Chapter 230: Chapter 230 Quite Thrilling
Even though Bai Chuwei had been studying medicine for over five thousand years, this was her first time making Spicy Soup, so she had to follow the recorded recipe.
Bai Chuwei poured the Spicy Soup into a glass bottle. The soup turned milky white, and from a distance, it resembled a bottle of milk.
Bai Chuwei touched her chin and mumbled to herself, “I heard that once the Spicy Soup is successfully made, it only has a shelf life of three days?”
Today was the anniversary of that guy’s five thousand four hundred and twentieth year of passing. She used to prepare a large jar of Peach Blossom Elixir for him every time, but since the man had been dead for more than five thousand years, hadn’t all that wine ended up in her stomach?
The wine was so potent that even Bai Chuwei often got drunk on it.
If she got drunk and woke up days later, wouldn’t the hard-earned Spicy Soup lose its medicinal effectiveness?
After thinking for a while, Bai Chuwei smiled and said, “Before I pay my respects, I’ll go deliver a wedding gift to them first.”
Bai Chuwei went to the wardrobe and searched for a plain white long dress, with no decorations except for a black pattern embroidered along the hem.
Elegant, dignified, and filled with solemnity.
As Bai Chuwei draped the dress over herself and looked into the full-length mirror, her slender hands slipped through the sleeves and silently fastened the clasps.
Xue Qiu, watching Bai Chuwei dress up in such a manner, couldn’t utter the usual flirtatious remarks for a moment. Its gemstone-blue eyes looked at the reflection in the mirror, and after a long thought, it finally squeaked, “Ancestor, Xue Qiu will always be with you.”
Bai Chuwei let out a light chuckle and packed the small bottle containing Spicy Soup into a delicate wooden box, saying with disdain, “You? You better transform sooner rather than later; you’re always acting like a mouse.”
Once everything was prepared, Bai Chuwei was ready to set off.
Before leaving, the blooming lovely nanny, Auntie Chen, looked at Bai Chuwei with concern and asked, “Miss Weiwei, why are you dressed so simply and solemnly today?”
Seeing that Bai Chuwei remained silent, Auntie Chen continued as if caring, “Miss Weiwei, you should take an umbrella when you go out. It looks like it’s going to rain today.”
Bai Chuwei looked up at the dark clouds in the sky and spoke in a cold tone, “Today will certainly be a sunny day.”
With that, Bai Chuwei walked out of the Bai Family’s mansion.
Once Bai Chuwei left, the Bai Family home was left with very few people.
Auntie Chen looked at Bai Hongguang beside her, her heart beating faster, and she pouted, “Sir, look at that foster daughter of yours, I was just showing concern for her…”
Bai Hongguang walked over to wrap his arms around Auntie Chen’s waist, saying nonchalantly, “Why bother with a wild girl? Take care of me instead.”
Tsk—no kidding!
In the past, he would be fooling around outside and act meek as a grandson at home in front of Liu Man, but after the last time he tried, Bai Hongguang found it thrilling!
Incredibly thrilling!
It’s interesting at home; he even got addicted to it.
Even if the third elder of the Duan Family’s grand wedding shook the entire haute society of Haicheng, Bai Hongguang was unmoved. He only wanted to be alone at home with his Little Miaomiao…
Bai Chuwei walked out of the Bai Family’s home to find the sky covered with heavy clouds, low thunder rumbling, and passersby all carrying umbrellas. Cao Jinhai made a phone call to her.
“Miss Bai, the twenty-eight dishes you ordered are mostly prepared. When should I deliver them to you?” Cao Jinhai, not knowing exactly who Bai Chuwei was, always felt she was mysterious and couldn’t help but address her respectfully.
Bai Chuwei smiled slightly and said, “I’ll come to pick them up in a little while.”
Cao Jinhai expressed his concern, “Then please be careful on your way and remember to bring an umbrella; there’s going to be a downpour today.”
Bai Chuwei responded, “No, it’s going to clear up soon.”
