Chapter 20: I Won’t Treat This Illness
Editor: Henyee Translations
“Bai Chuwei.”
Tong Qingyan frowned. “Bai Chuwei? The one from our school?”
The transfer student who just arrived and was extrely famous on the school forums on her first day? It was said that she had the eighth-grade syndro. She loved to lie and brag, and had even declared that Teacher Li was sick in front of all the students.
It might be due to the nurous ‘bad news’ related to her on her first day of school or perhaps because of a sense of crisis that she felt, but Tong Qingyan did not have a favourable impression about her.
Bai Chuwei looked at the female lead with great interest. All of a sudden, her lips curled up and she asked. “How are you related to Chen ihua?”
Tong Qingyan’s expression turned chilly. “Chen ihua is my grandmother who passed away ten years ago. Student Bai, how can you directly call out my grandmother’s na?”
So unmannered of her! Moreover, how did she get to know her grandmother’s na?
Bai Chuwei shook her head and sighed. If she knew that Chen ihua’s future granddaughter was Tong Qingyan, the female lead, she would not have helped her in the past.
Forty years ago, she happened to help a middle-aged woman, who had been abducted and sold to the mountain area for ten years. She had suffered from dostic abuse day and night before she managed to escape with great difficulty. Bai Chuwei found her to be pitiful and had offered shelter.
Who knew that her granddaughter would be the female lead of this novel? Bai Chuwei felt that she had made a mistake and should have exhorted more from her back then.
She lost all her interest in the topic and did not wish to acknowledge Tong Qingyan any longer. She lazily asked. “Where’s the patient?”
Duan Xingye hastily answered her. “My grandfather is in the backyard. Weiwei, I’ll lead you there.”
Tong Qingyan looked at Bai Chuwei’s departing view and could not help but bite her lips. No one had ever dared to ignore her or impolitely call out her grandmother’s na like this.
She looked at Duan Feihan and complained in a whiny tone. “Fourth young master, she…”
Duan Feihan’s cold voice cut her off. “She’s my esteed guest.”
Tong Qingyan was dumbfounded. Esteed guest? Why was Bai Chuwei an esteed guest whom Duan Feihan personally brought along?
Just as she wanted to ask further, he turned around and took long strides in the direction that Bai Chuwei had walked towards.
As Tong Qingyan stood rooted on the spot, she began to feel extrely uneasy.

Bai Chuwei followed Duan Xingye and walked through the small garden. She passed by the rockery where the flowers were blooming and gave off a pleasant fragrance.
She then looked around the surroundings and her expression beca increasingly odd, while Duan Xingye looked rather excited.
Bai Chuwei frowned and asked him. “Your family has always been staying here, or did you move here recently?”
Duan Xingye had no idea why Bai Chuwei asked that question. But he answered in a casual tone. “From the mont I was born, I’ve always stayed here.”
Bai Chuwei’s expression instantly darkened. By now, they had arrived at the backyard where the Duan Family’s old man was staying. There were bodyguards and anxious doctors in the yard, along with a faint sll of dicine and disinfectants in the air.
The bedroom door was open and she took a glimpse inside. She could vaguely see a white-haired old man with a sallow complexion, and it was evident that he did not have much ti left.
Bai Chuwei’s palm-sized face instantly turned black.
“I won’t treat this illness.”
Bai Chuwei uttered these words coldly and retraced her steps.
Duan Xingye: ???
“Weiwei, Doctor Bai, where are you heading? Why won’t you treat my grandfather? Please don’t leave.” Duan Xingye hastily chased after her.
However, Bai Chuwei was unexpectedly fast, to the extent that he suspected she had participated in running competitions in the past. In the end, Duan Xingye was unable to catch up with her.
A tall figure suddenly appeared before her and blocked her path. His magnetic voice slowly sounded from above her head. “Miss Bai, why are you leaving all of a sudden?”
