Song Lan was once again stumped, she was thinking about how to take Fu Rong out of the house but then this girl was actually talking about studying and staying all day at home? Was she serious? She bit her lips and stared at the wisp of golden aura around Fu Rong all thanks to the talisman that the old master has drawn for her. With this talisman tied around her wrist, she can see the fortune of anyone she came in contact with and she has been eyeing this golden aura of Fu Rong's ever since she laid eyes upon her, if not would she have bowed her head in front of this stupid girl and did everything to please her?
Golden aura only belonged to those who were either monarchs, princesses or ministers in their past lives. Their luck remained untainted throughout the number of times they reincarnate, it was hard to find such a person whose fortune was this good, only the Fu family members who were descendants of an aristocratic family, had this rich aura surrounding them and because Song Yan was fated to be with Fu Yu Sheng, she too had a golden aura around herself.
What a pity, she thought that just like Song Yan she would be able to suck Fu Rong's luck dry but this girl was even luckier than Song Yan. She actually escaped from her well-thought scheme, alas now she has to rely on Song Yan's luck alone to bag that role in Jiang Yanxi's movie.
But it's alright, she will have a lot of chances to take Fu Rong by surprise and then this golden aura will naturally come to his mommy.
Fu Rong who was stared at by Song Lan as if she was a juicy piece of meat that she had to let go, shivered all over. Song Yan was right, this woman was just as Song Yan's described her, she was actually after her luck! Fu Rong once again sent a telepathic thank you for saving her neck to Song Yan that of course, the latter didn't receive. Then she back-pedalled to create some distance between the two of them. " You- sister Lan what are you looking at?"
Song Lan who was mourning the loss of her 'luck' jerked out of her daze and smiled innocently, "it's nothing, I am just really glad that you are alright, Rong'er."
Fu Rong rolled her eyes inwardly. 'Yeah right, from the looks of it, you don't look like you are glad in fact you look rather upset seeing me alright.' Then she glanced at the greed that was practically overflowing from Song Lan's eyes and her stomach was unsettled once again, Fu Rong felt like she was going to be sick. Now she understood what her second sister in law meant by she would end up vomiting with just one look at Song Lan, this woman who treated living humans as fortune cookies was really horrible.
" I am tired, I think I will go to my room and take a bath," said Fu Rong side-stepping Song Lan, who was still staring at her with that weird longing expression.
But just as she was going to head up the stairs, butler Fan exclaimed, " This is not good!" clasping his forehead, he looked at them in horror, " The second master is coming home because I told him that miss Rong was kidnapped, now what should I do?"
Fu Rong noticed how Song Lan's face lit up like a Christmas tree at the mention of her second brother and she clenched her fists, this- this was all because of her. She was the one who invited this devil into her house and kicked her angel-like second sister in law out because of her. What should she do now? She can't let her second brother be seduced by this bitch!
She turned to look at butler Fu and spoke in a cold, dry voice, " so what? Just tell him that I have returned safe and sound, and he doesn't need to come. Even if he is here, he can always return, right? His business is more important than this incident."
" No!" Song Lan's sudden scream startled everyone. When she noticed that everyone was looking at her, she gently bit her lip and spoke in a somewhat vague manner, " Rong'er your second brother is returning to the country after so long, let him come over and stay for a while. Even though you are alright, your brother must have been really scared for your safety, look he even left all his work behind and came for you, he didn't even do that for sister Yan."
Fu Yu Shen snorted at the mention of Song Yan. " Of course, he is. Who is Rong'er and who is that woman to us? The difference between the two of them is like heaven and earth. Why will my second brother even bother with that woman?"
Song Lan was incredibly pleased by what Fu Yu Shen said about Song Yan but she still put on an admonishing expression and chided Fu Yu Shen, " Shen, don't talk about my sister like that!"
" You are just too kind, Sister Lan. She snatched what belonged to you, but you still treat her so magnanimously." scoffed Fu Yu Shen then his face lit up as if he thought of a brilliant idea, " Sister Lan why don't you stay here and have breakfast with us? Second brother will arrive by then, anyway it's already morning and that woman is not at the house either"
This was exactly what Song Lan has been waiting for, she opened her mouth to shyly refuse because she knew that Fu Yu Shen was going to insist anyway, after refusing a few times, she will accept his invitation but just as she opened her mouth, Fu Rong who was standing on the foot of the stairs spoke up before she could, " Shen ge, don't say that. The only reason, Sheng Ge didn't come to see Siste- Song Yan was because we didn't tell him, if we did then he would have definitely come." She gave the disgruntled and shocked Song Yan a bored sideways look and added deliberately, " since she is the mother of his son and his wife. And if sister Lan stays at our home while Song Yan is not here then rumours will arise and they won't be good for Sister Lan or our family. Do you want our second brother to be called a philanderer? Who cheated on his wife?"
