Please, Mr. Bai

Bai Han thought he had heard wrong and repeated her question.

Gu Shishi was a little nervous, for her suggestion was bold.

However, Bai Han's extraordinary skills attracted her.

What had happened to her grandfather was an alarm for her, for the Gu family relied on him now. Once something happened to her grandfather, those uncles who weren't core family members would all have their eyes on the properties.

Moreover, feeling helpless and hopeless when the loved one was in critical condition was terrible.

If she also had Bai Han's ability, even if it was only one-tenth or even one-hundredth, it was still better than not being able to do anything.

"I want to be your disciple," Gu Shishi bit her red lips and repeated.

She was embarrassed that she didn't dare to mention the idea of cultivation partners again.

"Mr. Bai, please, I want to be your disciple. Ever since I met you, I've always admired you." Gu Shishi placed her bag in front of her and bowed.

Bai Han raised his eyebrows without saying a word, but he was pleased.

No intermediate mage would refuse such a beautiful woman begging to be a disciple.

As expected, he had made the right choice.

If the magic crystals could solve the problem, it would be better to be a mage on earth and train until he became a mage god than to live in the magical world.

Looking at Gu Shishi, who was still bent over and lowered her head, Bai Han felt on top of the world.

However...

Although Bai Han wanted to accept her proposal, he still rejected her, "No, I haven't taken in any disciples yet." 

Gu Shishi was even more eager to be his disciple when she heard that.

Mr. Bai had never had a disciple before, which meant she could be his first one or might be the only one!

"Mr. Bai, please give me a chance." Gu Shishi blinked at Bai Han.

Her almond-shaped eyes were bright and clear, which made her delicate face look even more lively and lovely.

Bai Han held onto the golden railing of the corridor with a cold expression. "Please leave me alone."

Bai Han's attitude was too firm. Gu Shishi, who had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, understood the world's ways. Her brain told her it was best to accept his decision and leave now.

However, the purple crystals had already been delivered, and the deal between the Gu clan and Bai Han had already been completed.

If she were to leave now, she might be unable to contact Bai Han again.

Gu Shishi bit her lip, her face blushing. She raised her head, revealing her fair and slender neck, which was attractive.

"Mr. Bai, I admire you. If you don't want to take me as your disciple, I wonder if I can have the honor of being your partner?"

As a celebrity, Gu Shishi knew what expression could make people's hearts beat.

Her almond-shaped eyes were covered with a thin layer of moisture, and her cheeks were slightly flushed. She lifted her chin, and her long, beautiful white neck and collarbones were visible.

The black belt tightened around her waist, and the rose-red dress reached her knees, revealing her white, round knees and slender calves.

Bai Han's hand that was holding onto the railing paused. He was so shocked by Gu Shishi's words that he almost lost his balance.

Partner?

Did she mean to wake up with him every day?

Holy crap!

Bai Han's adam's apple bobbed as he looked down at Gu Shishi, who was too beautiful to be true.

"Compared to a partner, I need purple crystals more," Bai Han said slowly.

As long as he was strong enough, with his strength and appearance, he could have any beauty he wanted.

Bai Han disagreed with Shishi's request because he wanted to get more purple crystals. Moreover, he wants to set the bar for himself to take in a disciple.

Otherwise, anyone could come to him and ask to be his disciple. He did not have this much time to deal with these people.

"You want to be my disciple? Sure. The tuition is thirty thousand purple crystals." 

Gu Shishi's eyes widened.

Thirty thousand purple crystals?

Although the Gu family had a purple crystal mine, it belonged to the company and not to them. The Gu family could not take purple crystals directly from there.

Moreover, the Gu family's purple crystal mine was insignificant, so losing thirty thousand purple crystals would be difficult!

Gu Shishi's red lips trembled slightly, but she did not bargain with Bai Han.

It was a rare opportunity to get in touch with Mr. Bai, and no anyone could have the chance to talk to him.

"Okay. Mr. Bai, please give me time to gather the purple crystals." 

Bai Han nodded calmly. "Sure. Once you've collected enough money for the tuition, you can come over directly. 

"Sorry for disturbing you, Mr. Bai." Gu Shishi slightly and left the villa.

When Gu Shishi walked out the door, Bai Han could not help but smile.

"I'm rich; I'm rich! I am seriously loaded now!" he thought.

He had magic talismans, pills, scrolls, and books. Now, the most crucial magic crystal was not lacking.

When Gu Shishi handed over the thirty thousand magic crystals as tuition, he would soon be a grand mage!

Thinking of the fire dragon formed from the aftermath of the battle between the two great mages, which had destroyed the entire magic academy, Bai Han turned emotional.

Once he became a grand mage, he would not have to be afraid of the fire dragon even if he returned to the magic land.

Gu Shishi, on the other hand, called Gu Xingrong immediately after she returned to her place.

"Dad, I want to be Mr. Bai's disciple." 

A low voice came from the phone. "Don't make any impulsive move and make Mr. Bai upset. Our family can't afford that." 

"Dad, Mr. Bai has already agreed but has a condition." 

The other end of the phone fell silent.

Gu Shishi took a deep breath and said in one go," Mr. Bai said that it would cost thirty thousand purple crystals as the tuition." 

Before Gu Xingrong could say anything, Gu Shishi continued, "dad, if I can cultivate, it will be a great help to our family to have a cultivator. Till then, who would dare to treat us like a doormat?"

How could a mortal be compared to a deity who knew magic?

"Even the top families would respect us, and maybe we will have a chance to be part of them." 

A deep sigh came from the phone.

Gu Shishi knew that her dad was somewhat convinced.

"Do you know how much thirty thousand purple crystals is?" Three billion. Losing this money will be an excellent fit for our family," Gu Xingrong asked sincerely.

"Dad, but it will be very beneficial as well. If we miss this opportunity, the Gu family may not have another chance to climb up to the highest social status." 

Gu Shishi added, "Besides, we can use Mr. Bai's reputation. Dad, once the news about Mr. Bai spreads, many families will want to rub his shoulders. Till then, there will be nothing we can't do."

After a while, Gu Xingrong's slightly hoarse voice was heard. "Okay." 

Gu Shishi smiled after she hung up the phone.

Tu Shishi's phone suddenly rang the next second, and she looked down.

It was Chuxi.

Gu Shishi picked up the phone. "Chuxi?"

"Shishi, I want to ask you for a favor."

Song Chuxi was Gu Shishi's best friend, and they had known each other for many years.

"Chuxi, is that even a question? Just tell me." Gu Shishi smiled gently.

"I know the secret of your family."

The smile on Gu Shishi's face disappeared.

"Can you introduce me to Mr. Bai? I also want to be healed."
