The door swung open and in came Master Song, his expression was disgruntled as he looked at Fu Yu Sheng, never before has he ever thought that he would be subjected to a treatment as such, was he really made to wait outside the office for whole seven minutes before he was allowed to come inside? When was he treated in a way like this before? If not for his daughter, he would have already turned around and left but Song Lan told him that it has been months since she last met Fu Yu Sheng and had a chat with him.
Seriously, though why was he even trying so hard to put pretences in front of him? Wasn't he still a rookie when it came to business, wasn't he? After all, compared to Fu Yu Sheng, he has been in the business industry for a long time and knew how things work, unlike this untaught, uncultivated brat who popped out of nowhere. Yet, instead of treating him like a senior, he was treating him as such. What was the meaning of this?
Song Lan noticed that her father was upset and hurriedly, pulled on his sleeves causing him to suppress his frown and look at Fu Yu Sheng with a smile. " You must have been really busy my dear son-in-law," said Master Fu as he strode forward and took a seat opposite to Fu Yu Sheng. " I was in a hurry to meet you that's why I arranged for this meeting so early in the morning, I apologise for disturbing you."
Though that was what Master Song said, everyone with wits could tell that he was sarcastically taunting Fu Yu Sheng for making him wait outside the door of his office.
" Yes, I do admit that I am busy and it's my fault for making you wait, father in law," said Fu Yu Sheng as he calmly clasped his hands and placed them on the table, Master Song's expression smoothed a little after listening to Fu Yu Sheng's words but before he could even relish the taste of victory, Fu Yu Sheng added in an unhurried tone. " But I am a busy man, with father in law being seven minutes late for the meeting, I had no choice but to finish the work that was pending, you cannot expect me to sit idle and wait, now can you?"
" You…" this was the first time Fu Yu Sheng returned his sarcasm with his own response, Master Song couldn't help but be stunned at the sudden change in Fu Yu Sheng and at the same time a sense of urgency rose in his heart. Did something happen? No, if something happened his spy in the lab would have told him about it… there is no way that anything would escape his mind.
He was furious enough to taut Fu Yu Sheng with the formula that he has in his hands but then Song Lan placed his hands on his shoulder and stopped him.
Only then did Master Song calm down and then turned to look at his daughter who was standing behind him. " What are you standing there for? Come on and sit here."
Song Lan shyly looked at Fu Yu Sheng and motioned her head towards him, Master Song understood her intentions and looked at Fu Yu Sheng with expectations. " Well, son in law?"
" Well, what father-in-law?" asked Fu Yu Sheng, he knew what was happening … he has seen Master Song do this thing a lot of times and he has unwillingly humoured him but not this time. After eight years of hard work, he wasn't going to let it go down the drain.
" Aren't you going to ask Lan'er to sit down?" said Master Song with a tone that sounded like he was trying to teach a six year old child what 'basic courtesy' was.
Fu Yu Sheng swept a glance at Song Lan whose face turned red with embarrassment and shyness upon being looked at by the man of her dreams. But then Fu Yu Sheng opened his mouth and all the shyness turned into rage and humiliation, " Why should I ask Miss Song to sit down? She is not my colleague nor my business partner. In fact, I can't seem to understand why father-in-law brought her here, is there something that you want to discuss with me regarding Miss Song?"
Master Song's face twitched but he knew he couldn't go against Fu Yu Sheng at the moment, his daughter loved this man no matter how unruly he was …. So for the sake of his daughter, he will have to suck his anger in, after taking a calming breath and despite having a nerve throbbing in his forehead, Master Song smiled at Fu Yu Sheng and said, " Son in law, sure knows how to jest… Lan'er is my daughter and the heir of the Song industries, of course, I am going to bring her around with me so that she could learn a few things from me," then he turned to look at Song Lan and hissed, " Lan'er sit down now."
This time Song Lan did as her father asked, she knew that Fu Yu Sheng wouldn't ask her to sit down today and nor did he look like he was willing to humour her father. Though she was confused, she was smart enough to not act recklessly …. So instead of waiting for Fu Yu Sheng to ask her to sit down, she sat by herself.
Fu Yu Sheng raised a brow and leaned back on his chair as he looked at the father and daughter pair with an assessing gaze. " Your heir, you say?"
Master Song puffed out his chest and patted Song Lan on the back as he nodded. " That's right my heir, after me, everything will belong to Lan'er and I believe she will——-"
" Have my wife and brother-in-law agreed to this arrangement of yours, father-in-law?" asked Fu Yu Sheng as he smiled shrewdly with a calculating look in his eyes. " Or did you come up with this decision on your own without asking anyone?"
