Chapter 255: Qiao Jiuyin’s Ending
Second Sister and Fang Mu had broken up…
Third Sister and Fang Mu’s brother led a blissful life, being a loving couple…
Second Sister and her ex-husband came together to kidnap Third Sister again. In the end, not only did they fail to accomplish their goal, they even got themselves in trouble in the process…
Who is right and who is wrong?
Qiao Sen’s grandfather was about to lose his temper, and his two sisters were putting on a big show that even a scriptwriter did not dare to write. Qiao Sen instantly felt his head swell.
In the ward, Qiao Jiusheng only cared about eating her noodles with her head lowered. She did not know that the head of her household was so worried that his head hurt.
Fang Yusheng’s instant noodles were especially delicious. Perhaps, this had something to do with their surnames.
Qiao Jiusheng only took one bite before giving Fang Yusheng a thumbs up. “It tastes very delicious, old slut.” She could not tell that he had the potential to be a chef.
Fang Yusheng could not help but curl his right index finger and knock Qiao Jiusheng’s head gently, correcting her nickname. “Change the slut to husband.”
Husband…
Qiao Jiusheng continued to shout, “Old slut.” She just did not call him hubby.
Fang Yusheng did not insist on correcting her. Forget it, she can call me whatever she wants. As long as I’m not her ex-husband, anything else is fine. Sitting at the end of the bed, Fang Yusheng seemingly unintentionally said, “When I came, I met your big brother at the entrance of the hospital.”
Qiao Jiusheng stopped eating and looked up at Fang Yusheng’s face. She asked him, “What did Boss tell you?”
“He didn’t say anything.” After saying that, Fang Yusheng thought of something and couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh. He said, “If I had two sisters like you, I probably only want to die.” As the saying goes, an elder brother was like a father. Qiao Sen must be having a headache.
Fang Yusheng pitied Qiao Sen.
Qiao Jiusheng pursed her lips and did not reply.
She only felt full after eating the noodles.
Touching her stomach, Qiao Jiusheng said to the two little fellows inside her, “Your father made this. If you like it, ask your father to make more delicious food in the future.” Then, she glanced at Fang Yusheng and said with a smile, “Yusheng, learn to cook in the future. Your children like what you make very much.”
Fang Yusheng: “…”
Please don’t like my cooking. Thank you!
Fang Yusheng stood up and packed his lunch box while saying to Qiao Jiusheng, “What do you plan to do with Qiao Jiuyin?”
Qiao Jiusheng did not show any hesitation. Her attitude was straightforward as she said in a cold-blooded tone, “Give her up to the police and let her sit in prison.”
Fang Yusheng faintly smiled.
Excellent, determined to not be soft-hearted toward your enemies.
Fang Yusheng loved women like this.
“What if your brother pleaded on her behalf?” he casually asked.
Qiao Jiusheng sneered. “Beg for her?” She asked, “Then who will pay for the pain I’ve suffered?” Leaning on the pillow, Qiao Jiusheng looked at the drizzle outside. Her memories drifted back to the day she was reborn.
She had woken up and realized that she was sitting in the car. The rain outside the window was very heavy. She had stared at Qiao Jiuyin’s young face and fell in a daze. For a moment, she had been unable to tell whether the miserable experience of her previous life was a dream or a real experience.
In the end, before she could figure everything out, Qiao Jiuyin had tried to kill her.
After two lifetimes of experience, Qiao Jiusheng was no longer the pampered and foolish girl she used to be.
“After the accident, why did I look for you to seek protection rather than return to Junyang City to look for Boss?” Qiao Jiusheng hooked up a cold smile. “It was because I don’t want Boss to be in trouble. Both Qiao Jiuyin and I are his sisters. Boss would’ve been very disappointed when he found out what Qiao Jiuyin had done. But other than that, what else could he do for me?
“Help me deal with Qiao Jiuyin? Forget it. To him, both of us are important. At most, he will call Qiao Jiuyin back and discipline her.
“But this is not the outcome I want.” Qiao Jiusheng’s face turned completely cold. Seeing Fang Yusheng look at her, Qiao Jiusheng did not hide her hatred and hatred for Qiao Jiuyin. “I want her to go to hell. I want her to taste all the pain I’ve suffered in the past. And my brother can’t help me take revenge.”
Qiao Jiusheng looked up and met Fang Yusheng’s calm gaze. She said, “Only you can let me live and let me take revenge.”
Fang Yusheng chuckled and jokingly said to Qiao Jiusheng, “Then I’m really glad that I still have value to you.” If she had not come to find him, he would’ve missed her again.
