Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Ancestor, Are You Back from the Date?

Duan Feihan touched his reddened earlobe, hung up the phone, and left a message: “Study hard.”

Bai Chuwei: “…”

The little rascal, he wouldn’t dare.

After school, Zhou Ying’s red sedan parked next to Duan Feihan’s black car, and as soon as Zhou Ying saw Bai Chuwei carrying her backpack and walking out, she immediately got out of the car to greet her.

Who would have thought… such an esteemed person was still in high school.

Oh no, even if Bai Chuwei wore the uniform of Henghua First Middle School like the other students, she still stood out with a presence unlike any other student.

...

Zhou Ying said excitedly, “Miss Bai, did you get the news? They really found an Emperor’s tomb in the east side of the city. I heard that the entire archaeological community was shaken!”

That was no ordinary tomb, it was the tomb of a founding Emperor.

It was said that the tomb contained many masterpieces and excellent writings that hadn’t been seen before. If they could be made public, China would have many more poems and prose to boast of.

Bai Chuwei was indifferent, how could she not know?

The more composed Bai Chuwei was, the more mysterious and unpredictable Zhou Ying found her to be.

“You should have seen Li Qiang’s face when he found out it was an Emperor’s tomb beneath. He went pale as iron and even fainted from anger!” Zhou Ying swung her hair and was so excited that she nearly slapped her thigh, exclaiming how delightful it was!

It had been a long while since she had seen that scum Li Qiang get his comeuppance.

Li Qiang must be frantically worrying now, haha, the thought alone was thrilling to her.

Zhou Ying offered to treat them to a meal.

Zhou Ying indeed had to thank Duan Feihan. If it weren’t for doing business with President Duan and coincidentally meeting Bai Chuwei, the one in a frantic mess wouldn’t have been Li Qiang, but her!

Just the thought alone gave her a fright.

To express her gratitude, Zhou Ying gifted Bai Chuwei a light blue dress from the current season.

Zhou Ying had good taste, at least Bai Chuwei was not averse to it.

“President Duan, I heard you like to read, so I’d like to give you some books to thank you,” Zhou Ying offered Duan Feihan some rare foreign original edition books as a thank you for introducing her to the esteemed Bai Chuwei.

Duan Feihan glanced at the books in his hand and his face darkened slightly. “How to Be a Conversationalist” and “How High Emotional Intelligence is Developed.”

No need, thank you.

After dinner, Duan Feihan dropped Bai Chuwei off at home.

Bai Guofu had gone to bed early for his health routine, Bai Yinyin was studying in her room, and Liu Man was resting in her bedroom due to a foot injury.

As soon as Bai Chuwei entered the house, she looked with interest at Bai Hongguang and the nanny, Auntie Chen, who were making eyes at each other.

The pair, startled by Bai Chuwei’s silent entrance, hurriedly separated.

Bai Hongguang scolded in a low voice, “Bai Chuwei, how come you don’t make a sound?”

Bai Chuwei lazily smiled, “I may not make a sound, but it seems foster father is quite vocal.”

What did that mean?

Bai Chuwei picked up a peach from the table, “Foster father, Auntie Chen, you know I have medical skills, right?”

The two nodded; they had heard of Bai Chuwei’s medical skills but had never seen them in action.

Bai Chuwei’s gaze circled Auntie Chen’s stomach, and she smiled, “You should get a checkup.”

With that, Bai Chuwei took a bite of the peach and leisurely went upstairs.

Seeing the green plants at the entrance of Bai Hongguang and Liu Man’s bedroom on the second floor, Bai Chuwei mused, “How green.”

The key was that Bai Yinyin, their daughter, was amazing. She knew her mother had been cuckolded but said nothing for the sake of money.

Shaking her head, Bai Chuwei went up to the attic on the third floor and pushed the door open.

Xue Qiu was sitting on the desk, fiddling with a handheld computer with its four little paws. Upon hearing the door open, it immediately turned its head to look at Bai Chuwei and squeaked angrily, “Ancestor, you’re finally back from your date. The video you made has been taken down after someone reported it.”
