778 Refusal



But before Song Yan could say anything, Fu Yu Sheng narrowed his eyes and spoke coldly while a murderous aura oozed out of his skin, he did not raise his voice nor did he call the Cui family any names instead he very calmly said, " Grandpa, since the Cui family wants Yan Yan to help their nephew naturally they will have to show some more sincerity right? What is with this, half-coaxing and half-threatening pleading? It's more like they want us to give them alms when they are on the verge of starving but still dare to demand more. What's more, they haven't even apologised to Yan Yan!" 

Grandfather Fu was also rather upset with the way Researcher Cui tried to approach him, he knew that even though that man was apologising to him, he was actually using his apologetic words to threaten him with Fu Shu Chang's future. This was something Old Master Fu expected after all, the Cui family had given a lot of research to the military base and they had their own name in the world of research and science, asking them to apologise was akin to asking them to peel a layer of their skin but on top of that Song Yan had even placed the condition that they need to return Fu Shu Chang's works to him taking the credit away from Cui Deming. 

Of course, the Cui family was hesitant to approach Song Yan! They did not want their family to become a joke in front of others. 

But at the same time, he did not wish to trouble Fu Shu Chang by going against his teacher. 

Looking at Old Master Fu's expression, Song Yan knew that he was feeling rather conflicted but Song Yan wasn't—— she was not a fool, she knew that the Cui family approached her grandfather-in-law believing that as long as they threaten her elder brother in law's future, Old Master Fu would succumb to speak up for them in front of her and if possible, he might even force her to treat Cui Deming since his eldest grandson's future was involved in this matter! 

More importantly, she was worried that if she was to let go of the Cui family so easily they will only become more harsher towards Fu Shu Chang, thinking that it was easy to bully them as long as they threaten Fu Shu Chang, at that time rather than being grateful for her help while treating Cui Deming, they might take her for granted. Who knows what kind of stupid requests they will come up with in the future?

It was better to nip the bud before it bloomed. She was no idiot and there was no way she was just going to let the Cui family off without making them suffer nicely, which was why she looked at her grandfather-in-law with a soft smile and said, " Grandpa, the next time anyone from the Cui family come looking for me, just tell them that they better look for me instead of troubling you." 

Old Master Fu wanted to say something but at that moment Fu Yu Sheng spoke up in a low voice, " Grandpa don't think that if you were to help their family right now, they will be grateful towards our family. The Cui family is no longer the same with his nephew and niece filling his ears, Researcher Cui had long changed."

" His heart which was not tipped to one side is already moving towards his family, if you give in to them now, they will only grow bolder in the future. Look at this they need Yan Yan's help but they still dare to be arrogant in front of you, think about it. Once Yan Yan helps them under their coercion wouldn't they think that they are free to do anything that they want?" 

" Right now they are only stealing elder brother's works, later they might simply ask elder brother to work for their nephew and give all the credit to that Cui Deming." 

" They dare!" Old Master Fu banged his fist on the armrest of the chair on which he was sitting causing a low thump to echo in the room. 

" Why not?" Fu Yu Sheng knew how to manipulate someone without letting them pick up what he was doing, he smiled at his grandfather and further added, " They are lawless earlier and if we give in to them  now they would only think that we are scared of them, which will embolden them." 

Old Master Fu thought about it and realised that what his second grandson said was right, he pursued his lips and then asked, " Then what am I suppose to tell Researcher Cui? He told me to give an answer to him today." 

" Just tell him that Yan Yan had helped Chen Xi to get rid of the parasitic demons and it will take time for her to recover, with them panicking like this they will come grovelling soon…just hold on till then," Fu Yu Sheng was not going to make things difficult for their family but when he thought about how the Cui family cornered his grandfather by making use of his love and care for his grandson, he felt that it was only right for them to get on their knees! 

Song Yan turned to look at Fu Yu Sheng, seeing that he had given her a way out, she smiled at this husband of hers who had a belly full of bad ideas when it came to screwing people over and then turned to look at Old Master Fu before saying with a smile, " That is right, grandpa. I just helped Miss Chen Xi …I would like to take some rest, if I over-exert myself wouldn't your heart hurt?" 

Old Master Fu slapped his thigh and sneered, ever since last night he was feeling vexed, he was so angry that the Researcher Cui used his drunken daze to say so many things and even asked him for his help, now that his granddaughter-in-law had given him such a good idea, how can he not screw that Researcher Cui and his family?
