66 Immobilising talisman
Song Yan couldn't be blamed for her reaction, Fu Yu Sheng has never taken any interest in her life much less what her hobbies were-- to think that he was taking so much interest in her life, no wait. Her head snapped in his direction as her eyes narrowed slowly, he wasn't taking interest in her life, no he was asking this question because of Wang Yufan, that blabbermouth.
" Why? What's the matter?" she asked as she placed her bowl back on the table with a loud thwack. Was he going to say that she was being stupid? Or something along the line? " So, what if I did?"
Noticing that Song Yan was getting angry, Fu Yu Sheng was smart enough to pause for a second and do a mental check of what he was going to say, only then did he part his lips and said what was on his mind. "It's nothing but I believe you need to have a psychiatrist check your condition just in case your illness starts getting worse. there is nothing to be ashamed of after all this can happen to anyone, I will be free tomorrow why don't you get ready and the two of us can go and meet a psychiatrist about your problem, what do you say?"
Song Yan was so angry that she slammed the chopsticks on the table and glared at Fu Yu Sheng, who didn't even flinch at her outburst, he looked at her with that same unnerving expression that wouldn't change no matter what situation he was in--- he was still the same.
So annoyingly detestable, just why in the world did she fall in love with him?
Did her eyes go on a strike or something back then? Why did she have to fall for a guy like him?
" Are you trying to say that I'm mad?" asked Song Yan, her face flushed as she glared at Fu Yu Sheng. Her chest heaving up and down from anger - Good, very good. This time it wasn't just being stupid or acting on impulse, he just went ahead and called her mad outright.
Never in five hundred years was she embarrassed like this! Back then a hundred and ten ghosts called 'mommy' and bowed to her, she --- the great Spirit master who alone reached the boundary between being human and ghosts was now being called a ' mental patient'.
This was really good!
Fu Yu Sheng pursed his lips, thinking of a way to approach the matter in a way that wasn't too insensitive and would hurt her. He took a slow, aesthetic bite of his porridge with his long, slender hands that should only be used to play the piano or something. " It's understandable you have been alone for a very long time---"
" Oh, so you knew that I was alone?" asked Song Yan with a sarcastic chuckle that was devoid of any humour. " It's surprising, I thought you forgot that you have a wife. When was the last time you came to see me?" she tapped her cheek with her forefinger and then tipped her chin with a sly smile. " Yea, the last time you came to see me was when Chen Chen turned one."
Fu Yu Sheng sighed as he put down his chopstick and picked the folder napkin from the table, and wiped his lips only then did he speak, " You knew this back when you married me, I told you that I have my own responsibilities--- my brother has gone ahead and became a mad scientist and Yu Shen has no ambitions either. If I don't take the responsibility to lead the Fu cooperations, who will?"
Song Yan crossed her arms, her lips pressed in a thin line. It wasn't that she blamed Fu Yu Sheng but she couldn't control her temper, how can he call her 'mad' after he never really paid attention to her, so what if she was doing something that others tended to think as ' superstitious'?
" And I have never blamed you, I didn't blame you back when you left me alone after our wedding night, I didn't blame you when you were too busy to take care of me when I was pregnant, and nor did I blame you when Chen Chen asked why his daddy couldn't participate in the parent teaching meetings, I have never blamed you not even once," said Song Yan with a calm voice through there was a storm raging in her heart. Yes, she never blamed him but when she thought about everything that she has gone through --- Song Yan couldn't help but be upset.
She took a deep breath and started right in Fu Yu Sheng's eyes. " And because I never blamed you." she placed special emphasis on ' blamed you', before she continued, " that's why I can assure you that I haven't gone mad. You can rest assured, without a single worry."
Fu Yu Sheng pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed irritably, " No sane person will carry superstitious things such as talismans in the world of science and technology if you don't call this madness what will you call madness? Do I have to wait for you to start sticking talismans all over your body like those old witches in the village?"
Old witches? He was comparing her to those freaky women who loved acting like they were worth something when they were nothing but frauds who didn't even know how to draw even the intermediate talismans.
Now she was mad, she slapped her hands over the table so hard that her palms smacked the wooden tabletop with a loud noise that practically shook the entire table and the bowls and plates on it.
" Fu Yu Sheng, I didn't want to do this to you but you forced my hand," said Song Yan with a ferocious expression, a spiritual master like her was actually being compared to a mere fraud witch -- this insult she will never forget, nor will she let Fu Yu Sheng forget it.
" What are you --" began Fu Yu Sheng but then Song Yan strode towards him and then took out an immobilising talisman from her space ring and then stuck it to Fu Yu Sheng's body.
Fu Yu Sheng who was still speaking stiffened, he didn't know what just happened but all of a sudden his entire body stopped moving and he couldn't even move a single finger much less open his mouth and say anything.
His irises moved as he flicked them at Song Yan who was standing next to him with a smug expression on her face, a nasty grin playing on her lips. " Now go and call the witch for you to unwind this spell on you."
Fu Yu Sheng's eyes widened even more before they started moving wildly as he glared at her mutely. He didn't want to believe it but Song Yan seemed to know something that he didn't, and what was even more hateful was that the talismans and magic tools that he considered to be useless and nothing but a stupid superstition spreader --- Were actually working!
Now how was he supposed to explain it as per the theory of materialism?
Song Yan cast him another look that was filled with smugness. Then she turned around and picked up her purse to leave but just as she reached the door of the VIP room, she paused and then turned her head towards Fu Yu Sheng whose entire body was shining with Yang energy.
It would be a great shame if she were to leave just like this, he made her mad and caused her blood to boil, which would seriously endanger her health conditions.
So shouldn't she at least take some sort of compensation right?
Then she turned on her heel and walked toward Fu Yu Shen whose eyes lit up. He thought that Song Yan came to help him and put him right but instead, she just came to a stop in front of him and ----
HUGGED HIM!
That's right, she hugged him like she didn't just put some sort of black magic on his body. He silently glared at him but then again Song Yan wasn't paying any attention to him, she just turned back around and left.
This woman!
Fu Yu Sheng gritted his teeth, once he get out of this spell or whatever it was, he was going to take a real ' good care' of this wife of his.
But will he be able to get out of this thing?
Of course, he will be able to get out of this. Though Song Yan was angry, Fu Yu Sheng was her 'only' husband, she wouldn't treat him badly. The talisman will be ineffective in half an hour of course if he came to find trouble with her, she wouldn't mind giving him another lesson which will be more effective compared to this one.
Once she got out of the restaurant, Assistant Xu stopped her at once with a polite expression on his face. He peered over her shoulder and asked, " where is CEO Fu, second madam?"
