Chapter 246: Is This Gift Surprising?
Xiao Li continued, “Don’t worry! I won’t s.n.a.t.c.h Qilin’s custody from you. You don’t have to worry that Qilin will be sent to some other family. As long as you find a woman who doesn’t interfere with your life and get married to her as soon as possible, you can still raise Qilin.”
Hearing that, Zhuang Long thought that this woman would abandon her son just to leave him!
Xiao Li saw Zhuang Long looking at her with deep eyes filled with urgency and anger; she thought that he could not wait to divorce her.
A hint of sadness quietly spread in her eyes, but she hid it soon. Pretending to calmly smile at Zhuang Long and Xiao Li, she said, “Zhuang Long, I’ll give you freedom.”
Zhuang Long’s face suddenly darkened. He grabbed Xiao Li’s hand and said to everyone, “You guys continue playing. I have something to attend to.” Then, he pulled Xiao Li, who was in her high heels, out of the suite.
Everyone: “…”
Yan Nuo and Fang Yusheng worriedly looked at each other.
After this change, no one was in the mood to continue playing the game.
Qiao Jiusheng looked at Jiang Wei, Yan Nuo, and Qiao Sen. She realized that Jiang Wei had the most items on him. Yan Nuo was second, and Qiao Sen had already taken off his suit jacket.
“If Qingqing is made the winner, does anyone have any objections?”
Everyone agreed with that.
After the card game ended, Qiao Jiusheng pulled Fang Yusheng and asked him, “Will Zhuang Long and Xiao Li cause any trouble?”
Fang Yusheng was not sure either. “Which room are they in? Should we go take a look?”
“Okay.”
The two of them found a staff member and asked for the numbers of Zhuang Long’s and Xiao Li’s rooms. They walked to the floor where the rooms were and realized that Zhuang Qilin was with a middle-aged uncle, playing in the corridor. Fang Yusheng recognized that this middle-aged man was Zhuang Long’s butler.
The two of them looked worriedly at each other.
She chased her son out. Did the two of them fight?
Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng had the same thought. They quickly walked to the door and vaguely heard a sound from inside. The two of them pressed their ears against the door. The hotel’s soundproofing was excellent. Even though Xiao Li was scolding and kicking Zhuang Long in the room, no commotion could be heard outside.
Fang Yusheng listened attentively for a while before pulling Qiao Jiusheng’s hand and saying, “Let’s go.”
Qiao Jiusheng was confused. “There was no fight inside?”
“She’s fighting.”
“Aren’t we going in to persuade him?” Although Xiao Li looked quite tall, Zhuang Long was much taller than her. If the two of them fought, Xiao Li would be at a disadvantage.
Fang Yusheng snorted and said, “Mortals shouldn’t get involved in demon fights.”
Besides, why would we join in the fun when two of them are fighting naked?
In the evening, only Zhuang Long attended the ball.
Every time Qiao Jiusheng didn’t find Xiao Li, she would think that Zhuang Long had injured Xiao Li. Therefore, she would look at Zhuang Long unhappily. When Qiao Jiusheng spotted the chubby Zhuang Qilin dressed in a small suit, she went there and asked him about it. Zhuang Qilin could not speak Chinese, but he could speak the Northeast dialect.
Qiao Jiusheng pulled him to a corner and asked, “Where’s your mommy?”
“Why are you asking this?” Zhuang Qilin looked at Qiao Jiusheng warily, not revealing any information about his mother.
Qiao Jiusheng raised her eyebrows and spoke to him in the Northeast dialect. “What’s wrong? Can’t I ask? I’m just showing some concern.”
“Oh! Where are you from?” Zhuang Qilin looked like he had seen his accomplice and forced a smile. “What’s your relations.h.i.+p to my mother?” He was rather cautious.
Qiao Jiusheng said, “Friends.
“What happened between your daddy and mommy this afternoon?”
Zhuang Qilin pursed his lips; he was not too happy. He dejectedly said, “They were noisy at first. They were noisy, and my mommy beat my daddy. Then, my daddy hugged my mommy and rolled on the bed together…”
Qiao Jiusheng felt that she had heard something she should not have.
“Where is your mommy now?”
“Back to America!” Zhuang Qilin shrugged and said, “She found me a little father.”
Qiao Jiusheng took half a second to digest this conversation.
