Chapter 125: Who Are You?

Bai Chuwei stood smiling behind Duan Feihan, her fingers continuing to trace words onto his back.

Bai Chuwei: "I want to crush that woman along with it."

The man remained silent. Bai Chuwei, looking slightly skeptical, wrote on his back, "Are you unable to decipher what I'm writing?"

Duan Feihan turned his head to look at her, a flicker of helplessness appearing in his deep, dark eyes. "I will help you in a moment."

Duan Xingye hurried over, looking bewildered. "What's wrong?"

Tong Yunrou was nearly driven to madness. She suddenly regretted her actions! Why on earth had she brought Duan Xiuqi here? Especially when President Qi had invited them to dinner today... Seeing the look in Duan Xiuqi's eyes, Tong Yunrou felt a gut-wrenching regret.

What on earth was happening? Who in Haicheng didn't know that the third master of the Duan family had been waiting for the woman who ran away twenty years ago?

Qi Yue, who loved gossip, had naturally learned about the film emperor’s past with her best friends. She said with confusion, "You must have mistaken her for someone else. My goddess is a high school senior this year, while the person you're talking about should be thirty-eight years old by now."

It was impossible for a thirty-eight-year-old to be attending high school! That was simply absurd.

A student nearby nodded in confirmation, "Exactly. She is a new senior who just transferred to our Henghua No. 1 High School."

Tong Yunrou immediately took over, her voice rising, "Right, she cannot be Bai Chu! Duan Xiuqi, you must be mistaken."

Duan Xiuqi stared straight at Bai Chuwei, saying nothing.

The quieter he remained, the more uneasy Tong Yunrou became. The young girl before them was certainly not Bai Chu, but she looked so incredibly similar to her—this meant she must be connected to Bai Chu! If Xiuqi found a way to reach Bai Chu through this girl, what would happen? Her wedding had already been announced to the entire world; would it really be called off?

Duan Xiuqi's eyes were bloodshot, his throat parched. Finally, his voice trembling, he spoke: "Who... are you?"

Bai Chuwei stood with her hands behind her back, gazing at him with a smile. "Me? I’m your ancestor."

The students present were thrilled. This answer was truly worthy of their chuunibyou goddess! She was actually teasing a famous film emperor!

Duan Xiuqi clenched his hands into fists and asked uncertainly, "Your name?"

Bai Chuwei curved her red lips. "My name is..."

Before she could finish, a series of urgent footsteps echoed at the entrance of the banquet hall. Several agile special police officers rushed in and presented their identification to Duan Feihan and Bai Chuwei.

After comparing a photograph, the lead officer said to Bai Chuwei, "Ms. Bai, it is you. Please come with us."

Bai Chuwei: "…?"

Even for the ancestor, this came as a surprise. What was going on? Had that creature Xueqiu been caught for tampering with the interrogation video of Xu Li at the police station?

The officer repeated himself, his tone somewhat stern: "We are looking for you, no mistake. Please."

Bai Chuwei thought for a moment and seemed to understand something, so she smiled. "Very well, I will go with you."

Bai Chuwei turned and left with the officers.

The moment she stepped into the police car at the entrance, a strong, steady hand reached in. The man sat down beside her and whispered, "I will accompany you."

The officer in the front frowned as he looked at Duan Feihan: "And you are...?"

Bai Chuwei and Duan Feihan answered simultaneously—

Bai Chuwei: "My little lackey."

Duan Feihan: "Her family member."

Beyond the sound of the police siren, the interior of the car was filled with silence.

The sudden removal of Bai Chuwei left the guests in a frenzy of gossip and speculation. Duan Xiuqi snatched the car keys from his agent's hand and chased out into the night.

Tong Yunrou screamed after him, "Xiuqi!"

Only Bai Yinyin felt her heart pounding like a drum, her face flushed with excitement as she muttered to herself, "Has Bai Chuwei been arrested for committing a crime?"
