These words were like a bombshell on Li Wenyi she looked at Song Yan with a confused look in her eyes before she licked her lips and then said, " I …I don't think that is possible right?"
" Of course, it is not possible but the workers of your company truly believe that something like this is happening, in fact when I was looking around the company I found one of your receptionists praying in front of the portrait like one would do in a temple," Song Yan smiled as she curled a side of her lips. " But the thing about praying in a temple is that no one knows whether or not the hope for which the prayer was done would get fulfilled but the same could not be said for that woman in the picture, it seems like she truly fulfils the wishes of those who pray to her."
Song Yan picked up a small piece of thread that has stuck to her clothes and then turned her head to the side as she rubbed the thread with her thumb and forefinger she looked at Li Wenyi sideways and then said in an overly cold voice, " But do you know what is the difference between a wish that has been fulfilled instantly by someone else and the wish that has been fulfilled by the Gods?"
When Li Wenyi did not reply, Song Yan leaned forward and stared right into the eyes of Li Wenyi who was staring at her with a stiff expression not even daring to breathe loudly. " The wishes fulfilled by Gods are like Charity, the Gods will not think of getting anything in return but the wishes fulfilled by those who don't have any heavenly powers would want something in return. After all, there is no such thing as free lunch in this world is it?"
Li Wenyi's face turned black when she heard Song Yan, she did not understand half of the things that Song Yan was saying but she could understand what she was trying to tell. The portrait was troublesome, it must be fulfilling the wishes of those who were wishing in front of it but in return, it might be taking something in return from them ..something like their …life.
" Should I throw it away?" Li Wenyi could only think of this solution, after all as long as the picture of that woman was gone, everything will be, all right, right?
" You are naive sister in law," Song Yan blinked her eyes as she looked at Li Wenyi with a calm look in her eyes but something about her gaze made Li Wenyi stiffen as she clenched her fingers and looked at Song Yan who was looking at her like she was making a mistake. " A devil is easier to invite than send it away, you can throw the painting away but the thing that is inside it will always stay here until we find a way to deal with it. And what's more your workers are quite attached to that painting as well, if you take it down then it will be like a strike to their moral support… I don't think that they will be happy with your decision. After all, the temptations handed by the devil are not something everyone can resist."
Li Wenyi gritted her teeth as the pencil in her hand cracked in half, even though the pencil was delicate it still had some thickness to it but Li Wenyi who worked out a bit too much snapped it with ease as she grounded out, " Who can it be? Who will do something like this to me?"
" Do you really don't know sister in law?" Song Yan asked with an innocent tilt of her head. " There is only one woman who will succeed if you were to die and get out of her path."
As soon as Song Yan finished speaking Li Wenyi remembered Chen Chu Chu. She thought of how Chen Chu Chu has always acted like she was the one who was getting bullied when it was the other way around and even though she has never done anything to Chen Chu Chu, she has been scolded by the people who worked in the lab with Fu Shu Chang for being heartless and cold.
If it wasn't for Song Yan reminding her, she would have never made this connection with Chen Chu Chu. After all, that woman worked in the lab for the purpose of science and whatnot, it was impossible for her to be involved with something like this but these words that came from Song Yan made her rethink what was more Song Yan sounded extremely certain. An absurd thought came into her head and Li Wenyi was left horrified if what Song Yan said was the truth then she could only say one thing and that was Chen Chu Chu was too terrifying and scheming.
She has already snatched her husband, even if she was the legal wife. Everyone in the lab where Fu Shu Chang worked treated her as the wife and mistress of the lab every time she went to see Fu Shu Chang when they were newly married, those people would sneer at her and call her a third party saying that she came between Fu Shu Chang and Chen Chu Chu.
Chen Chu Chu has been running around in circles and making everyone dance to her tune, what was more she snatched her title, her husband and her position but she still feigned smiles in front of her from time to time making it look like she was the one who was making things difficult for her. The people in the lab only saw her tears and thought that she was indeed bullying Chen Chu Chu.
But that was not all, she was even scheming to kill her behind everyone's back and even came up with a plan that wouldn't even dirty her hands at all! Such a woman ….
Her tricks and scheming were simply too terrifying!