She sorted out the development of the matter.
Xiao Li had agreed to Zhuang Long’s divorce at the card game. Then, Zhuang Long became angry for some reason and pulled her back to his room. The two of them could not argue clearly and even quarreled. Xiao Li was so angry that she hit Zhuang Long. Zhuang Long could not take it anymore and did something with Xiao Li.
After they made love, Xiao Li ran back to America to find a new man.
So when Fang Yusheng and I went to look for Xiao Li and Zhuang Long in the afternoon, the two of them were having a breakup?
Qiao Jiusheng had a strange expression.
This American knows how to play. They had to break up first.
Zhuang Qilin could roughly guess what Qiao Jiusheng was thinking. He tiptoed and patted her waist. He then said, “Sister, don’t be too surprised. You’ll get used to it.” He had long been used to this.
His father claimed that he did not love his mother, but when he heard his mother agree to the divorce, he had panicked.
It was typical.
One could not say one thing and mean another. As a husband, one should not be too similar to Zhuang Long or one would lose one’s wife.
“What are you talking about?” Fang Yusheng walked over, hugged Qiao Jiusheng’s waist, and patted Zhuang Qilin’s head.
Zhuang Qilin was not familiar with Qiao Jiusheng, but he knew Fang Yusheng.
He shouted at Fang Yusheng, “Uncle Turkey.” Zhuang Qilin cupped his fists and said, “Congratulations on your marriage. Give birth to a child soon. Bring the red packet.”
Fang Yusheng was elated.
He gave the kid a red packet on the spot.
Zhuang Qilin held the red packet and ran to find his father.
“Daddy, Uncle Turkey gave me a red packet.” On the television, Zhuang Qilin had seen a Chinese child cupping his fists at an adult and congratulating him. The child then got a red packet. Zhuang Qilin also tried this, and indeed, he really got a red packet. This was the first time Zhuang Qilin got a red packet, and he was especially excited.
Zhuang Long’s face was dark as he ignored the kid.
Zhuang Qilin was used to his father’s low pressure and was not afraid at all. He opened the red packet on the spot and took out two one yuan notes. Suddenly, he pursed his lips and could not help but softly scold Fang Yusheng, “s.h.i.+t! Stingy!”
He had never seen anyone stingier than Uncle Turkey.
The dance officially began. Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng walked onto the dance floor and started a double dance.
Qiao Jiusheng was pregnant, and she almost had a miscarriage a few days ago. Naturally, she could not do anything drastic. As for Fang Yusheng, he had been injured; one of his hands was still wrapped in bandages, so he could not do anything drastic either. The two of them casually performed a gentle double dance.
The music was gentle, and the atmosphere was warm and romantic.
Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng hugged and slowly revolved around each other under the light and everyone’s blessing. Fang Yusheng stared at Qiao Jiusheng’s face and suddenly lowered his head to say, “I want to spend tonight with Qiao Jiusheng.”
“What?” Qiao Jiusheng did not understand what he meant.
Fang Yusheng stopped and ran his fingers under Qiao Jiusheng’s neck. He gently touched the edge of her mask and said again, “I want to spend our wedding night with ‘Qiao Jiusheng.’”
Qiao Jiusheng was stunned, but then she smiled.
She nodded and said, “It has always been Qiao Jiusheng.”
She had never been Qi Yunsheng.
She was Qiao Jiusheng, the Qiao family’s Second Miss.
Fang Yusheng kissed her forehead and regretfully sighed. “Sigh, these two little fellows ruined my wedding night. Do you know: when I was young, I also fantasized about marriage. In my imagination, the wedding night was to make my wife weak and fall asleep. Now, look…”
Qiao Jiusheng snorted. “Very good. Your fantasy is very good. It’s just that between fantasy and reality, there’s still something missing.”
Fang Yusheng was confused. “What?”
Qiao Jiusheng said, “Aphrodisiac.”
Fang Yusheng instantly understood.
Is she questioning my stamina!
Fang Yusheng gritted his teeth and patted her abdomen. “Let’s try it after they come out.”
“Just try.”
The two of them left the dance floor hand in hand, leaving the dance floor to the others.
It was already nine o’clock. Fang Yusheng suggested that they go and rest. Qiao Jiusheng was also a little tired. Fang Yusheng sent her to her room and asked Aunt Jin to accompany her. He then went upstairs to call for guests. Qiao Jiusheng took off her evening gown and put on her pink silk pajamas. She lay on the bed and chatted with Aunt Jin for a while before unknowingly falling asleep.
