Chapter 528: Chapter 528: Letting You Suffer a Societal Beating Chapter 528: Chapter 528: Letting You Suffer a Societal Beating The cool touch of her fingers against his delicate skin was like a sudden awakening for Bai Chuwei, who immediately withdrew her hand.
With an unreadable expression, Duan Feihan watched her. “Who did you think I was?”
Living for so long tends to thicken one's skin, and Bai Chuwei was equally collected. “No, no, I just thought Hanhan looked very handsome today,” she said.
Duan Feihan let out a soft, cold chuckle. Who else could it be but her, with that bright moonlight and cinnabar mole?
Bai Chuwei didn't know how she had mistaken someone else for him just now. She coughed and emphasized, “I mean it, Hanhan looks very handsome today.”
Since ancient times, so many emperors have yearned for immortality, for their realms to last forever. The most obvious first benefit of immortal cultivation is–the transformation of one's appearance and aura.
Bai Chuwei always felt that today's Duan Feihan was even more attractive than before, with a mature man's presence perfectly balanced by an ethereal aura.
Bai Chuwei inwardly clicked her tongue in amazement. With Duan Feihan's looks in the original story, how come there wasn't a single official match for him?
“Very handsome?” Duan Feihan murmured softly, his eyebrows raised inquisitively. “Handsome enough for you to be willing to hide me away in a 'Golden House'?”
Bai Chuwei almost burst out laughing. What? A 'Golden House'?
Duan Feihan lifted his hand and passed a set of keys to her. “The keys to my property in Imperial Capital.”
It seemed that he really was going to spend a lot of time in Imperial Capital in the future.
Suddenly feeling the weight of the keys in her hand, Bai Chuwei suppressed a smile and handed him a small booklet, “For you.”
Duan Feihan's sharp eyebrows slightly lifted as he observed the slight twitching of Bai Chuwei's facial muscles. He took the booklet and gently flipped it open–it was the “Longevity Art”, written in Spiritual White Script by Bai Chuwei.
Struggling to keep a straight face, Bai Chuwei coughed and said, “Here, ponder over it at your leisure.”
Written in classical language, the nearly hundred-word secret had evaded comprehension by cultivators spanning over five thousand years.
However clever Duan Feihan might be, it's unlikely he could learn it.
The “Longevity Art” was written by her demised sworn brother. It was also the first secret of immortal cultivation she came across after the Dog System tricked her five thousand years back.
But well, even with her excellent aptitude for cultivation and her brother personally explaining it, phrase by phrase, she was able to grasp its mysteries.
As Duan Feihan looked down at the carefree calligraphy and the obscure phrases that oddly felt familiar, he nodded, “It shouldn't be too hard. I'll study it closely.”
Not too hard?
Bai Chuwei ground her teeth. Just wait until you start delving into it, and let society knock some sense into you!
With hands behind her back, Bai Chuwei looked at him with a beaming smile. “So… are you going to take me to school this time when it starts?”
“Yes, I'll take you, and I might as well drop off Duan Xingye too,” he replied.
Currently exercising in his room, Duan Xingye suddenly sneezed, “What's going on?”

As the night deepened and households gradually succumbed to sleep, the black Labrador at home lay in its doghouse, looking at the family with a strange gaze.
Bai Hongguang, Liu Man, and Bai Yinyin were packing their things overnight, ready to depart from Haicheng as soon as possible the following day.
The house was brightly lit as the family packed and sorted their belongings, exhausted to the bone.
Weary and aching all over, Bai Hongguang burst into tears as he cursed, “Bai Chuwei, you… true Little Fairy.”
“You damn… you're really so understanding!”
“Our kind, beautiful, generous, adorable ancestor.”
Bai Yinyin was almost numb; now, whenever she thought of Bai Chuwei, her brain automatically switched to various compliments, even though she had gained two pounds doing so.
“Woof woof–”
“Oh, Wenwen… Oh no, Yinyin, are you hungry? I think I forgot to feed you dog food tonight.”
