Qi Genghis's face turned grim as she looked at Song Yan who was looking at her like she was an annoyance and pursed her lips in anger, she wanted to snap at Song Yan and call her out for being too much but the identity of the latter as the matriarch of the Fu family made her stop. In the end, after working furiously for a while, Qi Genghis smiled and then lowered her head submissively as she said, " Forgive me, second madam Fu. This is my first time being in such a place, I can't help but feel uncomfortable which is why I am trying to get close to the people here."
She deliberately made herself sound like a pitiful young maiden who was hoodwinked by the master of the rich family and then abandoned, Qi Genghis was actually trying to copy Song Yan's actions from the past when she married the Fu family, she knew that she was not good enough for Fu Yu Sheng which was why she has always acted meekly in front of the Fu family members.
By acting as such Qi Genghis was thinking that she will be able to get close to Song Yan by evoking her sympathy but the only thing that she was able to evoke was Song Yan's fury and disgust. Of course, Song Yan knew that she used to act like this in the past because she was afraid that she will be tossed out of the Fu Family, after all even though she was beautiful and had a good education, she did not have many options in front of her back then.
Her father pampered her to the moon and back and he never once asked Song Yan to work, which was why she never knew how to work and earn money. Afraid of being disdained, Song Yan would butter up the members of the Song family and now that she was seeing Qi Genghis act like her, making her remember her past, Song Yan was so furious that she wished she could slap her past self as well as Qi Genghis.
This woman, she was deliberately embarrassing her! Her dark history was being publicised like this, where will she put her face?
Butler Ke was walking over to the kitchen as well, he was going to prepare a meal for the old master Fu when he suddenly heard the voice of Qi Genghis who was bowing in front of Song Yan, he, of course, understood what Qi Genghis was trying to say and then tentatively glanced at the second madam, when Butler Ke saw the furious expression on his second madam he knew that Qi Genghis had made a mistake.
This young woman, surely was a little fool was she not? How can she not know that even though the second madam was a bit shy and weak in the past but now things were different, and now that the madam was like this, Qi Genghis acting as her past self was like making a mockery out of her?
And sure enough, he heard the madam's sneering voice a second later. " If you are uncomfortable then you can go ahead and leave, no one is asking you to stay here and make yourself suffer."
Qi Genghis thought that she will definitely be able to make Song Yan sympathise with her but instead, she heard the woman ask her to leave. Instinctively, she wanted to say something harsh to Song Yan, after all the two of them were the same kind of woman, it was just that Song Yan was a bit more fortunate than her but when she raised her head and looked at Song Yan, she felt her knees buckle under her subconsciously.
She did not even recover until Song Yan turned around and walked up the stairs, it was only when Butler Ke walked out of his hiding corner and cleared his throat before asking, " Should I call a car for you miss Qi?"
Only then did Qi Genghis's face turn red in humiliation as she snapped out of her daze even though Song Yan has not made things difficult for her and she hasn't raised her hand at her, Qi Genghis still felt that someone has slapped her heavily.
…
Song Yan returned to her room with a heavy expression but she shook herself awake, she might have been foolish in the past but she was not the same Song Yan as she was but seeing Qi Genghis act like that made her really embarrassed. Was she really like that? Did she really use to bow her head in front of that idiot Fu Yu Shen like that? How humiliating!
To stop herself from feeling bad, Song Yan then picked up the pill refiner and then threw herself into researching the one product that she was sure will definitely help her succeed. If she was feeling bad in her heart then she will just have to work hard until she no longer felt bad about being Song Yan.
Qi Genghis will get her comeuppance sooner or later as well!
As she worked on the pill refiner, Song Yan opened the top of the lid and added the clear mineral water that the Fu family used and then closed the lid before instilling her Yin energy inside the pill refiner, as she poured the yin energy inside the pill refiner and channelled it in the water, all sort of impurities started to slowly cover the bottom of the pill refiner while sparkling liquid with a midnight blue shade.
Song Yan continued to instil her Yin energy into the pill refiner until she filled a big bottle with the midnight blue liquid. Her eyes shimmered as she looked at the bottle in which the blue water was sloshing inside it, now she was ready to release her first product in the market.
…
"She ignored me! Calling me a nuisance, can you not understand what I am trying to say?" When Qi Genghis called Ji Haoyu to tell him how Song Yan treated her but the latter did not treat her seriously instead he asked her to continue with the same plan. " You want me to suck up to that woman? I am not going to do it! Who does she think she is?"