The dance party was held on the top floor. Fang Yusheng took the elevator upstairs. The elevator stopped after rising two floors. Someone was taking the elevator.
Fang Yusheng subconsciously took a step back. At this moment, the door opened and a tall man walked in.
Fang Mu frowned when he saw Fang Yusheng in the elevator.
He stopped outside the elevator and hesitated to enter it.
Fang Yusheng suddenly smiled and said to Fang Mu, “You sang pretty well.” The song had made him grit his teeth.
Fang Mu could hear thick sarcasm and provocation in Fang Yusheng’s words.
He walked into the elevator and stood beside Fang Yusheng.
As soon as the elevator door closed, Fang Mu looked at their reflections on the elevator wall. He curled his lips and said with a faint smile, “Your medical skills are really amazing now. You can actually see again.” Fang Mu gave a fake smile and said against his heart, “Congratulations…”
Fang Yusheng calmly smiled and happily said, “Ever since I met Ah Sheng, everything has changed.” He chuckled. With a sincere smile on his face, he gratefully said, “Thank G.o.d for not giving up on me and letting me be lucky enough to meet Ah Sheng.”
Fang Mu was shocked.
“Fang Yusheng, f.u.c.k your grandpa!”
After cursing him, Fang Mu turned around and punched Fang Yusheng without any warning.
Fang Yusheng did not expect Fang Mu to have such a big reaction. This punch directly hit his head.
Fang Mu did not hold back at all. Fang Yusheng swayed and crashed into the wall of the elevator.
Fang Mu pounced on him, grabbed his collar, and punched him again. He scolded as he hit him, “You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Why don’t you f*cking die! You blind man, what right do you have! What right do you have! Huh? What right do you have!”
He had been thinking about something the entire afternoon!
Is Qi Yunsheng Qiao Jiusheng?
On one hand, his rationality told him that Xiao Sheng was already dead. This was a confirmed fact.
On the other hand, his feelings told him that Qi Yunsheng was Xiao Sheng.
Other than their faces, the two women were too similar in other aspects!
Fang Mu was afraid of knowing the truth; he did not dare to pursue it.
However, in the end, the urgent desire to know the truth still occupied his fear. He had called Jinyang City and reached Qiao Jiuyin. Only then did he learn from her that Qiao Jiusheng was still alive! At that moment, Fang Mu felt like he was struck by lightning.
When he had walked out of his room just now, he wanted to find Qiao Jiusheng at the top floor’s ball.
However, he had met Fang Yusheng on the way.
Fang Yusheng’s statement where he thanked G.o.d for his love was undoubtedly one that cut Fang Mu’s flesh with a knife.
His heart ached! He was angry! He was unwilling!
Why!
How could Fang Yusheng have her!
Fang Mu stopped his punches and tightly grabbed Fang Yusheng’s clothes. He sat on his brother’s waist and glared at him with red eyes, roaring, “You know she’s mine. Why did you touch her!
“Fang Yusheng, you can f*cking mess with anyone, but you just had to mess with her!”
After so many years, the girl he could not bear to touch had married Fang Yusheng.
Fang Mu believed that Xiao Sheng must have been forced by Fang Yusheng. Xiao Sheng loved him, and she had agreed to marry him before!
Thus, he was angry, he was crazy, and he was in pain.
Fang Yusheng had taken a beating, but he revealed a victorious smile.
“Is it very painful?” Fang Yusheng grinned until his eyes were red. He then touched the corner of his bleeding mouth with his left hand and narrowed his eyes. His eyes were filled with madness and excitement. He asked Fang Mu, “Do you feel very painful? Do you feel like you’re better off dead? Do you want to destroy everything?”
Fang Mu remained silent.
Fang Yusheng continued, “Let me tell you, when I lost my eyes and couldn’t see anything, when I picked up a pen but couldn’t draw a straight line, I was in pain too. I wanted to die too. I wanted to destroy everything too!” But he didn’t die. He survived.
“Fang Mu, is this gift enough of a surprise?”
Fang Yusheng’s last words were like a sharp knife that pierced Fang Mu’s heart.
Fang Mu’s heart twitched in pain.
The
