
“B…Bai Chen, do you have someone you like?” she gathered up her courage and asked.
Bai Chen could not help but freeze. He had not expected her to ask such a thing.
In the memories that he’d gotten from his future self, this did not happen today.
Actually, after the Life Changing System helped him in exchange for 500 magical bonuses, he had not visited Long Xu In like what he had done today, either. Instead, he had chosen to focus on completing missions, to be able to take his revenge on Jing Cha the Legendary as soon as possible.
After his system level had reached 20, the war of the system owners had begun. A month later, he’d coincidentally run into Long Xu In. She’d asked him about where he had been, then confessed her feelings.
Unexpectedly, Wu Fan, the seventh system owner, had landed a blow on him before he had gotten a chance to answer. That was when Long Xu In had died protecting him without any hesitation!
Bai Chen quickly regained his senses after freezing and looked at Long Xu In’s flushed face. He knew that she needed a lot of courage to ask him such a thing.
He thought for a second and nodded.
Seeing that, Long Xu In’s perfect body shook. Her embarrassed face turned pale.
She thought that the woman that he liked could not be her!
It could not be because he had never given her any signal that he liked her.
This was the reason why her face had turned pale.
Even so, she eliminated her feelings so easily. At the very least, she wanted to tell him how she felt. Even though she would be disappointed, she still wanted him to know her feelings!
Long Xu In tightened her fists and bit her lips. “Who is that girl? Is it Xue Ning?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was only normal that she would assume so. Xu Xue Ning was the most beautiful woman that she knew. Bai Chen and Xu Xue Ning knew each other, and they also seemed to be in an intimate relationship.
That was why she thought it was Xu Xue Ning.
Bai Chen went quiet. His heart was in a tumult. There were three women whom he loved. One of them was definitely Long Xu In.
However, how could he tell her that there was more than one woman whom he loved?
If she knew, she would definitely think that he was a rake. No woman nowadays would be able to accept if a man who professed to love her had more than one girlfriend at the same time.
Of course, Bai Chen knew that Li Lin and Xu Xue Ning would think the same.
However, now Xu Xue Ning had lost all her memories of the past year because that was a side effect of the Drop of Life. She would not be able to recognise him.
However, even though she could not remember, he would try to do anything to restore her memories and make her happy. That was what he could do to repay her.
“Yes.” Bai Chen finally nodded as an answer.
“I…I see.” Long Xu In’s face turned even paler. She took one step backward. She was in pain that she was not in Bai Chen’s heart.
Even so, she had decided. She inhaled deeply and closed her eyes.
Seconds later, she opened her eyes back up. They were determined. “Bai Chen, towards you, I feel…”
Bai Chen did not wait for Long Xu In to finish. He interrupted in a serious tone. “However, I love you too, Xu In. I know I may seem like a rake to you, but I really love you and Xue Ning. I also like another woman.”
Bai Chen paused to inhale deeply once before he continued. “In my heart, there is you, Xue Ning, and another girl named Li Lin. You are all important to me!”
