" She is here master," when Song Lan received the call from the thugs who have successfully kidnapped Song Yan, she was so happy that she wanted to fly, finally. Finally, she will completely replace that bitch and live her life as the madam of the Fu family, no one will call her the illegitimate daughter of the Song family and more importantly.. she placed her hand on her womb and smiled sinisterly, she will give birth to the heir of the Fu family after taking care of that bastard Fu Chen.

This was just right, everything will go back as it was supposed to be, she will get her luck that has been taken away by Song Yan back and as for that bitch who took her luck away.. she will be locked up in a shed and left to bleed for her!

Humph! If it was left to her, she would have gotten Song Yan killed but because the latter was still of some use to her, she would spare her life. Song Yan better be grateful for her grace, after all, she was willing to let her stay alive.

" Excellent, Excellent," said the old master as he placed his cauldron on the burning fire and then picked up the human skin that he has skinned earlier this morning. It was still bright red and drops of blood seem to drip from it as the old master picked up a peach wood sword and then wrote a spell on it, after he was finished writing the spell of dark arts on the sword, he picked up the bone of the human whose skin has been peeled and threw it in the cauldron, no sooner did he threw it inside, the cauldron bubbled and frothed before hissing like a myriad of serpents.

He then picked up the heart of the man whose skin was taken and then picked up his dagger, he carefully sliced the thumping heart into pieces before he threw it into the bubbling cauldron. The greenish liquid turned blackish red like tar with a hint of wine in it and only then did he nod and scooped up the concoction in a ladle as he said, " Now it only needs the blood of that woman, as long as her blood is added into this concoction we just needed to pour the liquid on the skin and the human skin mask will be ready."

When Song Lan heard that everything was ready, she hurriedly called the thugs to bring Song Yan up. The thugs who seemed to be waiting for her orders soon came inside the abandoned hall dragging a limp body with them.

" Is she knocked out?" Song Lan asked carefully but one could see that she was really excited as she looked at Song Yan's beautiful face, her greedy gaze was so ferocious that even the two thugs who were not the target of her gaze shivered.

" She is completely unconscious," the man with chains nodded and then laid Song Yan down on the floor. " We used a heavy knockout drug, she wouldn't wake up till the morning."

" That's great! You two can leave now, I will send the payment to you in a while." As she spoke Song Lan tried to get close to Song Yan but she was stopped by the man with chains he raised his hand and said, " Not so fcking fast woman, you pay the money first and only then we will hand you the delivery."

He pointed to his brother whose face was black and blue and then stated calmly, " The woman knew self-defence and you didn't tell us, of course, you will have to pay for the damages, add in a million for that and .." then he pointed to his leg that seemed to be bitten by a dog and swiftly added, " Another one for this one as well, it's because of you that we were hurt like this, so round up the payment to fifteen million or we are taking her back."

Song Lan's face turned red with anger as she narrowed her eyes and hissed sharply at the two men, " Do you know I am with? If I want I can get you two killed!"

" You better not miss, we are used to working in this business," said the man with a bad eye as he shrugged his shoulders. " We know people like you and we have dealt with them as well, right now a system in our laptop is carefully tracking the seconds, if we don't go down in the next fifteen minutes and enter the code that needs to stop the countdown then your voice recordings, the messages and everything that you have said will be uploaded to the internet," the man smirked when he saw that Song Lan's face has gone pale and added snickering, " I found out that you are an actress and this woman is the second madam of the Fu family, bet the Fu family would not like what you did to her and .."

He tipped his head to the frothing cauldron and raised his brow. " Whatever you are planning will go down the drain as well."

" Fine!" Song Lan sensed that she has been caught in a trap in the end she paid the money that the thugs were asking but not before cursing them. " Here you go, your darned money. Now get lost and never show me your face ever again! If I see you again then I will skin you alive!"

" Like we want to see you,"

"It's better that way, who wants to see your face either? Unlike this beauty here you are like an old hag, seeing your face puts me into a bad mood altogether."

The two thugs weren't easy to deal with either they cursed right back at Song Lan making her so mad that her face turned as colourful as a palette.

She wanted to go ahead and scratch their faces but then she thought about the recording and the messages that they had in their hands and controlled herself, she couldn't let them tarnish her reputation or plan, if that happened then everything she did would be futile.This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.
