" That's right, why are you questioning Haoyu like he is the one who caused the accident?" Aunt Fu harshly snapped at Song Yan, she has never been fond of Song Yan because of her questionable background and now that the woman was actually questioning her son, she was even more upset with her.
Seeing that Song Yan was actually trying to rope her son into the mess, Aunt Fu immediately turned to Old master Fu and complained, " Look at her dad, Yu Sheng's wife clearly knows that her husband is at fault but instead of accepting her mistake and accepting that her husband made a wrong decision, she is questioning Haoyu! Everyone knows that Haoyu treats Yu Shen the best."
The old master frowned upon hearing his daughter's words but Song Yan didn't give him a chance to reprimand her instead she immediately attacked Aunt Fu in return.
" What are you talking about Aunt Fu? When did I question brother Haoyu?" Song Yan feigned innocence as she looked at Ji Haoyu and Aunt Fu. " I know that brother Haoyu treats Yu Shen the best, after all when the both of them were in middle school, Brother Haoyu selflessly took the extra classes arranged for students while he allowed Yu Shen to sneak out of the school and let him play games with those bullies of his school."
" And then when the two of them went to college, Brother Haoyu choose the same stream as Yu Shen. He would let Yu Shen sleep in the class while he would tirelessly write down his notes."
" After Yu Shen was given the responsibility of managing the company, Brother Haoyu took all the responsibilities and allowed Yu Shen to slack off while hiding his whereabouts from me and Yu Sheng," finished Song Yan as she looked at the pale faces of the mother and son pair delightfully. " I know that brother Haoyu has been working hard for the sake of Yu Shen, all these years, of course."
How did she know? This was Ji Haoyu's first thought as he looked at Song Yan who was smiling at him. How in the world did she find out everything about what happened between Fu Yu Shen and him?
Song Yan of course knew what Ji Haoyu has been doing all these years, after all, when he failed to acquire the business of the Fu family and was cornered by Fu Yu Sheng into confessing every single bit of his guilt, he rather boastfully told everything that he has done to Fu Yu Sheng.
He confessed how he worked hard and pushed Fu Yu Shen to become a good-for-nothing all these years with his own mouth and took extreme delight when Fu Yu Sheng punched him in the face.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this? I was just trying to help Yu Shen, isn't this why you and brother Sheng hired me? And this is not important at the moment, the most important thing is that this woman is carrying Yu Shen's child, should you not deal with this matter first..." Ji Haoyu immediately tried to change the topic when he noticed that old master Fu's eyes were narrowing with suspicion. " Grandfather? This is your great-grandchild." He added trying to distract old master Fu.
"That's..." Old master Fu began but he was interrupted by Song Yan who hurriedly said, " If you want to talk about this then you should have told me about it," seeing that Ji Haoyu was looking at her in confusion, Song Yan sneered and said, " I am the matriarch of this family now, grandfather has already retired there is no need for you to trouble him with such matter. The matter regarding the spouses of Yu Shen and Rong'er should be dealt with by me."
After Song Yan finished speaking, Ji Haoyu's eyes widened as he looked at her in shock even Qi Genghis stiffened as she turned to look at Song Yan who smiled at her until her eyes crinkled.
Song Yan was the matriarch? When did this happen?
" Ah that's right," Old master Fu blinked his eyes and nodded as he said, " Before leaving for recuperation last time, I handed Yan Yan the responsibilities of the family's matriarch. It's just that it has been more than a year and I completely forgot about this matter."
Completely forgot about this matter? Was this old man going senile? Ji Haoyu savagely scolded the old master Fu as he clenched his fingers until his nails were digging into his palms.
He just happened to forget that Song Yan and Fu Yu Sheng's positions in the family were upgraded, was he suffering from Alzheimer's? How can he forget something so important?
" I refuse!" Aunt Fu was the first one to object as she looked at Song Yan in disdain. " With what right can she of all people become the matriarch of the Fu family, who does she thinks she ----"
" On the basis that she is my wife, aunt," before Aunt Fu can say anything nasty, Fu Yu Sheng cut her off at once. He turned his head to look at his aunt and narrowed his eyes sharply causing the older woman to stiffen as she lowered her head. " And I will like to remind you that you are already married, what happens in the Fu family has nothing to do with you, so your objection does not count."
Immediately, Aunt Fu's face flushed as she turned to her father as she looked at him with a teary gaze and cried, " Father will you look at Yu Sheng, he is treating his aunt so rudely like this."
" If you show my wife the respect that she deserves then I will show you the respect that you deserve, aunt," Fu Yu Sheng has never been a people pleaser at most he was his wife pleaser. He could care less about what his aunt thought about him. " Respect is earned than being taken, it's simple as that."
" I am your elder!"
" Then start acting like one!"
" Enough!"

Author's word: I will be increasing the privilege chapter next month because I am seeing that many readers instead of reading the book on web novel and supporting me, they are reading it on pirated sites. So from next month onwards, the privilege chapter will go from 2 to 6. If this continues then the privilege chapter will only increase even more.
