Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

Chapter 259: Settling Down

Qiao Jiusheng had been very busy these few days; she had not gotten the chance to rest well. She took a shower, but did not even want to blow her hair. She just turned around to sleep.

Fang Yusheng pulled her up and blow-dried her hair.

Qiao Jiusheng lay on Fang Yusheng’s legs and felt sleepy.

After drying Qiao Jiusheng’s hair, Fang Yusheng picked up her right hand and played with it. Qiao Jiusheng allowed him to play with her. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly felt a chill on her wrist. Qiao Jiusheng looked up in surprise and saw a rose-gold diamond lady’s watch on her wrist. The strap was wine-red, and the watch was embedded with small diamonds.

In the past, whenever Qiao Jiusheng saw this watch, only one thought would come to her mind—It looks good.

Ever since she got together with Fang Yusheng, whenever Qiao Jiusheng looked at this watch again, only one word appeared in her mind—expensive!

“Did you take the wrong medicine?” He had actually bought her such luxurious things.

Fang Yusheng pursed his lips and darkly said, “Yeah, I bought it with a loan and even paid in installments.”

Seeing him get angry, Qiao Jiusheng quickly smoothed his fur. “It’s very nice. I like it very much. You’re so considerate.” Seeing that Fang Yusheng’s expression had not completely cleared up, Qiao Jiusheng continued, “You’re the best to me. I like you very much.”

Upon hearing this, Young Master Fang finally felt relieved.

He looked down at the watch on Qiao Jiusheng’s wrist and suddenly said, “Happy birthday! You’re 25 years old now!” He had made her become a mother at the age of 25. Fang Yusheng felt a sense of achievement. Last year at the Mid-Autumn Festival, he and she were still husband and wife. He had brought Qiao Jiusheng to the main building and showed off his love in front of Fang Mu and Qiao Jiuyin, but he did not celebrate her birthday.

This year, Fang Yusheng had reserved this watch and wanted to give it to her as a birthday gift. Due to the Old Master’s passing, Qiao Jiusheng got so busy that she forgot her birthday, but Fang Yusheng did not.

Qiao Jiusheng was stunned.

It was only then she remembered that today was her birthday.

“Thank you!”

She turned around and hugged Fang Yusheng’s waist. Taking a deep breath in his abdomen, she softly said, “I really like it.”

Fang Yusheng touched her hair and suddenly asked, “Where’s my watch?”

“What watch?” Qiao Jiusheng looked up at him in confusion.

Fang Yusheng had to remind her. “You’ve kept that watch for ten years.”

Qiao Jiusheng then remembered what she had promised Fang Yusheng.

His memory is really good.

Qiao Jiusheng got up from the bed and left the room to go to her collection room. This collection room was her gaming room when she was young. When she grew up, it was changed to a collection room. Fang Yusheng followed her and saw her take out a velvet box from an ivory white cabinet.

She walked to Fang Yusheng with the velvet box and handed it to him. “Here.”

Fang Yusheng took the box and opened it!

A man’s mechanical watch was placed on the velvet surface inside the box.

The bottom of the watch was starry blue with a flying horse on it. The watch was a pure black leather watch, but there were two light scratches on it.

Fang Yusheng gently touched the watch with a reminiscent look. He took off his wrist watch on the spot and handed the blue watch to Qiao Jiusheng, telling her, “Put it on for me.”

Qiao Jiusheng took the watch and put it on Fang Yusheng.

The watch strap was neither long nor short. It was just nice.

“Huh?” Qiao Jiusheng was quite surprised. “It’s quite suitable for your wrist size.”

Fang Yusheng smiled and nodded.

Picking up his hand, Qiao Jiusheng touched the watch and said, “There’s a very small word carved on the back of this watch. It’s an A.” Qiao Jiusheng revealed a puzzled expression. She said with that puzzled expression, “That’s strange. Where did this watch come from? What does the A represent?”

Qiao Jiusheng felt that she might have forgotten something.

When she was at home, she would often stare at this watch in a daze.

She could not pick up such an expensive watch. Someone must have given it to her.

Who sent it?

Qiao Jiusheng’s head hurt when she seriously thought about it.

Fang Yusheng was afraid that she would remember those events, so he quickly interrupted her memories. “Stop thinking. We should go to sleep.”

“Okay.”

Being hugged by Fang Yusheng, Qiao Jiusheng fell asleep within a while.

