Fang Yuqing had not planned to see Jiang Wei tonight.
She was wearing a white sweater and black pants and was dressed quite casually. She wanted to see Jiang Wei, and Fang Yuqing wanted to change her clothes. It was a little far to go home, so she found Qiao Jiusheng and told her about her difficulties.
“I have many new clothes in my cabinet, all of which I like but can’t wear. Pick what you like to wear.” After Qiao Jiusheng got pregnant, she still liked to shop. When she saw clothes she liked, she still had to buy them.
She could not wear those clothes when she was pregnant, but she could still wear them next year.
Although there were new designs next year, they still had to buy them. However, women, especially rich women, might not buy clothes to wear. Buying them and hanging them in the cabinet was also something that made them happy.
Upon hearing Qiao Jiusheng’s words, Fang Yuqing opened her closet and chose a set of clothes she liked.
“Mom, Brother, Jiang Wei wants to bring me out to play. I’m going.”
Jiang Wei carried his bag and did not forget to inform Xu Pingfei and the rest before leaving.
It felt really good to tell her family that she was going on a date with her boyfriend.
Xu Pingfei and Fang Yu’an frowned at the same time and said, “It’s quite late. Are you really going?” As adults, no one could guarantee what would happen if they stayed together in the middle of the night. Fang Yu’an asked Fang Yuqing meaningfully, “Do you want to go?”
Fang Yuqing naturally understood what Fang Yu’an meant.
She nodded and said, “I want to go.”
Wanting to play was secondary. The main reason was to see Jiang Wei.
Hearing this, what else could Fang Yu’an say?
“Go on.”
“Okay.”
She left with her bag.
Fang Yusheng stared at Fang Yuqing’s back and smiled. He said, “Girls really can’t be kept when they’re older.”
Chi Baoguang said, “Twenty years later, Ranran won’t stay either.”
Fang Yusheng’s gaze turned cold. He glanced at Chi Baoguang and said expressionlessly, “I’ll let you know that even if a son grows up, he won’t be kept.”
Chi Baoguang was a little threatened and stopped talking.
“Let’s go sing?” Every new year, they would play mahjong. Xu Pingfei felt tired of it and wanted to go to the KTV to sing this year. The others were not in high spirits, especially Liu Yu and her husband, who missed their son who was living poorly in prison alone.
“Let’s not go. I’m a little tired. We’ll go back first.” Liu Yu could not stand this beautiful scene of a harmonious family. Looking at their smiles, she thought of her children and felt especially terrible.
Fang Pingjun agreed with his wife. “Since Liu Yu is tired, Yusheng, let’s go back first. Your aunt hasn’t been feeling well recently and can’t stay up late. I’ll send her back first.”
Fang Yusheng frowned and remained silent.
Fang Ping stood up and Liu Yu followed him. On the other hand, Fang Yupei hesitated, not knowing if she should leave or leave. The couple glanced at Fang Yupei. Fang Yupei was stunned. Her parents had left, so it would be awkward for her to stay.
Hence, Fang Yupei stood up as well.
She looked around at everyone before saying, “Uncle Chi, Auntie, Brother Yusheng, Brother Yu’an, Aunt Xu, I’ve arranged with my friends to go to the Four Cards Tower square for the New Year. I’m leaving too.”
Fang Yupei gritted her teeth. In order to hide her embarrassment, she said Happy New Year to them.
Seeing that Fang Yupei was about to leave, Xu Pingfei quickly took out the red packet she had prepared and gave it to Fang Yupei.
Fang Yupei did not reject it and accepted it.
Although Xu Pingfei and Fang Pingjue were already divorced, she was still Fang Yupei’s aunt for a few years. Although Fang Yupei used to have bad thoughts and had a bad relationship with her daughter, it had already become a habit to give Fang Yupei red packets during the New Year.
Lisa also took out the red packet she had prepared and handed it to Fang Yupei.
“Thank you, Auntie.”
Fang Yupei followed Fang Pingjun and the rest.
After they left, Xu Pingfei saw that the atmosphere was a little silent, so she said to Fang Yusheng, “Many things have happened to your uncle’s family this year. During this reunion festival, after what happened to the child, as parents, I feel terrible…”
“Yusheng, don’t be angry.”
Fang Yusheng chuckled and shook his head. He said, “I understand. I’m also a parent.”
He was not angry.
However, he could tell that Fang Pingjun’s family had a deep prejudice against his family. He did not care. Even if time went back, Fang Yusheng would still insist on his initial choice regarding Fang Yukang.
Whose child was not a child that was loved?
He should pay with his life for killing someone else’s child.
Fang Yusheng thought of Qiao Jiusheng accompanying the child alone in her room and was bored, so he went to her room to accompany her. Qiao Jiusheng downloaded the mahjong app and invited Fang Yusheng to accompany her. Coincidentally, Yan Nuo and Ji Yinbing had also come to Junyang City for the New Year this year.
The two of them stayed over at the Ji family’s house tonight. They were a little bored, so the four of them booked a room and played mahjong.
They turned on the voice message and chatted as they played cards.
Yan Nuo said, “I went back to America with Yinbing on the sixth day of the New Year. I remember that Cheng Cheng and the rest had their birthday on the fifth day of the New Year, right? In addition, I haven’t seen the little princess yet. We came to your house on the fifth day of the New Year.”
Another cold voice sounded on the phone. It was Ji Yinbing’s voice. “I want to see your Ranran.”
“Come on.”
Fang Yusheng said, “You can’t be empty-handed.”
Yan Nuo: “Can you not be so realistic?”
Fang Yusheng: “Adults have to recognize reality.”
Qiao Jiusheng said, “Welcome. Don’t listen to Fang Yusheng.”
Qiao Jiusheng added, “I won’t be returning to my maiden home in Junyang City this year because of my confinement. My brother and the rest are coming to Binjiang City on the second day of the Lunar New Year and will leave on the fourth. Are you coming on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year? Aren’t you coming early?”
Ji Yinbing thought about it and said, “Forget it, let Sister Qing and the rest go first. We still have relatives to see.”
“Alright then.”
The round was over and Yan Nuo won.
After the new game started, the few of them casually chatted for a while. For some reason, it involved Zhuang Long and Xiao Li. Ji Yinbing said, “Xiao Li is pregnant. I heard it’s another boy.”
Fang Yusheng said, “Zhuang Long has a problem. If he wants a daughter, he has to look at his character.”
Yan Nuo sneered. “Nonsense.”
At the thought that Yan Nuo and Ji Yinbing still did not have a child, Fang Yusheng did not continue arguing.
Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng had the same thought. She endured it and finally asked Ji Yinbing, “Yinbing, is your research effective?”
Ji Yinbing said, “I’m not involved in that research anymore.”
“Huh?” Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng were surprised and asked her, “Why?”
Ji Yinbing’s tone was quite calm. She said, “I want a child too much. After experiencing anticipation and disappointment time and time again, I’m not in a good state and am not suitable to continue that research. I took the initiative to apply for leave.”
After a moment of silence, Fang Yusheng said, “That’s good too.”
“Yeah.”
