The Young Matriarch

Chapter 194: Chapter 194: You Aren’t Interested in Me, Are You?

Bai Chuwei sighed deeply and said with earnest, “Hanhan, you’ve changed. You’ve become stingy.”

Duan Feihan’s temple twitched slightly as he said in a heavy tone, “You don’t want the Snow Lotus anymore?”

Bai Chuwei suddenly realized, almost forgetting about the Spiritual Medicine Snow Lotus.

Bai Ze figured out what was going on, hearing how Fourth Master Duan had just spoken. “Take her back home,” not “take them back home”!

It seemed that Fourth Master Duan had no intention of giving him a ride back home as well?

Having witnessed Bai Chuwei’s tactics, Bai Ze wasn’t worried about her getting into trouble and after thinking for a moment, he said, “Thank you for the trouble, Fourth Master Duan.”

After the two parted ways, Bai Chuwei watched as Duan Feihan walked ahead, the streetlight stretching his shadow long, his straight back like a pine appearing somewhat lonely.

Bai Chuwei caught up with his pace, tugging at the hem of his clothes, and said with a laugh, “Hanhan, I find you quite stingy. Isn’t it just that you made Jade Talismans for Qi Mo and Bai Ze?”

Walking backward in front of him with her hands behind her back, Bai Chuwei said with a sparkle, “But it’s alright, I’ll give you the chance to throw small tantrums in front of me.”

Having lived for over five thousand years, everyone else was a child to her, and she could understand a child’s little tantrums.

Duan Feihan remained silent, suddenly feeling that Bai Chuwei might have watched too many novels and TV dramas. Her words sounded too much like a domineering CEO.

Duan Feihan looked at her as the young girl took the box with the Snow Lotus, her naturally upturned eyes suddenly seemed to be adorned with a myriad of stars.

He might have really come to the Hongmeng Auction House for nothing tonight, even the box of Spiritual Medicine was eventually paid for by Bai Chuwei, although she exchanged it with a Spirit Talisman.

Duan Feihan said indifferently, “In this world, it seems that only Spiritual Medicine can capture your attention?”

Holding the medicine box with one hand and resting the other on his shoulder, Bai Chuwei traced circles on the smooth material of his suit jacket with her fingertips and said meaningfully, “You’re wrong. Look, you also catch my attention quite well, don’t you?”

For her, Spiritual Medicine came first, Duan Feihan second!

Both could provide her with a continuous stream of Spiritual Energy. It’s just that she could easily seize the former, while the latter still didn’t want to be her follower.

She had just shown off her skills in array formation and location tracking, so why hadn’t Duan Feihan expressed any desire to swear allegiance to the ‘boss’?

If Duan Feihan ever decided to be her follower, she wouldn’t mind placing him first on the “Ancestors’ Interest List.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Bai Chuwei could almost feel his shoulders tighten slightly.

Duan Feihan asked, “Then why don’t I have one?”

Bai Chuwei was puzzled, “???”

Why was he bringing that up again? It was just a Jade Talisman, not something particularly valuable. She had plenty of treasures in her space; she could easily give him one if he wanted it.

Bai Chuwei kept telling herself that even if Duan Feihan was mature, he was still only in his twenties, while she, an ancestor over five thousand years old, had to indulge the child.

Bai Chuwei suggested both openly and covertly, “It’s because your relationship with me is still lacking a bit, like if you were to become my follower…”

Before she could finish, Duan Feihan interrupted indifferently, “I’m not interested.”

Bai Chuwei almost laughed, “Do you believe that Li Sheng, the boss of Hongmeng Auction House, is now plotting how to get closer to me? You’re the only one who…”

Bai Chuwei’s eyes collided with his deep, ocean-like dark pupils, and suddenly, her voice stopped abruptly.

After nearly a minute of silence, she suddenly stepped forward, grasped Duan Feihan’s tie, and looked at him suspiciously, “You couldn’t possibly have a thing for me, could you?”
