" Think of it like this," Fu Yu Sheng took his wife's hand realising that she was feeling guilty for destroying something that her late mother worked so hard on. " The Song corporation that your mother built was something that resulted from the love and mutual trust that your parents had for each other, it was like a blooming peony which was given tender care and love by both father-in-law and mother-in-law."
" But now even though the peony flower still exists, it's covered with rotten petals, twigs and leaves. Chu Lian and Song Wang Lei had ruined it with their greed, I do not know much about mother in law as I never met her but I know that father in law a straightforward man, he was the one who came up with the idea of suppressing the new branch of the Song corporation and ruining the entire Song corporation in one go, if he was willing to cut off the rotten peony bush in one go, I believe your mother would have wanted to do the same, even if you cannot trust yourself. Trust your father."
Fu Yu Sheng's words lifted the boulder which was pressing on Song Yan's shoulders, last night when she received a message from Lu Biyu that everything had been arranged, she was a bit hesitant but luckily her father was peeping at her and Fu Yu Sheng which was why she was able to discuss everything with him.
She thought that he would feel just as reluctant to part with the Song corporation as she was but contrary to her expectations, her father's words were direct and firm. He told her that he wanted to end this farce once and for all such that they all could return to their old lives without further ado. It both troubled and gratified her but now that she had listened to Fu Yu Sheng's words, Song Yan could finally put the weight off her shoulders.
Though she could no longer remember a lot of things about her mother, she knew that her mother was a woman who loved cleanliness surely, she would not like to take care of a rotten company which was covered with greed and corruption, right?
" I don't know how to thank you," Song Yan began, everything happened so suddenly, she thought that Lu Biyu will take a long time before she would be able to suck all the money from the Song company who would have thought that the woman would be so skilled that she did it in just a month? Last night, she suddenly asked Fu Yu Sheng to make several arrangements but the latter still obliged and helped her without asking anything.
Fu Yu Sheng looked around before taking note of their surroundings, once he was certain that his father-in-law was busy, he picked up his wife and placed her in his lap causing Song Yan to yelp in surprise as he nuzzled his face in the crook of her neck.
" As long as you think that I have worked hard just reward me a little?"
Song Yan flushed in embarrassment before she could say anything, the door was pushed open and she hurriedly scrambled off the lap of Fu Yu Sheng causing the latter to almost slip off the bed as Fu Chen rushed inside.
" Mom!" Fu Chen did not suspect anything as he barged inside the room when he saw his mother sitting on the couch while his father browsed through his phone though he did feel a prickly sensation at the back of his neck coming from behind as he looked at his mother but when he turned to look at his father who was lying on the bed, he did not see anything amiss and turned to look at his mother again before announcing, " Great grandfather wants to meet you. He asked if you are done with the work then you can come and see him downstairs."
Song Yan had a hunch that her grandfather-in-law wanted to see her which was why she picked up Fu Chen in her arms and walked out of the room only to hear a sharp tsk of annoyance from behind and chuckled softly. This time it could not be blamed on her, it was just her husband who was born with a lot of yang energy but had rather bad luck when it came to sharing it.
Fu Yu Sheng moped in the room for a long time before he too followed after Song Yan, when the two arrived in the living room, Old Master Fu did not sense anything amiss between the two of them instead he waited until the two were sitting on the couch and then turned to look at Song Yan as he said, " Last night Researcher Cui asked for my help."
Old Master Fu did not dare to ask Song Yan to treat Cu Deming instead he simply retold what Researcher Cui said to him, it was just as Song Yan expected Researcher Cui had called Old Master Fu and sold the sob story of how much Cui Deming was at the moment, he further went on and said that since he was Fu Shu Chang's teacher and even though he might have wronged Fu Shu Chang a bit, there was no need for Song Yan to make Cui Deming pay it with his life.
Because a person's life was more important than anything else and one should not be too calculative when the matter was related to someone's life and death.
More importantly, Fu Shu Chang and the Cui family had to live in the military district for a long time, it would not be good if their relationship got strained.
Hearing Old Master Fu's words, Song Yan was amused that she laughed out loud, though Researcher Cui was the one who was speaking one could see that it was all Old Madam Cui's words which were laced with both threats and honey-sweet words.
She had expected that the Cui family was going to do something like this, she knew that the Li Ling woman was too arrogant to lower her head which was why they did not dare to say anything to her and went to soften the Old Master Fu thinking that he will be able to push her into helping their family.
Haha, did the Cui family think that she was someone who grew up eating soft persimmons?
