After Song Yan said her piece Chen Chu Chu did not linger long, she greeted Fu Yu Sheng and then left with Fu Shu Cheng. Even Bo Silin who was too embarrassed did not stay behind, he bid Song Yan and Fu Yu Sheng goodbye and then chased after Fu Shu Cheng and Chen Chu Chu.
Song Yan narrowed her eyes as she continued to look at the departing figures of the three. She has of course seen the woman looking at her husband with eyes that seemed to be filled with greed, it has nothing to with lust or affection instead her greed was related to something else which made Song Yan a bit confused, why will a woman look at a man with that kind of gaze… it was a bit too weird.
" Have you ever met with Chen Chu Chu before?" She asked wanting to know why Chen Chu Chu was looking at Fu Yu Sheng as if she was looking at him for the first time, who did not know that Fu Yu Sheng used to go and visit his elder brother once in a while the military when he was young.
" I haven't," Fu Yu Sheng shook his head and denied meeting Chen Chu Chu at once. When he saw that Song Yan was looking at him suspiciously, his lips twitched and he said, " I am not lying, I really did not see that woman before …she was adopted by her father when she was very old and was not appointed in the same lab as my big brother, what's more, she was engaged to another man and stayed with him for quite a long time which is why I never saw her."
When Song Yan heard that the woman was engaged to someone she was very surprised as she asked, " She was engaged to someone?"
" Of course, she was, even though she looks rather young but that is all because she went under the knife many times …the truth is that she is even older than elder brother, its just that she acts young and coupled with that face of hers, its hard to predict her age. She has changed so much in the years that it is even hard for me to recognize her and I am supposed to have photogenic memory." Fu Yu Sheng has indeed seen Chen Chu Chu when he was eighteen back then it was a banquet that was being held by one of his grandfather's comrades. Back then Chen Chu Chu did not look this pretty but now that he was looking at her, he couldn't help but be in awe upon seeing her face.
If not for the same voice, he would have thought that this woman was someone else!
Song Yan was already very curious about Chen Chu Chu and now that she smelled blood on her, she was even more curious about her, at first she thought that the woman was only involved in buying tools of black magic but now she couldn't help but think whether or not that woman was directly involved in some shady business.
" Then what happened to her fiancé'?" She asked suddenly very intrigued about how Chen Chu Chu got involved with Fu Shu Cheng.
" No one knows what happened to him," Fu Yu Sheng suddenly frowned as he recalled the incident that happened years ago. " I don't have any recollection of that time but I do know that on the day of the engagement banquet the man ran, away with another woman and left Chen Chu Chu alone, Brother Cheng told me that Chen Chu Chu's father was so furious that he passed out of anger and was taken to the hospital."
" Ever since then those who worked in the laboratory only became more fervent in pushing my brother and Chen Chu Chu together, they all thought that it was fate and felt that Chen Chu Chu was too pitiful to be left alone after getting embarrassed like this."
Pitiful? Song Yan was sure that the woman was anything but pitiful. Just from the thick scent of blood that was oozing out of the body of the woman, she could sense that Chen Chu Chu was not an ordinary woman at all, if anything she might be the one who was involved in making her fiancé vanish.
And no matter how many times a woman went under the knife, there was no way she would change so much that no one will be able to recognise her.
Of course, she knew that the skills of the beauty surgeons these days were crazy and they were capable enough to change the features of a woman completely but something about the woman struck her as odd. Others might not be able to tell it but she could see it through her yin and yang eyes, the woman never once went under the knife! She really did not believe that the woman suddenly changed so much with the help of skin care products that even Fu Yu Sheng could not recognise her.
Her husband could even recognise someone whom he has seen ten years ago even if they were to go through drastic changes.
As she thought about the smell of the blood that seemed to be clinging to every fibre of the body of the woman, Song Yan was sure that the woman was involved in some sort of black magic.
But what kind of dark magic? And as she has seen in the case of Wu Genji every dark magic came with a price, so what kind of price was this woman paying? And how? There must have been something that this woman was used in exchange but what?
Song Yan felt a bit flustered when she looked at the woman who was now entering the hospital with Fu Shu Cheng. Even though she could not see it, she could see that something was very off about this woman, if it was left in her hands then she would have chosen to stay away from this woman because she had a vague feeling that this woman wouldn't be an easy opponent.
But unfortunately for her, she has to go against Chen Chu Chu.
