Chapter 70 Interrogation Time.

Song Lan's entire complexion turned pale as she turned to look at her mother who was standing beside her with a frown. Her expression no better than hers, fixing the shawl over her shoulders, Chu Lian turned to look at her. " Didn't I say that Li Rou is a special pawn that you need to properly take care of? That woman was born with good luck and her prospects were nice as well, as long as she was with you, you will be able to reach the top of the entertainment industry in no time. Why is it, that she was sent to the hospital with such serious injuries?"

Chu Lian was really upset with how brainless her daughter was, even though she loved Song Lan a lot. She couldn't help but be disappointed in her when she was young—— she wasn't pretty and her future prospects weren't good either but she was patient and took every step that she needed to very carefully, only with her sheer willpower and patience was she able to rise from the ashes and become a rich madam from a song actress. But compared to her, her daughter was simply too much of a fool, she wasn't smart and she didn't have her patience either. Look at what she did now, Li Rou could have proven so much more useful to them but she went ahead and destroyed this valuable chess piece, just thinking about how long she has wasted her time on cultivating Li Rou was enough to make her heart quiver with pain.

Brainwashing her, paying that old master another ten million for puppetry talisman as well as taking care of those actresses who could have proven troublesome to her daughter in the future. All that money came from her savings and now everything went down the dump all because of her daughter who was too impatient!

Song Lan was still recovering from the shock that she just received when she heard her mother's accusatory tone. She shivered with anger and injustice as she rounded on her mother and shouted, " What do you mean by saying this to me? Do you think I was the one who did something wrong? In case you are wondering about this, I will let you know that I was very careful. I sent Li Rou to do exactly what she has always done, she was supposed to drag Song Yan, that bitch to Liao Jiming's bed and be done with it. Who would have known that something like this would happen—— haven't we done something like this always?"

She still couldn't understand how something so simple went so terribly wrong. Though she wasn't upset about Li Rou's accident, instead she was worried about the losses she has to suffer now because of this, Li Rou was under their control thanks to the puppetry talisman, and the old master told her that it was really difficult to draw a puppetry talisman with his skills, so they need to properly take care of Li Rou until he can draw another.

Chu Lian pursed her lips, she was really upset about the development of the things, if she wasn't wrong then Song Yan should have fallen into the trap that her daughter made for her but if she hasn't—— her eyes coldly glittered as she hatefully spat out the words that were in her head. " She broke the array."

Song Lan's face turned stinky as she snapped her head and looked at her mother in disbelief. " That's impossible."

" And why do you think it's impossible?" asked Chu Lian who picked up the remote of the television and switched it off before turning around and striding towards the cushioned sofa and sat down. " With her luck, she should have fallen into your plan but she didn't instead it was Li Rou," with her eyes flickering grimly, Chu Lian continued, " And Li Rou's luck was supposed to be better than hers, how can that bitch escape scout free and it was Li Rou who got entangled in trouble?"

Song Lan grabbed her hair disbelievingly and made a quick turn on the spot before she shook her head and stopped to look at her mother. Teeth tightly clenched—— she cursed, " This is impossible, there is no way she would be able to find out that we did something like that to her and even if she did how can she find where we have hidden the array? With Master's skills, it's impossible for anyone to track the position of the array."

There were two reasons why Song Lan was refusing to believe that Song Yan was able to break the array: Firstly, the luck that she was enjoying would be snatched back and she would lose everything that she has gained and secondly if the array was broken then wouldn't it mean that Song Yan has a powerful master by her side. The one that was better than the master she and her mother has? How was she supposed to swallow this down?

Chu Lian was upset as well but she was a lot more sensible compared to Song Lan, though her face was livid at the possibility of that Huo Li's daughter making a turnaround in her life, she knew that now that the girl had someone by her side she could no longer carelessly approach Song Yan. " This is the only possibility, I know you hate it but there is nothing else we can do—— you might as well look for someone else whose luck is better than yours, if not all your success will go down the drain."

" But—"

" No buts!" snapped Chu Lian as she waved her hand. " You need to come to an understanding with the reality, that girl has a powerful master by her side what are you going to do if she retaliates against you? We don't know the strength of this spirit master, you better play safe and be patient, or else you and I will suffer greatly."

With that she stood up and walked away, leaving a highly incensed Song Lan behind who picked up the antique vase on the table and threw it on the floor, pieces of broken glass scattered all over the floor.

Patience. Patience. Patience!

She has been holding on to her patience ever since she was a child, if not then it would have been her who married Fu Yu Sheng and not that Song Yan! How long does she have to be patient? If this goes on there might be another brat popping out of Song Yan's womb!

" Achoo!" Song Yan who was watching a television show with Fu Chen about funny animals that were caught by their trainers sneezed loudly startling everyone in the living room.

Fu Chen, who was so engrossed in the fight, immediately turned to look at his mother and asked worriedly, " Mommy, are you sick? Should I bring you a blanket?"

" That's right Yan Yan, if you are sick, tell brother. I will go and bring the medicine for the cold for you." Then Song Lingyan turned to Wen Mingzhi and asked, " Do you know how to brew chicken soup pf something?"

Wen Mingzhi shook her head since neither of them had gotten sick yet she hadn't learned about how to brew a soup.

Song Lingyan panicked, what a shame, his sister was sick and he knew that ever since Song Yan was a child she loved drinking chicken soup. Now, they were in a situation where they can only buy the cheapest chicken meat and even if they could buy it —— who was going to cook it?

He was waiting for Fu Chen to sleep so that he could question Song Yan about Li Rou who would have known that she would suddenly start sneezing.

Seeing the panicked expressions of her family members, Song Yan felt honey-like warmth spreading inside her. She patted Fu Chen's little head and smilingly coaxed her son, " I am fine, you don't need to worry about it."

Song Lingyan snorted. " This is why you always got sick when you were little. Never caring about your health at all."

" Mommy, if you are sick why don't you eat medicine? Don't worry, even though it's bitter, Chen Chen will give you his star candy," said Fu Chen, he thought that just like him his mother was afraid of drinking bitter medicine thus, he kindly suggested sharing his candies with her.

Song Yan was amused does she looks like a child who can't drink her medicine? But for the sake of her son who was worrying about her, she obediently drank the medicine for her cold even though she wasn't sick. Once she finished drinking the medicine she turned to look at her son and asked, " Happy now?"

Fu Chen shyly nodded and then took the bottle of medicine and trotted away before putting it securely in the cabinet. Then just as he was returning to his mother, his aunt picked him up and schemingly smiled. "It's time to sleep, Chen Chen."

Just as she said that Song Lingyan turned to look at Song Yan sternly.

And Song Yan understood that it was nap time for her son and interrogation time for her.
