Fu Rong did not know that Fu Qingyuan was planning something sinister at this moment she was talking to one of her friends who came to the banquet at her invite, she also invited Yu Wan but because the latter was sick and recovering from injuries that she received under the hands of Fu Qingyuan in the hospital, she could not make it to the old master Fu's birthday.
"Here you go," Shen Xin handed the small bag that she was carrying in her hands and then looked at Fu Rong with a smile. " Yu Wan told me to give this to you, she was really upset when her doctor did not allow her to leave her hospital bed that's why she handed me this gift that she purchased for your grandfather's birthday."
"There was no need for her to go through so much trouble," Fu Rong sighed but she still took the bag that Shen Xin was handing her. " How is she? Is she still suffering from nightmares?"
Yu Wan went through a hellish nightmare, these days even when she was sleeping she would be reminded of all the pain that she had to go through under the hands of Fu Qingyuan and would often wake up in the night, this was the reason why doctors of the Fu family wanted her to stay in the hospital because they were worried that Yu Wan's mental condition was too weak for her to withstand the pain that was causing her suffering.
" She is still the same," Shen Xin sighed she shook her head and then remembered the condition of Yu Wan who was still jumpy because of what Fu Qingyuan did and immediately felt anger surge in her heart. " You have no idea how bad Yu Wan's condition is, she can't even eat anything without getting nauseated. If it was up to me I would have scratched that Fu Qingyuan's face, such a ruthless woman like her deserves to suffer!"
As she spoke Shen Xin heard the sound of someone's laughter and then turned to look at the source of the laugh when she saw that it was Fu Qingyuan who was laughing even though she almost killed someone and did not even have the slightest bit of regret on her face, she almost lost her temper but then she remembered that she was at a birthday banquet and thus, she controlled her temper and harrumphed.
" Look at her, I have never seen someone as shameless as her." Shen Xin scoffed as she turned to look at Fu Rong who was looking at Fu Qingyuan with the same stony expression as hers.
"Let her be," though Fu Rong wanted to smack Fu Qingyuan just as much as Shen Xin did but she was no fool she knew that if she was to hit Fu Qingyuan here and now then she will be the one who will be making a joke out of herself. " We don't need to pay attention to someone like her, people like her are not worthy of our attention."
" You are right about that, anyway I heard that your eldest sister is here. If you don't mind, can you let me meet her? I have always been a big fan of hers." Shen Xin excitedly asked Fu Rong who chuckled but before she could answer Shen Xin, she heard her phone beep with a notification of the message.
She was slightly surprised at the notification, given that her friends were already in the party hall, there was no need for them to send her message instead of coming to look for her directly, she turned to look at Shen Xin who was smiling and then nodded, " I will bring you to my sister in law," as she said that she fished her phone out of her small handbag and then read the message that was sent to her.
At first, she thought that it was from a company or advertisement message but as she read the name of the sender, she realised that it was from Qiao Jing who wanted to talk to her about something and was waiting for her by the greenhouse.
Fu Rong frowned after reading the message, she could not understand why Qiao Jing was calling her outside but she still replied 'okay' and went to look for her eldest sister-in-law together with Shen Xin while she walked around the banquet hall, she looked around the entire place to make sure that Qiao Jing was really not in the banquet hall and to her surprise the man was indeed not present in the banquet hall.
With a slight purse of her lips, she walked over to where her eldest sister-in-law was and introduced Shen Xin to her. Before she turned around and walked over to the back door of the banquet hall that led to the backyard of the Fu mansion.
It was a really big garden with a maze built within it, and next to its entrance was the greenhouse that was twice the size of a small greenhouse present in the cities. Fu Rong looked at the gloomy atmosphere of the back garden and then turned to look at the banquet hall again, she wanted to make sure that she was not committing a mistake which was why she looked for Qiao Jing again and as on cue, her phone chimed with another notification.
'Where are you?' Was what the message said and Fu Rong took another look at the banquet hall before she walked outside the banquet hall. As soon as she walked out of the banquet hall, Fu Qingyuan who has been keeping a track of Fu Rong's movement smirked haughtily.
' Hah, this will teach the Fu family a good lesson. How dare they look down on me and my family! In the future, they will have to live with their heads lowered.' As Fu Qingyuan thought about it, she became overly pleased and then smiled happily but she did not get a chance to be happy for a long time because a second later she heard her cheeks blow hot air causing others to look at her weirdly.
