Inside the European style villa, the entire Bai Family were currently seated on the sofa.
The white-haired old man, Bai Guofu was clenching his cane tightly. His face was flushed red in anger and he reprimanded in a loud voice. “Are my words of no importance, now? I gave you the task to fetch someone. Why didn’t you go?”
Different members of the Bai Family had different reactions to his words.
The old man, who always remained aloof and away from the worldly affairs, had suddenly announced yesterday that he was going to bring in a girl from the countryside into the family. Moreover, she would be staying here for an indefinite period. This news was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, that stirred up great ripples.
A delicate young lady who was seated at the corner seat, pouted and tried to explain to the old man. “Grandfather, it’s raining so hard outside. Can’t we fetch her after the rain stops?”
Bai Yinyin was feeling a strong sense of crisis towards the girl who was yet to appear. She was the only girl in this generation of the Bai Family and thus, she had been doted upon by her grandfather since childhood. Naturally, she would not be fond of sharing that attention with someone else.
They had originally made plans to fetch that country bumpkin from Yunwu Mountain at one o’clock today. However, Bai Yinyin suddenly came up with an idea, along with her mother, to let the girl wait in the rain to teach her a lesson.
Bai Yinyin looked at the downpour happily through the window and gloated secretly. She was ready to bet that the girl must be thoroughly drenched from head to toe by now.
“Ding~ Ding~”
The doorbell rang all of a sudden and Bai Yinyin stood up to open the door.
A young lady dressed in a clean dress of unknown material with bamboo pattern embroidered on the corner of her sleeves, was standing at their doorstep. There were no traces of mud on her shoes. Moreover, she was shockingly gorgeous. She gave off a clean and spiritual image, and the aura she excluded made her seem like a godly being.
She introduced herself at the first opportunity. “I’m Bai Chuwei.”
Bai Yinyin retreated in shock and immediately took out her mobile phone to check the photo which she had received previously. Unconsciously, her voice became sharper as she said, “You’re Bai Chuwei?”
