Chapter 223: Why Do I Always Get Caught by Duan Feihan?
The Young Matriarch
The Bai Family received a wedding invitation, which clearly stated, âInviting the Bai patriarch, Bai Hongguang and his wife Liu Man, and their daughter Miss Yinyin to attend the wedding.â
Chuweiâs name was nowhere to be mentioned.
Bai Yinyin held the invitation with a sneaky smile, while Bai Guofu was fuming with anger.
What was the meaning of this? They dare not invite the founding ancestor of the Bai Family?
Bai Chuwei calmly ate her cherries, âWhy are you getting angry, Xiaofu? The invitation was written by Tong Yunrou, not the Duan Family, and besides, I donât plan to go anyway.â
On the day of the wedding, the person Tong Yunrou probably least wanted to see would be her.
Bai Hongguang, who was beside them, had a thought and immediately said, âHow about this? Yinyin and Dad, you two go. I wonât attend either.â
Bai Chuwei gave Bai Hongguang a meaningful look, and Bai Hongguang explained to a puzzled Bai Guofu, âLiu Man is still in the hospital, itâs one hundred days for a bone to heal, and I want to take care of her.â
Bai Yinyinâs heart skipped a beat, looking doubtfully at Bai Hongguang. Did she not know what kind of man her father was? Him taking care of her mother seemed impossible, right?
âDad, youâ¦â
With a âdingââ, a notification sound for an incoming bank transfer echoed from a cellphone.
Bai Yinyin swallowed, realizing her father had transferred money to her again, and not a small sum this timeâit was a full fifty thousand.
Bai Yinyin found herself hesitating.
If her mother knew about her fatherâs affairs, at most there would be some quarreling and she wouldnât dare to divorce. Now, with her mother sick in the hospital, if she told her mother about her fatherâs philandering at this time, it might worsen her motherâs condition, right?
Besides, her⦠she had her high school exams in a month and needed a quiet study environment. She couldnât let them keep arguing over this at home and disturb her studies, could she?
Bai Yinyin held her phone close and bowed her head, setting a small goal for herself; she would tell Liu Man after her exams were over.
Bai Chuwei smiled with prolonged meaning, Bai Yinyin truly was Liu Manâs good daughter.@@novelbin@@
Liu Man might not be a good person, but she was exceptionally good to Bai Yinyin, her only daughter, always thinking of the best for her. And Bai Yinyin⦠ts, ts.
Hopefully, her foster mother will be able to withstand the shock in the future.
Bai Chuwei had no time to burst the bubble, carrying a cloth bag filled with vegetables and walking outside.
Bai Chuwei had the driver take her to Juxian Pavilion, sitting in the back of the car she received a call from Duan Feihan.
The manâs voice was like the slow strains of a cello, transmitted through the wireless with a distinct flavor, âWhere are you?â
Bai Chuwei didnât even think before immediately replying, âIâm studying.â
Whenever encountering Duan Feihan, no matter the excuse, saying she was studying was always the right answer.
After all, Duan Feihan always hoped she would focus on her studies!
Duan Feihan said indifferently, âAlright then.â
Bai Chuwei slightly curved her lips; sure enough, claiming she was studying meant Duan Feihan wouldnât come to bother her.
The car arrived at the entrance of Juxian Pavilion, and shortly after, a black sedan also pulled up, conveniently parking next to theirs.
Bai Chuwei furrowed her brows and immediately looked over at the black sedanâ
The sedan window rolled down, revealing the manâs handsome, refined profile with a perfectly curved jawline.
Bai Chuwei: â???â
Duan Feihan?
Bai Chuwei really felt defeated. How could they have met like this?
Duan Feihan got out of the car, approached her, and asked, âYou come to the restaurant to study?â
Bai Chuwei didnât understand why every time she claimed she was studying, she would get caught by Duan Feihan?
Why did she, an ancestor who had lived for more than five thousand years, need to study?
Bai Chuwei sighed, âI came to Juxian Pavilion to look for Cao Jinhai about something.â
Duan Feihan commented, âWhat a coincidence, I have a dinner engagement at Juxian Pavilion tonight.â
