361 Lunch at Wu Family (part2)
After speaking he turned to look at Song Yan silently telling her not to think about it too much, he was worried that she might be upset after listening to what Mother Wu said about him coming to the Wu house every now and then, what if his wife misunderstood and was now punishing him for that?
Seeing her husband's expression, Song Yan knew that he has misunderstood her, she shook her head and lifted her foot off Fu Yu Sheng's toes, the reason she was upset wasn't because of what Mother Wu said, instead she was angry with him because he has never once told her about being shot by a gun.
However, when she saw that Fu Yu Sheng was looking at her with concern, she shook her head telling him that she wasn't angry.
On the other hand, Mother Wu who noticed their small interactions had a very unsightly expression on her face, she was very unhappy seeing Fu Yu Sheng refuse her daughter's good intentions, even though Fu Yu Sheng's refusal came with a good explanation, to Mother Wu every single word of his was nothing but a lie. Her daughter was sick and despite feeling under the weather, she toiled herself to make those crayfish for Fu Yu Sheng, he could have at least taken a bite for her daughter's sake!
But no he refused her straightforwardly and now he was even making sure that his wife was all right or not as if that woman deserved it!
Mother Wu's face was very ugly and stiff but she still managed to smile somehow as she nudged her eldest son. Since she could not handle Fu Yu Sheng, she might as well leave it to her eldest son, at least Wu Qinfan was closer to Fu Yu Sheng surely, the latter would listen to him.
Wu Qinfan didn't want to even waste a single breath on Fu Yu Sheng, to him…his sister was the only one who was noble enough to refuse others not the other way round, seeing that Fu Yu Sheng actually went on and refused to take even a bite of his sister's goodwill, Wu Qinfan wished he could chase him out of the house.
However, when his mother nudged him, Wu Qinfan had no other option but to hook up his lips in a stiff smile and look at Fu Yu Sheng, who asked his sister to be smitten with this man. " Brother Sheng, it's all right if you can't handle spicy food as well as you could when you were young but at least take a small bite of it. You know how Genji is, she has been sickly ever since she was a child and yet she woke up early because she wanted to make something for you ..taking a bite to keep her heart would suffice right? I think that your wife would agree with me on this as well."
He turned his head and deliberately looked at Song Yan, who plastered a dumb and plastic wife expression on her face and pretended not to understand what Wu Qinfan was trying to do, she hasn't even said a word about the mother and son pair trying to match make her husband with Wu Genji and now they wanted her to help them as well? Why don't they ascend to the heavens?
If Wu Genji was really just a sickly woman who was going to die any moment then maybe she would have taken pity on her and asked Fu Yu Sheng to eat what she has cooked for him but Song Yan knew that something was very wrong with Wu Genji. Even today she could smell the faint smell of fresh blood from her body and what was even more astonishing was that despite having their grandson and nephew kidnapped from them Wu Qinfan and Mother Wu only cared about Wu Genji!
No matter how concerned they were about Wu Genji's health, how would their lack of concern toward their nephew be explained? Unlike them, the second son of the Wu family and his wife looked like they were being forced to attend this lunch and from their expressions, it was clear as the day that both of them were very dissatisfied and disappointed by Mother Wu and Wu Qinfan's attitude as well.
Even father Wu and Wu Jin looked uncomfortable as if they would rather do something else than sit in the house.
Song Yan took a furtive whiff of the scent that was surrounding Wu Genji and her eyes slightly quivered, the smell of blood was now stained with a fishy smell of rotten flesh, meaning that she hasn't just used the blood of the children to satiate the hunger of the demon she was raising but she has even used the flesh and bones of those pitiful children!
Wu Qinfan saw that Song Yan didn't say a word and his face turned even more ugly while his impression of Song Yan dipped so low that he no longer considered her as important as a bug that might get smashed under his feet. He clenched his fingers on his lap and then glared at her wishing he could take care of her once and for all.
He wanted to say something more but he was stopped by Wu Genji who placed her hand on the back of his hand and shook her head before she turned to look at Fu Yu Sheng and apologised sincerely, " Brother Sheng, forgive me… I should have asked Brother Jin before, if I have done that then at least I would not have put you in this predicament, if you cannot stomach spicy food then there is no need to force yourself for my sake."
Wu Qinfan wanted to stop his sister but he was interrupted by Wu Genji, " Brother Qinfan, mom… you don't need to force brother Yu Sheng at all. It was I who went ahead and cooked those spicy crayfish for him, he never once asked me to make them and I would rather not have him troubled either, in case he forces himself and his old injuries flare up, then how will I show my face to sister in law?"
After she finished speaking she turned around and shot an apologetic look to Song Yan before bowing her head. " I hope sister in law will not be upset because of this."
