Chapter 1448: A strange case
"Yan Yan?" Brother Song was cooking in the kitchen when he heard his father talking to someone. As his wife was taking a nap in their bedroom, he knew it wasn't his wife.
And as he stepped out of the kitchen, he saw his sister walking next to his father.
"Brother!" Song Yan smiled at Brother Song who seemed shell-shocked upon seeing her. When he returned home, he didn't think that he would see his sister tonight.
"When did you arrive? Why did you not tell me that you were coming home today? I would have come to pick you up?" Brother Song walked over to Song Yan's side and then hugged her. He then lowered his gaze and smiled at Fu Chen.
"Ah! My dear nephew is here as well!" Brother Song let go of Song Yan. He crouched down picked up Fu Chen from the ground and hugged him tight in his arms. "Look at you getting so big!"
"Uncle let go of me! I am a big boy now!" Fu Chen squealed when he was hugged by his uncle. However, he didn't push Song Lingyan away and let him hug him as much as he wanted.
"Ahaha, yes my dear nephew is grown up,"
Song Lingyan sighed with a fake sad expression.
"Now my Chen Chen no longer loves his uncle as he did in the past. Look at him refusing to let me hug him."
Fu Chen pursed his lips and said to his uncle, "I am not refusing you, Uncle Lingyan."
"Then does that mean that I can hug you more!?" Song Lingyan perked up immediately as he hugged Fu Chen once more.
Fu Chen soon realised that he was fooled, and yelled at Song Lingyan angrily, "UNCLE!"
"What's going on?" Wen Mingzhi who was sleeping was woken up by the squeals and laughter in the main hall.
She couldn't help but step out of her room and when she saw Song Yan and Fu Chen, her eyes lit up as she rushed over to where Song Yan was.
"Sister Yan! You are home?" Wen Mingzhi smilingly spoke as she came to a stop in front of Song Yan who was extra worried when she saw Wen Mingzhi run.
"Calm down, there is no need for you to run like this!" Song Yan said to Wen Mingzhi, that even though she was only four months along, she still needed to care about herself.
Wen Mingzhi poked her tongue out of her mouth as she said, "I am fine, sister Yan. Look around, Father and Lingyan had covered the entire house with non-slippery carpet and had even cushioned it properly."
Song Yan glanced around the house and sure enough, the entire house was Wen Mingzhi padded, to make sure that she did not fall.
"Isn't that because you are simply unable to stop yourself from running here and there?" Song Lingyan stopped kissing Fu Chen on the cheeks and then turned to look at his wife.
He rolled his eyes and said in a lighthearted manner, "Listen to this Yan Yan, I asked your sister-in-law to stop running to the boutique every morning and she also promised that she would stop going to the boutique."
"That was a month ago! She is still going to the boutique as she wants and likes."
"Fufu," Wen Mingzhi laughed lightly with her hand placed in front of her mouth. She said to Song Yan, "It is not that I don't want to stop. It is just that I cannot stop."
"Why?" Song Yan asked as far as she knew the Song Family was no longer in the same condition as before.
Wen Mingzhi could take a break if that's what she wanted.
Upon hearing her question, Wen Mingzhi's expression turned cold as she replied, "It's because my sister opened a boutique right next to mine."
Song Yan's eyebrows furrowed as she turned to look at Song Lingyan who sighed and then helped Fu Chen down while Song Dong Ming went to the kitchen to look at the seafood congee that his son was cooking.
"It is just as you expected Yan Yan. The second our family turned around for the better, the Wen family came to ask for help."
"They wanted a collaboration with our family such that they can also release the Bone Marrow cleansing pills."
"Of course we refused them. They might have forgotten how they treated us when we were in trouble but we cannot. Especially Mingzhi."
Wen Mingzhi smiled cruelly and remarked, "How can I? I still haven't forgotten when I went to the Wen House and begged them to let my husband have a small job."
"I did not care whether it was a security guard job as long as we could pay our bills. But my own parents had me dragged out of the house and thrown on the street."
"Is this the kind of humiliation anyone can just forget?"
"Alright, why are you getting angry," Song Lingyan walked over to his wife's side and rubbed her back.
"Anyway, I refused to collaborate when my parents came to beg for a chance, I might be anything but not petty," Wen Mingzhi snorted.
"I kicked them out, of course I could not have them dragged like they did to me because they are my parents but that was enough to make them angry."
"So they are trying to sabotage my boutique by having my sister open one just next to me," Wen Mingzhi curled her lips as she muttered, "Most probably they are trying to suppress me into giving into their whims."
In the past, she was too weak to fight against her parents and siblings. She would go along with what they wanted all the time, but now --
Wen Mingzhi rubbed her belly. She could no longer just let them take things away from her! She had to get stronger for the sake of her child!
Song Yan's brows furrowed as she said, "Should I take care of this?" She could easily make that woman close her boutique.
"There is no need," Wen Mingzhi smiled as her eyes glinted with determination. "My sister and parents believe that she is better at everything just because she knows how to sweet talk."
"But the truth is that she cannot even compare to my skills."
"My sister can win over my brothers and parents but she cannot win over my customers with those lousy skills of hers."
"I would love to crush that confidence of hers on my own, so sister Yan...leave her to me." Song Yan was thinking about releasing ghosts in the boutique of Wen Mingzhi's sister but after hearing Wen Mingzhi's words, she decided to put her plans to a halt for now.
"Alright, if that's what you want."
"Kids! It's dinner time!" Song Dong Ming stepped out of the kitchen and started setting the dining table.
Song Yan saw him fret around and immediately went to help him. She knew that the reason the Song family cooked their meals was because of the many instances where they were almost drugged and poisoned.
Fu Chen looked at the simple spread on the dining table and sighed. From lamb chops to congee his life was truly hard, wasn't it?
Of course, Song Yan noticed his sulking gaze and said to him, "I will make braised lamb chops for you along with beggar's shrimp. Alright?"
Only then did Fu Chen look a bit better.
The Song family had a quiet dinner before they all went to bed.
Of course, during the entire time, Song Yan's phone kept buzzing but she did not even think of picking it up, since he wanted to hide everything so much then he might as well hide it well!
'Idiot!' Song Yan muttered as she got into her bed and turned her back on the vibrating phone.
On the other side, Fu Yu Sheng rubbed his forehead when he saw that his wife was still not
picking up his call.
He knew that she was stubborn but
Sometimes her stubbornness was just not cute!
He turned his head and looked at the cold bed before sighing.
Looks like he will have to sleep alone tonight. Damn it!
Next morning,
Song Yan woke up and went to do her daily job without any problems.
She updated her social media account and changed the location to S city from the capital lest someone call her to exorcise ghosts in the capital when she was not in the capital.
Song Yan thought that it would take some time for her to get a client after changing the
location but to her surprise, someone pinged her at once!
"What the?" Song Yan looked at her messages and tapped on them before seeing the client's
information.
It was a strange case of a woman who owned a studio in the S city. She was one of the richest women in the S city and had everything but for some reason every time she married a man, her
husband would die.
Her children met the same fate.
Thus, even though the woman had everything she was lonely and stranded from everyone.
