Chapter 402 Not Worth It

" Oh, I just thought that maybe you…" Wu Jin paused when he noticed that Song Yan's expression wasn't right, instead, he cleared his throat and then turned his head slightly to look away from her, bringing his fist to his mouth as he coughed against it. " Anyway, I am surprised to see you here, sister in law."

" Bet you aren't as surprised as me," stated Song Yan as she looked at him, she crossed her arms and skimmed her gaze carefully at his face when she noticed that Wu Jin was avoiding her gaze, her lips curled up in disdain. " Imagine my surprise when I saw a sick and frail girl murdering a bunch of people, I gave you time for you to come and tell me about what kind of demon your sister was hiding, not for you to give your sister extra time to have a decent meal."

Wu Jin's pupils quivered once he was done listening to Song Yan's words, he turned his head to look at Song Yan who was now leaning against the wall of the back of the building and asked with a hint of shock and surprise in his voice, " Genji? She is the one who is behind this? That…That's impossible, almost twenty people were killed and three to four victims are hurt, there is no way Ji Ji will do something like that …. She can not kill so many people."

" Oh, here we go," said Song Yan bitterly as she kicked herself off the wall and walked towards Wu Jin such that she was standing in front of him with a mocking smile on her face. " Let me tell you something when I asked you to bring me information about that demon, I did not mean that as long as you drag your feet, you will be able to save your sister's life, oh no," she raised her hand and poked her forefinger at Wu Jin's chest and snarled, " It meant that I am giving your family a chance to solve this matter privately, if not then I have more than thousand of ways to make your sister suffer along with your family, all right?"

She started putting pressure on her forefinger such that it was digging into  Wu Jin's chest. " If you keep on dragging your feet like you are doing right now, then I can assure you that I will make your family's life a living hell if you want to put everything on the line for a girl who is killing innocent people like this, then you can continue like this."

" I am not dragging my feet," Wu Jin didn't want to show his weakness to Song Yan, he knew that she was right and that if something was really wrong with Wu Genji then she ought to be punished for her actions but thing was, he couldn't summon his courage nor will to see his sister die. Of course, he understood that what she was doing was wrong…no it was inhuman but …. He bit his lip and then raised his head to look at Song Yan. " You said you can't do anything without me telling you what kind of demon Genji is hiding ."

" You really think so?" sneered Song Yan as she raised her hand and grabbed Wu Jin by his collar before raising him in the air, long enough to choke him. " I can do a lot of things, sweetie, if you think that you can stop me from getting my hands on your sister you are damn wrong, I will get my hands on her." She has to get her hands on Wu Genji because only then she will be able to save her father.

Letting go of her grip when she noticed that Wu Jin was choking, she watched him fall to the floor. Song Yan waited until he was done breathing enough air and only then did she lean down and looked him in the eye. " Three days, that's all you are getting, if you don't come with the information that I want then I will come for your sister whether you like it or not and believe me once the news that the spoiled little princess of the Wu family was behind all these killings gets out, your family will have a field trip to hell and back."

Only then did she straighten up and turned around to walk away. However, she didn't even take three steps forward when she heard Wu Jin's voice again, " Are you threatening me?"

She paused before turning her head around and looking at Wu Jin with a chilling smile. " No, I am warning you, be a good boy and make a wise choice or else…" she did not finish what she was saying instead she turned around and left leaving Wu Jin alone.

Wu Jin watched Song Yan leave, his fingernails dug into his skin as he stared at her vanishing back, he knew that she was angry because of this incident. He was furious as well too but even though his mind was willing to put an end to all of this, his heart couldn't let go, he didn't want to see his sister die.

"It's easy for you to say!" He shouted at Song Yan's back, his anger getting the best of him. He lost his nephew and now he was going to lose his sister as well, it was easier for Song Yan to tell him to let go, after all, she has never lost anyone!

" Damn!" He cursed as he punched the concrete floor hard enough to draw blood, before crouching on his fours and letting out a frustrated and anguished cry. " Why Genji? Why did you have to do it?"

Song Yan, of course, heard Wu Jin's cries but she didn't stop to calm him down, was she wrong in doing something like this? Maybe so, she has lost enough people much closer than Wu Jin to know how he was feeling but she also knew how important it was for him to let go of the ties that were nothing but barbed wires, after all, was saving Wu Genji worth more than all the innocent lives that she ruined?
