Chapter 159: You Are the Best Gift
Fang Yusheng generously nodded and naturally said to her. “We’re husband and wife. There’s no reason for us to sleep in separate rooms.” Since the password was changed, Qiao Jiusheng could forget about going in there to sleep again.
With one move, he had eliminated all future troubles. Fang Yusheng could finally be at ease.
As he walked to Qiao Jiusheng’s side, he considerately reminded her, “I’ve already moved your things back to our room.”
It did not matter if the password was changed. Anyway, Qiao Jiusheng did not plan to continue sleeping in a different room than him.
If this continued, it would be too unreasonable.
Occasionally being pretentious was fun, but treating it as a normal occurrence would be annoying.
Qiao Jiusheng carried her bag downstairs and planned to go out after eating. She remembered how she had borrowed twenty yuan from Wei Xin the last time. Coincidentally, Wei Xin had two hours of free time this morning. Therefore, Qiao Jiusheng planned to treat Wei Xin to a cup of coffee.
Qiao Jiusheng hung her bag on the floor-to-ceiling clothes rack by the door. Suddenly, she saw Aunt Jin enter the house while muttering something.
“What’s wrong, Aunt Jin?”
Aunt Jin smiled at Qiao Jiusheng, frowned, and confusedly asked, “Madam, did you hear any strange sounds last night?”
Qiao Jiusheng innocently shook her head.
She had really not heard it.
“That’s strange. I heard it several times. A girl kept begging for mercy.” Aunt Jin put on an apron with her chubby hands and puzzledly said, “I thought a girl was being bullied on the streets outside. I especially went out to take a look after making breakfast, but didn’t discover anything. I also asked the security guards at the entrance, but all of them said that they didn’t hear any abnormal movements.”
Aunt Jin entered the kitchen and placed the breakfast on the table. She muttered to herself in confusion, “Did I hear wrongly?”
Aunt Jin kept muttering to herself, not noticing that Qiao Jiusheng was blushing.
Qiao Jiusheng poured Fang Yusheng’s soy milk into the cup and lowered her head. She said in a low, muffled voice, “Then maybe, you really heard wrongly…”
“Perhaps!
“Sigh! Young Master Yusheng, Bufan, come and eat.” Aunt Jin snatched the spoon from Qiao Jiusheng’s hand and said, “Madam, sit too. I’ll scoop it.”
Qiao Jiusheng walked to the side and sat down. Aunt Jin then realized that Qiao Jiusheng’s face was a little red.
“Madam, are you feeling unwell? Do you have a fever? Your face is red.”
Qiao Jiusheng was speechless.
Fang Yusheng slowly walked over. He smiled at Aunt Jin and said, “It’s nothing. Ah Sheng is shy.”
“What are you embarrassed about?” Aunt Jin’s mind was filled with questions.
Qiao Jiusheng suddenly stood up and loudly said, “Fang Yusheng, I remember that there’s an empty room downstairs. It’s the one Bufan used to live in.” She looked at Qi Bufan behind Fang Yusheng and asked in exasperation, “Isn’t it, Bufan?”
Qi Bufan honestly nodded.
Fang Yusheng suddenly fell silent.
Yes, other than the guest room upstairs, there’s also an empty room downstairs.
Aunt Jin did not know the truth. So she innocently asked Qiao Jiusheng, “There is indeed a guest room. Madam, do you have friends who want to stay for a short time?”
Qiao Jiusheng’s answer was a little ambiguous. “That depends on Young Master Yusheng’s performance.”
Aunt Jin looked at Fang Yusheng, who was quietly sitting on the chair.
“Better eat.”
Fang Yusheng obediently sat on the chair and quietly ate. Even if Qiao Jiusheng tried to step on his feet under the table, he would not even dare to fart.
It was not worth angering Qiao Jiusheng for a moment of excitement.
After the meal, Qiao Jiusheng went to meet Wei Xin. The weather was warm, and it was time to grow melons and beans. Aunt Jin had already bought the seeds a long time ago. Today, the weather was good, and she planted the Four Seasons Beans in the courtyard.
Fang Yusheng collected the entire set of design drawings. He then called Yan Nuo to inform him to send someone and collect the design drawings.
Then, he put everything away and went downstairs to have a cup of water. He could vaguely hear Butler Wan Lang talking to Aunt Jin.
Fang Yusheng looked up.
More than ten years had passed. Butler Wan Lang, who had been a middle-aged man back then, had also turned white with age.
After Wan Lang left, Aunt Jin took off her shoes and changed into her slippers. When she saw Fang Yusheng standing by the window, she walked over and said to him, “Butler Wan just came.”
“What was he doing here?”
“Today is the 17th anniversary of the old gentleman’s death. Butler Wan came to inform you that everyone in the family is going to sweep the old gentleman’s grave in the afternoon. There will also be a gathering at night. He wants you and Madam to attend it.”
Fang Yusheng’s expression changed.
Grandpa…
Unknowingly, many years had passed since the old man who had protected him back then was gone. The old man’s heart had hurt, and he had suddenly passed away from a disease. When Fang Yusheng had received the call, he had immediately rushed back. However, by the time he reached home, the old man had already passed away.
Fang Yusheng had not gotten the chance to see the old man for the last time in his life, and that was one of his biggest regrets.
“Call and tell Madam to come back for lunch.”
“Okay.”
After Qiao Jiusheng and Wei Xin parted, Qiao Jiusheng returned to the house.
Dressed in a black suit, Fang Yusheng rested on the sofa. When he heard the footsteps, he moved his head a little. “You’re back?”
“Yeah.”
Qiao Jiusheng walked to Fang Yusheng’s side and asked him, “Do you have to bring anything with you when you visit the grave in the afternoon?” She was ready.
Fang Yusheng smiled and raised his right hand.
Qiao Jiusheng naturally extended her left hand.
Holding Qiao Jiusheng’s hand, Fang Yusheng said, “Bringing his granddaughter-in-law would be the best greeting gift.”
