Chapter 638: Chapter 638: Clearly, She Dotes on These Younger Relatives Chapter 638: Chapter 638: Clearly, She Dotes on These Younger Relatives The Duan Family's genes are indeed quite impressive, the men handsome and the women beautiful.
Xu Xingchen did resemble his Uncle Duan Feihan in some ways.
Unfortunately, although they were family, he had been ruthlessly driven out of the Duan Family.
Xu Xingchen changed the subject, “Did that woman Bai Chuwei make you angry again?”
Tong Qingyan's eyes became even more misty, and her heart grew increasingly uncomfortable.
Xu Xingchen tried to provide comfort, “Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the poor because they are young. One day, we'll tread all those who looked down on us underfoot!”
Tong Qingyan, thinking of Bai Chuwei's spirited presence at the podium, suddenly fell silent. Perhaps there would always be a chasm between her and Bai Chuwei in thirty years?
However, Tong Qingyan couldn't help feeling a kind of camaraderie with Xu Xingchen.
They had such similar experiences, Xu Xingchen was let down by the entire Duan Family, whilst she faced bankruptcy in the Tang Family and was bullied by Bai Chuwei.
Their circumstances turned out to be so alike!
With this thought, Tong Qingyan's opinion of Xu Xingchen improved even more, and she asked with a smile, “What brings you to our Imperial University?”
Xu Xingchen responded somewhat embarrassedly, “I came to the library at Imperial University to read. Imperial University's library has a lot of ancient books related to the archaeology field, which A University's library doesn't have.”
In the end, it came down to the fact that the university he attended was not the top institution.
Tong Qingyan couldn't help but say, “We're both archaeology students, and you're so dedicated to our field. I haven't seen Bai Chuwei make much of an effort in archaeology,” always showing off her mathematics and computer skills!
Bai Chuwei didn't seem to have any exceptional talent in archaeology, nor had she seen her put in any effort.
After thinking it over, Tong Qingyan added, “You need a student ID to enter our school's library, I'll take you in.”
Xu Xingchen curved his lips into a smile and replied, “Okay.”

News of Bai Chuwei single-handedly teaching nearly a hundred math professors spread quickly, with the most attention-grabbing fact being — Tong Qingyan, the belle of the finance department, was utterly defeated and even brought to tears.
Tong Qingyan was forced by Bai Chuwei to call her “Professor Bai”!
When this spread to the school forum, it ignited a heated debate.
However, many students felt it was only right; after all, Bai Chuwei was the Immortal Teacher, so what's wrong with calling her Professor Bai?
Yet there was also a group feeling injustice for Tong Qingyan, believing Bai Chuwei went too far, that she was bullying Tong Qingyan on purpose!
The argument on the forum persisted for two whole days, until the broadcast of the latest episode of “Super Brain Scholar” with the Red Team vs. Blue Team PK aired, and the students who had been criticizing Bai Chuwei for going too far quietly deleted their posts.
Not only did Tong Qingyan lead the Red Team to defeat, but she also made snide remarks suggesting that the Immortal Teacher had sabotaged their Red Team, pinning her own mistakes on Bai Chuwei.
No one could accept that!
If it were up to them, they might have resorted to physical altercation already, for they had never seen such insolence!
It must be said, the captain of the Red Team really had good self-control.
However, Tong Qingyan was definitely in trouble now, with Bai Chuwei practically being the darling of professors from all departments across the university, receiving a call to attention wherever she went…
Bai Chuwei scoffed at this notion, the darling of the old professors? She was the ancestor of all of them!
It was she who doted on these youngsters.
Xue Qiu sat in front of the palm-sized computer, his paws tapping away noisily: 'Ancestor, many technology companies in China hope to buy the rights to the Chinese System, they say the price is negotiable.'
Bai Chuwei was not surprised at all; once China could free itself from the shackles of the English System, they could develop much faster.
Making money was just that easy.
Bai Chuwei flicked her eyelids, “You handle the sale.”
Xue Qiu nodded, turned his chubby body, and his sapphire eyes stared at the palm-sized computer before he suddenly gasped in shock: 'Ancestor, a foreign company called Lightning Technology…'
Bai Chuwei frowned and interrupted, “Don't sell to foreign companies.”
Having been an ancestor in China for over five thousand years, Bai Chuwei had a quirk; she liked to keep the good stuff for her descendants.
Foreigners? They were not within her sphere of consideration, nor were they the descendants she was willing to protect.
Xue Qiu squeaked in shock, 'But Ancestor, they're not planning to buy the rights, they're publicly slandering you!'
