Mother Wu has always been guilty of not being able to give Wu Genji a healthy body, it was her fault. After she gave birth to three sons she was already too old to get pregnant again, so when she got pregnant with Wu Genji, not once did she think that she was pregnant at most she thought that she might have gotten sick and caught a bug in her stomach.

​ For months she continued to live her life with ease and it was only after three months when she went to her daily medical checkup did she find out that she was pregnant again. Mother Wu was really upset when she realised that she had done something so terrible that was why when Wu Genji was born with a sickly body, she started to pour all her love on her daughter.

At first, it was just out of guilt but after so many years, it became a habit for mother Wu, now to her—— her daughter was the best girl in the world and other than that every other woman was just a speck of mud under her daughter's shoes.  At the thought that her daughter has been liking this man for so long and yet couldn't marry him because of Song Yan, she was not pleased with all.

Speaking of which, she has never even thought about the age difference between  Fu Yu Sheng and her daughter, to her Fu Yu Sheng was a man that her daughter very much wanted and as her mother, she has to bring her everything that her daughter wanted to get. Age difference? What was there to worry about? Nowadays so many elderly men were in a relationship with women half their age, at least the difference between Fu Yu Sheng and Wu Genji was just a bit over a decade.

So, even though Song Yan was good and she was respectful to her despite all the non-blatant disrespect Mother Wu was showing to her, Mother Wu couldn't like her because she was an obstacle in the path of her daughter's happiness!

If she could, she would have loved to throw a blank cheque at Song Yan's face and ask her to get lost from Fu Yu Sheng's life and hand the position of second madam Fu to her daughter with all the bells and strings attached but she could see that Fu Yu Sheng wasn't happy with her disrespecting his wife, so Mother Wu could only suppress her anger. Today, she called Fu Yu Sheng here to show just how good her daughter was and not burn the bridges between the two.

So, in the end, she clapped her hands and said, " Aiya, I seem to have forgotten that Genji has been waiting for you for a long time, master Fu. I heard from her that you like eating spicy crayfish. She has been working in the kitchen for a long time since the morning preparing those crayfish for you. I told her that she should take a break, after all, you two have known each other for so long just her sincerity was enough but she didn't listen to me."

Mother Wu then turned to look at Song Yan and instead of blatantly boasting, she chuckled softly and said to her indirectly, " Genji and master Fu have been good friends since they were young. When Fu Yu Sheng was young, he would often come by our house and have dinner with our family, he even used to play house with Genji, honestly, the two of them were so cute that I can't tell you, especially when he used to play the role of Genji's husband."

It was true that Fu Yu Sheng came to Wu's house but he came to look for Wu Jin, not Wu Genji, however, Mother Wu made it sound like he came to their house to play with Wu Genji.

Song Yan looked at the proactiveness and dislike in Mother Wu's eyes and she had to suppress the urge to roll her eyes at the woman in front of her. These kinds of tactics would have worked if she was a young woman who did not know any better but she was someone who has been wandering on the face of the earth for five hundred years, if not for Gu Yijin, she might have even watched the zombie apocalypse.  Did Mother Wu think that she will send her flying in rage with just this much? What a joke.

Let's say that she was still in love with Fu Yu Sheng, she was raised to be a perfect socialite even though she was later kicked out of her family, so even if she didn't go through those trials and tribulations that she had to go through, she wouldn't have shamed her husband in front of everyone like this.

She opened her mouth to speak but before she could say anything, Fu Yu Sheng, the recently unleashed chihuahua straightened his back and straightforwardly said, " Madam Wu, it's true that I used to like spicy crayfish when I was young but now that I am a middle-aged old man, I do not like eating them anymore. I apologise for the trouble but my stomach has gone really weak in these years, after all, what kind of thirty-year-old man can eat what he used to eat when he was sixteen without getting his stomach inflamed."

If he was the Fu Yu Sheng of the past with the suppression doll inside him, he would have pursed his lips, thanked the Wu family and would have eaten the spicy crayfish even if he had to take digestion medicines after he went back home but now he was no longer the same Fu Yu Sheng, he was the free version of himself, so he didn't even think of suppressing himself and spoke what was going in his head causing Mother Wu and Wu Qinfan's expression to turn cold, while Wu Genji, on the other hand, blushed red as she lowered her head and bit her lips hard enough to draw blood.

Clenching her fingers she stared at the floor and said in a soft yet sobbing voice, " I am so sorry, Brother Sheng…I didn't know and I made a mistake, I should have asked your preferences before."

Though she made it sound like she wasn't blaming Fu Yu Sheng at all, with that wronged voice of hers even Father Wu's brows scrunched up a little and Wu Qinfan who doted on his sister to the moon and back could not help but say, " Yu Sheng, aren't you  being tab bit rude to Genji, she has been working hard in the kitchen for the entire morning."

" I …." didn't ask her to do it you son of a bitch, was what he wanted to say but then someone stomped on his feet harshly and Fu Yu Sheng immediately changed his words as he smiled and said, " I am not trying to be rude, you might not know this but a few years ago, I was shot in my guts and almost died. Ever since then the doctor has asked me not to eat anything too spicy, if I could I would have eaten a bunch of crayfish but I can't as per the doctor's orders. Of course, if you think that I am lying then you are welcome to come and check the gunshot wound, I can show it to you …or you can ask Jin' ah, he was the one who was responsible for tracing the culprit in the country."

" He is speaking the truth," Wu Jin replied feeling grateful, in fact unlike his mother and brother, he preferred Fu Yu Sheng shooting Wu Genji's advances down as swiftly as possible, this way she would not keep holding on to him. " He was shot four years ago and the gunshot was rather deep, spilling the acids of his stomach along with blood. I don't know about the follow-ups of the matter but I do know that anyone who is shot in the stomach must be rather careful with their health."

" You see, I am not lying or trying to be rude brother Qinfan," Fu Yu Sheng didn't like Wu Qinfan and Mother Wu's arrogance and bossiness like everyone was supposed to follow their will but the feet that were grinding on his feet told him that he better follow along and not raise any suspicions in Wu Genji's head. That was why he brought up the matter of him getting shot but why was it that the pressure on his foot was increasing and not decreasing?
