Max Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey…?
Chapter 396: Regret

Chapter 396: Chapter 396: Regret

Hearing everyone say this, Wan Qing was at a loss for words and didn’t know how to respond.

Fu Yuxing was also fuming, never expecting these people to be so shameless!

Even in this situation, they still wanted to stay!

But aside from this, he didn’t have a legitimate reason to ask them to leave.

Contemplating this, Fu Yuxing clenched his fists and said, "If you want to stay, then stay..."

Fu Yi, put on the spot by everyone’s comments, could only go along with Fu Yuxing’s words and said, "Then let’s all stay and take a look together. I’ve never seen Master Wood either; let’s watch and learn something new."

Fu Song exaggeratedly said, "So Master Wood has only been in contact with the third sister-in-law? Even third brother hasn’t met him?"

This simple sentence was overloaded with implications.

Fu Yi’s mouth twitched.

Wan Qing was about to hurry and explain.

But Jiangli spoke up again, "When are we eating, do we have to wait for Master Wood? I’m already hungry..."

She rubbed her stomach, her small face full of grievance, eliciting pity from others.

Fu Shiyan said, "Uncle, how about we eat first?"

Fu Yi hadn’t yet met Master Wood, but he was already quite displeased with him.

Hearing this, he didn’t care about keeping up appearances or superficial courtesies and directly said, "Alright, then let’s eat first. We can eat and wait at the same time."

Everyone once again put on smiling faces, but whether those smiles were genuine or fake, everyone knew in their hearts.

The group entered the dining room and took their places at the table.

Seeing this, Wan Qing pulled Fu Yuxing aside and told the others, "Husband, you all start eating; Yuxing has an injury on his neck, I should take him to treat it first."

What else could Fu Yi say? He nodded coldly.

Wan Qing then took Fu Yuxing into the bedroom.

Upon entering the bedroom, Wan Qing’s demeanor changed completely, her expression dark and gloomy. "Yuxing, tell me what exactly happened?"

"Liao Qianqian..." Fu Yuxing’s voice was excessively hoarse.

Wan Qing heard this and went out to pour him a glass of water and came back.

After drinking some water, Fu Yuxing’s throat felt slightly better, and he spoke again, "Liao Qianqian has come back."

Having helped Fu Yuxing deal with Liao Qianqian’s body years ago, Wan Qing certainly remembered who Liao Qianqian was and exclaimed in shock, "How is that possible?!"

Fu Yuxing seemed frantic, "I can’t believe it either, but she almost killed me! Mom, look at the wound on my neck!"

Fu Yuxing pulled open his collar, exposing the wound.

Even if Wan Qing didn’t want to believe it, the reality was undeniable, which made her increasingly anxious. She clasped her hands tightly and began to pace back and forth.

"But... how is this possible... Liao Qianqian is clearly dead; I even had Master Wood deal with her body..."

Fu Yuxing, with a headache, said, "Mom, this isn’t the time to talk about that. The urgent matter is to deal with Liao Qianqian! That’s why I called Master Wood over; now we can only hope that Master Wood will take care of Liao Qianqian!"

Wan Qing’s right eyelid twitched uncontrollably. She pressed her hand against it, saying uneasily, "I just feel there’s more to it than meets the eye..."

She looked up at Fu Yuxing, frustrated with his foolishness.

"Look at what you’ve done. Why did you harm her in the first place? If you hadn’t hurt her, we wouldn’t be in this situation! Do you realize, if it’s discovered, you..."

Fu Yuxing coldly interrupted her, impatiently saying, "Mom, what’s the use of saying that now? If you really blamed me for hurting someone, you should have called the police back then, instead of helping me dispose of the body!"

Wan Qing was speechless.

Fu Yuxing was her only son, and she had high hopes for him; she couldn’t just watch as his future was ruined.
