The family of four walked home. Fang Yusheng asked them how their breakfast tasted. Fang Zikai said that it was delicious. Fang Zicheng thought about it and said, “It’s quite good.”
Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng took a shower, changed their clothes, carried breakfast, and set off for the aquarium with the children.
Fang Yusheng was in charge of driving while Qiao Jiusheng sat in the front passenger seat. She ate some food before personally feeding Fang Yusheng. Qiao Jiusheng handed a piece of fruit to Fang Yusheng, who bit the yellow peach and bit Qiao Jiusheng’s finger.
Qiao Jiusheng raised her eyebrows and touched Fang Yusheng’s lips with her finger.
Fang Yusheng’s eyes darkened slightly. He tilted his head and looked at Qiao Jiusheng. He said, “Just you wait.”
Qiao Jiusheng puffed up her chest and snorted. “Who’s afraid?”
The two little fellows could not understand the deep conversation between adults.
Fang Zikai thought of the girl he had seen in the shop just now and suddenly asked Qiao Jiusheng, “Mom, why didn’t you give birth to a sister for us?”
Qiao Jiusheng was stunned by Fang Zikai’s question.
She said, “You have to ask your father this question.”
Fang Zikai looked at his father.
Fang Yusheng’s expression was a little unnatural.
He thought of the scar on Qiao Jiusheng’s abdomen. After so many years, no matter how much scar removal ointment was used, the wound on Qiao Jiusheng’s abdomen still existed, but it had faded a little. At the thought that giving birth was so scary, Fang Yusheng’s expression darkened.
He said, “You won’t have a sister.”
Fang Zikai said, “But it’s good to have a sister. I really want a sister.”
He said, “I’ve already thought of a name. It’s called Baozhu.” Fang Zikai tilted his head and said innocently, “She will be the big treasure of our family.”
Qiao Jiusheng fantasized about that scene and was a little tempted.
She turned to look at Fang Yusheng. Just as she called out to him, Fang Yusheng immediately said, “No.”
Qiao Jiusheng was speechless.
Fang Zicheng then said, “There are risks in giving birth. It’s good if people don’t give birth.”
Fang Zikai did not understand those things. He gave his mother an idea. He said, “Mom, if Dad doesn’t want to have a child, you can give birth. Anyway, you’re the one who will be pregnant again.”
Qiao Jiusheng was speechless after hearing the child talk. How could Qiao Jiusheng do it alone? She told Fang Zikai, “Giving birth requires both a man and a woman. I can’t give birth alone.”
“…Oh.” Fang Zikai was a little disappointed.
He thought of something and suddenly said, “You can give birth with Godfather! Godfather is good-looking. If you give birth with him, Sister will definitely be very cute!”
The godfather Fang Zikai was referring to was none other than Zhuang Long.
The car suddenly fell silent.
Qiao Jiusheng could clearly feel a chill coming from Fang Yusheng, who was beside her. She held in her laughter and tilted her head to look at Fang Yusheng. Fang Yusheng looked at the front of the car with a deep gaze, his eyes filled with anger.
Damn it!
Fang Yusheng could not take it anymore and stopped the car.
He turned back, narrowed his eyes, and said to Fang Zikai in a dangerous tone, “When you get back today, hand over all the chocolate you hid under the bed and in the cabinet. From now on, you won’t have any pocket money. You can’t buy souvenirs when you go to the aquarium today.”
Fang Zikai’s eyes widened suddenly. “Why!” He was furious. “What did I do wrong!”
The foolish him did not realize what a bold and scary suggestion he had given Qiao Jiusheng just now.
“You can’t be so cruel! Aunt Bingbing bought those chocolates for us! I deserve my pocket money. You can’t treat me like this!”
Fang Yusheng smiled cruelly and said, “See if I can do that to you.”
Fang Zikai widened his eyes and was about to cry.
Fang Zicheng despised the two of them for being noisy, so he turned his head to look out of the window. When Qiao Jiusheng heard their conversation, she could not help but hold her forehead and laugh. The child was too young and things could not be explained to him. Qiao Jiusheng could only persuade Fang Yusheng and say, “Why lower yourself to the child’s level? It’s not wrong for him to want a sister.”
Fang Yusheng glanced at her and snorted. He said, “He’s going to overturn the heavens.”
“Ha.” Qiao Jiusheng sneered.
She was actually angry.
She really wanted a daughter, but Fang Yusheng always disagreed. Her eyes flashed, and Qiao Jiusheng thought of something and fell silent again. Only when they reached the aquarium did the family smile again. Although Fang Yusheng said that he would not buy memorabilia for Fang Zikai, when they really arrived at the aquarium’s gift shop, Fang Yusheng could not bear to see Fang Zikai staring at the little dolphin and bought one for him.
Fang Zikai hugged the little dolphin and called Fang Yusheng his father sweetly.
Fang Yusheng’s heart softened.
What could he do? Even if he had to kneel down, he had to treat him like an ancestor.
The aquarium was quite big, and they played for nearly three hours before they had enough. They ate in the dining room inside the aquarium at noon, and in the afternoon, they took a walk in the park. It was almost dark before they went home. After playing for a day, the brothers were a little tired after taking a shower.
Fang Yusheng had recently taken on a business deal. He wanted to help a weapons manufacturing company design a new assault dagger. He locked himself in his office and was obsessed with designing. When Fang Yusheng entered the workroom, he usually stayed for five to six hours.
Qiao Jiusheng took a shower and video chatted with Wei Xin for a while.
After hanging up the video call, she thought of something and quickly jumped out of bed to open the bedside table. Qiao Jiusheng opened the cabinet, which was filled with rows of condoms. She and Fang Yusheng had the habit of collecting all kinds of condoms. The number of condoms was enough for a few years.
Qiao Jiusheng ran downstairs and asked for a needle from Auntie Jin. She ran back to her room and spent a few minutes poking holes in all the condoms.
One day, she would be pregnant.
Although she had let Fang Yusheng down by doing this, Qiao Jiusheng really wanted a child. Although it was not easy to have a child, at the thought that she might have a daughter in the future, everything was worth it. Fang Yusheng actually loved children very much. He had never wanted a child because he was worried that something would happen to Qiao Jiusheng.
Qiao Jiusheng’s health was very good, so she could have another child.
After doing all this, Qiao Jiusheng returned the needle to Aunt Jin.
In the middle of the night, Fang Yusheng came out of the studio. He turned on the smallest lamp and walked to the bed. He stared at Qiao Jiusheng’s sleeping face and fell into deep thought. Even Qiao Jiusheng did not know that every part of the house was installed with pinhole cameras, including the room.
Fang Yusheng saw Qiao Jiusheng’s small movements clearly tonight.
His fingers touched Qiao Jiusheng’s hair with a complicated gaze.
Qiao Jiusheng was woken up. She turned over and rolled into Fang Yusheng’s arms. “Yusheng…” Qiao Jiusheng hugged Fang Yusheng’s waist and rubbed her head on his legs. Fang Yusheng’s leg muscles were filled with strength, and they were quite comfortable to hold on to.