Fang Yusheng was suddenly stunned.
Missed her again?
He was a little confused. Why did I have to use the word again?
On one hand, Fang Yusheng felt that he might have forgotten something, but on the other, he was extremely convinced that there was nothing wrong with his memory. He stared at Qiao Jiusheng with a strange expression.
Qiao Jiusheng put down the pillow and planned to lie down for a while. Fang Yusheng quickly glanced outside the ward before taking the lunch box to wash up.
Qiao Sen had been standing outside the door for a long time.
When he had arrived at the door, he happened to hear Fang Yusheng ask Qiao Jiusheng what she planned to do with Qiao Jiuyin.
Qiao Sen had subconsciously stopped in his tracks.
He had eavesdropped on them just now.
Qiao Sen’s hand loosened and tightened around the doorknob before he let go again. This repeated a few times before he finally lowered his hand.
Yes, he was here to plead for Ah Yin. Who should buy the pain and blood that Xiao Sheng has suffered this year?
Ah Yin has done something wrong. It’s time to pay the price.
Every ward in the hospital had a square glass entrance. Fang Yusheng saw a black shadow flash past the entrance and knew that Qiao Sen had left.
In fact, Fang Yusheng had long known that Qiao Sen was standing outside the door. He had deliberately asked Qiao Jiusheng that question because he wanted Qiao Sen to hear Qiao Jiusheng’s true thoughts. This way, he could avoid Qiao Sen finding Qiao Jiusheng to plead for Qiao Jiuyin.
Qiao Jiusheng was soft-hearted by nature. It would be terrible if she agreed to Qiao Sen’s request in a moment of soft-heartedness.
Fang Yusheng wanted to cut off all paths of retreat for Qiao Jiuyin.
That night, Qiao Sen came to visit Qiao Jiusheng.
The siblings met again but were speechless. Both of them felt heavy-hearted.
Qiao Sen had many questions to ask Qiao Jiusheng. He wanted to give her a late hug; he wanted to apologize to her. However, for a moment, he could not calm down or say anything. Qiao Jiusheng looked at him and was silent for a long time. The corners of her lips curled up.
“Boss.” Qiao Jiusheng was still that Qiao Jiusheng, but she was not the Qiao Jiusheng that Qiao Sen knew.
Qiao Sen felt that the Xiao Sheng in front of him seemed to have become exceptionally old.
Although she looked young, the flesh and bones under her skin had already turned old.
Qiao Sen frowned, unwilling to look at Qiao Jiusheng like this.
“It has been hard on you for the past year.” After saying that, Qiao Sen deeply sighed. “I’m sorry that Big Brother did not recognize you immediately.” When Qiao Sen recalled that he had not recognized Qiao Jiusheng despite meeting her a few times, he felt guilty.
Qiao Jiusheng did not mind it. She shook her head and calmly smiled, even counseling him. “After all, my appearance was different during those times. Even if you had sensed something, you wouldn’t have thought too deeply about it.”
Qiao Sen did not argue.
After this exchange, the two of them fell silent again.
A while passed, and Qiao Sen took the initiative to find a topic.
He looked at Qiao Jiusheng’s stomach and said, “Before Grandpa fell ill, Ah Qing showed him two ultrasound pictures of the babies.” Qiao Sen suddenly frowned. He could not help but ask Qiao Jiusheng, “Did your sister-in-law know about this long ago?”
Previously, Qiao Sen did not think that there was anything wrong. But when they had talked about the ultrasound, he had realized Ji Qing’s abnormality.
Ji Qing had never been a busybody. If she did not know that Qi Yunsheng was Qiao Jiusheng, she would not have brought her ultrasound back for her family to see, much less promise to lend Qiao Jiusheng “Crown for love.”
Qiao Jiusheng laughed and said, “Even the big tiger has times when it’s not fierce.”
Qiao Sen looked a little embarrassed.
However, this mention of “big tiger” completely dispelled the alienation that had lasted for more than a year.
Qiao Sen pretended to be cold and reprimanded Qiao Jiusheng. “Call me Big Brother. Don’t call me Big Tiger. Respect the old and love the young. Where are you studying?”
Qiao Jiusheng stubbornly insisted on calling him, “Big Tiger.”
Qiao Sen was silent for two seconds before expressionlessly replying, “Third Dog!”
“Big Tiger!”
“Third Dog!”
“Brother.” Qiao Jiusheng suddenly changed her words.
Qiao Sen was surprised.