This was the first time, Fu Rong has said something like this to him thus, Fu Yu Shen was so shocked that his mouth was left agape." Rong'er you-"
" Looks like at least one of you grew smart while I was away."

" Brother Sheng!" Before anyone could react to Fu Yu Sheng's appearance, Song Lan was already on her way to stand beside him, and why wouldn't she? That was the place that originally belonged to her. If not for Song Yan who was born in the Song family with that golden aura for luck, she would be the one who would have married Fu Yu Sheng, both of them was the daughters of the Song family yet she was born with nothing yet Song Yan was born with everything. But there was no need for her to rush, as long as she continued at the pace she was going, one day everything will belong to her!
When these thoughts flooded her mind, Song Lan's smile became even wider. She wanted to rush up and sidle to Fu Yu Sheng's side but then she remembered that Fu Yu Sheng liked girls who were gentle and elegant so she slowed her pace and walked toward him in an extremely patient manner. What she didn't know was that without even thinking she was unconsciously acting like Song Yan whom she hated very much, when she was standing close enough to Fu Yu Sheng, Song Lan gave him her best smile that was praised by the nation for being pretty, " Brother Sheng you must be tired, here let me take that."
She reached her hand to take the jacket that Fu Yu Sheng was carrying in his arm but before she could so much as touch even a strand of the fabric, Fu Yu Sheng pulled his arm away with a frown, handing his jacket to butler Fan who has very wisely came to stand between Song Lan and Fu Yu Sheng. Though butler Fan trusted his young master and knew that he will never fall for the tricks of such a woman but what he didn't trust was this woman! She was always buzzing around his second master like a bee, even though she was a young heiress her attitude was very much similar to those children born out of mistresses. Putui! Only blind people would like such a terrible woman who tried to ruin a well family settled family and that too when it belonged to her sister- half-sister or not a sister was, in the end, a sister!
Fu Yu Sheng stared at Song Lan who went red in the face, aiya! What was this? Did brother Sheng finally realise that she was the prettier one here? If so then she -
" Butler Fan, did you hire a new maid?" asked Fu Yu Sheng with a frown as he looked away from Song Lan without so much as giving her another glance, " did she not receive proper training at the institute? If so why are you keeping her here? Fire her, right away."
Fu Yu Sheng was known for his impatience, he firmly rejected outsiders and rarely had any contact with anyone who wasn't important in his life. Except for his family, Fu Yu Sheng has never paid any attention to anyone else and he wasn't even interested in expanding his world beyond the people he cared about but with those people, he will be really considerate as much as his emotional capability would allow him to, and from his indifference, towards Song Lan, it was clear that she held no importance whatsoever to him and since she wasn't important why will he concern himself to remember her?'
Butler Fan almost choked and had to feign his laughter as cough, see? Didn't he say that only blind people would like this woman? And since his second young master wasn't blind, he will definitely not care about her! Hah! In your face mistress wannabe!
Though he was laughing at Song Lan's predicament inwardly, he still cleared his throat and answered his second master diligently, " No, second master. This is miss Song," hon Fu Yu Sheng continued to frown, Butler Fan silkily added, " Madam Song's half-sister Miss Song Lan."
See this? To my second master, you are no one, if not for madam Song he wouldn't even remember you but you still have the audacity to dig in madam Song's corner? How shameless, tsk, tsk.
Song Lan had once lived under the tag of mistress's daughter and she was exceptionally wise in understanding the subtle put down like Butler Fan's, she knew he was contemptuous of her because she was trying to seduce her half sister's husband. But so what if this old man was holding her in contempt? Her mother was once held in contempt too but now look where she was, humph, she will definitely take good care of this old man once she became the madam of the Fu family.
But for now, she just withdrew her anger and suppressed the rage that was pumping in her body and made herself look more pitiful than ever. It wasn't hard, Song Lan just have to secretly rub the ' sickly beauty talisman' she carried around with her and that was it - all of a sudden, all the blood on her face drained and she looked so pale that it looked like she was going to faint any second. This was the talisman that she had made the master draw after spending a lot of money, if not she would have never been praised for her amazing acting.
She blinked the tears that were brimming in her eyes as a reaction because of the talisman and then looked at Fu Yu Sheng, her act was good. Even Fu Yu Shen who always tried to bring his second brother and Song Lan together felt a pang of sympathy for her, he licked his lips and looked at his second brother who was striding towards Fu Rong without so much as looking at the 'pitiful' Song Lan and hurriedly said, " Sister Lan, it's not that second brother doesn't remember you. It's just that he suffers from face blindness, he hasn't seen you for a long time that is why he can't remember you-"
Right at this moment, Fu Yu Sheng swept his eyes around the living room and scowled. " Where is Yanyan?"
Who doesn't remember you because he hasn't seen you for a long time? The truth was that he couldn't care less about this pest called Song Lan.
