Chapter 848: Activating Sleepyhead Mode
Qiao Jiusheng held her phone and recorded the scene. In the video, Chi Baoguang was casually holding a high-quality iron spoon. As he spoke, he said, “Friend, which gang are you from? Let’s meet another day to talk?” With that, he casually folded the spoon, and the thick handle bent just like that.
Bent…
Qiao Jiusheng was speechless.
She heard herself swallow.
Fang Yusheng also glanced over from afar. His pupils constricted, as if he was in awe. After their reunion, he had put on a great show, and had not been killed by Chi Baoguang. Indeed, the relations.h.i.+p between father and son was deep.
Chi Baoguang uploaded the video to Beauty Lisa’s homepage.
The fans who had finished watching the video left comments—
Little Yellow Duck: Oh my G.o.d! What kind of G.o.d is this? @Lover’s Not Full yet. Do you want to go on a date?
Zombies Are Also Afraid of the Cold: My uncle, you’re amazing. What a blatant threat…
Carrots Aren’t Good: I’m the only one who noticed that the watch on Uncle’s hand is worth 170,000 yuan.
...
…
Her lover made people tremble in fear, not daring to take the blow.
Only then did Qiao Jiusheng use her phone to log into Beauty Lisa’s Weibo account. She opened the trending replies and saw that the photos Chi Baoguang had replied to previously were rows of bank cards. Qiao Jiusheng did not know how much money was in the bank cards, but she knew that anyone who could apply for such a bank card had to have at least nine digits in savings.
Qiao Jiusheng felt that these bank cards looked a little familiar. She took a closer look. Wasn’t this Fang Yusheng’s bank card?
Fang Yusheng knew what Qiao Jiusheng was thinking. He lowered his head and whispered into her ear, “I’m using this to give him face.”
Qiao Jiusheng couldn’t help but laugh.
She especially liked the relations.h.i.+p between her father-in-law and mother-in-law. Just looking at it made her envious.
Lisa asked them to stay the night. Qiao Jiusheng thought that she had a lot of things to do, so she declined. They only returned to her house at around ten o’clock. While they were in New York, Aunt Jin had also returned to her hometown. Knowing that they would be back today, Aunt Jin also expressed that she would come over tomorrow morning.
There was no one at home either, but Qi Bufan had already hired someone to clean the house. Once he returned, he could stay there directly.
When they arrived, Qi Bufan had yet to leave. His car was still parked by the lake. Chi Baoguang sent them home, then turned the car around and drove home.
Fang Yusheng reminded Chi Baoguang in a respectful tone, “Remember to call us when you get home.” He had yet to recover from the shock of seeing Chi Baoguang intimidate his lover. When he spoke, his att.i.tude naturally had to be more humble.
“Okay.”
After watching Qi Bufan leave, the four of them walked into the house.
Qi Bufan was standing in the courtyard, teasing the two canaries. Seeing them return, he hung the canaries on the crabapple tree and walked over. He opened his arms and picked up Fang Zikai and Fang Zicheng.
“You’re back. It’s been a month since we last met. Did you miss me?”
Fang Zicheng nodded, admitting it.
Fang Zikai said with a smile, “I missed you so much. You didn’t even call me.”
Qi Bufan scolded Fang Zikai.
Qiao Jiusheng seemed to be a little carsick. She felt a little uncomfortable after getting out of the car. Fang Yusheng poured a gla.s.s of water for Qiao Jiusheng and watched her drink it. Only then did he ask Qi Bufan, “Has the training base been well recently?”
“Yes, not bad. According to you, I recruited another batch of female instructors some time ago. Needless to say, having a female instructor makes things more convenient. In the past, when female students came to train, it wasn’t convenient for us men to guide them either. Now, it’s quite good.”
“I see.”
Qiao Jiusheng drank some water and suddenly asked Qi Bufan, “Chukong will be in his fourth year of university, right? Where does she plan to be an intern?”
Qi Bufan’s expression froze.
Qiao Jiusheng knew that there was a conflict between Qi Bufan and Dai Chukong. Perhaps she shouldn’t be the one saying this, but Qi Bufan was also their family. There were some things Qiao Jiusheng had to say. “Bufan, at the end of the day, you’re Chukong’s only family. Do you really plan to cut off all contact with her?”
Qi Bufan was a little frustrated. His brow was furrowed tightly, and there was a hint of distress on his serious face.
“It’s not that I want to cut off all contact with her.” He sighed. The thought of Dai Chukong gave him a headache. “She’s the one who’s ignoring me. I’ve tried calling her, but she never answers. Some time ago, I went to her school to look for her, but she avoided me as well.” They clearly lived in the same city. They had once been so close, but now, they had not seen each other for years.
Her heart ached.
Hearing this, Qiao Jiusheng also felt troubled.
“When that child grows older, she might understand your good intentions.”
“Hopefully.”
Qi Bufan didn’t want to talk about these things anymore. He was a little frustrated and left not long after. After he left, Qiao Jiusheng said, “I’m so tired. I have to rest. Yusheng, please bathe Kai Kai and the others.” As Qiao Jiusheng spoke, she yawned.
Fang Yusheng naturally had no objections. Seeing that Qiao Jiusheng was especially sleepy, he said, “After you got off the plane, didn’t you sleep at Mom’s place for a while in the afternoon? Why are you so sleepy?”
“The flight must have been too tiring.”
Qiao Jiusheng went to her room.
Only then did Fang Yusheng return to his room with the two children.
Fang Zicheng had long learned how to bathe himself. In the beginning, he couldn’t wash himself properly, but now, he could already complete the process of bathing very well. Compared to his brother, Fang Zikai was slightly inferior, but he was also trying hard to wash his hands himself. However, when it was time to wash his back, he needed Fang Yusheng’s help.
Fang Yusheng adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner. When the two little fellows laid down, he was about to tell a story when he heard Fang Zicheng say, “Dad, can you not prioritize filial piety tonight…”
Fang Yusheng was stunned for a moment before agreeing.
He told them another story. This story was about foxes and crows.
After he was done, he asked the two children, “What does this story tell us? Cheng Cheng, you’re the older brother. Tell us first.”
Fang Zicheng thought for a while before giving his opinion. “Don’t be smug because of other people’s praise.”
“Yes, what about Zikai?”
Fang Zikai thought for a while before saying, “A fox is a man, and a crow is a woman. A fox’s words are a man’s sweet words. Therefore, a man’s sweet words can’t be trusted.”
Fang Yusheng frowned. “Where did you hear all this?”
Fang Zikai said, “That’s what everyone says on television.”
Fang Yusheng’s handsome face darkened. He stood up, turned off the lights, and let them sleep. When he closed the door, he said to Fang Zikai, “From tomorrow onwards, you’re not allowed to watch any television series.”
Fang Zikai was speechless.
At the side, Fang Zicheng couldn’t help but curse. “Idiot!”
…
Fang Yusheng returned to his room and was surprised to see Qiao Jiusheng asleep.
Was she really asleep?
Qiao Jiusheng was sleeping on her side. Fang Yusheng walked around her and looked down at her. Qiao Jiusheng had really fallen asleep, and seemed to be sleeping soundly. “How useless. You’re already so tired from the flight.” Although he said that, Fang Yusheng’s tone was doting.
After a good night’s sleep, Fang Yusheng woke up the next morning. Qiao Jiusheng was already up.
He tidied up and went to the front room. He saw Auntie Jin returning with many bags. He spoke to Auntie Jin for a while, but did not see Qiao Jiusheng. He asked Auntie Jin, “Auntie Jin, have you seen Ah Sheng?”
