" But how will we get closer to that Ning Ying?" asked Chen Xi before slithering back to her bed, as she turned around, she left a trail of small snakes behind her back that wriggled on the floor of the room, trying to nip at the carpeted floor. " More importantly, we haven't gotten another layer of skin over our bodies and a new set of organs—— if this goes on then our bodies will fall."
Chen Chu Chu's eyes flickered as her forked tongue licked her lips and she said, " There is nothing to worry about, in a few days that foolish brother of ours will hold a prayer meet for his dead wife. He seemed to have invited a lot of people from the military district including that new pregnant wife of Yan Bao, we will be able to get an even softer layer of human skin, don't worry."
Only then Chen Xi heaved a sigh of relief as she looked at the human skin that was lying on the bed, she had used this skin so many times and even though she had absorbed the fine features of the women from the orphanage, she was still not satisfied this time it seemed that she had to go after a new body since the old one that she swallowed was not working anymore.
It was such a shame though, they worked so hard to get Li Wenyi's body and ended up failing at the most crucial moment!
Ning Yu and Fu Yu Shen had no idea what was going on upstairs, they walked to the living room where Old Master Fu said some words and then look his leave, he subtly warned Old Master Chen not to be too greedy or else he will lose out more than he could gain. As for everything else, he will leave it to the husband and wife as to what they wanted to do, after all, if there was a man who was looking for death, he could only save him once.
Old Madam Chen of course understood what Old Master Fu was trying to say to them, as soon as the the group of three people left, she turned to look at her husband unhappily and then said, " Don't tell me that you are going to leave this matter alone after listening to him? You promised me that this time you will give it all to get our daughter what she wants! Old Chen, you better not change your mind!"
Old Master Chen glanced at his wife who was scolding him and indifferently said, " I know, you do not have to tell anything. I know what I am doing, you have seen that Old Master Fu is being a bit reluctant at the moment which is why we need to let this matter brew a little more. As long as the people around the military district start mentioning that the Fu family is being ungrateful, I am sure that it will not take long for Old Master Fu to take a step down and it is not like we are asking him to set our daughter up with the young master of Ning family, we only need him to introduce Little Xi to him, I am sure they will agree to this suggestion sooner or later."
Seeing that her husband had thought it through, Old Madam Chen heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, she too did not want to let go of this opportunity to find a good family for her daughter.
Old Master Fu did not know that his friend's heart had already gone through several changes because of his greed. He just returned to his home when he suddenly met with researcher Cui who was standing outside his house with a bouquet and a bottle of wine that seemed to be dated around the early nineties.
He had a lukewarm relationship with Researcher Cui who was the boss of his grandson, he was grateful that Researcher Cui saw through the skills of his grandson but at the same time he was a bit upset with him as well because he had seen Researcher Cui ignoring the actions of his nephew, he heard from Fu Yu Sheng that his granddaughter in law had offended the niece of Researcher Cui and he was well aware of the matter that went down in the quarantine building which was why he did not even wish to talk with Researcher Cui but seeing that man was standing in his path he could not just ignore him.
" Researcher Cui, what are you doing here?" Old Master Fu asked politely in a manner that was neither hot nor cold while looking at Researcher Cui with eyes that were as chilled as ice.
Researcher Cui smiled ruefully, he knew that this was going to happen after all he knew that Old Master Fu was very unhappy with him regarding the feud between Fu Shu Chang and Cui Deming but what was he supposed to do? One was his nephew while the other was his student, even if he wanted to be unbiased sometimes he could not stop himself, since he promised his late brother that he will take care of his son well.
But given the situation, Researcher Cui could only lower his head in front of Old Master Chen and asked solicitously, " Old Master Fu if you are free then can I invite myself for a drink with you?"
Old Master Fu was very surprised by the enthusiastic attitude of Researcher Cui, he was so stunned that he did not even know what to say, when Researcher Cui saw that Old Master Fu was not speaking, he immediately went ahead and said, " Old master Fu if you do not like it then we can also go to my house. I will also invite Old Master Yan, the three of us can drink and chat about what the happening in the military district, what do you think?"
Old Master Fu wanted to say that he did not think anything about this offer but when he saw that Researcher Cui was being way polite, he could only agree.
