Chapter 332 - He Loves Everything About Her
Chapter 332: He Loves Everything About Her
In the end, Qiao Jiusheng changed into a light coordinated set. She wore a long-sleeved white shirt paired with a floral dress and a pair of pink-gray high heels. She also let down her hair.
Qiao Jiusheng looked beautiful.
Her beauty was not the typical moving beauty of a daughter. She was neither weak nor unladylike, and she had a slight offensive power. However, Fang Yusheng was satisfied with her look.
When Qiao Jiusheng changed and went downstairs, Fang Yusheng stared at her a few more times.
In the past, Qiao Jiusheng used to be beautiful in such clothes, but she looked beautiful, fierce, and aggressive. Among the crowd, she was the most eye-catching one. Now, probably because she was a mother, her eyes were less fierce and sly; they were gentler.
It had to be said that Qiao Jiusheng, who was at a different stage, had a different beauty now.
However, she looked like Fang Yusheng loved her.
“Let’s go.”
In the past, when the two of them went out, they could just bring their wallets, car keys, and each other. Now, they had to bring two burdens. Fang Yusheng kindly invited Qi Bufan to go out with the kids. The corners of Qi Bufan’s mouth twitched. If you want me to take care of the children, just say it!
The couple sat in the back row, holding the child in each hand.
Qi Bufan was driving in the front row.
When the car passed by the Fang family’s main building, Qi Bufan suddenly slowed down. He saw the child playing in the space in front of him and suddenly said, “Young Master Fang Shan is in front.”
Fang Shan was already more than a year old and could steadily walk. Occasionally, he could run a few steps, but he was not eloquent. The kid could almost say short sentences, but he could not express anything clearly with long sentences.
Qiao Jiusheng rolled down the window and met an innocent and cute face.
She looked at this child with a complicated expression.
Now that she was a mother, she was even more unable to understand Qiao Jiuyin’s actions. How ruthless could a person be to abandon her child? The child in front of her was only a year older than her children, but he had lost his parents…
“Bufan, stop the car.”
Qi Bufan parked the car.
Fang Yusheng watched Qiao Jiusheng carry the child out of the car. He frowned but did not stop her.
The moment Qiao Jiusheng got out of the car, Fang Shan walked toward her. However, he restrained himself and stopped two steps away from Qiao Jiusheng. “Auntie, Auntie.” Fang Shan liked Qiao Jiusheng very much for no reason. He wanted to get close to her but was a little afraid.
Children were sensitive. He could feel who liked him and who did not.
Although he did not know much, he knew that Big Aunt did not seem very happy every time she saw him.
Qiao Jiusheng actually squatted in front of the kid this time. A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face. She even nodded at Fang Shan and asked him, “Shan Shan, do you want to go out with us?”
Fang Shan’s eyes lit up.
Every time he went out, he would follow his grandparents.
He had never gone out with Big Aunt before. He was especially excited and wanted to go. He quickly nodded and said, “Sure, sure!”
Hence, Fang Shan sat between Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng.
Xu Pingfie had been watching the situation from the moment Qiao Jiusheng’s car stopped at the entrance of the main building. She walked to the door and leaned against it, watching Qiao Jiusheng’s and Fang Shan’s every move without batting an eyelid. When she saw that Qiao Jiusheng had invited Fang Shan to play with them, emotions surged in her heart, and her eyes turned red.
Fang Pingjue supported himself with his walking stick and walked to her side. After watching the car leave the Fang family, he said, “Shan Shan likes his aunt quite a lot.”
Xu Pingfei gently wiped her eyes and said, “After all, she’s the person who’s the most similar to his biological mother in this world.” It was only natural that Fang Shan liked Qiao Jiusheng.
When Xu Pingfei thought that Qiao Jiusheng’s attitude toward Fang Shan was also slowly turning for the better, she felt relieved. “This is good, good.”
Fang Pingjue also nodded. “Yes, it’s not bad.”

The Cayenne SUV slowly drove through the crowded streets.
At this moment, the office workers had already gotten off work. There were inevitably more cars on the road, so Qi Bufan drove slower.
In the aluminum white car, the back row was not particularly wide. Fang Shan sat between Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng, the two adults. He was a little uneasy. The child was a little shy, so he kept her head lowered and played with his little fingers.
His uncle, Fang Yusheng, was very handsome. He did not talk much, but Fang Shan was a little afraid of him.
Fang Shan’s small face was wooden, but he was thinking: Why aren’t we there yet? How long do I have to sit beside Uncle for…
When Fang Yusheng faced Fang Shan, his mood was quite complicated. After all, in his previous life, this child had died in his hands. In this life, as long as this child did not become a demon, he would not do anything to him. Fang Yusheng found it funny when he realized that Fang Shan was sitting upright with his head lowered the entire time. His eyes were probably staring at his toes and did not dare to move.
“Afraid of me?”
