A good banquet was prepared for the old master Fu but thanks to the third Uncle Fu and Third Aunt Fu's annoying behaviour the entire banquet was ruined for the Fu family. The old master was in no mood to continue with the banquet but he knew that his grandchildren have worked hard for this banquet which was why he did not say anything further. Instead, he went ahead and picked up a delicate champagne glass that was handed to him by the server who was working at the banquet.
" Good evening ladies and gentlemen," said Old master Fu as he raised the champagne glass in his hands and looked at the crowd that has gathered for his birthday banquet.
No sooner did his powerful voice fall, the boisterous room immediately turned silent and then their attention was attracted by the old master Fu who was standing on the small stage with his grandsons.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt" I would like to thank you all for gracing us with your presence," Old master Fu raised his voice slightly and with his rosy cheeks, he did not look like he was celebrating his eightieth birthday. Seeing his blushing complexion, everyone else was shocked, just last year Old master Fu looked like he was going to kick the bucket any moment but instead, after a year he seemed to have gotten even healthier.
What kind of sanatorium did the Old master Fu go to? That they pulled an old man who was on the verge of dying back to his feet. What they did not know was that the old master Fu was eating the blood rejuvenation pills that were given to him by Song Yan and thus he was feeling more and more healthy and energetic than he did a year ago.
" My grandchildren have prepared this small banquet for their old man, I cannot express how grateful I feel for the efforts they all have put in this…."
" You seem to be settling down in the Fu family real nice, aren't you?" Song Yan was standing beside the stage since she did not like to stay under the limelight for long and was waiting for the Old master Fu's speech to finish when she heard the voice that she did not want to hear at all.
She turned to look at the woman who came to stand behind her, a part of her was itching to place her hands on the neck of Chu Lian who was dressed in a royal blue dress with a tail that dragged behind her on the floor. A sly smile was decorating her lips while she looked at Song Yan who was looking at her with a calm look in her eyes, she shook her head slightly to brush away the strands of the hair that were falling over her eyes and then said to Song Yan with a smile, "What happened? You don't look happy to see me."
" I am as happy as you are after seeing me happy, Madam Chu," replied Song Yan as she crossed her arms and then turned her body sideways such that she was looking at the woman who was standing next to her with a smile on her face. "Where is your husband? Is he looking around for another investor for a business proposal that is going to fail ?"
Song Wang Lei did not have enough wits to take control of such a big company for him to sit in the position that belonged to Song Dong Ming was like asking a seagull to fly an aeroplane perfectly. He might have some knowledge when it came to running a company but he was not capable enough, he has been making investments that were making a loss for a very long time causing the Song corporation to slowly get worse and worse.
But his arrogance was something that he refused to accept that he was not as good as his brother.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChu Lian knew something about this as well thus Song Yan's words were like a smack to her face, her smile that was on her face stiffened and she narrowed her gaze as she looked at Song Yan in distaste. " You think that you have won? Do you think that just because you broke free of the luck-borrowing array, you will be able to get away from my grasp? You are still very much naive Song Yan just like your mother."
Chu Lian deliberately brought Song Yan's mother up because she wanted Song Yan to lose control after all, now that the woman knew that she was the one who killed that b! tch surely she will be upset upon hearing her mention that woman. If Song Yan loses control then she would be able to make a joke out of this girl whose wings have hardened.
But contrary to her expectations Song Yan did not get angry instead she smiled with a graceful curl of her lips. " You are right, I haven't won …yet."
The word yet for some reason caused Chu Lian's heart to start thudding violently in her chest as she looked at Song Yan who was looking at her with a smile but she still swallowed and then spoke in a mock courageous manner, "It is great that you know——"
" I will only win when I will see you wither and die like my mother," before Chu Lian could finish what she was saying Song Yan interrupted her with a blank yet very cold expression, causing the courage that Chu Lian has summoned to curb away again. Song Yan took a step forward and then looked into Chu Lian's eyes as she smiled and then sneered, " I can't say that I am the winner until I see you dying with my own eyes Chu Lian, the same way my mother did…bit by bit until your grudge reaches its peak wanting to kill me yet you will never be able to touch me. I want you to feel that desperation, only then will I be winning in this game between you and me."
She lowered her head such that she was looking into Chu Lian's eyes and curled a side of her lips. " I am so looking forward to it."
