Chapter 1263: A greedy glint
On the other hand, at the Ma family's house Madam Ma was still upset over the fact that Song Yan had disrespected her and Fu Yu Sheng had refused to help her husband. The Fu family owed their Lin family what was the point of acting all stubborn?
They should lower their heads and listen to what she asks them to do. However, Fu Yu Sheng was acting as if his family had done nothing wrong and that the death of her sister was not caused by his father.
"That dumb man!" Madam Ma threw the pillow that she was holding in her hands onto the floor and cursed Fu Yu Sheng. Because of him, her husband scolded her and called her an idiot. He told her how the Fu family was going to be the one family who would be taking over the capital as they were now closer to the Ji and the Tang family.
And she should have sucked up to Fu Yu Sheng instead of getting angry at him, but how was she supposed to do that? Fu Yu Sheng was someone on whose head she had stomped on many times. Madam Ma was used to demanding and being arrogant in front of even Old Master Fu. How could she lower her head in front of Fu Yu Sheng?
The more she thought about it the more angry, Madam Ma became. She wanted to call Fu Yu Sheng and scold him but when she thought of her husband who asked her to stay quiet and not cause trouble for him anymore, Madam Ma could only purse her lips and suppress that desire.
"Mother, you should have listened to me when I told you to calm down," Ma Yun said to his mother. He picked up the pillow that was on the floor and then walked over to the couch and then placed it on the couch. "Dad clearly asked you to look for Cousin Yu Sheng and hand him the Fu Family deal but you made a fuss."
"How did I make a fuss!" Madam Ma was quite angry when she heard the words of her son. It was one thing that her husband was getting angry at her and refusing to stay with her but Ma Yun was her son. No matter what he should be on her side, why was he taking the side of his useless father who at the age of forty needed the support and help of someone much younger than him?
Ma Yun sighed and then said to his mother, "Mom, with changing times we need to learn what is best for us. You might not be willing to accept it but the Lin family's power has dwindled. The only reason the Lin family is still one of the aristocratic family is because Grandpa is still alive, the second he is gone, the Lin family will be reduced to nothing and you know that as well."
"What nonsense! " Madam Ma of course knew that her maternal family was getting weaker but she didn't want to listen to it. It was because of the Lin family that she could live in the Ma family like a queen, if something happened to the Lin family what would happen to her?
She glared at her son and then waved her hand before saying, "Stop paying attention to such nonsensical things. You need to pay more attention to Xiyuan, when was the last time the two of you go together somewhere?"
When Madam Ma spoke about Ye Xiyuan, Ma Yun pursed his lips. He had been trying to reach his fiancee as well but Ye Xiyuan was busy with some sort of new research and told him that he needed to stay quiet and not disturb her.
"She is busy with her new research," Ma Yun informed his mother who glared at him and then said, "You don't know anything! Girls like to act hard to get, even though she is now your fiancee, Xiyuan is better than you in every aspect. If not for the fact that she fell in love with you, she would have never even looked in your direction."
Ma Yun clenched his fingers. In fact, he was also talented when it came to sculpting but his mother did not think that it was enough.
Which was why she purposely pushed him to learn the business and asked him to grow out of his childish dream.
If that was all, it would have been fine but his mother loved to compare him with Ye Xiyuan. Now for Ma Yun, it felt like it was his mother who was engaged to Ye Xiyuan and not him.
"I will talk to her," Ma Yun knew that even if he was to refuse his mother would not let him drop the matter.
"What do you mean by you will talk to her? Listen to me Ah Yun, women like Xiyuan are hard to come by. You need to show off your love and attention to her, if not then someone else would come and take her away from you."
"Listen to me, go and look for Xiyuan okay? Talk to her and take her to dinner."
Ma Yun looked at his mother helplessly before sighing as he agreed.
At Ye Pharmaceuticals.
Ye Xiyuan was looking at her colleague who had just finished analyzing the data about turning skin ten years younger. It was a pill that could go against the latest skin whitening treatment cream and that too at a reasonable price.
"We have finally succeeded, Researcher Ye," the man said with a smile as he looked at Ye Xiyuan's beautiful face. "It seems that our company is going to get even bigger and better." Because the man was too busy looking at Ye Xiyuan's smile and admiration, he missed the greedy glint in her eyes that was almost ruthless to the point that anyone could see that she was oozing murderous intent.
"Master He, if you don't mind will you come to my house for dinner tonight?"
