Fu Xin Chen had not expected such a thing to happen, he looked at his sister in disbelief. He wanted to say something but he couldn't get a chance as he fell through the mirror and then with a bang landed on a hard surface.
" Oww," he winced as he looked at the gloomy sky which was filled with dark clouds and mist. His dark eyes looked around before they fell on Fu Yu Shen and Old Master Fu who were huddled in a corner with an old piece of cloth covering their bodies. The two of them looked at him before turning to look at each other.
" I thought it will be Ah Rong," said Fu Yu Shen.
" I thought the same too," agreed Old Master Shen as he turned to look at Fu Xin Chen and remarked, " Your sister is quite cruel, isn't she, Xin Chen?"
A blush of embarrassment coated Fu Xin Chen's face as he did not know what to say. He was Fu Qingyuan's brother but for the sake of living a rich and comfortable life, she did not hesitate to push him inside the mirror and into this place where any human life would slowly wane away if they were to stay inside for more than a week.
Since their lives relied on Fu Qingyuan who was acting as the medium, Fu Xin Chen knew that he along with Fu Yu Shen and Old Master Fu were in grave danger.
" Did Yan Yan send you here?" Old Master Fu asked as he glanced at Fu Xin Chen, he felt sorry for this grand-nephew of his as he was born into the wrong family. Though he was smart and witty because of a family like that he was always suppressed by Fu Yu Sheng as they were worried that Fu Yi Shen would get on top their heads if Fu Xin Chen was to get a more powerful position. If he was born in any other branch, Fu Xin Chen could have lived a far better life than he was living at the moment.
Fu Xin Chen nodded heavily and replied to Old Master Fu, "Sister-in-law asked me to take a look at this mirror," he then took out a small orb which was silvery grey with a beautiful shimmer within it. " She told me to hold on to this orb no matter what and if something goes wrong, she will come looking for us. I am sure that she will be arriving pretty soon."
Only then did Fu Yu Shen and Old Master Fu heaved a sigh of relief, even though they were safe who would like to live in a space which smelled of rotten flesh with horrible things roaming around them? They were attacked more than twenty times and it was all thanks to the S-grade talisman that they were carrying that they were still alive but even so how long this talisman can even work? They have to get out of this place as soon as possible!
Now they just hoped that Song Yan would come looking for them quickly.
….
" She is ruthless," Song Yan muttered as soon as the inscription around Fu Xin Chen's name turned black and moulted before turning to look at Fu Yu Sheng and saying, " She really pushed Xin Chen inside the mirror."
Song Yan was only speculating but Fu Qingyuan was much more desperate than she thought. Without even thinking about the consequences for the sake of saving her own skin, Fu Qingyuan pushed her brother inside the mirror which could even kill him! She was truly vicious!
Fu Yu Sheng looked at the dark inscriptions and his face turned green.
" We can't keep them anymore," though he was willing to give some face to the third branch because they were his elders and family members but now that he had seen just how brutal, the third branch can be he did not wish to keep them anymore. One who could harm their own family, they can harm them as well.
" Whats now?" He asked after a short pause as Song Yan stood up from the couch. " What are we going to do now?"
" We are going to follow her what else?" Song Yan walked towards the door as she headed towards the parking lot. " Fu Qingyuan will try to place the mirror at some other place now that she had been caught. Most probably she will try to push either Fu Rong or Fu Shu Chang …so just find out where the two of them are."
Because she knew the culprit behind the disappearance of her family members, Song Yan allowed them to leave the house without any worries as she could trace them back now.
Fu Yu Sheng did as she told him and found out where Fu Shu Chang and Fu Rong were, the two of them were having a meal at the diner next to their corporation building. The two of them went to look for the surveillance camera footage of the park but did not find anything, after looking around for a few more hours, they went to have a meal where Fu Yu Sheng called them.
"Let's go to the diner then," Song Yan spoke to Fu Yu Sheng as she slid inside the car and then waited for Fu Yu Sheng to start driving. As the two of them drove past the manors which were situated in the same location as their own, Song Yan's gaze fell on a woman who was standing outside the Su manor with Yang Yiling standing in front of the said woman, she arched a brow before her lips curled in a smile.
" What are you looking at? Did you see something funny?" Fu Yu Sheng asked when he saw Song Yan smiling. He wanted to follow her gaze but he had long driven past the house which now belonged to Yang Yiling and her son.
Song Yan shook her head and then said, " Nothing interesting. I just remembered something that made me smile."
