Chapter 105 I Won't Let Go

In her past life, she met a scumbag, and he died young.

She never intended to steal another woman's man; it was only because he had been lonely and destitute in his past life that she had such thoughts.

She wanted to pull the person in front of her out of the thread of fate at all costs, but she knew his true nature better; he was not someone who could be easily entered into her heart.

She didn't dare to push too hard.

Now that they had met, she believed that their connection would not end there, and she only looked forward to the future.

Let go? Haha, impossible.

Hearing her such a small request, Jiang Chen couldn't quite describe the feeling in his heart. "Okay, then I'll treat you to lunch. We'll go to a state-run restaurant." There was a bittersweet feeling, and a hint of disappointment.

"Alright, then I won't keep Comrade Jiang any longer. I still have to go to work. I'll go to the state-run restaurant to find Comrade Jiang at noon. Take care, Comrade Jiang."

At this moment, Bai Jing's face returned to its usual indifference, and her gaze towards him became calm and undisturbed, unlike the burning passion she had shown when she first met him.

He naturally sensed her change and was initially happy, but when that gaze stopped following him, he felt a pang of sadness.

His hand unconsciously touched his heart; he had so much to say, but he didn't know how to begin.

"Okay, then I'll leave first."

After saying that, he didn't dare look at her and strode out of the courtyard.

Watching his departing figure, Bai Jing's calm face broke into a big smile.

"Xiao Jin, he's not entirely unmoved by me either. It seems my plans might finally succeed." She's only sixteen, and even though she'll be seventeen soon, she's still young and has plenty of time to outlast him.

It seems she needs to make herself more outstanding so that he will know she has the ability to be his equal.

Although she knew he was a soldier in her past life, she had no idea what he did or where he served.

In their past life, he had no wife; in this life, she has no husband. Why can't they have a passionate relationship?
At least, isn't that what she hopes for?
[Host, do you want him to be your man? Then you'll have to work hard, he's no ordinary man.] Xiao Jin looked up the man; well, he was outstanding, but also quite miserable.

“That’s right, Xiao Jin. It seems I need to earn more money so I can become even better. Xiao Jin, give me one of the repair pills you mentioned last time. I don’t aspire to become a god, but I hope to be on par with him.”

This is the first time Bai Jing has wanted to become stronger because of someone.

Even when she was oppressed, she never intended to surpass ordinary people.

[Received.] Spending money makes Xiao Jin happy, hehe.

Soon, a white pill appeared in Bai Jing's system space, emitting a faint halo.

Anyone who didn't know better would think it was a magic pill.

"Little Jin, I hope this pill won't make me leave Earth like Chang'e after I take it." Bai Jing asked, her heart filled with unease as she looked at the pill.

Xiao Jin rolled her eyes indistinctly. [Host, you're dreaming! Immortal pills? You're dreaming. Who wouldn't want an immortal pill? I want a system too!]

The energy within the elixir is so immense that even the gods would envy it if it were to absorb it.

Bai Jing swallowed hard. Fine, she was overthinking it.

After swallowing a pill, Bai Jing quickly began to move.

"Xiao Jin, you didn't say that this stuff would give you diarrhea."

Indeed, not long after the pill entered her stomach, her stomach began to churn. If she hadn't walked quickly, she probably would have soiled her pants.

Xiao Jin rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky in the system. [Host, didn't you hear the name? It's called the Repair Pill. That means it's a pill that repairs your body. Plus, it has medicinal power—it can change your body. Do you think there wouldn't be any reaction?]

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing wanted to pull Xiao Jin out of her mind and give it a good beating, since it was just too annoying.

"Ah."

The diarrhea didn't make Bai Jing feel too bad; on the contrary, it made her feel quite relaxed. However, apart from the stench of the latrine, she also had a foul, unpleasant odor emanating from her.

She had planned to go to work soon, but now it seems she won't be able to leave the house before noon.

After washing and cleaning, Bai Jing underwent a complete transformation.

Although I had improved my nutrition before, the deficiencies in my body couldn't be made up for in a short time. I was thin, short, had a sallow complexion, and my energy was nowhere near that of a normal person.

Of course, these days, how many people can truly be well-fed and clothed? Everyone is lacking in energy and spirit, but none are as severely lacking as she is.

Now, Bai Jing looked at the person in the mirror and dared not recognize her at all, after all, she didn't look like this in her previous life.

She has completely transformed into a beautiful woman.

"Xiao Jin, is this me?" She couldn't believe it at all.

【nature. 】

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Bai Jing's fair and delicate face radiated beauty.

Can you believe that she was less than 1.5 meters tall at the age of sixteen or seventeen?
But now, she clearly noticed that she had grown taller, as her trouser legs were noticeably shorter.

She even found that her shoes were a bit too tight.

It has grown at least five centimeters.

In her past life, she never reached 1.5 meters tall until her death, but now she actually does. She believes she can grow even taller.

With hope in her heart, Bai Jing turned around and around in front of the half-length mirror. She may have been facing Jiang Chen with great passion.

In fact, his face and overall demeanor were not a good match for Bai Jing, either before or now.

Knowing his character and nature, Bai Jing dared to have those improper thoughts.

Now, she is more confident. After all, with her own strength, she can aspire to be someone who surpasses her.

For example, Jiang Chen.

She was determined to win him over in this lifetime.

Bai Jing's state of mind has changed; she exudes a confident glow that is captivating.

After a quick makeover and change of clothes, Bai Jing wasn't afraid of scaring Jiang Chen, since they didn't know her well enough to suspect what she was really like.

Seeing that it was almost time, Bai Jing grabbed her cloth bag and went out.

Where to go?

Naturally, I went to keep the appointment.

Although the police didn't see Bai Jing in the morning, they weren't busy, and Captain Lin didn't look for her either.

Bai Jing managed to fool them.

Jiang Chen was waiting at the entrance of the state-run restaurant early in the morning.

His eyes scanned the surroundings; anyone who didn't know him would think he was a doorman at a restaurant.

Only when a figure appeared in his eyes did the icy aura emanating from him completely dissipate.

A faint smile appeared on her face, as dazzling as the sunlight melting the frost on an iceberg.

Bai Jing spotted the dazzling man from afar and quickened her pace to run towards him.

One after another, more and more eye-catching figures appeared in the crowd, causing many people to stop and stare.

Bai Jing noticed something, but as she approached Jiang Chen, she saw his slightly furrowed brows.

"Comrade Jiang, I'm sorry, I'm not late, am I?" Bai Jing slowed her pace slightly as she walked towards him. The closer she got, the more pronounced the wrinkles on his brows became.

She thought it was her changes that aroused his suspicion.

"Comrade Jiang," she said again, her voice trembling with nervousness.

Jiang Chen also came to his senses. Although he was puzzled by her change, he didn't ask anything.

"Go in," he said coldly, then turned and headed towards the restaurant.
