Chapter 341 Not An Illusion
An unknown amount of time passed by and there was no further movement from both Bai Chen and Long Xu In.
Bai Chen stood still, looking at Long Xu In’s beautiful back to imprint that image into his mind.
Even though his heart ached, he was glad to be able to protect her from the shadow that no light could reach.
As for Long Xu In, she was standing there with tears running without halt down her face. Then, she grabbed the left side of her chest with her delicate hand. It was where her heart was.
Her heart was racing so fast, it was as if it would burst right out of her chest!
She could not stop trembling. The images that she saw in her head shook her.
She suddenly asked herself whether, if she had been there, would she have been courageous enough to give her life for Bai Chen?
“I… I…” She said through her trembling lips. She was certainly not confident about it.
However, she never knew that the future her actually did not hesitate at all to protect Bai Chen with her life.
Time went by slowly. Long Xu In was still standing there. Tears still ran down her face without halt.
‘T…The images that I saw were real. They weren’t illusions or hallucinations!’
That thought popped into Long Xu In’s mind. Though she did not know where this belief had come from or how it had come into her head, she did not even think for a second that these images were illusions.
Suddenly, the pain in her heart reached its peak when she saw the two images.
“Ohhh!” She cried out loud. Then, she quickly turned back and ran.
She ran to where Bai Chen was. Without any hesitation, Long Xu In leapt towards Bai Chen and embraced him with many complicated and mixed feelings!
Bai Chen, who was smiling bitterly, opened his eyes widely. He trembled.
“X…Xu In!” His lips trembled.
He did not expect her to run back and hug him like this.
To be honest, this surprised him a lot. A moment after that, the feeling changed to sadness. He raised both of his hands up as he wanted to hug her back to console her.
However, he quickly put his hands down since he did not have enough courage to do it.
“Ohhh… Bai Chen! I know now why you’re also in love with those girls. I know now. And you told me you love me, too. Is that true?!” Long Xu In cried. She hugged Bai Chen tightly.
Her embrace was so tight, it was as if she was afraid that Bai Chen would leave her for a faraway place if she let go. It was as if they would not cross paths with each other again.
In her heart right now, there was no disappointment left at all. There was only fear. She loved him deeply. She did not want him to love only Xu Xue Ning and Li Lin. She did not want to be left behind.
The images that she had just seen let her know that she was nothing compared to the two of them.
Although she knew that there was no comparison, Bai Chen still loved her as he loved those two. That was why she’d changed her mind. She did not want to leave him. She accepted his choice to love three women at the same time. She chose to stay by his side!
“It’s true!” Bai Chen quickly answered without hesitation.
At that time, a cool breeze blew passed him and forced his hands to go around Long Xu In.
Bai Chen was surprised at what had happened. Then, she smiled happily. “Thank you…”
Of course, he was thanking his future self. He saw a faded white shadow smiling at him before it quickly vanished.
It was easy to know that it was his future self who’d made Long Xu In change her mind.
Long Xu In slowly raised her head up. Her face was wet with tears. She looked at Bai Chen with a blushing face. She closed her eyes and slightly parted her rosy lips.
Bai Chen blinked several times. He did not have to be smart to know what he should do. His heart pounded faster. Without hesitation, he gently kissed Long Xu In’s lips.
“Mmmm…” Long Xu In’s eyelids trembled a little. Tears ran down her cheeks.
She did not open her eyes. She tasted the flavour of the kiss from the man she loved with a heart that was full of joy.
................................................
Two hours later, Bai Chen arrived home with a smile on his face.
How could he not smile? He and Long Xu In finally understood each other. She could now accept that he was also in love with two other girls.
In the last two hours, he’d had a happy time with her. They talked about when they first met and how they had come to love each other. Then, they’d parted ways.
However, before they had, Bai Chen had given her the blue bracelet, the very same one that his future self had given to him.
Long Xu In regarded the blue jade bracelet, as Bai Chen’s heartfelt gift. She told him that she would wear it at all times.
Bai Chen felt relieved. If she kept it with her all the time, he could be certain that nothing could harm her.
“The next thing I should do is to explain things to Li Lin, just like I did with Xu In. Then, I’ll confess my feelings to her.”
Bai Chen talked to himself while he was sitting on his bed.
He was now in his bedroom. He would do what he’d told himself just now tomorrow.
After everything here was settled, he would go to Beijing right away.
He was going to take his revenge on Wang Chengye and the Wang family, one of the five big families in Beijing!
That was his ultimate goal in the first place!
It was not only Wang Chengye and the Wang family, but also the Xi famly—they were the new targets of his vengeance. As for Jing Cha Secret Organisation, he did not care much about it anymore.
This was because Jing Cha the Legendary had already been dealt with by his future self; the organisation, now lacking its powerful supporter, would vanish in no time. It certainly would not be able to get back on its feet in this limited a time period!
