Chapter 194: Everyone He Cares About Is Like Her
Good on you, Fang Yusheng!
Qiao Jiuyin silently twirled the ring on her finger, her eyes darkened and lowered.
After lunch, everyone dispersed and went to play cards.
Seeing that the weather was good, Qiao Jiusheng planned to take Fang Yusheng for a spin.
“Can we go to the moat to take a walk?” Qiao Jiusheng handed the cane to Fang Yusheng.
Fang Yusheng took the cane and nodded. “Okay.” When he had been young, he had also gone to the moat to take a walk. At that time, his grandfather was still alive. Fang Yusheng remembered that small purple flowers used to grow on the dam beside the moat. They should have bloomed by this season.
He put on his sungla.s.ses and let Qiao Jiusheng hold his hand as they got into the car.
Fang Mu was playing cards in the card room on the sixth floor of the restaurant with a few friends. He had been resting the entire day. Today was Qiao Jiuyin’s day to go for her prenatal checkup. Fang Mu did not plan to accompany her. However, Qiao Jiuyin was a smart person. She took the opportunity when many people were around them and took the initiative to say to Fang Mu, “Brother Mu, accompany me to the hospital later. Today, we have to go to the hospital and listen to the fetal heartbeat.”
Qiao Jiuyin did not lower her voice, so many people heard her.
Fang Mu narrowed his eyes. He was extremely tired of her.
“Forget it, Brother Mu. You can accompany Sister-in-law. The child is the most important.” Everyone knew that Fang Mu loved ‘Qiao Jiusheng,’ so they took the initiative to end the card game.
Unfortunately, the Qiao Jiusheng in front of them was not the real Qiao Jiusheng.
Fang Mu sneered in his heart but did not show it on his face.
“Alright, then let’s meet again later.” After that, Fang Mu got up, took his suit jacket, and walked out of the restaurant with Qiao Jiuyin to the hospital.
When it was Qiao Jiuyin’s turn to see the doctor, Fang Mu’s phone rang.
It was a WeChat message from Hu Yao. She had accidentally cut her finger and sent him a photo of her finger bleeding.
[Brother Fang, come and see me, okay? My hand hurts.]
Fang Mu knew that this was a small trick of that woman, but he did not mind playing with her.
[Okay.]
Putting away his phone, Fang Mu said to Qiao Jiuyin, “I have something to do. I’ll be leaving now.”
Qiao Jiuyin had been observing Fang Mu just now. She knew that he had decided to leave after seeing a message from someone. She felt a little upset. “What do you have to do?” If he really had something to do, he would’ve gone to do it from the start and not leave halfway.
Fang Mu did not answer her and coldly looked at her.
Qiao Jiuyin forced a faint smile. She wanted to ask him to stay, so she said, “Brother Mu, can you accompany me here? You haven’t heard the child’s heartbeat yet.”
Fang Mu looked at her smile and felt vexed.
How good would it be if the person lying in front of me was really Qiao Jiusheng?
His eyes turned malicious.
“I’ll get the chauffeur to send you off later. I’ll be leaving now,” Saying that, Fang Mu turned around and left.
In the fetal heart monitor room, the other pregnant women had their mothers or husbands accompanying them. Only Qiao Jiuyin was alone.
She gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with unwillingness.
Recently, Fang Mu’s frequency of returning home had been decreasing. He often did not return home at night. Qiao Jiuyin had someone check on his whereabouts. She thought that he was sleeping around with other women outside, but she did not expect that he actually had a fixed lover.
He often accompanied that woman for the entire night.
Qiao Jiuyin had never seen that woman before, but what happened today made her decide to meet this woman, who had mesmerized Fang Mu.
***
The next day, Qiao Jiuyin went to the district where the woman called Hu Yao lived.
Early in the morning, she sat on a park bench by the lake and watched a woman dressed in a white tracksuit slowly jog along the sidewalk.
Before seeing this woman, Qiao Jiuyin had been very curious about what kind of beauty Fang Mu would be attracted to. After seeing Hu Yao in person, she finally understood everything.
This person’s side profile and back view really looks like Xiao Sheng’s.
