The Young Matriarch

The Bai Family wasn’t poor, just that the patriarch believed in frugality; it was only that they were expected to make a smartphone worth eight or nine thousand last for three to four years without replacing it.

The Mo Yun 10pro was priced as high as thirty to forty thousand, with the top-end model costing 48,888! Even for Bai Yinyin, her family wouldn’t buy it for her.

How could Bai Chuwei afford to use one?

Bai Chuwei looked down at the WeChat message from the other party, while Bai Yinyin was screeching incessantly next to her.

“Who gave this to you? Let me see if it’s genuine!”

Bai Chuwei, her ears aching from the noise, frowned and raised her hand, giving Bai Yinyin a pat on the shoulder, “You’re too loud.”

The screeching inside the car stopped abruptly; Bai Yinyin, with terror, clasped her own throat and discovered to her horror that she had lost her voice…

This morning, Deng Man had said Bai Chuwei was wicked, perhaps a fairy, and she hadn’t believed it! But now there was proof, it was true.

“Mmm—Mmm—Mmm—”

She couldn’t talk, nor could she even make a crying sound!!

All Bai Chuwei did was to cast a silence charm—peace and quiet at last. She lowered her head, looking at the incoming messages, thinking it was a classmate who wanted to make a medical appointment, but it turned out to be someone else…

[Cultivate Morality to Keep Qi Family in Peace: Hello, I am Duan Xiuqi, the endorser for Mo Yun V20. Do you have a misunderstanding about me?]

Clearly, Duan Xiuqi had received news that his endorsement had been revoked.

[Your esteemed ancestor: Your face just bothers me too much.]

Having sent this message, Bai Chuwei ignored Bai Yinyin, who was crying from fright, got off the bus, and went home.

Bai Yinyin cried soundlessly, hurriedly getting off the bus to chase after Bai Chuwei.

Bai Chuwei is a fairy! She turned me into a mute!

[Cultivate Morality to Keep Qi Family in Peace: ???]

By the time Duan Xiuqi finished sending that message, he noticed a red dot and realised that he, a film emperor adored for twenty years, had been blocked…

A gloomy and eerie atmosphere permeated the nanny van; Tong Yunrou, with caution, ventured, “Xiuqi, are you, are you okay?”

Duan Xiuqi cursed unhappily under his breath, “Ungrateful!”

Having been a rascal since childhood, in his life, besides the woman Bai Chu, he didn’t even listen to his father. He didn’t want to be involved if he found out who was behind this—he’d have to teach them a lesson!

With his mood soured, Duan Xiuqi casually asked, “I heard you’re looking into someone?”

At just that sentence, Tong Yunrou’s face changed dramatically, mumbling hesitantly, “No, let’s go see the old master instead. I heard he’s having an herbal bath and acupuncture today.”

She absolutely couldn’t let Duan Xiuqi find out she was investigating Bai Chu!

With their own thoughts, after getting out of the car, they walked together towards the courtyard of the old master Duan. By now, the yard was already filled with people.

Duan Feihan stood in the corner, the soft light of the spring evening sun spilling across his shoulders, his aura as placid and distinguished as a pine tree.

Duan Xiuqi suddenly thought that if Duan Feihan entered the entertainment industry, perhaps there would be no room for him as the film emperor, right?

Duan Xiuqi looked away and asked the butler, “Didn’t you say the doctor named Bai Chuwei was supposed to come for father’s herbal bath and acupuncture today? Where is she? I’d like to thank her.”

As soon as Duan Xiuqi finished speaking, Liu Zhen stepped forward, chest out, surrounded by people, sporting the proud demeanor of a Divine Doctor.

Tong Yunrou had come to despise anyone with the surname Bai and naturally disliked the Bai Chuwei she had never met. Seeing Liu Zhen, her heart brightened; he was the National Medical Saint she had invited with great effort!

Tong Yunrou had heard that Bai Chuwei was around Duan Xingye’s age and didn’t believe a mere teenager could possess any medical skills. She knew when she saw Old Liu returning, that Doctor Bai was of no use.

Right away, Tong Yunrou sneered, “I knew it would take Old Liu to handle it, what medical skills can a high school student have?”
