On the other side, Madam Xi rushed to the main house of the Xi family. Because of what happened a few days ago at the banquet, no one wanted to see her but Yang Si knew that if she did not bring the celestial master whom Assistant Xi brought to their house, with her then her husband and son might die a horrible death!
Thus, she cried and sobbed with snot and tears flowing down her face as she begged her eldest sister-in-law to help her. In the end, no matter what happened, they were one family upon seeing Yang Si cry like she was on the verge of losing her life, First Madam Xi could only put her anger aside and bring Yang Si inside the house while calling Assistant Xi to co back ho.
When First Madam Xi called her son, the latter was with Fu Yu Sheng and the two of them were in a eting but upon seeing that it was a call from his mother, Assistant Xi took the call after excusing himself.
" Mom, what is the matter? I told you that I have a eting today did I not?" Though Assistant Xi did not want to bla his mother, the eting today was indeed important. Who knows maybe his attitude might beco a turning point in the entire deal because of this one call as no one knew how the temper of these rich CEOs worked.
" I know, I know…" First Madam Xi was also a bit embarrassed but seeing how anxious Yang Si was, she could only call her son. "It's like this, your aunt ca to look for the celestial master who ca with you to your second aunt's house. She ..she told
that sothing terrible has taken place."
Assistant Xi was shocked but not surprised when he heard that his second aunt ca looking for him. After all, Song Yan already told him that there was sothing wrong with that female ghost, with his fingers rubbing the space between his brows, Assistant Xi stated in a quiet yet angry voice, " Mother, I am in City H. Even if I leave now, I cannot co back to the city before three hours. This is why I told Second Aunt and Uncle Junxi to get that ghost exorcise! Now what do you want
to do?"
This was sothing First Madam Xi was also worried about, as the celestial master was none other than the wife of her son's boss. That was to say the Second Madam of the Fu family, she was not soone they could et just because they wanted to!
But even so, were they going to leave Xi Junxi and Xi Sang alone with that ghost woman? The entire matter did not sit right with her and thus First Madam Xi said in a slightly embarrassed but firm voice, " Little Feng, I know that you are angry but this concerns the life of your uncle and cousin. Why don't you ask your boss for help? I am sure that he will be willing to talk to his wife."
Assistant Xi was so angry that he wanted to curse for the first ti in his life, this was good. When he was shouting as loudly as he could and telling those idiots that there was sothing wrong with the ghost they did not listen to a word that ca out of his mouth but now all of a sudden they wanted him to play the hero out of nowhere.
A part of him wished to ignore his second uncle's family as they were nothing but fools but in the end, he still agreed with his mother's request and went inside the eting room.
Fu Yu Sheng was discussing the finer parts of the deal with his business partner when he saw Assistant Xi looking at him with so hesitation. Seeing him like this, Fu Yu Sheng raised a finger and then excused himself from the eting as well.
"What's going on?" He asked while looking at Assistant Xi who seed a bit embarrassed.
" CEO Fu, if you don't mind can you ask Lady Boss to go and take a look at my second uncle's family? It seems that the ghost has gone berserk," when Assistant Xi said those words his face was filled with embarrassnt.
It was truly too humiliating, Song Yan was embarrassed by his uncle and yet he was now shalessly asking Song Yan to help them once again.
Assistant Xi was expecting Fu Yu Sheng to refuse but surprisingly the latter nodded and then said, " Sure, wait a second."
And before Assistant Xi could even start with the rest of the pleading speech that he had prepared to speak in front of Fu Yu Sheng, the latter had already sent a ssage to Song Yan.
Maybe his shock was visible on his face because Fu Yu Sheng threw his arm around Assistant Xi's shoulders and then patted him lightly on the right shoulder. " You have worked hard as my Assistant for so long, this is the least I can do…now let us finish the eting before rushing back ho."
….
When Song Yan received Fu Yu Sheng's ssage, she was helping Fu Chen with his howork. She looked down at the ssage and then pursed her lips before rolling her eyes as she turned to her son who was reading the story of the petty rich landlord.
"What's wrong Mom?" Fu Chen asked upon seeing his mother roll her eyes.
" Nothing," Song Yan smiled at her son before raising her hand and then ruffling the hair of her son. " Have you finished reading the story? Did you understand the moral of it?"
Fu Chen nodded and then solemnly stated, " I did. The moral of the story is that if we act too arrogant then we will lose everything like the petty rich landlord, who only knew how to act smart but did not know how to work hard."
" Thats right," Song Yan smiled at Fu Chen as she praised him for being smart while thinking how good it would be if grown-ups could also understand sothing so simple.
