Life Changing System
71 It was you?
Having heard Long Xu In and Xu Er Er’s voices, Xu Xue Ning took her eyes off Bai Chen to look at the two.
“Hi, Xu In, long time no see.”
That was right. This woman was Xu Xue Ning, the same mysterious lady Bai Chen had encountered and conversed with yesterday.
“Would you care to join us?” Long Xu In smiled. She rarely smiled, but whenever she met either Xu Xue In or Xu Er Er, she always smiled at them.
Bai Chen looked at Xu Xue Ning and could only frown. He thought this woman looked very familiar.
It could be because she was hiding her face, so he did not know who she was.
Xu Xue Ning did not reply right away but turned to look at Bai Chen again.
Xu Er Er’s pretty round eyes blinked several times. She looked at her older sister with surprise, then looked back at Bai Chen in turn.
‘What’s wrong with big sister? Why is she staring at this big brother non-stop?’ she wondered.
Her sister had not once shown interest in a man in this way.
It was not only Xu Er Er whose suspicion was triggered. Long Xu In also started to get suspicious, too. She noticed that Xu Xue Ning had locked her gaze onto Bai Chen. And the guy was staring at her without blinking as well.
‘These two know each other?’ Long Xu In thought. But thinking it through, it was highly unlikely. She knew Xu Xue Ning quite well. She had never shown interest in any guys in her life.
Not even her male cousins.
“Xue Ning, do you know Bai Chen?” She gave in and finally asked about this.
“Bai Chen…” Under the mask, Xu Xue Ning’s lips parted. She mumbled to herself.
Her eyes behind the sunglasses quivered. She had seen him earlier but had not quite been sure because right now he looked really young, unlike the person she had met yesterday who was in his thirties.
But now that she had heard what Long Xu In said, she was very sure that this was the guy. The names “Chen Bai” and “Bai Chen” simply had the first and last names switched. How could she have failed to notice?
Though Xu Xue Ning was sure that this was the elder she had run into yesterday, she was not quite sure how he had come to be in this younger version of himself.
‘Or is this some sort of superior transfiguration spell?’ Xu Xue Ning could not help but wonder.
‘This elder’s shapeshifting skill is beyond imagination,’ she thought. Xu Xue Ning’s respect for Bai Chen deepened. He was not only a Sky Soaring Realm cultivator but also possessed an advanced shapeshifting technique.
“I know him a little,” she turned to answer Long Xu In—an answer that shocked Long Xu In considerably. She had never imagined that Xu Xue Ning would know Bai Chen.
It was not only Long Xu In who was in shock, though. The cute little girl, Xu Er Er was also bewildered.
Xu Xue Ning was her sister. How could she not know her sister’s character?
Bai Chen was confused. He asked Xu Xue Ning, “Uh… do we know each other?”
He obviously did not know it was her, though he felt she looked a bit familiar.
“Elder,” Xu Xue Ning said softly. This word made Bai Chen stand up almost immediately with his eyes slightly widened. “It was you?”
He had never thought they would meet again.
Moreover, he was sure that she would not remember him, because right now he did not look like his 30-year-old self.
It seemed Bai Chen was too naïve. Now that they were meeting again by chance, she still remembered him.
“Yes, it’s me,” Xu Xue Ning replied. She did not use the language of cultivators like she had before. There were others around right now, so it was not convenient for Xu Xue Ning to use it.
Bai Chen took a deep breath; he did not know what to say. Seeing Bai Chen’s reaction, Long Xu In was now sure that these two really did know each other.
“So, you two know each other. Care to join us then?”
“Yes.” Xu Xue Ning nodded and took a seat next to Bai Chen.
The boy had a complicated expression on his face. He did not know whether to laugh or cry, having never thought that he would meet Xu Xue Ning again.
“Wow! Big bro, it’s so awesome that you know my sister!” Xu Er Er beamed and said joyfully.
From her point of view, the first man that had gotten acquainted with her sister meant that he was quite awesome.
Having said that, she took a seat next to Long Xu In.
“I’ve already ordered. Xue Ning, please feel free to order more. Er Er, too. It’s my treat this time.”
Though Long Xu In was quite curious about how Bai Chen and Xu Xue Ning knew each other, she did not ask. The woman thought she could always ask Bai Chen the next time it was just the two of them together.
Xu Xue Ning nodded and looked at Xu Er Er. “Er Er, you can order whatever you want to eat.”
“Yes.” Xu Er Er nodded and looked over the menu.
Long Xu In called over the staff to order more food. Xu Er Er ordered a few dishes, while Xu Xue Ning ordered one.
She did not care much about dinner today; her eyes were locked on Bai Chen.
The woman wanted to know why he had assumed this form instead of his real one.
She clearly believed that his 30-year-old self was his real form, not this one he was using.
‘Or, is he using this body to court Xu In?’ Xu Xue Ning could not help but have this thought.
Looking at how he dressed today and his younger appearance, there were no other explanations.
‘That must be it. Xu In is a very beautiful woman.’
Having thought of this, Xu Xue Ning still found it rather inappropriate. He was 30 years old but transfigured himself into an 18-year-old to fool Long Xu In.
This was neither a right nor appropriate action!
