Bang!
Shen Yu fell straight on the floor and because she wasn't prepared for the fall, she landed squarely on her face. The sound of her fall was so loud that the members of the Fu family who were walking in front of her all paused and then turned to look at the fallen Shen Yu who was sprawled on the floor.
" What happened?" Fu Yu Sheng was the closest to Shen Yu because the latter stayed behind to walk beside him, so when Shen Yu fell, he was the one who was the one who got startled the most. He was simply walking in front, how come someone suddenly fell on the floor like this? Though the floor of the Fu family was rather smooth, it wasn't smooth to the point where no one would be able to walk on it.
Song Yan was the only one who smiled at the fallen Shen Yu who was looking like she was seeing stars in front of her eyes, this woman was the one who cajoled her master and made him take responsibility for her only to betray him in the face of danger.
The Gu family was the most prestigious family when it came to the knowledge of the supernatural and pill refining, Shen Yu belonged to the Shen family who was in relation to the Gu family through some minor family branch. Gu Chenyi who was the son of the main family, of course, would never look at a woman like Shen Yu and this was something Shen Yu knew as well which was why she took advantage of the fact that she was the most talented individual in the Shen and the Gu family.
She slowly got closer to the old master Gu and then won his trust, the old master Gu was not a talented celestial master which was why he could not see the evil that lay behind Shen Yu's pretty face, under the continuous coaxing and the sweet talking that Shen Yu did with the old master Gu, the latter was fooled.
If he was the only one who was getting fooled then it would have been fine but then the old master went ahead and then arranged the engagement between Gu Chenyi and Shen Yu.
This engagement should have been enough to satisfy Shen Yu but the woman was like a hole of greed, no matter how many times one refilled it, she will remain unsatisfied. At first, Shen Yu was rather happy with the engagement and she was even happy to spend her life with Gu Chenyi but when she moved to the main house of the Gu family and saw the world, she became more and more greedy. Her arrogance grew ten times fold and she started to shun Gu Chenyi whom she has once chased, in her eyes the celestial master Gu should go around leeching every person whom he could get his hands on but Gu Chenyi wasn't such a person.
He would help those who couldn't help them without taking any money from them, this was what Shen Yu hated the most. She wished for more money, more comfort and more fame which was why she was rather dissatisfied with Gu Chenyi and was now eyeing Fu Yu Sheng.
Song Yan has been with Gu Chenyi as a servant for more than twenty years before he was killed and of course, she knew Shen Yu rather well, for now, she knew that she couldn't take care of Shen Yu who was yet to make a big move but that did not mean that she will let this woman succeed in her evil plans.
" What are you doing?" Seeing that Fu Yu Sheng was going to help Shen Yu who was moaning in front of him asking him to pick up her, she caught hold of Fu Yu Sheng's arm and then pulled him back, raising a brow she tipped her head up and looked at her husband. " Your wife is standing right next to you and you are going to help another woman? Are you looking for divorce?"
Before Fu Yu Sheng could say anything old master Fu who was keeping an eye on the situation immediately jumped in fright and then said, " Yu Sheng, you idiot get back here! Who are you helping? Do you even have enough strength to pick your relationship up, help yourself first before helping anyone else! You idiotic grandson of mine!"
There was already enough trouble and he was adding more trouble to it, what kind of grandsons did his son gave him? Not one would let him rest in ease.
" I am not touching anything!" Fu Yu Sheng raised his hand and immediately backed off, in fact, he backed off before old master Fu got angry at him but he was still scolded.
Shen Yu who was on the floor heard the words that Song Yan and Old master Fu said and was immediately embarrassed, she didn't know how she fell on the floor as well but the fall wasn't light and her entire body was hurting, she wanted to get up but because of the sudden fall she ended up twisting her ankle and couldn't rise.
Finally, Gu Chenyi couldn't see the embarrassing sight anymore and went to help her. The engagement was settled by the elders of the Gu family and he couldn't say anything about it, as a celestial master he could see the future of others but he could hardly see his future with Shen Yu and the reason was that she was a celestial master as well. Even though he was powerful enough to see that they weren't compatible, the rest of the future was obscured by Shen Yu who was bent on hiding her true feelings from him, their powers clashed with each other, making it impossible for him to see what was going to happen in the future.
" Can you restrain your lust for other men for a day or two?" Gu Chenyi healed the broken ankle of Shen Yu and then coldly glanced at her. " I understand that I am not what makes you happy any more but this is simply too embarrassing, for me."
