Chapter 74 Who Is He Exactly!?
Chapter 74 Who Is He Exactly!?
“Xue Ning, what do you want to talk to me about?”
Like Xu Xue Ning, Long Xu In’s eyes followed Bai Chen’s back. But it was only for a second before she turned back to look at Xu Xue Ning.
Xu Xue Ning looked at Long Xu In, her face expressing caution.
Her hand suddenly moved to put up a qi barrier, which was invisible to ordinary people.
The reason she had to put up a qi barrier was that she was afraid Bai Chen would use his power to eavesdrop on what she had to tell Long Xu In.
However, she knew she could not stop him if he really wished to listen in on her, because a Sky Soaring Realm cultivator was a lot stronger than her.
But at least she was certain that if he were to do it, she would feel it instantly because the qi barrier she had put up was excellent at detection.
In case he really used his power to listen in on them, she would stop her conversation with Long Xu In immediately.
“Xu In, what is your relationship with him? Tell me truthfully.”
Xu Xue Ning said this. Her tone was very steady, but there was undoubtedly some intensity in what she had just said.
Long Xu In blinked her pretty eyes a few times. She did not understand why Xu Xue Ning would ask such a question. But she chose to answer anyway. “I could call him my friend.”
“Friend?”
“That’s right. Actually, I have only known him for a few days,” Long Xu In told her. But she did not mention the fact that Bai Chen had magic powers since she had already given him her word that she would not tell anyone.
“You don’t fancy him, do you?
Xu Xue Ning suddenly blurted out this question, causing Long Xu In’s face to redden a little.
She did not reply immediately. The feelings she had for Bai Chen—she was unsure if she liked him.
But what she could say was she had good feelings for him since he was the one who had saved her from going blind by giving her the magic glasses.
“It would be better if you didn’t fancy him.” Xu Xue Ning spoke up since Long Xu In did not say anything but remained silent.
Long Xu In’s expression changed a little. She raised her eyebrows. “Why?”
“Because his appearance is uncertain,” answered Xu Xue Ning. “His appearance is uncertain. What you are seeing right now is probably not his real body!”
“What do you mean?” A bewildered look appeared on Long Xu In’s pretty face. She pushed up her glasses.
“Xu In, there are many things in this world that you shouldn’t know about. I can only tell you that he is not an ordinary person. Even both of our families combined could hardly do anything to him!”
Xu Xue Ning spoke with the utmost seriousness.
Hearing what Xu Xue Ning told her, Long Xu In’s body started shaking. Her heart started pounding. With a shocked expression on her face, she quickly put forth a question.
“Is this true?”
Xu Xue Ning nodded. Her beautiful eyes were darting back and forth behind her sunglasses.
“It is the absolute truth. Even if the Long and the Xu family, two of the five biggest families of Beijing, were to join hands, we could still never fight him!”
Long Xu In went quiet. At this moment, she had nothing else to say. Her body was trembling slightly.
In truth, she had thought that Bai Chen was the son of the second generation of a wealthy family. But she had never thought that his true self would be so fearsome that even two of Beijing’s biggest families like her Long family and Xu Xue Ning’s Xu family could not touch him.
But thinking back to the magic glasses that he had given her and the magic he mentioned, she started to understand a little.
Long Xu In took one more deep breath. With her gaze fixed on Xu Xue Ning, she asked with a shaky voice, “Wh... who exactly is he?!?”
Xu Xue Ning shook her head in answer.
“I don’t know either, because I only just met him yesterday. One thing I can say is that he is not ordinary, and you shouldn’t fancy him. But you can be friends with him because becoming friends with him will be a very good thing.”
“I understand, Xue Ning.” Long Xu In nodded while calming her emotions.
At any rate, her mind was full of questions. She wondered who Bai Chen really was, and she was no longer sure whether he was really chasing after her and whether he truly fancied her.
There was no doubt that all the questions on her mind were brought on by what Xu Xue Ning had told her.
Xu Er Er was sitting in a chair next to Long Xu In. Even though she pretended not to pay attention to what her big sister was telling Long Xu In, her eyes sparkled immensely.
She never thought that big bro, who seemed so ordinary and did not wear expensive clothes, whom she had accidentally met in front of a flower shop, would turn out to be such an amazing person.
? Bai Chen returned from the bathroom after five minutes. When he reached the table, he found that Long Xu In had already paid.
“Shall we leave?” he asked.
“Mm-hmm.” Long Xu In nodded absentmindedly.
Xu Er Er jumped down from the chair. She walked towards Bai Chen, smiling gleefully, and grabbed his hand. “Big bro, can I come to see your house?”
Bai Chen blinked. He looked down at the cute little girl whose height only reached his waist.
He was about to refuse because his house had nothing particularly interesting. He did not want Xu Er Er to be disappointed.
However, before he could say no, Xu Xue Ning walked in and grabbed Xu Er Er’s arm.
“Don’t be naughty, Er Er. It’s very late. We should hurry home.”
Disappointment showed on Xu Er Er’s face, but only briefly. She nodded, obeying her sister, and letting go of Bai Chen’s hand.
