Chapter 733 Fat Chance
Old Master Yan, Yan Guo, Yan Niu, Commander Chen and Commissioner Lin: "..." we can see your eyes lids twitching!
Even Song Yan knew that the woman was pretending to be unconscious after all, how was it possible for anyone to faint at such a correct time? It would be too much of a coincidence! Song Yan however was not reconciled upon seeing Cui Li Ling act as if she has fainted from getting too angry.
But just as she was about to wake Cui Li Ling up, Madam Cui immediately turned to the guards who were standing on the side and said, " Take Miss Cui to the house." Even though Cui Li Ling was too arrogant, she was still her niece, she could not just leave her alone and had to save her some face.
How could Song Yan not know that Madam Cui was trying to save her niece some face? She raised a brow and glanced at Madam Cui who turned her face away. She knew that Cui Li Ling and her were in the wrong but what was she supposed to do? It was not as if she would be able to turn a blind eye to her niece's predicament right?
Of course, at the same time, Madam Cui hoped that her niece would learn a lesson from this matter and stay away from the Fu family, it seemed to her that not everyone in that family was as simple as Fu Shu Chang who did not say anything even when his work credit was being stolen and more importantly right now Song Yan was the only one who can help Cui Deming whose condition was worse than the three medical examiners!
Afraid that Song Yan will bear the grudge that she had against them for a long time and will refuse to help Cui Deming, Madam Cui changed her expression and immediately said with a tactful smile on her face, " Second Madam Fu, I hope that you will forgive my stupid niece, I definitely won't interfere with the matter between the two of you in case she wrongs you in the future but this is her first time, can you please forgive her?"
She then bowed her head and then stated with a firm attitude as she started to apologise, " Madam Fu, I will apologise on behalf of Li Ling, please do forgive her."
Song Yan was however very dissatisfied with the answer that she received from Madam Cui, she did not want to accept the apology much less agree with the suggestion that the older woman has given her. She did not care whether the woman named Cui Li Ling has fainted, in her eyes even if the woman have fainted she will be able to get the apology she wanted in one way or another. After all, a monk can run and hide but the temple cannot! Even if Cui Li Ling packs her bag and then try to get away from the military district as long as her brother was in a similar condition as the three medical examiners, she was sure that she will be able to get hold of her.
Thinking about how Cui Li Ling thought that she would be able to run away from this situation, Song Yan was rather amused. She smiled at Madam Cui and then said sensibly, " Madam Cui, you are my elder and I cannot make you lower your head in front of me. As a junior, it won't be good if I was to make my elder apologise to me, I cannot force your niece to apologise to me, after all, it's not as if I can change the flaws in her attitude. If she does not want to fulfil the bet and face the consequences of her actions then there is nothing I can do about it. I just hope that your niece and nephew will learn from this lesson and stop trying to discredit my brother-in-law."
Madam Cui understood Song Yan's stance at once, she knew that the girl was not going to forgive their family and struggled to stand up, she turned to look at her husband who was standing beside her wanting him to say something to Song Yan and have her treat their nephew.The inception of this chapter's publication is linked to n(0)vel(b)(j)(n).
But then she heard Old Man Yan say, " Yan Yan, is there any more talisman that will help to take care of these parasitic demons?" He was someone who was much experience in the matter of the military district, he knew that the Cui family wanted Song Yan to help their nephew which was why he deliberately asked Song Yan about the talismans that helped the three medical examiners.
Song Yan also knew that the Old Master Yan was helping her which was why she awkwardly smiled and then played along with the Old Master Yan as she said, " Grandpa Yan, I have just started to learn these things, I can't draw them as quickly, since my master told me that it will draw too much of my life force, I need to rejuvenate some of my life force and then try again."
She looked at the three medical examiners who were being helped by the doctors on the stretcher and then added with a conflicted expression, " I can only make these talismans every three or four days later. Did you need it for something, Grandpa Yan?" The truth was that she could make those talismans in her sleep if she wanted but she needed to see that Cui woman go on her knees and call her daddy! Only then after she was satisfied with her begging will she help the Cui family before that she will act as if she did not have enough strength since she was just a 'rich madam' who was still learning.
As soon as she finished speaking Madam Cui and Researcher Cui's expressions changed as they turned to look at each other while Old Master Yan enjoyed their panicking expression and added, "It's nothing Yan Yan, Cui Deming is also in the same condition as the three medical examiners."
Song Yan turned to look at Madam Cui and Researcher Cui with wide eyes expression and then asked with a disbelieving expression, " Then why did you not ask me to save him first?"
' Was it too late for regrets?'
Madam Cui and Researcher Cui did not believe that someone like Song Yan will be able to help them which was why they did not ask her to help Cui Deming by treating him first. They did not want to risk it which was why they kept mum but now —— after seeing Song Yan treating those three medical examiners, they were filled with regrets. If they had known that Song Yan was this capable even if they had to fight with the rest of the people in this room, they would have agreed!
Even Commander Chen and Commissioner Lin looked at the two people with sympathetic eyes but before any of them could say anything, they heard Madam Cui say, " Second Madam Fu, you said that it was your master who taught this skill to you. Can you tell me who is this master of yours? I mean Deming is in a lot of pain and I don't think he will be able to hold on for long."
Once Madam Cui finished speaking Song Yan's expression became even more conflicted as she replied, " Madam Cui, my master is the famous celestial master of the Gu family. The eldest master of the Gu family, even I as his disciple cannot see him as I wish.. if you want to meet with the Eldest Master of the Gu family you need to take an appointment months ago."
As soon as she finished speaking, not only did Madam Cui freeze even Researcher Cui was startled. After she was done speaking she turned to look at Old Master Yan who was smirking furtively while Madam Cui and her husband looked at each other with despair, Cui Deming was in such an awful condition already —— even with the ice cellar, the dead body that was sticking to his body was decaying every second, because Cui Deming was inside they could not raise the temperature too much or else he will freeze to death.
With the putrid scent and the decaying body attached to his body, Cui Deming won't be able to survive for long. Much less for months and neither Madam Cui nor Researcher Cui were fools, they knew that Song Yan was reluctant to help them because of Cui Li Ling's matter so even if they were to go to the Eldest master Gu who was Song Yan's master, there was no certainty that he will help them.
What if that expert holds a grudge against them for disrespecting his disciple?
Seeing that the two of them were like deflated balloons, Song Yan smirked and then turned to look at Old Master Yan before saying, " Shall we leave now, Grandpa Yan? I am really tired now."
" Yes, Yes, let's go," Old Master Yan nodded as he turned to leave with his sons ignoring the gazes of the Cui couple. They wanted him to help them after troubling Song Yan like that. Haha, fat chance!
