Chapter 1129 Little to nothing
Xue Ping was indeed upset about losing a man like Fu Yu Sheng, he was even more capable than her ex-husband who was just a small merchant. It would be impossible for her not to feel bad given that she could not chase after Fu Yu Sheng any more.
After all her situation was pressing and if she dared to do something to Fu Yu Sheng then she was afraid that Song Yan would no longer help her. So no matter how uncomfortable and unhappy she felt, she still respectfully greeted Fu Yu Sheng and Song Yan.
Fu Yu Sheng looked at Ji Ziyi—— no, she should be called Xue Ping now and calmly looked away. He did not even want to acknowledge a woman as dangerous and vile as her.
Xue Ping's face stiffened when she saw that Fu Yu Sheng was ignoring her but she still squeezed out a smile for Song Yan. With her current condition, she could only curry favour with Song Yan and hope that she would help her as soon as possible. She could no longer act as haughty and bossy as she did in the past.
Ji Zhuang Guang also knew that his sister had tried to snatch Fu Yu Sheng because she started to have a crush on him and thus stiffened as well. He sighed in relief when he saw that his sister did not make a fuss upon seeing Fu Yu Sheng. He looked at Fu Yu Sheng and greeted him with a polite voice, " Nice to meet you, President Fu."
" Nice to meet you too," Fu Yu Sheng greeted with an indifferent voice which was completely different to the one that he used with Song Yan. When Ji Jinfu and his brother saw that Fu Yu Sheng was acting so haughty with their brother, they were really dissatisfied with him but their brother glared at them and stopped them from making any sound.
The atmosphere in the ward turned really stiff which caused Ji Zhuang Guang to smile stiffly.
Song Yan was very happy with how Fu Yu Sheng was acting. Although his face went against the heavens, it was a good thing that he was willing to keep all kinds of birds and bees away from him. At least he knew that his golden retriever energy was only for her. This made it impossible for anyone to ruin their relationship.
Song Yan turned to look at Xue Ping before she said, " Did anyone from you step out of the ward in the morning?" She asked this question because Xue Ping had a rather thick and dark aura sticking on her back. There was also the stench of death and decay coming from her, something others might have not noticed but with her senses, she could.
As she spoke, Song Yan looked at Xue Ping who stiffened.
Xue Ping who had been eyeing Fu Yu Sheng till now, while wishing that she could make a move on him felt her lips tremble. She had indeed stepped out of the ward in the morning because she received a call from her brother, he was her biological brother when she was still Xue Ping and knew all about her secrets.
She had tried to kill him many times but that man had a good hold on her even if he died he would still disclose the truth of her identity.
If she hadn't picked up his calls he would have tormented her even more but the three Ji brothers were in the ward and she could only sneak out of the ward when two of them were taking a nap and Ji Nan was taking a bath.
How could Ji Zhuang Guang not see that his sister was having a guilty conscience? He looked at Ji Ziyi and then said, " Ziyi, did you step out of the ward?"
" I… I …" Xue Ping who was already nervous felt her nerves go even tauter than before she licked her lips and then said, " There was an emergency and I had to head out of the room," she turned to look at Song Yan and asked in a hurry, " Why is there something wrong with me?"
Song Yan shook her head and then heavily breathed before saying in a low voice, " Miss Ji, how many times did I tell you that you cannot go out? The malicious ghost wants to kill you and no one else. By heading out you have caused yourself to become the target of the ghost who was waiting for you. I believe you did not even take a look at the talisman that you are carrying."
No sooner did Song Yan finish speaking, Xue Ping took out the talisman from her pocket and let out a cry when she saw that the talisman was almost black with only a thin yellow strip left untainted.
Seeing this Song Yan clicked her tongue and added,?" It was a narrow miss, Miss Ji. My talismans are stronger than others which is why you are still alive if not you would be dead by now. If you are going to act like this then I suggest that you look for another master, I cannot understand just what kind of thing is even more important than your life. You went out of the ward when I told you clearly not to do that … do you even know that you could have died?"
" This is not just willfulness, Miss Ji. If you ask me this is sheer stupidity!"
She did not say this just because she wanted to show the Ji Brothers how little Xue Ping thought of this body that she was occupying but also wanted to raise their guard and suspicion.
Sure enough, Ji Zhuang Guang looked at Ji Ziyi with a look of confusion in his eyes. What could possibly make this sister of his head out of the ward? When she knew that it was nothing but danger outside!
Xue Ping also noticed the suspicion in Ji Zhuang Guang's eyes but she could not care about him at the moment because her life was in danger! The fact that the talisman turned black meant that the ghost was close to her all along when she was talking with her brother, even though it was early in the afternoon!
