Chapter 175: Grandpa is So Biased

The ladies downstairs were so scared that they lost all color in their faces, nearly grabbing their purses and running off.

Could it be an earthquake? Or had the Bai Family’s house exploded?

The next moment, a loud, joyous, and excited laugh came from the second floor: “Hahaha… I did it!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Did it?

A burly young man appeared, leaping down from the second floor in his excitement.

The noblewomen and socialites on site screamed in shock, hands over their mouths!

Bai Ze landed with ease, without a trace of injury.

He stood up, his eyes brimming with wild joy, and his bronze face suddenly changed as he began to cry openly, “I… I’ve succeeded in Qi Refinement! I’ve been studying martial arts in Qingxuan Mountain for twenty years, and today I finally made a breakthrough in Qi Refinement…”

A socialite lady exclaimed, shocked: “Qi Refinement? You… you’re cultivating immortality?”

What the fuck, could people actually cultivate immortality in this world?

Another wealthy lady laughed: “What cultivation… ”

She couldn’t even finish the word “immortality” when the entire hall fell into dead silence.

Pair after pair of eyes watched in shock as Bai Ze casually picked up a glass and crushed it into powder with his fingers; the remaining sip of water turned into vapor…

Dead silence.

After a minute of deathly silence in the hall, a wealthy lady swallowed hard, finally managing to say, “The Bai Family… sure has its share of capable people.”

Bai Shang clenched his teeth, patted Bai Ze on the shoulder, and rushed upstairs with his briefcase.

This deal was in the bag!

The Tong Family was about to face disaster, weren’t they? He didn’t mind scooping up a good chunk of money in the process.

Bai Shang put on his glasses and kept calling his assistants and department managers from his study, his mustache quivering with each word.

Didn’t the Tong Family have a big project recently? Good, previously his company didn’t dare to covet it, but now he couldn’t be blamed for having ideas…

Bai Shang was exceedingly good at business; he just needed someone to push him from behind, and now Bai Chuwei had given him this opportunity!

The more Bai Shang strategized, the more excited he became—if the Tong Family really faced trouble, his Bai enterprise could at least take over half of their business!

“Bai Chuwei—!” Bai Shang slammed his hand on the desk as he stood up.

Outside the door, Bai Ze knocked, “Second brother, do you want to come with me to uncle’s place? I want to go see cousin Weiwei.”

Go! Of course, he had to go.

The afternoon tea party downstairs had ended, and a group of noble ladies and socialites left reluctantly.

If they opened a beauty salon like this, wouldn’t the doors be worn out from all the traffic?

Bai Chuwei felt that life could sometimes be difficult to endure; at school she didn’t want to study, and at home the only things to do besides concocting medicines were feeding birds and hamsters.

Bai Chuwei leaned on the table listlessly, feeding millet to the small birds at the window.

Footsteps sounded outside, and Bai Chuwei paused in her bird-feeding, a smile that was not quite a smile appearing on her beautiful face.

The nanny, Aunt Chen, pursed her lips and said to the two men, “Young masters, Miss Chuwei lives here, I’ll be leaving now.”

Bai Ze and Bai Shang couldn’t believe it—Bai Chuwei was actually living in the attic?

Bai Shang took a deep breath and was about to knock when the door—next instant—opened by itself.

What the fuck!

This was definitely not an automatic door.

A languid and ethereal voice came from inside: “Come in.”

The moment they entered, they saw Bai Chuwei lounging at the table, playing with the bird.

So… who opened the door just now?

Bai Shang inspected Bai Chuwei’s bedroom closely; it wasn’t that different from a typical girl’s room except for a faint medicinal scent.

Bai Chuwei turned her head, sitting in her chair without getting up, her demeanor completely lordly as she asked with interest, “What do you want to tell me?”

Bai Ze looked at his mysterious new cousin, his mind going blank. He finally managed to say, “Grandpa… Grandpa is so biased.”
