Life Changing System-Chapter 19 Apologise
Yong Gua's body slowly fell to the ground. He landed on his back and blacked out.
Bai Chen looked down with a faint smile, never having thought that receiving the low-grade martial arts technique would improve his combat abilities like this.
He could not help but think of other skills he would acquire in the future. Perhaps they would be even more surprising.
Ding!

Mission 6: Solve a problem you encounter in the morning (Success)

The mission window popped up in front of him. Bai Chen stared at it with slight regret that he had not gotten the roulette bonus. However, he was still happy with the additional 10 points.
He had 85 points now. Only 15 more and he would level up. Bai Chen closed the mission-accomplishment window before opening the dashboard to check out new missions.

After seeing the new mission, Mission 8, Bai Chen’s eyebrows knitted a little. He had no idea there was a snatch thief in Xing Seng Business District, where he lived. He could not help but click to see the mission details.

[Mission 8: Catch the snatch thief in the Xing Seng Business District.]
Instruction: Recently, a snatch thief has been appearing in the Xing Seng Business District, causing many people to suffer the loss of their belongings.
Reward for success: Win 15 points
Penalty for failure: Customer traffic decreases

Bai Chen ground his teeth loudly. The fact that there was a thief in the Xing Seng district alone was enough to anger him a little. This was because his house was a small Chinese steamed bun shop in the business district itself.
His parents had to get up at three in the morning to make Chinese steamed buns and the dim sum so that they could give him a good life and a good education. How could he not be mad?
Having a thief lingering around the district meant there would be fewer customers!
“You nasty thief. Just you wait till my school day ends. I’ll take care of you!” f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
Bai Chen said this before closing the system window. He then spun around and walked away without sparing a glance at Qian Bei, who was sitting on the ground with wide eyes and his mouth agape.
“Ahhh…” Qian Bei acted as if he had just snapped back to reality. His facial expression had stayed like that for a long time, from when Ba Guan was crying in pain until now.
Qian Bei quickly got up, shouted, and ran after Bai Chen.
“Wait for me, Boss Bai!”
Bai Chen halted and turned around to look at Qian Bei. The boy frowned a little “What did you just call me?”
“I called you Boss Bai. I am very impressed and in awe of your prowess after seeing you take down Ba Guan's gang of five. From now on, I’m gonna call you Boss Bai. Thank you very much for helping me. Otherwise, I would have had to give that crew my money,” Qian Bei said with great enthusiasm.
“Whatever floats your boat then.” Bai Chen decided not to make any comments. He only helped Qian Bei because it was the mission he had been given. He could not care less what Qian Bei called him. Bai Chen turned around and continued walking.
As he saw Bai Chen walking away, Qian Bei went back to stomp on the five poor unconscious members of Ba Guan’s gang, marking their faces and clothes with his footprints.
“You lowly thugs! Remember the footprint of this high and mighty Qian Bei!”
After satisfactorily leaving footprints on them, Qian Bei spoke happily and quickly ran after Bai Chen.
Bai Chen did not go up to class immediately but went to a shop inside the school. He bought a huge 10-yuan pack of crisps and made his way towards the classroom.
He was not alone though. The four-eyed nerd Qian Bei was always with him, babbling nonsense like...do you watch anime? Do you like Nami-chan from One Piece? Or things of that sort.
Bai Chen only absent-mindedly went along with what Qian Bei was saying without paying much attention to him because he had to be careful with whom he made friends with from now on. Otherwise, there would be the second and third versions of Ba Guan.
After a while, he and Qian Bei arrived at their classroom.
Many people were already there when they entered the room. Li Lin was also present.
Qian Bei told him that he would treat him to lunch, then walked over to his desk.
Bai Chen nodded in acknowledgment before walking over to Li Lin.
She looked at him with an extremely stern and stone-cold face. It looked like she really despised his existence.
“Li Lin, can I have a word with you?” Bai Chen stopped in front of Li Lin and asked in a formal, polite tone of voice.
Li Lin glanced at him indifferently, “I don’t want to talk to you. Can you just stop trying to talk to me?!?”
Many students in the class were observing this incident with interest. All the boys and girls liked juicy gossip. From their point of view, Bai Chen was definitely trying to court Li Lin.
That was because she was really pretty. Many boys in the class had tried to court her, but no one had succeeded. Every single one had been rejected in the most humiliatingly face-shattering manner.
Bai Chen sighed. He had never thought that what had happened during childhood would affect him now. “What do you want me to do to make you stop being angry with me? I’m sorry for what happened in kindergarten. I was really naughty back then.”
Li Lin was taken aback for a moment. She had not thought that Bai Chen would ask to talk to her so he could apologise. She had a confused expression on her face, clearly feeling helpless in this situation.
