“U… unbelievable!”

Long Xu In could not help but exclaim this aloud, though she knew Bai Chen had magical powers and had seen him pull this off once before.

She was shocked, nevertheless. Long Xu In took a deep breath and because she couldn’t help herself, asked, “What you just did, is it like the magic you showed me the other day?”

“Yes.” Bai Chen nodded. He had told her about his magic and showed it to her before, so he had nothing to hide.

But, of course, what he had done was not any sort of magic. It was actually a magic ring. Bai Chen had only put the medicine box back into his ring.

Long Xu In could feel her heart pounding hard in her chest. She wanted to ask him to teach her how to cast this spell.

However, after thinking this through, she did not dare to utter her request.

In the end, Long Xu In could only keep this matter in her heart. She thought about what he had said earlier, that the vaccine could cure all diseases.

Her expression changed dramatically when she realized this.

“You… did you just say the vaccine you have could cure all diseases?” she asked with a slightly shaky voice.

Bai Chen nodded, not hiding anything. “Yes, it’s a vaccine for all diseases. Do you believe that?”

“I believe you!” Long Xu In said without hesitation. She nodded vehemently.

With the magic glasses that he had given her and the magic he had just performed, how could she not?

Bai Chen was really surprised at her answer. If it had been someone else, they would have thought he had gone mad—because there was no such thing as a ‘vaccine for all diseases’ in this world.

“You really believe it?”

“I do.”

Long Xu In reaffirmed her words. She stopped walking. Her expression was one of hesitation.

Bai Chen saw her halt and could not help but to turn back to look at her.

“Is something the matter?”

“I have a favour to ask.” Though hesitant, Long Xu In finally spoke her mind.

“A favour?” Bai Chen frowned slightly. “It’s not asking me to give you the vaccine so that you can give it to your Auntie Tang, right?”

“No.” Long Xu In shook her head almost instantly. She no longer had thoughts of helping Tang Yien in her mind.

It was Tang Yien who had rejected Bai Chen’s good intentions, and also hers.

“It’s my grandpa… He’s sick. His body’s weak.”

“Your grandpa’s ill?” Bai Chen felt skeptical. How coincidental could this be?

He thought it was very possible that Long Xu In was lying to him so that she could give Tang Yien the vaccine.

“You’re not lying to me, right?”

“I’m not lying!” Long Xu In replied quickly. She shook her head at the same time.

“I’m really not lying to you. If you don’t believe me, I can take you to see my grandfather. I just want the vaccine… No, I’ll buy it from you, no matter how much it costs!”

Bai Chen said nothing for quite a while. He lowered his head, busy with his own thoughts. He did not know if Long Xu In was telling the truth or not.

Now that she had said this much, he could not refuse to give it to her.

“Fine, I’ll give you one bottle of the vaccine. Consider my debt to you paid, all right?” said Bai Chen. He held out his hand, preparing to take out the medicine box.

But before he could do that, Long Xu In spoke up quickly.

“No… don’t give it to me. To confirm that I’m being truthful, I’ll take you with me to see my grandpa.”

Bai Chen had not expected Long Xu In to say this. He lowered his hand, no longer taking out the medicine box from the dimension ring.

“So be it. By the way, where is your grandpa living?” he asked.

“At Dong Hai Island,” Long Xu In replied.

“Dong Hai Island?” Bai Chen revisited his memories a little.

If he remembered correctly, this Dong Hai Island was in the south of China. It was an island in the middle of the Dong Hai Sea. Traveling there required either a ship or an airplane.

“Yes.” Long Xu In nodded. “My grandfather is on that island. Do you want to come with me?”

Bai Chen did not give his answer immediately. He stood there for a while, pondering, before eventually replying.

“Sure then. Thinking of it as me repaying my debt to you.”

“Thank you,” Long Xu In thanked him and sighed with relief. Truthfully, she had thought he would say no.

“When are you going?” Bai Chen asked. He had to make sure of this detail in order to plan ahead.

Long Xu In thought a little and gave her answer. “As fast as I can. My grandpa’s health is getting worse day by day.”

“Tomorrow’s okay then?” Bai Chen said.

For him, repaying his debt to Long Xu In was considered a big issue. As for school, he had decided to take the entire week off.

It seemed like there were many things he had to sort out, from Long Xu In’s issue to the White Tiger Gang’s matters.

“Thank you so, so much, Bai Chen. I’ll pick you up at the same place. Deal?” Long Xu In felt so elated that she wanted to rush in to hug Bai Chen.

He waved his hand back and forth. “It’s me paying my debt to you like I said.”

Long Xu In did not comment on this. For her, the fact that he said he was indebted to her—she had never considered him to be indebted to her.

In Long Xu In’s mind, it was her who owed Bai Chen a lot, from the magic glasses he had given her and now this.

Both issues were really huge to her—to the point that she felt she could never thank him enough.

Of course, Bai Chen did not know what was going through Long Xu In’s mind. He turned around and kept walking as he spoke. “Let’s head back.”

“Mm-hmm.” Long Xu In stopped pondering every matter she had been thinking of and sped after him.

Their destination was, of course, the parking lot of this hotel, where the BMW was parked.

And the reason for that was Bai Chen wanting Long Xu In to drive him to the entrance of the Xing Seng Business District.
