Fu Qingyuan was incredulous, stunned and bewildered. She did not expect Song Yan to suddenly appear out of nowhere and even catch her in the act.
" Qingyuan, what is going on?" Huo Huan turned to look at Fu Qingyuan. From the looks of it this woman did not look like she was easy to deal with, she cast a blaming look at Fu Qingyuan and then said, " You said that no one will find out anything."
At first, Fu Qingyuan was stunned but then she snapped back to her senses and calmed down, " Don't worry, she is my sister-in-law and I know that she is a hopeless case. Even if she somehow managed to learn a few tricks, I am afraid that she is not any good——"
" Is that so?" Song Yan tapped the floor with the tip of her foot and appeared close to Fu Qingyuan. " I am afraid that you never knew me well enough to say those words so confidently, Fu Qingyuan."
Stunned, Fu Qingyuan took a step back but she was stopped by Song Yan whose face was cold. With a wave of her hand, Song Yan summoned cold flames and tied Fu Qingyuan to the same spot where she was standing before turning to look at Huo Huan. The woman was quaking behind her and looked like she was on the verge of falling unconscious.
If Huo Huan had known that Fu Qingyuan had such a terrifying sister-in-law, she would not have agreed to help her. She only agreed because Fu Qingyuan said that she was going to let her debt go once everything was over, though the debt that she owed to Fu Qingyuan was only a few hundred thousand yuan, it was a big sum for her family!
In the end, Huo Huan had no other choice but to agree with Fu Qingyuan but now her face was green with regret.
She did not even have the courage to look Song Yan in the eye, she could only turn on her heels and then run towards the other end of the corridor but who knew what kind of mist was filling up the small space, the second she turned to run past the mist, Huo Huan found herself standing in the same spot from where she tried to run.
" Song Yan! Let me go!" Fu Qingyuan's face was crumpled with pain, even though the flames were not burning her skin. The cold was biting into her skin like several knives running against her skin, she turned to look at Song Yan who stood like a grim reaper and howled, " You cannot kill me."
On the other hand, Huo Huan was already scared out of her wits and her forehead was dripping with cold swear when she heard Fu Qingyuan roar at Song Yan, she was so angry that she snapped at Fu Qingyuan, " Are you stupid, Fu Qingyuan? Can you not see what kind of situation you are in at the moment?"
She then turned to look at Song Yan.
The woman was standing calmly in the middle of the corridor as if she was detached from everything that was happening around her. Seeing her cold expression, Huo Huan was shivering with panic as she clasped her hands and then bowed apologetically, " I … I am sorry, I did not wish to do this either but Fu Qingyuan forced me to do this. She said that if I did not do it then she will sell me to those shady places and I had no choice!"
" Huo Huan!" Fu Qingyuan yelled at the woman who was quick to turn her back on her but Huo Huan did not pay attention to Fu Qingyuan, instead she sucked in a breath and then continued speaking, " I did not wish to do this… she was the one who asked me… please spare me. I promise that I will not dare to do it again."
As Huo Huan spoke, she fell to her knees and then kowtowed on the ground with tears running down her cheeks along with snot. " I am the only daughter of my parents if something happens to me, what will happen to them? Please be magnanimous."
After Huo Huan kowtowed she stood up thinking that Song Yan would let her go but when she saw that Song Yan was still standing motionless while smiling at her with that sneering look in her eyes, she quickly turned to look at Fu Qingyuan and shouted anxiously, " Qingyuan, what are you doing? Just tell your sister-in-law how to bring those people back and apologise to her. She is your family, she will surely forgive you."
When Fu Qingyuan heard Huo Huan's words, her eyes lit up.
Although she was scared, she felt utterly humiliated and uncomfortable with the idea of apologizing to someone like Song Yan whom she had looked down on for ages. But when she heard Huo Huan's words, hope ignited in her eyes as she turned to look at Song Yan.
Fu Qingyuan did not know how she worked up the courage to look at Song Yan in the eyes but she still raised her head and then said in a calm voice, " Song Yan, don't forget who I am. I am your sister-in-law, the daughter of your husband's uncle and one of the members of the Fu family. You cannot touch me, it will be better for you to let me go and not make a fuss.." her eyes flickered and then Fu Qingyuan added, " If you promise me that you will not come after my family then I will give you the medium to bring your family back."
Huo Huan's eyes also lit up when she heard Fu Qingyuan 's confident tone. From the looks of it, Fu Qingyuan and her family had some serious weight in the Fu family! Maybe she will get out of this place alive!
She then turned to look at Song Yan hoping to see her panic but instead, she saw the woman smile.
