Chapter 43: Call Sister
Editor: Henyee Translations
Bai Chuwei: May the both of you live a long and happy life together??
Bai Chuwei glanced at Duan Feihan. He was standing outside the entrance and his expression was normal.
Tsk… he was indeed the future villain. His ability to remain calm in unexpected situations was really good!
The boss’s cheeks were flushed due to excitent and he dashed out of the shop with the order list. He stood in the middle of the plaza with a loudspeaker and yelled loudly. “Attention! Co imdiately and prepare dicinal ingredients. A huge business just ca in, a huge business!”
All the different suppliers in the Spiritual dicine Hall were shocked and the place turned into a state of commotion.
Most importantly… that black card belonged to the Duan Family! An illustrious family was not going to scam them.
Bai Chuwei and Duan Feihan were warmly received by the staff and the apprentices enthusiastically delivered tea to them.
Bai Chuwei took a sip from her cup and gave a sidelong glance to the man next to her. “Mr Duan, aren’t you curious?”
“No.”
The man rubbed the sandalwood Buddha beads on his left wrist, whose pattern was soon about to disappear due to frequent rubbing. He said in a low voice, “Miss Bai, you can spend as much as you wish.”
Duan Feihan was soone who had been involved in business for quite so ti. How could he possibly not know the problem about Bai Chuwei’s list?
There were hundreds of different types of dicinal ingredients and every single one of them was precious. Moreover, she had requested ten kilograms of every item.
Bai Chuwei’s smile gradually deepened. All of a sudden, she put down the tea cup and drew closer to the man’s handso face. The breath she exhaled could be felt on his face. Duan Feihan’s expression changed slightly and he shifted his gaze away.
“Mr Duan has so much trust in ? Aren’t you afraid that I might harm your father by giving an incorrect prescription?”
The young lady’s breath whispered against his face and a faint dicinal fragrance seed to entice him. Duan Feihan’s palm on his thigh had tightened unconsciously, wrinkling his neat and tidy trousers.
Duan Feihan articulated in a clear voice as he said, “I trust you.”
Bai Chuwei looked at the man’s calm and handso face, but she could nor discern any sort of emotion from him. However, she noticed that the tips of his ear had turned red.
Aww! He was still as adorable as he had been in his young age.
The cold-looking little boy was awkward and proud at the sa ti, but had pretended to look calm. At that ti, with great difficulty, he had made himself sound casual. “Since you want a hug, I’ll let you give one.”
The image of this tall and attractive man in front of her overlapped in Bai Chuwei’s mind with that of the adorable little kid from her mories. Instantly, the alienation she felt towards him, lessened.
“Miss Bai?”
Bai Chuwei recovered and curled her red lips. “There’s no need to call by that na anymore.”
Duan Feihan’s expression changed and an unknown warm current surged from his heart and his thin lips moved. “Then I’ll call you…”
Before he could manage to say, ‘Weiwei’, Bai Chuwei had said, “Call ?sister.”1
That was what this adorable little kid called her in the past. Regardless of how Duan Xiuqi tried to correct him and coax him to call her ‘sister-in-law’, he only called her ‘sister’.
Duan Feihan: …
Duan Feihan’s usual calm and composed face suddenly cracked and he was montarily stunned.
What?
Sister?
He was twenty-four this year and Bai Chuwei seed to be of the sa age as Duan Xingye, which ant that she had yet to reach the age of eighteen!
Just as Bai Chuwei and Duan Feihan gazes clashed, a dical apprentice ca running in.
When he saw the close proximity and the ambiguous atmosphere around, he was slightly embarrassed. In an awkward voice, he said, “Sorry for disturbing your uh, personal ti, but sothing has happened.”
Bai Chuwei’s attention was pulled away by that dical apprentice. She furrowed her brows as she asked. “What’s the problem?”
The apprentice hastily said, “It’s about the Four Season Spring on the list you gave us. Only Liuji dicine Hall has that ingredient, but they are unwilling to sell it.”
Bai Chuwei frowned and asked him again. “There’s soone who rejects business?”
Just as she said that, a sneering female voice sounded from outside. “Bai Chuwei, we won’t sell that dicinal ingredient to you!”
Deng Manli walked into the shop with her bag and looked at Bai Chuwei in triumph.