Fang Yusheng’s sudden voice surprised everyone in the car.
Qiao Jiusheng had thought that Fang Yusheng would choose to ignore Fang Shan.
Fang Shan did not seem to have guessed that his uncle would talk to him. He fell silent and did not hear anyone else in the car. Only then did he dare to believe that his uncle was talking to him.
Fang Yusheng saw that Fang Shan’s body stiffened when he heard his voice; he found it even funnier. “I don’t eat people. Why are you so afraid of me?”
He did not know if Fang Shan understood his words. Anyway, Fang Shan lowered his head and played with his fingers for a while. Then, he asked very softly, “Uncle, Uncle, do you not like me…?”
Fang Yusheng was stunned.
Qiao Jiusheng also looked down at the child in surprise.
Who would have thought that a child not even eighteen months old would be so sensitive?
Fang Yusheng hugged Iron Egg Fang. Upon hearing this, he freed one hand and tousled Fang Shan’s soft hair. He said to him, “As long as you’re obedient and don’t bully your brothers, I’ll like you.” Fang Yusheng did not expect Fang Shan to understand his words.
However, Fang Shan thought about it and said, “Love… Love my brothers…”
Qiao Jiusheng’s nose suddenly felt sour.
If not for Qiao Jiuyin being too evil, she would’ve liked Fang Shan very much.
Fang Shan was really good.
He should not be blamed for what his parents had done. Fang Zikai, who was in her arms, started to rub against her chest. He was probably hungry. Qiao Jiusheng looked at her child. When her child was hungry, he could ask his mother for milk. When he was cold, his parents would add clothes for him.
Therefore, when she thought that the child beside her had no parents, she felt even more upset.
All of this could not be said to be right or wrong. It could only be said that it was fate.
“Shan Shan.”
Hearing Big Aunt calling him, Fang Shan immediately looked up and tilted his head to look at her.
Qiao Jiusheng lowered her head and looked at him. She said, “Come to our house often in the future.”
Fang Shan got excited. “Really?”
“Yeah.”
Fang Shan spoke slowly again. He asked, “Can, can we move houses?” The child had probably heard from Xu Pingfei and the rest that Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng were moving to another house next month. He probably could not bear to leave and was too embarrassed to ask.
Qiao Jiusheng understood what Fang Shan meant. She smiled and reached out to touch his head. Then, she said, “Sure.”
Fang Shan smiled happily.
Fang Shan’s eyes looked very similar to his mother’s. With this smile, Fang Yusheng seemed to see the shrunken Qiao Jiusheng. Suddenly, he did not dislike Fang Shan so much anymore.
Finally, the car stopped.
The car stopped at a parking spot by the roadside. Everyone got out of the car, and the couple placed the two children in the pram. Fang Yusheng pushed the children while Qiao Jiusheng hugged Fang Shan. Qi Bufan followed them as a bodyguard.
There was still some distance between the parking lot and the dining room.
As they walked over, they passed by a children’s shop. The shop had toys and children’s clothes inside it.
Xu Pingfei had dressed Fang Shan very well, like a little prince. He was dressed in a short-sleeved shirt with suspenders and a small bow around his neck. Qiao Jiusheng looked at the child in her arms and saw that Fang Shan was looking at the shop by the roadside. She asked him, “Shall we go buy clothes for you?”
Fang Shan quickly nodded.
Qiao Jiusheng brought Fang Shan into the shop, and Fang Yusheng sat down on the bench outside the shop with Qi Bufan.
As soon as they sat down, the two children started moving around in the pram.
Fang Yusheng carried them up, one in each hand.
The two little fellows had been on the streets many times, but every time they came, they were extremely curious about the outside world. The two of them leaned on his shoulder and stared at the car and people, their eyes rolling around.
Qi Bufan looked at the two little fellows and suddenly sighed. “When I brought Chukong home, she was already nine.”
He was quite envious that Fang Yusheng could witness the children’s growth. Qi Bufan felt regretful that he had not participated in Dai Chukong’s childhood. “Mr. Fang, I really envy you for being able to watch the children grow up day by day. When our Chukong followed me, she was especially sensible. Sigh! I wonder what she was like when she was young.”
Fang Yusheng looked at him in confusion.
Qi Bufan was confused. He asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Fang Yusheng suddenly said, “Do you want to know how Dai Chukong looked like when she was young?”
Qi Bufan nodded.
“It’s simple.” Fang Yusheng’s lips curled up, and he seriously suggested to Qi Bufan, “Then in the future, you should raise Chukong’s child and you will know how she looked when she was young.”
After carefully thinking about this scene, Qi Bufan said, “I wonder whose family’s son Chukong will marry in the future. If her in-laws want to take care of the child, can I snatch my daughter’s children from them?”
Fang Yusheng was shocked by the word “daughter’s child.”
“Whether it’s your daughter’s child or yours, it’s hard to say now…”
