Chapter 178: Chapter 178: No Time, I Need to Study Hard
Bai Ze stared straight at the several spirit talismans on Bai Chuwei’s desk, his eyes heated with excitement.
These weren’t just a few talismans, they were life-saving treasures!
Grandpa is so biased!
Bai Ze swallowed hard, unable to resist saying, “Weiwei, these spirit talismans seem even more effective than the ones at the auction. My master has even tasked me with buying some spirit talismans.”
Bai Ze had been practicing martial arts at the Qingxuan Sect up in the mountains, and this time he had taken a leave to not only meet his new cousin but also to attend the Haicheng auction to snap up a few spirit talismans.
Bai Chuwei glanced disdainfully at Bai Ze’s peace charm and agreed wholeheartedly, “I also think it’s better to buy at the auction, you should come with me.”
No wonder, in the original story, Bai Ze suffered serious injuries and could barely survive against a mere hundred thugs, despite wearing a peace charm. His master must be a half-baked charlatan whose talismans were of little use.
“Sure,” Bai Ze nodded repeatedly, now full of curiosity about his cousin, Chuwei.
Chuwei asked with great interest, “I wonder how much those spirit talismans at the auction sell for?”
Bai Ze explained, “They’re graded. The lowest quality starts at at least one hundred thousand, but top-grade spirit talismans can go for one to two million each.”
Spirit talismans can be used just by carrying them, but spiritual medicines and jade are raw materials; ordinary people wouldn’t know how to use them, so they’re even more expensive.
Bai Chuwei looked at the spirit talismans on the desk and had an idea…
Bai Shang smiled, “In that case, big brother, you accompany Weiwei to the auction. I need to stop by the company for a bit.”
Chuwei smiled with a deeper meaning, “Coming here must be for more than just that, right, Second Brother Shang?”
Bai Shang nodded, “Yes, I was thinking of talking to Grandpa about picking a good day to add your name into the Bai Family’s genealogy.”
In ancient times, women had no right to be included in the family genealogy. But the Bai Family was different from other noble families; for thousands of years, regardless of gender, descendants of the Bai Family were recorded in the genealogy.
Being entered into the genealogy meant true recognition by the clan.
Upon hearing this, Chuwei chuckled lightly. A whooshing sound came as the door was pushed open from outside. Bai Yinyin, cheeks flaming red with anger, shouted, “Want to be included in my Bai Family’s genealogy? No way!”
It was just too weird.
Since Chuwei moved into the house, one bizarre incident after another had occurred. Chuwei was a disaster star; why should she be allowed into the Bai Family’s genealogy?
Chuwei’s smile turned slightly cold, and her tone was firm, “I don’t care whether I’m written into the genealogy or not, but I can make sure you’re removed from it. Want to try?”
The certainty in her voice sent a chill through Yinyin’s body, as if Chuwei could make it happen no matter what. Yinyin screamed and ran outside.
Chuwei gave Bai Guofu face, considering that Yinyin was about to sit her college entrance exams, she couldn’t be bothered to deal with her… but she made no promises after those exams…
Bai Shang and Bai Ze exchanged glances. Bai Ze arranged to pick up Chuwei the next evening to go to the auction together.
As soon as the cousins left, Chuwei received a phone call.
Duan Feihan’s voice was calm and steady, “Are you free tomorrow evening?”
Chuwei complained internally, she was free every day!
Could she tell Duan Feihan that she was going to the auction? Not only did the villain hesitate to be her lackey, but he also nagged her to study hard all the time.
Chuwei blurted out, “I’m not free, I have to study.” Thɪs chapter is updated by N0veI.Fiɾe.net
Duan Feihan frowned upon seeing two auction admission tickets on the table.
“Alright, prioritize your studies.”
He would go to the auction and buy the spiritual medicine Snow Lotus for her.