Perhaps because she was thinking about the origins of that watch, Qiao Jiusheng was not in a deep sleep. She seemed to have had a dream that her young self had reached out to someone and said, “Give me a token of love. I’ve given you my phone.”

Then, it seemed like someone handed her a watch.

A deep and cold voice resounded in her ear. The person said, “This is the only thing I have on me. It has the first letter of my name on it. Take good care of it. If you lose it, I won’t marry you.”

Qiao Jiusheng suddenly woke up. She looked into the darkness and heard Fang Yusheng’s breathing.

Lover…

Qiao Jiusheng was a little guilty and did not dare to face Fang Yusheng.

What should I do? It seems that before even meeting Fang Mu, I pledged my life to someone else…

If Fang Yusheng knew about this, would he find trouble with me?

Qiao Jiusheng violently shook her head and hypnotized herself to fall asleep faster. After waking up, she would forget about this matter. Anyway, if she did not say it, Fang Yusheng would not know.

Besides, she was already married and was about to become a mother. What was the use of reminiscing about her first love?

***

The couple planned to return to Binjiang City today.

After washing up, Qiao Jiusheng planned to go downstairs for breakfast. Fang Yusheng suddenly grabbed her hand and told her, “Let’s go down later. I have something to tell you.”

Qiao Jiusheng stopped and looked at him.

Fang Yusheng leaned against the door and looked at her. He said, “I might be in danger during these two days.”

When Qiao Jiusheng heard this, her expression immediately turned serious.

“How did you know?” After she asked, she thought of Fang Mu and asked Fang Yusheng, “Did Fang Mu make a move?”

Fang Yusheng did not affirm or deny.

Qiao Jiusheng subconsciously held his arm and softly asked, “What does he plan to do to you? Did you find anything?”

“He wants to kill me.” A calm smile hung on Fang Yusheng’s lips as he discussed his life with Qiao Jiusheng. “He found a powerful assassin. This time, he wants to kill me.”

“How did you know?” Qiao Jiusheng was surprised.?Shouldn’t finding a killer be a very secretive matter?

Fang Yusheng mysteriously smiled. “Ah Sheng, no matter what happens to me these few days, don’t worry!”

How could Qiao Jiusheng not be worried?

She was starting to panic.

“Fang Yusheng, don’t scare me. Just tell me what would happen and prepare me mentally. If you don’t tell me clearly, I’ll think too much.”

“If I say that I know Fang Mu’s every move like the back of my hand and have already thought of a countermeasure, would you believe me?” Fang Yusheng asked her.

Qiao Jiusheng was stunned, then nodded. “Yes.”

“That’s good.” Fang Yusheng hugged Qiao Jiusheng and placed his chin on her head. He rubbed it and said softly, “Ah Sheng, believe in your man.”

Qiao Jiusheng was still not confident. She told herself that she had to believe Fang Yusheng.

“Okay.”

Recalling what Fang Yusheng had said, Qiao Jiusheng was a little absent-minded while eating breakfast.

Qiao Sen thought that she was upset about their grandfather’s death, so he comforted her. “One has to leave when one’s old. Xiao Sheng, think positively.”

Qiao Jiusheng frantically nodded. After dinner, she went to the airport with Fang Yusheng.

On the way to the airport, Qiao Jiusheng kept her body tensed up, wondering if there would be an accident on the way to the airport. In her previous life, Qiao Jiuyin and the children had died on the way to the airport. Would the killer Fang Mu found explode their car midway?

Finally, when they reached the airport, Qiao Jiusheng heaved a sigh of relief.

After waiting for a while at the airport, the couple boarded the plane with Qi Bufan.

When Qi Bufan received the first-class ticket, he was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. “Sir…” Qi Bufan held the first-class ticket and incoherently spoke in excitement.

Fang Yusheng sneered and glanced at him. He sarcastically said, “Didn’t you say that you haven’t seen the blue sky and white clouds? Here! Today, I’ll let you sit in first class and look at the blue sky and white clouds. I’ll let you see whether I’ll go bankrupt or die or I show you the blue sky and white clouds.”

Qi Bufan: “…”

He hooked his head and followed the couple onto the plane.

As soon as he sat down, Qi Bufan could not help but sigh. This first class cabin was indeed better than economy class.

After getting on the plane, Qiao Jiusheng started to feel uneasy again. When the plane took off, she couldn’t help but hold Fang Yusheng’s hand and worriedly ask, “Yusheng, do you think that assassin will create an accident on the plane? Will he let us play with explosions high up in the sky?”

