Bai Chen got home in the afternoon in Long Xu In’s car.
As soon as he got home, Bai Chen went straight to his room. He sat down on his bed and called up the Life Changing System window.
He wanted to see what the new mission was.

Seeing the name of the new mission surprised Bai Chen a little because this mission was extremely easy. When Long Xu In had driven him to the entrance of the Xing Seng Business District, she had already told him they would board a plane to Dong Hai Island.
Bai Chen then clicked on Mission 17 to see if there were any more requirements.

After seeing there was nothing more to this mission, Bai Chen closed all the system windows. He then took out the iPhone he had just bought.
Along the way, Long Xu In had briefly gone through how to use the phone with him.
The first step was to unlock the screen. Bai Chen did that rapidly and easily.
He had never had a mobile phone before, so he was a little excited now that he had gotten it.
Bai Chen did not know how to use it well though. He only knew how to unlock the phone and make or take a call.
As for applications and Apple ID, he had not quite gotten the hang of those yet.
The reason that he got out the phone was to call Qian Bei. He wanted him to tell the teachers that he would be on leave this week.
Bai Chen had Qian Bei’s number because yesterday when Qian Bei had invited him to play video games at his house, the nerdy guy jotted his phone number down for Bai Chen.
His memory was very good, so it was not difficult to recall Qian Bei’s number.
He keyed in the number on the touchscreen and pressed dial to make a call, putting the phone to his ear.
The phone rang four times before someone picked up.
“Hello. Who is that?” Of course, it was Qian Bei’s voice at the other end of the line.
“Qian Bei, it’s me, Bai Chen.”
“Huh? Boss?” Qian Bei exclaimed with shock before getting excited.
“You bought a phone? Is that why you can call me or have you borrowed someone’s phone? Is there anything that I can help you with? If so, then please do tell. This underling of yours is always ready to serve!”
Bai Chen had to take the phone away from his ear because Qian Bei was basically shouting. His voice was extremely loud.
“Calm down a bit, man,” Bai Chen said, putting the phone back to his ear.
Hearing that made Qian Bei grow calmer. “Yes, boss. By the way, what are you calling me for?”
“Can you tell our class teacher that I’m going to take a week off?” Bai Chen told Qian Bei his reason for calling.
“Of course, boss. Piece of cake. By the way, where are you going? Why are you taking so many days off?”
“I have something I need to take care of.” Bai Chen did not say that he was going to Dong Hai Island. That was all he told him.
“Got it. You were also not at school today because you had some business you needed to tend to, right?” Qian Bei asked.
“Yeah. By the way, did Li Lin show up at school today?” Bai Chen could not help but ask about Li Lin. He was not sure if her anger at him had waned yet.
Qian Bei was not surprised that Bai Chen asked him about Li Lin, the school’s one and only beautiful flower. This was because yesterday, he had seen Li Lin leave Bai Chen’s house in the morning.
He had to smile before he said, “I haven’t seen her. Weren’t you with her today?”
“She was not at school?” Bai Chen did not pay any mind to Qian Bei’s teasing.
“Yes, she was absent,” said Qian Bei, feeling slightly disappointed that his teasing hadn’t had an effect.
“Got it. Thank you so much. If there’s anything, then feel free to call this number. It’s mine.”
“All right, boss. Please take care.”
Qian Bei nodded. He thought he was right in that Bai Chen had likely bought himself a phone already. The boy then hung up.
Bai Chen dialed another phone number on his phone and made a call as soon as Qian Bei hang up. This was the number of Xu Xue Ning—the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life.
She was also a strong cultivator. Otherwise, she would not have been to fly in the sky using a flying sword.
Bai Chen could, of course, remember her phone number like Qian Bei’s.
The phone rang for a long while, but no one picked up in the end.
Bai Chen tried calling again, but the result was the same. No one picked up.
“She’s probably busy,” Bai Chen said to himself before he gave up on calling her.
He could not think of any explanations other than the fact that she must be busy. It would be best for him not to disturb her at this time.
He stared at the phone in his hand for a while before thinking that having money was also important.
“After getting back from Dong Hai Island, I’ll have to find a way to earn some cash,” Bai Chen decided.
