" You are right, Grandpa," Fu Yu Shen and Fu Rong echoed their grandfather. Though they haven't seen Shen Yu, they heard from Fu Yu Sheng about how Shen Yu deliberately asked the Gu sect to hold off on the invitation that they received every year for the Gu family's auction.
Even they couldn't understand why Old Master Gu was willing to make Shen Yu, the matriarch of the Gu Sect. A woman with such a rotten character deserves to be kicked out of a family instead of being given charge of that very family!
Old Master Fu couldn't help but shake his head when he thought that Gu Chenyi was in trouble because of his grandfather. However, as one aged, they would become muddleheaded not to the point that they could not even see what was right and wrong for their children.
But at the same time, he felt that he did a very good thing by choosing Song Yan as his granddaughter-in-law. Look at her even though Shen Yu made a huge fuss and even went against Song Yan, his granddaughter-in-law went ahead and helped her! She was not only benevolent but also kind!
Truly worthy of being the matriarch of the Fu family!
Old Master Fu thus couldn't help but praise Song Yan, " You did a good job, Yan Yan. Even though that Shen woman treated you so badly, you did not leave her alone in her predicament and went to help her. I have to say that the Fu family's ancestors must have done some really good deeds for our family to get you as their daughter-in-law."
Fu Yu Sheng turned to look at his wife who remained unabashed and thanked Old Master Fu for his praise.
" What are you looking at?" She asked when she saw that Fu Yu Sheng was looking at her without blinking.
" .. I am trying to find the so-called benevolence that Grandpa was speaking about," he replied. Though he loved his wife, he really couldn't bring himself to say —— Song Yan and benevolence in the same sentence together.
Song Yan arched a brow and then quietly said, " If I wasn't benevolent then you would still be sleeping on the floor just like tonight." With that, she walked inside the house and sat next to Fu Rong leaving a flustered-looking Fu Yu Sheng behind.
Him and his tongue, he should have held back a little!
While Fu Yu Sheng learned his lesson, the others did too.
Fu Yu Shen turned to look at his sister and said, " Rong'er, I think you should take a few things out of your list. As long as a man is nice and honest, you should marry him. There is no need to look for all those —— good looking, skilled in singing and dancing things to take note of."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Rong rolled her eyes and then said, " You are thinking too much. Just because a person is good-looking and skilled it doesn't mean that they are not good. Just look at Sister Wenyi and Sister Yan. They are good looking but they are highly skilled too. Even Sister Ning is good-looking and much more capable than you! Why is it that now that it's my turn I should settle with a decent man!?"
The two siblings ended up quarreling once again but no one paid attention to them.
On the other hand, while the Fu family was busy with their own thing, the talisman that was left behind by Song Yan at the Gu auction was finally sold off. And the price that it was sold at was simply too astronomical!n0velusb.c0m
Though only the high-profile families were in touch with the Gu sect, they were still quite capable. It did not take long for the talisman to be sold off and the price it fetched was simply eye-boggling.
That night when Song Yan received the money from the auction house, she could not help but be startled upon seeing the money that was sent to her bank account. She knew that her S-grade talisman was a really good thing but she did not think that someone would buy that S-grade talisman for such an extravagant price!
Song Yan did not know that the S-grade talisman was bought by a business tycoon in the S city.
Because the talisman was one of a kind, many families rushed to bid on it. Some wanted it because they knew its worth, and some simply wanted it to show off how wealthy they were.
This business tycoon who was related to the Gu Sect by marriage was in the latter half of the group.
He did not think that the talisman was a good thing and simply bought it because he wanted to show some face to his wife. After he was done with his purchase, he gave the talisman to his wife who was over the moon after getting the talisman that she could not even think of drawing ever in her life.
After purchasing the talisman, the business tycoon completely forgot about it until he received the information that his wife had been captured by kidnappers. In his rush he didn't think of anything and tried to locate his wife, only to find her in an abandoned cottage with a time bomb attached to it.
Seeing that his wife was in a life-and-death situation, the business tycoon wanted to give up everything that he had in his hands to save her but his wife stopped him from coming close to her and so did his bodyguards.
The end was certain, within minutes the bomb exploded covering the entire surrounding in nothing but dust and fire. The business tycoon felt his heart crushed upon thinking that his wife was gone but that was until he saw his wife walking out of the debris completely safe and sound!
Only then did he realise what a good thing the S-grade talisman was and immediately contacted Old Master Gu to get him another talisman!
