Life Changing System-Chapter 52 Conversation

“Elder Chen Bai, I will imprint your name in my memory without fail in return for you telling me your name.”

Xu Xue Ning said this respectfully to Bai Chen. She found him very down-to-earth.

He was not like other Sky Soaring realm cultivators she had met, who were usually arrogant and looked down on those at lower cultivation levels.

“No big deal.” Bai Chen waved his hand a little. In the meantime, he was wondering when the mission-accomplishment window would pop up, as he had been conversing with Xu Xue Ning, the mysterious lady, for a while now.

“If Elder is all right with it, can I have your phone number?” Xu Xue Ning said. She would not let this opportunity go to waste.

The chance to talk to and get to know a Sky Soaring cultivator, who was not arrogant, was rare, so she had to ask for his number.

“Phone number?” Bai Chen frowned a little. He had no mobile phone. His house was just a small Chinese steamed bun shop. How could he afford to buy himself such an expensive thing?

Even though his dad had a mobile phone, it was a very old model.

Seeing Bai Chen frown, Xu Xue Ning understood instantly that he did not want to give her his phone number.

Though her expression remained calm, the woman could not help but feel disappointed. She did not insist on getting the number though.

Xu Xue Ning said apologetically, “I apologise, Elder. Please pardon my ill manners.”

Bai Chen did not know what to say. He sighed. He did not know why she was the one apologising, when it was him who was at fault and needed to apologise.

This was because she had asked for his number sincerely, but he had refused to give it to her.

“You don’t need to apologise. It’s just that I don’t have a phone. That’s why I can’t give you my phone number,” he said at last. His tone was apologetic.

“You don’t have a phone?” Xu Xue Ning felt surprised.

“No, I don’t.” Bai Chen shook his head. He did not have any need to lie to her, not even a bit.

Seeing his head shaking in confirmation, Xu Xue Ning went quiet for a while. She had not expected him to not have a mobile phone, and she did not think he was lying either. His face did not have a hint of a lie on it.

‘Could it be that he has just come out of many years of seclusion? If so, is that why he doesn’t have a phone?’ she wondered in her mind.

While she was pondering things, Bai Chen said, “How about this? When I buy myself a phone, I’ll give you a call. Just leave me your number.”

The reason that drove him to say that was because she was sincerely asking for his number. He then felt the need to return that sincerity by asking her to leave him her number.

As soon as he got himself a mobile phone, he would immediately give her a call.

He did not know when that would happen though, because his family did not have so much money that he could buy whatever he wanted. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m

After hearing what Bai Chen said, Xu Xue Ning went quiet for a little while. She then nodded. “That would do as well. But, Elder, please don’t forget to give me a call as soon as you have a phone.”

“Sure.” Bai Chen smiled faintly. Getting himself the number of a beautiful woman like Xu Xue Ning quite pleased him. How then could he not smile?

“This is my number.” Xu Xue Ning gave Bai Chen her name card.

She merely waved her hand lightly and her name card flew to Bai Chen.

Bai Chen felt an instant panic when he saw Xu Xue Ning’s action and the name card that was drifting his way.

He felt panic for a short while before returning to a normal state of mind. Bai Chen reached out his hand to take the name card. If he had to guess, the thing that made the name card float towards him mid-air must be the power of qi.

Xu Xue Ning must be wielding the power of qi, as he had seen many times before in martial arts movies. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦

Bai Chen looked at the name card he had just grabbed. He saw the name “Xu Xue Ning” and her number written on it and nothing else.

However, the type of paper she had used to make the name card was quite extraordinary.

As Bai Chen was checking out Xu Xue Ning’s name card, the mission-accomplishment window popped up in front of him.

‘The mission’s done!’ Bai Chen felt really happy about this. He stopped paying attention to Xu Xue Ning’s name card, put it in the pocket of his trousers, and looked at her before talking.

“If there’s nothing else, then I’ll excuse myself.”

Bai Chen obviously wanted to head home because the mission was done. There was no need to talk to Xu Xue Ning ever again.

It was not that he did not enjoy talking to her. He only feared that if he stayed a little while longer, he might end up falling in love with her.

Xu Xue Ning was a strikingly beautiful woman; much more attractive than any other woman he had ever met in all of his lives. He had looked at her face directly only a few times during their earlier conversation.

“I won’t hold Elder back then.” Xu Xue Ning cupped her fists towards him with respect.

“See you later.” Bai Chen nodded at her before turning around and walking away.

Looking at his back, Xu Xue Ning could not believe her luck today in getting to converse with Bai Chen, whom she misunderstood to be a Sky Soaring cultivator.

Even though that conversation had not touched on any important matters.