Fang Yusheng knocked her head. “Sleep!” If he had known that she would be so nervous, he wouldn’t have told her.

Qiao Jiusheng calmed down after being hit.

“That’s true. Fang Mu doesn’t have the guts.” There were hundreds of people here. No matter how ruthless Fang Mu was, he wouldn’t dare to take the lives of hundreds of people.

Qi Bufan opened his eyes and looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, thinking that the money was first-class

After getting off the plane, Qiao Jiusheng was completely relieved.

On the way back, she placed Fang Yusheng’s hand on her abdomen and said to him, “Feel it. The children moved just now.”

Fang Yusheng’s expression froze.

“They… they moved?” His hand was pressed against Qiao Jiusheng’s abdomen. He was so careful that he did not even dare to breathe heavily as if he were afraid of disturbing the two children inside.

Qiao Jiusheng nodded. “I felt it on the plane. They moved very gently.”

Fang Yusheng waited for nearly five minutes, but the two children did not react at all.

Feeling a little disappointed, he withdrew his hand and said to Qiao Jiusheng, “They might not like me.”

Qiao Jiusheng laughed.

Qi Bufan, however, complained in his heart:?It’s because you’re too stingy. They don’t like you. They like that you have no sugar.

This time, when Qiao Jiusheng returned to the Fang family, everyone looked at her differently.

It turned out that the Eldest Young Mistress they had talked about countless times in private was actually the real Second Young Mistress of the Qiao family. Originally, she was going to marry Second Young Master, but now, she was the Eldest Young Mistress. This change was unacceptable and felt ridiculous. However, she also sighed.

When Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Mu were in a relationship, Fang Mu had never brought her to the Fang family, so Qiao Jiusheng had never seen the Fang family’s eldest son, Fang Yusheng. However, she had seen Xu Pingfei a few times during banquets and cocktail parties.

This time, when Xu Pingfei faced her after returning, she had a quite awkward expression. She opened her mouth, but she did not know what to call Qiao Jiusheng.

Yunsheng?

Or Jiusheng?

Seeing her dilemma, Qiao Jiusheng considerately said, “Aunt Xu, call me Xiao Sheng.”

Seeing that Qiao Jiusheng’s attitude was normal, Xu Pingfei thought that she was too shy to tell the truth.

“Xiao Sheng.” Xu Pingfei shouted and consoled her. The general idea was that Qiao Jiusheng had suffered. Now that the suffering was over, she wanted to live a good life with Fang Yusheng. So, Xu Pingfei counseled her and said that the Old Master had been ill for many years and that it was a relief for him to be gone.

When Qiao Jiusheng heard this, she felt very satisfied. “Thank you, Aunt Xu.”

Xu Pingfei, this stepmother, was different from ordinary people. Qiao Jiusheng had always had a good impression of Xu Pingfei.

“Are the children okay?” Too many things had happened to Qiao Jiusheng recently. Xu Pingfei had been missing her and the children; she had even called Qiao Jiusheng several times to show her concern. Qiao Jiusheng touched her stomach and said, “I felt the children move today. I’ll go for a prenatal checkup with Yusheng tomorrow.”

“Alright.” Xu Pingfei asked, “Do you need me to accompany you?”

Qiao Jiusheng shook her head and rejected her. “Don’t worry, Aunt Xu. Stay at home and accompany Dad more. Yusheng will accompany me.”

“That works too.”

The next day, Qiao Jiusheng did not eat breakfast. She wore a loose dress and flat shoes, took all the reports, and went for a prenatal checkup with Fang Yusheng.

Originally, Qiao Jiusheng wanted Qi Bufan to send them there, but Fang Yusheng rejected her for some reason. “Just let the chauffeur send us there. Bufan has other matters to attend to today.” Seeing that Fang Yusheng had said so, Qiao Jiusheng did not insist.

The two of them sat in the backseat. Fang Yusheng had been holding Qiao Jiusheng’s hand the entire time as if he had something on his mind.

When they arrived at the hospital, Qiao Jiusheng did a routine checkup with the doctor before paying the bill. She underwent a pregnant Tang Sieve checkup. When her blood was drawn, Fang Yusheng quickly held her arm down. After pressing it for a while, Qiao Jiusheng said, “I want to go to the toilet.”

Fang Yusheng nodded and helped her carry the things.

After going to the toilet, Qiao Jiusheng went to do an ultrasound with Fang Yusheng.