Qiao Jiusheng rarely called him Brother in a serious manner, so he was a little flattered. At the same time, he could hear the determination in Qiao Jiusheng’s voice when she called him Brother. His expression darkened a little. As he had expected, he heard Qiao Jiusheng say, “Brother, I know what you want to say. You haven’t experienced all that I’ve suffered, so you’re not qualified to ask me to forgive Qiao Jiuyin.”
A ruthlessness appeared on Qiao Jiusheng’s beautiful and charming face; Qiao Sen had never seen it before. “The grudge between her and me has reached an irreversible stage. Either I die, or she goes to prison.”
Qiao Sen’s mouth was filled with bitterness.
“Is there really no way to resolve this?”
Qiao Jiusheng did not say anything, but the determination in her eyes told Qiao Sen the answer.
Qiao Sen’s eyes darkened, and his heart ached.
“Our parents died young, and grandfather doesn’t have much time left. Soon, I’ll only have you and Ah Yin as my family. If you marry into Binjiang City, and Ah Yin… goes to prison, our family will be broken up.” They said that elder brothers were like fathers, and Qiao Sen had suffered a lot over the years.
He had been 24 years old when the Meng Hai incident had happened.
His heart had ached too, but what could he do?
He had to shoulder everything.
Just because he was their big brother.
As he was the eldest brother, he could not cry. If he cried, what would happen to his two younger sisters? Not only could he not cry, but he also had to pretend like nothing had happened in front of Second Sister. He had to speak gently in front of Third Sister, afraid that he would say something harsh or wrong and agitate her.
It was not easy for anyone.
Qiao Jiuyin only saw that her family was unfair to her, but she did not see Qiao Sen bitterly holding on. She did not notice Qiao Jiusheng’s haggard and thin body after returning from the violent sea, as well as her ear-piercing scream whenever she woke up in the middle of the night.
Qiao Jiusheng’s heart ached at Qiao Sen’s words.
But so what?
“Brother, no matter what, I will always be your sister.” Qiao Jiusheng touched her stomach and said, “I’m tired. I have to sleep. Brother, go busy yourself too.”
This was an order to chase him out.
Qiao Sen sighed, slowly stood up, and left the ward.
When he left, Qiao Jiusheng opened her eyes. She looked out of the window at the dark night stained with neon lights and felt her heart ache.
This family is indeed broken.
Big Tiger, Second Black, and Third Dog can no longer form a triangle.
Qiao Sen left Qiao Jiusheng’s ward and went to the ophthalmology hospital building. He stood at the door of the ward and looked at Qiao Jiuyin, who had just fallen asleep after losing her temper in the ward. He did not push the door open and enter. Qiao Jiuyin still could not accept the fact that she was blind.
She smashed things when she woke up. She kept smashing things.
Qiao Sen sadly turned around and saw Ji Qing walking over.
“Ah Qing…” This was the first time Qiao Sen felt so tired.
Ji Qing held his hand and brought him out of the hospitalization department. The two of them got into the car. Ji Qing leaned back against the car seat and let Qiao Sen lie on her thigh. Qiao Sen looked at the blurry car lights. Ji Qing’s gentle voice rang in his ears. She kept whispering into his ear, “Qiao Sen, you’re tired. You need to rest.”
Gradually, Qiao Sen fell asleep.
Seeing that he was asleep, Ji Qing caressed Qiao Sen’s tightly furrowed eyebrows with heartache.
***
Qiao Jiuyin woke up again. Her vision was still dark.
She could not see anything, nor did she know whether it was day or night.
The door seemed to be pushed open, and a few people walked in.
Qiao Jiuyin was trying to figure out the identities of these people when she heard a cold and stern man’s voice say to her, “Miss Qiao Jiuyin, after an investigation, we’ve determined that you’re suspected of planning to participate in three corpse robberies, an attempted murder, and a murder.”
She had committed the first instance of corpse robbery in March of last year, and the other two were five days ago.
Attempted murder referred to deliberately creating an accident and attempting to kill Qiao Jiusheng. Although Qiao Jiuyin did not succeed, the incident had left Qiao Jiusheng seriously injured.
The murder was held in the delivery room of the hospital. They had deliberately given up on resuscitating a live infant.
The police read the details of the case and said to Qiao Jiuyin, “As the suspect has yet to recover, the arrest date will be pushed back by 20 days. During this period, Comrade Xing Fei from my bureau will be responsible for supervising the suspect. I hope the suspect will cooperate with our work…”
Qiao Jiuyin sat on the bed in a daze. When she heard the police leave in a hurry, she looked like she had lost her soul.
