A/n: sorry for short chapter we have a power outage and its 24 hours since then my Lappy isn't charged. Only I know how I was able to write this much
On one hand, Chu Lian and Song Lan were having a good time and on another hand, Song Yan was having the time of her life as she took a bite of the pecking duck. Though she was supposed to be keeping her diet in check, she wouldn't be willing to say no to a free meal ticket either, as she chewed the deliciously savoury meat, she couldn't help but relish the taste…ah, a five-star meal was indeed better than others. The meat was fresh and the flavours were carefully blended in, though her sister-in-law's cooking was really good… in the end, she has to skimp and save money and couldn't buy fresh meat and that greatly diminished the taste of the dishes that she cooked.
Fu Yu Sheng watched Song Yan happily munch on the pecking duck meat and felt a bit sullen, was it really good? It tasted pretty normal to him and compared to all the dishes that were cooked by the chef of the Fu family this meal couldn't be considered that delicious either can it? He picked up a piece of the pecking duck meat that was served on the table and carefully took a bite of it before gulping it down with the tea that was served together with the dishes.
Blegh, it wasn't even on par with the cooking of the Fu family's chefs was there any reason for her to get so happy? How would Fu Yu Sheng know that the reason this meal tasted really good to Song Yan was that she was eating a good meal after a very long time? When she was a ghost, she could of course not eat anything… and when she returned to her past, she walked away from the Fu family to avoid getting entangled with Song Lan headlong back then since she wasn't that powerful enough to take care of all the schemes that she has in that scheming little head of hers.
So, from then on she has been eating home-cooked meals only and the last delicious thing she ate was the King crab meat that Fu Yu Sheng treated her with but back then she was too worried about her son that she couldn't even taste it properly. Now everything was good and she was calm as well, so she didn't have to worry about anything and could enjoy her meal in peace.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWang Yufan saw that Song Yan was enjoying her meal and secretly heaved a sigh of relief, at least she was in a good mood now. "Sister-in-law, about Little Mei what is the right time to take care of her curse?"
Song Yan wiped the oil and sauce that was sticking to the corner of her lips before answering. " It would be best if the curse is broken as soon as possible, after all, bandaging a festering wound doesn't heal it, at most, it delays the suffering one has to suffer. I have bounded the curse at a single spot and stopped it from spearheading all over her body but that definitely doesn't mean that we can leave it at that we have to take care of it as soon as possible, because the more you delay it the stronger it will become. And if that happens it might break through the barrier that I have put on it."
Wang Yufan pursed his lips as he placed the chopsticks that he was holding in his hands down, looks like he has to look for a red diamond and bring it back immediately. As he was thinking about it, a thought came to his mind and he looked at Song Yan before asking "Sister-in-law you said that once the curse is broken it will be rebounded does that mean that Yu Yize has to pay for what he did ?"
"That goes without saying," said Song Yan as she took a sip of her tea and placed it down. " He was the one who cast the curse of Little Mei, once it's broken both he and the master would have to suffer in place of Little Mei."
" Even if you trap the curse?"
" Even if I trap the curse," affirmed Song Yan. " Trapping a curse is a different thing and it's getting rebounded because it was broken, is another thing."
Before Wang Yufan could say anything, a sensual voice called out to him from behind. " Brother Yufan, you are here?"
Everyone who was sitting at the table looked up in the direction from where the voice came from. Song Yan who raised her head and saw a woman in her twenties walking over to Wang Yufan, her eyes distinctly narrowed when she noticed the fluffy tail that was poking out of her skirt, however, she was the only one who saw it other than her no one noticed anything.
" Brother Yufan, what are you doing here?" asked the woman as she strode closer to Wang Yufan and tucked a long strand of hair behind her ear. " You were coming here but you didn't even call me? Don't you think that you are putting too much of a distance between us? When we were young we used to come here every day."
" Chu Chu, don't be like this," though Wang Yufan seemed to be reprimanding her, his tone was full of doting as he looked at her with eyes that were full of love. Song Yan's eyes narrowed and then her gaze darted to the dark red hue on the waterline of Chu Chu's eyes, and her spine straightened with caution. This woman wasn't as simple as she looked.
Chu Chu smiled and looked at Wang Yufan before her gaze slid to Fu Yu Sheng and her eyes slowly lit up. This man… his Yang energy was far better than Wang Yufan's. " Brother Yufan this is…?" She naively tilted her head and looked in Fu Yu Sheng's direction, seeing this Song Yan hurriedly raised her feet and stomped on Fu Yu Sheng's causing him to jump in surprise as he looked at her with an incredulous expression.
However, she paid no attention to his expression instead all her attention was on the woman who was eyeing her man. If this was a normal woman she wouldn't have paid any heed to her but the thing was that this woman was not a normal woman, forget about being a normal woman, she wasn't even a woman! Instead, she was a fallen fox demon!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA fox demon was supposed to be wise and considerably intelligent when compared to humans but fallen fox demons were wicked beings, those who have been cast aside for their arrogance and greed would slowly succumb to a stage so low that they will have no difference when compared to malevolent spirits who relied on sucking the Yang of human beings.
And from what Song Yan could see, she was certain that either this woman was a fallen fox demon or she was possessed by one ——— however, her soul was in too much harmony for her to be possessed by one.
With those red-hued eyes, she most probably depended on men for sucking their bodies dry of their Yang energies and then killing them.
Now this woman was eyeing her husband, of course, she have to be very careful. Even though she had no plans of reconciling with Fu Yu Sheng, she wouldn't like her hair to go greener than a f*cking pasture.
" This is my childhood friend, Fu Yu Sheng," Wang Yufan introduced as he pointed at Fu Yu Sheng with a smile. "Brother Fu, this is my friend from the race track Jiang Chu Chu."
Fu Yu Sheng was busy wondering about why his feet were being drilled by Song Yan's heel and didn't pay any attention to Jiang Chu Chu except glancing at her for a few moments before his gaze flickered and he turned to look at Song Yan again with a questioning glance.
Jiang Chu Chu's smile stiffened before she turned to look at Wang Yufan again and asked in an excited voice, " I haven't seen you at the race track for a while, when are you coming back?"
Just listening to the name of the race track was enough to make Wang Yufan shudder, he shook his head and looked at Jiang Chu Chu with a slightly apologetic smile, " I am afraid that it's not possible, you were not there and have no idea how bad my accident was, I nearly lost my life… I think it's better for me not to go back to the racing track anymore."
Jiang Chu Chu licked her lips and inwardly heaved a sigh of relief at least her powers were still working. Then she smiled and patted Wang Yufan's shoulder before looking at him anxiously. " Accident? Why didn't you tell me?" Then her gaze snapped to Song Yan and Fu Yu Sheng before she smilingly added, " You have company today, we will talk tomorrow, alright? Same place? Same time?"
" Sure," Wang Yufan agreed without much thought making Song Yan facepalm, seriously … no wonder this guy still had a black Qi hovering over his head.
