Life Changing System

Chapter 179 Heading Out

Bai Chen and Li Lin got on the bus and sat next to each other.

There were many seats on the bus. They were separated into two sides, each side accommodating two people, as the seats were next to each other. This bus was probably recently bought as everything on the bus was quite new, including its smell.

“Big bro Bai, care for some snacks?”

Qian Bei had coincidentally sat in front of Bai Chen. He turned to Bai Chen and offered an open bag of potato chips to him.

“It’s okay. You can keep it for yourself. I have my own.”

Bai Chen waved his hands as a sign of refusal. His hands were also holding potato chips. It was actually Li Lin’s snack. She hadn’t prepared just a few bags—she’d actually prepared a lot of snacks for this trip.

Thus, she had kindly shared hers with Bai Chen, who had not brought any snacks with him.

“Okay.” Qian Bei turned his head back along with his snacks.

“Hey, why did that bespectacled guy call you big bro?” Li Lin moved a little closer to Bai Chen as she whispered this.

Actually, this was not the first time that she’d heard Qian Bei calling Bai Chen “big bro”. She just had not had a chance to ask about it.

The chance was now here. Thus, it was only normal for Li Lin to ask.

Bai Chen blinked several times. His heart raced a bit when Li Lin moved closer. He could smell her sweet fragrance.

He smiled and moved his face closer to hers. His nose sniffed Li Lin’s sweet scent.

“What the heck are you doing?!?” Li Lin blushed. She quickly moved back to her seat. Her heart suddenly beat fast as she had not expected Bai Chen to do things like this.

“Nothing.” Bai Chen smiled a little. “I thought you wanted to know why Qian Bei called me his big bro. Move closer to me and I’ll tell you.”

“Dream on. I don’t want to know anymore.” Li Lin glared at Bai Chen. Her face was still red and her heart was still beating fast. She knew that Bai Chen was teasing her.

‘That wasn’t nice at all. You despicable person!’ Li Lin thought to herself. Even so, she felt happy that he’d teased her like this. She turned away from him, pretending not to pay attention to him.

Li Lin’s doll-like face, when she was angry, was rather adorable. Bai Chen laughed softly. He felt happy being able to tease her.

“I was just joking. Don’t be mad,” he said while offering her snacks. “Want some?”

“No.” Li Lin still pretended like she did not care about him. She did not turn back to him.

‘Those snacks were mine in the first place. I gave them to you. How dare you act like they are yours? I’m so mad,’ she grumbled in her mind.

Of course, she was not mad at Bai Chen for real. She was just complaining to herself in a sulky manner.

“Qian Bei calls me his big bro because I helped him get away from the thugs who were after his money.”

Bai Chen took a potato chip out of the bag and put it in his mouth. He chewed while looking at Li Lin.

“You?” Li Lin suddenly turned her doll-like face to Bai Chen. She looked at him in surprise.

It was only normal that she would not believe him. She had not seen Bai Chen fight with anyone. That was why she thought it was unlikely.

She looked into Bai Chen’s eyes and finally decided to believe it. She did not see any sign of a lie in his eyes at all.

“Of course.” Bai Chen ate another potato chip. “I’m quite good, you know?”

“Pshaw,” Li Lin exhaled. “Conceited much!”

Bai Chen could only laugh softly at what she’d said. He looked at her before grabbing another potato chip and offering it to her soft, smooth lips.

“Open your mouth,” he said, smiling.

Li Lin’s face suddenly flushed red. She was obviously bashful. Her heart that was once calm started to race again.

She blinked. Her breaths were a little raspy. She did not expect Bai Chen to dare do this.

‘You don’t care about what others would think at all?’ Li Lin complained mentally. Even so, she still ate the chip that Bai Chen offered to her anyway.

Seeing her eat the chip he had fed her, Bai Chen was happy. He beamed and put another chip into his mouth like nothing had happened.

Of course, what Bai Chen did was witnessed by other students. They were sitting in the same row, but on the opposite side of Bai Chen and Li Lin.

They were both males. They felt only jealousy inside. They did not expect Bai Chen to be able to capture the heart of Li Lin, the only beautiful flower of Xing Xian school.

“You’re too lucky, Bai Chen!” one of the two said jealously.

“It’s like what that four-eyed geek Qian Bei said. They’re definitely going out,” another boy said, sighing.

It was true that Bai Chen and Li Lin were close, but they did not want to believe it much. The one who had spread the rumor was none other than Qian Bei.

But seeing it with their own eyes like this, it was difficult not to believe it.

However, Qian Bei misunderstood. Bai Chen and Li Lin were not dating yet. And because Qian Bei was the source of the rumor, everyone in the class had already misunderstood them too.

“Are all of the students in our class here?”

A middle-aged teacher asked; she was the class teacher. She was standing in front of the tour bus. Her eyes swept over the bus to check if her students were all there.

A moment later, the middle-aged teacher nodded. “This seems to all of them.”

She could tell that all of her students were already there with only a single glance.

“The bus is about to leave. We should arrive at He Ling beach at around noon to 1 p.m.,” the middle-aged teacher said with a smile. “If anyone wants to do karaoke, please feel free to come up here.”

From what the teacher had said, it would take them a little over five hours to travel to He Ling beach, without traffic. He Ling beach was not so far away from Xing Zhou city, but it was not close either.

The five-hour drive was proof of that.

Right after the middle-aged teacher’s announcement, many girls screamed ‘Yeahhh!’ with excitement. Some of the boys did too.

They were excited to go on a trip and do karaoke.

Not very long after that, the bus left the school premises, thus beginning the trip to He Ling beach.
