My Wife Is A Ghost Exorciser

230 Might not be alive

" Brother Wu," Song Yan ignored Fu Yu Sheng's antics of glaring at the other men as if he was going to eat them alive, instead she turned her attention to Wu Jin who looked thoroughly amused by what was happening. She greeted him lightly neither being too overbearing nor too shy as she was in the past, instead she raised her head and looked straight at Wu Jin.

Wu Jin's eyes widened slightly back when Fu Yu Sheng was getting married, everything was done in such a rushed manner that the Fu family couldn't even invite most of the invitees as they expected instead they just sent out a few invitation letters to their close friends and family.

As Fu Yu Sheng's friend, Wu Jin was invited as well and he had a very poor impression of Song Yan. Throughout the wedding ceremony, the woman had her head lowered and she didn't even greet anyone, sticking close to her brother, she pretty much ignored everyone else around her.

He turned his head to look at the unnerved Fu Yu Sheng and smiled with a teasing glint in his eyes. " Brother Fu, are you going to stay outside or you are going to come inside with sister-in-law?"

Fu Yu Sheng wanted to curse, looking at the trash men eyeing his wife left and right but since he knew if he tried to control Song Yan, she will only roll her eyes and do exactly the opposite of what he asked her, Fu Yu Sheng didn't say anything. He placed his hand on the small of his wife's back and since they were in public she didn't shake him off either, together they walked inside the Wu mansion ignoring the chatter that was going around them.

" They are quite curious about you two," sensing that all the guests of the Wu family were looking at Fu Yu Sheng, Wu Jin smilingly spoke but the more he smiled the more Song Yan thought of him as a sly fox that had too much free time in his hands. "You have hardly appeared in any family banquet before, I am afraid you will have a hard time tonight. Such a pity."

He didn't look like he pitied either Song Yan or Fu Yu Sheng instead he looked like he was having quite fun!

But what he said was right, ever since Fu Yu Sheng got married, he has been living in another country and Song Yan was too ashamed to show her face to the people of the upper class after being bullied by her in-laws.

So, neither of them ever appeared in any of the banquets that were arranged by the influential families.

That would explain why half of the women's faces were covered in shock and complete devastation. They must have not known that Fu Yu Sheng was already married.

" I am only here to honour your invitation," said Fu Yu Sheng in a clipped voice as he glanced at the crowd that was staring at him and Song Yan like a bunch of hungry dogs. " If I or my wife feel uncomfortable, I will take backpedal in no time, you hear me? Anyway, I have fulfilled my side of the agreement by attending the banquet."

" Not yet," said Wu Jin smoothly as he looked at Fu Yu Sheng before turning left slightly and raising one hand to call the waiter serving the drinks among the guests. "You promised to stay until my father cut his birthday cake."

The sour look on Fu Yu Sheng's face screamed that he did not do anything like that.  " Oh really? Why don't I remember making such a promise?"

Wu Jin simply smiled and motioned for them to choose the drinks from the tray before picking up one himself. " I think you might have forgotten because of all the overwork you do but please by all means stay until the cake cutting. My father will be happy."

Song Yan picked up the undertone when Wu Jin said the last words, though it wasn't clear because of his smiling voice, one could hear that he wanted Fu Yu Sheng to stay till the end of the banquet.

If she could understand his meaning, Fu Yu Sheng undoubtedly understood as well. His face turned grim as he nodded. " I understand, I will stay till the cake cutting."

Wu Jin's smile turned a degree genuine before he raised the glass in his hand and toasted them. " Cheers, brother Fu, sister-in-law."

Song Yan gulped down the fruit wine tasting the sweetness spread all over her mouth because she was here to investigate the situation of the missing kids, Song Yan couldn't let herself go with the flow and let loose, she needed to be alert and completely on guard so as not to miss anything.

" This place smells of death," commented Fang Yanli as she floated out of the ring and took a sniff. Because she was weakened after Song Yan lost control, she has been staying in the ring busy cultivating the Yin energy that she has lost, last time she almost dropped a cultivation level it was with sheer luck that she sucked in Fu Yu Sheng's Yang energy and was able to recover a little.

" I know," muttered Song Yan, she has sensed the dark fumes that were rolling on the floor. The second she stepped inside the Wu mansion she smelled the scent of blood and rotting corpses, it was faint but it was there—— when she came here she hoped that she would be able to save at least one or two children but looks like that was no longer possible.

Fu Yu Sheng took a glimpse of his wife's face, he didn't say a word when she talked to herself. After the incident in the abandoned village, though he couldn't see any supernatural things or ghosts, he could still make out the faint outline of Fang Yanli's ghostly figure.

He didn't know how he was still able to see her but maybe it had something to do with the sudden explosion that happened before he passed out.

But that wasn't his concern at the moment. Looking at his wife's face he realised that the matter was a lot more serious than he expected it to be —— his fingers clenched when he realised that there was a possibility that the children might not be …alive.
