Chapter 389 Accidental Kiss
Chapter 389 Accidental Kiss
Xueer held the phone and felt very touched. This boss was so generous!
Bai Chen looked at Xue'er holding the phone box and staring at it blankly, so he said, "Take it out and change your phone card! Otherwise, you won't know who the caller is later!"
"Oh! Okay, I'll change it right away." After hearing this, Xueer hurried to the coffee table, half-knelt on the carpet, took the new cell phone out of the box, put it on the coffee table, then peeled off the back cover of her old antique, took out the battery, and then took out the phone card and wanted to put it into the new phone.
But Xueer tried to open the back cover of the new phone for a long time but failed. Her nails were sore and sweat broke out on her forehead, but she just couldn't open it.
Bai Chen couldn't bear to watch it anymore and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I, I have to open the back cover to put the phone card in, but I can't open it!" Xueer said.
Bai Chen then noticed that Xue'er's phone was the oldest model, and the battery was removable. This girl was too accommodating. This phone must be at least 20 years old! It could really be considered an antique.
He glanced at Xue'er and said, "The batteries in mobile phones nowadays cannot be removed. Give me the phone."
Xueer obediently handed the new phone to Bai Chen, and then Bai Chen found a thin needle from the phone box, and poked it into the small hole on the side of the phone. A card slot popped out on the side of the phone. He stretched out his hand and said, "Card." Xueer handed the phone card to Bai Chen. Bai Chen looked down and thought, it was too big!
Xue'er was also wondering, such a small card slot can't even fit a phone card! Bai Chen put down his phone and broke the phone card around, leaving only the chip in the middle. She asked nervously, "You broke it, can it still work?"
Bai Chen ignored her and directly put the card core into the card slot, then pressed the card slot back into the phone, turned it on and handed it to Xueer.
Xueer fiddled with it for a while and found that the information on the phone card was intact, and the phone had many more functions and excellent color clarity. She said excitedly, "That's great. The phone card is so damaged but it can still be used. This phone is really advanced."
"Silly Xue'er, all mobile phones nowadays are like this, just put in a card, how many years have you had that phone?"
"I've been using it for more than three years. I bought it from a second-hand dealer. It was cheap, but it's a pity that I've only used it for more than three years." Xue'er said regretfully.
"A new cell phone should be replaced after three years, not to mention yours is an antique that has been around for who knows how many times."
"I'd better keep it! It might be useful in case I leave here in the future."
Xue'er's unintentional words made Bai Chen feel distressed. What was going on in this girl's family? She had to shoulder the burden of supporting the family at such a young age, and she even bought a second-hand antique cell phone for the sake of saving money, which she used every day. He suddenly wanted to know her family background.
However, this little thing was too weak, and Bai Chen didn't dare to ask rashly. He could only ask tentatively: "I won't leave. By the way, Xue'er, what did those people do the day I rescued you?"
When this was mentioned, Xue'er's face tensed up instantly. "I don't know them either. They just came to the bar that day and said they were sent by my dad to find me."
"So you went with them? Are you too trusting? Do you know how dangerous it is? If they are bad guys, can you come back?" Bai Chen growled excitedly. He was really angry. He was angry that this girl didn't have a brain. If he hadn't shown up that night, Xue'er would have been in great danger! Bai Chen felt anxious just thinking about it.
"I, I didn't go with them. I was off work and they blocked my way. And..." Xue'er saw Bai Chen's angry look and she was a little scared. She spoke incoherently.
"What else?" Bai Chen asked in a deep voice with a frown.
"They said my dad told them that I was very good-looking, so, so they forcibly saw through my disguise of being ugly, and then, they had evil intentions towards me. Thanks to you for saving me, otherwise, I would have become a corpse." Xue'er's voice became softer and softer. Thinking back to the accident that night, her body was shaking and her eyes were filled with fear.
Bai Chen looked at Xue'er's trembling thin body and could not bear to question her loudly. He sighed, picked up Xue'er who was kneeling on the carpet, sat back on the sofa, and patted Xue'er's back, saying, "Be good, don't be afraid, it's all over. From now on, I'm here, and no one will dare to bully you."
After hearing what Bai Chen said, Xue'er couldn't control her tears anymore and she even cried out loud.
Bai Chen panicked. Why did she cry harder and harder? Did his behavior scare her? He opened his arms, not knowing what to do. He could only explain in a low voice: "Please, little ancestor, don't cry. I'm not trying to be frivolous with you. I just want to comfort you."
"Well, I, I know, you, you are a good person." Xue'er said intermittently while sobbing.
"Then why are you crying?"
"I, I am touched. I'm sorry. No one has ever cared about me so much, and no one has ever said they would protect me. I have to bear all my joys and sorrows, as well as my illnesses and falls on my own..." Xueer stopped crying and told the reason.
It turned out that this little girl was moved by him. It seemed that Xue'er's past life was really terrible. The more Bai Chen thought about it, the more distressed he felt. He reached out to wipe away the tears from Xue'er's eyes and whispered, "How did that group of people know that you worked in that bar?"
Xueer shook her head and said, "I'm also confused. They said it was my dad who told you, but my dad has been out of touch for several years. When he was alive, I was still a child and didn't work outside! Moreover, they said my dad used me to pay off his debts."
Bai Chen saw that Xue'er's tears were about to burst out again, so he quickly said, "You can't cry anymore, I'm about to be washed away by your tears."
Xue Er laughed and retorted, "It's not as exaggerated as you say!"
"Of course, look at what your eyes have become?" Bai Chen said as he picked up his new phone, turned on the camera and set it to selfie. He then put his other hand around Xue'er and faced the two of them.
Xue'er looked at herself in the high-definition camera. Her eyes were red with traces of tears at the corners of her eyes. Next to her was Bai Chen's handsome face. Her heart began to beat inexplicably. She didn't know if it was because she was shy or because she was beginning to fall in love.
Xueer lowered her head and tried to avoid the camera, but in panic she dodged in the wrong direction. She tilted her head and kissed Bai Chen on the cheek. Xueer was so scared that she quickly dodged again and wanted to escape the scene, but Bai Chen hugged her waist.
"What are you doing? You want to run away after doing something bad? What does that mean?" Bai Chen asked with a smirk on his face.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Doctor Bai, I didn't mean it. I'll wipe it for you, don't be angry." Xue'er's heart beat wildly uncontrollably. She thought Bai Chen was disgusted by the dirt, so she used her little hands to wipe Bai Chen's face.
Bai Chen was already feeling uncomfortable due to Xue'er's unexpected kiss, and the touch of Xue'er's cold little hand made his body tremble slightly. No, if this continued, he would not be able to control himself and kiss her back.
So Bai Chen grabbed the little hand that was playing tricks on his face, looked at Xue'er affectionately, and said softly: "It's okay, I don't blame you."
Xue'er looked at Bai Chen's deep eyes and almost fell in love with them. She lowered her head hurriedly and whispered, "Well, I remembered that I still have some work to do. You should take a rest first!" Then she hurried out of the living room...
