Bai Chen had never thought that this Long Xu In would be this dictatorial, but he still refused to follow her.
“I’m not done picking up trash yet.”
“Stop picking up trash and come with me!” Long Xu In stared angrily at Bai Chen, making her look very attractive.
He shook his head. “No, I have to clean the park up first.”
She hesitated a little when he insisted. Long Xu In pondered things for a little while. She did not understand why Bai Chen was picking up trash here, but eventually, she nodded. “Fine… I’ll help.”
“You’re gonna help?” Bai Chen felt surprised. He did not expect this woman to help him pick up litter.
But he did not want her help, because if she did, the system might not count this as his progress.
“No, no, it has to be me. If you want me to follow you after this, just go wait for me on the bench over there,” he said and pointed to a long marble bench nearby.
Long Xu In’s beautiful eyebrows knitted together. She blinked her beautiful eyes while staring at Bai Chen’s face. “Why?”
The boy did not know what to say; then, an idea flashed in his mind. He instantly spoke with a serious voice.
“Because your beautiful hands will be dirty.”
“O… okay, I’ll sit over there to wait,” she said and let go of his arm. Long Xu In walked with her head down towards the nearby bench.
Bai Chen did not notice that Long Xu In was blushing right now.
She was obviously affected by his words. Long Xu In confirmed her belief that he was courting her. His words seemed to indicate that he was.
So, she could only do as she was told and chose to wait on a stone bench nearby.
When he saw Long Xu In sitting down on the bench obediently, Bai Chen let out a sigh.
He was actually not trying to court her, despite having said what he’d said. He’d only used a trick he’d seen in a TV series.
Bai Chen then continued to pick up rubbish in the park.
About fifteen minutes later, he heard a sound in his head. A mission-accomplishment window popped up.
Ding!

Mission 11: Pick up the trash in Xing Xiang Park (Success)

Bai Chen looked at the mission-accomplishment window with satisfaction before closing it and throwing the garbage bag away in a trash can.
When he was done with that, he walked back to the bench where Long Xu In was seated.
He could tell that she had looked for him today to ask about the magic glasses, but that was something he did not want to tell her about.
Nevertheless, he had to follow her to where she wanted him to go. If he refused to do so, she would be a bother in his life for sure.
That was why he had not made a run for it when she was waiting for him on the bench.
“Let’s go.” Long Xu In stood up from the bench as soon as she saw him approaching.
“Where to?” Bai Chen asked. Although he was willing to follow her, he still wanted to know where she was taking him.
Long Xu In looked at him and answered, “My place.”
“Your place?!?” Bai Chen’s eyes widened a little when he heard that she was going to take him to her place. He became vigilant in an instant.
“What for, sister?”
“Stop calling me sister. Just Xu In would be fine,” Long Xu In said. “You’ll know as soon as we arrive.”
She did not let Bai Chen ask any more questions and walked over to cling to his arm, causing her rather large breasts to touch it.
Bai Chen became slightly dazed when he felt the softness against his arm.
Before he realised it, Long Xu In had already dragged him to her luxurious BMW.
Long Xu In did not seem to realise that her breasts were touching his arm. Otherwise, she would have turned red with embarrassment because she had never been this close to a man before.
Bai Chen sat down in the passenger side of the latest model BMW, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Because Long Xu In, who was driving, did not explain why they were going to her house. She only said that he would find out soon.
Bai Chen could not do anything but sit still. As for the new mission, he was not in the mood to check it out right now, so the boy only sat in the passenger seat without saying anything.
“What’s wrong?”
After noticing that Bai Chen did not try at all to have a conversation with her, Long Xu In, who was driving, could not help but make the query. With just the two of them hanging out together, she thought Bai Chen would not let this chance go to waste and try to talk to her.
If asked where she had conjured up this idea, the woman would definitely have replied that it was because she knew he was trying to win her over.
From her point of view, this moment was like winning the lottery for him—because she had never spared a single glance at any guys who had tried to court her before.
But this time, it was very different for her!
Bai Chen was the lifeline that had pulled her up from the darkness. He’d offered Long Xu In a hand and help when she was helpless as a result of her impending blindness.
Combining that with the magic glasses and his fortune-telling, how could she not be interested in him?
“Nothing,” Bai Chen replied, then asked at the same time, “I’m just thinking things over a little bit. By the way, Xu In, why are you taking me to your house again?”
He was not calling her ‘sister’ anymore, because he was actually ten years older than her.
After getting permission to call her ‘Xu In’, Bai Chen did not hold back.
Long Xu In felt happy. This was the first time she’d allowed any man, other than her father, to call her Xu In instead of Long Xu In.
