Qiao Jiusheng moved in his arms and fell asleep easily.
The next morning, Qiao Jiusheng washed her face, brushed her teeth, and applied lotion on her face. She patted her face a few times before remembering that there seemed to be a message she did not read last night. Qiao Jiusheng quickly ended her skincare work and ran to find her phone. She turned it on and saw that it was from Fang Yuqing.
Qiao Jiusheng sat by the bed and read Fang Yuqing’s message carefully.
Qingqing—
Sister-in-law, are you asleep?
Sorry to disturb you so late at night. I’m really puzzled about something and want to ask you. You’re more experienced, so analyze it for me.
There was a long description below. Fang Yuqing told Qiao Jiusheng everything about her and Jiang Wei. After saying that, she asked…
What do you think he meant?
Qiao Jiusheng was shocked.
What did he mean?
He wanted to woo you!
He likes you!
Qiao Jiusheng wanted to pry open Fang Yuqing’s brain to see if it was filled with water or tofu dregs. It was such an obvious matter, yet she could not sense it! Qiao Jiusheng was a little lazy in the morning, so she directly sent a voice message to tell Fang Yuqing clearly that Jiang Wei liked her.
Fang Yuqing was actually not asleep. Just as Qiao Jiusheng sent the message, Fang Yuqing replied.
Qingqing: [He likes me?]
Qingqing: [That’s impossible.]
Night Song: [Why not? You’re so beautiful. If I were a man, I would like you too.]
Qingqing: [Sister-in-law, stop joking. I’m serious.]
Qingqing: [If he liked me, he would have shown it before. But we’ve known each other for so many years, and we’ve never even held hands before. How can there be someone he likes so much…]
Upon seeing this message, Qiao Jiusheng touched her chin and replied: [He doesn’t like you? Why did he bring roses to see you? Could it be that someone was kind enough to do a promotional event on the streets and gave roses to handsome people? He felt that it was a waste to throw them away, so he gave them to you?]
Night Song: [Do you believe in such a good thing? If there is, ask Jiang Wei where he received the roses that day. I’m so good-looking. I’ll go for a walk too. Perhaps I can open a rose garden.]
Qingqing: […]
Qingqing: [I keep feeling that he will like me. This is a little unbelievable.]
Qiao Jiusheng stared at Fang Yuqing’s last sentence and was silent for a long time.
Why was this silly girl so unconfident?
Night Song: [You’re very good. Jiang Wei has good taste. Just based on his actions back then, I think very highly of this young man. If you can get together with him, it will be fate.] Qiao Jiusheng actually agreed with the two of them being together.
However, she could not control their feelings. She could only look forward to it.
After a while, Fang Yuqing replied: [I understand. Thank you, Sister-in-law.]
Night Song: [Be good. I should go put on makeup.]
She had to go to work today, so Qiao Jiusheng could not go out without putting on makeup. To Qiao Jiusheng, makeup was not coquettish, but a lifestyle attitude. She was serious about life and respected others. Qiao Jiusheng was putting on eyeliner when Fang Yusheng entered with his phone.
He entered the house and glanced at Qiao Jiusheng before walking to the wooden table outside the screen and sitting down.
He held his phone and typed.
Qiao Jiusheng put on her makeup and walked over to take a look. She saw Fang Yusheng chatting with his bad friends in the OK group.
An: [So will it really succeed?]
Zhuang Long: [About 70%.]
Suzanne: [How long will it take to succeed?]
Ji Yinbing: [That’s hard to say. It might be half a year or a lifetime.]
Zhuang Long: [It doesn’t have to be forever. Even if you don’t believe in yourself, you have to believe in me, right?]
Yan Nuo: [The sooner the better.]
Zhuang Long: [Boss Yan, I’m poor. Are you investing?]
An: [I’m poor too, Boss Yan. I have a child and a wife. Aren’t you going to help me?]
Everyone in the group was crying.
Yan Nuo: [Shut up, An. How much do you want @ Zhuang Long?]
Zhuang Long: [Not much, just 6.789 billion…]
Suzanne: [Ha!]
An: [Ha!]
Yan Nuo: [… I’ll consider it.]
Fang Yusheng scolded, “Nouveau riche!”
Qiao Jiusheng was confused. She asked Fang Yusheng, “What are you guys talking about?”
Fang Yusheng stared at the phone’s chat interface and explained to Qiao Jiusheng, “Zhuang Long and Yinbing are researching the simulation of the real person’s uterus. They said that they have a 70% chance of successfully developing it.”
Qiao Jiusheng was shocked by this news.
“Are you serious?”
“Of course.” Fang Yusheng was also proud of his friends. “I think Yan Nuo is really planning to invest a few hundred million yuan. That won’t do. If this research and development is successful, the income will be very scary.” Fang Yusheng touched his chin and looked up to ask Qiao Jiusheng, “Do you think I should invest in this research and development project?”
Without waiting for Qiao Jiusheng to answer, Fang Yusheng said, “No, I have to go to the bank.”
“What?”
Fang Yusheng said, “Transfer the money!”
He transferred the money in his own name. The bank would definitely investigate his motive for transferring the money. He had to go to the bank personally. Qiao Jiusheng was a little surprised to see Fang Yusheng leave so easily. She chased after him and asked Fang Yusheng, “How much do you plan to invest?”
Fang Yusheng said, “200 million?”
“You have that much cash?”
Fang Yusheng added, “Aren’t you looking down on your man?”
Fang Yusheng went to the bank just like that. Qiao Jiusheng did not stop him. Fang Yusheng had good taste. If he said that this investment could make money, it would definitely make money. Fang Yusheng went to the bank in the morning and transferred the money without calling Zhuang Long.
Zhuang Long had a butler who was in charge of finance. This afternoon, he came out of the laboratory and was about to return to the dining room to eat. Just as he sat down, he saw the butler walking over. The butler greeted him respectfully. Seeing that Zhuang Long had returned from his run, he heard the butler say, “Sir, you received a huge sum of money in your personal account today.”
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Long said that he understood and took out his phone to log in.
In the group—
Zhuang Long: [Which philanthropist transferred money to me? Thank you for the tip.]
An: [Me.]
Zhuang Long: [Aren’t you afraid that the miser will lose all his feathers, lose all his blood, and never return?] Zhuang Long sent a voice message. His tone was as if he had seen a ghost.
Fang Yusheng: [It’s okay. Your brain is worth more than 200 million yuan. You won’t lose money.]
Zhuang Long: [… What you say makes sense.]
After chatting with Fang Yusheng for a while more, Zhuang Long logged off when he saw Ji Yinbing.
Seeing that there seemed to be a blood mark on Ji Yinbing’s cheek, Zhuang Long narrowed his eyes and asked her, “Why are you injured?”
Ji Yinbing said, “In the apartment next door, a couple was fighting. The child couldn’t take it anymore and almost went crazy. I saved her from the house, but she screamed and hit her. Her nails scratched me.” Ji Yinbing sat down. Zhuang Long asked the chef to add a set of cutlery and got someone to find the first-aid kit.
He personally disinfected Ji Yinbing’s face and frowned. “Don’t interfere in such matters in the future.”
