Chapter 755 How Close ——2



" All right, I am glad that you are so loyal," Song Yan praised him casually before she closed her phone and continued, "Any way you might have not seen it just now but when I got close to that woman Chen Xi just now she smelled of rotten human flesh and her jawline was sharper than the last time." 

" The corpse…." Fu Yu Sheng's murmured with his eyes widening slowly just as Song Yan nodded and said, " The first time I ran into Chen Chu Chu, the latter also smelled the same and she looked completely different than usual, though everyone says that she went under the knife, I think its bullshit. That woman nowhere has the signs where one can say that she went another the knife, the same could be said for Chen Xi." 

Without waiting for Fu Yu Sheng to speak, Song Yan then further went ahead and said, " And it's too much of a coincidence that we found the body today and Chen Xi was attacked as well this morning, it's like some deliberate ploy to divert the attention from the thing that happened last night. Why did Chen Xi just happen to be attacked today and why did we find the corpse? How come her jawline was sharper than usual when the woman's corpse was missing her jaw? And I don't think that those sisters are doing this just for beauty, it is like a plus one … because  other than the physical features of a corpse even the insides are gone every time they are found … I am afraid that these two are hiding something really grave…not to mention there is a blood tree hiding in the forest afar from here." 

" Blood tree?" Fu Yu Sheng's eyes widened as he looked at his wife and asked, " What in the world is that?" 

Song Yan narrowed her eyes and then looked down at her hands which were resting on her lap. "It's a tree that is raised by demons, irrigated by the blood and souls of humans, it's said that the souls that were reaped for the irrigation of this tree can never reincarnate. The blood tree only gives a single fruit every year after the consumption of three thousand and one souls of humans…. And the fruit that it bears ——I don't know much about it but I read that the tree swallows everything evil and dirty inside the souls that it harvests, once it bears the fruit… you can say it's a poison that can not only kill a human but also replace the soul of that human with something much more demonic and evil." 

As she finished her explanation Fu Yu Sheng's eyes flashed with worry, he asked whether Song Yan could deal with the tree but the latter shook her head and said, " Only when the demons who planted it die will that tree be killed, if I try to uproot it… I am afraid I will unleash the very evil that it sucked from the soul that it reaped." 

Just as Fu Yu Sheng was going to ask about whether the tree had something to do with the Chen sisters, the door was pushed open and Old Madam Yan returned with her second son and daughter-in-law, her face lined with worry and concern. She did not even place the groceries that she was carrying and then said to Fu Yu Sheng, " I heard what happened Yu Sheng, I don't care whether that woman called Chen Xi is all right or not but you need to keep your brother away from her. I am your grandma and I will not tell you anything that will cause you to suffer. That Chen Chu Chu and her sister are not ordinary women. She is very scheming even more so than her sister, if anything she might be the one who orchestrated this entire thing!" 

When Yan Niu heard his mother's words, his lips twitched, in fact, he believed this as well but everyone said that Chen Xi was burning with fever and she succeeded in an important audition but will now miss the shooting with what happened to her now, which caused him to throw his suspicions away and what kind of person will deliberately throw themselves in harm's way?

He said the same thing to his mother who snorted and coldly said, " Of course the one who is ruthless to herself for the sake of the gains of the future, you think that selfish girl who snatched your candied apples and made you the thief instead would give up her life for anyone? Fat chance!" 

" But she has saved Yu Shen's life, Mom. No matter what the case we will have to show a better attitude towards her now … you can not just snort at her every time you see her, from now on." 

" Says who? I will snort at whoever I want and you are no one to stop me, do not forget that I am your mother, you are not my father," Old Madam Yan was really furious, she never liked Chen Chu Chu but she hated the younger one more. At least Chen Chu Chu was aware of how to act but the younger one was selfish and had not an ounce of character!

Did her boys think that she did not know just how many boy toys that Chen Xi woman had in the military district? She dressed in such short clothes as if she was still eighteen and fluttered here and there passing smiles to men almost all over! 

How can such a woman be a good person? She continued to scold Yan Niu and even dragged Fu Yu Sheng and only stopped when the two men swore that they will not say a word in support of the two Chen sisters. 

While they were talking about this, Song Dong Ming arrived in the living room and then glanced at Fu Yu Sheng whose expression collapsed the second he realised that he was going to be driven out of the residence once again but then he heard his father in law say, " Yan Yan, you can go and stay with the Fu family tonight..after what happened today, I am not at ease leaving them alone."

Fu Yu Sheng's face changed drastically as he turned to look at his wife, his eyes shining with glee. Was this …was this the approval that he was waiting for but before he could even smile he heard his father-in-law say, " Take your brother and sister-in-law with you, you can sleep with your sister-in-law while Yu Sheng can sleep with your husband … no matter what this is just temporary arrangement."
