However, I seem to have heard the name Wei Shuyi somewhere before.
Fang Yusheng thought about it and remembered that a while ago, in the dream he had about Ah Sheng growing old, there had been a nursing home. The nursing home’s dean seemed to be called Wei Shuyi. Fang Yusheng frowned. Why would I dream of someone I have never seen or even heard of?
A sense of absurdity sprouted in Fang Yusheng’s heart.
But soon, he suppressed it again.
He nodded at Wei Shuyi and smiled as he said, “Thank you, Older Brother Wei.”
Wei Shuyi: “…”
Wei Shuyi could not help but remind Fang Yusheng, “Mr. Fang, I’m only 28 years old.” He would be 29 only after two months. He was younger than Fang Yusheng by a year.
So?
Fang Yusheng thought: Are you trying to say that you’re fresh meat while I’m an old piece of bacon?
“Oh, sorry. I can’t see,” Fang Yusheng apologized without any sincerity.
Wei Shuyi understood.
Qiao Jiusheng was not stupid. She could sense the jealousy in Fang Yusheng’s words.
Fang Yusheng is hostile to Wei Shuyi!
Qiao Jiusheng found an excuse and bade Wei Shuyi farewell. She then brought Fang Yusheng home.
When they reached home, Aunt Jin pulled Qiao Jiusheng into the dining room. As they walked, she said, “The chicken has been stewed long ago. Madam, come and drink it quickly. I’ll heat it up for you.”
Aunt Jin was a rash person. Even Fang Yusheng did not dare to disobey her orders, let alone Qiao Jiusheng.
Qiao Jiusheng, who was already full, was forced to drink another bowl of old hen soup.
When Aunt Jin saw her obediently drinking the soup, she smiled so widely that her eyes could not be seen. As she cleaned the dishes, she said, “Young Master Yusheng is really considerate to you, Madam. When I was married, I had to work no matter how uncomfortable I was. Even after giving birth, I had to wash my clothes and cook for my house during the first month of pregnancy. How is it, Madam?”
Aunt Jin then looked at Qiao Jiusheng and meaningfully said, “Madam, Young Master Yusheng is really good to you.”
Hearing Aunt Jin’s words, Qiao Jiusheng strangely fell silent.
She looked up and asked, “How do you know that I’m feeling unwell?”
Aunt Jin: “…” She subconsciously glanced at the bedsheets hanging in the backyard.
When she had gone to tidy up the room in the morning, she was pleasantly surprised to see a few traces of blood and other marks on the bedsheets.
Qiao Jiusheng looked over and saw the plain bedsheets fluttering in the wind. A hint of shyness and embarrassment appeared on her face. The single bedsheets in the house had to be cleaned every two days. This morning, she had woken up after Fang Yusheng. The bedsheets were cleaned up by the diligent Aunt Jin before Qiao Jiusheng could tidy them up.
When Qiao Jiusheng thought of the marks on the bedsheets, her face turned hot.
“I… I’m tired. I’m going to rest.” She lowered her head and went upstairs, her ears still red.
Qiao Jiusheng pushed open the door and walked around the screen. She saw Fang Yusheng sitting on a chair by the window with a cup of tea in front of him. He was holding her wallet in his hand. Qiao Jiusheng quickly walked over to snatch back her wallet and said, “I always knew that you were stingy, but I didn’t know that you had a hobby of stealing money.” She was just joking.
Fang Yusheng shook his head and took a sip of tea. He heard Qiao Jiusheng ask, “Why did you put your photo in my wallet?” Qiao Jiusheng stared at the photo in her wallet, feeling puzzled.
The photo was probably taken two years ago. At that time, Fang Yusheng’s hair was very long. He did not have a braid, and his hair was gently draped over his shoulders. He was dressed in a beige cotton linen shirt and was sitting by the beach. His green eyes were wide open, and his expression was solemn.
Qiao Jiusheng secretly sighed. He is really handsome.
After sighing, she immediately put on a fierce expression and waited for Fang Yusheng to speak. She then educated him, “Fang Yusheng, didn’t your father tell you to not touch other people’s belongings?”
Fang Yusheng honestly answered, “No! He only taught me how to derail a marriage.” He looked up, smiled, and asked her, “Do you want me to learn?”
Qiao Jiusheng was speechless.
