Life Changing System

Li Lin did not say a word, so Bai Chen thought she had not forgiven him. But he had to make that happen, partly because of the guilt and partly because of the mission.

“What do you say? What do I have to do to make you forgive me?” he said while putting a bag of snacks in front of her. “Would this count as a redemption for stealing your snacks back then?”

When Li Lin heard what Bai Chen said, her pretty round eyes blinked rapidly in confusion. She still honestly did not know how to act in this situation. Li Lin found herself in a helpless position.

Suddenly, a jeering voice sounded.

“Can’t you see that Li Lin is not happy with this, yet you still dare to court her? By the way, what’s with your tactic anyway? You bought her a cheap bag of crisps?”

A boy in a nice-looking expensive outfit walked into the room with a huge bouquet of red roses in hand. His face was slightly good-looking, but not too much. He would be classified as having moderately good looks.

Bai Chen turned to look at the guy who had spoken and was walking into the room. He instantly remembered that the other party was Ao Song. He was the son of a well-to-do family, though not extremely wealthy.

He, however, very much liked to show off and often insulted his classmates. Ao Song had been trying to court Li Lin for a very long time. He planned to marry up.

Li Lin’s background, in terms of both her looks and financial status, made her the one and only priceless flower of Xing Xiang School. Whoever got to be her boyfriend would be a lucky man indeed.

This made Ao Song want to catch her. And by “catch”, he meant becoming richer through marriage. He wanted to be one of the wealthy… and being able to live an opulent life without having to flex a muscle for the rest of his life.

Li Lin hated Ao Song’s guts. She hated this boy even more than Bai Chen because he kept following her around like an annoying fly that would never go away.

“Sorry, I was not trying to court her,” Bai Chen told Ao Song calmly before turning back to look at Li Lin and saying, “If you won’t forgive me, then that’s fine.”

As soon as he was done speaking, he immediately left the room.

He left Li Lin staring with a confused expression. Ao Song was just as confused.

He actually thought that Bai Chen would say something back. But the boy did not do anything. He just left.

Other students in the room had a different view on this, though. From their perspective, there was only one explanation. Bai Chen had been rejected by Li Lin, and he could not bear the embarrassment, so he left the room.

“Boss, wait up!” Qian Bei, who had been observing what had gone down, felt really sorry for his Boss Bai. He shouted after him and rushed out of the classroom to console Bai Chen.

“What a coward.”

Finally, Ao Song snapped out of his confusion. He forced himself to speak and put on a smile while walking towards Li Lin. “Li Lin, look. Today, I bought you another huge rose bouquet. Have you decided to be my girlfriend yet?”

Li Lin snapped out of her confusion as well. She ignored Ao Song and rushed out of the room after Bai Chen.

After thinking this matter through, she now knew that it was just some kindergarten stuff.

What would she hate him for? He had just apologised to her sincerely. If she still refused to forgive him, that would make her a narrow-minded person, wouldn’t it?

When Ao Song saw Li Lin walk past without paying him any attention, the boy felt a rush of anger in his heart. He could only grind his teeth loudly, sulkily, and sullenly, though there was no way to release that anger.

Bai Chen walked quite fast. He had already reached the stairway to the lower floors, but he had not yet walk down them, because he could hear Qian Bei's voice calling him from behind.

Qian Bei’s voice made him turn around to take a look. The nerdy guy was rushing toward him with great speed, before coming to a halt in front of him.

“Boss Bai, don’t be sad. There is plenty of fish in the sea.”

The first thing Qian Bei said was words of consolation.

Bai Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry. He wanted to tell the guy that he was not trying to court Li Lin, he only wanted to apologise to her about something that happened when they were kids.

But thinking it through, there was no need for Bai Chen to explain himself to Qian Bei, so, in the end, he chose to stay quiet.

The reason that he walked out of the room was none other than trying to get Li Lin to chase after him.

From a 30-year-old man's perspective, Li Lin was but a young girl. She surely would not want to feel guilty for not forgiving him. He truly believed this.

And it was exactly like that. Li Lin really followed him out. Bai Chen told Qian Bei, who was trying to console him, softly, “You go back first.”

Qian Bei was silent.

He was momentarily stunned, before following Bai Chen’s line of sight past him. The boy could not stop from turning around to see Li Lin making her way towards them. He was speechless then.

It seemed that his thoughts were too simple. Qian Bei could not help but give Bai Chen a thumb-up before walking past Li Lin to return to the classroom.

Li Lin stood still in front of Bai Chen. She reached her delicate, snow-white hand out. “Where is it?”

Bai Chen smiled and willingly gave her the bag of crisps he was holding.

“So, does that mean you forgive me now?”

“Yes... but this isn’t over yet. Tomorrow you will have to go shopping with me. I want you to be my servant for the day, then I’ll truly forgive you,” Li Lin said.

Bai Chen did not expect Li Lin to say this. He thought about it a little before feeling excited. “You mean a date?”

“A date? What are you talking about?” Li Lin’s pretty round eyes widened when she heard what he said. She quickly hit him with the bag of crisps.

“It’s not?” Bai Chen couldn’t help but rub his face. He was not at all hurt. The reason he got excited over dating was that he had never hung out with any girls before in his life.
