Reward: You have received 30 points and the opportunity to receive special skills or items at random!
---
Just as Bai Chen was staring at Long Wu Lei, a voice sounded in his head and the mission window popped up.
Bai Chen’s eyes widened a little. He felt very lucky. He had successfully cured Long Wu Lei’s MS by using only one vaccine bottle.
He quickly calculated the points in his head. If he combined this with the points from getting on the plane from Mission 17, for which the window had popped up while he was in the car with Long Xu In, he would now have 65 points!
He only needed 35 more points to reach Level 4.
Bai Chen could not help but wonder how many points he would get in the next two missions.
It would be great if he got more than 35 points altogether.
He was thinking about the two new missions like he had thought of the others, but he did not think to take a look at them now. He wanted to be alone to do so. That way it would be easy to use the roulette bonus he had just received.
He certainly had not received a roulette bonus for Mission 17, which was not unexpected, as the chances were very low for a mission worth less than 15 points.
“H… how is it? Did it work?”
Long Xu In stood beside Bai Chen with an expectant heart. She looked unblinkingly at her grandfather’s face. Sweat was pouring down her smooth forehead.
There was no need to say that she was anxiously waiting for her grandfather to be cured from the MS he was suffering and became strong again.
Right in front of Bai Chen’s and Long Xu In’s eyes, Long Wu Lei’s half-closed eyelids gradually opened wider, revealing the glistening black eyes underneath.
His eyebrows lifted. He felt he was able to move his body, unlike before, when he could do nothing with it. Though now he still could not move that much, the important thing was that he could!
Tears ran down Long Wu Lei’s face. He could not remember how long he had been in that agonising condition where he could not move his body.
But that time was over. All because of Bai Chen, the young man whom his granddaughter had brought to him.
Even though he was in a half-conscious state and could not move his body, he could still hear clearly.
He had heard everything from when Bai Chen was brought into the room to when Bai Chen gave him the vaccine.
Long Wu Lei thought of Bai Chen as his saviour. He was eternally in Bai Chen’s debt!
Because he knew that his MS was an unusual and incurable disease that even the world’s number one doctors could not cure.
But Bai Chen had used the vaccine and fixed his MS in seconds. It was enough for him to know that the vaccine that Bai Chen had used was not an ordinary one. It must have been very rare. Because even his Long family, one of the five biggest families of Beijing, did not have the means to procure it.
Otherwise, he would not have been in this state and waiting for death day by day.
Long Xu Lei felt that his granddaughter had a keen vision in choosing someone like Bai Chen as her boyfriend.
What made him think that Bai Chen was Long Xu In’s girlfriend was because of Long Shen calling him brother-in-law.
“Grandpa!”
Once she saw Long Wu Lei open his eyes and that tears were coming out of his eyes, Long Xu In cried out with joy. Finally, her grandfather was back to normal and no longer half-conscious.
“Lit… little In.”
Long Wu Lei’s lips moved. He slowly turned to look at Long Xu In.
He found that she had grown up so much. She had been just a 15 or 16-year-old girl. But now she had become a full-grown woman.
“Grandpa!”
Long Xu In could not hold back her tears. She cried. She knelt and held Long Wu Lei’s thin hands tightly in both of hers.
If she had not been concerned for his thin, frail body, she would have rushed in to hug him already. It was clear how much she loved her grandfather.
Bai Chen stood up from the chair slowly. He put the vaccine bottle and syringe away in order to dispose them later. He did not want to interrupt the moment between the grandfather and granddaughter.
He looked at them with a smile. He felt warm from just watching such a touching family moment.
But as he stood up to leave, Long Wu Lei turned to him and spoke.
“B… Bai Chen, right? Th… thank you very much for saving me…”
His voice was hoarse and low due to lack of use. Some of his words were swallowed up.
Bai Chen smiled at him. “There’s no need to thank me. It’s Xu In who should be thanked.”
Hearing this made Long Wu Lei like Bai Chen even more. It seemed like his granddaughter had already seized a place in his heart, or why else would Bai Chen say that sort of thing?
If it was anyone else, they would be taking credit in a humble manner already.
“I… I still have to thank you…” Long Wu Lei nodded at Bai Chen and smiled.
He was a 70-year-old man, so his face was full of wrinkles from age.
“Bai Chen, thank you so much,” Long Xu In sobbed. Her gold-rimmed glasses were fogged up from her tears. She looked up at him.
Bai Chen watched with a trembling heart. He thought that Long Xu In was very charming when she cried. She looked exactly like a crying goddess.
“Y… You’re welcome. It is just like I told you.”
Bai Chen could not help but take a deep breath. His voice shook a little as he spoke.
Long Xu In looked at him and her heart skipped a beat. She thought, ‘He is my miracle!’
He was the man who had brought her a miracle. And not just once, but twice!
The first time was when she was about to go blind. The second was this time that he helped heal her grandfather’s MS so that he was back to normal.
Now she finally realised that she… she had fallen in love with him!
Long Xu In, who had never fallen for nor cared for any man before, had fallen in love for the first time.
Even though she knew from Xu Xue Ning that he was not an ordinary person and had impressive origins, she would never let him slip from her grasp.
This was her decision in regards to her first love!
