My Wife Is A Ghost Exorciser

" Acquired? What but how?" Song Yan was stumped, she left home for just one day—— how come something like that happened all of a sudden. " Didn't you say that Fu Yu Sheng was the one who was coming to take a look at the company and that it was going to be acquired later on? How come it happened all of a sudden? Did Fu Yu Sheng——" she cut off realising that her husband was right next to her throughout the day, the only possibility of him going to her brother's company and acquiring was only in case of him acquiring the power of flash first.

" Oh, it's not Fu Yu Sheng, if it would have been him, I would have been resentfully overjoyed," Song Ling Yan picked up his beer can and took a long swig before he placed the can back on the table with a loud thump. " If it would have been him, then our company would have a better chance to start afresh, as much as I hate to admit it, that guy has a flair for business even if he had a few bumps here and there, he was able to get through them and build the declining Fu family from the scratch again after the death of his parents. But no, of all the prayers that I made to God, he has to answer was this one—— now I am stuck with Ji Bojing, that eldest young master of Ji family, why of all people him?"

Song Lingyan ended with a loud cry as he punched the hard wooden surface of the table and planted his face right against it before moaning painfully, " It could have been Dong Chung, why wasn't he chosen? God, if you are going to listen to my prayers then listen to them completely what is the meaning of fulfilling only half of it?"

" Brother, didn't you have a fight with master Dong when you were in college?" said Song Yan as she remembered the drunken fight in which her brother and the master of the Dong family were involved. The two of them have been sworn enemies ever since then, she tried to ask why her brother fought with master Dong but he has never told her about the reason, if anything if she were to ask what happened, he will just stare at her until she would drop the matter.

Her brother stiffened ever so slightly before he thumped his fist on the table again. " If I knew you will marry that Fu Yu Sheng, I wouldn't have fought with master Dong!"

" What?"

" Nothing," said Song Ling Yan as he pushed himself off the table and sighed as if he was tired of everything. " Ji Bojing, I bet that guy will sell all of us together along with our skins just in a few months, and yet my boss is going on and on about how our company was saved by Ji Bojing, like hell."

Wen Mingzhi and Song Yan's exchanged a glance with each other as they watched Song Ling Yan complain about Ji Bojing. They waited for Song Lin Yan to finish before Wen Mingzhi tentatively asked, "Isn't the Ji family in-laws with the Fu family?" She wasn't from City W so, Wen Mingzhi wasn't aware of the dynamics of the families of their city thus, in her eyes, the Ji family acquiring the company was the same as the Fu family acquiring it.

" They are sister-in-law," answered Song Yan as she picked up another can of beer and popped it open, before handing it to her brother who was wriggling his fingers towards the can but couldn't get close to it. " But the relationship dynamics between the two families are good just on the surface, in reality, it's more like a leech and host. Fu Yu Sheng's aunt always calls in grandfather for some sort of favour on account of her husband, in fact, the Ji family was just a small literary family before Fu Yu Sheng's aunt married their son, and only then did they get to what they are now… it's very old information that's why you didn't know anything about it, it has been a long time and everyone seemed to have forgotten about it but the families who were here from the beginning know all about the Ji family and that's why they avoid them with a wide berth."

" Exactly, I tried to explain to my boss that it's a very bad idea to let the guy acquire it, that we should put up a fight against the Ji family," Song Ling Yan who was lying on the table raised his head and snorted. " But that guy has fallen so deep in the pit called Ji Bojing, that he might as well announce their engagement anytime soon. Like I can't understand what kind of medicine that guy has mixed in my boss's tea and made him drink but my boss isn't willing to listen to a thing that I or anyone in the company have to say."

Picking up the newly opened beer can, Song Ling Yan placed it on his lips which has gone chapped because of the excessive smoking he has been doing ever since he found out that Ji Bojing was going to take over their company. It was one of that news that not only ripped the rug from under his feet but also plunged him deep into a crevice, " Ji Bojing who does not know what that guy is capable of? If that guy can run our company without running into the ground for three months, I will take my hat off for that guy.  But I know he won't be able to do that, you know why? Because he is got that rich playboy's heart, he wouldn't be able to sit still in the company for like three days straight and after that what? He will wipe his butt and leave, but what about people like us? Who are dependent on that company for our livelihood?"
