9 You deserve to die single and lonely

" Who is it, honey? Oh Yan'er, it's you?" Wen Mingzhi, who was working in the kitchen was surprised to see Song Yan. The sister in law of hers she knew, had always been timid and shy. Her head was always bowed and she emanated a rather gloomy aura, she would hardly meet anyone's eye and kept herself as inconspicuous as possible. Thus, when Wen Mingzhi saw Song Yan she was surprised because the woman in front of her look nothing like the Song Yan she knew of, instead, she was more confident and was glowing with an unexplainable dignity, if not for the familiar face, Wen Mingzhi wouldn't be able to recognize her.

But this was good too, like this she really look worthy of the young master Fu.

Wen Mingzhi tucked the messy locks of her hair behind her ears and cleaned her hands on the apron before walking towards Song Yan and pulling her in a hug "It's good to see you after such a long time. It's good that you came now, I was just getting ready to make dinner"

Song Yan stiffened when she was pulled in a warm hug but immediately her stiffness melted away as a familiar scent filled her nostrils. Yes, this was how her sister in law smelled, not of dirt and mud with cold yin energy chafing out of her tombstone. Back then she was too confused and didn't understand what happened because her consciousness was devoid of any human sentiments but she did remember that after her death, Song Lingyan too swiftly met with an accident. At that time, Wen Mingzhi was pregnant and couldn't suffer the blow, Song Yan had gone to look for her after she was able to regain some of her human senses- but by then it was too late.

Wen Mingzhi's child was dead and after losing her husband and child one by one, Wen Mingzhi committed suicide as well. That was what Song Yan thought but now that she remembered the strong Yin energy coming from Wen Mingzhi's tombstone and the black qi circulating around Song Lingyan, she could more or less understand that it must be something to do with Song Lan.

That bitch just didn't want her luck but also her entire bloodline to end! This debt she, Song Yan will never forget!

When Wen Mingzhi hugged Song Yan, she felt something warm trickle down on her neck, she immediately as she pulled back hurriedly and went rigid when she saw that those thick, fine, long lashes were fluttering with tears like a water lily caught up in rain. Song Yan's face was flushed and she was biting her lips from stopping herself to cry out, Wen Mingzhi's heart thumped as she exchanged a worried glance with Song Lingyan who hurriedly took Fu Chen to the other room where the television was after he turned on the television and switched to a cartoon before returning to the living room.

Fu Chen had seen his mother cry so he couldn't sit still but he didn't want anyone to worry about him that's why he didn't make a fuss and let his uncle to carry him to the other room. Once Song Lingyan was gone, Fu Chen hurriedly jumped off the sofa and rushed to the door before turning sideways and putting his ear on the door to eavesdrop.

" Yan Yan, what's wrong? Did someone bully you? Tell brother! Brother will definitely avenge you" Song Lingyan was obviously no longer a rich second generation heir but he was used to protecting his sister, now that he saw her cry how could he not get angry? He was enraged - no infuriated at the sight of his sister's tears.

Song Yan heard her brother's word and suddenly had an urge to cry even more - for thousands of years, she roamed around the world but no one ever said these words again, not until Gu Yijin came to possess the ring of Yin. But no one can replace her brother in her heart, these words she had longed to hear for more than three thousand years.

"It's nothing, brother I am fine" though Song Yan smiled after wiping her tears, the worry in Song Lingyan and Wen Mingzhi's faces didn't vanish instead their brows furrowed even further. The two of them looked at each other before turning to look at Song Yan.

" Don't lie to me Yan Yan, you were always a bad liar?" said Song Lingyan as he pulled Song Yan and wiped her tears from her eyes " And you have a little tell as well, do you think that big brother doesn't know about that? Quick spit out what is it that made you cry like this?"

" I - I am divorcing Fu Yu Sheng. " said Song Yan as she blew her nose in the handkerchief that her brother handed her " I am done, I can't do this anymore, it's fine if he doesn't care about me but he should at least come and see Chen Chen... I don't even remember when he last saw our son"

" Humph, when he last saw Chen Chen? Do you say? Ptooey! Isn't it when he came two years ago? Meeting his own wife and child is like a task to him that he puts on the checklist and tick it off once he sees you two!" Snapped Song Lingyan, he was never willing to have over his beautiful and cute sister to that 24/7 working maniac! Sunday included but his father was willing! See where it brought his sister?

" What are you talking about?" Wen Mingzhi knocked on her husband's forehead and immediately chided him " Is this the time for you to say these things?"

" I am speaking the truth! If that man had a teaspoon of common sense then he wouldn't be getting divorced by my sister! She is a literal angel and her temper is the best in our family -yet he managed to piss her off what are you scolding me for?" Then he turned to look at Song Yan and raised a thumbs up " You are doing good, it's good to divorce that workaholic, he deserves to die single and alone!"

" You-"

" Don't get angry on brother, Sister Ming. I have made up my mind" said Song Yan smiling at her sister in law " I don't think I can carry on with such a cold relationship.. it not I about whom I am worried about but Chen Chen, I don't want his longing for his father to turn into depression"

Wen Mingzhi pursed her lips but didn't say while Song Linyan immediately changed the topic. Neither of the three adults knew that Fu Chen had heard everything and now he was standing beside the door with a puffed face that has gone red beyond saving. He hurriedly took out his smartwatch and sent a text to his father.

——

In another country.

Fu Yu Sheng who just came out of a shower picked up his chiming cellphone and immediately stiffened because on the screen were the word ' You deserve to die alone and single! Stupid daddy!'

He softly put his cellphone down, rubbed his face and once again looked at the message - the words were still the same, in the middle of the night an enraged bang was heard from the cold and classy master Fu's room.
