The archaeological excavation in Zhongzhou was quite urgent this time, as they said it was suddenly discovered by a high school planning to build a gymnasium, and not only that, they also found a thieves’ tunnel.
After discussing it, the Archaeological Bureau decided to prepare for an emergency rescue excavation, so it was quite urgent.
Professors from the Archaeology Department of Imperial University had to rush over there as soon as they finished their final exams.
"Bai Chuwei, the school will reimburse you for round-trip airfare. How about you come directly with us to Zhongzhou this time?" Professor Sun suggested with a smile.
The old man had won a round against Professor Li from the Mathematics Department, and his heart was full of joy, which made his tone much lighter.
Bai Chuwei’s delicate brows furrowed slightly as she pondered for a moment and said, "No need, I want to go back to Haicheng first, then head over."
Professor Sun nodded, "Alright then, just remember to be there within three days at the latest."
Professor Sun clicked his tongue a few times inwardly, feeling somewhat emotional. Bai Chuwei still seemed like a child, probably thinking of her family, right?
Professor Sun didn’t linger and flew directly with his colleagues to the archaeological site in Zhongzhou.
Bai Chuwei didn’t want to think about the Bai Family at all. What was there to miss about Bai Guofu and his younger relatives? She had seen countless such relatives during her five thousand years.
Bai Chuwei touched her chin, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.
In no time at all, Bai Chuwei, with Xue Qiu in tow, arrived at the Duan Family’s traditional Chinese villa in Haicheng.
She walked into Duan Feihan’s courtyard as if she owned the place, while Xue Qiu’s little paws clung to the edge of Bai Chuwei’s pocket. Its jewel-blue eyes widened as it started squeaking, "A walking Spiritual Qi Repository, truly lives up to the name!"
The ancestral matriarch hadn’t visited the Duan Family in so long, yet the environment in Duan Feihan’s outer courtyard... was nearly the same as the little cottage Bai Chuwei had on Yunwu Mountain!
Yet around her little cottage on Yunwu Mountain, she had her own painstakingly crafted Zhenshan Gathering Spirit Array, which attracted the natural energies of Yunwu Mountain, making it like a dwelling of Immortals.
And this one at Duan Feihan’s place... was all natural!
Once the Soul Locking Array inside her body was released, the Spiritual Energy surged with terrific ferocity.
Bai Chuwei clicked her tongue a few times as she went in. There was nobody in the bedroom, not even that big stupid snake to be seen.
A hint of surprise flashed through Bai Chuwei’s beautiful eyes. Just as she was about to leave, a servant who came to clean the courtyard screamed in shock, "Bai... Miss Bai? You, you’re home?"
Before Bai Chuwei could reply, the servant immediately ran outside to report.
The butler was utterly confused and hurried over, having not seen Bai Chuwei enter through the main gate.
"Miss Bai, are you here to see the Fourth Master? He... he said he was going to the Imperial Capital," the butler said with a puzzled face.
Did their Fourth Master buy a plane ticket to the Imperial Capital?
A slight curve involuntarily appeared at the corners of Bai Chuwei’s lips.
It seems... she and Feihan had the same idea?
She had specifically returned to Haicheng to see him, while he had gone to the Imperial Capital to meet her?
And they just missed each other ? Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novel✶fire.net
Bai Chuwei nodded in satisfaction. Very good, indeed worthy of being her future companion; their minds were in the same place.
Bai Chuwei could hear Xingye, that boy, happily running around the lawn with Erha. She shrugged her shoulders and said to the butler, "Since Duan Feihan isn’t home, I’ll be leaving first."
Xingye was having a blast, and she did not feel like seeing the other members of the Duan Family.
Just as Bai Chuwei took a step away, the loud and forceful voice of the elder Mr. Duan came from not far away, "Miss Bai, may we talk?"
Bai Chuwei was intrigued, "Oh? What would you like to talk about?"
Elder Mr. Duan stared intently at Bai Chuwei’s radiant face and suddenly asked, "Do you have any intentions of getting
