Until she got off the plane, Suzanne was unaware that she had exposed Qiao Jiusheng’s disguise.
When the two of them parted, Wei Xin handed Suzanne a name card and said, “You helped me answer a question that had puzzled me for a long time. Suzanne, if you need any help in the future, you can look for me.” Leaving those words, Wei Xin quickly departed with her group of assistants and parted ways with Suzanne.
Suzanne held Wei Xin’s name card with a confused expression.
I do not deserve anything. Holding Wei Xin’s big design name card, she was a little flustered.
On the way to Zhuang Long’s house, Suzanne held the name card and thought about it over and over again. However, she still felt uneasy. In the end, she took out her phone and pressed Fang Yusheng’s home number.
Aunt Jin answered the call. Upon hearing that the call was from Suzanne, Aunt Jin immediately called Qiao Jiusheng over.
Qiao Jiusheng took the phone and heard Suzanne say, “I might’ve unintentionally made a mistake.”
“What?” Qiao Jiusheng was confused.
Suzanne then told Qiao Jiusheng everything that had happened on the plane.
When Qiao Jiusheng heard it all, she only said, “It’s fine! Just accept her name card if she gives it to you. If you have nothing to wear in the future, look for her.” Qiao Jiusheng calmly hung up the phone. She then turned around. When she saw her reflection in the mirror on the wall, she suddenly cowered.
It’s over!
The lie has been exposed!
When Wei Xin returns, I would definitely be unlucky.

On the day of the prenatal checkup, Qiao Jiuyin wore a down jacket and went to a private hospital with Fang Mu.
The two of them hung up the VIP consultation number. It was their turn to enter soon.
The VIP ultrasound room allowed family members to accompany pregnant women. As Qiao Jiuyin lay on the bed, Fang Mu stood at the side. The ultrasound camera moved around Qiao Jiuyin’s abdomen. Fang Mu stared at the moving scene on the screen and subconsciously widened his eyes.
“This is the child’s limbs,” the doctor in charge of the ultrasound said to Fang Mu.
Fang Mu looked at the display. He did not dare to breathe too loudly.
“This is the baby’s head. The children are very healthy and well-developed.”
Fang Mu only noticed the children’s movements and their forms in the uterus. Qiao Jiuyin, who was lying down, asked, “Can you tell the babies’ genders now?”
The doctor hesitated for a moment, then said, “Due to its position, one baby’s gender is temporarily unclear. The other is a boy.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiuyin heaved a sigh of relief.
Fang Mu touched Qiao Jiuyin’s hair and said with a straight face, “Why are you asking this? Boys and girls are the same.”
Qiao Jiuyin felt her heart sweeten, but she said, “You can prepare a small outfit for them after asking.”
Fang Mu’s heart warmed at the thought of that scene.
“Then we’ll buy it this afternoon.”
“The baby will be born in the summer. It’s winter now, and the clothes we buy now won’t be suitable.”
“Then we can buy some toys and other things.”
Qiao Jiuyin was overjoyed. “Okay.”
After leaving the hospital, the two of them went to a large mall to buy items for mothers and infants. When choosing the prams, Fang Mu thought that he should prepare a pink one and a blue one. Qiao Jiuyin said, “It’s up to you.” Even if they aren’t suitable, we can still buy them again after the babies are born.
Fang Mu asked the sales assistant to take out a pink pram. He then squatted in the corner and studied it. Qiao Jiuyin suddenly said, “I’m going out for a while.”
Fang Yusheng looked up and asked, “Where to?”
“To the bathroom.”
“Okay.”
Qiao Jiuyin carried her bag and left the baby shop.
Fang Mu squatted on the ground and studied the pram for a while. He imagined his daughter sitting in the pram and instantly became happy. So, he immediately called over the salesperson and bought two prams of the same color. As he held the invoice, Fang Mu realized that Qiao Jiuyin had yet to return. Worried that something had happened to her, he left the prams and went to the washroom.
Fang Mu waited outside the washroom for a while, but Qiao Jiuyin still did not come out. He was worried, so he asked an unfamiliar lady to go in and remind Qiao Jiuyin. Who knew that after the lady went in, she quickly came out again and told him, “Sir, your wife is not inside.”
Fang Mu narrowed his eyes and thanked the lady before leaving.
Fang Mu reached the safe exit of the mall. He took a few steps forward, but suddenly, he thought of something and stopped. Pulling open a heavy door, he walked in. When he reached the corner of the stairs, he vaguely heard a person scolding another person above him.
Fang Mu frowned and looked up. He could tell that one of the voices belonged to Qiao Jiuyin.
He took a few steps up the stairs and saw Qiao Jiuyin standing with her back facing him. Beside her was a man.
The man looked very young, about 23 or 24 years old. He was dressed in a black down jacket and blue jeans. The man had grabbed Qiao Jiuyin’s hand and seemed to be a little agitated. Qiao Jiuyin wanted to shake his hand off, but she could not.
Fang Mu was furious.
This freak again!
Fang Mu knew this pervert.
About two years ago, a boy from Binjiang University’s art department had suddenly launched a fierce pursuit of Qiao Jiuyin. The boy was called Li Kui. His infatuation with Qiao Jiuyin could no longer be described with the word “like” or “love.” Calling it craziness, obsession, or possession was better.
Once, a rumor had spread in the university that Li Kui’s dormitory was filled with Qiao Jiuyin’s portraits. His roommate had accidentally splashed water on one of these portraits. Li Kui had beaten him in a fit of anger and sent him into the hospital.
This person was really strange. When he had heard Qiao Jiusheng mention him in the past, Fang Mu had especially paid attention to him.
Who would have thought that after Qiao Jiuyin died, he would start pestering Xiao Sheng?
Fang Mu was about to walk upstairs to beat up that punk when he suddenly heard him shout at Qiao Jiuyin, “Ah Yin, turn around. If Fang Mu finds out the truth, you won’t have a good ending!”
Fang Mu slowly retracted his foot.
He stood rooted to the ground in a daze, his face filled with shock.
Ah… Ah Yin?
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Qiao Jiuyin angrily scolded Li Kui. “Li Kui, you’ve got the wrong person. I’m not my sister! Look carefully! I’m Qiao Jiusheng!” Facing this foolish boy who had pestered her for more than two years, Qiao Jiuyin felt an indescribable disgust.
It had already been a long time since she had separated from Fang Mu. If she did not go back soon and Fang Mu found out, it would be terrible.
However, Li Kui was unwilling to let her go. He grabbed her wrist even more tightly, trying hard to prove that he could not be mistaken. He said, “Ah Yin, stop denying it. I’ve drawn you countless times. Perhaps, others can’t tell you apart from your sister, but I’m different! I can see your outline and figure at a glance. Even if you deliberately dress like your sister and imitate her voice and walking posture, you can’t deceive me!”
Hearing his words, Qiao Jiuyin was flustered. She wanted to leave even more urgently. “Let go of me! I don’t know what you’re talking about!” She then raised her leg and kicked Li Kui’s groin.
Li Kui was kicked in his “lifeline,” and he abruptly retreated.
Qiao Jiuyin turned around. She was about to run when the boy behind her suddenly said something. Just one sentence made Qiao Jiuyin stop in her tracks in shock.
He said, “Ah Yin, I was also at the scene on the day of the accident.”
